Martial Arts: My Talent Has No Limits

Chapter 33 The One Who Controls All Poisons, Possessing an Immaculate Body

The next day.

The county town was shaken.

Overnight, the Chai Gang was wiped out, and the direct descendants of the newly established Li family were also completely wiped out, almost to the point of being exterminated.

It was still dark.

The county government's patrol and inspection department then conducted a search within the inner city.

Surprisingly, the two Third-Level Refinement cultivators from the Demon Suppression Division, who belonged to the Li family, did not investigate the murderer in their fury, but instead fought each other for the sake of their family's assets, completely breaking off all pretense of civility.

East Wing of the Qin Mansion.

Qin Jiu listened to the report from the visitor, seemingly lost in thought.

"In addition, it is said that the leader of the fishing gang led the remaining gang members and hurriedly left the county town before dawn."

"Now everyone in the city is living in fear."

"The Han family just sent some people. They want to invite you to their residence, seemingly hoping to form an alliance with the Qin family. In addition, the Han family also invited the Canghai Martial Arts School, the deputy leader of the Cao Gang, and people from the Changfeng Escort Agency. What do you think..."

"Let Xuanzhou handle this."

Qin Jiu thought for a moment, then sent a servant to inform Qin Xuanzhou.

He did not intend to go to the Han family in person.

Firstly, he was well aware of what had happened last night. The forces in the inner city that could cause trouble for the Qin family had been temporarily eliminated. As for the Cao Gang and Canghai Martial Arts School, they were likely involved in a scheme with the people behind the demons that had affected the Qin family. He needed to observe the situation further.

Secondly, the Qin family's most pressing task is to prepare to leave this place.

Stay away from disputes and conflicts.

All that's needed to know about things within the city is good news.

"However, the opportunity for the Qin family to leave depends on the outcome of the county magistrate's actions."

"And now, I am striving to reach the third level of cultivation, and even internal strength, before leaving Songshan County. Only by becoming strong myself is the most important thing. After all, if I can destroy the Li family of the Chai Gang today, other strong people can come to destroy my Qin family tomorrow."

"From now on, let others handle all the trivial matters."

"And the Qin family's cultivation secrets—keeping them will only cause trouble eventually; we need to find an opportunity to send out a few copies..."

Qin Jiu's eyes were deep.

While pondering.

They walked out of the east wing and went straight to the animal park.

"Master."

A burly waiter saw Qin Jiu enter and hurriedly ran over to greet him.

This person's name is Xu Zheng.

He was slapped by Qin Xiong in the past for exposing him.

Qin Jiu had a fairly good impression of him, but after a brief look, surprise appeared on his face. He asked, "So you've successfully passed the test? Now that you've become a First-Level Martial Artist, why aren't you reporting to the guard?"

"Your subordinate is deeply grateful for the kindness and favor shown by Commander Xuanzhou."

"Now that I'm the head of the animal park, my salary has increased, which is why I was able to reach the first level."

As Xu Zheng spoke, a simple smile appeared on his face. He said, "Furthermore, I was selected from a menial job at Zuixianju to work at the Hundred Beasts Garden. It has been almost ten years now, and I am used to dealing with all kinds of wild beasts. If I were to leave this place, I would feel uncomfortable."

"yes."

Qin Jiu nodded slightly and said as they walked, "Then tell me about the current situation at the Hundred Beasts Garden."

"Yes."

"Although this garden no longer supplies Zuixianlou, the county is currently under lockdown, and the prices of all kinds of coarse grains, fodder, and even meat are skyrocketing. Meanwhile, the spirit beasts we raise have a large appetite. With this imbalance, I'm afraid the supply will be cut off in less than a month."

Xu Zheng looked worried and added, "The Imperial Household Department stopped supplying the herbal pills that transform wild beasts half a month ago, saying that the Pharmacy had blocked certain precious medicines, resulting in a lack of main ingredients for refining them."

"I know that."

Qin Jiu nodded and said, "Let's just leave the Hundred Beasts Garden as it is for now."

He came here this time.

That means they have to take action against the spirit beast.

Therefore, he wasn't very concerned about what Xu Zheng said. It was uncertain whether there would still be any spirit beasts here a month later. After all, in addition to finding suitable talents, he also needed to borrow these spirit beasts to refine blood essence, which would consume a lot of resources.

Then half an hour later.

He first followed Xu Zheng to tour all the different areas of the Beast Park.

After becoming familiar with the characteristics of various spirit beasts.

He then pondered the matter of talent.

"In martial arts, innate talent is paramount. The subtle enhancement brought by the snake waist and python tendons is almost visible to the naked eye. For now, I should start by improving my talent in terms of physical constitution. As for other categories, if there are any of superior quality, I can prioritize imprinting them."

Thinking of this.

Qin Jiu immediately ordered Xu Zheng to bring the men.

They captured a spirit beast that resembled a tiger or wolf.

"Master, would you like to perform the surgery yourself?"

In front of the stone trough where spirit beasts are slaughtered.

When Xu Zheng saw Qin Jiu pick up the boning knife from the stone platform, his expression changed instantly. He said, "Such a crude task can be left to us workers. Your status is far too esteemed..."

"Alright."

Qin Jiu interrupted him, frowning as he said, "From now on, I will be in charge of slaughtering all the spirit beasts here. Without my order, none of you may transgress this rule, or you will be severely punished."

"Also, go to the inner palace and call those cooks over."

"Remember to have them bring their stove and cookware."

"Yes."

Xu Zheng dared not say another word.

They immediately and hastily left the animal park.

"You guys get ready."

At this time.

Qin Jiu gave another instruction to the other men, and then plunged the boning knife in his hand straight into the neck of the spirit beast.

"roar!"

The beast's roar sounded like a tiger's howl.

The animal, nearly the size of a calf, struggled frantically.

But it soon died out.

Meanwhile.

The crimson seal within Qin Jiu's mind.

Then a dark, shadowy illustration appeared.

[Bloodfang Wolf (Tier 1)]

[Talent: Tiger and Wolf Force (Green)]

[Note: Beasts possess courage and ferocity, and their power is awe-inspiring.]

[Talent Status: Can be Imprinted]

[Imprint Requirements: 3 ounces of tiger bone]

"Green grade? Tiger and wolf aura... Judging from the description, it should be a talent related to aura."

Qin Jiu frowned slightly.

The grades of talents recorded by the Crimson Seal represent the potential of the talent. Currently, they are in the following order: blue (snake waist and python tendons), purple (withered wood reborn), and gold (illuminating the darkness). He doesn't know what grades are above that, but green is a grade lower than blue.

And the green goes downwards.

There's also a white one.

Although I currently have five talent slots available, I won't even consider talents below the purple rank unless they are exceptional.

Qin Jiu shook his head slightly.

Then he instructed his staff to deal with the spirit beast.

He was simultaneously consuming pills to refine his qi and blood while practicing the Taiyin Henglian breathing technique to strengthen his bones.

......

In the following days.

The medicinal cuisine made from freshly killed spirit beasts is prepared on the spot.

Qin Jiu devoted himself entirely to refining his Qi and blood.

Because the nourishment from the blood and qi brought by the spirit beast meat is too great, even though the blood essence was not used when the spirit beast was slaughtered, it was still a bit too much for it. The only way to do this was to use the blood essence to refine it.

And the result of doing so.

It was the immense Yin energy within his body.

It is becoming increasingly refined.

This day.

Qin Jiu had his servant bring over a spirit beast, which he then casually slaughtered. As usual, he glanced at the Crimson Seal.

His eyes lit up instantly.
