The true energy flows rapidly, gushing out from the palm of the hand and pouring into that half-sacred blood.

  "Wow"

  The half-saint blood immediately dispersed and transformed into a one-meter-long Blood Python that flew around Zhang Ruochen.

  Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath, and that Blood Python Snake was directly sucked into his body.

  Boom

  As it entered his body, the powerful sacred energy of the Blood Python Snake burst forth, scorching hot like a raging fire, causing Zhang Ruochen's internal organs to ache as if they were about to split apart. The blood in his heart and veins was boiling over.

  Zhang Ruochen had long been prepared and took out an Ice Pulse Pill, quickly swallowing it.

  The Bing Mai Dan transformed into a cold and icy energy, merging into Zhang Ruo Chen's body, protecting his five organs, six viscera, meridians, and blood vessels.

  "Too bright jade clean heaven"

  Zhang Ruochen followed the second layer of cultivation in the Jiutian Mingdi Jing, mobilizing the thirty-six meridians in his body to rapidly absorb the blood energy and holy power contained in the Half-Saint Blood.

  A strand of blood energy was emitted from Zhang Ruochen's body, transforming into a three-meter-diameter giant blood cocoon that enveloped Zhang Ruochen at its center.

  About three days later, the cold ice energy of Bing Mai Dan was completely absorbed by Zhang Ruochen. The fiery power in the Half-Saint blood burst out again, as if it wanted to burn Zhang Ruochen into ashes.

  Zhang Ruochen swallowed the second Ice Marrow Pill, and a second wave of cold energy surged into his body, once again helping him resist the heat from the Half-Saint's blood.

  Three days passed again, and Zhang Ruochen took down the third Ice Marrow Pill.

  The blood gas and holy power of the semi-sacred blood were continuously absorbed by Zhang Ruochen, causing every cell in his body to expand, as if they were about to burst his body apart.

  Zhang Ruochen's martial arts cultivation had reached a critical point.

  Boom

  The air lake in Mei Xin's brow emitted a loud and violent rumble, causing Zhang Ruochen's entire body to tremble.

  The capacity of the air lake is constantly expanding, as if opening up a wider world.

  The true energy that was about to burst Zhang Ruochen's body seemed to have found an outlet, and it surged frantically towards the Qi Lake. The unbearable swelling sensation disappeared, replaced by an indescribable feeling of comfort.

  The capacity of Qi Hu has been increased by a full 21 times.

  Other warriors, from breaking through the Great Extreme Realm's Great Extreme Position to the Great Extreme Realm's Great Perfection, will only see their Qi Lake expand tenfold.

  "It must be the holy power in the semi-sacred blood that caused the change in the Air Lake, so it can expand to twenty-one times its original size."

  Of course, the larger the Qi Lake expands, the more difficult it will be to cultivate the true energy within the Qi Lake to perfection.

  When breaking through the boundary, Zhang Ruochen's true energy increased by a factor of two, but it was only one-tenth of the capacity of the Qi Lake. He still needed to cultivate nine times more true energy to achieve fullness.

  Boundary Breakthrough, Zhang Ruochen still sat on the ground, continuing to refine the remaining Holy Power and Blood Energy within his body.

  It took Zhang Ruochen another five days to convert all the holy power in his body into true energy.

  Zhang Ruochen's hands rose, drawing a circle that absorbed the blood cocoon wrapped around his body into his body. The bloody light flashed on Zhang Ruochen's skin and then completely disappeared.

  "Now, I've just entered the Xuanji Boundary's Great Perfection, but the boundary is still unstable."

  Boundary breakthrough, Zhang Ruochen could clearly feel his power increase by a large margin, making him somewhat uncontrollable.

  The sacred power and blood energy were not something that Zhang Ruochen had cultivated himself, even if they had already been transformed into true energy, it was still very difficult to control, and he must spend time tempering them, prompting the newly added true energy to thoroughly merge with his own body.

  Zhang Ruochen spent another three months cultivating in the Time and Space Crystal, spending most of his time every day practicing palm techniques. Through his practice, he was able to stimulate all the power of the Semi-Saint bloodline hidden within his body.

  At the same time, through practicing qigong, refine and stabilize one's true qi and solidify one's spiritual state.

  While practicing, Zhang Ruochen took the remaining dozen or so drops of Semi-Holy True Liquid and four Ice Pulse Pills on his body and took them all down, fully refining them.

  Every day, Zhang Ruochen had to strike out 30,000 palm prints.

  After three months, Zhang Ruochen's Xiangli Jiuzhan had reached a new level.

  Still standing ten meters away, Zhang Ruochen single-handedly manipulated the air with his palm, and the true energy around his body could be seen with the naked eye, all converging towards his palm.

  "Strength of nine elephants."

  Zhang Ruochen struck out four palm prints in a row, the four palms merged into one entity, transforming into a true energy condensed handprint virtual shadow, carrying a breath of breaking wind sound, striking the stone wall.

  Boom

  The stone wall and ground shook violently, with pieces of rock falling from above.

  On the stone wall, a huge palm print of about half a meter long appeared, deeply indented. The surrounding stone wall has cracked and numerous fine cracks have appeared.

  To know, this is Zhang Ruochen standing ten meters away, striking out with a palm through the air.

  If a palm strike were to land directly on the stone wall, it's unknown how much destructive power would be unleashed.

  "This is four times the power of a single palm, and it's unknown whether the Elephant Power Ninefold will be cultivated to its peak, bursting out with nine times the power of a single palm, what level of power can be achieved"

  Zhang Ruochen's heart was racing with excitement. Even if he were to encounter a black, eight-armed beast from the underworld right now, he would have the strength to fight it.

  After three months of cultivation, Zhang Ruochen's true energy storage reached 30% of the capacity of the Qi Lake. The amount of true energy had increased sixfold compared to before he broke through the boundary.

  "It's been over two months since entering the Red Sky Secret Mansion, it's time to go out and collect the Half-Saint Light."

  Although it has been more than two months, Zhang Ruochen has actually cultivated for half a year.

  Zhang Ruochen headed towards the cave that had first fallen from the ground, constantly breaking open the sealed entrance from beneath.

  After spending two days, Zhang Ruochen finally managed to crawl out of the ground with great difficulty and returned to the halfway up the Ghost Mist Mountain.

  Next to it was the corpse of a blue giant beetle, its fresh blood had been sucked dry, leaving only pieces of blue shell.

  Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath of cool air, "After Lu Fang melted the Half Saint's light, he actually became so terrifying that he even wanted to absorb the blood of the barbaric beast."

  As long as Lu Han can absorb enough blood, his cultivation will continue to grow stronger.

  If she had reached the level of Tianji Realm with her current strength, even if Zhang Ruochen possessed the blood of Jinyun Half Saint, it would be difficult for him to take away the light of the half saint from her.

  If it were really like that, the human cultivators and fierce beasts in the Crimson Void Secret Realm would probably all become her blood food.

  Zhang Ruochen rushed down the mountain at high speed, and all the way down, he could see the withered corpses of the barbarian beasts, all of whom had been drained of their fresh blood and died.

  "We must find her as soon as possible, can't let her grow up."

  Zhang Ruochen unfolded his fastest speed and rushed out of Guiwu Mountain.

  Zhang Ruochen followed Lu Han out, leaving behind a trail of blood as he journeyed on, searching for her whereabouts.

  Reaching the extreme boundary of the Great Perfection, Zhang Ruochen's fastest speed reached 75 meters per second, surpassing that strong practitioner who is currently ranked first on the Xuan List. At the same time, his fastest speed also surpassed Zhang Tianguang's speed when he was in the Great Perfection of the Extreme Boundary.

  Most importantly, he still has a lot of room for improvement and can fully go for the ultimate peak of the Mystic Extreme Realm.

  Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen's ears moved slightly, and he heard the sound of fighting, which came from a stone cave.

  "Could it be Lu Han?"

  Zhang Ruochen immediately became cautious, taking out a drop of Half Sacred Blood Gas, wrapping it in true energy, pinching it in the palm of his hand, and approaching that stone cave.

  In the grotto.

  Zi Yan wore a white martial robe, her skin as white as jade, her hair as black as a waterfall, her figure slender like a willow branch, her pair of slender and long legs stepped in rhythm, moving quickly.

  "Hmph"

  She thrust the fish-gut sword in her sleeve into the heart of an emaciated old man, then quickly retreated and hid in a corner of the stone cave.

  Zi Yan's beautiful eyes stared tightly at the three old men who were still surrounding the stone cave gate, without blinking.

  In the stone cave, four corpses were already lying there, all of whom had been killed by her. Some had their hearts pierced, some had their foreheads pierced, and some had their necks cut off.

  Zi Yan was also seriously injured, with a thread of blood hanging from the corner of her mouth. The robe on her back was shattered by a palm print, revealing a large area of snow-white and delicate skin.

  However, on her snow-white skin, there was a blood-red palm print, and beads of blood oozed out from the palm print, dyeing her entire back red.

  If it weren't for those seven evil people wanting to capture her alive, she probably wouldn't have just been injured.

  Seven evil people, four have already died, and the remaining three are all top-notch martial arts masters at the Earth Extreme Realm.

  "You stinky girls, you actually killed all four of us. If I capture you, I'll make sure to torture you to death." A middle-aged man with a scar above his left eyebrow said coldly.

  His arms were twice as thick as those of ordinary people, with a dark bronze color, full of explosive power, and he walked towards Zǐ Qiān, saying: "Hand over that eighth-grade True Martial Treasure, and I might spare your life."

  Zi Yan held her sword horizontally in front of her, enduring the pain on her back. The three martial arts masters in front of her, who were at the extreme limits of their power, seemed like three great mountains blocking her path, making her feel a sense of despair.

  Escaping under the siege of three martial arts masters from the Extreme North

  That's impossible.

  If there's no hope of escape in the end, she'll choose to bite the poison pill in her mouth at the first opportunity. She absolutely cannot be caught alive by them, otherwise, her fate will be more miserable than death.

  Zi Yan's eyes gleamed with a cold light as she said, "Tú Yún, I am a person from the Gate of Earth Prison. You dare to rob me of the treasure I found? Don't you fear the revenge of the Gate of Earth Prison?"

  That middle-aged man with a scar at the corner of his eye was named Tu Yun, also a ruthless person in the black market.

  Ten years ago, Tu Yun slaughtered over a hundred people in Huolong County and destroyed seven properties of the Wu City Money House. He was later captured by an inner disciple of the Wu City Imperial Academy and imprisoned in the Yanhe Refining Hell of the Chi Kong Secret Mansion.

  Not long ago, a black market member lurking in the Wushu Academy's student body opened the seal of Yanhe Lianyu, releasing all the evil people and thugs from the black market.

  The other two people with Tu Yun are called Huo Gang and Chen Lidao.

  Tú Yún's cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Earth Extreme Realm, while Huò Gāng and Chén Lí Dào were at the initial stage of the Earth Extreme Realm.

  Chen Lidao sneered and said, "You say you're a killer from the Gate of Hell, but we won't believe you. All we know is that you're wearing the uniform of Wushu Academy, so you must be a student of Wushu Academy."

  Huò just hooked the corner of his mouth, a sly and evil smile: "When I see that piece of clothing on her body, I feel very uncomfortable. I don't know what kind of scene it will be when the clothes are stripped off hehe"

  Tú Yún nodded and smiled: "I've been locked up in the Yan River Purgatory for ten years, and I haven't touched a woman in ten years. Who would have thought that as soon as I escaped, I'd meet such a beautiful and stunning beauty? Even if she's the daughter of the Gate Master of the Underworld, I'm going to play with her today. At worst, after playing with her, I'll just kill her with one knife - who knows it was us?"

  "Since big brother has already spoken, let me personally capture this beauty. I'd like to see how much weight is inside her clothes haha." Huo Gang stared at Zi Yan's slightly raised twin peaks, his eyes narrowing into a thin slit.

  There's still one more chapter later, so I'll ask for a recommendation vote first.
