Chapter 50: “Ferocious Blade” Zhao Qilei

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

During the night, Lu Changsheng was refining his organs in his room.

“Enter.”

As Lu Changsheng executed the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant, his whole body trembled. The medicinal food he had just consumed had already transformed into a warm current, flowing through his five viscera and six bowels, nourishing his internal organs. Suddenly, a line of small text appeared before Lu Changsheng.

“Perfect completion of the Tian Shui Organ Refining Technique, Comprehension +5.”

Lu Changsheng was intrigued and immediately accessed his attribute panel.

Host: Lu Changsheng

Comprehension: 551 (Hidden Dragon in the Abyss)

Silk Organ Sword: Mastered

Tian Shui Organ Refining Technique: Fifth level. Perfect Completion

Nine-Character Thunderous Chant: Perfect (Partial)

On the attribute panel, the Tian Shui Organ Refining Technique had already reached perfect completion. This was the second organ-refining martial art that Lu Changsheng had practiced, a relatively ordinary fifth-tier martial art. Currently, Lu Changsheng had one final organ refining martial art to master. Despite all three martial arts being quite ordinary, continuous organ refinement and the magical Nine-Character Thunderous Chant had made Lu Changsheng’s internal organs exceptionally robust. His strength surpassed many organ refining practitioners.

However, Lu Changsheng felt it wasn’t enough. He could sense that his internal organs could continue to improve, far from reaching their limits.

Of course, organ refinement had no upper limit, and Lu Changsheng didn’t necessarily have to reach the limits. However, as long as organ refinement did not encounter an obvious bottleneck, he would continue practicing. Only when he reached a bottleneck where further practice held little significance would he attempt to breakthrough the life-death bottleneck and advance to the Divine Power Realm.

“Advancing to the Divine Power Realm can wait.”

“Besides, apart from the Venomous Sect’s Divine Power manual, 1 have no other Divine Power Realm martial arts.”

“It might be a good idea to search for a Divine Power Realm martial art in preparation.”

Lu Changsheng muttered quietly. The third organ refining martial art was called the Spring Wind and Rain Organ Refining Technique. Its name was quite exceptional, consisting of six levels, making it slightly stronger than the other two organ-re fining martial arts.

Lu Changsheng estimated that if he mastered this organ-refining martial art to perfection, his internal organs might be sufficiently refined to break through to the Divine Power Realm. In that case, he would need to prepare Divine Power Realm martial arts in advance.

Without a martial art to guide the breakthrough, the difficulty of breaking through the life-death bottleneck would be significantly higher.

Lu Changsheng extended his hand, and a strand of Qi and blood faintly appeared. This Qi and blood resembled silk threads and emanated a subtle, sharp aura, akin to a sharp sword.

“Silk Organ Sword!”

“After all, this is a martial technique I developed myself, and I’ve already comprehended its true essence. I’ve practiced it to completion in just one month, which is quite a reasonable speed.”

“Although it’s not yet perfected, the mastered Silk Organ Sword already possesses considerable power.”

“Qi and blood transformed into silk threads, silk threads like swords…”

Lu Changsheng waved his hand gently.

“Swish.”

In an instant, a strand of Qi and blood transformed into dozens of silk threads, piercing through the table beside him.

Such power was already quite terrifying.

Who would have thought that once soft Qi and blood were released externally, they could still be so formidable?

Lu Changsheng was unsure about the rank of rhe “Silk Organ Sword.”

Previously, he thought it might be a sixth or seventh-tier martial art. However, after witnessing the terrifying power of the “Silk Organ Sword” when he activated it using his Qi and blood, he began to suspect that the “Silk Organ Sword” was more than just a sixth or seventh-tier martial art.

The “Silk Organ Sword” was close to perfection and would likely achieve it in the next few days, perhaps within half a month at most. At that point, the “Silk Organ Sword” would become even more formidable.

“Now, all that’s left is a Divine Power Realm martial art…”

Lu Changsheng contemplated. Divine Power Realm martial arts were extraordinary, and finding one would be a challenge.

Where could he find a Divine Power Realm martial art? Miaoshou Yuan had never produced Divine Power Realm martial artists, and they likely didn’t possess Divine Power Realm martial arts.

What about the Blood Slaughter Sect? That was a possibility, but their origins were mysterious, and Lu Changsheng didn’t know their details. He couldn’t act recklessly.

Furthermore, he couldn’t practice the Divine Power section of the Venom Scripture. He suddenly recalled a familiar figure.

Li Hongzhuang!

Lu Changsheng thought of Li Hongzhuang, who had previously given him Bone-Re fining Realm and Organ-Refining Realm martial arts.

Perhaps, just perhaps, Li Hongzhuang might have a Divine Power Realm martial art too? Although she had disappeared earlier, he had seen her return to Nan Yang Prefecture that day.

With this thought, Lu Changsheng swiftly changed into a different set of clothes. He maintained his black attire and masked face, wielding a short sword, and then entered Li Hongzhuang’s location, quickly vanishing into the night.

Drops of crimson blood fell from the blade to rhe ground.

Li Hongzhuang’s face exuded a murderous aura. Several lifeless bodies lay on the ground next to her.

“The Zhao family really doesn’t give up!”

“I was discovered as soon as 1 returned to Nan Yang City.”

“I’ve changed quite a bit since then. I’m already an Organ-Refining Realm martial artist. Even if I’m slightly injured, I’m not someone the Zhao family’s lackeys can deal with!”

Li Hongzhuang breathed heavily. She had sustained some injuries, visited a physician, and obtained medicine before returning to this courtyard. She thought it was a safe place, but unexpectedly, the Zhao family’s people arrived at her doorstep.

This led to an intense battle.

The Zhao family clearly underestimated her and only sent some Bone-Refining Realm warriors. She killed them all.

Li Hongzhuang was about to leave, but the moment she stepped out of the main gate, she spotted a massive figure gradually emerging from a corner outside.

A burly man held a sheathed knife. His imposing figure exuded a cold and ruthless aura.

As he walked out from the corner, he seemed like a sharp blade being unsheathed. Even in the night, his presence was so dazzling that it couldn’t be ignored.

Upon seeing this figure, Li Hongzhuang’s pupils slightly constricted, and her face instantly changed.

She stared intently at the figure before her and said, “Zhao Qilei of rhe Zhao family, ‘Ferocious Blade’ Zhao Qilei!”

Li Hongzhuang tensed all over. Having spent many years in Nan Yang Prefecture, she naturally knew what kind of person Zhao Qilei was.

Zhao Qilei was one of the Zhao family’s seven children and their most formidable member. He was renowned for his extraordinary knife skills, and his strength was at the pinnacle of Organ-Refining Realm martial artists.

Li Hongzhuang had never expected that as soon as she revealed herself, the Zhao family would send Zhao Qilei after her,

“Why do 1 deserve such an honor? To think that Ferocious Blade” Zhao Qilei personally came forme!”

Li Hongzhuang’s tone remained icy.

Zhao Qilei looked at the pile of bodies and then turned his gaze toward Li Hongzhuang. He spoke calmly, “The last time, the Zhao family suffered some casualties. I personally examined their injuries.”

“They had been wounded by a dagger or a short sword, and all were killed in a single stroke. It should be a quick blade.”

“However, your swordplay just now wasn’t fast enough.”

“Speak up. Who was it that lulled the Zhao family last time?”

Li Hongzhuang’s gaze slightly hardened. It seemed that Zhao Qilei wasn’t here just to deal with her; he was interested in the person who had lulled the Zhao family’s warriors last time.

Or rather, he was intrigued by that person’s swordplay. However, Li Hongzhuang knew that the person who had attacked the Zhao family last time didn’t use a sword but a dagger.

Nevertheless, the speed of that person was extremely rapid.

Even though she had now become an Organ-Refining Realm martial artist, she couldn’t help but feel a shiver down her spine when thinking about the swiftness with which the “Man in Black” had moved.

“Zhao Qilei, spare me your idle talk.”

“I killed Zhao Ruxiao. I killed the Zhao family’s people the last time. The Zhao family’s lackeys on the ground right now were killed by me.”

“Today, I want to see how fast the legendary ‘Ferocious Blade’s’ knife truly is.”

Zhao Qilei was also known for his speed.

Zhao Qilei gazed at Li Hongzhuang, then unsheathed his knife.

Li Hongzhuang felt as though her entire body was being pricked by needles, and she sensed an impending crisis. The attack was too swift for her to even perceive the blade’s movement. She felt as if the edge of the knife was about to cut her skin.

At this moment, although Li Hongzhuang held a sword in her hand, the mere thought of using it seemed like an extravagant wish!
