Martial Arts Domination: Start with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique

After this journey, not only had he acquired a divine technique like the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique.

He had also gained a Qinggong for preserving his life!

Even though the crisis had not yet been resolved, a hint of a smile still involuntarily appeared on Qin Zheng's face.

As long as he could accumulate enough Merit, he could quickly improve and escape from this predicament!

It could be said that the dark clouds pressing down on Qin Zheng's head had already torn open a crack, revealing a ray of light!

With such a tremendous gain, Qin Zheng had no interest in observing the prosperity of the west side of Black Goose City.

He walked home with his head down, and half an hour later, he left the bustling west side and entered the slums of the east side of the city.

The residents here were the poor of Black Goose City, living in rows of mud houses; it was rare to see a building made of bricks and tiles.

Naturally, Qin Zheng's house was also in this area.

The alleys were winding, and he soon returned to his own home.

Wang Er had also left when Qin Zheng departed.

Inside the house, there were some simple furniture and the meat and medicinal herbs left by Wang Er on the earthen stove.

Qin Zheng turned around to close the door, then sat down on the bed.

With a thought, his consciousness sunk into his heart, looking at the contents of the Merit Scroll.

[Qin Zheng]

[Lifespan: 70 (17)]

[Martial Arts: Ghost Head Saber Technique (Perfection)]

[Merit: four qian]

[Discovered martial art·Jinchan's Escape, available for refinement, requires three qian of Merit, refine now?]

He had gained one tael seven qian of Merit by cutting off Shi Yan's head.

After improving the Ghost Head Saber Technique to Perfection, a total of one tael three qian was consumed, leaving four qian left.

Qin Zheng's gaze sharpened as he looked at the last line of the scroll.

Refining Qinggong required three qian of Merit, which was three times more than for the Ghost Head Saber Technique, indicating it was of much higher quality.

At that point, Qin Zheng took out the Buddha Beads from his chest.

No one could have imagined that mixed within these beads was a High Monk's Relic!

As he held the beads in his hand, another line of content appeared on the Merit Scroll.

[Discovered item·High Monk's Relic, available for refinement, requires one tael of Merit, refine now?]

[Note: Refinement will yield the martial art Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique (incomplete)]

A wave of warmth surged in Qin Zheng's heart.

However, refining this relic required one tael of Merit, and he currently only had four qian of Merit, which was not enough.

Therefore, at this moment, Qin Zheng faced two choices.

One was to save up this four qian of Merit, waiting to collect more after future executions, to quickly accumulate a full tael to refine the relic.

Or to use the current four qian of Merit to refine the Qinggong, Jinchan's Escape, immediately.

Qin Zheng thought for a few moments, then spoke undoubtedly in his heart, "Refine the martial art Jinchan's Escape!"

Only what is in hand is truly yours.

That old rogue might come after him at any moment; learning Qinggong first would increase his chances of survival!

As he silently murmured, the Merit Scroll changed, and Qin Zheng's Merit reduced from four qian to one qian.

At the same time, a rush of memories suddenly surged into his mind.

A warm current also appeared in his legs, seeping into his muscles and bones.

After a few moments, the transformation ceased, and Qin Zheng had completely assimilated the memories related to this Qinggong.

Qin Zheng stood up and walked back and forth inside the house, feeling a significant increase in strength in his legs, making his movements much lighter.

Then, he activated the Qinggong, using a unique technique to channel his energy, and with a step forward, he instantly moved a great distance.

Qin Zheng's eyes brightened, then he opened the door and directly tried this Qinggong on the long path at his doorstep.

The eastern part of the city was primarily populated by impoverished families, and during the day, few people were at home as most worked in the west of the city.

Moreover, with vacant houses on either side of Qin Zheng's home, he was not worried about being seen practicing martial arts.

After some trials, Qin Zheng discovered that after deploying Qinggong, both his speed and agility were greatly enhanced.

This delighted Qin Zheng.

With this Qinggong skill, coupled with living in the eastern part of the city filled with twisting alleys and earthen houses,

even if Shi Yan came to kill him, he thought he might have a fair chance of escaping by combining the Ghost Head Saber Technique with Qinggong.

Once the trials were over, Qin Zheng returned home and locked the door.

Now he had done everything he could, next, it was a matter of when the old bastard Shi Yan would come for him.

In the meantime, he also needed to continue with his duties as an executioner and quickly accumulate enough merit

and then promptly refine the High Monk's Relic and master the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique!

As Qin Zheng thought about this, a rumbling sound came from his stomach.

He then realized he had not eaten anything for nearly a day.

Seemingly with this realization, a wave of hunger surged through his body, overwhelming him like a tide,

making him feel somewhat weak.

Qin Zheng quickly went to the stove and took out the meat that Wang Er had bought.

There were rice and vegetables, and a chunk of fine pork belly.

Smelling the enticing aroma of the meat, Qin Zheng swallowed his saliva and immediately started to make a fire for cooking.

The water tank was still full, sparing Qin Zheng the need to refill it.

He washed rice for steaming, prepared the vegetables, chopped the meat, and finally started stir-frying.

Qin Zheng was quite skilled in his movements, and soon in front of him was a bowl of white rice and a dish of twice-cooked pork with green peppers.

The scent of the rice and meat tantalized his already ravenous stomach, and he could no longer restrain his hunger.

He immediately picked up his chopsticks and began devouring the food.

As he ate, he felt his stomach furiously working, and waves of warmth spread throughout his body.

Before he had traveled to this era, his predecessor had been struck by a palm, which had already compromised his health.

After the transmigration, he had been struck flying twice by martial artists who had broken through three barriers, pushing his body to its limit.

Now, with the warm meat and rice in his stomach, his body seemed to be replenished and started to recover.

Awhile later, a bowl of rice and a dish of meat had completely entered Qin Zheng's stomach.

He smacked his lips somewhat wistfully, feeling a comforting warmth throughout his body that was indescribably pleasant.

Thump thump thump~

At that moment, there was another knock on the door.

Qin Zheng's expression instantly turned stern as he grabbed the Ghost Head Greatsword.

"Brother Qin, it's me, Wang Er."

At that moment, a familiar voice called out from outside again.

Qin Zheng, his hands gripping the Ghost Head Saber and body tense, went forward to open the door and found the dark-skinned man, Wang Er.

He relaxed, asking, "Big Brother Wang, what brings you here?"

Wang Er twitched his nose, smelling the lingering scent of meat in the air, a smile appearing on his face.

"In the morning, we are scheduled to execute a group of criminals. I came to check on your recovery and to inform you about this."

"But seeing your complexion, you seem to have recovered nicely, so I won't bother you any further and will take my leave now."

Wang Er said with a smile, then turned and left.

Watching him leave, Qin Zheng's eyes were filled with joy.

He was set to execute a group of criminals in the morning, which meant he was about to collect a significant amount of merit!

Mastering the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique was just around the corner!
