[Experience value: 16460]

[Pending Claim (Bronze Body Skill)]

"Let life take its course, like a straw raincoat in the misty rain!"

Wearing a raincoat, Xiao Bieli rode his horse through the rain, his face beaming with undisguised joy as he looked at the tens of thousands of experience points on the system panel.

Because he didn't get enough experience points at once, he chose to improve his external martial arts and swordsmanship first.

But now that my experience points have exceeded 10,000, I can finally try to break through to the fifth rank!

Although Song Kang's internal energy couldn't break through his defenses, it still caused him internal injuries.

After confirming that no one was following him

Ignoring the increasingly heavy rain, Xiao Bieli dismounted and let the rain drip from his raincoat.

"Extract the Bronze Body Technique!"

boom!

Countless cultivation methods for the Bronze Body Technique flooded into Xiao Bieli's mind, along with his experience in cultivating the Bronze Body Technique.

【Bronze Body Skill (5/100)】

After a few breaths,

Xiao Bieli opened his eyes and spoke softly:

"Just as I expected, the Bronze Body Skill is a type of external martial art, similar to the Iron Shirt Skill."

"Iron Shirt mainly defends against swords and blades, while Bronze Body Technique is designed to counter blunt weapons and internal energy damage; they have different focuses!"

"It does share some similarities with the Thirteen Bodyguards' external martial arts, but there are also some complementary aspects!"

"However, now that I have enough experience points, I still need to improve my cultivation level first!"

"Consuming 5,000 experience points to upgrade the Yi Jin Jing!"

[Realm: Peak Sixth Rank]

[Yi Jin Jing (41/100)]

boom!

A surge of pure true energy flowed from his body, rushing towards his limbs and bones. The true energy within his body was being continuously purified, and it was already close to the point of transforming true energy into qi.

Xiao Bieli took a deep breath.

"Consume another 5,000 experience points to upgrade the Yi Jin Jing!"

【Yi Jin Jing (46/100)】

boom!

Another surge of pure true energy flowed out, and the true energy within the body was continuously being purified and compressed, with its quality becoming higher and higher.

However, it's still a little short of opening up the seven orifices and transforming true qi into qi.

"As expected, advancing from the sixth rank to the fifth rank, one level, cannot possibly require only a small amount of experience!"

"Consume another 5,000 experience points to upgrade the Yi Jin Jing!"

[Yi Jin Jing (51/100)]

boom!

The pure true energy surged out again, part of it flowing towards his internal organs, constantly tempering them, while the other part flowed towards his eyes.

Click!

The eye orifices were opened.

[Realm Level: Early Stage of Fifth Rank!]

Rumble!

In that instant, Xiao Bieli felt his vision clear and bright. His eyesight, which had previously only been able to see within a hundred meters due to the torrential rain, suddenly improved, allowing him to see things four or five hundred meters away.

He gently raised his hand!

Swish!

A blade of energy shot out and cleaved three trees, each as thick as a thigh, ten feet away in half.

"Finally, I've reached the fifth rank!"

Xiao Bieli spoke softly:

"The eye orifice corresponds to the liver among the five internal organs. Opening the eye orifice also strengthens my liver."

"Indeed, the path of martial arts is a process from 'human' to 'perfect human.' Once I cultivate to the peak of the fifth rank, I will strengthen all my internal organs and seven orifices. My true energy will form a small circulation within my body. Coupled with my powerful physique, I will be virtually without any weaknesses!"

"So, I wonder how I compare to Zhuo Qingyun, the 'Four Directions Sword'?"

"Ah!" Xiao Bieli let out a soft sigh:

"He is probably no match for Zhuo Qingyun for the time being. He has already opened up the seven orifices. Moreover, Cangyuan Sword Sect is one of the nine sects in the world, and Zhuo Qingyun is the number one disciple of Cangyuan Sword Sect. His martial arts are definitely not simple!"

"I still have to keep diligently killing people!"

[Experience value: 1460]

Looking at the remaining experience points, Xiao Bieli silently recited in his heart:

"Consume all experience points to upgrade the Bronze Body Technique!"

boom!

【Bronze Body Skill (78/100)】

Xiao Bieli's entire body was burning hot, and countless experiences from cultivating the Bronze Body Technique flooded into his mind, as if he had been cultivating the Bronze Body Technique for decades.

"The Bronze Body Skill and Iron Shirt Skill are at the same level, and they overlap with the Thirteen Protectors' Horizontal Training Skill!"

"Fortunately, not much experience is required."

"Acceptable!"

"I'm even harder now!"

……

September 10th.

"Blood Blade Vajra" Xiao Bieli killed Song Kang, a fifth-rank retainer of the Liu family in Yunzhou, and nineteen other Liu family masters at Wohu Slope in Dongjiang County!

As soon as the news spread,

The entire Manzhou was shaken!

Some people initially thought it was a rumor, but it was quickly confirmed.

Because the news came from the Zhenwu Hall.

……

Three days later.

Xiao Bieli slightly altered his appearance, changed into a black outfit, and sat openly in the Shiweitian restaurant in Cang County.

With his current level of physical training, his control over his muscles has reached an unparalleled level. Simply changing his facial features is not a difficult task for him.

Moreover, he is now a fifth-rank expert, which is considered quite a master in the entire Manzhou region.

Even if the Twelve Linked Forts or the Fifth Rank of the Three Rivers Alliance came knocking on his door, he would not be afraid.

Now it's those forces that should be afraid.

The day before yesterday, people from Zhenwutang found him again and told him to meet them in Cang County.

He had been in the county next to Cang County, not far away, and arrived in half a day.

"If you ask me, Young Hero Xiao must have already entered the fifth rank, otherwise how could that fifth rank expert from Yunzhou have died at Young Hero Xiao's hands?"

Food is the most important thing in the world, and the place is bustling with noise.

But the most discussed character is still 'Blood Blade Vajra' Xiao Bieli.

"It shouldn't be. I was fortunate enough to witness Xiao Bieli's battle at the city gate. He didn't even manage to defeat the Spirit Serpent Gang with a single strike. How could he possibly be a fifth-rank cultivator?"

"That's because Young Master Xiao is kind-hearted. If the Spirit Serpent Gang hadn't been so ungrateful, Young Master Xiao wouldn't have killed them!"

“That’s right, I don’t think Young Master Xiao did anything wrong. I heard from those ghostwriters that Young Master Xiao paid money to Jiangshan Pavilion to buy information and then went to find those wicked people. Han Long was the one Young Master Xiao found before, and Han Long is no good!”

"That's right. The Twelve Linked Forts and White Cloud Manor are used to being arrogant in Dongjiang County. They can't stand a righteous person like Young Hero Xiao, so they're trying to kill him!"

"Heh...you know nothing. If Xiao Bieli were truly kind-hearted, how come most of the people who fought him died?"

"You are kind-hearted. If someone tries to kill you, don't kill them. Spare their life!"

Some people, fueled by alcohol, argued heatedly over food, their faces flushed.

Xiao Bieli simply shook his head.

It seems that the performance at the city gate of Cangxian County had some effect.
