I Can Use Myriad Divine Abilities-Chapter 199: Opening the Qi Sea

The incredibly vibrant life aura vanished in an instant in Zhang Yuan’s hands.

Like an extremely delicate flower suddenly struck by a storm, leaving only withered stems in the blink of an eye. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Even though she had stopped breathing, the unparalleled beauty of her face still showed a pitiful expression.

Only the wide-open eyes revealed shock and despair.

She clearly couldn’t believe that a young man like Zhang Yuan could resist her allure.

Even ruthlessly destroy the flower in his hands!

Perhaps she was too shocked, hence her expression remained so vivid, as if time froze at that moment.

Zhang Yuan calmly retracted the right hand that had just snuffed out a life.

In truth, he had been quite gentle and merciful, not directly crushing her neck and tearing out her spine.

He left an intact corpse.

Zhang Yuan’s gaze fell on the other party’s tightly clenched left hand.

He pried open her delicate fingers.

And saw several gleaming steel needles held in the beautiful woman’s palm.

The tips of each steel needle shimmered with a blackish-purple hue.

Without a doubt, they were all coated with a potent poison!

Not only that, when Zhang Yuan pried open her red lips, he found a silver needle clenched between her teeth and tongue.

She was indeed beautiful, yet a femme fatale!

At that moment, he suddenly felt something was amiss and immediately rubbed her nose hard with his thumb.

The result was a layer of powder coming off!

He continued rubbing, and more powder appeared.

After rubbing it all off, Zhang Yuan saw another face.

Damn!

He had felt a bit strange earlier; how could such a stunning beauty willingly be a night assassin?

No wonder her beauty was the result of a disguise!

One had to admit, this female assassin’s disguise technique was truly impressive.

She had taken a face worth six or seven points and disguised it to appear as nine points.

If Zhang Yuan hadn’t touched her directly.

He wouldn’t have been able to tell the difference!

Though her appearance was a disguise, her figure was genuinely flawless, without any shortcomings.

Not wanting to waste resources, Zhang Yuan transcended her while the body was still warm...

In just a short moment, the beautiful woman turned to ashes, completely disappearing from this world.

The prompt in his vision made Zhang Yuan frown involuntarily.

A bit low.

This female assassin had a Tier Three Transformation Realm cultivation, and her agility was exceptionally quick, making her very troublesome.

If Zhang Yuan hadn’t been bolstered by the power of two hosts.

He wouldn’t have been able to kill her, let alone escape her grasp!

Such a skilled person, and fully intact, surprisingly only provided less than thirty points of Source Material.

Somewhat overturned Zhang Yuan’s understanding of the Divine Nest.

Yet, he didn’t delve into it further.

Because the relics left by the female assassin caught Zhang Yuan’s attention.

Earlier, he had discovered the hidden weapons in her hands and mouth, but after transcending the body, many shiny objects remained scattered on the ground!

Apparently, this female assassin, even when not wearing any clothing, had hidden an astounding number of hidden weapons.

Some were hidden in her hair, some under her arms, some in...

Just thinking about it sent chills down Zhang Yuan’s spine.

Fortunately, he wasn’t entranced by her charm technique, or he would have been in big trouble!

Who knows how many opponents this female assassin disposed of using the same methods.

Shaking his head, Zhang Yuan collected all the items scattered on the ground.

Including the weapons used by the opponent.

However, besides the hidden weapons, the female assassin left behind hundreds of scales.

These scales were all precisely the same size, about an inch square, thin as cicada wings and light as nothing, with a dark black surface and dense dark red blood patterns.

The material was incredibly tough!

Zhang Yuan cleaned out and counted all the scales, totaling four hundred thirty-seven!

Even combined, the total weight did not exceed three ounces.

But this was not the intriguing aspect of these scales.

Before scattering on the ground, they collectively formed the night attire worn by the female assassin.

Including boots, hood, and mask, all made of scales!

How they formed armor-like clothing and how they scattered apart was beyond Zhang Yuan’s understanding.

But he was one hundred percent sure these scales were not ordinary items, likely a reason for her formidable skills.

Zhang Yuan set aside all the scales.

Then he packed away other items, including the dagger left by the female assassin, to be delivered to the Long Celestial River and buried beneath the dark rocks on the riverbed.

Returning home, Zhang Yuan had lost all sleepiness.

Initially, he had thought about extracting from her origins and her intent for attacking him.

But now, as that was impossible, such questions naturally remained mysteries.

Zhang Yuan had no acquaintance with this female assassin, bore no grievances, and it was impossible she sneaked into his home to steal rice, right?

If she had a mastermind behind her, who could that be?

To avoid trouble, Zhang Yuan chose to cultivate in seclusion at the West Mountain Collection, living a life separated from others.

He just wanted to live in peace.

Yet trouble found him time and again.

Disrupting his tranquility!

Thinking of the True Martial Sect visitors who came earlier, Zhang Yuan felt a surge of anger, with his Qi Blood surging in his body.

And the Red Blood Saber nurtured in his left hand also became restless.

Constantly sending Zhang Yuan desires for slaughter!

He paced around the room twice, unable to suppress the boiling Qi Blood.

Limbs and bones, internal organs, every inch of skin and muscle involuntarily erupted with powerful energy.

Zhang Yuan was startled.

He didn’t understand why he was experiencing such an uncontrollable state.

But he was certain, if he let this state continue, he might not be able to avoid exploding and dying!

Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, a resolute look flashing in his eyes.

He opened the trapdoor beneath the bed, quickly entered the secret passage.

Soon he appeared in a small underground secret chamber.

This small secret chamber was specially dug by Zhang Yuan, prepared for his breakthrough to Tier Four.

Originally, according to his plan, he intended to open up the Sea of Qi before spring.

But he couldn’t wait any longer!

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Zhang Yuan closed his eyes.

Started guiding the restless energy throughout his body to converge and gather towards his lower abdomen.

This was the first step in opening up the Sea of Qi.

The Sea of Qi, also known as the Dantian, is the source of power for martial artists at Tier Four and beyond!

Without the Sea of Qi, one cannot refine or store True Qi.

However, this first step is the most difficult.

Throughout history, countless martial artists have been stuck at this step!

It must be noted that the Dantian part is one of the critical areas of the human body, and opening up the Sea of Qi is extremely dangerous.

At best, it damages the foundation, at worst, it renders one a cripple, or even kills on the spot!

Because opening up the Sea of Qi is so perilous.

Many martial artists at the peak of Tier Three Transformation Realm are hesitant to take this step.

But at this moment, Zhang Yuan had no other choice!
