Invincible!

Chapter 32 Fighting
One day later.

Li Xian felt the qi and blood in his body flowing together in a powerful and surging manner, and he understood his current state.

"Complete Blood Transfusion and Marrow Cleansing".

Beyond the initial stage of blood transfusion and marrow cleansing, there is also the concept of perfection.

This means further refining one's Qi and blood until reaching one's own limit.

However, such limits are essentially meaningless.

Just like eating until you're full or stuffed.

The latter may be more resistant to hunger than the former, but when food is plentiful, there will not be much difference between the two.

The advantage of perfecting the Blood Transformation skill lies in being able to outlast a martial artist who has mastered the Blood Transformation skill, by relying on one's own longer life force.

Often, only those martial artists who are stuck at the stage of perfect harmony and flawless body will helplessly continue to waste time and effort before finally reaching the stage of perfect blood transfusion.

Those who are truly capable...

Li Xian directly absorbed Qi and formed a pill.

The body's Qi and blood circulate spontaneously, following the same primordial energy as the Qi-forming elixir.

One Sunday, two Sundays, three Sundays...

The rich experience accumulated from embracing qi to form an elixir enabled Li Xian to circulate qi and blood in a self-sustaining cycle after only six cycles, allowing it to operate spontaneously and endlessly.

"The whole body is without flaws."

He looked calm.

He showed neither joy nor sorrow at reaching this level of martial arts prowess, which is equivalent to being among the best in the world.

When he obtained the Five Elements Manual and glimpsed the true meaning of the state of perfect purity, he knew that this step would be a natural progression for him and would not be an obstacle.

He circulated his Qi throughout his body, carefully sensing the changes brought about by the complete elimination of impurities in his body.

Under this cyclical operation, the energy leaking out of the body is significantly reduced.

More externally supplied energy is effectively utilized, accumulated, and compressed little by little.

"It seems... to be a large pill."

If he realizes something.

In the previous life, the person attempted to form an elixir by embracing qi, but due to insufficient tonics and a weak foundation, the body could not undergo blood and marrow purification. Although later generations were exceptionally talented and pioneered the method of forming an elixir by embracing qi, they merely condensed the essence and qi into a ball, forming a small elixir.

His body is flawless, yet he uses his physical body as a elixir, circulating his vital energy throughout the body, creating an endless cycle of life.

It is holding the Great Elixir of Humanity!
Compared to the former, the human body's elixir is more promising.

However, in terms of the difficulty of cultivation, the exquisite skill required to forcibly form an elixir when one's foundation is insufficient is far greater than that required for a complete and flawless human elixir.

"The former is equivalent to carving a hundred characters on a one-centimeter bamboo strip, while the latter is equivalent to carving a thousand characters on a ten-centimeter bamboo strip. The difference in skill and difficulty is more than tenfold."

Li Xian sensed every subtle change in his body.

When the vital energy no longer overflows, it accumulates within the body and will naturally compress gradually.

When compressed to a certain degree, cultivators can manipulate their Qi and blood, transforming the originally ethereal Qi and blood sensation into controllable Qi and blood power.

Reaching this stage signifies the attainment of the state of perfect purity.

Next, one should unite the spirit and essence, refine the essence into qi, and use the false to cultivate the true, so that the qi of essence and blood can be transformed into true qi that can be manifested.

Cultivate true qi...

"Master extraordinary energy!"

If one could create a three-foot-high wall of internal energy, one could remain calm and composed even when facing a barrage of gunfire.

"Next, we need to master Qi and Blood. Zhang Shuheng, and the Blood Eagles led by the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang, I hope you have all mastered Qi and Blood without any flaws, so that I can truly experience the ferocity and devastation of Qi and Blood entering the body."

Li Xian thought to himself.

His eyes gleamed with growing anticipation for the reinforcements the Marquis's residence had invited.

……

The following evening, Li Xian was completely unharmed.

A group of thirteen riders, weary from their journey, roamed freely without restraint.

Pedestrians and merchants passing by hurriedly made way for them.

Some peddlers carrying goods were unable to dodge in time and were directly knocked away by the horses, their internal organs ruptured, and their fate unknown.

This alone shows just how domineering these thirteen riders were.

Thirteen riders swept through the dust and stopped at the Wuli Pavilion outside Lijiang City.

"Shut up!"

The thirteen tall horses suddenly stopped.

The dust kicked up swirls and pelted the dozen or so people waiting outside the pavilion.

Zhao Tianming, Fang Rui, Bai Yupan...

The powerful figures from the Marquis of Dingfeng's Mansion and the Prince of Yueyang's Mansion along the Lijiang River were all among them.

Despite being covered in dust, Zhao Tianming and Bai Yupan, the two martial arts masters who had undergone blood transfusion and marrow cleansing, showed no dissatisfaction. Instead, they smiled broadly and said, "Boss Blood Eagle and all the heroes have come from afar and must be tired from your journey. We have specially prepared warm-up wine and some special snacks from the Li River for you. Please come into the pavilion and rest for a while..."

The Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang have arrived.

However, the two men, who had undergone a complete transformation, did not receive a warm response from the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang.

Blood Eagle, the leader, remained mounted on his magnificent horse, worth a thousand taels of silver, showing no intention of dismounting.

His gaze swept over the group—who, to avoid attracting the Zhou family's attention with a large entourage, had only prepared a single blue silk parasol and a few insignia—and this impeccably dressed first-rate expert indifferently said, "Alright, it's getting dark, let's not waste any more time. Where is Li Xian? Lead the way." Zhao Tianming was taken aback, then quickly said, "Blood Eagle, you've all traveled thousands of miles and must be exhausted from days of travel. Why not rest for a day? Tomorrow morning, our two prefectures' experts will join you, and we'll unleash our full force to crush them into dust with overwhelming force!"

"Take a day off?"

Blood Eagle looked down at the martial arts master who had undergone blood transfusion and marrow cleansing: "The Zhou family is quite well-known in the Li River. How could they not know that we have come to the city with such a large force? And with the reputation of the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang, once they find out that we are coming, they will definitely flee in panic! At that time, if that Li Xian hides in the deep mountains and forests, who can find him? Rely on you?"

"Stop talking nonsense! The Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang have all arrived. What are you dawdling for? Prepare your men to lead the way and prepare the money you promised us! As for that Li Xian, we'll take care of him!"

"A burly man behind Blood Eagle said impatiently."

Zhao Tianming glanced at him.

This is the fourth one, Bald Eagle.

A master who has achieved the ultimate in blood transfusion and marrow cleansing, his White Tiger Corpse-Carrying Blade has reached its pinnacle.

He once fought head-on and killed two experts at the Blood Exchange and Marrow Cleansing Realm, showing his unparalleled ferocity.

only……

Considering the crucial nature of this battle, Zhao Tianming still steeled himself and said, "Li Xian and Zhou Juechen are both at the Longquan Martial Arts Hall. They are not weaklings, and they are accompanied by many Zhou family experts. They have the advantage in numbers. Why don't you all rest here for a while? I will have Elder Bai contact Commander Zhang of the Wangfu and have him bring a small number of elites to join you..."

"waste!"

At this, Blood Eagle showed no mercy and shouted, "Don't you understand the principle of speed in war?! If you're going to kill, you should act decisively, swift as the wind and as fast as thunder!"

This is the style of the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang!
This is also their survival rule that allows them to run rampant in Luoyang!

"Lead the way into the city!"

He directly and forcefully issued the order.

He seemed to regard Zhao Tianming and Bai Yupan, who had undergone a complete blood transfusion and marrow cleansing, as subordinates whom he could boss around.

This attitude made both martial artists at the Blood Rejuvenation and Marrow Cleansing Realm look displeased.

However, they ultimately needed their help, and given that the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang were indeed fearsome and capable of wiping out entire families at the drop of a hat, the two martial artists at the Blood Exchange and Marrow Cleansing Realm dared not retaliate.

Zhao Tianming immediately mounted his horse and said, "I will now lead the way for you all."

Bai Yupan, standing to the side, was holding his breath, but he also knew that the bigger picture had to take precedence.

He simply gave one of the guards of the Prince's Palace an order: "Immediately notify Commander Zhang to lead his elite troops to join us. Do not make a large fuss, lest you alert the enemy."

"Yes."

The guards of the Prince's Palace, having received the order, immediately responded.

At that moment, the group of thirteen riders grew to fifteen, and they spurred their horses onward toward Lijiang City.

Soon, the towering city walls of Lijiang City came into view at the edge of the horizon.

However, just as they were about to ride directly into the city, Blood Eagle, the leader, seemed to sense something and suddenly raised his hand.

The next moment, the twelve riders, as if they were the most elite cavalry, obeyed orders without question and stopped their horses at the same time.

This unexpected turn of events nearly caused Zhao Tianming and Bai Yupan, who were following behind, to crash into their group.

Even though they managed to stop the horses quickly, a flurry of activity was still inevitable.

Blood Eagle glanced at the two men, but quickly turned his gaze to the two figures standing on the official road not far from the city gate.

His years of living a life of constant danger made him keenly aware of the danger emanating from the two men.

At that very moment, Zhao Tianming, who had just stopped his horse, immediately recognized the two: "Zhou Juechen!? Next to him... is Li Xian!?"

"Did they learn of our arrival and try to escape, only to be caught by us?"

The white jade plate was somewhat surprised and doubtful.

"No!"

Blood Eagle said indifferently, "They've come here to die!"

The leader immediately dismounted, taking a saber with him, and his gaze fell on Zhou Juechen, who was a year older: "A newly promoted top-tier expert in Jiangzhou? What a pity, after all this hard work to get to this point, he's going to become a dead man today!"

"Big brother, I'll deal with Zhou Juechen!? I've long wanted to experience the skills of a master with flawless defenses!"

The fourth brother, Bald Eagle, licked his lips and said with burning eyes.

But his burning fighting spirit was extinguished by a single glance from Blood Eagle.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength.

The Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang have been able to run rampant until now by being domineering towards the weak and cautious towards the strong; this is their ironclad rule of survival.

No matter how newly promoted Zhou Juechen is, he is still a powerful expert with no weaknesses. Does Lao Si really think that he can compete with such an expert with his White Tiger Corpse-Holding Blade?

"Li Xian is our main target. I'll kill Zhou Juechen. Li Xian is yours to handle!"

Blood Eagle said, his sharp gaze sweeping over the third, fourth, and sixth brothers: "I know you can kill him easily! But go easy on him, don't actually kill him with one blow, I want him alive!"

"Understood, boss..."

The vulture immediately agreed.

But before he could finish speaking, Zhou Juechen and Li Xian, who were blocking his way, had already made their move.

However, to everyone's surprise, Zhou Juechen, a newly promoted top-tier expert, was clearly targeting Bald Eagle and his group, while Li Xian...

His target was none other than Blood Eagle, the leader of the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang!
"Duizi?"

Blood Eagle instantly guessed his intention.

The next second, the top-tier expert, whose body was flawlessly immaculate, suddenly turned ruthless: "Trade with me?! Fine! I'll grant your wish!"

He strode forward, heading straight to confront Li Xian.
