Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 160 - 134: Battle of the Innate

Fortune: 7022

Skills: Three-legged Body Technique (Beginner+)

Jiang Feng looked at it and almost lost it.

Could it be that the level of Three-legged Body Technique is even more outrageous than Tai Chi Longevity Skill?

He saw that the plus sign at the back hadn’t disappeared.

Jiang Feng added another five thousand Fortune Points to Three-legged Body Technique.

The panel information changed again.

"It takes fifteen thousand Fortune points just to get started. There really is something strange about this Three-legged Body Technique."

"I can still upgrade Wind Palm. Might as well upgrade it too!"

Jiang Feng murmured to himself.

The panel information changed.

Fortune: 22

Skill: Wind Palm (Entry)

"Black Iron Mountain?"

"With my current strength, no matter if it’s a dragon’s lair or a tiger’s den, I can at least protect myself!"

"The Second Prince would never imagine that I’d have become Innate."

"Besides, I already guessed there’s a trap at the top."

Jiang Feng muttered.

Thinking of this.

He turned into a blur and sped rapidly toward Black Iron Mountain.

The Three-legged Body Technique finally reached Entry level after much effort.

Jiang Feng could just use this chance to practice.

With Innate Primordial Power applied to the Three-legged Body Technique, Jiang Feng saw lines of golden footprints appearing in front of him, as if those were the marks he left behind, and his speed quietly increased without him even noticing.

It was as if he had become a phantom.

It wasn’t long before he arrived at Black Iron Mountain.

At this moment, Bao Longwei had already ordered the Prison Army members to surround Black Iron Mountain.

At the foot of the mountain.

There were also people from Dragon Capital Government Office; Huo Shangxiang was among them.

Han Dong was currently negotiating with Huo Shangxiang.

Jiang Feng hid in the darkness.

He wanted to listen in on what they were saying.

"How long have they been inside Black Iron Mountain, and was there anyone else who went in?"

"I was on a case nearby, when I suddenly saw a dark figure leading someone into Black Iron Mountain. Their backs looked very much like the people described by your Zhenbei Prison staff, but I can’t say for sure whether those two figures are the ones you’re looking for."

Huo Shangxiang answered.

"That’s all you saw?"

Han Dong frowned.

"It happened so suddenly, sorry."

Huo Shangxiang wore an apologetic look.

"Why didn’t you take people up to search first?"

Xiao Ran said discontentedly.

"We were afraid of alerting the enemy and didn’t dare to go up rashly."

A constable explained.

"Heh, I suppose you’re just afraid an Innate Powerhouse would smack you dead with a single palm!"

Xiao Ran sneered.

At his words, Huo Shangxiang and the other people all seethed inwardly, but didn’t dare to show it. They all knew Xiao Ran’s status and strength.

"Now’s not the time to argue. Come with me."

Han Dong defused the awkward atmosphere.

She led Huo Shangxiang and the others over to Bao Longwei’s side.

At the moment, Bao Longwei was consulting with a master who had come from the Imperial City.

The other party glanced at Black Iron Mountain.

With Innate Power circulating, Black Iron Mountain looked like daylight. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

He said, "Below Innate, you’re all just ants. If you want to arrest him, your people won’t cut it. Here’s what you do: have your men guard the foot of the mountain, surround this place completely. If anyone suspicious comes running down, don’t get close; use the crossbows and rain arrows on him. You don’t have to take him down, just make sure he can’t escape Black Iron Mountain. I have my own way to deal with him."

"Then let’s do as Mr. Yang says."

Bao Longwei nodded.

Mr. Yang was a master sent by the Emperor, a genuine Innate Powerhouse. If anyone knew how to deal with an opponent of the same level, it was Mr. Yang—so Bao Longwei followed his arrangements.

"Everyone below Middle Third Grades stays behind. All Upper Third-Grade Martial Artists, come with me."

Mr. Yang spoke again.

"Alright."

This time, Bao Longwei gave a direct order, having Chu Tianhe lead the Prison Army to guard the foot of the mountain, while he, Han Dong, and the others followed Mr. Yang up the mountain.

Han Dong also glanced at Black Iron Mountain. Her Eye Power couldn’t compare with Bao Longwei’s, let alone Mr. Yang’s, but she’d been to Black Iron Mountain and knew the terrain above.

Still uneasy, she said, "The foot of the mountain is too wide; the brothers may not be able to watch all the places carefully. Let’s do this! Have Commander Chu bring people together with the brothers from Dragon Capital Government Office and guard the mountainside. The slope there is steep—it’s easy to climb up, but hard to come down. If anyone tries to rush down, our crossbows will really be effective."

"Director Han, if we send up so many people and startle him, what if he escapes?"

Huo Shangxiang frowned.

"Mr. Yang, you’re an Innate Powerhouse too. May I be bold and ask—if you were up on the mountain, and we surrounded the foot with so many people, how long would it take you to notice?"

Han Dong didn’t answer Huo Shangxiang, but asked Mr. Yang instead.

"Hahaha! For an Innate Practitioner, to move the heavens and earth is nothing. If your lot shows up together at the foot, even if you don’t climb up or light a fire, the power of heaven and earth around here would shift. He’d notice sooner or later—it’s just a matter of time."

Mr. Yang laughed.

"So, instead of widening the encirclement at the foot, it’s better for your people from the Government Office to help Commander Chu’s men guard the mountainside. If he really tries to come down, you’ll have the best chance of stopping him."

Han Dong turned to Huo Shangxiang.

"But... what if he rushes down before we even reach halfway up the mountain?"

Huo Shangxiang asked again.

"Commander Chu, you and the brothers from the Government Office, start closing in toward the mountainside. Lord Bao, Mr. Yang, and I will watch from below—if anything happens, use fireworks as the signal, and everyone will close in on the incident spot. We’ll get over there as fast as we can."
