[Attention, this is the equivalent of today’s two Chapters, I rged them into one Chapter to post.
Today is New Year’s Eve, it’s good to rge rather than divide.
Happy New Year to everyone!]
[I set it to auto-update at eight in the morning, but after waking up I found it was blocked. The system said I wrote so prohibited words...
After checking, I quickly modified it and then republished.
Unfortunately, the few cheeky lines I wrote were deleted and you guys won’t get to see them...]

Chapter 70[More Money, More Risk]
In the training room on the basent level of the villa.
Chen Yan sat cross-legged in ditation, practicing the Primordial Qi Transport Technique several tis and then the Finger Sword technique a few more tis.
He was already very proficient in gathering Primordial Qi. With just a thought, it could rapidly condense at his fingertips, forming a line and then bursting forth.
After practicing this Finger Sword technique for a few days, Chen Yan tried executing it with his current level of Primordial Qi Cultivation and found that if he exerted himself, he could pierce through a piece of blue stone strip!
This power was already comparable to a bullet.
However, at this intensity, Chen Yan could only perform the Finger Sword three tis at most; any more and it was impossible.
The problem wasn’t that the Primordial Qi was insufficient, but that his fingers couldn’t bear the strain.
After all, he was still made of flesh and blood, and there was a limit to the effectiveness of Essence Nourishing on the body. It couldn’t truly transform his body into sothing as hard as iron.
After attempting a full-power Finger Sword for the third ti, his fingers started to swell and there was a faint, sharp pain.
After so thought, Chen Yan decided to ask Gu Qingyi for help, humbled himself, and sought her guidance.
When Gu Qingyi ca downstairs, she was holding a freshly washed apple, the twenty-one-year-old Consort Mother was munching on it. She glanced at Chen Yan’s swollen fingers and shook her head, "You’re not doing it wrong; the issue is that your body is too weak."
Chen Yan wasn’t soone who rigidly adhered to the past.
If one finger could only be used three tis...
Well, he had ten fingers after all!
Couldn’t he just rotate them?
So over the next few days, with nothing better to do, Chen Yan tried modifying the Primordial Qi flow paths for the Finger Sword from the index finger to the thumb, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger...
Gu Qingyi was sowhat surprised by Chen Yan’s ingenuity upon learning of his attempts.
"The technique you created must have been passed down for many generations. Could it be that no one ever thought of this before?" Chen Yan was a bit curious.
Gu Qingyi shook her head, "Those who practice Cultivation Combat Techniques have bodies much stronger than yours. We don’t have the worry of our fingers not being able to handle the strain."
Saying this, Gu Qingyi casually broke a piece of blue stone strip with her hands in front of Chen Yan, then lightly crushed a piece of blue stone into powder!
Chen Yan looked at her small, white, and tender hands and subconsciously swallowed—when she took him flying using her Body Technique, he distinctly felt that her hands were soft and tender...
However, as a twenty-two-year-old illegitimate son, it wasn’t appropriate to keep staring at the hands of the twenty-one-year-old Consort Mother.
Chen Yan quickly averted his gaze and casually said, "It’s not that they couldn’t think of it because they don’t experience finger pain, but because their minds are rigid! Once I figure this thod out, all five fingers can freely execute the Finger Sword... do you know a kind of martial art called..."
"You’re talking about the Six ridian Divine Sword?" Gu Qingyi tilted her head, thought for a mont, then quickly said it.
This ti it was Chen Yan’s turn to be surprised, "How do you know about it? Have you been reading novels online these past few days?"
Gu Qingyi’s tone was calm, "You think the Domain Realm is so isolated? Or do you think that people from the Domain Realm know nothing about your world?"
"What do you an?"
Gu Qingyi said, "I’ve told you, there are passages between the two worlds. These passages, opened by Arrays, traverse between the World Walls. Although it’s not easy to cross, occasionally people from the Domain Realm co to your world."
Chen Yan’s expression beca more serious, "What do people from the Domain Realm want in our world?"
Gu Qingyi looked deeply into Chen Yan’s eyes, "Though your world is not suitable for cultivation and has scarce cultivation resources, you are fortunate to have a peaceful world. This world... is very comfortable."
"What do you an?"
"They co to collect so new and interesting things from your world and take them back," Gu Qingyi said in a low voice. "So have also thought about finding special weapons to use for combat... although people in your world can’t cultivate and are individually weak, your technology is advanced."
Chen Yan frowned, "You an people from the Domain Realm co to our world to get technological products, like... weapons?"
"Sothing like that," Gu Qingyi made a gunshot gesture. "For example, so people from our side have taken back so of your hot weapons to replicate, but unfortunately, gunpowder’s power is too small. Moreover, it seems like the world’s rules suppress it. Gunpowder in the Domain Realm loses over tenfold of its power and is only useful for fireworks."
Chen Yan sneered, "Just firearms? You might not know, but there is a weapon with much greater power in our world..."
"You an nuclear weapons?" Gu Qingyi shook her head, "No use. My third uncle ca to this world many years ago and went to that country in the north. He stole a nuclear warhead to study, but he was very disappointed."
Chen Yan’s mouth twitched... stealing a nuclear warhead?!
He frowned and asked, "What was he disappointed about?"
"He said sothing about fission and so kind of reaction that couldn’t happen in our world, so... it’s useless."
