"Rumble..."

With just a single gesture, the hundred-zhang high mountain wall collapsed with a crash.

Especially where the True Qi hit, a pit more than ten meters deep was blasted into the mountain itself.

"How powerful."

Jiang Qin watched in amazement.

Although her cultivation was very low, in the face of absolute power, she could still feel that indescribable sense of oppression.

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the collapsed mountain, his gaze showing a slight regret.

"My True Qi is dense, more than five times sharper than before entering the mountain, and even carries flames, but it seems I still haven't fully stepped into the God Realm."

"Just Half-step Refining God..."

"This..."

"I clearly feel my True Qi is strong, so why is it still lacking?"

His eyes showed regret.

The gentle voice of Susu echoed in his mind.

"Husband, don't rush. At this moment, your True Qi, physique, and Divine Thought have all reached the Refining God Realm, but your state of mind is still lacking."

"The biggest difference between the Refining God Realm and the Qi Transformation Realm is the method of attack."

"In the Qi Transformation Realm, one needs to actively mobilize the internal True Qi, but in the Refining God Realm, after strengthening the Divine Thought, it uses one's True Qi as a guide to mobilize the Divine Thought and draw upon the surrounding world energy to attack the opponent."

"What you lack now is the comprehension of the surrounding world forces, needing an opportunity. As long as your mind successfully draws upon the world energy at a certain moment, you will naturally enter the Refining God Realm."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan understood.

"It seems that cultivation is indeed not an easy task."

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan seemed to sense something and turned to look outside the valley.

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Qin was a bit confused.

Zhang Xiaoshan said.

"Someone's coming."

As soon as he spoke, several strong lights shot in from outside the valley.

"Step, step, step..."

Soon, a group of a dozen people rushed in.

They seemed to be a search and rescue team.

"Someone's here..."

"There really is someone..."

The strong light swept over to Zhang Xiaoshan and Jiang Qin.

The group quickly ran towards the two of them.

"Who are you, and what happened here?"

Someone dressed in firefighter gear came forward to ask.

Before Jiang Qin could speak, Zhang Xiaoshan said.

"We came into the mountains for tourism, accidentally lost our way, and got trapped here..."

"Zhang Xiaoshan?"

A voice from the crowd sounded uncertain.

This voice sounded familiar.

Zhang Xiaoshan was also a little stunned.

"It really is you."

A woman in a white down jacket walked out of the crowd and approached Zhang Xiaoshan, looking surprised and delighted.

Journalist Bai Shutong.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing Bai Shutong suddenly appear in front of him, Zhang Xiaoshan was also full of surprise.

Bai Shutong was a journalist from Qin Province, how did she end up here with the search and rescue team?

Bai Shutong explained.

"A major accident happened here, a mountain collapse, and some supernatural rumors, which have attracted a lot of national attention. I'm here to report on it... you..."

She was about to show concern for Zhang Xiaoshan but her gaze caught Jiang Qin standing to one side.

As the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, the biggest family in Taiwan, Jiang Qin's presence was naturally ethereal, coupled with her beautiful and charming appearance and figure, she could easily be called a fairy.

At this moment, the eyes of the search and rescue team members were also fixed on Jiang Qin.

"So beautiful."

"Yeah, such a beautiful woman is rare."

Having lost all her guards and having narrowly escaped death, Jiang Qin was already a frightened bird, and being stared at by so many unfamiliar men made her even more fearful.

"Miracle Doctor Zhang, I'm scared."

Jiang Qin instinctively leaned towards Zhang Xiaoshan, hugging his arm, shivering, looking really pitiful.

"Hmph."

The concern on Bai Shutong's face instantly dropped, and she let out a cold snort.

"Miracle Doctor Zhang, you really have good fortune with women. Where did you meet this delicate beauty?"

"And still have the leisure to come here for tourism, tsk tsk tsk..."

Although she had long said she wouldn't interfere in Zhang Xiaoshan's romantic affairs, her ambiguous relationship with Zhang Xiaoshan made her a bit jealous at this moment.

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Bai Shutong's angry expression and couldn't help but find it amusing.

"Things aren't as you think, I'll explain it to you later."

Bai Shutong rolled her eyes, saying bitterly.

"I'm not your wife, so why would I need your explanation? But Sister Zhong Ying, she's your official girlfriend, waiting alone at home for you, yet you're here with another woman gallivanting around. If Senior Sister Zhong Ying found out, she'd be very upset."

"I wanted to show some concern for you, but it seems your life is quite comfortable."

As she spoke, Bai Shutong's eyes turned red as if she had suffered a great grievance, and she turned around and walked away.

"Sigh..."

Zhang Xiaoshan sighed and followed with Jiang Qin.

The search and rescue team didn't think much of it.

The mountain collapse in front of them was just assumed to be an aftershock, after all, no one could have imagined it was caused by human power.

Everyone returned to the campsite together.

After eating some simple food, it was already past nine.

Bai Shutong was writing her article in her tent.

Part of the search and rescue team went out to continue the search, while others stayed behind.

Zhang Xiaoshan and Jiang Qin were mistakenly assumed to be a couple and were arranged to share a tent.

"Miracle Doctor Zhang, you and that Journalist Bai seem to know each other, and it seems your relationship is not simple?"

Jiang Qin wasn't a fool, she had already picked up on some things.

Zhang Xiaoshan didn't hide it, as there really was no need.

He nodded.

Jiang Qin immediately showed a look of guilt.

"Then, did she misunderstand our relationship and cause trouble for you?"

Having lost all her guards, trapped in the mountains, and saved by Zhang Xiaoshan, she was very cautious in her attitude towards him now.

Zhang Xiaoshan said calmly.

"Don't worry, she won't bother with these matters. You should rest early."

"Oh, then you should go comfort her, I'll be fine alone."

Zhang Xiaoshan thought for a moment, exited Jiang Qin's tent, and walked towards Bai Shutong's tent.

Unexpectedly, another effortful battle awaited him.
