Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Once the True Qi can no longer suppress the Wood Snake Seal, then the Mu Family members will be able to sense his exact location.

And Su Changkong, without saying anything else, possesses the 8th realm Giant Whale Skill + 9th realm Turtle Breath Technique, which undoubtedly means he has robust True Qi!

“Join us at Blood Smoke Tower, and a mere Mu Family cannot harm you. Within Blood Smoke Tower, you can also gain better conditions for growth,” Blood Thirteen said, inviting Su Changkong once again to join Blood Smoke Tower.

“What price would I have to pay?” Su Changkong countered. He did not believe there were free lunches in the world; Blood Smoke Tower was no place of benevolence, expecting something in return for everything.

“Follow orders, execute missions, and never betray!” Blood Thirteen said succinctly, yet Su Changkong deciphered quite a bit from those few words.

To join Blood Smoke Tower meant essentially losing one’s freedom, obliged to carry out missions periodically assigned by Blood Smoke Tower, and one could imagine that these missions were mostly not going to be easy, would involve risking one’s life, and the prohibition against betrayal likely involved control methods beyond mere words, similar to the Black Lotus Sect’s Poison Pills!

Otherwise, in all these years, hardly any major errors had occurred within Blood Smoke Tower.

Su Changkong did not wish for this; once he joined Blood Smoke Tower, it would mean he no longer had control over his own fate and everything would be under the dominance of Blood Smoke Tower. This was something Su Changkong greatly detested!

Su Changkong did not have such trust in Blood Smoke Tower. His prior agreement to accept a commission from Blood Smoke Tower was reversible, at worst failing to receive compensation.

But once he joined Blood Smoke Tower, there would be no way out at all! No amount of resources or benefits promised by Blood Smoke Tower were enough to tempt Su Changkong.

Moreover, it would probably not be difficult for the Mu Family to find out that the killer of Huangfu Honglang and Mu Jin had connections with Blood Smoke Tower. Should the Mu Family apply pressure or propose lucrative deals for a trade with Blood Smoke Tower, it couldn’t be guaranteed that they wouldn’t hand him over.

“Thank you for all the information. Joining Blood Smoke Tower… I need to carefully consider it,” Su Changkong replied, turning down Blood Thirteen’s offer with tact.

Su Changkong’s refusal was unexpected to Blood Thirteen. Though his tone was still calm, there was now a hint of surprise in his voice, “Have you thought it through? Many clients desperately seek to take commissions from Blood Smoke Tower just to showcase their abilities, hoping to join Blood Smoke Tower. Once inside, you have access to Divine Weapon Secret Manuscripts, Pills, Spiritual Medicines—everything. It’s basically a ticket to becoming a powerful figure, and the cultivation you receive won’t be any less than that of those prestigious family scions!”

By rejecting Blood Smoke Tower, Su Changkong was turning down an opportunity to soar to great heights; it was rare for Blood Thirteen to personally invite someone to join Blood Smoke Tower! Not only that, but Su Changkong would then have to face the threat from the Mu Family alone!

“Thank you for the offer,” Su Changkong simply shook his head, not elaborating further, for he was not willing to entrust his safety to others.

“Then it’s as you wish. Good luck,” having heard the response, Blood Thirteen did not persist further, understanding in his heart that this ‘Bull Demon King’ before him was probably not very old; otherwise, he would have known what a precious opportunity he was declining!

Their Blood Smoke Tower’s foundations were certainly not inferior to those of millennium-old prestigious families.

“Farewell then.”

Su Changkong did not stay long; after saying a word to Blood Thirteen, he turned and left. Watching Su Changkong’s departing figure, Blood Thirteen’s silhouette also disappeared into the darkness, perhaps for the last time they would see each other.

“Successfully obtained the Dragon Blood Pill Recipe and learned some relevant information about the Wood Snake Seal. It’s a worthwhile gain!”

As he walked, Su Changkong mused quietly to himself.

He meticulously checked the pill recipe and the token for any tracking methods before burying the Blood Smoke Tower’s token under a large tree in the mountains.

Having declined the invitation from Blood Smoke Tower, Su Changkong had to face the threat from the Mu Family on his own.

In reality, the situation was not as severe as imagined; Su Changkong only needed to continue suppressing with True Qi, and the Mu Family members would only be able to sense a rough location. He could simply hide in a crowded place for a year or half, until the Wood Snake Seal naturally dissipated.

Rather than join Blood Smoke Tower and have his safety controlled by others, Su Changkong preferred to rely on his own strength to cope!

By a river’s edge, Su Changkong carefully washed his body and belongings, changed into a set of clean clothes, and then headed back to Dafeng State City.

“Where is the most populous place in Dafeng State City… and not easy for outsiders to probe…”

As Su Changkong pondered this, his plan was simple: find a crowded place to live incognito for a year or half, until the Wood Snake Seal on him disappeared, then he no longer needed to worry about the Mu Family threat and would be as free as a fish leaping into the vast ocean!

“Huh? What’s causing such a commotion?”

Walking on the streets of Dafeng State City, Su Changkong aimlessly wandered while his mind was elsewhere. Suddenly he heard some noise ahead, prompting his curiosity.

Following the sound, he soon came upon a wide open space surrounded by throngs of people, easily in the thousands, including old folks and children, most of whom wore expressions of excitement and curiosity.

“Gentlemen! Those who wish to join the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, come over here to register and test. This opportunity comes only once a year for two days!”

From within the crowd, a robust voice rang out, originating from a man clad in black armor, accompanied by fully armed soldiers maintaining order around them.

“The Dafeng Iron Cavalry is recruiting?”
