A heart-wrenching roar came from He Qingge’s small courtyard.
He had never thought that the Blood Burning Technique would be so painful. Even with his tough endurance, he had to scream in pain.
It was a pain that seeped deep into his bones and blood.
This level-two spell was a bit of a scam.
If someone only learned it and did not use it in advance because they were afraid of wasting their blood essence but suddenly used it in a battle with others, they would suffer heavy injuries.
As He Qingge screamed in pain, his face turned ferocious. Veins popped out, and his muscles bulged.
His body had been strengthened in all aspects, whether it was his physical fitness or the amount of spiritual power in his body.
He endured the pain in his body and tried to increase his physical fitness and speed.
With a normal punch, the number displayed on the huge rock on the stage was
1.5 times that of his previous number.
The stage was built in He Qingge’s courtyard. It was the benefit of a legacy disciple. Everyone had their own stage, and it was quite functional.
He tested it out and found that his speed had also increased 0.3 to 0.5 times.
One should not underestimate this seemingly small increase. The difference was still very huge. He could still beat his previous self.
The spiritual energy in his body was sufficient for sword kinesis flight, and he was also faster.
The most important thing was the escape technique that came with the Blood Burning Technique. After using it, the speed limit would increase far beyond his other methods.
It could be said to be a divine escape technique.
It was indeed a pretty good life-saving method.
In the time it took for an incense stick to burn, He Qingge’s body withered. He was extremely weak, and half of the blood essence in his body had been burned.
He Qingge was not so bold during his first time cultivating. He did not want to test his limits and burn himself out completely.
His weak body slumped to the ground, his expression rather ugly. His entire body looked shriveled, and his skin had lost its former luster.
The side effects were really huge. He Qingge felt that every move he made was quite painful.
If he could not escape within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he would probably only be waiting for death.
However, if the escape technique of the Blood Burning Technique could not let him escape, it meant that the difference in strength was too great.
“Master, Master…” Lil Butterfly called out worriedly.
“Don’t worry about me. Just protect me. Do you see that? I’m setting an example for you. Cultivating to become stronger is all about risking your life. I don’t need you to work so hard, but you must have this spirit.”
At this time, He Qingge still did not forget to feed Lil Butterfly a bowl of chicken soup.
Lil Butterfly was shocked.
Was this guy really its master?
He looked to be in so much pain!
However, it still obediently hovered in the air and guarded vigilantly.
He Qingge began to circulate the Innumerable Calamity Undying True Body. All the damage he suffered turned into the power of calamity, repairing and strengthening his body.
Every time he cultivated, he could not help but sigh. What kind of person created such a powerful cultivation technique? It did not conform to the subjective sense of energy conservation at all.
It should be because his current cultivation was still too low, and his horizons were limited.
The Innumerable Calamity Undying True Body was a martial arts technique, but it transformed all the calamities he could withstand into nutrients to strengthen his physique.
His physique had been strengthened, and it was easy to understand why he had broken through to the seventh level of Body Refinement.
Now that he was circulating the Innumerable Calamity Undying True Body, he was able to convert the damage inflicted by the Blood Burning Technique into nutrients. He Qingge’s physique was slowly strengthening again.
In He Qingge’s small courtyard, painful howls could be heard from time to time.
Even if he did it many times, he still could not endure the pain that seeped into his bones.
He Qingge suddenly thought about combining this howl with the Berating technique.
Would it be even stronger?
The intense pain caused by Blood Burning Technique, the explosive sound of intimidation, and the Berating technique would rapidly expand one’s strength. The opponent would be intimidated and quickly attack to turn the tables.
The idea was good. He Qingge understood that after the Blood Burning Technique was activated, if he did not turn the tables and defeat his opponent, then only death awaited him.
After three months of repeated self-torture, He Qingge finally broke through to the eighth level of Body Refinement.
However, his Qi Refinement cultivation still did not improve much.
‘If only this cultivation method could also increase my Qi Refinement cultivation,’ He Qingge thought greedily.
He Qingge stopped after breaking through to the eighth level. If he continued to cultivate like this, He Qingge wondered if he would awaken some special hobby.
“Senior Brother, Zhang Jianqiang is dead!”
The manager of the Merit Room of the Imperial Beast Peak’s outer sect, Li Le, was at the late-stage of the Qi Refinement Realm. His exact cultivation level was unknown.
This was a good friend of his when he was still a servant disciple.
Now, they were still in contact with each other. In fact, all of his friends from before had even attached themselves to He Qingge, naturally forming a force.
They would collect a lot of information about He Qingge’s cultivation. At that time, they could not tell his exact cultivation level, but now, they could tell that he was in the late stage of the Qi Refinement Realm, probably at the eighth level.
He Qingge suddenly felt a little absent-minded. The name Zhang Jianqiang felt a little ancient.
It had only been a year, but why did it feel like a lifetime had passed?
“What happened?”
“I heard that he learned of his brother’s death and originally wanted to ask you about it. However, at that time, you weren’t in the sect as you were participating in the assessment. When you returned, you had already become a legacy disciple, so he was so scared that he retreated.
“However, he heard that their ancestors have a special mark on their bloodline descendants, so he investigated.
“He quickly prepared his equipment and set off in a hurry.
“After that, he never came back. According to the rumors, his father learned of this news and went to take revenge in a rage.
“His father should be at the half-step Foundation Establishment Realm. He’s simply terrifying.”
He Qingge’s eyes flickered.
The so-called half-step Foundation Establishment Realm still did not reach the range of the Foundation Establishment Realm, but a cultivator’s strength would far exceed that of ordinary peak Qi Refinement Realm.
They were all people who had tried to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm many times without success. However, through special methods, they had preserved a portion of their strength during the final breakthrough.
However, such people had also lost the path to advancement. Their path was cut off from then on, and they could no longer break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Zhang Jianqiang found the mark, he chased after it. After he died, his father chased after him and died as well.
Who did they pursue?
He Qingge naturally knew about Wan Wan’s Heavenly Demon Charm Body. After all, Zhang Jianchi was killed by Wan Wan, so the mark should be on her body.
However, this was too magical.
When he left Wan Wan, he made her abolish her cultivation and re-cultivate.
He only taught her the Qi cultivation technique and did not even teach her any protective spells.
How long had it been?
She had the ability to kill a person at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm, and even a person at the half-step of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This cultivation speed was too terrifying!
“Oh, how did the other members of the Zhang family react?” He Qingge smiled. No matter what, their deaths were good news.
“The Zhang family’s ancestor is in seclusion. He has been in seclusion for several years without any news of coming out.
“As for the other branches of the Zhang family, those who don’t have the strength naturally don’t want to fight. Those who have the strength want to command others to fight..”
