I Have A Martial Arts Panel

Chapter 239 Massive Resources, Second Stage Dao Realm

After Xu Ning left the Faint Bamboo Forest, he found Gray.

According to Leng Ran’s advice, he should go to Guanghe Canton and find a person named Cheng Zengtao.

But before that, Xu Ning decided to find a quiet place and enter the Hidden Moon Bead to take a look.

If the conditions allowed, Xu Ning wanted to absorb some of the resources in the Hidden Moon Bead and advance to the second stage dao realm first.

Whether it was Wan Ye or Leng Ran just now, they both told Xu Ning to ensure his martial arts advancement speed.

Only when he became stronger could the Swallow Heron Sect stand firm after rebuilding.

Thus, Xu Ning brought Gray to a desolate mountain on the outskirts.

Xu Ning found a cave and entered it.

“Gray, I’ll take a look at the Hidden Moon Bead. Take good care of it.”

Xu Ning said to Gray.

At this point, Xu Ning had already dropped his blood into the Hidden Moon Bead and completely refined it.

“Brother, don’t worry.”

Gray nodded vigorously.

Whether it was the bead formed by the Demon Beast Scroll or the Hidden Moon Bead, after the owner of the secret treasure refined it, he could enter freely and completely hide himself from danger.

However, after entering, the secret treasure would be exposed, so he had to hide it well.

Otherwise, if the enemy discovered it and destroyed the secret treasure from the outside, the secret treasure space would completely collapse and be swept into the space-time turbulence, causing everything inside to be completely annihilated.

Only after handing the mission of protecting the Hidden Moon Bead to Gray, Xu Ning was relieved.

Moving his consciousness, he appeared in the Hidden Moon Bead.

Swoosh!

The scene changed.

Xu Ning felt like he was suddenly in the middle of the night, surrounded by darkness.

He looked up and saw a bright full moon hanging high in the air, scattering silver light, preventing the space from falling into complete darkness.

‘It really is a Hidden Moon Bead…’ Xu Ning stared at the round moon and thought to himself.

Afterwards, Xu Ning looked around and saw that not far away, there were items piled up like hills.

Xu Ning walked over.

‘Is this the Swallow Heron Sect’s treasury?’

Xu Ning looked at the large amount of resources in front of him with surprise in his eyes.

The types of resources in front of him were mainly divided into medicinal pills, spirit medicines, dao weapons, and some other special artifacts.

‘If these things were exchanged for energy sources of the same price, they would be worth 8 million units of energy! Even just medicinal pills and spirit medicine alone would provide more than 5 million units of energy!’

Xu Ning had a rough estimate of the energy value of the resources here with the examination of the Martial Arts Panel.

‘Although the Swallow Heron Sect was at its end when they hid these resources, the amount of resources here far exceeds what I obtained from the Jade Night Sect…’

Xu Ning had looted all of the resources of the Jade Night Sect from Lu Zhanxing, the Sect Master of the Jade Night Sect. The total amount was only 400,000 units, with Xu Ning only absorbing 300,000 units. A sect at the end of its twilight years had twenty times the amount of resources of the Jade Night Sect.

‘I can’t use all of this on myself…’

Xu Ning thought to himself, ‘After all, I still have to preserve a portion of the resources and use it to rebuild the Swallow Heron Sect.’

Xu Ning was not a person without principles. He would naturally do what he promised Wan

Ye.

He couldn’t abandon the rebuilding of the Swallow Heron Sect for his own selfish reasons.

‘However, I am the foundation of the Swallow Heron Sect, so spending more resources on myself is the right choice. Once my strength improves, I can also nurture the Swallow Heron Sect.’

Xu Ning thought clearly.

“The resources in this Hidden Moon Bead should be enough for me to advance to the fourth stage of the dao realm and become a mid level dao realm master.’

Xu Ning thought to himself, ‘Now I will absorb a portion of the energy and advance my strength to the second stage dao realm. And after finding suitable attribute true origins, I will use the resources here to advance to the third stage dao realm.’

After advancing to the astral qi realm, if he wanted to advance to the origin returnance realm, he had to find enough attribute true origins.

Xu Ning had condensed six attribute seeds, three water and three fire seeds, which meant that Xu Ning had to find three water and three fire attribute true origins each.

Only after gathering six attribute true origins, Xu Ning could use energy again to advance.

Afterwards, Xu Ning began to absorb energy from the small mountain of pills.

A notification appeared in Xu Ning’s eyes and?ears.

‘When I advanced the Red Sea Pill Sutra to the first level, I consumed 100,000 units of energy, so I still have 350,000 units of energy left. I’m still 550,000 units of energy away from reaching the astral qi realm.’ Xu Ning had to absorb another 550,000 units of energy in order to advance to the astral qi realm.

Time flew by.

Xu Ning soon absorbed 550,000 units of energy.

“This is enough to advance to the astral qi realm!’

Xu Ning was overjoyed. ‘Next, I should leave the Hidden Moon Bead and advance.’

The reason why he wanted to advance in the outside world was because the Hidden Moon Bead was an independent space with almost no spiritual energy.

If he broke through here, he would need to absorb a huge amount of spiritual energy to advance. If he advanced in a place with no spiritual energy, he would become a dried-up shrimp, and he would also be seriously injured during his advancement.

Swoosh!

Xu Ning moved his body out of the Hidden Moon Bead.

“Brother, you’re out?”

Gray quickly appeared and leaned over.

“Okay.”

Xu Ning nodded. “I’m ready to advance to the astral qi realm.”

“Brother is going to advance again?”

Gray’s eyes were full of worship. In Gray’s eyes, Xu Ning was a powerful brother.

Gray felt that Xu Ning would always break through every now and then.

His breakthrough was like the process of a person’s growth. It came naturally.

There was no awkwardness unlike when other martial arts masters were stuck in a realm.

“Don’t be lazy all day. You have to find a way to stimulate your bloodline and advance to the dao realm as soon as possible.”

Before Xu Ning advanced, he didn’t forget to beat some motivation into Gray.

Hearing this, Gray rolled its eyes.

Xu Ning ignored it and opened the Martial Arts Panel. He pressed on the ‘+’ sign next to the realm.

Consume 900,000 units of energy to advance your realm?

Yes / No

“Yes!”

After confirming this, Xu Ning felt that his powerful body from the body smelting realm had begun to strengthen again.

The surging spiritual energy was absorbed into Xu Ning’s body in a vortex shape.

Such turbulent spiritual energy!’

The amount of spiritual energy that surged into his body shocked even Xu Ning.

The stronger a person’s foundation was, the more spiritual energy they would have to absorb to advance their realm.

‘If I were in the Abyss North, I might not have been able to successfully advance…’

The spiritual energy in the Abyss North was thin. If Xu Ning really tried to break through there, even if he succeeded, he would definitely be injured, which would affect his foundation.

“The power of the dao realm is changing…’

Xu Ning felt that the dao realm power in his body was rapidly changing.

‘In the future, I can activate my astral qi with my dao realm power!’

The pleasure of breaking through made Xu Ning feel relaxed.

Whoosh!

Finally, Xu Ning felt his blood boiling, and his dao realm power surged. ‘Second stage dao realm, astral qi realm, done!’

Xu Ning looked at the Martial Arts Panel.

Name: Xu Ning Stage: Dao Realm Second Stage: Astral Qi Realm

Martial Arts:

Available Energy: 0 units

The Martial Arts Panel had been refreshed.

“There is no ‘+’ next to the astral qi realm. This shows that I have to find six attribute true origins first before I can advance to the origin returnance realm.’

As for obtaining the attribute true origins, Xu Ning didn’t think this was a big challenge.

In a place like State Wansheng, where martial arts resources were abundant, attribute true origins could be obtained through trading.

This was the advantage of living in a top-notch martial arts environment.

Xu Ning walked out of the cave and activated his dao realm power.

Whoosh!

A gust of astral qi flew hundreds of meters away, cutting a giant rock in half, causing it to roll down the mountain.

‘Is this the power of astral qi?’

Xu Ning’s eyes lit up. If he held a dao weapon, his astral qi could be even more powerful. ‘It is said that some powerful mid level dao realm masters can match the power of a dao weapon with their pure astral qi. And high level dao realm masters can even destroy a dao weapon with their astral qi.’

After experiencing the power of astral qi, Xu Ning was satisfied.

For an astral qi master with abundant dao realm power like him, he could use a huge amount of astral qi to execute the violent attack method of “astral qi rain”.

The more he advanced, the advantage of his incomparably strong foundation was displayed.

‘With my current strength, with the help of the Cyan Wolf Blade and the Wind Smoke Gourd, I can even defeat an origin returnance realm master!

Xu Ning had a new understanding of his strength. “Brother is amazing!”

Gray jumped onto Xu Ning’s shoulder.

“The concentration of spiritual energy in State Wansheng is very beneficial to the advancement of your bloodline, don’t waste it.”

Xu Ning said, “After we settle down, we will release Cyan and Xu Hujun from the Demon Beast Scroll and let them enjoy the rich spiritual energy of State Wansheng.”

Xu Ning’s expectation for Gray, Cyan, and Xu Hujun was for them to break through to the dao realm quickly. In this way, they would also become the helpers of the Swallow Heron Sect.

“Okay, Gray, get ready to go.”

Xu Ning said, “Next, we will go to Guanghe Canton to find Senior Brother Cheng Zengtao.”

Guanghe Canton, Liuyan County.

Liuyan County was the core county of Guanghe Canton. The canton governor and other officials of the Imperial Court were all here.

This county city was larger than State Jifeng of the Abyss North.

Because Liu Yan County was a core county, there were many big families with the influence of a canton here. Cheng Zengtao, whom Xu Ning was going to find, was backed by the Cheng family, which was a well-known family in Liuyan County and even Guanghe Canton.

There were many people in his family who held official positions in the Imperial Court and their status was also extremely high.

‘Guanghe Canton, Liuyan County…’

Xu Ning finally arrived with Gray after a wind-beaten journey.

‘Let’s go into the city and find out where the Cheng family is…’

Afterwards, Xu Ning followed the crowd and entered the county city.
