However, the leather armor belonged to prohibited items, so Xu Qing had Sergeant Zhang make it in the style of a robe. In truth, it was actually a piece of leather armor, but in appearance, it could also be called a robe.
With this Black Fox Robe, Xu Qing’s defensive capabilities naturally increased considerably.
Besides that, Xu Qing also had a fox tail and a hind leg bone. Su Lianqing suggested he keep them for crafting Magic Artifacts in the future.
Xu Qing wasn’t surprised that the Black Fox Robe was delivered on ti because he had accumulated a strand of Qi Fortune energy, deciding to consu it after exploring the caves tonight.
Once the Qi Fortune energy was depleted, it could resolve disasters and increase the likelihood of obtaining opportunities. The tily arrival of the robe clearly was the result of so invisible fortune protecting him, which should further reduce the danger of his mountain venture and greatly raise his hopes of obtaining opportunities.
Also, his current Qi Fortune didn’t show any new ominous black energy, which also suggests, from another perspective, that there are no significant perils in this trip.
This could be considered another form of seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster.
But it also requires personal effort, it’s not simply handed to him.
Xu Qing asked Xu Fu to step back, lit a fire basin, and then began testing the robe near the fire, finding no obvious burning sensation; he gradually beca bolder and finally concluded.
This Black Fox Robe, indeed has a fire-resistant effect.
He didn’t just randomly try; last ti when he saw the Three-tailed Black Fox stamp out the fire without its fur being damaged, he had a hunch, and the result confird his suspicion was correct.
Moreover, when Sergeant Zhang made the robe, Xu Qing specifically asked to include materials that are fire-resistant, and the threads used were hair from the Three-tailed Black Fox.
In fact, in the previous dynasty, a type of fire-resistant garnt called Fire Washing Clothes was popular, but that fabric did irreversible damage to one’s lungs, so it gradually disappeared from history.
At present, the Powerful circle in the Great Yu Court still favors rain capes made from palm fiber.
Palm fiber is a rare material, mostly from Overseas, which also leads to a lot of pirates smuggling palm fiber in the Southeastern Land since the profit is so vast.
Wearing these capes mainly acts as rain protection. Hence, the Powerful like to wear them on rainy days while boating, appearing rather graceful.
But water-resistant items definitely lack the impressiveness of Xu Qing’s fire-resistant Black Fox Robe.
Xu Qing still had so fox fur left and planned to make another fox robe. With the habits of the Great Yu Court’s Powerful, who knows if it may co in handy in the future.

Qixia Mountain, Black Wind Village.
"Welco back, Great Commander, from your retreat."
King Lin erged from his ditation chamber, his skin more lustrous and crystalline than before while his head was entirely smooth.
Of course, that wasn’t because he had renounced the world and beco a Monk, but because he finally stepped into the Refining Internal Realm, with his Qi-Blood reaching a new level.
Hair is an extension of Qi-Blood.
After perfecting the Giant Spirit Mysterious Skill, King Lin intentionally reined in his Qi-Blood, which consequently led to his hair falling out.
Of course, regrowing it wouldn’t be difficult, but it would be a waste of Qi-Blood.
As one gets older, one learns to conserve.
After entering the Refining Internal Realm, King Lin renewed himself, and the internal injuries caused from fighting the Three-tailed Black Fox started healing after entering the Refining Organ Realm.
Also, the old concealed injuries from his earlier years began disappearing during this process.
The Refining Internal Realm is also a sign of reaching the Hua Realm in Martial Arts.
Only a Martial Artist who has refined their organs can unleash the Hua strength.
The so-called Hua strength ans that any part of the body can emit a strength that surpasses the visible Bright Strength—what’s known in Martial Arts as the Cloth Touching Eighteen Falls is rely an expression of Hua strength.
Of course, King Lin has just stepped into the Hua Realm, and it will take a considerable ti of Cultivation to reach the Great Achievent Realm where Dark Strength pervades his entire body.
This demands a careful and ticulous effort, a process of "Spirit and Body Integration."
Because having Dark Strength throughout the whole body equates to "Spirit and Body Integration."
At this stage, one’s Divine Soul and body are incredibly closely bonded, allowing for free mobilization of every muscle and bone throughout the body...
Additionally, with the Divine Soul fused into the body to reach "Spirit and Body Integration," one can see the Divine Soul with naked eyes and react more swiftly.
Even though King Lin is only at the initial stage of "Spirit and Body Integration," he can still see his Divine Soul with the naked eye.
It’s undeniable that his reaching this Realm is not only due to the essence of the Three-tailed Black Fox’s flesh and blood but also related to the process of capturing the creature.
For a Martial Artist, every dangerous battle stimulates one’s potential.
The more intense the fight, the more it can enhance one’s Martial Arts Cultivation.
In this fighting process, one’s Martial Arts naturally amalgamate into a single entity.
"Entering the Refining Internal Realm is rely a new starting point towards the Martial Saint Realm, but at least I have that qualification now," thought King Lin, feeling fortunate. If it had happened three to five years later, even if he had successfully killed the Three-tailed Black Fox, he might not have been able to step into the Refining Internal Realm to renew and refine his Qi-Blood.
This is a new beginning, and it offers him endless future possibilities.
If one day he becos a Martial Saint, then even among thousands of soldiers, he could move freely. Not to ntion establishing a kingdom Overseas, or even becoming the dominant force in a remote region of the Great Yu, he might have the chance to achieve it.
Why is it not certain? That’s because it is said that there are only four Martial Saints in the world today.
The Great Yu Court possesses two of them.
A Martial Saint can live past a hundred without a decline in fighting strength—although not as enduring as in their pri, they can even live to be over 120 years old.
The most valuable trait is that a Martial Saint can avoid the suffering of old age and disease, foretelling their death accurately, not living in constant fear of one day not waking up from sleep.
This precision is not the sa thing as a temple Monk predicting their death date.
When temple masters predict their death dates, it’s ant to deceive the gullible. In reality, when that day cos, even if the master himself doesn’t depart, his disciples will ensure he passes away.
