Chapter 136: Cheng Han is about to condense Body Tempering Seal?

Since this morning, all the personnel at the Sixth Outpost have noticed that Chief Inspector Cheng's state is obviously not quite right.

The first person to notice was the newly appointed clerk who had just arrived.

It was Miss Yu Meixian, who often coveted her talented junior brother.

Just like usual, this girl stood at the outpost gate, patiently waiting for the arrival of the first chief inspector of the entire office.

It is now 7:45.

In about five minutes, Junior Brother Cheng will arrive at the outpost riding a feathered beast.

Yu Meixian looked around while muttering to herself in her heart, "Come on! I want to be the first to greet Junior Brother every day!"

Her deputy chief uncle, Yu Xianglong, had made it clear that Junior Brother was a once-in-fifty-years genius, with a 95% chance of becoming a Xuan Master in the future.

Her parents had also made it clear that once she boarded Junior Brother's ship, her life would be like taking a super shortcut, this being her only chance in life.

The clerk Miss Yu agreed with this.

The shortcut to success is right in front of her, but she pretends to be aloof and refuses to take it. Is she an idiot?

Am I just going along with the trend?

So what!

In the future, I will become the esteemed wife of a Xuan Master, and with just a few words, I can make your whole family tremble in fear. Will you still be able to put on an aloof face then?

Five minutes later.

"Da! Da!"

The rhythmic sound of footsteps came from the other side of the street.

Yu Meixian immediately straightened her chest, making her beautiful curves even more captivating.

Junior Brother Cheng is here!

The clerk Miss Yu carefully discerned that the feathered beast Junior Brother raised, named "Guagua," had a slightly faster pace, so she immediately recognized it.

Soon enough.

One person and one mount appeared at the outpost gate.

"Woof! Woof!"

The greetings of the dogs are always one step ahead.

Yu Meixian made every effort to show the brightest smile and offered a sweet greeting unique to a young girl:

"Chief Inspector Cheng, good morning!"

This sentence may sound simple, but the clerk Miss Yu had practiced it thousands of times in private.

At this moment, every word she uttered was like a jade bead falling onto a plate, with a clear and pleasant voice, making people unconsciously have a good impression.

However.

The response she received was a distracted answer.

"Miss Yu, good morning!"

Not only that.

Yu Meixian also keenly noticed a strange and bewildered look in Junior Brother Cheng's expression.

As if his body was here, but his soul was elsewhere.

How could this be?

What's wrong with Junior Brother?

"Ang!"

Guagua called out and crouched down.

Cheng Han jumped off the feathered beast and walked straight towards the direction of the cafeteria without even glancing at the well-dressed Miss Secretary.

Yu Meixian, however, was not discouraged. She watched her junior brother walk away and took out a few oil-ling fruits, feeding them to Guagua.

These were Guagua's favorite nuts.

Building a good relationship with her junior brother's feathered beast was also part of her plan.

Guagua ate the nuts greedily and walked quickly towards the outpost animal shed, letting out an "ang" sound.

During this period of time, this feathered beast that could enter and exit the animal shed on its own had already become famous throughout the outpost.

Yu Meixian was about to return to the office when a sudden speculation came to her mind: "Uncle said that Junior Brother Cheng has almost completed the full set of Nine Elements Battle Techniques and is about to condense the Body Tempering Seal."

"Could it be that the strange state Junior Brother was in just now was an attempt to capture a profound opportunity?"

Miss Secretary had a premonition that this was the truth.

She couldn't help but exclaim, "Junior Brother's progress is four or five days faster than what Captain Liu predicted. He truly is a genius!"

*

Naturally.

Liu Yidao became the second person to know this news.

After listening to Miss Secretary's account, the outpost captain calculated for a moment, his tone filled with astonishment: "So you're saying that Cheng Han only took nine days to master the last move of the Nine Elements Battle Techniques, the 'Returning Soul Style'."

Yu Meixian's beautiful eyes widened in an instant.

If it were a month ago, she wouldn't have understood the concept.

She had recently asked Yu Xianglong in detail to find out what it really meant.

In simple terms, most warriors took an average of four months to fully master the Returning Soul Style before condensing the Body Tempering Seal.

Yu Xianglong, a retired vice lieutenant, was considered a strong warrior in the Black Armor Army, and it took him a month and ten days to fully grasp and display the Returning Soul Style.

And yet, Junior Brother only took a short nine days, which was truly terrifying!

Miss Secretary couldn't help but sigh, "He truly deserves to be a genius among the profound scholars!"

Liu Yidao also felt the same, "Indeed!"

He stood up and asked, "Cheng Han is having breakfast in the cafeteria, right?"

Yu Meixian replied with a sound, "Cheng Chief Inspector usually takes about ten minutes for breakfast. He should still be in the cafeteria."

Liu Yidao was a little surprised, "You even know this?"

Yu Meixian showed a gentle smile, "I have keen observation skills."

Liu Yidao's tone was teasing, "How long does it take me to have breakfast every day?"

Miss Secretary rarely showed a shy expression.

Liu Yidao chuckled and stood up, "I'll go take a look at the cafeteria."

He quickly left the outpost captain's office.

Yu Meixian touched her slightly blushing face and muttered in a low voice, "Shameless! You're not as handsome as Junior Brother, why should I pay attention to your breakfast?"

Two minutes later.

Liu Yidao returned.

He immediately gave his conclusion, "Cheng Han is indeed attempting to condense the Body Tempering Seal."

Yu Meiyan blinked her beautiful eyes and muttered to herself, "Isn't this obvious? You're a retired soldier, can't you come up with something more than what an ordinary person would say?"

Liu Yidao talked about "professional" content, saying, "I sense that there seems to be a hidden source energy fluctuation in Cheng Han's body. He is trying his best to harmonize the spirit, soul, and body."

"The first step in condensing the Body Tempering Seal is to make the three aspects tend to be coordinated, which is called 'Unified Harmony of the Primordial Spirit.'"

Yu Meiyan asked, "Sergeant, in your personal opinion, how long do you think Cheng Han will take to complete this step?"

Liu Yidao pondered for a moment and replied, "It took me two months back then. With Cheng Han's talent, I estimate about ten days..."

He didn't finish the last word "right" and suddenly closed his mouth, turning his head to look at the wall on the right side.

Yu Meiyan was puzzled.

"Why are you suddenly looking at the wall while talking? What's there?"

The clerk Miss noticed that the sergeant's expression seemed off.

Curiously, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Liu Yidao stood up abruptly and rushed out of the door like a whirlwind.

Yu Meiyan was even more puzzled.

Is the sergeant sick?

Soon after, Liu Yidao returned and announced astonishing news, "Cheng Han has completed the Unified Harmony of the Primordial Spirit, he..."

Yu Meiyan was stunned for a moment, then rushed out.

Liu Yidao watched her back and shook his head, "Puzzling."

The clerk Miss ran to the entrance of the cafeteria and happened to see Cheng Han coming out from inside.

She stared at his face without blinking, confirming what Yu Xianglong had casually mentioned.

"Although 'Unified Harmony of the Primordial Spirit' is a state that is difficult to describe in words, ordinary people can easily perceive it."

"The highly coordinated spirit, soul, and body will passively stimulate the Source Perception Seal, and spiritual power will spontaneously form a 'Primordial Spirit Field' around the body."

"No matter how much I explain now, I'm afraid you won't understand. When you truly see the Primordial Spirit Field, you will naturally understand."

At this moment, Yu Meiyan felt that Cheng Xuedi exuded an indescribable sense of harmony.

It was as if he had merged with nature, as if nature was a part of him.

I understand!

So this is the Primordial Spirit Field!

When Cheng Han saw this girl running over inexplicably and staring at him, he asked in confusion, "Miss Yu, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Meiyan couldn't help but say, "You look really handsome!"

This was a sincere statement.

She really thought that Cheng Xuedi's figure walking on the snow, blending seamlessly with the snowy scenery, had a unique and touching beauty.

The corner of Cheng Han's mouth twitched.

Is this girl infatuated?

The clerk Miss realized that she was acting foolishly, and her pretty face instantly turned red.

How embarrassing!

Yu Meiyan's mind seemed to have a momentary lapse, and she blurted out, "Let's be girlfriend and boyfriend!"

Cheng Han was stunned.

Did this girl take the wrong medicine by coming to confess early in the morning?

Yu Meixian realized her mistake and quickly said, "Just kidding," with a lively rabbit jumping in her chest, she hurriedly left without knowing where to go.

She was a clever girl and understood that staying to wait for an answer would most likely result in rejection.

What's worse is that it would leave her with no room to maneuver.

The best solution is to not give Cheng Han a chance to speak and run away immediately.

*

After Liu Yidao, the others at the outpost, along with a group of spirit beasts, also noticed that Cheng Han was acting very strangely.

During the daytime patrol.

All of the subordinates noticed that Chief Cheng was acting strangely, as if he had been bewitched.

For example.

The Chief was walking fine at the front, suddenly stopped, turned around, and grabbed the arm of a patrol member, forcefully pushing him out.

The patrol member slid on the snow for more than forty meters before coming to a stop.

Everyone (including the dogs) was startled.

One patrol member sounded uncertain, "Isn't this the first move of the Nine Yuan Strong Body Style, 'Hidden Horse Stance'?"

Another patrol member was also surprised, "It looks like it, and the use of force is similar, but can the Hidden Horse Stance really throw someone this far in one go?"

It is difficult to understand that the person involved described the feeling afterwards, saying that there was a strange sensation of standing on level ground while sliding.

This situation truly exceeded everyone's understanding.

If the outpost leader hadn't quietly given a heads up to not interfere with Chief Cheng no matter what he was doing these days, everyone would have immediately reported it.

Here's another example.

In the afternoon.

At the entrance of a vegetable market.

A cart carrying over a thousand kilograms suddenly broke down, causing a small congestion at the entrance.

Chief Cheng had already walked past, but suddenly turned around and waved his right hand towards the crowd.

In the next instant.

The crowd dispersed in an orderly manner.

The cart slid abruptly for over five meters, clearing the entrance.

The crowd was in an uproar.

Chief Cheng, however, left without a care.

A group of patrol members followed behind, all amazed.

"The combat technique Chief used just now seems to be the ninth move, 'Dragon Capture Style'?"

"It looks like the Dragon Capture Style, but moving a cart weighing over a thousand kilograms this far from a distance, the outpost leader is a retired soldier, and it seems like he doesn't have this ability, right?"

Finally.

One patrol member figured out the key to the problem.

"Chief Cheng's state is very similar to the second stage of the Condensed Body Tempering Seal, 'Unity of Nine Elements,' which greatly enhances the power of combat techniques by integrating spiritual and physical strength."

The group immediately realized.

"It's really possible!"

"No wonder Chief Cheng's combat techniques suddenly became so powerful."
