31 Sky Forest Murderous Inten (1/2)
_What is going on?_ Zhao Feng felt that his left eye was jumping and his blood seemed to undergo a certain change which allowed him to quickly absorb the energy.
It was certain that Zhao Feng’s ability to absorb medicine surpassed that of normal people. This was because a normal person needed three attempts to absorb one pouch of Body Strengthening Powder. However, Zhao Feng had only absorbed it once and all the energy had disappeared.
Zhao Feng cringed when he thought that his two thousand silver had been spent in such a short period. It was good though, that all the energy had been absorbed by him.
He was sire that the Metal Wall Technique’s training speed had increased dramatically.
“What kind of mutation has happened to my body? My absorption speed has greatly increased.” Zhao Feng felt that his own body held secrets he did not know. He could only confirm that all of this had something to do with his left eye.
The next day, Zhao Feng first cultivated in the Air Crossing Breathing Technique a few times, then resumed using the Body Strengthening Powder.
In only three days, his Metal Wall Technique reached the second level. However, his six thousand silver worth of Body Strengthening Powder had all been used up.
The first two levels of the Metal Wall Technique did not improve Zhao Feng’s overall strength by much. His power had increased, but his defense had only increased by about twenty-some percent.
This was mainly due to the fact that Zhao Feng’s foundation being very strong. If he had reached the second level before he reached the fourth rank of the Martial Path, then the increase in strength would have been very obvious.
“Only the third level allows for one’s body to become as hard as metal, and block weapons. This allows one’s defense to greatly increase.”
Zhao Feng wanted to reach it, but his Body Strengthening Powder had been used up, and his training speed in the Metal Wall Technique went back to the speed of a turtle.
_Money, money, money,_ Zhao Feng sighed. All his savings were gone. He was now broke.
He took out the Air pill that he had bought a few days ago. The use of the Air pill was to refine one’s Inner Strength, which helped Martial Artists a lot.
Zhao Feng immediately ate the pill and started to cultivate in the Air Crossing Breathing Technique. The Air Crossing Breathing Technique was so outstanding that Zhao Yufei’s grandfather even took out the Metal Wall Technique to exchange for it. And with the mental energy he gained from his left eye, Zhao Feng could cultivate for twice as long as he could before, therefore allowing for his Inner Strength to increase at an immense speed.
Zhao Feng once again felt heat come from his left eye which allowed his absorption rate to increase.
***********************
_One day and one night later..._
Zhao Feng let out a breath as he raised his palm. A faint green glow spun slowly in circles, bringing a powerful pressure with it.
His Inner Strength had reached peak fourth rank unknowingly. Because the Metal Wall Technique and Air Crossing Breathing Technique both proceeded at the same time, Zhao Feng’s foundation began to get even more stable.
He calculated that there were six to seven days left until the tournament.
“The Metal Wall Technique is at the peak of the second level and my Inner Strength is comparable to the peak of the fourth rank. My cultivation is almost at the peak of the fourth rank as well,” Zhao Feng evaluated.
With this strength, he had a 40-50% chance of reaching the top three. However, to win, Zhao Han only had a 30%, as well as a 70% chance of a draw by relying on the speed of Lightly Floating Ferry.
_Not good enough!_ Zhao Feng shook his head, the chance to win was too low.
Whether it was to defeat Zhao Han or to reach the top three, he had to increase his strength. However, using normal ways to cultivate, his cultivation and Metal Wall Technique would be hard to improve.
“It looks like I have to go to the Sky Cloud Forest again.” Zhao Feng said after thinking deeply. He immediately retrieved a long rectangular box within the room.
A silver bow lay within the wooden box. This silver bow was the one Zhao Feng had bought at Sun Feather City. Only true Martial Artists could truly utilize its strength.
With the bow in hand, Zhao Feng left the Zhao sect. He then bought some items in Sun Feather City before heading towards Sky Cloud Forest.
As soon as he left Sun Feather City, three shadows flashed by the city gates before also leaving. Two of these black-clothed people had black skin and looked similar.
“Big brother! That kid is probably going to Sky Cloud Forest,” one of the black-clothed people said urgently.
“Very good. It is the perfect place for us to do our job. This plan ensures that this kid will definitely die!” the big brother replied, full of killing intent.
********************
Zhao Feng could train Lightly Floating Ferry whenever he liked when there was no one around.
He was as light as a feather floating through the wind, sometimes double jumping in midair.
Finally, today, Lightly Floating Ferry reached the low level.
_Teng! Teng!..._
In this open area he felt free like a bird.
