82: Chapter 82 One Billion Yuan in Krypton Money

10 million Qi and Blood points!

Boom!

Without any warm-up, a massive amount of Qi and Blood exploded directly in the depths of Li Zhengyang's dantian.

The barrier of a 5th Grade Martial Emperor didn't even last half a second before breaking on the spot.

6th Grade! 7th Grade! 8th Grade! 9th Grade!

The Qi and Blood surged forward, unstoppable all the way, crashing directly into the invisible dam that stood before countless martial artists.

The Martial Venerable chasm.

For an ordinary person, facing this chasm would require decades of grinding effort to accumulate and comprehend.

But Li Zhengyang didn't need that.

He relied on pure numerical suppression!

A torrent composed of 10 million Qi and Blood points slammed fiercely against the Martial Venerable barrier.

Bang!

The barrier collapsed, and the violent energy instantly washed over every inch of his meridians throughout his body.

[Qi and Blood value threshold exceeded!]

[Realm breakthrough: 5th Grade Martial Emperor → 1st Grade Martial Venerable!]

Li Zhengyang's bones crackled and popped, and the patterns beneath his skin glowed.

His already monstrous physique underwent a complete, fundamental transformation after stepping into the Martial Venerable realm.

Just as the Martial Venerable's pressure began to expand outward from the hospital room, the system immediately flashed a white light.

This terrifying fluctuation, capable of overturning the entire medical building, was forcibly pressed back into the room.

Even so, the alloy steel plates emitted sounds of distortion, and the bulletproof special glass creaked.

Li Zhengyang exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling an inexhaustible amount of strength throughout his entire body.

Just as he prepared to stand up and stretch his muscles, another sound echoed in his mind.

[Host authority level increased.]

[Pojun Division internal high-level shop officially unlocked.]

New goods?

Li Zhengyang flipped his hand and pulled up the shop interface.

A new category list popped up.

SSS-grade weapons, special bloodlines, top-tier pills... any one of these items, if taken outside, would be enough to make the outside world fight until they beat each other's brains out.

But the prices were labeled ridiculously high, often in the tens of billions or even hundreds of billions, making him curl his lip.

"I still need to find a way to make more money."

Li Zhengyang muttered, then clicked directly into the "Movement Techniques" category.

In the battle against Xue You and the Nether Dragon Venerable, his disadvantage lay in his movement technique.

The "Startling Cloud Step" was decent during the Martial King and Martial Emperor stages, but against old monsters at the Martial Venerable level, he became a living target for beatings.

If not for relying on the Tyrannosaurus Bone to tank the hits, he would have long been kited to death.

This shortcoming in his movement technique had to be fixed.

He skillfully swiped past those Heaven-tier techniques that cost billions, pulling the page directly to the very bottom.

Specifically looking for incomplete volumes.

His gaze stopped on an ancient scroll with a dim glow in the corner.

["Soaring Dragon Sky-Stepping Footwork" (SSS-grade movement technique incomplete volume)]

[Introduction: Severely incomplete, only the introductory general outline remains. It lacks the subsequent method of spatial folding; forcing practice can easily lead to being torn apart by spatial turbulence.]

[Price: 10 million great xia currency]

My god, just an introductory general outline is worth 10 million great xia currency.

It's truly worthy of being an SSS-grade movement technique.

This is the one.

Li Zhengyang decisively bought it.

As expected, the system immediately popped up a deduction prompt.

[Detected SSS-grade incomplete volume "Soaring Dragon Sky-Stepping Footwork", system can perform deduction and completion.]

[Deduction cost: 100 million great xia currency.]

100 million great xia currency?

Li Zhengyang's eyelids twitched.

100 million great xia currency isn't much compared to an SSS-grade movement technique, but he was currently penniless.

[Ding! Detected that the host doesn't have enough money, you can apply for a 100 million advance.]

Li Zhengyang's eyes lit up, he could get an advance.

Then there was nothing to worry about.

"Deduce!"

The next second.

Streams of information about the martial technique flooded into his mind.

Three seconds later, the golden light dissipated.

SSS-grade movement technique, Great Perfection.

All the details regarding the Soaring Dragon Sky-Stepping Footwork had already been deeply imprinted into his mind.

Li Zhengyang stood up from the hospital bed.

To prevent him from suffering any accidents, this special care ward had the highest-level energy blockade arrays carved into its walls.

Never mind a person, not even a fly could fly out.

This was just a good testing ground.

He just raised his right foot and took a light step towards the air in front of him.

Swoosh!

The space in front rippled like water, creating a layer of transparent ripples, automatically folding inward.

Li Zhengyang's figure disappeared into thin air in front of the hospital bed.

Without even triggering the highest-level array alarm, he passed through that blockade barrier that even a Martial Venerable couldn't break, and appeared directly on the windowsill at the other end of the ward.

He looked down at his feet and was amused.

Shrinking the Earth to an Inch.

This thing is simply a rogue divine skill for running away or backstabbing and knocking people out.

Li Zhengyang was in a great mood and casually picked up a cup of hot tea placed on the table nearby.

Just at this moment.

The handle of the ward door clicked and turned.

A young nurse pushed the door open and walked in.

She kept her head down, checking the data on her clipboard while speaking: "Li Zhengyang, routine check..."

The words stuck in her throat.

The nurse looked up, her eyes wide with shock.

The hospital bed was empty.

The life-support pod lid was open, nutrient solution had leaked all over the floor, and various monitoring lines were strewn about in a mess.

But the person was gone!

The nurse's hand trembled, and her clipboard dropped to the floor.

Her head buzzed, and she reached out to hit the alarm.

"The window isn't open, stop looking."

A lazy voice drifted from behind her.

The nurse was startled, her hand stopped above the alarm, and she turned her head stiffly.

She saw Li Zhengyang sitting casually on the windowsill.

Holding a teacup in his hand and blowing on the steam.

The nurse was speechless.

The ward's arrays were all fully active, how on earth did he teleport to the windowsill to drink tea?

Before the nurse could straighten her tongue.

In the corridor outside the ward, a burst of extremely intense arguing suddenly exploded.

"Lei Qianjue! Don't you dare try to pressure me with rules! There's no room for discussion on this matter!"

"Open your eyes and look clearly, this is the personal written approval from the Great Xia Military Headquarters General Committee!"
