Chapter 110: Is it that simple?
For a long time, Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen and Liang Jingtang came back to their senses.
"Are you really just a Grandmaster who became one not long ago?" Liang Jingtang still found it hard to believe.
"Master, didn't I say, I am the most honest and loyal, why don't you believe me!" Xia Daoming said helplessly.
Liang Jingtang pouted disapprovingly, and then said: "Daoming, since you have this ability, even if Ma Tong has a cultivator secretly assisting him, your sneak attack and assassination of Ma Tong shouldn't be a problem, so I support your plan of sneak attack and assassination. It's just that our elite can't be cultivated in a short time!"
"Yes, although martial arts emphasize progress, in the situation where all forces in Li Cheng are severely damaged, it is definitely impossible to cultivate a large number of Great Martial Masters in such a short time!" Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen echoed.
"The so-called elite, the number is naturally very small!" Xia Daoming said.
"But the other side is an army of twenty thousand, with four thousand elite soldiers!" Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen frowned.
"I see that the old master is full of energy today, his eyes are deep and divine, as if he can break through the clouds and illusions, and his blood and qi strength is surging and astonishing; I think his cultivation has improved recently, and his observation of the Grandmaster Secret Map has also gained something!" Xia Daoming suddenly changed the subject.
Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen was stunned.
This is nonsense!
However, soon, Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen thought thoughtfully, and then deliberated for a while, and honestly replied: "Since stepping into the eighth-rank realm, I have specifically observed the secret map three times.
Perhaps it is as you said last time, I took the secret medicine twice, faced the test of life and death, broke and then stood, saw through many things, and my thoughts were clear, so the first time I observed the Grandmaster Secret Map, I touched the charm and traveled in it, gaining deep insights.
The second and third times I observed it, the insights were deeper, and I have already glimpsed the mystery of breaking through the Grandmaster barrier, but unfortunately, I am ultimately old; even with spirit rice and Fengming Elixir, the hope of wanting to break through the Grandmaster barrier is very small!"
"The old master is indeed a powerful person, observing the Grandmaster Secret Map three times, and he has glimpsed the mystery of the Grandmaster!" Xia Daoming said with admiration.
Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen pouted disapprovingly.
You are already a Grandmaster at such a young age; is this praising me? Or damaging me?
Of course, secretly grumbling aside, Xia Daoming's words were still very useful to Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen; he himself was also quite proud.
After all, the Ji Clan had only produced one Grandmaster in past generations, and now he could glimpse the mystery of the Grandmaster; among the predecessors of the Ji Clan, in terms of talent and strength, he could definitely rank among the best!
"You don't have to praise me! I know what you mean, but I can't become a Grandmaster; even if my strength is still improving recently, it won't be useful in the end.
If I become a Grandmaster, it will be different; one person can resist the entire elite army of Li Cheng now, and it will be more than enough." Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen said.
"The old master is indeed wise in his old age; as soon as I opened my mouth, you saw through my thoughts." Xia Daoming praised with admiration again.
"After all, I have lived for a long time and have seen many things and people!" Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen said with some pride, stroking his beard.
"I was originally worried that the old master hadn't glimpsed the mystery of the Grandmaster, so in the short term, Li Cheng would at most have my master as a Grandmaster, which would ultimately be a bit short.
Now that the old master has glimpsed the mystery of the Grandmaster, that couldn't be better. I think if two Grandmasters lead the team, it should be considered the elite of the elite, no need to pull many people to make up the number!" Xia Daoming said lightly.
"What!" Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen stroked his beard and jumped up from his chair.
"I, I am also a Grandmaster!" Liang Jingtang's tiger eyes widened, his beard curled up, and his expression was even more exaggerated, almost sliding off the chair.
If someone else said this, he could treat it as farting, but Xia Daoming's words were completely different!
This kid is perverted; he can really do it!
"Old master, master, don't be excited, don't be excited! You have lived for a long time and have seen many things and people..." Xia Daoming said hurriedly when he saw this.
"Ahem!"
Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen was choked by his saliva in complex emotions.
Xia Daoming hurriedly patted his back.
"Daoming, can I really become a Grandmaster?" The old master looked at Xia Daoming eagerly.
Xia Daoming didn't answer the old master, but grabbed the cloth covering the large flatbed cart in the air.
The cloth was lifted, instantly revealing a large section of the coiled Golden-Scaled Blood-Eyed Snake body and a package placed on it.
"What a big Golden-Scaled Blood-Eyed Snake!" Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen said with a look of surprise.
"No, this snake has feet, and there is a fleshy lump on its forehead; it is no longer a pure snake, but half-dragon and half-snake." Liang Jingtang had practiced the Dragon Snake Technique for most of his life and had a lot of research in this area, so he soon corrected it.
However, when he said this, his face was full of shock.
"Master has good eyes!" Xia Daoming patted a flatter, and then grabbed again in the air, and the package placed on the snake body flew into his hand.
Xia Daoming opened the package, took out two snake eggs and handed them to Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen, saying: "I ate one of these snake eggs; the energy is very pure, full of vitality, and relatively mild. Old master, take them to make scrambled eggs to nourish your body, and you can also cut a small section of this snake meat to take back later.
However, this snake meat is very strong, and it is estimated that only you can eat it in the Ji Clan now; others had better not eat it, so as not to hurt their meridians.
If so, you still can't break through the barrier, I can only give you a spirit fruit to eat later; anyway, I must let you break through the barrier in a short time and rejuvenate!"
Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen subconsciously took the two snake eggs, and his brain was buzzing!
The Grandmaster Dao, which is so difficult and unattainable for countless martial artists, became as simple as two eggs and a little snake meat here at Xia Daoming's!
This made Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen really hard to accept for a while!
Liang Jingtang looked at the two eggs in Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen's hand and then at the big meat of the half-dragon and half-snake on the flatbed cart, swallowed hard, and couldn't care about the face and bones of a master, leaned in front of Xia Daoming, and said: "Daoming, what about me? The old master has a Grandmaster Secret Map, but I don't, so it's useless for you to replenish me!"
"Grandmaster Secret Maps are made by Great Grandmasters, I certainly don't have them!" Xia Daoming blurted out.
"Then what should I do? How can I become a Grandmaster? You can't leave me alone!" Liang Jingtang was dumbfounded.
He thought Xia Daoming had become a Grandmaster, so this trip out must have been to get a Grandmaster Secret Map, but he didn't have one!
Without a Grandmaster Secret Map, it would be useless for him to eat more eggs!
Seeing Liang Jingtang dumbfounded, Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen felt a little sympathy and a sense of superiority.
Having a Grandmaster Secret Map at home is different!
When you want to study, you can take it out to study, so that when the opportunity comes, you can grasp it.
Otherwise, you can only stare blankly.
Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen was secretly feeling a sense of superiority in his heart, when he saw Xia Daoming take out a red fruit from the package he was carrying and stuff it to Liang Jingtang.
"Master, observing the secret map is time-consuming, laborious, and brain-consuming! These few days, you should eat more snake meat; you practice the Dragon Snake Technique, so eating this snake meat is the most suitable; try to cultivate your blood and qi strength to the peak state, and then you eat this fruit, and then you will naturally be able to understand the mystery of transforming into a dragon, break through the barrier, and become a Martial Arts Grandmaster." Xia Daoming said.
"Is it that simple?" Liang Jingtang widened his eyes, feeling as if he were listening to a heavenly book.
"Of course it's that simple, otherwise what do you want? This is a Transforming Dragon Fruit, a fruit that grows where the blood of a true dragon has been spilled, according to legend; it naturally carries the mystery of transforming into a dragon.
Those of us who practice the Dragon Snake Technique eat it, not only will our cultivation increase greatly, but we will naturally understand the mystery of transforming into a dragon, and it should be more profound than observing the secret map!
I risked my life to pick this fruit!" Xia Daoming said.
"The world
actually has such a strange fruit; eating it, you can understand the mystery of the Grandmaster without observing and comprehending the secret map! Good fruit! Good fruit!" Liang Jingtang stared at the Transforming Dragon Fruit in his hand, his eyes shining, praising it endlessly, wishing he could take a few bites on the spot.
Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen looked at Liang Jingtang's excited look with shining eyes, dumbfounded, and sour!
No justice!
"Ahem, Master, didn't you hear the last sentence I said just now?" Xia Daoming reminded.
Although I said it was a life-and-death risk, it was an exaggeration, but you can't take it so lightly!
"Ah, ah, oh, oh, good apprentice, good apprentice, you have worked hard." Liang Jingtang finally moved his eyes away from the Transforming Dragon Fruit, patted Xia Daoming's shoulder, and praised him repeatedly.
"Not hard, this is what the disciple should do." Xia Daoming said with a serious expression.
Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen was sour again when he saw this!
However, when Xia Daoming personally cut a section of white and tender snake meat and wrapped it up to offer to him, Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen was happy again, and the sense of superiority in his heart began to emerge quietly again.
Fortunately, I have a good granddaughter!
Liang Jingtang still can't compare to me in this point!
Secretly feeling a little proud in his heart, Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen chatted with Xia Daoming and Liang Jingtang a few words, then carried the snake meat and left with a full smile.
Since Xia Daoming had become an extremely powerful Grandmaster, and he and Liang Jingtang also hoped to become Grandmasters in the short term, there was nothing to worry about in Li Cheng, and nothing to discuss; the top priority was to become a Grandmaster as soon as possible.
"Master, is Xu Shixiong Gu still in Chishui City?" After Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen left, Xia Daoming suddenly asked.
Liang Jingtang's hand holding the Transforming Dragon Fruit shook significantly when he heard this, nodded and said: "Yes, he is still in his hometown in Chishui City. Last time you gave me the Longevity Jade Liquid, I once ordered your Xu Shixiong Zhuo to send some to him when it was convenient for him to escort goods, to see if it had any effect. However, not only are his meridians damaged in many places, but the damage is also very serious, and the effect of the Longevity Jade Liquid is limited."
Liang Jingtang stopped here, looked up at Xia Daoming, and stopped talking.
"Since that's the case, you can let Xu Shixiong Zhuo go to Chishui City another day, pick up Xu Shixiong Gu, and cook some spirit rice porridge every day to condition him; he should be able to recover." Xia Daoming said.
"This, is this okay?" Liang Jingtang's eyes turned red with excitement upon hearing this.
He once regarded Gu Ren as his own, and had a very deep master-apprentice relationship.
After the situation in Li Cheng stabilized, during the time Xia Daoming entered the Cangmang Mountains, Liang Jingtang actually had the idea of picking up Gu Ren to Li Cheng and cooking some spirit rice porridge to condition him.
But spirit rice is of great importance, and it was also given by Xia Daoming; even if he was a master, he would never dare to make his own claims, and considering his status, he didn't even find it convenient to bring up this topic.
Now, Xia Daoming took the initiative to bring it up, how could he not be excited?
