Zhang Ye's fighting spirit was stronger than ever before.

  Every day, apart from working in the medicine fields, was endless cultivation. Currently, his technique was a modified version of the Five-Piece Technique.

  In theory, the Five-Element Fist can send practitioners into the Three Layers of Separation. Currently, it's still far from that. So the Five-Element Fist can make his cultivation bold and precise.

  He's gone completely mad! He didn't dare cultivate like this before, but now he dares to.

  Changed the frequency of meditation to three times a day.

  Each time, passionately impacting the meridians, tormenting oneself.

  Each time, his meridians were tormented by himself to the point of being hot and numb, with no part of his body not feeling uncomfortable. Zhang Ye was almost on the verge of "running fire", advancing recklessly without hesitation.

  Although Zi Yi was worried, she never mentioned it directly. She liked Zhang Ye in this state, ever since he grasped the Tai Xuan Divine Method, everything Zhang Ye did had a "ten steps to kill one person" aura to it.

  In just a short month, miraculously, Zhang Ye broke through to the fourth layer of the Foundation Building stage. The struggles and dangers he faced during this period were unknown to anyone except for Zhang Ye himself and Zi Yi.

  Kill

  Outside the Tai Xuan mountain range, a cold light flashed in the air, and an unparalleled killing intent appeared instantly. The wind and snow fluttered, and the earth seemed to be peeled off like skin.

  Rumble rumble rumble——

  A mighty sword intent, killed its way out three miles before stopping.

  Plop——

  Zhang Ye executed another Ten Steps One Kill, and then collapsed to the ground in exhaustion.

  It's still not possible, with current cultivation at the fourth layer of foundation building, can't fully exert the power of this divine ability.

  This is too fierce, better than last time, but still in the initial stage of starting, I feel dizzy and suddenly drained.

  Zhang lay in the snow, panting heavily.

  Nei Men Zheng Shi Yuan

  In the evening, a faint cry of a little girl could be heard. Abu, who liked to extort and blackmail, hung his head in tears, not daring to look up.

  Xu Ying, who was standing beside him, also didn't dare to interrupt.

  "You're so young and yet so corrupt, you know how many complaints have been filed against you. You've taken advantage of your position to embezzle a lot of Yuan Dan."

  A woman with a stern expression and a golden hairpin on her head is scolding Abu. This elegant-looking woman is a true disciple, one of the four giants, and the precious apprentice of Wang Siqi, the gatekeeper elder, Tang Tianlu.

  "Hmph, if I hadn't arrived just in time to see you like this, who knows how many people would have been deceived by you? Come clean and confess - exactly how much dan medicine did you extort?"

  Abu was still crying, scared stiff. Finally, a true disciple with the power of life and death had found him.

  Next to her, Xu Ying said in a low voice: "Tianlu Shizhi, Abu is still young, and actually she's mainly naughty. To be honest, it can't even be considered as breaking the rules of the sect. Many brothers and sisters are amused by her and deliberately make fun of her."

  Tang Tianluo rebuked, "You also don't talk about emotions. Being young is no excuse. If you really broke the sect's rules, would I be speaking so kindly? You should have been executed long ago!"

  "You say kill and then kill, who do you think you are?"

  Zhang Ye's voice came when the person had not arrived, a huge fist flew over.

  "Not good!"

  Tang Tianluo said that a true disciple had arrived, and seeing the fist technique was so swift and fierce, she directly rose to high altitude.

  Mahayana Palm

  Zhang Ye's speed was not much slower than hers, and she chased after her into the air. Tian Luo's hands moved, and Tang Tianluo was surrounded by a dense array of palm shadows.

  "A minor skill!"

  Tang Tianluo let out a stern cry, and a purple glow spread out from beside her.

  Clap Clap Clap Clap——

  The palm curtain of the Great Heavenly Net and the purple glow collided, disappearing without a trace. The shockwave generated by the collision of true energy was like a firework exploding in mid-air, bursting with colorful splendor.

  Zhang Ye's heart skipped a beat, able to directly break the Great Heavenly Net Hand Technique, his strength was definitely above his own.

  He had just heard someone brazenly tell Abu to "kill", and immediately his anger was full, without even seeing the person, he threw a punch first. Now it's clear that this is a true disciple of the sect. Zhang Ye felt that something was off.

  Both parties stopped in their tracks. Tang Tianlao watched from mid-air, and upon taking a look, it turned out to be an inner sect disciple who was fiercely attacking him? He almost got so angry that he fainted.

  "You're so full you don't know what to do with yourself, dare to hit me?"

  Xu Ying only then saw clearly that it was Zhang Ye, and was so frightened that her face turned pale. She walked to the center and knelt down, saying: "Tianlu Shijie, please calm your anger, Zhang Ye is a straightforward person, not intentionally offending you."

  "Are you Zhang Ye?" Tang Tianleng's cold eyes immediately showed a hint of curiosity.

  "Uh... That's me." Zhang Ye said somewhat awkwardly.

  "A junior disciple of the inner sect, yet your cultivation is so overbearing. No wonder there are many rumors about you." Tang Tianlai said in surprise, "Huh, isn't it said that your eyes are as big as bronze bells and your waist is as thick as a cow's?"

  "Nothing much to say." Zhang Ye also didn't have anything good to say.

  Taking a few more glances at Zhang Ye, Tang Tianlao couldn't help but feel curious, but she had to put on an act and scolded: "Speak quickly, have you gone mad? How dare you launch a sneak attack on me. What explanation do you have?"

  The current Zhang Ye is a strong man who almost killed Shi Tianyun, the true disciple of the sect. With confidence and composure, he said, "This is a misunderstanding. Abu is just a child, when I left the mountain, she gave me all her savings, four聚元丹. I will always remember this. When I came in, I heard someone yelling at her to be executed, so Zhang Ye misunderstood. Anyway, Master Sister's cultivation is deep, I couldn't hurt you. Please don't mind."

  "What you said is easy to say, but can it be settled like this? Even if Abu is to be executed, it's within my authority. When did it become your turn to get angry?" Tang Tianyao said.

  "Then you try it!" Zhang Ye shouted again in anger.

  This not only made Tang Tianlua roar with some dizziness, but also scared Xu Ying and Abu to death.

  "How dare you yell at me?" Tang Tianlai's face turned iron-blue with rage.

  Zhang Ye didn't know what was wrong either, so he could only continue to lower his head and act cute.

  "Well, if you don't say anything, I'll take it that you're admitting your mistake." Tang Tianluo was really embarrassed and tried to find a way out for himself.

  "......" Zhang Ye still didn't have anything good to say.

  "Hmph! Even if you admit your mistake now, I will still report your evil deeds to the Elder's Hall." Tang Tianyue flew away and disappeared.

  Zhang Ye didn't mind either.

  "Night Master, you've come to see Abu too. Abu misses you so much." Abu was delighted now.

  Suddenly

  Shi Yuan Dan threw a small handful of coins into Xiao Yao's hands and Zhang Ye laughed saying: "You're just trying to extort me, aren't you?"

  Abu felt a little guilty and didn't dare accept it, but it seemed to be the largest sum of money she had ever seen. Her small face turned bright red.

  "Take it, Night Master gave it to you and that's the end of it. However, now that Big Sister is not here, Abu, you should also be more restrained, if we cause trouble, we can't afford to take responsibility." Xun Ying reached out and patted her head.

  "Abu has taken note." She was so excited that she received the dan medicine and ran to hide the treasure.

  Xu Ying walked over and grasped Zhang Ye's hand, gazing at him for a long time before saying: "You've become much more mature on this trip back, and you have a stronger presence. With the air of wind and frost about you, you look even better."

  Zhang Ye and Xu Ying exchanged a few pleasantries, then took out two jade vases and handed over 100 pellets of Gathering Origin Dan to Xu Ying.

  "What's going on... Why so many!" Xǔ Yíng was startled.
