50: Ling Xian breaks through to the half-step Grandmaster level

East Sea Third Port.

Inside a broken boat, in a dilapidated warehouse, more than a dozen people were squeezed among seafood reeking of the sea.

Each of them had a cruel expression, and they were led by a woman.

"Commander's Wife! This trip to the Dragon Country is a death trap. If you go back now, we can still face the late Commander Lin Feng.", a robust man pleaded repeatedly.

"Say no more! Since I've come, I never planned on leaving the Dragon Country alive!"

"That Young Grandmaster dared to touch my lover; this grudge must be avenged, or I am no woman!" The woman's voice was stern.

It was clear that her relationship with Lin Feng was very deep.

Otherwise, Lin Feng would not have let her take charge of the mercenary group in his stead.

And these dozen or so brothers were also Lin Feng's most loyal followers.

When they heard what Wolf Fang said—that Lin Feng had been killed by a Young Grandmaster—

They didn't hesitate for a second before heading to the Dragon Country to avenge Lin Feng.

"Heh, so what if he's a Grandmaster?"

"As long as we use rocket launchers, I don't care if he's a Grandmaster or a god."

"If it's not enough, then it's just a lack of firepower!" one of the underlings in the crowd shouted.

These words added a bit of courage to the panicked hearts of the dozen people.

However, at that very moment,

A huge, ghostly blue halo appeared inside the enclosed warehouse.

"You dare to touch my disciple!"

Before the voice had even faded, a slender, jade-like hand reached out from the halo. With a gentle squeeze, countless ghostly blue flames appeared!

If Ling Xian were present, he would surely recognize this as the Undead Divine Fire.

And in Ling Xian's knowledge, besides himself, only his Master could use the Undead Divine Fire.

The flames drifted in strands, flying onto the dozen people.

In an instant, the dozen people were in excruciating pain, and some even fainted on the spot.

"Who on earth are you?" the vice-commander of the mercenary group—the Commander's Wife—asked tremblingly.

"You want to move against my disciple, yet you ask who I am?"

"Isn't it laughable?"

"Our Wolf Pack Mercenary Group will not let you go." The woman still tried to issue a threat at the last moment.

Unfortunately, she was facing a terrifyingly powerful expert, a Pioneer.

"Oh... that tiny mercenary group you mentioned?"

"By the time you arrived here, I had already wiped them out."

After speaking, the jade hand retracted into the circle, and then the ghostly blue halo vanished.

Only her voice remained, echoing continuously in the Commander's Wife's ears.

"Feng, just what kind of person did you provoke?"

With that, her soul was completely incinerated.

A team of over a dozen people, equipped with destructive weapons like rocket launchers, was dealt with that easily.

It was as simple as crushing an ant with one's hand.

When the broken boat reached the East Sea Third Port,

Yue Cailan followed the police force and intercepted the vessel.

Several infrared beams were aimed at the forehead of the boat's owner.

He was so terrified that he raised his hands above his head.

Submachine guns, sniper rifles!

Normally, there wouldn't be so many weapons, but the intelligence indicated a dozen mercenaries with extensive overseas combat experience.

Additionally, with the demands from the Yue Family, Ling Family, and the East Sea Police Bureau Chief, such equipment was prepared.

Bang!

An armed policeman broke down the door to the ship's warehouse.

He walked in cautiously.

He thought he would face a fierce battle.

However, all he saw were the dozen people lying on the ground and a pile of weapons and equipment.

The armed policeman walked out and reported to the Chief, "Report!"

"These mercenaries... seem to be dead!"

The Chief, patting his large belly, had a flash of surprise in his eyes.

"Are you sure it's that group of mercenaries?"

Facing the Chief's scrutinizing gaze, the policeman said without hesitation, "Yes, and there are military weapons on the ship!"

Hearing about military weapons, the Chief knew that regardless of whether it was that group of mercenaries, this was a major achievement.

But if they hadn't intercepted them at the start, his position would likely be lost.

Thinking of this, he walked over to Yue Cailan with a beam: "This is all thanks to you. Otherwise, the damage caused to the East Sea would have been immeasurable!"

However, Yue Cailan's attention had long since shifted to the bodies.

Looking at these mercenaries who had no visible injuries but were already dead,

Yue Cailan thought of the Black Snake Gang case from a while ago.

The method was exactly the same.

"Ling Xian... could it really be related to you?"

..."Lin Feng's threat has basically vanished.

The next Child of Destiny hasn't appeared yet.

With Hu Yourong at the company and Mo Xueer and Chi Taohua taking care of my daily life.

Is this what life is supposed to be?" Ling Xian lay on a lounge chair in Villa Number One, applying some sunscreen and soaking up the sun.

Actually, with Ling Xian's cultivation, he didn't need to apply any, but he enjoyed Mo Xueer's service.

Ling Xian's current situation was that the three women worked during the day and "worked" on him at night.

Of course, with his strong body and Rank 5 cultivation,

The three women combined were no match for Ling Xian.

Among them, Hu Yourong was the weakest.

After all, she was just an ordinary person.

She hadn't practiced martial arts, nor had she been injected with the Serum like Mo Xueer and Chi Taohua.

"Someday, if I have something to boost strength, I must give one to Hu Yourong."

"illusion dream, don't I have sixty thousand villain points?"

"Let's start with a five-draw on the intermediate wheel!"

Ling Xian felt that leaving ten thousand villain points was enough, so he spent fifty thousand on the lucky draw!

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one primary beauty-enhancing pill (can maintain beauty for a thousand years).]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one primary beauty-enhancing pill!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one primary beauty-enhancing pill!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Top-grade Essence-Gathering Pill (an entry-level pill, but of top-grade quality, prized for being gentle with no side effects. Taking it while practicing can increase cultivation. One day equals a hundred days of progress!).]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the first chapter of the Yin Yang Secret Canon (a dual cultivation technique, nine chapters in total).]

[Not a parasitic type, but a win-win type!]

[Using this technique greatly increases the physical fitness and cultivation of both the man and the woman.]

"Oh, not bad! As expected of the intermediate big wheel, it's not without reason that it's ten times more expensive than the primary wheel."

"These rewards are all pretty good."

The primary beauty-enhancing pills can be given to my women.

The Essence-Gathering Pill can be used for my own cultivation.

And the Yin Yang Secret Canon can be used when dual cultivating with my women.

It's practically tailor-made for him.

Thinking this, Ling Xian swallowed the Top-grade Essence-Gathering Pill in one gulp and began to practice.

It wasn't that he didn't want to give it to Ling Wu or Wu Poshan.

But Ling Xian himself hadn't practiced seriously for a long time.

If he didn't practice soon, he feared he wouldn't be able to handle the subsequent Children of Destiny.

Swallowing the Essence-Gathering Pill, a gentle warm current rose from his dantian.

Ling Xian guided this energy to circulate through his meridians in cycles. With each cycle, his internal energy increased bit by bit.

Soon, his internal energy reached an unprecedented amount.

It was forcefully packed within Ling Xian's dantian.

Half-step Grandmaster, Ling Xian!

Now, Ling Xian had broken through to Half-step Grandmaster.

As for becoming a Grandmaster, it wasn't that easy to break through.

The biggest difference between a Grandmaster and a Half-step Grandmaster is the difference in quality.

A Grandmaster compresses internal energy and transforms it into True Qi, which is a whole level higher in power than internal energy.

This is fundamentally not the same power system.

It was only because Ling Xian's cultivation technique was of such a high grade that while it appeared to be internal energy, its quality was actually significantly stronger than True Qi.
