In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

His three children cultivated the Longevity Technique, along with the Pure Yang Divine Skill and the Nine Yin Divine Skill. They didn't need these things to extend their lifespan at all. These were just derivative techniques. A Ganoderma lucidum fruit was at most an added bonus.

And none of the people Zhang Xiaoshan knew were worth such a large investment.

Even the Dragon Emperor was no exception.

Zhang Xiaoshan comprehended the Dao of Heaven and realized that the Dragon Emperor's death was not due to his strength, but rather to destiny.

After all, the Dragon Emperor had already undergone a complete transformation and possessed the divine skill of the wedding dress bestowed by Meng Tian, ​​so it was impossible for him to die of illness on his eastern tour.

Unless Zhang Xiaoshan intervenes and saves the Dragon Emperor from certain death.

But Zhang Xiaoshan had no such awareness. Between the Zhang family and the Nine Provinces of the Empire, he would undoubtedly choose the Zhang family.

The only person who needs it is Zhang Yuan.

With this method of cleansing his marrow and strengthening his bones, coupled with Zhang Xiaoshan's Pure Yang Finger, Zhang Yuan will definitely undergo a complete transformation.

"Young master, the items are ready."

On the way, Liu Sheng Piaoxu received a message from Hai Dongqing, brought from Peach Blossom Island.

The white tiger's corpse was secretly sent to Peach Blossom Island by Yingxia and the other members of the Blood Droplets, and handed over to Murong Jiu for disposal.

The tiger skin, along with some other miscellaneous items, was sealed inside a clay statue of a white tiger. Zhang Xiaoshan planned to build a tiger god shrine next to the Zhang family mausoleum as a guardian beast for the Zhang family.

It should be noted that the Zhang family's ancestral graves have been moved to the Kunlun Mountains.

The West belongs to the element of metal, and the White Tiger suppresses it.

In terms of feng shui and fortune, this Tiger God Shrine plays a significant role for the Zhang family, aiding in their battles and tribulations.

As for the other ingredients, some tiger bones were used to make medicinal ointments and tiger penises were used to make medicinal wine, while the tiger meat was naturally shared among the experts at the Zhang family's base to replenish qi and blood.

It can be said that Zhang Xiaoshan made the most of everything Baihu had.

As for the tiger cubs?

Even if it becomes an existence surpassing the White Tiger in the future, it will still be a loyal guardian beast to the Zhang family.

According to the principles of Feng Shui, the White Tiger and the Zhang family are considered to be connected in terms of fortune.

Although this claim is absurd and far-fetched, everything is actually governed by laws. Zhang Xiaoshan cleansed the tiger cub's tendons and marrow, so it can be said that the white tiger was the Zhang family's pet dog.

"I will personally go to Kunlun Mountain during the annual memorial ceremony."

Looking at the tiger cub in his hands, Zhang Xiaoshan slowly nourished and broke through the tiger cub's meridians with pure Yang Qi.

"Alright, little guy, eat it!"

Zhang Xiaoshan took out a Bodhi Ganoderma lucidum fruit and placed it in front of the tiger cub.

The moment the tiger cub saw the Ganoderma lucidum fruit, its eyes flashed with a bright light, for it recognized it as the very same divine object that had appeared in the previous miracle.

So he rolled his tongue and put the Ganoderma lucidum fruit into his mouth.

In an instant, a blazing torrent erupted within his body.

Zhang Xiaoshan then pointed a finger at the tiger cub's forehead, causing the cub to instantly lose consciousness.

At this moment, the surging heat, guided by Zhang Xiaoshan's pure Yang purple energy, circulated within the tiger cub's body along the 'Tiger God Technique' he had created.

This Tiger God Technique is the method by which Zhang Xiaoshan's internal energy circulates through the meridians of the White Tiger cub, forming the foundation of his cultivation.

Because it was a naturally gifted beast, and with the pure yang purple energy nourishing its meridians and the thousand-year-old ginseng generating internal energy, the medicinal power of the Ganoderma lucidum fruit, under Zhang Xiaoshan's guidance, completely opened up the tiger cub's energy channels.

"Young master, can this white tiger really circulate the Great Heavenly Cycle?"

Looking at the tiger cub in front of her, Liu Sheng Piaoxu had never heard of wild beasts cultivating, even if this was a strange beast.

But now Zhang Xiaoshan is going to break this precedent by teaching this little tiger cub the Great Circulation of Inner Breath Technique, which may be the first exotic beast that can cultivate it.

Moreover, she had no doubt about Zhang Xiaoshan's abilities or whether he could succeed.

"If humans can cultivate, why can't other animals?"

Looking at the tiger cub that had entered a state of tortoise-like breathing, Zhang Xiaoshan couldn't help but show anticipation and said:

"Humans have a spirit, but beasts may not be without it."

However, humans are also fortunate, as Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and Qihuang transmitted the art of medicine, laying the foundation for medicine. After thousands of years of exploration, the cultivation methods we have today gradually emerged.

With my current level of cultivation, helping this little guy open the Great Circulation would be a piece of cake.

It is mainly a cultivation method suitable for this white tiger cub.

After all, there has never been a single cultivation manual for beasts throughout history.

After saying that, Zhang Xiaoshan placed one hand on the tiger cub, feeling the changes in the white tiger cub.

As the white tiger cub entered a deeper state of fetal breathing, under the powerful medicinal force, the cub was enveloped by a mysterious and surging energy, which was the Qi generated by the Tiger God Technique circulating through the Great Heaven.

Succeeded?

Liu Sheng Piaoxu looked at the white tiger cub in front of her in disbelief. This little guy had actually opened up his own Great Circulation and successfully circulated the mental technique of the Great Circulation.

Even Zhang Xiaoshan's eyes showed satisfaction.

However, these results are only due to the support of the powerful medicinal effects and the guidance of the 'Tiger God Technique' by the power of the primordial spirit.

Whether it will truly succeed depends on whether the white tiger cub can cultivate the 'Tiger God Technique' on its own after it wakes up.

This is the key!

Moreover, at this moment, a tremendous transformation was taking place within the white tiger cub's body.

It should be known that the Pure Yang Finger's Turtle Breathing Technique, the immense medicinal power of the Bodhi Lingzhi Fruit, and the 'Tiger God Technique' created by Zhang Xiaoshan, are definitely much more powerful than the mutation of the previous generation of White Tiger.

Especially since the white tiger cubs are less than a year old at this time, it is the best period for them to improve their bones and muscles.

Once the medicinal power is fully absorbed, the transformation that occurs is earth-shattering, maximizing the medicinal effect.

Chapter 713 Bloodline Transformation, Resurrection

Roar!

A young yet deep and resonant tiger roar echoed for miles, intimidating all beasts.

Upon waking, the white tiger cub seemed to have ascended to the status of king of beasts. With a roar, it was no less powerful than the tiger's roar that Zhang Xiaoshan had heard in Changbai Mountain last time.

Even though it's just a 'aftereffect' of waking up, it shows how much the tiger cub has benefited.

The profound and potent Qi accumulated over a century is a hundred times more powerful than the Buddhist Lion's Roar.

As a result, many horses in the surrounding towns and passing carriages panicked and went berserk because of this sudden tiger's roar.

"Okay, stop yelling!"

At Zhang Xiaoshan's shout, the white tiger cub immediately lay down obediently beside Zhang Xiaoshan's hand, just like a puppy.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan once again channeled his true qi into the white tiger cub's body.

As Zhang Xiaoshan's true qi seeped into the white tiger cub's body, the Tiger God Technique inadvertently began to operate rapidly, and the powerful and majestic Tiger God Qi suddenly erupted.

Sure enough, it worked!

At this point, the Tiger God Technique can not only circulate the Great Heavenly Cycle on its own, but the white tiger cub can also cultivate on its own, without Zhang Xiaoshan needing to nourish his body with True Qi.

Moreover, with each cycle of the Tiger God Technique, it grows stronger.

"Young master, this little guy succeeded at 620?"

"It was indeed a success. The Tiger God Technique operated on its own, and a surge of primordial energy within my body flowed like a mighty river, reaching the pinnacle of the Tiger God Technique!"

The white tiger cubs are exceptionally gifted. If they were to absorb the profound and unparalleled inner energy of a martial artist, their strength upon reaching adulthood would be unimaginable.

In particular, this Tiger God Technique was specially made by Zhang Xiaoshan for the white tiger cubs.

Once it's activated, it can enhance internal energy and strengthen the body.

Not only will it bring out the full potential of the original white tiger cub's talent, but it will also gradually undergo a qualitative change as water accumulates into a deep pool.

In this way, the two little ones won't accuse him of favoritism.

From the moment Zijun came into contact with the 'Heavenly Secret Staff', she learned of Zian's identity.

Furthermore, they learned that the divine sword in Zi'an's hand was the same divine weapon that Zhang Xiaoshan obtained in the Mo Family's Mechanical City, and that it was an unparalleled divine weapon.

Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality!

Zhang Xiaoshan understood this principle well. Even though the little ones were not aware of it at all, Zhang Xiaoshan still planned to erase this trace.

To avoid unexpected setbacks in the future.

Therefore, the gifts for the two little ones are of utmost importance.

The white tiger cub's aptitude will undoubtedly be a huge asset to its future achievements, no less than that of a supreme divine weapon.

The other gift was the Xuan Turtle Spirit Weapon. While its power might not be as great as a supreme divine weapon, its auxiliary abilities were absolutely top-notch.

Especially in its dragon claw form, it can crush even the most powerful divine weapons with its ability to shatter gold and jade.

···

"Young Master, we have arrived at Sanghai City!"

Several days later, Zhang Xiaoshan finally returned to Sanghai City.

This time, however, Zhang Xiaoshan was only accompanied by Liu Sheng Piaoxu, and even Huang Rong had returned to Peach Blossom Island from Japan.

In one year, the Zhang family's gains in Japan alone exceeded three million gold and silver mines, in addition to some top-quality seafood. Therefore, they parted ways after Japan.

First, to escort gold, silver, and top-quality seafood back to the Zhang family;

Secondly, Huang Rong is not like Liu Sheng Piaoxu, who is used to killing, and Zhang Xiaoshan is not like Guo Jing, so they need Huang Rong's assistance.

Huang Rong, on the contrary, avoided the cruelty of the battlefield whenever possible.

Because of the Zhang family's invitation, Sanghai City was now a hub of activity, with complex power dynamics and conflicting forces.

Even if some forces guessed that Zhang Xiaoshan wouldn't give up overseas territory for nothing, there must be some kind of conspiracy hidden behind it.

But they knew that if they didn't get involved, others would take the lead.

Step by step, step by step.

The Zhang family is a prime example; the development of overseas territories brought them enormous benefits.

Every year, a steady stream of spices, top-quality rosewood, gemstones, and medicinal herbs from Southeast Asia... even various sweet potato crops, and meteorites and iron from the New World...

The Zhang family carriage, clearly bearing the banner of the Zhang family, showed that Zhang Xiaoshan had made no attempt to conceal his whereabouts from the very beginning.

Moreover, the Empire had always kept Zhang Xiaoshan's whereabouts under control, so his arrival could not be kept secret from those who were interested.

"Fusu greets the young master!"

Inside the Guanhai Tower, Fusu had been waiting for a long time.

He knew Zhang Xiaoshan would stay here, since Zhang Xiaoshan was probably here to see off Mirage. Naturally, the closer the temporary place was to Xiaoshengxianzhuang, the better.

"Young Master Fusu, it's been a long time!"

Zhang Xiaoshan nodded at the humble-looking Fusu.

At this time, the empire began to compete internally. Although Fusu had the support of the Meng family, the high-ranking official Meng Yi in the court, and the rising star Meng Tian in the military, and his empire's prestige was also extremely high.

However, when it comes to scheming, they are no match for Zhao Gao and Li Si.

At the same time, Fusu also saw the little white tiger in Zhang Xiaoshan's arms.

He knew that this was the legendary beast cub, and an extremely rare white tiger cub at that.

For this empire's harvest, Li Xin gifted him a wild boar weighing 1,300 jin (approximately 650 kg).

Moreover, the intelligence report stated that Zhang Xiaoshan had also captured a wild boar king, comparable in size to an elephant, weighing at least tens of thousands of kilograms, which sounded quite astonishing.

What are usually considered exotic beasts are rare sights, but for the Zhang family, they are commonplace.

"Is this the white tiger cub that you obtained in Changbai Mountain, young master?"

Tigers have been top predators since ancient times, and the white tiger is even more legendary, being one of the four mythical beasts.

Although this is a myth, the value of a white tiger cub is immeasurable.

Moreover, this is a rare beast, unlike other tiger cubs, so there's no worry about them not being tamed.
