After a while, Chen Dong slowly opened his eyes. A glimmer of light flashed in his dark pupils, like lightning across the night sky. A surge of power surged out from his lower abdomen and poured into his limbs.
"This power..."
Chen Dong's mind moved, and he clenched his fist suddenly. With the sound of "crack", Chen Dong felt that his strength had improved a lot compared to before. He even felt that if he met Master Huang again, he would not be weak at all.
.
"This is the third level of Wanxiang Taoism... um?"
Chen Dong took a deep breath and concentrated his mind, intending to observe the changes in his body, but the next moment he was stunned because he found that there was nothing else in his body except two very powerful internal energies.
According to the records of Wanxiang Taoism, when cultivation reaches the third level, the Qi in the body will turn into a sea of clouds and gather in the Dantian, thus gathering the clouds into rain.
Although he didn't know what kind of scene this was talking about, he was certain that there were definitely not just two internal energies. In terms of quantity alone, the internal energy in his body was not even as good as that of Master Huang...
According to his inference, the third level of Wanxiang Taoism should correspond to the martial arts master mentioned by Lin Tianhu. Obviously, he has not yet reached that level of strength.
"I have achieved a breakthrough, but not completely?"
Chen Dong thought speechlessly, so he had broken through his loneliness. Although his strength had indeed improved a lot compared to before, it was obviously far from the ideal third level of gathering clouds and rain.
"Hey, it seems it's not that easy to break through to the third level."
Chen Dong sighed inwardly and was quite disappointed. Originally, he got this piece of spiritual jade, which made him mistakenly believe that he could easily break through to the third level, but he still underestimated the difficulty of cultivation, and now he is still far away from the third level.
"According to Liu Ruyan, the Lei family in Haizhou dug out a large piece of spiritual jade, which was divided into three pieces. One piece was bought by a big shot from the capital, and there were two pieces left, one of which was placed in Lan
It was auctioned at the Thies auction house, and another piece was at Lei's house.
If he could get the spiritual jade from Landis Auction House, he might be able to break through to the third level. Of course, there would also be medicinal materials.
"Looks like I still have to make a trip to Haicheng." Chen Dong murmured to himself, took a deep breath, and started to operate the Wanxiang Taoist method again, and quickly operated it for two days.
Throughout the night, Chen Dong practiced and consolidated his newly achieved breakthrough strength.
…………
The next morning, Songshan Railway Station.
"Xiaodong, be polite to your aunt when I see you later, and stop being so childish."
Knowing that Chen Dong was not interested in his aunt's family, Zhang Li specially warned her, fearing that Chen Dong would lose his temper.
"Mom, I understand."
Chen Dong responded helplessly. Although he was very unhappy in his heart, he could bear it for the sake of his mother. Anyway, it was just for a short visit and it was not a permanent stay.
After waiting for almost an hour, Chen Dongfang saw a beautifully dressed mother and daughter appear in view. The middle-aged woman was wearing a blue and white blue and white cheongsam, with heavy makeup on her face, and a gold necklace hanging around her neck.
It looks quite exaggerated. The daughter is wearing a small white suspender belt and smoky gray jeans. Her two white and tender calves are round and straight, full of youthful atmosphere.
"Sister Ping, here."
Seeing the two of them, Zhang Li immediately greeted them and said enthusiastically, "Sister Ping, you are tired after taking the train all the way. I will help you get your things."
With that said, he went to pick up the salutes of the two of them.
Looking at Zhang Li's enthusiastic look, Zhang Ping just glanced lightly. When she saw Zhang Li wearing a simple floral top and trousers, a look of contempt suddenly appeared in her eyes, and she said, "Isn't it?
, this Songshan City is really backward, it doesn’t even have an airport, and it takes seven or eight hours to take a train, so Yuncheng is better, you can fly directly to wherever you go, and you’ll be there in just a nap.”
Hearing the pride in Zhang Ping's tone, Zhang Li smiled and echoed, "Songshan City is a small place after all. How can it be compared with the provincial capital."
"Haha, that's true. Even the train station is so shabby. I really don't know how you stayed in such a remote place." As she spoke, Zhang Ping's tone became more and more contemptuous.
Hearing this, Chen Dong was speechless for a while. As far as he knew, although his aunt's family went to the provincial capital, they just went to work. They really regarded themselves as city people. If he hadn't taken his mother's face into consideration, he would have
Leave.
Hearing the disgust in Zhang Ping's tone, Zhang Li's expression was a little unnatural, but she still forced a smile and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I have bought all the groceries and am waiting to catch you."
“There’s no need to eat!”
But who knows the next moment, Zhang Ping waved her hand and refused, "I also asked Yingying's boyfriend to have dinner with her at noon. My future son-in-law is very kind to Yingying. I knew Yingying was coming this time, so I asked for leave specially.
Come pick us up."
Zhang Ping said, her words full of showoff, "By the way, Yingying, when will your boyfriend arrive?"
"We're almost there, there may be a traffic jam on the road."
Liu Ying said something, stood on tiptoes and looked around. Suddenly her eyes lit up, and she excitedly waved to a young man in a suit and leather shoes, who immediately came over.
"Dear." Holding the young man's arm, Liu Ying immediately spoke coquettishly, her tone full of coquettishness, and then she pulled the young man to introduce to Zhang Ping, "Mom, this is what I mentioned to you before.
Du Rong, Brother Rong, this is my mother."
"Hello, aunt." The young man glanced at Zhang Ping, with a hint of contempt in his eyes, but he still spoke politely.
"You are Xiao Du, not bad. I often hear Yingying mention you. You are indeed a talented person." Zhang Ping said with satisfaction, smiling so much that she could hardly close her mouth.
"mom!"
When Liu Ying heard this, she immediately looked shy, obviously she had been right.
"By the way, Brother Rong, why did you come just now?" Liu Ying held Du Rong's arm and asked affectionately.
"Hey, let's not mention it. There is a two-billion-dollar project that I need to deal with. I really can't leave, so I was delayed for a while." The young man raised his voice deliberately and stretched out his hand to straighten his collar, looking quite proud.
"Two billion?"
When Zhang Ping heard this, she immediately exclaimed, her eyes glowing green and her breathing quickened.
Seeing Zhang Ping's shocked look, the contempt in Du Rong's eyes became more intense. He deliberately raised his wrist to reveal the large gold Rolex watch on his wrist, and said nonchalantly, "Small projects, I usually don't care about small projects like this."
Let my subordinates handle it. This is an old customer today, so I’ll give it a try."
Even so, Du Rong's face was full of pride, for fear that everyone might not hear clearly, which attracted several passers-by to look sideways. Zhang Ping and Liu Ying even looked at him with admiration, which made him feel very happy.
.
"Son-in-law, what do you do?" Zhang Ping asked cautiously, and even the title changed before she knew it.
"Mom, what are you yelling about? Brother Rong and I are not married yet." Liu Ying was even more embarrassed, but her arms hugged her tighter, and her joy was beyond words.
"Isn't this a matter of time?" Zhang Ping said nonchalantly. After all, she was not going to let such a good husband go.
"It's nothing, just working as a project manager at Jincheng Construction." Du Rong said nonchalantly, as if he was telling a simple matter.
