Chapter 84: Transformation of Strength
Suddenly, a low dragon roar that was suppressed was heard in the courtyard, and then Qin Ziling saw the shadow of a green dragon swooping down, turning into a huge dragon claw and slamming the ground.
"Crack, crack, crack!" Cracks spread in all directions like tree roots, with the giant claw as the center.
"Boom!" The rockery collapsed with a loud bang, and the cracks continued to spread, stopping only when they were about to reach the pavilion.
When the smoke and dust cleared, Qin Ziling saw Xiao Qing crouching on the ground, with one hand in a clawed position on the ground and the other hand in a clawed position behind his hip.
"Hiss!" Qin Ziling couldn't help but take a deep breath as he looked at the mess on the ground and then at Xiao Qing whose body was outlined with seductive curves by the tight-fitting clothes.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it, that such a beautiful woman with such an attractive figure could almost destroy the entire courtyard with just one claw.
"I'm sorry, Brother Qin. I couldn't control my strength just now because I was trying to break through!" Xiao Qing stood up, tapped the ground lightly with his toes, and flew into the air like a dragon. In a blink of an eye, he landed lightly in front of Qin Ziling. Seeing that his hair and clothes were covered with dust and he looked very embarrassed, she couldn't help but say with a trace of shame on her face.
"You mean you were able to control the strength just now? If you didn't, would I be unable to protect this pavilion?" Qin Ziling stared at Xiao Qing as if he were a monster when he heard that.
"Not only this pavilion, but also the wall behind you and other things cannot be protected!" Xiao Qing replied.
"Hiss!" Qin Ziling looked back at the wall a few meters behind him, and couldn't help but take a deep breath again, then asked: "What realm are you in now?"
"Transformation!" Xiao Qing replied, and she stretched out her slender jade hand to grab in the air in front of her. Suddenly, the airflow in front of her hand turned rapidly, forming a phantom of a dragon claw, which grabbed the rockery stone weighing at least seventy or eighty kilograms in the air. With another pinch, the rockery stone instantly turned into gravel and dust and scattered on the ground.
Looking at this scene, Qin Ziling subconsciously closed his legs.
What a fierce woman!
"Brother Qin, what do you think?" Xiao Qing looked at Qin Ziling with bright eyes.
Qin Ziling swallowed his saliva and nodded calmly, "Very good, very powerful! But weren't you only at the Yun Jin level before? How did you break through to the Hua Jin level all of a sudden?"
"Of course, this is all thanks to Brother Qin's young python."
"Ahem, it's the young python I gave you as a gift." Qin Ziling corrected hurriedly.
Xiao Qing looked at Qin Ziling strangely and continued, "The vitality and wood energy of this young python are very pure, and after I dispersed my strength, I actually never gave up on my cultivation.
Apart from business matters, he practiced diligently during the rest of his time, collecting various meat and medicinal herbs through channels that could replenish vitality and blood, trying to gather his strength again.
But I have never been successful. However, because of this, the purity and vigor of my blood and energy has reached an astonishing level.
With the help of my previous experience in exercising my internal energy, I even trained my arms and the lower half of my legs, that is, my calves, to the level of iron skin.
Therefore, even though I have fallen to the level of a martial artist, I have instead laid a more solid foundation, and my real strength is in no way inferior to that of a martial artist with concentrated energy.
Before my strength dissipated seven years ago, I was actually only one step away from breaking through to the level of Hua Jin.
Now, with the help of Brother Qin's young python, I have finally made great progress, and not only have I succeeded in condensing my energy, but I have also made a breakthrough to the transformation level in one go. Moreover, because this breakthrough is based on a more solid foundation of qi and blood, I am confident that I will be able to break through the transformation level and enter the bone refining level in the future."
As he spoke, Xiao Qing exuded an extremely strong belief.
"No wonder you were able to break through to the Yun Jin realm at the age of sixteen. In addition to your extraordinary talent and family training, your tenacity and perseverance after failure, as well as your strong belief, are also the key." Qin Ziling looked at Xiao Qing and couldn't help but sigh.
He exudes a sense of vicissitudes and insight into the world that is completely inconsistent with his appearance and age.
Looking at Qin Ziling, who suddenly had a different temperament, Xiao Qing's eyes were dazed for a moment, a very strange feeling surged in her heart, and a blush flew across her pretty face.
"Oh my God, Miss, you, you..." At this moment, Xia Yan rushed in after hearing the noise. Seeing the cracks in the courtyard and a big claw mark, she was completely stunned .
"Yes, Xia Yan, I have made a breakthrough, and it is the Hua Jin realm!" Xiao Qing looked at Xia Yan, unable to hide his inner excitement, and said.
"Hua Jin! Hua Jin!" Xia Yan was so excited that she didn't know what to say. After a while, she suddenly turned to Qin Ziling, bent her knees, and knelt down.
"Miss Xia Yan, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Qin Ziling quickly reached out to help Xia Yan.
"Mr. Qin, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, our young lady..." Xia Yan said with tears in her eyes.
"There's no need to be like this. We are all friends and we should help each other." Qin Ziling interrupted.
After that, Qin Ziling didn't wait for Xia Yan to speak again. His face straightened and he changed the subject: "Qing'er, now that you have become a Huajin martial artist, can you tell me about your recent situation ?"
"Yeah." Xiao Qing nodded, and then roughly explained the current struggle between various forces in Fangqiao City, the situation of the Xiao family, and the fact that the Xiao family wanted to force her to choose between Xu Yuanwu and Bai Xiuqi.
After Xiao Qing finished speaking, Qin Ziling fell into deep thought.
He is currently just a small figure and is isolated from the news. After listening to Xiao Qing's words, he realized that the situation in Fangqiao City is much more complicated than he imagined, and is also affected by the political changes in Xiyun Province.
Once there is a drastic change in the political situation in Xiyun Province that affects Fangqiao City, not to mention the second- and third-rate forces like Dean Hantie who are maneuvering between various forces and need to take sides, even the local prominent families like the Xiao family will have to make adequate preparations in advance, otherwise, the only fate waiting for them is surrender or being suppressed and destroyed.
"What are you going to do next?" Qin Ziling asked after a long time.
At this time, Xiao Qing had completely calmed down. Hearing this, he stared at Qin Ziling and asked instead of answering, "Brother Qin, what do you think?"
"What I mean is, you'd better continue to be the useless Miss Xiao! Of course, you must let the real core leaders of the family know that you have broken through to become a Huajin martial artist. Only in this way can you get the maximum voice and cultivation resources." Qin Ziling said in a deep voice.
"In this way, won't Miss continue to be belittled and looked down upon?" Xia Yan frowned.
"A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind! Being looked down upon is countless times better than being plotted against and assassinated." Qin Ziling said.
