In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Another batch of dragon-seeking plates, and they were even distributed directly from the ghost market.

It's important to understand that the prices at the "ghost market" are not the actual market prices, especially now that the truth has been revealed; the prices of "dragon-seeking" plates have risen instead of fallen.

A single dragon-seeking plate is extremely rare in the ghost market, which is why Tianji Tower has become the best place to authenticate dragon-seeking plates.

Who can blame them when their mastermind is the one behind it all!

Moreover, the reputation of Tianji Tower, which has been established, is also the reason why people trust it.

"With the recent surge in popularity of Dragon Balls, the business of finding Dragon Balls has somewhat declined. However, prices are likely to reach new highs in the near future, so why not take advantage of this opportunity to make money!"

really!

The unscrupulous merchants used tricks to sell copper needles that were merely coated with a little copper powder for thousands of gold coins.

Moreover, on Ghost Street, who knows how high the prices are?

In the end, it all went into Zhang Xiaoshan's pocket.

This is not stolen goods; it's a transparent transaction involving real money. Zhang Xiaoshan won't leave this money stuck in the ghost market.

What's yours is yours, and most of the money left in Ghost Street is stolen goods.

Three days later, the Persian chief priests and their voyage team set off again.

Moreover, the number of merchant ships in the caravan increased from a dozen to thirty.

Ten of them were super-large Fujian ships built by the Zhang family themselves, each thirty zhang long and twelve zhang wide, large enough for horses to run on.

The central flagship was even more enormous, measuring fifty zhang in length and twenty zhang in width, with its keel made directly from ancient trees felled from the rainforests of Southeast Asia.

For security, Zhang Xiaoshan directly assigned the newly promoted top expert, Mad Lion Iron Warrior, to lead the team.

In addition to the three hundred guards of the Zhang family business, the Penglai Warriors, who had been abandoned, also invited over a thousand warriors to escort them.

Even after the difference between the Japanese ronin and the Bushido of Hourai was explained, King Baoshu paid no attention.

........ ......

Their information also revealed the situation of the Japanese samurai.

For years, ronin have been raiding the southeastern coast, and the Southern Shaolin Temple and the Zhang family have contributed greatly to this effort, making them mortal enemies.

The Bushido sect, which the Zhang family spent a fortune to hire as escorts, is similar to the orthodox sect.

There are many skilled warriors in the Central Plains, but they don't listen to you at all, and it's impossible for them to go to the Western Ocean with the fleet; that's wishful thinking.

These Japanese warriors are different; they can be bought off with a little bit of profit.

At this time, there was a clear surplus of samurai in Japan. Anyone who practiced with a sword for a few years could be considered a samurai, barely qualifying as a beginner in external martial arts.

Unlike the Central Plains, where the orthodox cultivation system requires at least ten years to complete a training course.

As for martial arts schools like those at the border of Japan, due to the high status of scholars, very few people were willing to endure the hardship of learning martial arts.

After all, ten years of hard study can lead to fame and recognition!

Practicing martial arts? These external styles of kung fu will at best make you a lackey of the rich, with absolutely no future.

In addition, a voyage to the West usually takes at least six months, and this time it will take a whole year, which is not something that just anyone can endure.

As the fleet set sail, Zhang Xiaoshan stood on the dock, lost in thought for a while.

This compromise by the Persian Catholic Church was largely due to the sudden change in the Holy Flame Order.

Otherwise, the strength of the Persian sect this time would be much greater, including a Black Mountain Envoy at the peak of martial arts, a Treasure Tree King at the level of a top expert, and countless hidden masters.

With such deep planning, it's impossible for them to leave in such a hurry.

Therefore, when they return next time, not only will they come back with renewed vigor, but their strength will definitely increase once again.

Chapter 161 The Heavenly Child Granny Returns to Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self

With the help of the Dragon Pearl, the powerful and pure Yang Qi circulated throughout the limbs and bones of the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny.

Even the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny, sensing the utmost purity and righteousness of that pure Yang Qi, couldn't help but sigh in her heart, truly a prodigy who had forged the foundation of the Dao.

Not to mention her nearly 100 years of cultivation, it is still not as good as that profound and unparalleled pure yang qi.

Furthermore, Zhang Xiaoshan's pure and righteous Yang primordial energy is like water, so her true energy is merely atomized water vapor.

The difference between the two is like heaven and earth.

If she hadn't known that Zhang Xiaoshan hadn't yet broken through to the Grandmaster level, she would have thought that Zhang Xiaoshan had already reached the very deep realm of Grandmaster.

Her Longevity Technique is already a top-tier Taoist skill, and her internal energy is nearly a century old, pure and vast, rarely seen in the world.

Moreover, the rising purple energy during healing nourished the atrophy of his meridians caused by his demonic possession.

Its mysteries lie even further beyond the profound and pure Yang primordial energy.

Otherwise, how could he be confident in healing the injuries caused by qi deviation?

With the nourishment of pure yang purple energy, and aided by the dragon pearl.

Unbeknownst to her, the young Tianshan Child Granny's body was covered in fragrant sweat, and a feeling like ants gnawing at her bones was spreading through her body.

This is the muscles and bones being stretched.

It was also the "870" body that had been stagnant that began to grow a new round of growth under the dual stimulation of pure yang purple energy and the power of the dragon ball.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Xiaoshan stopped practicing his internal energy.

"Alright, we'll resume treatment in three days!"

With the pure Yang purple energy completely depleted, even Zhang Xiaoshan's face turned somewhat pale.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiaoshan still had most of his true qi left and retained most of his strength. If anyone thought that Zhang Xiaoshan was at his last gasp, they would surely suffer a great loss.

However, without the Pure Yang Purple Qi, the recovery speed of Pure Yang True Qi and its control during use are much worse.

After all, pure yang purple energy is the fundamental source of the Dao!

"Young man, you now..."

At this moment, Tianshan Tonglao, who seemed to have just emerged from a steamer, also sensed Zhang Xiaoshan's condition.

Pure Yang Purple Qi is the foundation of Taoism. Zhang Xiaoshan completely exhausted it in one go, which can be described as a serious injury to his primordial Qi. It is unknown how long it will take to recover.

In severe cases, it may even damage the foundation!

"Senior, there's no need to worry. With the power of the Dragon Balls, you'll recover in three days."

Upon hearing Zhang Xiaoshan's explanation, Tianshan Tonglao felt relieved but also deeply shaken.

Even Lianxing, who was protecting the Dharma on the side, was just an ordinary person!

It should be known that Zhang Sanfeng would have perished if he had exhausted all his vital energy in one go. Even though Zhang Xiaoshan was young, it was certain that his vital energy would have been severely damaged, yet he recovered in just three days.

They witnessed once again the incredible restorative power and the wonders of the Dragon Balls.

"Grandma, you've grown taller?"

In just half an hour, when everyone saw the Heavenly Child Granny emerge, they couldn't help but show surprise.

Everyone present was a top expert, so they could tell at a glance that Tianshan Tonglao had grown at least an inch taller!

Trying to force growth by pulling up seedlings?

Even so, it is still an absolutely mysterious method.

"Alright, Rong'er, prepare some highly nourishing ginseng and pork bone soup for the senior during this time."

From now on, each healing process will require absolute nourishment to strengthen the bones and muscles, ensuring abundant vital energy and preventing damage to the body's foundation.

"Rest assured, my lord!"

Seeing that the Heavenly Child Granny had grown an inch taller, they knew that it required a huge amount of nutrition.

Otherwise, insufficient nutrition will damage the body's foundation, resulting in a cycle of robbing Peter to pay Paul.

For a month, Zhang Xiaoshan was designing RVs inside the villa.

This RV is a travel marvel designed by Zhang Xiaoshan; it is 13 feet long and 10 feet wide.

It looks extremely simple, but Zhang Xiaoshan's design is more than just a superficial exercise.

Leaving aside the luxurious design and decoration standards, Zhang Xiaoshan has come up with ingenious ideas and innovations time and time again, even just in the design of the chassis, such as the distance between the wheels, the shock absorption, and the axles.

The cutting-edge technology hidden within is something outsiders could never imagine.

Even Huang Rong and Hong Xiao were completely baffled when they were tidying up the study.

Especially the drafts, which piled up like mountains.

It's just a chassis, a car body, and wheels, does it really need so many drafts?

Meanwhile, the treatment of Tianshan Tonglao has reached its final stage.

Every three days, the Tianshan Child Granny was treated for her injuries. To everyone's astonishment, the Tianshan Child Granny, who was originally only as young as a child, had grown to the height of a young girl.

Within three days after each healing session, the Heavenly Child Granny would binge eat and drink.

Then, based on the original one-inch growth, it grew another one or two inches taller without anyone noticing.

In just one month, the little girl, who was less than four feet tall, has grown into a slender girl over six feet tall.

Her childlike yet mature face gradually revealed stunning beauty, long and straight legs, a slender waist, and a long, jade-like neck with fair skin and delicate bones. If it weren't for the fact that all the nutrition was used to grow taller, resulting in a flat chest, she would be a captivating beauty who could topple cities and kingdoms.

Seeing the changes happening day by day, everyone was amazed.

It should be noted that Tianshan Tonglao was nearly 100 years old, suffered from osteoporosis, and was 'old and frail'.

But if things continue like this, I'm afraid I'll really have to go back to being eighteen again.

After all, the bone nutrients supplemented are genuine, and with the pure Yang purple energy nourishing the bones and muscles, the fact that it can continue to grow under these conditions is itself a feat defying the heavens.

It's like a complete transformation.

So, is the body that grew up still the same body that was originally over ninety years old?

Even if Yaoyue remains eternally youthful, the age-preserving effect of the ten-thousand-year-old cold jade on Huang Rong's body is merely superficial.

The internal metabolism continues to function normally, including cell division and aging.

Even after turning 100, beneath a beautiful exterior lies an aged body, at most slightly better off than other centenarians.

But now, the Heavenly Child Granny's body is growing taller in reverse.

"Senior, I'm sorry for the offense!"

Inside the secret room, Zhang Xiaoshan apologized.

Before, things were fine; Zhang Xiaoshan wasn't embarrassed at all about Xiaodouding's health.

But now, even with a flat chest, her slender and graceful figure is still remarkable, and there are differences between men and women.

As the vast, ocean-like pure Yang Qi poured into her body, in an instant, Tianshan Tonglao's entire body resembled a steamed lobster or a red-hot iron, her blood and energy surging and overflowing.

After stimulating his blood energy, a faint purple aura followed Zhang Xiaoshan's arm and entered Tianshan Tonglao's body.

The purpose of circulating pure Yang Qi through the blood is to accelerate blood and Qi circulation, preventing insufficient oxygen supply, and ensuring that the body's accumulated tonics replenish the body's growth in a timely manner.

The pure yang energy within the meridians nourishes the muscles and bones, which is the true way to heal injuries.

In contrast, the clothes of the Heavenly Child Granny were quickly soaked with her fragrant sweat.

Look no further!

Although Zhang Xiaoshan muttered to himself, he sighed inwardly, "What a pity."

Half an hour later, as the pure Yang purple energy was exhausted once again, Zhang Xiaoshan couldn't help but speak up:

"Alright, senior, not only have your physical defects been restored, but the side effects of the Six Directions and Eight Desolations Supreme Technique have also been completely resolved under the nourishment of the Pure Yang Purple Qi. There is no need to worry about the danger of losing your power."

"Really?"

Tianshan Tonglao looked at Zhang Xiaoshan in disbelief.

"Of course, although the loss of energy is a defect in the technique, it is actually just a problem with the meridians."

"This junior has nourished your meridians with pure Yang purple energy, senior, completely eradicating the previously accumulated damage. If there were any side effects of dissipating your power, those would be thirty years from now!"
