Imperial City Ruins, opportunities refreshed daily

Chapter 22 Oiran, Liu Shiniang
Xu Hao was excited for a moment, then he held his breath and concentrated again because he found that there was still some dragon blood remaining in his body.

These cannot be wasted.

Xu Hao began to practice the Taotie technique again, absorbing the remaining energy from the dragon's blood.

The third realm of the human stage is the bone refining realm, which is about strengthening muscles and bones.

It is also divided into three levels: steel bones, fire-refined gold bones, and ice-like jade bones.

These are actually three colors.

Cultivating the bones and muscles to black is the first level, and cultivating them to a fiery red is the second level of the Bone Refining Realm. As for the rumored jade-like color, it only appears once in a hundred years.

However, Xu Hao was not worried, because as long as he had enough resources, he believed that he could meet the conditions.

Xu Hao practiced for half an hour and finally stabilized his cultivation at the third level of the human stage, the Bone Refining Realm. However, it was still in its early stages and his progress was slow.

"It seems that some more earth-level opportunities will come!" Xu Hao rubbed his hands together, he glanced at the refresh points on the opportunity divination panel, and couldn't wait to go to the palace.

Xu Hao controlled his temper, stood up and began to practice the Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada.

Perhaps it was because the natural treasures he devoured and refined were too high-end, but Xu Hao found that his understanding had been greatly enhanced, combined with his physical knowledge from his previous life.

He practiced his eight-step technique to chase away cicadas, and he was like a fish in water.

In just one or two days, Xu Hao mastered the essentials.

Whoosh.

Xu Hao took a step and rushed out several meters.

"So fast!" Xu Hao turned his head to look at the distance he had crossed. He took out the imperial guard's long sword again, and then used the Soul-Breaking Sword while assisting with the Eight-Step Cicada Chasing Technique.

With the powerful strength, both the swordsmanship and the Eight Steps to Chasing the Cicada were combined by Xu Hao, forming a combat power that was greater than the sum of its parts.

The morning passed like this.

Xu Hao sweated all over after practicing.

He called a servant, fetched some water to wash up, had breakfast, said goodbye to Xu Qianzhi, and ran to the duty point on the Imperial Palace Avenue.

The road was smooth. When Xu Hao arrived at the duty point, others had not yet arrived to take over the shift, so he ran straight to the room and closed the door.

As a small flag, Xu Hao has such privileges.

Xu Hao rubbed his palms and directly opened the opportunity divination panel.

"I hope to get another Earth-level opportunity, no, two!" Xu Hao clicked refresh with an expectant look.

【Daily fortune telling.】

[After witnessing the might of the Great Xuan Dynasty, various factions, believing it still had strength to spare, chose to cease their activities, and the capital returned to a long-lost tranquility.]

The moment the introduction appeared, Xu Hao's expression was calm, but also revealed a hint of joy.

The Daxuan Dynasty is now in turmoil, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and a broken boat still has three pounds of nails.

Anyone who wants to swallow up the Great Xuan Dynasty in one breath will definitely break some teeth. It seems that with the "lesson learned" from the White Lotus Sect, other forces have chosen to wait and see.

This is good, Xu Hao can develop with peace of mind.

As Xu Hao looked at it, the signing positions began to appear on the virtual panel.

[Winning the lottery, safe and secure duty, peaceful and calm. Everything is stable, no worries, and the prize is five taels of silver, flat.]

[Auspicious sign. Tang Wan'er is examining the guards surrounding the palace. Observing their expressions can improve their relationship and perhaps earn a thank you! Good luck!]

[Due to low status and cultivation, only opportunities within the Earth Rank are displayed within the search range. Please improve your status and strength.]

Xu Hao glanced around and chose to frown.

No chance?

One of them won the lottery but it was mediocre, and the other one won the lottery but was just a bootlicker.

There is no need to choose mediocre.

And a good lottery? Xu Hao simply ignored it. He'd already traveled through time, and was he still trying to curry favor with people?

What's more, if he hadn't been alert, he would have been tricked by Tang Wan'er in an instant.

Let him try to please Tang Wan'er and only get a thank you?
With this much time and energy, Xu Hao might as well practice the Eight Steps to Chase Cicadas in the room.

"I made a mistake this time," Xu Hao sighed.

He should know that with his status, position and strength, he should not just search for opportunities in one place, but should walk around and look for treasures in other corners of the palace.

As a result, a mistake prevented him from getting any reward.

But Xu Hao soon calmed down.

No this time, I will try next time, but I can only refresh it once a day, so I can only wait until tomorrow!

Xu Hao closed the chance divination panel and began to practice the Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada in the small room.

The Eight-Step Chasing Cicada is based on one's own strength. The stronger the strength, the faster the speed.

Of course, the prerequisite for this is to thoroughly master the Eight-Step Chasing Cicada.

Xu Hao has only mastered some of the essentials now, and his body postures are not yet able to be controlled at will. He wants to not be bound by every move, but to be able to move his body as if it were his own arm.

While Xu Hao was practicing, Chen Changhe and others took turns on duty according to the time, but they did not disturb Xu Hao. Instead, they patrolled around diligently.

The duties of the guards are very easy, just wandering around, which doesn't take much energy at all.

Soon, it was time for the afternoon shift change.

"Knock knock knock!" There was a knock on the door outside the room.

"Who?" Xu Hao stopped.

"Brother Xu, it's time to take a rest!" Chen Changhe's voice came from outside the door.

Xu Hao put away the booklet of "Eight Steps to Chasing Cicadas", jumped to the door and opened it.

"Hey, Brother Xu, I'm sorry to bother you last night. Would you like to go listen to some opera tonight?" Chen Changhe started straight to the point.

"Go, seeing that you are praising her so much, I want to see what your so-called top courtesan is like!" Xu Hao did not refuse.

Without opportunity, you cannot practice the Taotie method, and you cannot compromise yourself.

We still have to go to this activity when it comes to criticizing the bad roots of feudal society.

What's more, several people praised her so much that it felt like a long time since they last saw her, which made Xu Hao curious about the so-called courtesan.

He had seen the beauty of the Ninth Princess Xuan Qingxiao, and he wanted to compare and see who was better.

"Let's go!" Chen Changhe immediately extended his hand to invite them and led the way.

The two soon arrived at the bank of the Black Water River.

The original friends were already waiting here.

When they saw Xu Hao coming, they immediately came forward and said, "Hey, Brother Xu, you won't go home until you're drunk today!"

"Except for the overnight fee, I'll pay for the rest!" A merchant's son immediately patted his chest.

"Then we'll have to give you a good meal!" Xu Hao laughed, and got on a small boat with everyone, then rowed across the river and came to a huge building opposite.

This building is built along the river and covers a large area.

It is surrounded by mountain walls and woods, and there are many carved stone statues in it, giving it a quiet and elegant temperament.

The boat arrived at the platform in front of the building and everyone rushed to get on the flower boat.

On the platform, the madam immediately came to greet them respectfully, "Gentlemen..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" The merchant's son who had previously offered to treat us immediately interrupted, "Give us a private room, we want to see Liu Shiniang!"

"Okay, this way please!" The madam said with a smile on her face.
