Infiltrating the world of cultivation

After returning to his residence, Wang Chao immediately went into seclusion, and he did not need to personally handle the affairs of the mine.

With Zuo Qiuzhen around, everything will be taken care of. He won't need to mine the minerals himself; his monthly quota will be delivered on his behalf.

The dynasty's mission is to enhance its strength in preparation for the market auction at the end of the month.

The only martial art that the dynasty currently possesses is a mortal technique called the Qingfeng Sword Technique, which is matched with a set of footwork called the Treading Wind Step.

Windwalk is a short-distance maneuvering technique that pursues extreme speed. Compared with long-distance sprinting, Windwalk focuses more on short-distance positioning.

When Wang Chao first started practicing, he couldn't fully grasp the techniques yet, so he could only improve his proficiency by following the routines.

The significance of martial arts routines lies not only in their aesthetic appeal and physical fitness, but also in enabling practitioners to build a solid foundation and better understand the martial art.

The martial arts routines popular around the world have been simplified and have lost their practical significance. They are more often spread as a way to improve physical fitness.

Wang Chao once witnessed a true disciple of an ancient martial arts family apply traditional martial arts in actual combat, resulting in terrifying destructive power.

In ring matches, Western fighting techniques may have an advantage, but in street fights or melee combat, the advantages of Chinese martial arts immediately become apparent.

Boxing legend Mike Tyson once said that he was confident he could fight Bruce Lee in the ring, but he might be killed by Bruce Lee in a street fight!

call out!

The figure of the dynasty shifted and moved in front of the residence, sometimes up and sometimes down, unpredictable.

At first, the dynasty's speed was not too fast, and it could be detected by the naked eye. But later, the speed became faster and faster, and it even formed blurry afterimages.

This nine-story ancient pagoda is indeed extraordinary. At night, Wang Chao would enter the nine-story ancient pagoda to study the Qingfeng Sword Technique and the Treading Wind Step.

During the day, Wang Chao would cultivate his spiritual power, consolidate his cultivation, and integrate the gains from the night.

Before they knew it, half the month had passed. The winter was bitterly cold, and the dynasty stood with its hands behind its back in front of its residence. All of this seemed too ethereal, too unreal.

Once upon a time, Wang Chao was a college student. Due to his special physical condition, he joined the special forces and trained hard every day.

He dreamed of conquering battlefields, never imagining that he would end up as an undercover agent in the world of cultivation.

The undercover agent's mission is to let him do as he pleases, because the only clue is that indescribable golden liquid. This undercover mission will become the most confusing undercover mission in history.

Until it becomes powerful enough, this is destined to be a solo journey.

There are only four transmigrators from Earth who can be called players. The relationship between the four is complicated. They can be considered fellow countrymen or enemies and rivals.

The dynasty had no idea where the others were, what they were doing, whether they had come into contact with cultivators, or whether they had innate spiritual roots.

Communication devices from Earth don't work well here, and the dynasty doesn't dare to take them out and use them easily.

This cultivation civilization should not be underestimated; once exposed, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The most important thing now is to improve my strength and then enter the sect behind this spirit mine.

According to Zuo Qiuzhen's description, this spirit mine came from the Qinghui Sword Sect, which is a very powerful righteous immortal sect.

Wang Chao still didn't quite understand the term "righteous path." Did the cultivation sects really have to be divided into positive and negative?

Now, within the Spirit Mine, they are subject to the control of others at every turn. Even figures like Han Dianli and Zuo Qiuzhen only enjoy relative freedom.

In front of others, they were powerful mining tycoons, but in Zhao Yuanbao's eyes, they were just two extra managers.

Don't assume that the presence of two powerful miners will affect the mining speed; in fact, the opposite is true.

It was precisely because of their control that the output of the No. 3 mining area was relatively stable. Not only the No. 3 mining area, but the situation in the other mining areas was also generally the same.

The dynasty suspected that Zhao Yuanbao was not worried at all about Han Dianli and Zuoqiu Zhen embezzling spirit stones. Even if there were some deductions, Zhao Yuanbao would find them out.

Take, for example, that rare ceremony, a cultivation method costing less than a hundred spirit stones, which Zhao Yuanbao demanded at a terrifying price of a thousand spirit stones.

Perhaps this is also one of Zhao Yuanbao's methods. Zhao Yuanbao is a legitimate cultivator, and his knowledge is extremely extensive.

By simply producing some mainland Chinese goods, they can easily fool the crowd into a state of blissful ignorance, as the crowd, being relatively inexperienced, are naturally unaware of the intricacies involved.

After half a month of cultivation, the spiritual energy in Wang Chao's body had become slightly stronger, but the progress was still very slow.

This is still the result of using a large amount of spirit stones. Once the assistance of spirit stones is lost, the progress of the dynasty will only be slower.

Wave!

A slight tremor came from the Vajra Formation in front of the courtyard. Wang Chao snapped out of his thoughts, looking rather surprised.

It's extremely rare for someone to show up here at this time of year. No one has been looking for me for the past two weeks, so this sudden visit must be up to no good!

Through the Vajra Formation, Wang Chao saw a martial arts miner squatting on the ground, clutching his forehead and looking pained.

Between his fingers, one could vaguely see a large, bluish-purple blister.

Wang Chao smiled. He recognized the newcomer; he was one of Zuo Qiuzhen's subordinates, a martial artist with mid-stage acquired cultivation.

He was in the same wave that brought him to Nanshan Xian Mine.

When Wang Chao saw the martial artist clutching his forehead and squatting on the ground, unable to recover for a long time, he found it amusing.

When he first encountered the Vajra Formation, he was also completely overwhelmed.

Thankfully, he walked; if he had been running, his nose might have been broken.

Seeing the mid-stage acquired martial artist with his head bowed, a patch of crimson between his nostrils, and an expression of utter despair, Wang Chao couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

That last blow must have hit him squarely, striking a nerve. Even now, the martial artist hasn't recovered and is still crouching on the ground in pain.

After a long while, the miner finally came to his senses, shook his bewildered head, and remembered the purpose of his trip. He slowly said:

"Master Wang, the general wants me to give you this challenge."

Wang Chao was somewhat taken aback by what he heard. The title "Immortal Wang" was indeed a bit shocking. However, seeing the miner's respectful expression, Wang Chao didn't think much of it and simply assumed that he was just following local customs.

Wang Chao was somewhat surprised to hear that someone had issued a challenge to him. Clearly, he had never heard of anyone actually wanting to challenge him. His eyes lit up immediately.

"Oh? A challenge? Whose challenge?"

"This challenge was issued by Zhang Quan. Today at the mine, Zhang Quan declared that he would crush Wang Xianren. He also said—"

The miners in the mid-stages of the day after tomorrow hesitated at this point.

"What else is there to say? Speak freely."

Wang Chao smiled; upon hearing that it was Empress Zhang, he was not surprised.

After all, they are people who rarely perform ceremonies; it would be strange if they didn't cause some trouble.

He said that Wang Xianren was a coward who only knew how to stay in his residence and dared not go out to fight.

After the miner finished speaking, he lowered his head. After all, the dynasty had not been out for almost half a month. Not to mention Han Dianli's people, even Zuo Qiuzhen's people were a bit uncertain.

Everyone hoped that the dynasty would go out to fight, as it was a matter of face and could not be tolerated.

"What did my elder brother say?"

The dynasty did not take its anger out on the miner who delivered the message because of his two provocative remarks, nor did it believe his one-sided account.

"The general said, everything is in accordance with the immortal king."

The miners in the mid-stage of the day after tomorrow breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the dynasty was not angry with them. It seemed that the dynasty was easy to deal with.

"Is that so?"

A smile appeared on Wang Chao's lips. Then, with a tearing sound, he ripped the challenge letter to shreds and casually tossed it into the air.

Then he quickly drew his sword and used the Qingfeng Sword Technique to shred the challenge letter to smithereens.

"Just tell people I don't have time."

The dynasty had no interest in such a thankless and arduous task.

Not only would it expose your strength, but it could also arouse suspicion from others, which is really not worth it.
