86: Savage Body Refining Technique Grandmaster Level

"Hmm, I will be careful."

"During this period, I will be in secluded cultivation and will not leave Xiaoyao City."

Zhang Qingxiao felt a tightening in his heart; what was bound to happen had finally happened.

He had long anticipated that the Kang Family would not let this matter pass easily, and now his suspicions were confirmed.

It was just that it had happened much later than he had imagined.

The method was also more covert; if not for Lin Ying's discovery, he might have truly been ambushed by a Kang Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

"Brother Zhang, if there is nothing else, I will head back first."

After Lin Ying finished speaking, he prepared to leave, but was called back by Zhang Qingxiao.

Zhang Qingxiao gave him several hundred Sound Transmission Talismans and Message Talismans before letting him leave.

These Sound Transmission Talismans and Message Talismans were all produced by him and Zhou Yun some time ago, and they wouldn't sell for many Spirit Stones even if taken out to sell.

It was better to give them to Lin Ying, saving him from having to go to the market to purchase them.

After seeing Lin Ying off, Zhang Qingxiao began to continue cultivating the Barbaric Body Refining Art.

His Barbaric Body Refining Art was already about to break through to the Grandmaster Level.

Furthermore, a layer of barbaric force had already formed outside his body. Although its defensive power was not yet as good as the spiritual energy shield formed by a Body Protection Talisman, it was not far off.

As he continuously cultivated, the defensive power of this layer of barbaric force would become stronger and stronger.

Following his current cultivation path, after reaching the Grandmaster Level, it should be able to match the defensive power of the spiritual energy shield formed by a Body Protection Talisman.

The spiritual energy in his Meridians and Dantian also became more vigorous as the proficiency of the Barbaric Body Refining Art increased.

Now, he could cast eighty Fireball Techniques or fifty Ice Techniques in a row.

Since the Ice Technique broke through to the Grandmaster Level, its power had already surpassed the Fireball Technique.

It only took one Ice Technique to break the spiritual energy shield formed by a Golden Light Talisman.

Even when facing the spiritual energy shield of a defensive talisman, it only required casting the Ice Technique five times.

In the past six months, Zhang Qingxiao had also significantly increased the number of times he cultivated the Ice Technique, wanting to Cultivate it to the Great Grandmaster Level as soon as possible.

Over the next six months, both the Kang Family and the Wu Family did not stir up any trouble.

However, the Outer Sect Disciples and Utility Disciples who had gone to the wilderness during the two days the Kang Family was killed were being killed in increasing numbers.

According to the news Lin Ying had gathered, nearly one hundred Cultivators had already died.

In order not to attract the attention of the Kang Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Zhang Qingxiao had also gone to the wilderness a few times during this period, hunting some Late Stage Yao Beasts.

However, he was very careful every time he went out and did not give the Kang Family a chance to ambush him.

Over the past six months, the number of Cultivators they cooperated with the Xiaoyao Sect Utility Disciples had increased, and the Mid-Grade Spirit Stones earned each month had reached eight thousand.

After deducting various expenses, the Spirit Stones Zhang Qingxiao could distribute each month also reached five thousand.

In order to make this business more stable, Zhang Qingxiao had Luo Fei instruct his subordinates to temporarily stop expanding.

After this period of hard cultivation, the proficiency of the Barbaric Body Refining Art had reached the Grandmaster Level.

When he broke through to the Grandmaster Level, the defensive power of the barbaric force he cultivated was just as he had expected, comparable to the defensive power of a Body Protection Talisman.

At the same time, it also made his mind clearer, and his vision and hearing became better.

The tactile sensation of his Physical Body was also greatly enhanced, allowing him to anticipate danger more quickly.

When hunting Late Stage Yao Beasts, even without using Spells and Flying Swords, he could fight to a draw.

In addition to the Barbaric Body Refining Art, the proficiency of the Ice Technique had also reached the Great Grandmaster Level, and its power had been further enhanced.

Destroying the spiritual energy shield of a defensive talisman only required casting the Ice Technique three times.

It was a pity that he had never had the opportunity to fight with a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, so he did not know how big the gap between his current strength and a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was.

After half a year of investigation, the Wu Family also found out that the person behind Luo Fei was Zhang Qingxiao.

At the same time, they also conducted an in-depth investigation into Zhang Qingxiao.

They knew he had a close relationship with the Li Family.

After investigating this step, Wu Gaoqi had his youngest son stop the investigation.

The Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator was different from him; both in terms of strength and status in the Xiaoyao Sect, they were higher than him.

Furthermore, they were all Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the original Chang Sheng Sect, and they knew each other very well.

Wu Gaoqi did not want to offend the Li Family at this time, even if he found out that Luo Fei and Zhang Qingxiao could earn one or two thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones every month, he did not continue the investigation.

Xiaoyao Sect, Kang Family.

"Are you sure this Cultivator named Zhang Qingxiao is highly suspicious?"

"The business he does can earn thousands of Mid-Grade Spirit Stones?"

After hearing the report from his subordinate, the Kang Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator asked somewhat uncertainly.

Their Kang Family had three shops, plus the income from street stalls, which only earned four or five thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones each month.

This was only because their Kang Family had opened a place for entertainment, which was why they had such a high income.

It was truly hard to believe that a business without any shops could earn so many Spirit Stones.

"Great-uncle, I can be very sure that the Spirit Stones Zhang Qingxiao earns every month will definitely not be lower than three thousand."

"This is the result of our secret investigation over more than a year."

"This person Zhang Qingxiao is very cautious. If it weren't for the surpassing ordinary Magical Artifact given to me by Great-uncle, which can hide my figure, and I had been squatting in the courtyard next to his house to eavesdrop, I wouldn't have been able to discover that the business he does could earn so many Spirit Stones."

"However, Zhang Qingxiao has a very good relationship with the Li Family and is very likely to become a Dao Companion with the granddaughter of a Li Family Foundation Establishment Elder in the near future..."

The Lianqi 9th Layer Cultivator of the Kang Family explained the process of the matter in more detail.

"Does Zhang Qingxiao's ability to earn so many Spirit Stones every month have anything to do with the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator?"

The Kang Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator asked with a frown.

Earning more than three thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones every month was a huge temptation for him.

"This, I also cannot investigate."

"Zhang Qingxiao goes to see the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator every month."

"And it is only after receiving the Spirit Stones earned that month that he goes over."

"It is very likely related to the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator."

Although the Lianqi 9th Layer Cultivator of the Kang Family dared to send people to squat at Zhang Qingxiao's house, he did not dare to send people to squat at the place where the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator was.

A Foundation Establishment Cultivator had already cultivated Divine Sense, and as long as one approached a certain range, they would be discovered.

If they really did that and were discovered by the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it would definitely cause quite a bit of trouble.

Therefore, he did not know how much the business of Zhang Qingxiao had to do with the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

In fact, this was also the cleverness of Zhang Qingxiao. He had already thought of various possibilities in advance, which was why he went to see the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator after receiving the Spirit Stones.

However, he did not tell the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator that he could earn thousands of Mid-Grade Spirit Stones from his business.

Every time he went over, he only asked the Li Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator for advice on how to achieve Foundation Establishment.
