My beautiful CEO wife-Chapter 1478: Has Xiao Zheng Broken Through His Realm?

After the gift exchange, Ruan Qingfeng originally intended to talk more with Xiao Zheng to strengthen their relationship, but seeing Xiao Zheng cough a few times with a suddenly pale complexion, he felt it inappropriate to stay longer, and thus took his leave immediately.

Xiao Zheng cheerfully instructed Titan to see these people off. Although handling such social tasks posed no difficulty for him, he was quite impatient with these trivial matters. Life is finite, so why waste it on such mundane affairs?

Xiao Zheng’s eyes fell on the three Holy Medicines displayed on the table, a fiery light flickering in his gaze. There was no denying that this time the Four Great Sanctuaries had been exceedingly generous. Even Xiao Zheng found it impossible to maintain inner calm in the presence of these three Holy Medicines.

For a Martial Artist, the greatest temptation isn’t power, wealth, or women, because they can obtain those at any time they desire. The only real allure is the possibility of breaking through to a higher realm!

The Red Blood Ginseng, Eight Treasure Purple Lotus, plus that miraculous purple-black tea leaf—consuming these would undoubtedly increase his chances of a breakthrough.

"I am now at the peak of the Initial Stage Martial Saint, just one step away from breaking through to the Middle-stage Martial Saint. Since I have these three Holy Medicines, time is of the essence, so I should seize this opportunity to break through,"

Xiao Zheng thought. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Having made up his mind, Xiao Zheng took the three Holy Medicines, found Long Qie and the others, and informed them of his plan to make a breakthrough, instructing them to safeguard the Sky Net Base and handle any arising issues themselves.

Xiao Zheng’s breakthrough is naturally a significant event. Hearing this, Long Qie immediately nodded with determination, promising to fortify the Sky Net Base like a steel bucket, ensuring that not even a mosquito could get inside, thus guaranteeing Xiao Zheng’s peace of mind during his breakthrough.

Xiao Zheng smiled, having great trust in Long Qie. He patted Long Qie on the shoulder for encouragement, then entered the secret chamber.

This secret chamber is the most secure one in the Sky Net Base, constructed fifty meters underground, surrounded by bedrock. The walls are made of reinforced concrete layered with steel and alloy, making it missile-proof.

This chamber was only recently completed. Previously, whenever Long Qie, Titan, or Xiao Zheng trained in the Sky Net Base, the commotion was so massive that the chamber was often demolished.

Finally, Xiao Zheng found it too troublesome and ordered Sky Net members to build this top-tier chamber.

They even specifically invited professionals from Futu for the design, given Futu’s long-standing history and rich experience in constructing chambers.

Xiao Zheng sat down cross-legged, placing the three boxes before him, and first took out the Red Blood Ginseng.

From the previous night’s healing, most of his external injuries had healed, but there were still many hidden injuries that needed time and care to remove. Since Xiao Zheng was preparing for a breakthrough, he needed to resolve these issues first, making the Red Blood Ginseng his best choice.

Bang!

Just putting it in his mouth, Xiao Zheng felt the Red Blood Ginseng release a vast medicinal power, which, without waiting for him to react, turned into a torrent, rushing down his throat and spreading throughout his body.

"Such immense power!"

Xiao Zheng felt calm inside.

Soon, he let out a muffled groan. The vast medicinal power surged into his body, releasing intensely hot energy that moved within him like magma. Xiao Zheng even seemed to hallucinate that his insides were being scorched by the heat.

Xiao Zheng could only marvel silently. It’s truly worthy of being infused with Supreme Yang Power, as the effect is indeed astonishing.

He then collected his thoughts and began focusing on refining the medicinal power. Under the guidance of his will, Gang Qi, and his meridians and organs, started to emit strong attraction, as if opening wide and sucking in.

Under this force, the vast medicinal power gradually integrated into every minute structure of Xiao Zheng’s body, thoroughly merging with it.

This state persisted for a long time, and suddenly, with a thundering boom, countless cracks appeared inside Xiao Zheng’s body. These cracks seemed small but were quite gruesome, resembling horrific wounds.

They ran through every part of Xiao Zheng’s interior, emerging from deep within his body.

Xiao Zheng, already possessing the ability to observe internally, couldn’t help but reveal a surprised look upon witnessing this. He hadn’t anticipated having so many hidden injuries within his body!

Upon reflection, Xiao Zheng realized that these hidden injuries might not only be from this time but accumulated from past battles. Indeed, Xiao Zheng had survived so many life-and-death battles that he’d lost count.

Realizing this, Xiao Zheng’s eyes reflected admiration. Truly, the gifts from the Four Great Sanctuaries are treasures, as their vast medicinal power could activate dormant internal injuries.

This was excellent news; healing these hidden injuries would stabilize his foundation, significantly increasing his chances of advancing to higher realms of Martial Arts.

With this thought, Xiao Zheng gathered his focus completely, starting to heal the hidden injuries. Even though the vast medicinal power surged like magma, causing discomfort, it was healing, so Xiao Zheng gritted his teeth and endured.

This continued for two full hours. With a sudden, resounding crash from within, all hidden injuries vanished, and the Red Blood Ginseng’s medicinal power was depleted.

Xiao Zheng’s lips curled into a smile of delight, only for that delight to swiftly turn to unusual concern, as a peculiar transformation occurred within a part of his body.

Shooting skyward, as if it could pierce through the clouds!

Xiao Zheng was troubled by this.

With no women around to help resolve this issue, what could he do?

Left with no options, Xiao Zheng turned his attention to the Eight Treasure Purple Lotus. Ruan Qingfeng mentioned that this plant could calm the mind and prevent one from going awry, though he wondered if it would help in this situation.

With a "nothing to lose" mindset, Xiao Zheng consumed the Eight Treasure Purple Lotus, instantly feeling a refreshing coolness permeate his entire body.
