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

With the added power of the Seven Cauldrons, he is now virtually unmatched in the martial arts world.

···

"Dragon Ball!"

The allure of the Grandmaster realm has tempted countless people.

The once glorious Zhang family suddenly became the target of many evil spirits, but no one dared to make a move.

The Zhang family's power is not something that can be easily challenged.

"Father, drink these things first."

"Are you trying to stuff me to death?"

Zhang Yuan looked at the contents inside: thousand-year-old ginseng, lingzhi mushroom, he shou wu... all highly nourishing.

Most importantly, there was a huge snake gallbladder inside.

Three years later, the first medicinal snake has been successfully bred, and its flesh and blood have been stewed into the snake soup we know today.

Its medicinal power surpasses that of highly tonifying drugs.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing..."

The Dragon Balls are incredibly powerful. As long as it's not a direct infusion of energy, I'm confident I can help Father break through to the Seven Cauldrons Realm. It would just be another major boost.

"Once Father breaks through to the Seven Cauldrons Realm, I will no longer need to worry about your safety."

"Could the legend be true?"

Hearing that the power of the Dragon Balls could help him break through to the Seven Cauldrons Realm, even Zhang Yuan was shaken.

If the legend is true, its impact is unimaginable.

"It's not that simple. This Dragon Ball has basically been refined by my son, and he can perfectly manipulate the energy inside."

"If it were the Dragon Ball that Wan Sanqian had just traded, I would never dare to give it to Father. Even a tiny leak of its malevolent energy could turn someone into something neither human nor ghost after a breakthrough."

Are you sure this one won't?

Upon hearing that a breakthrough might render someone inhuman, even Zhang Yuan's eyes darted around and his lips twitched.

Is this kid up to no good? Maybe he's trying to seize the family fortune?

"No, last time, my soul left my body with the Palace Master Yaoyue and we basically refined this dragon pearl."

"Not to mention that the 'demonic energy' above has been cleared away, and this breakthrough only relied on the power of the Dragon Ball, not a direct infusion, I am still confident."

"This thing is too dangerous!"

Zhang Yuan had no doubts, after all, with his breakthrough to the Seven Cauldrons Realm, Zhang Xiaoshan no longer needed to worry about his safety.

Otherwise, he would be one of Zhang Xiaoshan's weaknesses.

His muscular physique, combined with his Seven Cauldrons 1.9 Iron Shirt technique, is absolutely no less defensive than Zhang Xiaoshan's Seven Cauldrons technique, and may even be stronger. This is an extraordinary talent.

Gulu!

As Zhang Yuan swallowed the highly nourishing snake soup in one gulp, the terrifying medicinal power erupted like a volcano, instantly turning Zhang Yuan's entire body abnormally red, with his blood surging wildly.

"Father, circulate your profound energy, and do not relax for a moment!"

At the same time, Zhang Xiaoshan activated the power of the Dragon Ball, and a hazy power of heaven and earth enveloped Zhang Yuan.

Using the power of astral projection, Zhang Xiaoshan carefully observed and guided the power of the Dragon Ball to open the Heavenly Gate for Zhang Yuan, breaking through all physical obstacles.

As Zhang Yuan pushed the Six Cauldrons Profound Technique to its limit, with the assistance of the Dragon Pearl's power, the original barrier of the Seven Cauldrons was instantly broken. At the same time, his cultivation method advanced from the sixth to the seventh level, absorbing the immense medicinal power to strengthen his blood and qi and accumulate fat.

Chapter 142 The Dragon Ball's Mysterious Reappearance: Assassin Murong Jiu

I've gained at least 20 pounds!

Zhang Yuan originally weighed at least 300 jin (150 kg), and now he should be over 400 jin (200 kg).

However, Zhang Xiaoshan was not worried that Zhang Yuan might die young because of his obesity, so he sent his spirit out of his body to help Zhang Yuan break through the bottleneck.

Zhang Xiaoshan then discovered that the layer of fat was only on the surface, like a natural armor. The internal organs were functioning normally, without any pressure or burden caused by too much fat.

In this way, there will be no phenomenon of premature death caused by overloading the five internal organs.

On the contrary, the blood and energy accumulated from the fat might even have a nourishing effect.

"A real breakthrough!"

According to previous estimates, it would take Zhang Yuan three years to break through his own limits, even with diligent practice.

But now, Dragon Ball has broken through an unimaginable barrier overnight.

Sure enough, it's no wonder that people are going crazy for it.

Moreover, what was previously just a rumor has now become a tangible experience for him.

"What amazing Dragon Balls! Kid, you're in big trouble now!"

The more wondrous the Dragon Balls are, the greater the trouble Zhang Xiaoshan will undoubtedly face.

Therefore, the more worried they are about Zhang Xiaoshan's safety, the more they realize that it's easier to dodge a spear in the open than to guard against a hidden arrow.

"Just kill as many as they come."

Moreover, Dragon Ball 19 wasn't as miraculous as Daddy imagined; this breakthrough was mainly due to the effects of the snake gall.

In three years, the effects of the gallbladder of this Bodhi snake have become no less than those of the precious blood of the viper that the Ginseng Immortal Old Monster had raised for twenty years. Combined with the ginseng, lingzhi and other powerful medicines in the snake soup, this is why my father was able to break through.

Instead of directly channeling the power of the Dragon Balls to help his father break through to the Seven Cauldrons Realm.

Father just forgot what I said: once the power of the Dragon Ball is infused into your body and you force a breakthrough, you will inevitably become neither human nor ghost.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Zhang Xiaoshan put away the Dragon Ball. Zhang Yuan's breakthrough meant that, apart from those old monsters, he was basically one of the top figures in the martial arts world.

The Golden Cauldron Iron Shirt technique is domineering and has no weaknesses. It is also innately powerful with pure Yang energy, making it one of the most unparalleled martial arts techniques in the world.

"The eleven barriers of the Golden Bell Shield of Master Juexin?"

“Master Juexin refused to take the gallbladder of the Bodhi snake, and wanted to create something out of nothing, which will inevitably lead him into the demonic path.”

The eerie and domineering nature of Dragon Ball is no joke!

"Pity!"

Juexin had served the Zhang family for many years, so Zhang Yuan naturally hoped that he would reach the level of the Eleventh Level of the Golden Bell Shield, or even the Twelfth Level of Bodhidharma.

After breaking through, Zhang Yuan immediately felt the difference between the Six Cauldrons and the Seven Cauldrons.

The Six Cauldrons Realm belongs to external martial arts, which involves physically strengthening the body and bones.

Qi Ding, on the other hand, progressed from the outside in, reaching the pinnacle of his realm, and developed the ultimate protective aura—Pure Yang Qi.

Furthermore, his overall defense has more than doubled, making Zhang Yuan's defense at the tank level.

The domineering power of Pure Yang Gang Jin can be used for both defense and offense, and its strength directly reaches the level of the Four Great Masters of Tianlong.

"By the way, Father, this is the cultivation method of the Pure Yang Finger. It is a peerless skill that I evolved from comprehending the Pure Yang Limitless Skill. The finger strength is extremely strong and yang, and is in no way inferior to the extremely yin and evil Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill."

"Pure Yang Finger?"

Zhang Yuan naturally knew that this finger technique was created specifically to break An Yunshan's Absorption Technique.

···

"This kid has caused a huge disaster, and he actually wants you and me to help him protect his family?"

Yaoyue looked at the letter in front of her, and with a wave of her hand, it turned to ashes. At the same time, the murderous aura at her fingertips left Lianxing helpless.

Knowing that Yaoyue's three-year marriage with the other party in the world of inner demons was not just a fleeting dream, she could feel Yaoyue's burning jealousy, which was raging across the sky.

The more perfect Zhang Xiaoshan's wedding preparations were, the angrier Yaoyue, as the empress, became.

"sister!"

"Go ahead!"

After thinking it over, Yaoyue decided to let Lianxing go instead.

After all, family members are a weakness; once they are taken hostage, the Dragon Balls will almost certainly be given away.

Even though she was dissatisfied with Zhang Xiaoshan, she knew the importance of the Dragon Ball.

Such a treasure must never fall into the hands of villains.

"Sister, why make things difficult for yourself!"

"You bastard, what, you think you can teach me a lesson?"

"Lianxing wouldn't dare!"

Lianxing lowered her head and left. Faced with Yaoyue's jealousy, she knew that this was not the time to step forward.

Meanwhile, the rumors circulating in the martial arts world about the Dragon Balls became increasingly sinister, with some even claiming that they contained the secret of shattering the void.

However, none of this mattered to Zhang Xiaoshan, who was at the center of everything and was currently playing in the pool.

The sight of several beautiful mermaids nearby was a real treat.

With such an extravagant honeymoon, Zhang Xiaoshan didn't care whether the building rose or fell, or whether the clouds gathered or dispersed.

He didn't care about anything unless someone came to provoke him.

Even the Six Doors and the Divine Marquis's Mansion, which came to Zhang Xiaoshan's door several times, could only watch helplessly as he indulged in debauchery.

···

"Who?"

At night, Zhang Xiaoshan was planning a new round of business in his study.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan looked outside and was surprised that someone had made a move so quickly and even broken into the place.

The newcomer moved with incredible speed, and in the blink of an eye, he had already unleashed seven sword strikes, the dense sword net completely sealing off Zhang Xiaoshan's body.

Such sharp swordsmanship makes him a first-rate swordsman in the martial arts world.

Ding!

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan flicked his finger, and that seemingly casual flick actually struck the tip of the longsword.

A surge of pure Yang energy passed through the sword, nearly causing the attacker to drop his sword, and at the same time, the attack of the sword net vanished instantly.

The first strike failed, and the attacker's sword flashed and swirled as he thrust forward again.

Compared to the previous dense sword light, this sword strike was mainly sharp and fierce, clearly indicating a change in swordsmanship.

The sword flashed coldly, and the killing intent of the sword coming from the west pierced straight towards us.

But in front of Zhang Xiaoshan, they couldn't advance an inch further, even a foot, causing the newcomer to show a look of horror.

“If it weren’t for the fact that you are a woman, and you are a man, I, Zhang, would not have given you a second chance.”

The newcomer tried to retreat, but was frozen in place by a pure yang finger strike that struck the opponent's vital point silently from a distance.

After this commotion, Zhang Xiaoshan lost all interest in designing and left the man in the study.

With a scream, a seductive and alluring moan suddenly came from the bedroom, which was separated by only one door.

The next morning, Zhang Xiaoshan first practiced the Pure Yang Limitless Skill on the mountaintop.

After returning, he held the sleeping Huang Rong and dozed off for a while until the sun was high in the sky. Only then did he get up to eat at Huang Rong's urging.

As for the man in black in the study, he had long since thrown him into the Mediterranean Sea.

It wasn't until Jiang Xue went to tidy up the study that she discovered the frozen man in black and found Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Oh, I stayed up too late yesterday and was too tired to remember."

"What···"

Suddenly, Huang Rong remembered the commotion from last night, and her beautiful face flushed red. She glared at Zhang Xiaoshan with her beautiful eyes.

The commotion these past few days has been caused by Hongxiao and Jiangxue, who are both on our side of the same family, living in the next room.

Even the drifting catkins and the two great orchid girls were in the guest rooms in the distance.

"Whose daughter is this?"
