“Primordial Qi!”
Just by the name, the three hundred-year-old men present knew the preciousness of the purple Qi.
Lu Jin’s hands trembled, his eyes filled with fascination as he looked at the purple Qi in the Qi bubble.
“No wonder I was so captivated the moment I saw it, my body has a deep desire for it.”
“This Primordial Qi is so similar to the Primordial One Qi!”
The San Yi sect’s treasured skill, Reverse Life Triple, aims to reverse the five Qis within the body back to the state of Primordial One Qi.
If Lu Jin could obtain even a trace of Primordial Qi, his cultivation of Reverse Life Triple would undoubtedly take a significant leap forward!
Similarly, Tian Jin Zhong's old and weary eyes were filled with longing.
His disabled body resembled a parched riverbed.
However.
The instant the Primordial Qi appeared.
A hint of moisture suddenly emerged in the once parched riverbed.
Every cell in Tian Jin Zhong’s body frantically absorbed this trace of moisture.
Even his severed meridians trembled.
As if they were about to come alive!
The Heavenly Master could also sense his own desire for the Primordial Qi.
This desire was unmarred by any worldly desires.
Just like the need to eat when hungry, drink when thirsty, and sleep when tired.
His body simply yearned for that wisp of Primordial Qi!
“In the scriptures of my Daoist sect, it is recorded that the ancient immortals absorbed the Primordial Qi from heaven and earth, achieving immortality.”
“All this time, I thought it was just a legend.”
“I never imagined that I would witness Primordial Qi with my own eyes in my lifetime!”
Fang Yang, holding the Qi bubble, explained:
“Primordial Qi has boundless uses!”
“It can allow an ordinary person to cultivate Qi and become an Ethereal!”
“It can also heal serious injuries, and even prolong life!”
“It can even repair a person’s damaged bodily functions!”
After saying the last sentence, Fang Yang winked at Tian Jin Zhong.
The Heavenly Master immediately understood.
“So, this Primordial Qi is what you want to exchange for the Golden Light Mantra and Yang Five Thunders, right?”
“Your previous intel was just a throw-in!”
The importance of Primordial Qi was far greater than that of the intel on the entirety of the All Heaven’s Sect!
If this trace of Primordial Qi were to be released into the world, it would undoubtedly spark a struggle for it throughout the entire Ethereal world.
It was a treasure beyond compare!
Tian Jin Zhong understood as well.
His voice trembled as he spoke.
“Can this Primordial Qi heal my body?”
Fang Yang smiled slightly.
“To say that it can make your severed limbs grow back, that’s impossible, as this wisp of Primordial Qi is too little.”
“But to restore your meridians and allow you to cultivate Qi again, that’s easily done!”
Tian Jin Zhong’s heart pounded, tears welling up in his eyes.
For all these years.
He had been stripped of his cultivation and reduced to a cripple for all these years!
In his old age, he had finally glimpsed hope again.
It’s just a pity… his heart was already dead.
“Senior brother, there’s no need to betray the interests of the Longhushan for me!”
But why did he feel so unwilling in his heart?
Tian Jin Zhong secretly hated his own weakness.
Because he truly desired this wisp of Primordial Qi!
The Heavenly Master squinted his eyes, looking at the Qi bubble in Fang Yang’s hand, and chuckled.
“This deal can be made!”
“I’ll exchange this wisp of Primordial Qi for the Golden Light Mantra!”
“The Golden Light Mantra is indeed powerful, but it’s just a fundamental skill of my Longhushan, other Daoist sects also have it, even if Fang Yang learns it, it’s nothing.”
“And regarding the intel on the All Heaven’s Sect, I’ll exchange it for the Yang Five Thunders!”
“After all, the intel on the All Heaven’s Sect concerns the survival of my Longhushan!”
“If that bunch of demons from the All Heaven’s Sect were to attack and, by chance, my Longhushan were to be wiped out, our lineage extinguished, what good would it be to have the Yang Five Thunders hidden away!”
“Today, I, the old Daoist, will make an exception and pass on the Yang Five Thunders to Fang Yang, as a way to thank him for resolving the crisis of my Longhushan!”
“Our ancestors wouldn’t blame me for this!”
On matters of principle, the Heavenly Master never compromised.
But when it came to some minor matters, his bottom line was incredibly flexible.
The Golden Light Mantra and the Yang Five Thunders were minor matters in the Heavenly Master’s eyes.
On the side.
Tian Jin Zhong and Lu Jin were stunned.
The All Heaven’s Sect can wipe out Longhushan?
What a joke!
By chance?
How much of a coincidence would it take for Longhushan to be wiped out by the All Heaven’s Sect?
Are you, the Heavenly Master, a vegetarian?
Even if you tied the demons of the All Heaven’s Sect together, they wouldn’t be your match!
But they didn’t object to the Heavenly Master’s blatant lie.
After all, it was a situation where everyone benefited.
So.
Fang Yang infused the Primordial Qi into Tian Jin Zhong’s body.
The Heavenly Master taught Fang Yang the Golden Light Mantra and the Yang Five Thunders.
At the same time.
Fang Yang also received Lu Jin’s instruction in the Heavenly Mandate Scroll.
And Fang Yang, returning the favor, gave Lu Jin a wisp of Primordial Qi.
“I get some too?”
“After all, you taught me the Heavenly Mandate Scroll, fair trade.”
“But… the reason I taught you the Heavenly Mandate Scroll was so you would deliberately lose the match.”
“Just take it, I just don’t like owing people favors.”
“But I owe you a favor, damn it!”
Lu Jin sighed.
He owed a huge favor!
Fang Yang was deliberate.
He specifically wanted Lu Jin to owe him a favor.
The story of the One-Punch Man world hadn’t fully unfolded yet.
He had only acquired one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques.
He would continue to enter this world for a long time to come.
If he encountered an enemy he couldn’t handle, Lu Jin’s favor would be a life-saving trump card.
Fang Yang even wanted to make the Heavenly Master owe him a favor, but he failed.
The Heavenly Master was ultimately the Heavenly Master, he didn’t have much desire to improve his own strength.
In his younger years, he could slap Lu Jin till he cried.
He still could now!
That’s the worth of being “One-Punch Man.”
“Fang Yang, kid, you’ll be facing Zhang Ling Yu next…”
“I know what to do, just forfeit!”
“No, I want you to have a great battle with Ling Yu… aren’t you a prodigy with incredible aptitude? Learn the Golden Light Mantra and the Yang Five Thunders now, during the match, try to force out all of Ling Yu’s strength!”
Fang Yang was stunned, but quickly understood.
“I get it, you want me to set an example for Zhang Chulan?”
The Heavenly Master nodded.
“That’s right, I want Chulan to see Ling Yu’s strength, so he can be mentally prepared.”
The Heavenly Master had other plans.
Such as weakening Zhang Ling Yu’s combat strength.
How to weaken Zhang Ling Yu’s combat strength?
Drug him!
Of course, the Heavenly Master wouldn’t reveal this to outsiders.
Fang Yang agreed.
He also wanted to see how much of a gap existed between him and the top young talents of the Ethereal world!
That night.
An unexpected visitor sought out Fang Yang.
Feng Sha Yan!
