Chapter 48 Breaking Limits
Chapter 48 Breaking Limits
In the night sky, a middle-aged man dressed in a Taoist robe rode the wind and landed outside the stone pavilion behind Xiaoyao Residence.
Looking at the stone table that had been moved aside, and sensing the pure spiritual energy that had completely disappeared from the stone pavilion, his hair moved without wind, and a powerful aura emanated from his body.
"Dare to touch anything belonging to the Xie family? You're asking for death!"
A moment later, another middle-aged man dressed in a Taoist robe arrived riding the wind.
"Brother Yanli, what happened that caused such a commotion?"
Xie Yanli turned to look at the newcomer, his anger subsiding. Then, with a wave of his hand, a gust of wind swept the stone table back to its original position.
"A petty thief has appeared in our house. He stole something important, and I apologize for the embarrassment, Brother Zhi Qiu."
Shen Zhi Qiu glanced at the stone pavilion, then quickly looked away as if to avoid suspicion, and bowed respectfully, saying:
"This time, thanks to Brother Xie, otherwise the Yellow Millet Technique wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
Xie Yanli was clearly not in the mood to deal with Shen Zhiqi at this moment, and gave a curt reply.
"It's just a matter of each getting what they need."
Without any hesitation, he said, "Alright, this collaboration is over. Brother Zhi Qiu, take care."
Shen Zhi Qiu didn't mind Xie Yanli's rudeness. He chuckled, bowed, and when he stood up again, he had already become a blur.
"They left quite decisively."
Xie Yanli gave a light scoff.
"It's as if they're afraid of getting ripped off by the Shen family of Huangliang."
Xie Yanli's figure flashed, and when he reappeared, he was already sitting cross-legged on the stone table.
Xie Yanqing took out a bronze mirror from his bosom, made a hand seal with one hand, and sent a series of magic seals into the bronze mirror.
"Let's take a picture!"
The real-time surveillance footage of the stone pavilion appeared in the mirror, as if a rewind had been turned on. The images in the stone pavilion began to rewind rapidly frame by frame, finally freezing on a blurry image.
"This method of interference is multifaceted!"
Xie Yanli quickly identified the suspect.
"It's those mad dogs from the He family."
Who put a blacklist on the Xie family at Qianmian's place?
They specifically targeted and disrupted the feng shui formation of Jiangcheng.
"Those lunatics are completely unreasonable."
There's no way to remove someone from the blacklist.
It feels like I've been targeted by a mad dog.
A hint of annoyance flashed in Xie Yanli's eyes.
"What bad luck."
……
back home.
Xia Xue gently patted her chest.
"Tonight was really exciting."
However, the gains were also significant.
"I'm exhausted."
Xia Xue placed the wooden box on the bedside table and lay down on the bed.
"From beginning to end, I used the art of a thousand faces to disguise myself, and finally used interference techniques to erase all traces. I shouldn't be found out, right?"
After reviewing the situation, Xia Xue found no mistakes and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Next, it's time to open the box."
It's a spirit!
She has never seen a spirit before.
"Let me see what kind of treasure it is!"
Just as Xia Xue was about to open it, she suddenly had an idea. She made several hand seals in mid-air, forming an array barrier that enveloped her entire bedroom.
"Better safe than sorry, add a few more layers of protection."
Xia Xue used her Thousand Faces technique to disguise and interfere before finally opening the wooden box with peace of mind.
"roar!"
As the wooden box was opened, a phantom dragon shadow about a foot long appeared out of thin air, emitting a soft dragon roar before disappearing into nothingness.
"Wow, it even has special effects, no wonder it's a spirit creature."
Xia Xue looked at the glass bead, about the size of a billiard ball, wrapped in red silk in the wooden box, and gently picked it up.
"What kind of bead is this? There's a faint dragon shadow swimming inside. I seem to recognize it. I know! It's a Dragon Ball!"
Dragon Balls are innate spiritual objects born from dragon veins, possessing abilities such as suppressing fortune, serving as the core of an array, and strengthening the body.
Most importantly, in the art of Feng Shui, the Dragon Ball is a panacea, capable of replacing the core element of almost any type of Feng Shui formation.
This one feature alone makes it a favorite among all Feng Shui masters.
Just as I was pondering this, the system notification sounded again.
"An item highly compatible with Baguazhang has been discovered; treasure chest is generating..."
Xia Xue looked at her empty palm; the Dragon Ball had vanished.
Xia Xue blinked.
"Dragon Balls can also generate treasure chests?"
Baguazhang?
How could Dragon Ball and Baguazhang be so closely related?
Xia Xue was curious.
After all, one is a feng shui auspicious object, and the other is traditional martial arts.
They're clearly not related at all.
"etc…"
Xia Xue suddenly thought of something.
"Dragon Balls, spiritual objects of heaven and earth, pearl-type spiritual objects, body-enhancing spiritual objects... that matches up, so that's what they are..."
Xia Xue was about to blurt it out excitedly when the system's voice sounded again.
"Open the treasure chest, and the Bagua Palm will break through its limits, unlock the Blood Sea, advance to the extraordinary realm, and achieve the Dan Jin."
really!
"Dan Jin"
It truly is the legendary Dan Jin.
The last chapter of "Baguazhang" contains speculations about the subsequent realms.
"There are two ways to break through to the Dan Jin level. One is to temper the body, break through the limit, open the Blood Sea, and advance to the Dan Jin level. The other is to use a bead-like spiritual object with the function of strengthening the body, and forcibly break through the Blood Sea to advance to the Dan Jin level through the Blood Refining method."
Clearly, the system is using the second method.
"Dan Jin: Blood Sea is born, Dan Jin is formed. Opening up the Blood Sea is like water finding its source, like a tree finding its roots. The energy returns to its nest, perfectly transforming into Dan Jin. The body breaks through its limits, and infinite possibilities are unlocked."
Having just finished reading the system's introduction to Dan Jin, Xia Xue immediately had the illusion of falling into water from a great height. A faint light appeared "before her eyes" and then suddenly enveloped her, like a swimming dragon, passing through a long passage and finally arriving in a blood-red space.
"Is this the sea of blood?"
Xia Xue saw a dragon shadow circling directly above the crimson space. With each circle, the crimson sea space seemed to absorb energy from the outside, transforming it into streams of milky-white spherical energy.
"Is this the Dan Jin?"
Xia Xue was in a daze for a moment, and when her consciousness returned to her body, everything that had just happened seemed like a dream.
However, Xia Xue knew that it was not a dream.
Xia Xue lowered her eyes and looked at the center of her chest.
"A sea of blood!"
She could clearly sense the existence of the sea of blood.
Furthermore, one can completely control the Dan Jin transformed from the Blood Sea.
Xia Xue flipped her hand over and looked at the milky white halo emerging from her palm.
"Once the vital energy is transformed into a pill, one can break free from the shackles of the body."
Even after leaving the body, it can exist for a long time.
Unlike the "Transformation of Intensity" which is like fireworks, it only lingers briefly after leaving the body.
Xia Xue clenched her fist slightly.
"I have more control over my body now."
Xia Xue had no spiritual energy fluctuations, but her muscles kept deforming and her bones kept shifting. In a short while, Xia Xue became a stranger.
"Only after advancing to the Dan Jin level did I finally truly master 'Thousand Faces'."
This eliminated the biggest flaw: fluctuations in spiritual energy.
"The Dragon Balls seem to have other uses as well..."
