Zhao Laoxiu was very satisfied with Liu Jiang’s attitude.

With the strength Liu Jiang revealed now, he would definitely be accepted and nurtured by the Liu Clan, and his future would be bright.

Even he did not dare to casually teach Liu Jiang a lesson.

Liu Jiang’s performance in the martial arts arena was very aggressive. He was wondering how to manage this hothead.

Unexpectedly, the current Liu Jiang did not show the slightest arrogance. He was sensible and had a sense of propriety.

It would be easy to get along with him in the future.

A smile appeared on Zhao Laoxiu’s greasy face. He smiled and said, “I’ll leave Team 3 to you in the future. If you have any problems, come look for me. Don’t be a stranger.”

Liu Jiang nodded respectfully. “Chief, you’re my leader and my senior. If I fail to do something, please advise me.”

Zhao Laoxiu was even more pleased. He contributed more than 4,000 joyous emotions to Liu Jiang.

Liu Jiang was also very happy.

The atmosphere in the house instantly became much more harmonious. The two of them chatted from time to time and even joked occasionally. Laughter came from the house, and their relationship quickly became much closer.

During this time, he gave Liu Jiang three energy fruits.

What a good person, Liu Jiang thought.

Zhao Laoxiu rubbed his slightly dizzy head and took out a small bottle from his pocket happily. He placed it on the table and pushed it to Liu Jiang. “Reward for first place in the assessment: five Essence Restoring Pills.”

“Thank you, Chief.” Liu Jiang did not stand on ceremony at all. He took them and stuffed them into his chest pocket.

The Essence Restoring Pill could help one quickly recover one’s powers. At critical moments, it could even save lives. It was very valuable.

One pill was worth 10 taels of silver. It was the two-month salary of an ordinary inspector.

Zhao Laoxiu smiled and took a book made from animal hide out of his pocket. He said, “I previously obtained an Earth-level spell, the Lightning Inducing Technique. After mastering it, one can attract lightning and attack the enemy. Its power is quite extraordinary.”

Earth-level spell? Liu Jiang was shocked.

Techniques and spells were categorized by the size of their power. From low to high, they were categorized as human-level, earth-level, and heaven-level.

The vast majority of the martial techniques in the cultivation world were at the human-level.

Earth-level spells and martial techniques were exceptionally rare.

As for heaven-level spells, they only existed in legends.

Zhao Laoxiu nodded and said, “Yes, an earth-level spell. However, this spell is very difficult to comprehend. I spent 20 years just to gain a basic understanding of it. The others in my family have also been cultivating for a long time, but they have only skimmed the surface.”

Liu Jiang understood.

Earth-level spells were far more powerful than human-level spells, but the difficulty of cultivation was also very high—at least a hundred times that of human-level spells.

Without super high talent, even if one trained hard all their lives, they would not be able to grasp the basics. Even if they managed to grasp the basics, the violent energy released when using an earth-level technique would be unbearable for ordinary people’s fine meridians.

“This is a copy.” As Zhao Laoxiu spoke, he pushed it to Liu Jiang and said, “You’re so young, but you were able to raise the Roaming Dragon Movement Technique to the great perfection level. It’s obvious that your comprehension ability is very high. Take it back and try it out.”

“This… Then I’ll accept it.” Liu Jiang wanted to pretend to be polite, but he thought that it would seem too hypocritical, so he simply picked it up.

He would remember this favor and repay it in the future.

“Haha, your temper suits me.” Zhao Laoxiu beamed and gave Liu Jiang more than 3,000 joy.

Zhao Laoxiu reminded him again. “The Lightning Inducing Technique is a spell with abnormally powerful attack power. It’s very powerful and can be said to be terrifying, but it has a big flaw.

That is, no matter how much magic power you have in your body, it can be instantly drained. Unless it is absolutely necessary, it should not be used rashly.

After all, even if we use the Essence Restoring Pill, it will take some time to recover our Dharma powers. We Immortal Cultivators are not much better than ordinary people without Dharma powers.”

“I’ll remember that.” Liu Jiang nodded solemnly.

He committed it to memory.

“Other than that, when using martial techniques, the energy is abnormally violent. You must use it carefully, or it will tear your meridians.

Alright, I’ll go take a nap first. I don’t know why, but my limbs feel a little weak and my head feels dizzy.” Zhao Laoxiu rubbed his head.

He sighed inwardly. He was indeed not young anymore.

He could not fool around anymore at night.

He just needed his two wives to accompany him for the night.

“Then I won’t disturb you.” Liu Jiang nodded respectfully, but he felt a little guilty.

After the competition ended, Zhao Laoxiu alone gave him more than 40,000 joyous emotions.

It was no wonder he was feeling tired.

At noon, Liu Jiang returned home and closed the door. The first thing he did was look at the Treasure Tree.

He could not help but feel rich.

From this assessment, he had absorbed more than a million emotions.

Fear topped the list. He had absorbed more than 400,000 points.

The spirit controlling fruit, which was condensed from fear, required 948,2190 points of emotional force.

From resentment and anger, a total of 26 epiphany fruits hung on the small tree.

There were a total of 23 energy fruits condensed from joy and gratitude.

Of course, Yang Yue had contributed greatly to the maturity of so many energy fruits.

He did not know what was going on, but he had earned more than 140,000 points. Moreover, the emotions would refresh from time to time.

He continued to sort out his gains.

There were seven wisdom expelling fruits condensed from jealousy.

There were nine meridian opening fruits condensed from envy.

There were five dreamscape fruits condensed from regret.

There were six madness fruits condensed from killing intent.

An unlucky fruit that was condensed from compassion needed 3,620 points of compassion to mature.

After some thought, Liu Jiang decided to use the meridian opening fruit to expand his meridians and dantian’s spiritual source.

Liu Jiang sat cross-legged on a futon and realized that he could not take out the meridian opening fruit.

But with a thought, it appeared in his lower abdomen.

Instantly, it transformed into a fiery, intense special energy that wreaked havoc in Liu Jiang’s body.

“Oh…”

Liu Jiang’s eyes exploded…

Pain…

It hurt too much…

It was so painful that he could not breathe or even cry out.

Liu Jiang’s face flushed red as he rolled on the ground. He felt like his body was being torn apart, bit by bit.

The pain was devastating.

In fact, his meridians were indeed torn. A violent energy surged wildly in his narrow meridians, tearing them apart and quickly repairing them.

Tear, repair…

With every repair, the toughness of the meridians would increase a little.

Two minutes later, the pain disappeared and was replaced with an unusually comfortable feeling. He felt invigorated and his condition had never been better.

Liu Jiang circulated his cultivation technique and sensed his body carefully. Liu Jiang was a little disappointed to discover that the extent of the expansion of his meridians was abnormally weak.

It was just that the toughness of the meridians had increased slightly.

His dantian and spiritual source were slightly bigger and tougher.

“Continue!”

Gritting his teeth, Liu Jiang directly began to refine the second meridian opening fruit.

After his meridians were expanded, there would be many benefits.

Not only would his usual cultivation speed increase, but when he circulated his Dharma spells, his powers would circulate even faster.

In fact, some powerful martial techniques required wide meridians.

For example, Liu Jiang had just obtained the Lightning Inducing Technique. When he circulated the technique, the energy was abnormally violent. If his meridians were too thin, they might tear apart.

Liu Jiang gritted his teeth and quickly refined the second meridian opening fruit.

Then the third pill.

Liu Jiang had ruthlessness in his bones. He could be ruthless to others and even to himself.
