Yun Shan was not particularly clear about the connection between the Ye Family and Fu Yunshen.
After all, he and his two brothers had only started following Fu Yunshen midway, and they were not in the country during the years when Fu Yunshen went to the O continent.
So after he had heard about the Ye Family’s situation, he thought about reporting to Fu Yunshen.
Upon hearing Ying Zijin’s words, Yun Shan was stunned.
But his hands were faster than his mind, and he had already passed over the long box containing the golden and silver needles.
These were the newly customized golden and silver needles from the Ancient Medical Field that Fu Yunshen had specially ordered for Ying Zijin.
Just a dozen or so, and more than a billion had been spent.
After receiving them, Ying Zijin kept thinking about how she could earn back those billions.
She opened the long box and nodded, "Mr. Ye Changkong, I will help you become a grandmaster."
"Once you become a grandmaster, can the Ye Family crisis be resolved?"
"..."
The entire ancestral hall fell silent.
Ye Ling was somewhat dazed.
Not to mention Patriarch Ye, Ye Changkong was also shocked by this revelation.
Ye Changkong couldn’t help but ask, "Miss Ying, what do you mean?"
What does it mean to make him a grandmaster?
The Inner Strength of an ancient martial artist is a type of Qi Force that is born within the body.
This Qi Force is also present in the bodies of ordinary people, but only those with Ancient Martial Talent are able to use Ancient Martial Arts Secret Manuals to condense this Qi Force into Inner Strength.
It’s the movement of Inner Strength that allows ancient martial artists to far surpass ordinary people in speed, strength, lifespan, and other areas.
Once one reaches the status of an Ancient Martial Grandmaster, Inner Strength can be projected externally to shield the body, much like an iron wall.
It can perfectly defend against attacks from firearms and other modern weapons.
Unless the power of these weapons reaches the level of nuclear or atomic bombs, they simply cannot breach the defense of an Ancient Martial Grandmaster.
Even members of major clans who rely on medicinal herbs to build up their power cannot break through to the grandmaster level.
The reason why the O continent is wary of the Ancient Martial World is that even the top S-ranked mercenaries cannot match an Ancient Martial Grandmaster.
"Yes, you can become a grandmaster," Ying Zijin said, holding three golden needles in her hand, pondering before she continued, "But there’s one thing I need to make clear beforehand."
"I will use the Golden Needle to help you become a grandmaster, but once you become one, no matter how you cultivate afterward, you will not be able to make any further progress, and your lifespan will deplete much faster."
The lifespan of an Ancient Martial Grandmaster can reach more than two hundred years.
This is the drawback of this acupuncture technique.
Because it forcefully opens the meridians with External Force, it comes at the cost of sacrificing lifespan and consuming the body’s vital essence to increase Ancient Martial Cultivation.
Otherwise, if External Force could do everything, it would be unfair to those geniuses who rely on their own abilities to cultivate.
Ye Changkong took a deep breath, still unable to recover from his shock, "Miss Ying, can you really..."
He knew his Ancient Martial Talent was just the ordinary kind; he could never break through to Ancient Martial Grandmaster even if he exhausted his lifespan and devoted his entire life to it.
Ye Changkong did not hesitate at all.
He solemnly rose to his feet and cupped his fists toward the girl, "Good, please assist me, Miss Ying."
Ying Zijin nodded slightly, signaling Ye Changkong to sit cross-legged.
She inserted the golden needles into several of his key acupoints, then stimulated them with Inner Strength.
Ye Ling watched intently from the side, the more she watched, the more she felt enlightened.
Half an hour later, Ying Zijin finished administering the needles.
She leaned back in the chair, wiping sweat from her brow, her voice hoarse and slightly weak, "Yun Shan."
Yun Shan understood the cue, pulling out a gun and aiming it at Ye Changkong.
With a "bang," he pulled the trigger.
A silver bullet exploded out of the black muzzle, shooting straight towards Ye Changkong.
This pistol was also brand new from NOK forum’s trading area, with enormous destructive power, capable of instantly destroying a villa.
Both Ye Ling and Patriarch Ye’s expressions changed.
But the next second, they saw the bullet stop about three centimeters from Ye Changkong.
It could not move an inch closer.
Centred around the bullet, the Inner Strength vibrated the air, emitting a faint "buzzing" sound.
Ye Changkong suddenly opened his eyes, and as more formidable Inner Strength emerged, it completely shattered the bullet.
"Inner Strength manifested outwardly!" Patriarch Ye stared in disbelief, exclaiming, "Grandfather, Ancient Martial Grandmaster, you’ve really become an Ancient Martial Grandmaster!"
The Ye Family had produced an Ancient Martial Grandmaster!
Ye Changkong carefully felt the changes within his body and was instantly moved to tears, "Grandmaster, grandmaster..."
A level that so many ancient martial artists longed for, and he had broken through it in just half an hour.
"Miss Ying." Ye Changkong promptly knelt down and solemnly bowed three times to the girl, "The rebirth you granted the Ye Family today, Ye Changkong will never forget."
"Whatever you need, the entire Ye Family is willing to go through fire and water for you!"
"Don’t mention it," Ying Zijin pressed her forehead, "I want to sleep."
This acupuncture technique indeed consumed too much.
"Ye Ling, take Miss Ying to rest," Patriarch Ye immediately said, "No one must speak of today’s events, not anyone from the Ye Family either."
Ye Ling nodded solemnly, "Understood."
She and Yun Shan escorted Ying Zijin to the bedroom.
On the way, they encountered Ye Heng who had returned from outside.
Ying Zijin woke up in the afternoon. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
