Chapter 63: Jade Tiger Bone, Mid-Stage of Bone Strengthening!
The Jade Tiger Bone Strengthening Pills were placed in front of him, and a faint fragrance lingered around Wu He's nose.
He accepted it with delight, examined it briefly, and then asked with a smile, "It can even be used to forge unusual bones?"
For martial arts practitioners, if a certain part of their body is different from that of ordinary people, it often means that they have unique talent in martial arts training.
For example, Shi Baoji, whom I met before, was very famous for his Xuanwu bone structure. Throughout history, without exception, all those with this bone structure have become renowned masters of external martial arts.
Wu He originally thought these things could only be innate, but he didn't expect Wen Qiaoniang to say that they could also be cultivated later.
She explained, "It's possible to develop, but the chances are usually very slim."
"I added some other medicinal herbs to the Jade Tiger Bone Strengthening Pill I made. It's more likely that I'll use it in combination with the array-based medicinal soup to nourish myself while practicing martial arts."
"it is good."
Wu He happily accepted it, cupped Wen Qiaoniang's face, and gave her a big kiss.
Regardless of whether one can refine the Jade Tiger Bone, this medicine that can harden and strengthen one's bones is excellent.
After Wen Qiaoniang examined Li Bo's injuries and confirmed that slight movement would not cause any harm, Wu He had a sedan chair brought over and transported him to his residence.
For safety reasons, I placed it in my own training room so that I could prevent anyone from harming me while I was practicing.
After finishing all that, Wu He finally swallowed the Jade Tiger Bone Strengthening Pill.
The moment it entered my stomach, the surging, scalding heat felt like erupting volcanic lava, exploding and bursting within me.
It was like a large herd of mad bulls charging around, causing a slight stinging pain in his internal organs.
For a time, apart from most of it being incorporated into its own bones, a considerable amount still dissipated and wasted.
However, one of the streams crashed into his dantian, but before it even touched him, his abundant innate qi automatically flowed out, enveloping it and instantly immobilizing it.
"it works?!"
Wu He noticed this and his expression brightened. He then used his innate Qi to block back all the dissipated medicinal power and integrate it into his bones.
In this way, the absorption effect is practically perfect!
"I never imagined that primordial Qi could have such wonderful uses."
Wu He was pleasantly surprised and immediately ate all the Jade Tiger Bone Strengthening Pills that Wen Qiaoniang had made at once.
With the control of innate Qi, taking medicine is as easy as eating candy.
At the same time, he began practicing Tiger Walking Technique.
[Progress completed (Tiger Stance Basics): 36/100]
……
[Progress completed (Tiger Stance Basics): 37/100]
……
With the help of this medicine, the efficiency of Tiger's Path Technique cultivation increased several times, and the progress increased visibly.
It wasn't until the golden light of dusk shone in that the last trace of the medicine was completely absorbed.
Simultaneously.
[Progress completed (Tiger Stance Basics): 100/100]
The progress was completed in one day!
It truly lives up to its reputation as a treasure beast with a history spanning centuries!
Wu He couldn't contain his joy and chose to continue with the advance payment without hesitation.
[Martial arts skills already advanced: Tiger Stance Technique, Minor Success]
[Walking on the bridge, bones tremble like steel. Opening and closing movements are explosive, producing a thunderous sound.]
[Next Stage Preview: Tiger's Journey Achieved]
[With each joint connected, power flows freely. Subduing power within the marrow, the spirit and bones naturally become shrewd.]
The Book of Debt floats before my eyes.
Wu He looked up and digested the essence of the minor achievement for several dozen breaths before regaining his senses.
He then threw a simple punch, and the sound of his bones cracking echoed again, but this time it sounded like a thunderous explosion.
The moment I threw the punch, I felt as if I had pushed a mountain away with my bare hands.
boom!
Before he could even react, a powerful gust of wind blasted out, overturning all the furnishings in front of him and cracking the fragile wooden windows.
Wu He was stunned, staring at his fist in disbelief.
The punch unleashed a power akin to sonic waves, which was excessively strong and not something one would expect from a mid-stage Bone Strengthening cultivator.
He felt the blood and qi in his chest cavity, which was normal, just the standard concentration of mid-stage bone strengthening.
The primordial Qi in the dantian hadn't moved at all, meaning that the amplification from the Golden Light Mantra hadn't been taken into account in this punch.
That would be...
He looked thoughtful, just as Wen Qiaoniang walked in carrying a medicine box, ready to give him acupuncture to relax, just as agreed.
As soon as she touched Wu He's back, she stopped and then pressed several bones, not even sparing the groin area.
"You've mastered it!!"
"What have you mastered?"
"Jade Tiger's inherent talent."
Wen Qiaoniang's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in great shock, "The bones in your body are the Jade Tiger Bones described in the book!"
"My God, it's only been a few hours, and those pills I made are already that miraculous?"
Seeing her bewildered expression, Wu He suddenly understood.
It turned out that he had used his innate Qi to perfectly digest the medicinal power, and coincidentally, his progress in the initial stage was made up, thus pre-emptively reaching the minor stage of bone strengthening.
The two combined allowed him to cultivate the Jade Tiger Bone.
No wonder that punch was so powerful. Thinking about it carefully, I felt my bones were slightly warm when I threw the punch, and the force flowed smoothly.
He actually developed extraordinary bones through his own training.
Wu He then smiled and said, "It's the result of the innate Qi assisting in the digestion of the medicine. Of course, the medicine you prepared is also of superior quality."
Wen Qiaoniang swallowed hard and exclaimed, "Your martial arts training is truly extraordinary. If you weren't a mortal, I would think you were a celestial being descended to earth, holding a heavenly book."
Wu He smiled.
Heavenly Book...
The ledger is about right.
……
into the night.
Wu Hegang had just finished his dinner at the training room when the sound of horses' hooves suddenly stopped at the outer courtyard gate. Sun Lin then strode in, made a few inquiries, and rushed into the training room.
"Sir, something has happened."
"What is it?"
"Recently, Du Jianlian, one of the ten scouts of the Control Crane Army, captured a group of merchants entering and leaving the border, forty li outside Waqiao Pass..."
Sun Lin's words flew out rapidly like marbles.
It turned out that Du Jianlian, as the captain of the scout team, often went out to gather information about the Liao Kingdom. On his way back from this trip, he took the opportunity to wipe out a group of Liao spies.
Immediately afterwards, family members came to complain and accuse Du Jianlian of indiscriminately killing innocent people.
According to her, this caravan of merchants traveling in and out of the border sold cloth from the Central Plains and brought in horses and bone artifacts from the Liao Dynasty.
This was not a big deal in itself; the imperial court's border defense policy included allowing trade and exchange to obtain resources such as livestock that were relatively scarce in the Central Plains.
As long as one possesses relevant official documents and a border trade certificate issued by the Ministry of Revenue, one can enter and exit the country to buy and sell goods; this is something that both countries agree on.
However, Du Jianlian forcibly accused them of being spies and agents, not only confiscating all the goods and money but also killing all the people.
Upon hearing this, Xiang Zeting, the commander of the 12th Army of the Right Wing of the Tiger Swift Army, who had stayed behind with Wu He to build the camp, was outraged and immediately led his men to the Crane Control Army to hold them accountable.
The two families already had a feud, and Xiang Zeting was a staunch supporter of the Imperial Guard, so he would certainly not easily let go of this opportunity to suppress the Crane Control Army.
"My lord, what do you think of this matter..."
After learning the whole story, Wu He remained calm and said, "Let Military Envoy Xiang make his own decision."
It's a small matter; he doesn't want to leave here because of it.
At least, we should wait until Li Bo wakes up before we talk about it.
"However, the military commander said that you are an imperial censor and have the responsibility to supervise. It wouldn't look good if you didn't handle this matter," Sun Lin said embarrassedly.
He probably wants my pledge of allegiance on Qiao Gu's behalf.
Wu He scoffed inwardly, but then realized it was indeed his duty.
A new broom sweeps clean; it's time for me to do the same.
As for Li Bo...
"Carry the sedan chair and let my godfather come with me."
"It seems I won't be able to get past General Qiao until a few people die today."
