Chapter 96: True Qi Enhancement! Power Breaks Through 30,000 Jin!
Chapter 96: True Qi Enhancement! Power Breaks Through 30,000 Jin!
In Huai'an Prefecture, at the N Battalion.
Qin Zheng was filled with astonishment as he observed the substance that had formed within his energy core.
The essence energy of a Great Grandmaster was formed by the fusion of Heaven-Earth Energy, mental energy, and life essence qi, a combination of three.
But at this moment, within his energy core, this substance was merely a condensation of mental energy and life essence qi.
Lacking Heaven-Earth Energy, it couldn't be considered essence energy. But what was it then?
Qin Zheng was curious, and with a thought, he drew this substance from his energy core, guiding it along his energy channels, and it appeared in the palm of his hand.
However, the moment it left his body, the substance instantly dissipated in his palm.
Qin Zheng's eyebrows furrowed; could this substance not manifest outside the body like essence energy?
Then, what use was it?
So, Qin Zheng concentrated his mind on his energy core, observing the continuous generation of this substance within.
He wanted to see if, with a larger quantity, it could manifest outside his body.
And just as it accumulated to a certain extent...
The substance began to detach from the energy core, and like water, it flowed into his energy channels.
In the instant he circulated it throughout his body, Qin Zheng felt as if his body had been instantly fortified!
This substance could actually provide an immediate and tangible enhancement to his body?!
Intense joy flashed in Qin Zheng's eyes.
But Qin Zheng's eyebrows twitched slightly, and with a thought, he stopped the substance from flowing into his energy channels.
He could feel that his recently enhanced body quickly reverted to its original state.
In other words, this enhancement was only temporary.
If this substance were to diminish, he would revert to his original state.
Qin Zheng's eyes reflected deep contemplation.
Although the enhancement was temporary, it didn't diminish the joy in Qin Zheng's heart.
As long as this substance was abundant, the duration of his enhancement could be indefinitely extended!
Moreover, for Qin Zheng, the primary constraint was his body's inability to withstand greater power. But if he could use this substance to fortify his body, could he unleash strength beyond his current limits?
Without hesitation, Qin Zheng released his restraints once more, allowing the substance to enter his energy channels.
As his body was fortified again, Qin Zheng divided his mental energy, silently chanting, "Enhance Martial Arts - Bodhimanda Wisdom Technique!"
Buzz!!!
In an instant, powerful energy surged through Qin Zheng's body like a flood released from a dam.
One layer, two layers, three layers...
One thousand jin, two thousand jin, three thousand jin...
Qin Zheng's strength broke through his limits, reaching ever-higher levels!
After several breaths, when that familiar oppressive feeling reappeared, he stopped the enhancement.
At this moment, Qin Zheng's eyes shone with divine light, and he stood up, unable to resist testing his newfound strength.
The 28th layer of the Bodhimanda Wisdom Technique!
Thirty thousand jin of unmatched power!
With the help of that substance, Qin Zheng had taken his strength to a new level!
A full thirty thousand jin, an entire ten thousand jin more than when he fought the dragon demon!
This power!
If he returned to Cold Avoidance Pool to slay the dragon demon, he would undoubtedly be able to defeat it more swiftly and decisively!
He wouldn't even need Qin Li Hu's final spear strike!
Joy surged within Qin Zheng's heart.
Breaking through thirty thousand jin meant his strength had entered a new realm!
But Qin Zheng's thoughts shifted, and he stopped the substance from flowing into his energy channels.
His aura, at this moment, also rapidly diminished, returning to its initial state.
Since the enhancing effect of this substance was so potent, it shouldn't be wasted at this time.
After all, this substance required the combination of mental energy and life essence qi to form, and mental energy was finite, not an infinite and inexhaustible resource.
Therefore, not a single strand of this substance could be wasted.
Qin Zheng thought this, then turned his attention to the substance.
This thing couldn't manifest outside the body, nor did it possess any attribute power; it could only circulate within the energy channels, fortifying the physical body.
He decided to call it True Qi!
In the martial arts dramas he had watched in his past life, the reason those martial arts masters were so powerful was because of the True Qi circulating within their bodies, enhancing their strength.
The substance he had generated was very similar, yet it wasn't the essence energy of this world, so he named it True Qi!
With a thought, Qin Zheng gave this substance its name.
After clarifying the matter of True Qi, Qin Zheng refocused his attention on the advancement of the Secret Perception Mental Book.
His senses heightened, perception expanded, and the intensity of his mental power increased once more.
Most importantly!
At this moment, within Qin Zheng's mind, there seemed to be a door-like existence.
A stream of mental energy flowed continuously through this door, entering Qin Zheng's mind and surging towards his brow.
This meant that from this moment on, his mental energy would be inexhaustible, an endless supply!
In that instant, Qin Zheng's first thought was of True Qi!
If mental energy could be continuously generated, and life essence qi could be continuously produced through the life wheel, then his True Qi could be endless, an infinite source!
Ecstatic joy erupted within him, even more intense than before!
It was no wonder that it required 100 jin of merit to advance the Secret Perception Mental Book from small success to great success!
The ability to continuously increase and strengthen mental energy was already beyond the scope of martial arts!
Moreover, Qin Zheng could sense that after this advancement, the place where mental energy was stored in his brow had become more abundant.
He could vaguely sense that something was gestating within, and when it emerged, it might bring about a significant change in him!
Qin Zheng thought to himself.
Suddenly, he lifted his head and gazed towards the direction of the entrance to the tent.
Before long, Liu Mingyi, clad in armor, entered.
Qin Zheng's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "Are there demons causing trouble?"
Dressed in this manner, it was clear that he was about to embark on another mission.
"We've received news that there's a demon causing trouble on the outskirts of Huai'an Prefecture. I suspect that with the news of the Grand General's absence, many demons outside Huai'an Prefecture have become emboldened," Liu Mingyi explained.
Liu Mingyi nodded and spoke.
Then, seeing Qin Zheng's puzzled expression, he further clarified, "Your strength far surpasses ours, and you should be stationed at the N Character Camp, just like the Grand General."
"Only when a demon appears that we can't handle should you take action."
Only then did Qin Zheng relax his brows and lightly nod.
"I came to inform you that the Grand General has been sent to the Commander-in-Chief, and his life should be out of danger. You can rest assured."
Everyone was intelligent enough to understand why the Grand General had sustained such severe injuries.
However, neither Liu Mingyi nor the others from the N Character Camp held any grudges against Qin Zheng.
Ever since he joined the N Character Camp, he had tirelessly traveled around slaying demons, even piercing through a Demon Mountain, striking fear into the hearts of the demons in Huai'an Prefecture.
Therefore, their resentment was directed solely at Yongle Prefecture.
Liu Mingyi's visit to inform Qin Zheng was to ease his burden.
Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng's heart warmed, and a smile appeared on his face. "Thank you!"
Liu Mingyi waved his hand and left the tent without further delay.
In the following days, Qin Zheng joined the other Deputy Generals in guarding the N Character Camp.
Among the five Deputy Generals of the N Character Camp, Wang Weiqian was escorting the Grand General to the Commander-in-Chief, and Liu Mingyi was away on a mission.
The remaining three—Chu Yu, Wang Yuan, and Jia Zhou—were all seasoned Grandmasters with considerable strength.
Together with Qin Zheng, the four Deputy Generals ensured that the demons within Huai'an Prefecture remained quiet for the time being.
However, several days later...
Qin Zheng sat in his tent, and a bad premonition stirred in his heart.
When Deputy Generals went on missions, they were always swift and efficient, never dragging their feet.
Although Liu Mingyi's mission was on the outskirts of Huai'an Prefecture, a remote location, it shouldn't have taken this long!
Just as he was thinking this, a Demon Slayer Commander rushed in and said, "General Qin, General Chu requests your presence, it's urgent!"
Indeed!
Qin Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately stood up, grabbed his weapon, and swiftly exited his tent.
Using his lightfooted skills, he arrived at Chu Yu's tent in a matter of breaths.
At that moment, in addition to Chu Yu, Wang Yuan and Jia Zhou were also present.
Their faces were grave, indicating a significant event had occurred! Without time for pleasantries, Chu Yu spoke, "Liu Mingyi is in trouble!"
"It's not an ordinary demon but a Great Demon of the Demon King Realm that has appeared on the outskirts of Huai'an Prefecture!"
The Demon King Realm, equivalent to the Human Grandmasters! Qin Zheng's eyes darkened, and he turned to leave, shouting, "Prepare the horses!"
At this moment, with Qin Lihu absent, only Qin Zheng could deal with this demon.
A soldier, who had been waiting outside the tent, quickly brought out a warhorse and respectfully said, "General Qin!"
Qin Zheng nodded, swiftly mounted the horse, gripped the reins, and urged it forward with his legs.
The location Liu Mingyi had gone to was already known to Qin Zheng.
The warhorse galloped, kicking up a cloud of dust.
On the outskirts of Huai'an Prefecture, at Rock Shadow Mountain.
Inside a cave.
A three-meter-tall ape demon casually wielded a long spear that seemed rather thin for its size.
"Too light! Too light!"
After a few breaths, it shook its head and casually threw the spear.
The spear spun in the air like a shadow and finally plunged straight into the ground.
Next to where the spear landed, a bloodied corpse lay.
"Aren't you afraid that someone from the N Character Camp will come after you for this?"
At that moment, a fox demon slinked into the cave, its body swaying seductively as it spoke to the ape demon.
The ape demon scoffed and said, "Qin Lihu is seriously injured and not here, the Little Tyrant's whereabouts are unknown, and there's not a single skilled fighter in Huai'an Prefecture. Who should I be afraid of?"
"Moreover, with more and more powerful demons coming, the N Character Camp might not even be able to protect itself. Why would they dare to come after me?"
The fox demon, with a seductive tone, said, "Oh? But I've heard that there's a young man named Qin Zheng in Huai'an Prefecture, a ruthless killer who has the demons trembling. Aren't you afraid of him?"
The ape demon stood up, its face filled with disdain. "If he dares to come, I'll defeat him in two moves!"
