Chapter 69: Qi opens the meridians, the Mask Alliance

The sound of rapid footsteps stopped suddenly outside the yard.

Rain mixed with snow fell from high in the sky. Li Che received the page of the pulse-opening method in his hand into the universe space, and then turned to look in the direction of the courtyard door.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and Li Che stood up and opened the door.

Then he saw a burly figure wearing a bamboo hat standing outside the door. His majestic energy and blood were like burning fire, and he could feel the heat just by getting closer.

The black hair is flying, the muscles are knotted, and the muscles and bones are roaring like a python.

Standing there, it was as if he was silently angry and roaring.

The burly figure knocked politely on the door, which made Li Che's attitude improve a bit.

"Your Excellency?"

"Master Li, I'm from the City Lord's Mansion. My name is Cao Qingyuan." The burly man's eyes were blazing, but he quickly glanced into the courtyard and found no figure. His thick eyebrows couldn't help but raise.

"Cao Qingyuan..." Li Che was stunned.

Immediately he cupped his fists and bowed: "Li Che, a common man, has met the young city lord."

"You're welcome, Master Li. Since you have become a master of wood carving, you will be a guest of my city lord's palace... My father specially asked me to come and ask Master Li to show his skills."

The burly man Cao Qingyuan returned the greeting with a smile, but his attitude was quite modest.

However, Cao Qingyuan put great pressure on Li Che, as if he was facing an angry-looking Buddha, and his hair stood on end all the time.

That's because Cao Qingyuan's overflowing [Wrathful Amitabha] divine nature stimulates Li Che all the time.

Feilei Young Master, Cao Qingyuan!

Divine monk!

It is not a secret that Cao Guang, the lord of Feilei City, has a son who has stepped into the divine foundation. In the early years, there was talk of the four sons of Feilei, one of whom was Cao Qingyuan, the son of Cao Guang.

But when Cao Qingyuan created the Divine Foundation, the title of Fourth Young Master Feilei was no longer worthy of him.

"Young City Lord, I'm sorry, I've recently reached a critical moment in bone tempering, and I'm about to hit the blood exchange level, so... I may not be able to accept the mission from Lord City Lord."

Li Che politely rejected Cao Qingyuan.

Cao Qingyuan didn't care, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, Master Li can focus on blood exchange during this period, as long as this wooden sculpture is completed within a month."

"The shape of the wood carving is here. There is also a deposit. One hundred gold leaves should be paid first, and the remaining four hundred will be sent to Master Li after he completes the work."

A divine monk came to the door, his attitude was quite gentle, and he did not require a mandatory time to complete it.

Li Che also understood that this was a gentle way to block the route of rejection.

If he refuses again, it would mean that he does not know what is good or bad.

Li Che thought for a while, but no longer refused, and took the diagram and a hundred gold leaves.

When Cao Qingyuan saw this, a smile suddenly broke out on his face. He pressed his hat, took a deep look at the independent workshop, and turned to leave.

Looking at the wooden sculpture in his hand, Li Che narrowed his eyes.

"Eighteen virgins held up lotuses to worship the image of the wrathful Maha..."

…

Cao Qingyuan returned to the city lord's mansion.

Taking off his bamboo hat, Cao Qingyuan slowly stepped into the house.

Although it is daytime, the whole room is very dim. White candles are lit one after another, densely packed and paved like stairs. Next to each candle, there are thumb-sized redwood candles. Carved wood carving.

Reflected in the candlelight, each wooden sculpture seemed to be bleeding.

The faint candlelight jumps between yellow and green.

Cao Qingyuan's heart felt as if it was being grasped. Even as a god-based monk, he felt like he was afraid to breathe.

"Then Li Che... took the order?"

A faint and hoarse voice came from deep inside the mansion. Cao Qingyuan respectfully saluted: "Go back to father, he took it."

"Just take it..."

"The Xu family originally sold him to our city lord's palace. Since he accepted the order, he will save the process of asking you to capture him."

"As long as he completes the carving, it will be enough..."

"Father, what if he takes the order but doesn't make it?"

There was silence in the room.

After a moment, a faint voice sounded: "He wouldn't dare..."

"In addition... there are still three soul boys missing for the Thousand Buddha Sculpture Banquet. The An family has one, and the Yang family is gone, but... there are still two in the Xu family's monastery..."

"There are two in the Xu family?"

"One is Li Che's daughter, and there is a big-headed soul boy...hehehe buy one get one free..."

"The Xu family agrees?"

"The soul boy in the city has been favored by Shenzong... The Xu family and the An family can't keep him, so they might as well use him as a bargaining chip."

"The Xu family, the An family and the Yang family all wanted to take advantage of it... so they evacuated Feilei City... Therefore, they had to agree..."

"A bunch of stupid people, coexisting with the temple god... What an honor is that?"

The hoarse voice sounded faintly, with a bit of disdainful sneer.

Cao Qingyuan suddenly fell silent.

"Zhao Xuanhai is dead, who can do it?"

"Zhang Xiangyang or Zhou Ruoguan?"

After a long time, Cao Qingyuan asked with a frown.

The silence in the room was broken.

The hoarse voice echoed.

"Yang family."

…

Li Qingshan gave Li Che three days to attack Tongmai.

In fact, it’s really too much.

Within an independent workshop.

Li Che first used the [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit to spread the spiritual chessboard around him, sensed the situation, and after confirming that there was no problem, began to attack the Tongmai.

The "Qianyuan Shenzong Xiao Zhou Tian Tongmai Method" given by Li Qingshan is actually not complicated. No wonder it is so enjoyable, but it is actually all theoretical content.

Specific operation depends on the warrior himself. Li Che has the [Dragon Elephant Vajra] Dao Fruit, and his foundation is too solid. Although it is difficult to open the meridians, for Li Che... it feels like a natural and smooth process.

The flying snow fell down and was twisted and thrown away by the invisible force above Li Che's head.

Li Che fell down and sat in the courtyard. The invisible airflow swirled around his body, rotating continuously in a spiral shape.

The qi generated in the qi and blood merged with the internal strength, running the five internal organs and the eight extraordinary meridians, forming the fixed small circulation of the internal qi meridians of the Qianyuan Divine Sect, which penetrated the six directions.

The strength of the fourth level of internal strength, combined with the qi generated by the opening of the meridians, is the "internal qi".

The internal qi encircles the heart. As the heart contracts and expands, the gushing internal qi flows along the membrane, encircling the five internal organs and the fine and complicated small circulation meridians!

Li Che opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a bright light flickering.

He stood up, his muscles and bones all rang, the blood flowed faster and more powerfully, and the power formed was even more terrifying.

Huh——

Inhale!

Between the breath and the inhale, the wind and snow of the world rolled, as if the qi and the world were blending.

"Qi channel, it's done!"

...

Three days passed in a flash.

After breaking through the Qi channel, Li Che used the abundant time to cultivate the divine secret art of [Amitabha Golden Clothes] and reached the level of minor success.

Zhao Xuanhai's divine chess pieces have now been refined by Li Che. Now in the inner view of the Niwan, the divinity of [Wrathful Amitabha] is like a trickling stream, nourishing the nature like a stream.

Looking at the sky, it was rare to be sunny today, and it didn't snow.

Although the air was still chilly, it was a bit warm and comfortable.

Li Che changed into a stretch suit, put on a hat, sat under the eaves, and slowly carved a cute cow mask with a carving knife.

After the mask was put on his face, he checked the poisoned sleeve crossbow, Guanyin poison lotus, Bodhi blood tears and other hidden weapons, and counted the 6,000 wooden ravens stored in the Qiankun arsenal. Only then did Li Che feel at ease and gracefully left the independent workshop.

If it were before, Li Che would never leave the city. He was worried about being so far away from Xixi.

But with the "Flying Thunder Chess Saint", as long as the divine chess piece fell on Xixi, he could travel far away with peace of mind. At least when Xixi was in trouble, he could sense it and rush to her very quickly.

With his daughter's safety guaranteed, the old father could do things with peace of mind.

The breath-retaining ability of the "Sleeping Dragon Elephant" became stronger and stronger.

It was almost as if it completely erased its own sense of existence.

He easily left the inner city and the outer city with weaker defense.

As soon as he left the outer city...

A hunched and short figure appeared silently.

Li Che glanced at the person who came, and saw that he was also dressed in black and wearing a cat-faced mask.

"Senior Qingshan?" Li Che said muffledly under the cute cow mask.

"It's me." A response came from under the cat-faced mask.

Li Che: "..."

Why are you wearing a mask too?

Everyone wears a mask...
