102 Inner Qi Warrior 2 (1/2)
Right before so many higher tier cultivators, Zhang Wu Ji is forced to start his Advancement process! A thousand strands of Fighter Qi floats around him waiting for the Weaving Trial, where it will decide the quality of the woven Warrior Qi.
But except himself, nobody surrounding him noticed the differences. His trial is different from all his past attempts, where a thousand strands of Fighter Qi is floating without any support from his Dantian.
This time, every strand of the Fighter Qi is covered with a glue-like substance created by the Natural Energy, where it allowed him to arrange them into a group of 100 strands of Fighter Qi Threads.
And unknown of where is the such an impression came into his mind, Zhang Wu Ji remembered a braiding technique that strengthened the durability of powered cables. The braiding technique is nothing new in his world, where it was used in different industries according to their needs.
They're many different usages in braiding, which can also be called as [Harness] for their incredible flexibility. But at this moment, what was going through Zhang Wu Ji's mind is not how durable it will be nor how flexible it will become.
It was the capacity of power this single braided strand of Warrior Qi can handle!
For a half-quarter of the cultivators above Warrior Tier here, all of them weaved their first stand of Warrior Qi through the easiest method, known as Basic Pattern of Uniform Pattern. The two of them are different, but similar in their own way.
But right before everybody, Zhang Wu Ji tried to do something different once again. And when the word ”Different” is used on Zhang Wu Ji, it means an entirely different meaning.
In braiding, they start from 3 strands up to five or six, differentiated into a spiraling braid or a flat braid. But Zhang Wu Ji's once again overcome everything they know and followed with his own ten-strand spiral braid.
Although it was the first time, it was also the most efficient attempt among all of his countless failures. The ten long Fighter Qi Threads is woven into a sturdy braided thread before returning into his Dantian. The assimilation process soon began, with the Natural Energy started to come inside his and fill his expanded Dantian.
The assimilation equals to expansion on the energy storable inside his Dantian. With this expansion comes a cleansing process that removes the impurities contained inside his body. Added with the Tyrant Martial Body, the effectiveness of this Cleaning Process increased by tenfold.
This force Zhang Wu Ji to removes all the impurities, such as the residue from over-consumption of pills before he entered the path of a 1st Stage Inner Qi Fighter, and also the leftover from low-quality foods that eaten every day.
With his advancement is completed, Zhang Wu Ji immediately went to cleanse his body covered with filth before he appeared in front of the guest once again. His height increased by 6cm, turning him into a youth of 1.76 meters in height.
After the Cleansing Process, his skin is one tone lighter than how it was.
”Third brother...” the two elder brothers of his came forth to see how much has he changed, but Zhang Qing Feng's reaction is very abnormal. He took a piece of Identification Plaque out from his pocket and pointed at the youngest child.
”Purple?” Zhang Qing Feng shocked. He pointed the plaque next on his eldest and second child, but both of them appeared blue. Based on his understanding, the Identification Plaque also works as a Martial Body Scale.
The color starts from white as a Non-cultivable body into green color, which given to the talented individuals as a Mortal Martial Body. Next comes King Martial Body, bearing the Yellow color to Emperor Martial Body, with a blue color.
Still, what does the purple color means? Does this mean his kid possessed a Saint Tier body now? Won't this means, his gene is so excellent that all three of his children are Emperor Martial Body and Saint Martial Body?
And what they did not know is that the Eastern Imperial Kingdom has dispatched hundreds of personnel to start searching for people with Zhang as their surname for an inspection to search for the person that activated their Royal Bloodline!
But one question remained in between of this.
If Zhang Wu Ji is currently a Saint-Class Tyrant Martial Body, does this means that all Zhang's carried the gene of Tyrant Martial Body too?
”Eldest Brother, Second Brother, I'm fine. It was amazing... Now I know why they say that by entering into the 11th Stage of Inner Qi Warrior, one will be counted as a part of the real cultivator.” Zhang Wu Ji replied to his two brothers.
”Good. But remember, from this moment onwards, your Inner Qi will only recover from meditation and medication. Do not recklessly fight like how it was because a quarter of all Inner Qi Warrior died before they reach their 12th Stage of Inner Qi Warrior.”
”Here, take this...” Zhang Wu Yuan distributed two pills, one for each of his younger brothers as their life-threatening precaution. They're known as Wailing Dan, a potent medication that not only recovers all Warrior Qi the cultivator possesses, but also increase the efficiency of their Warrior Qi by 50%.
Although their medicinal properties work wondrously, the Wailing Dan is, in fact, a Forbidden Pill. The medicinal properties worked only for half an hour before the user is bitten by the Inner Demon. Luckily, a meditation before the medicine strength is gone reduces the possibility by 10%.
The seven colored clouds soon vanish to indicates that they're in the first day of this Ping An Year again. Gong is beaten throughout the city to announce the beginning of the year, where all of the businesses are closed for their first and only rest before starting their business on the second day.
On the fifth day, Zhang Wu Yuan returned to his master's side to continue with his daily responsibility. Similar to his eldest brother, Zhang Wu Ji has to return to the Seven Star Master Hall as well to handle the handover of operation to people in charge before he enters the Seven Heaven Sect.
As for Zhang Wu Chou and Yang Ling Long, the two stayed in the Li Jiang City until the fifteenth of the month before headed to the Yang's Household.
On the sixteenth day, Zhang Wu Ji rides the slightly modified Qiyue Flying Sword with the identity of Qian Long and visits the Golden Carapace City's outer zone, where the former continues with his arrangement. After staying here for such a long time, Yin Li finally completes his persuasion to advice Jing Bu Wen to quit his businesses and focus on his profession.
This persuasion maybe only means one less corporation working along with the others in their Golden Carapace City. But for the newly reformed Seven Star County, the complete move over of all the staff from this corporation to Seven Star County equals to an increment of 5,000 miners, 1,200 blacksmiths, and over 15,000 increase of population.
He considered about the pro and cons for their action. And after the discussion, Zhang Wu Ji agreed with the moving quota of 1 complete Corporation yearly, with a maximum of two corporations in one year. With his mission is ended, Li Yin is allowed to return to the Seven Star County, while monitoring the performances and attitude of the people migrated under him.
Five days before the end of the first month, Zhang Wu Ji meets up with Meng Ran. The latter expected his arrival but did not think that it was this today. Of course, under her guidance, they went to a location void of people and wild beast.
”When are you leaving?” she asked.
”Three days later.” Zhang Wu Ji answered her question honestly as it will take him two days to reach the Wen Yang City.
”And you cannot bring me there?”
”Yes, I am not allowed to bring anyone with me, which means that my eight attendants, my senior brother or sisters, and you are not allowed to follow me to the Seven Heaven Sect,” he answered her next question.
”Are you coming back?”
”Of course! My family, sect, master, and everyone is here along with you. I will come back no matter what.” he took a proper stare at the lady sitting beside him.
”I'll wait for you...” as she tried to complete this sentence, a gust of wind blew past where they seated and covered her soft and gentle voice. Because Zhang Wu Ji did not get her word completely, he asked her with a single word.
”What?”
”I say I'll wait for you with the others!” her face blushed as she replied to him. Following from that reply, she turned her view to a different angle. The two of them remained silent for a while until the sky is dark. Although the ground is illuminated by the glow from the stars, the darkness still caused him to fail at looking on her feature.
”It's late,” he said.
”I know.”
