Chapter 149: Chapter 0149 Going Madly Strong_1
Inside the office building of the Special Action Team in Capital City.
Zhao Dawei sat in his office, his face etched with frustration. He had been waiting for many days, but Hacker Rabbit King had not contacted him. Moreover, even when he tried to reach out, there was no response at all.
Could it be that Rabbit King stood me up? Or did something happen to him?
Zhao Dawei’s brow furrowed deeply.
He had a very burdensome task: to obtain the latest research results on America’s genetically enhanced humans. He absolutely needed Hacker Rabbit King’s help. Otherwise, they wouldn’t even be able to understand the defense system of the American biotech base, let alone find a way to infiltrate it. They couldn’t even devise a plan.
"Captain, this is bad..." Qian Bing rushed in, his face a mask of fury. "The Iron Sword Sect sent Gu Yang to get revenge on Zhang Bin! Zhang Bin is in danger!"
The Special Action Team was naturally the best-informed group; they knew the moment Gu Yang and his men boarded their plane. Of course, this was also because Gu Yang was a person of interest who required close monitoring. Such a formidable master was immune to bullets. They had to watch him constantly to prevent him from doing anything that might endanger the country.
"What audacity."
A look of rage appeared on Zhao Dawei’s face as a chilling, murderous aura burst from him. However, he quickly calmed down, took out his phone, and called Zhang Bin, intending to warn him to hide and avoid a confrontation at all costs. After all, he knew that although Zhang Bin was a genius, at only twenty years old, he stood no chance against Gu Yang, a man who had been cultivating for over fifty years.
But Zhang Bin’s phone was unreachable.
He then called Ma Rufei, telling him to go to Zhang Bin’s house immediately and tell him to hide.
Ma Rufei was nearly scared to death. Heavens, a cultivator at the peak of the Rushing Pulse Realm was coming for revenge! How could Zhang Bin possibly stand a chance?
Thus, he went straight to Zhang Bin’s house, but he was obviously unable to find him. He only learned that Zhang Bin had gone into the mountains to cultivate. Xiao Fang had told him that if Zhang Bin’s phone was unreachable, it meant he was in the middle of cultivating.
This is a huge problem. What if the enemy arrives just as my Master is leaving Great Green Mountain? That would be a catastrophe! Ma Rufei thought frantically before quickly reporting the situation to Zhao Dawei.
"I’ll be right there."
Zhao Dawei grew anxious as well. He gathered a group of his subordinates and flew towards Zhang Bin’s home in a helicopter.
Naturally, after Xiao Fang heard from Ma Rufei that a powerful master was coming for revenge, she nearly died from anxiety and immediately called Liu Ruolan. Soon, Liu Ruolan, Liu Ruomei, and Tian Bingbing had all arrived. With Ma Rufei, they began to discuss countermeasures in detail.
"I’ll go into Great Green Mountain and find him," Liu Ruomei stated decisively. She simply grabbed some food and water and, with Big Fatty as her guide, set off into the mountains. Now that she had opened two meridians, she could be considered a master in her own right and had no fear of the wild beasts in Great Green Mountain.
About two hours after Liu Ruomei left, Tian Bingbing couldn’t stay put any longer. She had Second Fatty lead the way and also ventured into the vast mountains. Great Green Mountain was so immense that it would be very difficult for Liu Ruomei to find Zhang Bin alone. An extra person searching meant a greater chance of success.
Afterward, Xiao Fang, Liu Ruolan, and Ma Rufei took Da Huang, Big Black, and Second Black to the edge of Great Green Mountain, positioning themselves to wait on the path Zhang Bin was certain to take on his way back. This way, they could intercept him.
Zhang Bin was unaware that he had stirred so many people into action. He was sitting cross-legged in his Cave Mansion, cultivating, having instructed Tutu to block all calls.
He first consumed a True Essence Pill, then drank a bellyful of Spiritual Water before he began earnestly practicing the Qingmu Longevity Technique.
The True Essence Pill was indeed extraordinary. Once ingested, it transformed into a torrent of medicinal power, directly converting Spiritual Energy into True Qi that was rapidly absorbed and refined by Zhang Bin before being gathered into his Dantian. If it were an ordinary cultivator without a large amount of Spiritual Water, even with a True Essence Pill, they wouldn’t become much stronger; they could only absorb the Spiritual Energy contained within the Elixir itself. But Zhang Bin had Spiritual Water, which made his cultivation exceptionally effective.
The amount of True Qi in his Dantian was increasing at a visible rate.
Once the Elixir was fully refined, the True Qi in his Dantian was full, and the pressure was sufficient. He immediately began forcing open his sixteenth meridian.
Previously, he had cleared the twelve main meridians. After that, he began working on the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, successfully opening the Governing Vessel, Conception Vessel, and Rushing Pulse. Now, he was targeting the Yang Weaving Vessel.
The Yang Weaving Vessel originates where all Yang meridians converge. It begins at the Jinmen acupoint of the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Channel, one cun below the lateral malleolus. From there, it travels to the Yangjiao acupoint of the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Channel, seven cun above the outer ankle. It then intersects with the Hand-Taiyang Small Intestine Channel, the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Channel, and the Yang Jumping Meridian at the Naoshu acupoint, located near the scapula. Next, it meets the Hand-Shaoyang Sanjiao Channel and the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Channel at the Tianliao acupoint in the supraclavicular fossa, as well as the Jianjing acupoint in the depression of the shoulder. From Jianjing, it ascends the head, meeting the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Channel at the Yangbai acupoint, one cun above the eyebrow. It continues upward from Yangbai, passing over the eye and into the hairline at the Benshen and Linqi acupoints. From Linqi, it ascends through the Zhengying acupoint, travels beneath the occipital bone to the Naokong acupoint, then descends to the Fengchi acupoint behind the ear. Finally, it meets the Governing Vessel at the Fengfu and Yamen acupoints on the back of the neck.
Zhang Bin’s Dantian was currently brimming with exceptionally rich True Qi. Furthermore, the medicinal power of the True Essence Pill had not yet been fully refined, feeding a continuous stream of True Qi into his Dantian, so the process of opening the meridian progressed with unstoppable momentum.
HSSS... With a continuous hissing sound, one acupoint after another and every single blockage was cleared.
BOOM...
When this meridian was completely unblocked, a sound like rolling thunder echoed within Zhang Bin’s Dantian.
His Dantian immediately underwent a miraculous change, doubling in size in an instant. What was once like a large lake was now the size of two. The Dantian was also a mysterious thing. It wasn’t spherical but rather a flat, circular space. Within this space, it was completely filled with True Qi. Once the Dantian expanded, the True Qi naturally became sparser.
However, Zhang Bin also felt that he had become much more powerful. His body was filled with energy, as if he could defeat any foe, and even his spiritual power had increased by a large margin. His mind felt much clearer as well.
He did not stop cultivating. He continued to frantically refine the medicinal power, drink Spiritual Water, and rapidly convert Spiritual Energy into True Qi. The True Qi in his Dantian began to increase rapidly again.
When the medicinal power was completely refined, he consumed another Elixir pill and more Spiritual Water, continuing his frenzied cultivation.
The enemy wanted to cripple him. How could he possibly hide?
If he hid, what would happen to his parents and sister? What about his company? And what about his women?
He had no retreat. His only choice was to rapidly raise his Cultivation Level and fight with his back against the wall
