Chapter 7: Making a Vow Over Wine at the Dam

Inside the Changlong Martial Arts School, two blurry figures kept clashing, each collision full of power. The entire school could feel a strong gust of wind blowing in their faces, which inevitably stung.

Li Si stood to the side, his eyes filled with disbelief, muttering, "Monster, truly a monster. In less than half a month, he has already advanced to the second rank?"

Li Si was somewhat frustrated. They were both second-tier cultivators, so why was there such a big difference between him and these two?

A few days ago, Li Si finally advanced to the second rank. Speaking of which, he had to thank Fu Jiu for the Qi and Blood Fruit that Fu Jiu returned to him. He didn't pay much attention to it at first, but after eating it, he realized that he had made a huge profit. This one Qi and Blood Fruit alone saved him several months of hard training.

Li Si originally thought he would have to wait at least another six months before he could advance to the second tier, but he didn't expect that this fruit would allow him to break through directly. Now he owes Fu Jiu a huge favor.

"Sigh, I was thinking of catching a few more demonic beasts to nourish you, but now, well..."

Li Si's lips twitched; he realized that Fu Jiu's strength had surpassed his own.

Judging from the strength that Fu Jiu has shown so far, he is at least a late-stage second-tier cultivator, otherwise he would not be able to fight Bai Qi to this extent.

"Come again!"

Their fists collided again, creating gusts of wind. The students of Changlong Martial Arts School all kept their distance, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

Even so, the occasional gusts of strong wind that hit my face were extremely painful.

The museum owner stood to one side, looking embarrassed. He was afraid of being caught in the crossfire if he stood too close, but he was also afraid of losing face if he stood too far away.

My god, I'm only level one! If you two monsters want to fight, can't you go outside to fight?

Two figures flashed by. Fu Jiu transformed his palm into a blade, about to strike Bai Qi's neck. The speed and force of his downward strike created several gusts of wind in the air.

"Humph."

Bai Qi snorted coldly, his mind highly focused, a slight smile playing on his lips, clearly enjoying this kind of brutal, hand-to-hand combat.

Raising an arm to block Fu Jiu's attack, he swept his right leg towards the lower body. If the kick landed, even with Fu Jiu's current physical condition, he would be in pain for half a day.

"Awesome!" Fu Jiu laughed loudly, kicked off with both legs, flipped his whole body into the air, took the opportunity to wrap his arms around Bai Qi's neck, and gave him a backflip as soon as he landed.

Bai Qi, as expected of a veteran second-tier expert, was still able to handle the situation with ease. He supported himself on the ground with one hand and leaped up in less than half a breath.

"No fight, no fight."

Fu Jiu exhaled several breaths of hot air, beads of sweat constantly dripping from his forehead, but his face was filled with a joyful expression.

"Your progress surprises me."

Bai Qi looked more relaxed than Fu Jiu at this moment, with only a few fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Not surprised, but horrified? You two monsters," Li Si sighed from the side.

"To be honest, these past two weeks have felt like a dream."

Fu Jiu smiled. Since the Qi and Blood Fruit had been constantly nourishing and tempering every inch of his flesh and blood, he could clearly feel his strength increasing every day. This was even after he deliberately slowed down and kept familiar with his own power.

If he weren't worried about his power growing too fast and getting out of control, he could have advanced to the second tier in just a few days with the help of the Blood and Qi Fruit.

"A long-lost power."

He clenched his fist, and the surging power gave him a sense of peace. Even in his previous life, he had never felt so full of power as he did now.

In his previous life, he received a direct infusion of power in the ruins, and his sixth-tier strength skyrocketed like a rocket, "biu" up in an instant.

Because the power came too easily at the time, his control over it was barely passable.

Now, returning to five years ago and experiencing the pain of weakness once again, he will cherish this power even more than before.

"I used ninety percent of my strength just now, and I almost lost to you. I'm afraid you'll surpass me in a few days." Bai Qi sighed, somewhat wistfully. He had witnessed the birth of a miracle.

"Haha, it's not that easy." Fu Jiu grinned, his joy evident in his eyes.

"Let's go, let's drink. It's my treat today." Fu Jiu was unusually generous today.

Bai Qi and Li Si exchanged a glance. They had a premonition that at this rate, Fu Jiu's strength would soon far surpass theirs.

Carrying a few bottles of ice wine, the three of them found a dam and sat down. Qingshui City has many rivers, and dams are quite common.

The night wind howled by, and the summer breeze was not uncomfortable at all; on the contrary, it was quite pleasant, making their bones feel a little soft.

Fu Jiu picked up the bottle and took a swig. The cold liquor had a strange sour and spicy taste as it went down his throat, but it was surprisingly refreshing.

"Awesome!! Before the spiritual energy revival, we would never have had the chance to drink wine made from this kind of spiritual fruit."

Li Si also took a sip, casually wiped away the wine dripping from the corner of his mouth, and laughed: "Success and failure both come from spiritual energy; living life to the fullest is the only true path."

Bai Qi, who doesn't usually like drinking, broke his vow this time, picked up the bottle and gulped down a few drinks. A rare smile appeared on his usually cold face: "Times have changed, and there are many more unpleasant things. Being able to meet the two of you means my life hasn't been in vain."

Fu Jiu said with deep feeling: "No matter how things change, people with dreams will eventually come together, and this era will embrace all those who have dreams!"

As he finished speaking, Fu Jiu spread his arms wide, as if embracing the whole world.

"Myths are reviving, and countless powerful beings are appearing in the world, but the names of the three of us are conspicuously absent. Having been reborn, it would be a pity not to make a name for ourselves. So, how about it, are you interested in turning this era upside down with me?!"

"To overturn this era?!" Bai Qi was somewhat surprised. Having witnessed Fu Jiu's changes over the past month, he naturally wouldn't dismiss these words as the drunkard's wild talk.

Since Fu Jiu dared to say that, he must have a high degree of confidence.

Li Si, fearless as ever, smashed the wine bottle on the ground with a "smash," and grinned darkly, "I've had enough of this life of catching rabbits all day long!"

"I, Li Si, inherited the mantle of the First Prime Minister of Qin. Back then, I established laws, plotted against the six states, and helped Qin unify the world. How spirited I was! Now, in this chaotic world, I, Li Si, can only catch rabbits here. It's so damn frustrating! If you just nod your heads today, I'll risk my life to go out and make a name for myself with you!!"

Bai Qi smiled, revealing his teeth, his eyes somewhat profound. He thought that it would indeed be a pity not to make a name for himself in this life, and immediately laughed heartily, "How could I be left out of this kind of thing?"

"I, Bai Qi, am descended from a god of slaughter, who once slaughtered millions and was infamous. How can I possibly live up to that reputation in this life?!"

"In this life, let me meet these powerful beings from all the heavens and let the name of the God of Slaughter resound throughout this era!!"

Fu Jiu grinned. He wasn't hesitant to share his secrets with people he trusted.

"I, Fu Jiu, am descended from the Human Emperor Fuxi, who once led the human race to conquer the world in the ancient times, dominating all the heavens. In this life, I will also stand at the pinnacle of the era, quell the chaos, traverse the cycle of reincarnation, and ascend to the supreme divine throne!!"
