151: Chapter 151 The Arrival of Marquis Weiwu's Spy

"Use!"

In the next moment, Chen Hu transformed into a little kid again and entered another world, painstakingly cultivating the 2.0 version of the Sheng Tian Technique under the guidance of his Master.

It only took about nine months.

Chen Hu cultivated the 2.0 version of the Sheng Tian Technique to the highest level.

Then, he was kicked out of the cultivation world.

A stream of cultivation memories flooded into his mind. Once the Fusion was complete, he had fully mastered the 2.0 version of the Sheng Tian Technique.

The two Cultivation Techniques were over ninety percent similar.

Therefore, converting it was extremely easy.

With just a single circulation of his technique, he converted the internal Qi in his Dantian into a much more powerful internal Qi.

Next, he withdrew the internal Qi from all his bone apertures, converted it, and then injected the new internal Qi back into them.

He took out an enlightenment cultivation card.

He silently chanted to activate it.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 100 days of cultivation base!"

Chen Hu's eyes lit up, thinking to himself that his luck was pretty good today.

He then claimed the cultivation base.

Once the cultivation base entered his body, it flowed toward his Dantian.

Having just broken through to the Mid-stage Marrow Refining Realm, his internal Qi had shrunk significantly.

As the newly acquired cultivation base was injected, the internal Qi in Chen Hu's Dantian rose rapidly like a swelling tide.

In just a short while, it reached a state of saturation.

There were still about 70 days of cultivation base left.

This cultivation base split into multiple streams, respectively re-tempering his skin, muscles, tendons, and bones.

Once these four were fully tempered, he continued to open up new bone apertures.

However, not many new bone apertures were opened this time, only eight in total.

Therefore, the 70 days of cultivation base were not completely consumed, with about 30 days remaining.

After injecting internal Qi into the new bone apertures,

the remaining cultivation base turned into fuel to accelerate the tempering of his bone marrow.

Soon, the remaining cultivation base was completely depleted, and the progress of his second Marrow Refining reached about twelve percent.

Next, Chen Hu took out a connection card.

It still resulted in a Ding-grade connection.

As for the treasure hunting card, Chen Hu didn't even plan to use it, because the ownerless treasures in Linjiang Prefecture had been almost completely dug out by him.

Unless he went to another place to use it.

Otherwise, even if a treasure location was revealed, the treasures found would not be worth much.

But after thinking about it, he still decided to use it.

What if the revealed treasure location contained an immense treasure? It would be a huge loss if he didn't use it.

After a new treasure location was added,

Chen Hu took out the cultivation multiplier card and activated it.

He obtained a 10x cultivation effect.

Two hours later, after fusing the rewarded Soul Power, the pellet within his Divine Soul grew significantly larger.

"General Zhao Zilong, come in!"

Chen Hu called out to Zhao Zilong outside the door.

"Please give your orders, Lord!"

Zhao Zilong said, clasping his hands.

"Sit!"

Once Zhao Zilong sat down, Chen Hu took out a piece of Tier 1 exotic beast meat weighing about three catties, a flask of wine, and two cups.

He cut the exotic beast meat in half and handed one half to Zhao Zilong. "Here, take it!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

Zhao Zilong was one hundred percent loyal to Chen Hu. Although the exotic beast meat Chen Hu gave him was very precious, he would not refuse it.

As for the wine Chen Hu took out, it was also not simple; it was Blazing Wine.

It could nourish the five viscera and six bowels.

This was Chen Hu's compensation to Zhao Zilong.

After all, Chen Hu did not plan to let him soak in the Body Tempering Pool.

After they finished eating and drinking, Chen Hu was about to take Zhao Zilong to experience the local entertainment and customs.

Unexpectedly, Wang Quan sent someone to deliver a letter to him, inviting him to a secret meeting.

Half an hour later.

Inside a private room of a restaurant.

"Greetings, Brother Hu!" Wang Quan said respectfully.

"What is it? Has your Wealthy Gang run into some trouble?" Chen Hu asked with some curiosity.

Wang Quan said, "No, it's that orders have come down from above, instructing me to secretly dispatch a portion of our elites to join the Yellow Heaven Sect!"

Hearing this, Chen Hu couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful expression.

It was likely that the imperial clan of the former dynasty knew the Yellow Heaven Sect was expanding rapidly and preparing for a rebellion.

They had Wang Quan send elites to join, which was nothing more than wanting to infiltrate the Yellow Heaven Sect.

If the Yellow Heaven Sect failed, since they were not directly involved, it wouldn't cause the Great Yong Kingdom to suspect them.

If the Yellow Heaven Sect succeeded, they could take control of a portion of its forces through the infiltrated members.

Thinking up to this point,

Chen Hu looked at Wang Quan and asked, "Are the forces under the former dynasty's imperial clan really just the Money Gang and the Wealthy Gang?"

Wang Quan said, "Of course not. The Money Gang is merely one of the forces on the surface. As for the Wealthy Gang, it is also subordinate to the Money Gang. Furthermore, in the other three prefectures of Lingzhou, there are similar gangs like the Wealthy Gang.

"Besides that, I also know that the former dynasty's imperial clan established a sect, but I'm not clear on what sect it is. After all, my status is not high.

"Also, the high-level members of Lingzhou's largest bandit organization, the Qilin Bandits, are also their people. Of course, they also secretly control some mountain bandit forces to amass wealth. I've also heard that they control quite a few forces in Yunzhou, but I'm not clear on which specific forces those are!"

"Alright, I understand!" Chen Hu nodded.

"By the way, Brother Hu, should I send people to Feilong Prefecture according to their orders?"

"Send them. You haven't been exposed yet. If you disobey the order, wouldn't that be openly telling them that you've betrayed them?" Chen Hu said. His current strength was not yet enough to contend with the remnants of the former dynasty.

Wang Quan's Wealthy Gang also had quite a few members.

Once his strength reached the Organ Refining Realm, he could ignore the remnants of the former dynasty. At that time, he could directly take all the members of the Wealthy Gang under his command, and his number of lackeys would skyrocket again.

After parting ways with Wang Quan,

Chen Hu took Zhao Zilong to the pleasure houses to listen to music.

They didn't return home until evening.

At this time,

a group disguised as a merchant caravan entered Linjiang Prefecture just before the city gates closed.

And within this group were an old man and a youth, who were precisely the Master and disciple pair of sorcerers.

Now, the Master and disciple were both working for Marquis Weiwu.

They had come to Linjiang Prefecture specifically to find the sorcerer who had plotted against Young Marquis Wei Wuji.

After settling into a large inn in the city,

the young sorcerer came to the old sorcerer's room.

"Master, do you think we can find that sorcerer?"

The old sorcerer shook his head. "Hard to say. Although we sorcerers can sense each other, the distance cannot be too far. Secondly, the other party must deliberately release their sorcerer aura, or be casting a spell. Otherwise, it's very difficult to tell if someone is a sorcerer just by the naked eye."

"Ah, doesn't that mean it will be very difficult for us to find the culprit who plotted against the Young Marquis!" the youth exclaimed.

"Otherwise, what do you think?" the old sorcerer said testily. "Actually, the Marquis didn't put all his hopes on us. There is an expert in the caravan!"

"Who is it?" the youth asked curiously.

"That chubby caravan leader!" the old sorcerer said.

"No way!" The young sorcerer was extremely surprised. "That leader looks very friendly and is always smiling at everyone. He doesn't look like an expert at all!"

"You are still too green!" The old sorcerer shook his head. "Although that person hasn't revealed a shred of his cultivation base, his strength has probably already surpassed Organ Refining and reached the level of Blood Refining!"

"That strong?" The young sorcerer was exceptionally shocked.

Just then, a knock sounded on the door, and the old sorcerer immediately shut his mouth.

The person outside was calling them to eat.

The old sorcerer called back in response and then led the youth out of the room.
