High Martial Arts: I Travel Through Heaven and Earth Through Dreams

Chapter 61 Breakthrough to the 4th Rank True Essence Realm, Is There a Problem with the Spiritual En

The original owner's name was Zhang Qi, the only son of Zhang Lie, who was the General of the North who guarded the northern border of the Qi Kingdom.

Although he was not born with the talent to become a demon tamer and could not control the supernatural.

However, thanks to his father's protection, he lived a life of luxury and comfort.

Unfortunately, the good times are not long.

Not long ago, the original owner's father, Zhang Lie, was ordered to be besieged by the Qi State court on the heinous crime of "colluding with the treacherous and plotting rebellion".

In that battle, the Qi Kingdom court dispatched more than a dozen Earth-rank Ghost Masters to besiege the General's Mansion.

Even though Zhang Lie himself is a powerful Earth-rank peak Ghost Master with extraordinary strength, he also has three thousand loyal personal guards under his command.

However, faced with an overwhelming numerical advantage, even two fists cannot defeat four hands.

In the end, Zhang Lie died from exhaustion, and the entire general's mansion was slaughtered.

The original owner, Zhang Qi, only managed to escape death thanks to a secret tunnel that had been dug long ago inside the general's mansion.

But how could the original owner, an ordinary person with no cultivation, escape the court's pursuit?

The hidden tunnel was soon discovered.

The imperial court immediately dispatched the pursuit team led by a Xuan-rank Ghost Master to hunt down the original owner.

As the saying goes, "cut the weeds and eliminate the roots," the imperial court absolutely could not tolerate the only bloodline descendant of the General of the North living in the world.

And so, the original owner was hunted down for a full half month.

In the end, he was exhausted and died on this desolate plain.

After that, it was Lin Hanzhou's time travel that happened.

Well, based on the original owner's understanding of his father, Zhang Lie was loyal to the emperor and loved his country, spending his entire life fighting against the strange forces in the north.

It is absolutely impossible for him to do something like colluding with the supernatural.

The so-called crime was nothing more than a high-sounding excuse that the imperial court randomly picked out.

The real reason is probably that someone doesn't want to see Zhang Lie, this general with outstanding military achievements, break through to the Heavenly Rank Ghost Master.

Those whose achievements overshadow their masters are often discarded like dogs after the rabbit is killed.

This has been a standard practice in the politics of emperors since ancient times.

Originally, Lin Hanzhou did not intend to pay attention to this cause and effect.

After all, he had just arrived in this world and didn't know much about it, so he couldn't be too reckless.

It's not too late to think about this later when we've improved our strength.

But now, they've really taken advantage of us.

He had no choice but to act ahead of time; he couldn't very well be chased by a few second-tier players, could he?

Lin Hanzhou remained silent, but simply raised his right hand slightly.

Under the terrified gazes of the four demon tamers opposite them.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Four muffled explosions rang out almost simultaneously.

Their bodies, like balloons filled with air, suddenly exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

With Lin Hanzhou's current peak third-tier cultivation, the highest level of these few he could kill was only the second-tier level Little Karami.

That's just how it is; it's something that can be done with a simple gesture.

It is worth mentioning that.

Just as the bodies of those four people exploded into a bloody mist.

Within each of them, a ball of pure black mist, the size of an egg, suddenly burst forth.

The four wisps of black mist, upon seeing Lin Hanzhou, seemed to have encountered some great terror, emitting piercing shrieks.

Immediately, they transformed into four black streaks of light and fled in four different directions.

"Trying to leave?"

A cold smile curled at the corner of Lin Hanzhou's mouth.

He gently reached out and grasped at the void, and the four wisps of black mist instantly solidified.

Immediately afterwards, an irresistible and terrifying suction force came.

They flew back uncontrollably and were eventually caught firmly in Lin Hanzhou's hands.

"Is this thing the strange thing about this world?"

Lin Hanzhou muttered to himself, observing with great interest the four wisps of black mist struggling and twisting in his palm.

"This thing is incredibly resilient; it's quite interesting."

You should know that he only made a casual strike just now.

However, the power contained within is absolutely enough to instantly kill any martial artist with second-tier cultivation.

The four demon tamers who turned into blood mist on the spot are the best example.

However, these four strange shapes did not seem to suffer any substantial damage after taking his attack.

This surprised him greatly.

Unfortunately, after examining them, Lin Hanzhou couldn't find anything particularly special about them.

Ultimately, he abandoned the research and chose the simplest and most effective treatment.

With a thought, a wisp of Great Sun True Fire, filled with scorching heat, rose from his palm.

"Sizzle sizzle—!"

The four wisps of black mist emitted an extremely shrill and ear-piercing shriek the moment they came into contact with the Great Sun True Fire.

Their bodies twisted and deformed, but that did not change the fact that they were being dissolved.

Ultimately, they were physically exorcised by Lin Hanzhou, vanishing without a trace.

Lin Hanzhou definitely couldn't just let them go like that.

Despite their strange appearance, in his hands they were merely a few harmless wisps of black mist.

In reality, this thing is very insidious.

According to the original owner Zhang Qi's memory, any second-level monster could cause thousands or even tens of thousands of casualties.

Even more extreme, some strange beings with unique abilities can wipe out an entire town with a population of over 100,000.

Therefore, if he were to simply let this scourge go, he would truly be a sinner.

After dealing with everything at the scene, Lin Hanzhou quickly planned his next move.

Putting everything else aside, the first step is definitely to break through to a higher realm.

He was stuck at the peak of the third tier and could break through at any time; he was only hesitant because of his position on Blue Star.

Now, he has arrived in this brand new middle world, where the rules of the lower world no longer apply.

He can now, without any reservations, strive for that new realm he has longed for.

Before long, Lin Hanzhou found a decent place on this desolate plain.

It was a hidden cave formed naturally by several huge rocks.

He sat cross-legged and began his attempt to break through to the fourth level of True Essence Realm.

With the accumulation of those decades in the previous world, his foundation was already extremely solid.

The bottleneck of the fourth-order True Essence Realm was practically non-existent for him.

"boom!"

With a thought, he mobilized the vast golden sea of ​​energy within his body and gently bumped against the invisible barrier.

"Snap!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out.

He easily broke through the bottleneck that had plagued countless third-tier martial artists and even prevented them from making any progress in their entire lives.

The liquid golden spiritual energy within his dantian began to undergo a higher level of compression and purification, and then a transformation.

In the end, the golden spiritual power transformed into strands of golden true essence containing terrifying power.

And so, he achieved the fourth-order True Essence Realm.

"call……"

Lin Hanzhou slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. He could feel the surging true essence within his body, as vast as the ocean.

With this breakthrough, his combat power will also see a surge.

He felt refreshed and invigorated.

However, as he carefully examined the brand-new golden true essence within his body, his brows furrowed slightly.

He noticed something unusual: the pure golden true essence was covered with extremely tiny black spots.

After carefully sensing the situation, Lin Hanzhou immediately realized the source of the problem.

There's a serious problem with the spiritual energy in this world!

It seems to have been contaminated with some unknown impurity.
