Chapter 104: The Sixth Layer of Heaven

  After a while, Zhao Ji's figure emerged from the dense forest, with a faint killing aura on his body. He turned his head to glance in the direction of the mountain stronghold, then left without looking back.

  Interrogating the two bandits, Zhao Ji obtained a lot of useful information. The mountain stronghold was called Lüying Stockade, and the leader was Tie Bixiu (Iron Arm) Xiang Liu. The second-in-command was called Man Niu (Fierce Cow), and there were six small heads under him, with more than 300 bandits.

  The Green Camp is not a major force, just a second-rate martial artist who can't even get on stage, gathering a group of mountain people, and with the sudden rise of bandit forces, they can also bully ordinary civilians.

  Not to mention the Wind Chasers, even some larger bandit forces, the Green Camps can't compare, and can only dominate in a small area near Qiaomu Town.

  Even the Green Camp wouldn't dare provoke many of the powers in Qiaomu Town, such as the Miao Hu Wu Guan.

  From the mouths of two bandits, Zhao Ji learned that the Green Camp had twice been defeated at Zengjiavillage, causing the Great Bandit Chief to be furious beyond measure, but for the time being he was also helpless.

  Ding Dian's big kill on that day destroyed one-third of the Green Camp's strength. Even if Liu was furious, he wouldn't act rashly and hastily seek revenge, throwing himself to his death like an egg hitting a rock.

  For some time now, Xiang Liu has been accumulating strength and recruiting soldiers from outside. Previously, he was worried that if he recruited too many powerful warriors, he would not be able to control them. However, recently, he can no longer afford to worry about this.

  In addition, Zhao Ji also found out that the second master of the Green Camp, Man Niu, had escaped and did not suffer any punishment, still roaming freely.

  As for the enemy meeting, it's a special case of seeing red in the eyes. The green camp has been hated to the extreme, and I have thought about destroying it completely. Now that I've found its old nest, Zhao Ji won't be polite anymore.

  If Zhao didn't go to the Green Camp today, he would definitely come after him with a vengeance once his powers were strong enough under Liu's command. It was better to strike first and gain the upper hand.

  Far away from the Green Camp's territory, Zhao Yi found a very secluded place and hid himself, preparing to meditate and cultivate first.

  Recently, Zhao Ji's internal strength cultivation has approached the peak of the fifth layer of the acquired realm. It won't be long before he can impact the sixth layer of the acquired realm.

  Just now, Zhao Jiudong used the Star-Absorbing Technique to absorb the internal energy of two strong bandits. Although their internal energy cultivation was not high, they were all post-heavenly first layer warriors, but after obtaining all their internal energy, he still gained a lot.

  As soon as the internal force entered his body, Zhao Ji roughly absorbed it and his cultivation immediately reached the peak of the fifth layer of the acquired realm, saving him several months of hard work.

  Cultivation advancement is a joyous matter, but it can't tolerate Zhao's laxity. Those absorbed internal forces, after all, aren't obtained through his own bitter cultivation. When the amount is small, it's still fine, but once it reaches a large scale, he'll inevitably go crazy.

  So, at the first opportunity, Zhao Ji found a quiet place and used Ren Wo Xing Bu Quan Xi Xing's method to absorb the internal force, then practiced Yi Jin Jing twice in a row. In short, he had to make sure to convert those internal forces into his own use, doing his best to avoid any future troubles.

  After a series of movements, Zhao Ji felt that after using the Star Absorbing Technique, his somewhat inconvenient body seemed to have become lighter all at once.

  "Perhaps, try the sixth floor of the building tomorrow."

  His inner strength had reached the peak of the fifth layer of acquired realm, which was enough to challenge the sixth layer of acquired realm. Zhao Ji was ready to give it a try.

  Kneeling on the ground, Zhao Ji closed his eyes and cultivated his skills, running the Divine Light Sutra, his internal energy flowing like a gentle stream, circulating through his meridians, washing away impurities from his body.

  The nine cycles of the twelve regular meridians have been completed, and Zhao Ji leads the internal force into the eight extraordinary meridians, starting to open up the meridians and improve his cultivation.

  After closing his eyes for a long time, more than an hour had passed before Zhao Ji finally reopened them, and the repressed light in his eyes flashed by.

  At this moment, Zhao Ji's breath suddenly fluctuated, a terrifying aura flowed around his body, and a small whirlpool formed in the air.

  Various extraordinary phenomena indicate that this promotion has been successful, and for a time, Zhao Ji was unable to control his own enhanced inner strength, resulting in these numerous manifestations.

  "His cultivation had increased by another level, and the sixth layer of acquired realm was indeed much more powerful than the fifth layer."

  With a clear sense of that powerful feeling, Zhao Ji's mouth corners slightly hooked up with a hint of a smile, looking like he was in a pretty good mood.

  His cultivation had improved by one level, and Zhao Ji's confidence in going to find trouble with the Green Camp grew significantly. With his current strength, taking on an entire force alone might not be impossible after all.

  After breaking through, Zhao Ji did not go to the place where the Green Camp was located at the first time, but instead familiarized himself with his own growing internal force until nightfall, and then went to the Green Camp under the cover of darkness.

  Back to the foot of that mountain, find a relatively flat rock wall observed during the day. Zhao Ji measured the length of the steepest section of the rock wall and thought it might be worth trying.

  With a heavy stomp of his right foot on the ground, Zhao Ji's body suddenly shot up with the force, like a rocket soaring into the sky, and his body rose into the air, jumping over a dozen feet high.

  With one jump, when the strength was exhausted and the body was about to fall back, Zhao Ji's left foot lightly touched the heel of his right foot, and his body rose again by a zhang at an impossible moment.

  Zhao Ji's move was the most exquisite one in Tuiyun Zhong, and if his internal strength wasn't cultivated enough, it would be impossible to use this move.

  Only after Zhao Ji's cultivation broke through to the fifth layer of the acquired realm, becoming a second-rate martial artist, could he perform this most exquisite move. However, with the foundation of his internal energy at the fifth layer of the acquired realm, Zhao Ji could only perform that exquisite move once and did not have the ability to continuously perform it for the second time.

  Now, the situation is different. After reaching the sixth layer of internal power, Zhao Ji's skillful display allowed him to use that exquisite move three times in a row before exhausting his strength.

  After three times, Zhao Ji was already more than 15 meters away from the ground. At this point, the mountain wall was no longer so steep and smooth, and there were finally places where he could land and take a break.

  The toe of his left foot touched a slight recess in the mountain wall, rebounded slightly, restored some internal force, and Zhao Ji's body rose again, quickly climbing upwards.

  Having exhausted all means, Zhao Ji finally climbed up the mountain from the back. When both feet stood on the top of the mountain peak, a slight feeling of fatigue floated to his mind.

  He even felt a bit mentally exhausted, and in terms of internal energy, he had been depleted for a long time. After reaching the top, Zhao Ji did not take action immediately, but instead found a slightly hidden place to recover his internal energy.
