Fifth chapter of the week! Sorry for the late post as I was quite busy yesterday. There should be another double release today so stay tuned!

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

In the end, these elderly dispersed one after another. Lin Hao, under Lin Yi’s lead, walked into a secret chamber inside the stone house.

There weren’t many things inside the chamber. The most eye-catching items would be the four head-sized stone inscriptions!

Each clan had their own heritage. Even Lin Family, a “pseudo-clan” in the village, was no exception.

The stone inscriptions in front of him was exactly Lin Family’s heritage.

Four fighter blood congealment techniques!

Lin Hao was quite moved. The stone house represented too many things. It wasn’t a mere house. It was also a kind of resource. Take fighter blood congealment techniques for example. To an ordinary villager, it was extremely precious. Only by displaying enough innate talents and picked by the village, they would be granted the access to it. Otherwise, no matter how hard they tried, they wouldn’t be able to obtain it.

Yet Lin Family alone had four pieces.

This should be the things they wanted.

He could imagine, the big figures behind all of these mustn’t be those villagers.

Those people won’t dismantle the house for no reason as there is no meaning to it.

It is impossible as simple as only to vent their anger. If it is only a couple of people, it may be possible. But for so many people to go mad at the same, it is impossible. Unless Lin Family has done atrocious acts, forcing the ma.s.ses to push against the collapsed wall.

However, from his observation, though Lin Family couldn’t be exactly counted as having good moral standing and reputation, there wasn’t any this kind of situation either.

Thus, the only possibility left is that Lin Family has something desired by the others!

Thinking this, Lin Hao took a deep breath and calmed down……

If Lin Family really had the things the wanted, he would sooner or later know who the other party was.

After all, those people had planned and prepared for two or three years, or maybe even more. It was impossible for them to give up just because of his appearance. Either they would try to take away by force or trickery, else they should do things covertly. But as long as they weren’t successful, there would be a day when the map was unfolded, a stiletto was exposed1.

“If other don’t offend me, I won’t offend them either.”

Being quiet for quite a while, that was what Lin Hao thought in his heart. Then he landed his sight on the stone inscriptions in front of him.

“Human’s blood vessels are of low grade, incomparable to large clans’, only by breaking through the blood vessels’ restriction, clearing primary meridians, one could congeal fighter blood and tread upon the path of cultivation.”

He recited the technique on the stone inscription silently and started to cultivate.

Gradually, from his vision, he could see specks of fluorescence light in the air started to gather on his body. Whenever a speck of light entered his body, he would feel a refreshing feeling…

He took a deep breath and shut his eyes. He could distinctly feel his strength was gradually increasing.

Generally speaking, even in this world, the strength of ordinary people was unable to surpa.s.s thousand pounds either. But after congealing fighter blood, each time they cleared a primary meridian meant increment of thousand pounds in strength. A person had twelve primary meridians altogether. If all of them were cleared, that would be twelve thousand pounds!

That was why hunting squad’s warriors who had broken through their blood vessels’ restriction were revered by everyone. Each of them had strength far superior than ordinary people.

Moreover, this was only on theory. In fact, clearing six primary meridians meant reaching small success, fighter blood would form small circulation, growing and multiplying without end. Clearing twelve primary meridians meant reaching perfection, fighter blood would form big circulation and Essence could be released. By then, the increment in strength wouldn’t be as simple as merely thousand pounds. To those who had reached peak of Fighter Blood stage, having thirty thousand pounds of strength was normal.

Thirty thousand pounds. On Earth, that was equivalent to fifteen tonnes!

That kind of existences, even within a radius of thousands of miles were experts that could be counted by hands. Even if placed in a tribe, that kind of existences wouldn’t be disregarded either…

Yet in Stone Swallow Village, there were two warriors whom had reached large success of Fighter Blood. One of them was Patriarch Zhu Changdao, the other one was the vice captain of hunting squad, Young Patriarch Zhu Mingyu!

Soon after, he opened his eyes. Those weak energy around his body had disappeared.

Gazing at the stone inscription in front of his knees, he hesitated a bit.

To an ordinary villager, having fighter blood congealment technique was akin to be bestowed by Heavens. This meant they had the possibility to set their foot on cultivation path, becoming part of hunting squad, and to be detached from mundane world henceforth…

But to obtain four cultivation method suddenly…

This really made one to be troubled from happiness…

He shook his head while laughing. Just now, he had tried out all the fighter blood congealment method on these stone inscriptions. Though they were quite effective, but each of them wasn’t much different from each other, so they should be of same grade.

“The stone inscription on the left doesn’t suit me, the Blood Essence cultivated from it is too gentle and reserved. The one on the right is too violent. Things which lean towards extremity usually have fatal flaws so they can’t be recklessly chosen. This leaves the two remaining pieces in the center…”

There weren’t high or low distinction among these four methods on stone inscriptions, therefore he could only choose one suitable for himself.

In the end, he chose the middle left one. Portrayed on it was a giant of indomitable spirit who held heaven-splitter hatchet on his hand. Below it was the fighter blood congealment technique. The fighter blood congealed using this technique was extremely overbearing with extraordinary strength.

Overbearing, powerful!

Similar to that giant of indomitable spirit, it had the traits capable of sweeping over all of the world!

Wait a moment…

He blanked out for a moment.

To congeal fighter blood, one needed more than just a congealment technique. One also needed a drawing for visualization technique. Those visualization drawing, originating from twelve scriptures which had been pa.s.sed down since ancient times, were the base of cultivation and one couldn’t do without it.

Though the fatty’s Second Uncle was a recluse, but he ultimately left in order to seek breakthrough. No matter how trash he is, he should have brought his visualization technique with him. Otherwise, wouldn’t that mean he was making a fool out of himself?

Thinking this, Lin Hao immediately rummaged through the beast robe’s pocket and took out a piece of armor.

This piece of armor was found among the skeleton’s ashes. Even at death’s door, the fatty’s Second Uncle hid it within him, presumably it was something extremely precious. In addition to patterns on the piece of armor itself, there were also densely packed characters which looked like a drawing as well.

“Could it be this is the visualization drawing?”

Gazing at the armor, Lin Hao was quite unsure himself.

However, other than this armor, he couldn’t think of any other things else. After all, even if he wanted to hide the ashes from that time, he couldn’t do it either since time would corrode it. But these stone inscriptions were different as they wouldn’t disappear.

It was just that those characters on the armor were too profound. The characters on stone inscriptions were slightly better as there were similarities between them and oracle bone script. Relying on his archaeology knowledge, he could barely recognize their meanings. But as for the armor, he could do nothing at all.

“I can only ask other people then.”

He put back the armor into his pocket and took out the square cauldron again.

Since the time he drank the red liquid, his strength had kept increasing. Initially, he couldn’t even lift the cauldron up, but though he put the cauldron into the beast robe’s pocket now, he didn’t even feel a thing. Even he himself didn’t know how much strength he had now.

“Not good!”

Right at this moment, through the small cauldron, he saw the outside scene and his complexion abruptly changed. He promptly pushed the stone door open and went out.

1 图穷匕见, the real intention is revealed in the end.
