Zilong directly rose to stand. His body which earlier was crushed now felt as light as cotton, yet as dense as steel. While clenching his hand, he felt the flow of the ancient purple Qi surging violently inside his new meridian paths which were far sturdier. Without wasting time, he took steps leaving the ancient altar."Now... I only need to search for a way out..."One hour later...In only a short time, Zilong succeeded in finding an ancient gap sloping up to the surface, cutting the forest route and directly pointing toward the outer border of the Qing clan territory.His hemp cloth clothes were still tattered and stained with dry blood, yet his line of sight, sharp as a sword tip, was capable of hiding his physical condition.He walked sturdily toward the residence center. However, his step slowed down when drawing close to the clan's Main Hall.'Something is not right...' Zilong's inner mind thought, his eyebrows interlocking.Usually, at an hour like this, the Main Hall was onl

Zilong's voice flowed casually, yet every word that came out from his mouth was in the manner of lightning striking on a clear afternoon. Absolute arrogance, which did not even look at the existence of the grandest sect in that eastern region, made the entire crowd inside the hall astounded in disbelief."You!" Shi Nian was newly about to abuse, considering Zilong's utterance as the delusion of an acute-level madman.However, before the words of abuse chanced to escape from her lips, the atmosphere inside the Qing Clan Main Hall suddenly changed in a drastic manner. The air pressure dropped drastically, causing an extraordinarily intense heavy sensation until making the Qing Clan elders at low cultivation tiers directly cough withholding their suffocated chests.Whuuuuzzzz!A strong wind spun in the middle of the hall, blowing dust and shards of the agreement paper scattered around. From inside the vortex of that dense spiritual wind, a shadow slowly condensed.A figure of a middle-ag

Qing Zilong darted through the Black Mist Forest. Throughout the journey, he did not slow down even for a moment. He was no longer just running; he was moving in perfect harmony with the rhythm of the forest. When a low-level beast lurked behind the bushes, he did not even need to turn his head. Zilong merely tilted his body slightly, letting the sharp claws pass inches from his skin, and continued forward without looking back.He could sense the location of every creature around him solely through the fluctuations of Qi in the air. He knew exactly when to leap to avoid stepping on tree roots that harbored poisonous energy, and he knew which way the wind was blowing to mask his tracks. The experience Su Qian had gained from thousands of battles in the past was still perfectly etched into his soul, even though the body he currently possessed was still severely limited.Upon reaching the foot of the mountain range, Zilong stopped directly in front of a silent cliff face. There were no s

Qing Zilong slowly withdrew his spiritual consciousness from the storage ring. He stood still for a moment, letting his breath steady before he began to examine the inheritance he had left for himself millions of years ago.The corners of his lips lifted slightly. "I hope time has not claimed everything."His spiritual consciousness swept through the storage space. The stone shelves remained neatly arranged. Some jade boxes were still tightly sealed, while others were covered in a thin layer of dust due to the immense passage of time.Zilong stepped closer. His hand reached for a white jade bottle.Click.The lid popped open, and a dense medicinal aroma immediately filled the room."Hmm, Meridian Recovery Pill," he muttered. He poured one pill into his palm. Its surface was still polished, and the medicinal energy within remained stable. "Still usable."Zilong placed the pill back into the bottle and moved on to the next one. But when he opened the lid—Puff...Gray ash flew out. Ther

Qing Zilong landed lightly on a high tree branch, his gaze sweeping over the arena below with calm detachment. The battlefield had been transformed into a scene of devastation; massive trees lay toppled, and the ground was scarred with cracks from the collision of wild Qi.Two men in armor lay lifeless, bearing gruesome lacerations. Not far from them, an elderly guard leaned weakly against a tree trunk. His breathing was heavy, and blood continued to seep from a torn shoulder. In front of the guard, a girl in a white silk dress stood firm. Though the sword in her hand trembled violently, her gaze remained as sharp as a razor.Before them, a giant beast resembling a bear, its skin covered in steel-like scales, roared until the forest foliage shook.ROAAARRR!!Zilong observed for a moment. Decent talent, but her combat experience is still too shallow, he thought coldly. If the battle continued, the girl wouldn’t be able to hold out for more than a few heartbeats."Fall back," Zilong sai
