Post-Apocalyptic: Unlimited Resources, Neighbor's Wife and Sister Beg for the Door to Open

Chapter 223 Martial Arts Can Lead to Divine Power, Innate One-Step Technique! (Please continue reading)
After Lu Zheng's dimensional space ability was improved, the number of dimensional channels that could be opened per cycle increased again, reaching ten times.

At the same time, the recovery time per session has been shortened from twelve hours to eight hours.

Being able to recover three shuttle attempts a day is already pretty good.

This is also the source of his confidence to boldly embark on exploring new worlds.

After sealing the girl who wanted to travel to the new world with him into a card and storing her inside his body, Lu Zheng opened a dimensional portal and entered the new world.

He appeared inside a small mountain.

The air is exceptionally fresh, not just because it's a primeval jungle, but because it contains active energy similar to that found in the black fog of an insectoid invasion.

Now that Lu Zheng's level is very high, his perception is very obvious.

He immediately realized that this world was definitely not simple.

Using a teleportation scroll, I was randomly teleported ten kilometers away, which brought me right to the outskirts of a small town.

With just one glance, Lu Zheng was certain that this was a world similar to an ancient society.

Soldiers were guarding the city gate, and there were many pedestrians coming and going.

Lu Zheng had excellent hearing; the conversations of these people were similar to classical Chinese, equivalent to a local dialect.

With his cognitive abilities, he basically grasped the language after listening for a few minutes.

There were many ancient costumes among the sealed cards. He randomly picked one to change into, and then used the power of the Transformation Fruit to grow long hair and make a bun.

In the blink of an eye, he transformed into the image of a refined gentleman from ancient times.

With a flash, he entered the city.

He didn't need to ask anything specifically; he just took a walk around the small town, and with his hearing and memory, he quickly pieced together the outline of this world.

Just as he was planning to capture someone to gain a more systematic understanding of the world, he heard a group of people fighting not far outside the city.

The conversation between the group piqued his interest, and he immediately appeared beside them in a flash.

"Li Beixuan, hand over the secret manual, and my Tianyong Manor will guarantee your survival."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than another person shouted:

"Tianyong Manor doesn't have the guts to go against all the gangs in the world."

"Li Beixuan, give me the secret manual, and I'll let you join the Drywood Cave and keep you safe."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by another group of people.

"None of these underworld forces offer any protection."

"Li Beixuan, give me the secret manual, and I'll let you join the Xuan Ce Army, write a report on your merits, and maybe even directly appoint you as a general!"

Li Beixuan looked at the more than one hundred people surrounding him. The three forces were all unwilling to give way, and each of them was someone he couldn't afford to offend.

Tianyong Manor and Kumu Cave are both top-tier forces in the martial arts world. Xuan Ce Army is the strongest army in the Jin Kingdom. General Dongfang Shence was a master of the Innate Realm thirty years ago and was renowned throughout the region.

He was just a minor fourth-rank martial artist, and he was only able to escape until now by relying on his lightness skill, which was comparable to that of a first-rank martial artist.

The lowest rank for a martial artist is the ninth rank, and the highest is the first rank. Above that is the Innate Grandmaster realm.

The secret manual in his hand was a cultivation technique that could truly enable a person to cultivate to the Innate Realm.

Moreover, it is rumored that regardless of aptitude, as long as one cultivates diligently and has sufficient resources, anyone can enter the Innate Realm through this method.

This is what sparked such a struggle among so many forces.

The three groups that came to hunt him down were all led by second-rank martial artists. No matter which side it was, he would surely die if a real battle broke out.

But he hadn't even glanced at the secret manual he had so painstakingly snatched before handing it over, which was really hard to accept.

"For example, if the three of you fight, I'll give it to whoever wins, how about that?"

Li Beixuan chuckled.

His plan was clear to all three parties: he simply wanted to see them fight to the death, resulting in mutual destruction.

Then, taking advantage of their confusion, they will escape. Cheng Yu, a lieutenant general of the Xuan Ce army, shouted:
"Li Beixuan, you'd better make a decision immediately, or we'll kill you first and then decide who gets the manual!"

The other two groups also used coercive language.

Just as Li Beixuan was hesitating, a voice came from behind him.

"What secret technique is it? Let me see it too."

Li Beixuan was startled and turned around to see a handsome man, who looked like a celestial being, standing behind him.

The others were also stunned and surprised, because they hadn't realized how this person had appeared in front of them.

Before Li Beixuan could speak, Lu Zheng grabbed his shoulder, activated a teleportation talisman, and disappeared instantly.

Cheng Yu and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. After searching the surrounding area for an hour without success, they had no choice but to report this bizarre incident back to their superiors.

When Li Beixuan regained his vision, he was shocked to find that he was standing on a cloud.

To be precise, it was standing on the back of an enormous golden eagle.

He decisively knelt down before Lu Zheng and kowtowed, saying:

"I am Li Beixuan, thank you for saving me, Immortal!"

Instead of explaining the misunderstanding, Lu Zheng said:

"This is my first time in this world. Tell me what you know."

"Little man obeys!"

Li Beixuan quickly explained everything to Lu Zheng, from the national level to the various factions within the martial arts world.

Lu Zheng also gained a clearer understanding.

This is the State of Jin, surrounded by three other states with shared civilizations: the States of Chu, Chen, and Yan. In addition, there are the Qiang people to the north, the Hu people to the west, the Man people to the south, and the Wa people to the east.

The reason they are referred to as 'people of what kind' is because they all come from different countries and are not a monolithic entity.

In short, this world is rife with chaos and war.

In this world, there are martial artists, the strongest being those above the Innate Realm and those at the Golden Core Realm of Martial Arts.

In every country, there are usually one or two people who can reach this level.

Having a martial arts master at the Golden Core stage is one of the unspoken rules for establishing a nation on the continent.

Seven years later, a martial arts master of the Golden Core stage in Jing Kingdom perished, and the kingdom was destroyed by the alliance of Jin and Chen. Later, Yan Kingdom also came up and divided up some of Jing Kingdom's land.

Because of the existence of martial artists, there are martial arts forces in every country.

Some forces were even able to influence the government and trigger wars.

Upon confirming the existence of martial arts, joy appeared in Lu Zheng's eyes.

Throughout history, whether in the apocalypse of the scorching summer or the apocalypse of the scorching Han dynasty, there has never been a method of cultivation in either world.

He relied on simply accumulating energy to increase his strength.

By continuously absorbing crystal nuclei and accumulating more energy, the goal is to achieve a qualitative change from a quantitative one.

Even the energy recovery process is completely passive.

There is only one reason for all of this.

He never truly grasped the source of his power.

In this world, regardless of combat strength, the ability to create something from nothing is a rare and precious thing.

Upon learning that Li Beixuan was a fourth-rank martial artist, considered a third-rate expert, Lu Zheng immediately had him begin explaining the knowledge of martial arts cultivation to him.

Li Beixuan tactfully handed over the newly acquired manual, "Innate One-Way Cultivation Technique," to Lu Zheng and used his limited knowledge to explain its contents to him.
