Secret Buyer-Chapter 198 - 154: The Power to Shake Mountains and Identity Inspection

Chapter 198: Chapter 154: The Power to Shake Mountains and Identity Inspection

The red glow illuminating the dark mountains

grows ever more brilliant.

Zhang Fusheng sits quietly at the heart of the layered ranges,

as a unique hum emanates from his five viscera, breaking one chain after another, fifteen levels of great secrets fully unearthed!

Yet he remains utterly still.

The realm of the Grandmaster lies in spirit; once achieving the Illusory Divine Realm and Spiritual Minor Perfection, it serves as the ’pass’ to step onto the grandmaster stage.

But it’s merely a pass.

The weight of a Grandmaster is more about ’the body as a furnace’.

[In the fourteenth year, I have fully opened my five viscera, standing at the true pinnacle of the Martial Arts Master’s level, obstructed only by the word furnace]

[I quietly recite the Great Sun Illuminates 72 Snow Mountains Scripture]

Zhang Fusheng’s skin emits steam, revealing seventy-two overlapping snow mountains behind him, while a phantom great sun emerges above his head.

The reddish glow of the blood-like qi among the mountains suddenly dims.

For at this moment, it seems as bright as daytime.

Zhang Fusheng studied the [Melting Furnace Realm], with his Assistant Commissioner privileges, finding details of this realm is not difficult.

The Melting Furnace Realm entails the body as a furnace, with the human body containing three hundred and sixty acupoints,

each acupoint capable of being ignited, flourishing with a fire-like vitality, igniting a hundred acupoints equates to forming one furnace fire.

"The first hundred acupoints are for the physical body furnace, the next hundred for primordial qi furnace, and the last hundred for spiritual furnace."

"The remaining sixty acupoints, are the Heaven and Earth furnace."

"With a total of four furnace fires, if they are all ignited, it becomes a great furnace."

"Igniting acupoints....."

"Utilizing spiritual will, capturing the Heaven and Earth’s Qi Mechanism as fuel, one can ignite the great acupoints."

Zhang Fusheng ponders, this is why one must achieve Spiritual Minor Perfection before stepping into the Melting Furnace Realm and Grandmaster Realm.

"A city is a heaven and earth."

"A heaven and earth can ignite one furnace fire, lighting a hundred acupoints..."

"Four furnace fires, Essence furnace, Qi furnace, Spirit furnace, Heaven and Earth furnace!"

Thoughts glide through his mind.

[In the fifteenth year, I used spiritual will to capture the Qi Mechanism of Chongyang Heaven and Earth, drawing it into my body, I successfully ignited the first acupoint]

[In the sixteenth year, the second acupoint]

[In the seventeenth year...]

With every breath that passes, a hum resounds within Zhang Fusheng as each acupoint ignites, amplifying his aura tenfold!

One acupoint, tenfold amplification.

[In the one hundred and fourteenth year, greedily absorbing the Heaven and Earth’s Qi Mechanism, finally!]

[The first hundred acupoints were successfully ignited]

[Within me, the hundred acupoints became light, interwoven — I have attained Grandmaster!]

[The first furnace of Essence fire was attained, that is, the physical body furnace!]

[As long as the physical body furnace burns, the physical body is undying, capable of blood rebirth]

The seventy-two snow mountains expand, a searing aura flows between his skin, with a ’buzz’, behind his head, a phantom furnace flickers!

This is the Essence fire, the physical body furnace, the vitality furnace!

[In the one hundred and fifteenth year, with the Qi Mechanism of Chongyang Heaven and Earth igniting one furnace, I must journey to other minor heavens and earths]

[But temporarily unable to, I began tempering these hundred acupoints]

[In the one hundred and thirtieth year, my hundred acupoints expanded from drops of starlight to the radiance of the moon]

[I am boiling over]

[In the one hundred and fiftieth year, I continued tempering the already ignited hundred acupoints, this one furnace also nourishes, tempering my body]

[In the one hundred and sixtieth year, the furnace had grown exceedingly potent, like an ancient Grandmaster, steadfast and unmoving, akin to a great sun!]

After one hundred and sixty years of painstaking cultivation, it ends here.

He doesn’t know when, but as a person who has achieved an eighteen-foot true body, he opens his eyes among the mountains.

Grandmaster—no.

Great Grandmaster.

The Great Grandmaster who ignited the first furnace, physical strength has surpassed four million two hundred thousand jin, with the ignition of a hundred acupoints,

with the birth of the first furnace fire!

Thus, adding another two million jin of strength, surpassing six million two hundred thousand jin of strength.

Yet.....

Zhang Fusheng slowly stands up.

’Buzz!’

The acupoints blaze, that furnace of the physical body, like a great sun, also blazes intensely.

One acupoint, elevates strength by tenfold.

A hundred acupoints, elevates strength by one hundredfold.

That is, six million jin of strength, thirty thousand tons of power!

"So, this is a Grandmaster?"

A low whisper, but in the mountains, it sweeps a mighty wind, by just standing there, without even retracting his aura and power,

the ground beneath his feet already starts to crack.

In terms of pure strength, he far surpasses other Grandmasters or Great Grandmasters who have ignited one furnace fire.

Zhang Fusheng quickly calculates, a typical Grandmaster with a physical body furnace might be within the range of only thirty million jin of strength,

yet his liberated true body, nearly double!

"The gap between Grandmaster and Martial Arts Master is truly vast, beyond vast..."

Zhang Fusheng marvels, of the three hundred sixty acupoints, a hundred acupoints pertaining to the physical body can ignite one physical body furnace,

one acupoint, ten thousand jin of force, elevates strength by tenfold.

One furnace adds another million jin of force, with myriad wondrous applications.

Zhang Fusheng marvels greatly, the gap between Grandmaster and Martial Arts Master is outrageously large.

If Grandmaster is like this, then what of the Innate Realm?

His expression somber for a few moments, cultivation becomes more distinct with each advancing realm, like the descending God of Plague,

though merely a ’false body’, it isn’t on par with true deities, estimated to be stronger than a Sixth Realm Tao Celestial Being, yet less than the weakest deity,

yet still capable of tearing apart thousands of miles of land with one thought!

"Furnace fire..."

"As long as the furnace fire burns, one can experience blood rebirth, this is the Divine Technique of the physical body."

"Power is secondary."

Zhang Fusheng closes his eyes and opens them again.

A spiritual image, two hundred meters tall, rises behind him.

The furnace fire erupted, reflected behind the spiritual image, the immense, majestic Nine Netherworld Sin-Extinguishing Celestial Venerate spiritual image,

suddenly condenses more solidly beneath the furnace light from a once phantom, translucent state!

"The spiritual image, inherently the product of Unity of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, I, having ignited the physical body furnace, see [Essence] soaring, the spiritual image grows mightier!"

"Rise!"

The seventy-two snow mountains tremble, the phantom great sun shudders, the two hundred meters of almost substantial spiritual image lightly punches out.

’Buzz!’

A green-black mountain is shaken, cracking, pierced through!

"A full-force strike from a Grandmaster, can almost shatter a peak."

"I have only just ignited one furnace."

"I have yet to wield the True Divine Realm."

The spiritual image vanishes, abbreviates the eighteen-foot true body, reverting to human size, thoughts shift, concealing the furnace fire at the brow acupoint.

As long as the Flesh Furnace Fire does not extinguish, one can possess the Divine Technique of Blood Rebirth.

"Still lacking three furnace fires, needing to go to three different cities... not difficult."

Zhang Fusheng smiled,

his body had already reached the Grandmaster level, and with the addition of the True Divine Realm, he was a Great Grandmaster.

The difference between a Great Grandmaster and a Grandmaster, in terms of strength and capability, is not much,

the main difference lies in spiritual will.

Every move of a Great Grandmaster is like the leap of a nimble celestial horse, the antlers of a gazelle, and these are just secondary; the real difference lies in the Dharma Aspect.

"The Dharma Aspect of a Great Grandmaster, under the blessing of the True Divine Realm, possesses some unique mysteries, even capable of manipulating the Power of Heaven and Earth..."

"Like that day, when I was not yet a Grandmaster, a sigh of ’dust to dust, earth to earth’ was enough to dissolve that old man’s Dharma Aspect."

Zhang Fusheng turned his head back, gazing at the layers of mountains engulfed again by the night, with white snow accumulating at their bases,

while the mountaintops had turned black and cracked.

Thus baked by the Great Sun.

He stood quietly in the moonlight, suddenly recalling the wisp of candle flame given by his grandmaster, that wisp from the Celestial Position of Maitreya Buddha.

His grandmaster said,

if in the future, he were to merge that wisp of candle flame into the fire of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, it would lead to an incredible great fortune.

Looking at it now, isn’t it the three lamps of furnace fire?

No, there’s still a fourth one—the Heaven and Earth Furnace Fire.

"Once the Heaven and Earth Furnace Fire is lit, it means one can truly borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth."

"The merger also involves bringing that wisp of candle flame into union with the Heaven and Earth Furnace Fire."

Zhang Fusheng glanced in the direction of Chongyang City, slightly bending his knees.

In a normal state, his strength remained at thirty million jin, fifteen thousand tons, equivalent to a Grandmaster with a normally ignited Flesh Furnace Fire.

And if he were to unleash his true form, his strength would double.

Exerting force.

The ground beneath him did not crack but suddenly sank!!

Indeed, over a kilometer of rock layers of the earth fell heavily, accompanied by the instant Zhang Fusheng broke the sound barrier, before the sunken earth shattered and exploded into the air!!

The ground tore open and rose into the sky.

Ten times the speed of sound, twenty times the speed of sound, thirty times the speed of sound!

Speed kept soaring.

Three seconds elapsed.

In one breath.

He was already sixty kilometers away.

Fast! Even faster!

A hundred breaths later.

Chongyang was in sight.

Zhang Fusheng halted his steps, slowing down, concealing his figure, and returned within the boundaries of Chongyang City.

At this moment.

The roaring sound from his swift travel, gigantic gusts raised, fragmented layers of rock, the torn apart forests and lakes,

had just reached the outskirts of Chongyang City.

Like a small-scale sandstorm.

"Where does this Grandmaster come from, showing no restraint at all?" Someone frowned, waving a hand in the air.

The sandstorm was intercepted dozens of miles away by this gesture.

"Impressive."

Zhang Fusheng quietly observed the scene, nodding slightly—this was the Dharma Aspect.

The Grandmaster who acted had used a portion of the Dharma Aspect.

"So the Dharma Aspect can be used this way..." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Zhang Fusheng grinned, full of spirit. The Grandmaster Realm, Melting Furnace Realm,

aren’t like Martial Arts Masters needing the assistance of Great Medicine.

It’s just a furnace fire requiring a walk through a city, staying there for many years.

But he was different.

He could achieve a hundred years of cultivation in a breath.

"Tomorrow, I need to learn techniques from the grandmaster, after learning, I will visit other cities... just subordinate cities."

Zhang Fusheng thought clearly,

Presently,

in any subordinate city, he would be an absolute ruler—unless encountering someone like Old Shi who concealed his strength.

There’s naturally no need to go to other higher cities to ignite a furnace fire.

There’s no difference anyway.

"February 9 next year is the time for competition, and Chongyang is become increasingly chaotic now."

"I could easily distance myself from this vortex, and first visit three subordinate cities, to ignite the remaining three furnace fires..."

He exhaled a fiery turbid breath, and quietly returned home.

That’s settled.

However, there’s one more thing to do before leaving.

"I’ve already taken Chu Jipeng’s life anyway, before leaving, I should take the Chu Family into my control, and take over the position of Director General by the way."

Zhang Fusheng lay on the bed, relaxing his body and mind, and fell into a peaceful sleep.

Hadn’t slept for a long time.

......

The next day.

Early morning.

Zhang Fusheng had breakfast, leaving the house at the same time with his parents.

The old couple still insisted on going to work, not wanting to stay idle at home.

One went to the casino, the other to the school,

Zhang Fusheng wasn’t worried—each had a top-level Grim Skeleton from a Grandmaster level following them.

He rushed to the Public Security Headquarters, just in time for the high-level morning meeting.

The morning meeting was for the three Deputy Directors and six Assistant Commissioners to discuss affairs, but when Zhang Fusheng entered the meeting room, he found that Old Liu was not present,

only He Gaozhuo and another Deputy Director responsible for security were seated.

Zhang Fusheng sat down without any hesitation, and He Gaozhuo gave him a look.

Hmm?

Zhang Fusheng raised his eyebrows.

Is there a situation?

At that thought, Deputy Director Wang, who was in charge of security, looked at him.

"Assistant Zhang?"

Deputy Director Wang coughed, gently tapping the conference table:

"We are discussing an issue regarding you."

"Me?" Zhang Fusheng raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"

Deputy Director Wang pondered for a moment and said:

"Golden City, the Investigation Bureau, has sent a cooperation document, requiring us to assist in a review of Assistant Zhang’s identity."

"In three days, auditors from the Investigation Bureau will arrive in Chongyang."

Zhang Fusheng frowned.

Identity review?

Which bastard reported me?
