Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises-Chapter 325 - 139: Cultivation Technique Improvement (3)
Although he hasn’t figured it out yet, he already has a clue.
Originally, in order to research a way to freely operate and halt the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, he gained some insights into the Blood Boiling Secret Skill and the Reversed Chaos Forbidden Skill.
Now, having learned the Qianyuan Skill, he could discover many mysteries by comparing different cultivation techniques.
The most crucial thing is.
Lin Zheyu, in researching and improving cultivation techniques, doesn’t need to be as wary as ordinary people.
He just has to ensure that the cultivation technique can be practiced and that it won’t kill anyone.
The various harms to the body during cultivation and the potential powerful side effects don’t matter.
This greatly reduced the difficulty of improving the cultivation technique for him.
As long as the technique can be practiced, it can be as straightforward and brutal as possible.
The night grew deep.
Lin Zheyu didn’t continue researching.
He simply washed up, returned to his room, sat cross-legged, and activated the Turtle Breath Skill, entering a deep sleep.
In this state, his body’s and spirit’s recovery speed would be much faster.
In the courtyard, he secretly set up many mechanisms. If someone broke in, poison would be released, and an alert device would be triggered.
He wouldn’t have to worry about being approached while in deep sleep without knowing.
...
...
Morning.
The sky was just getting light.
The residents of Wuling City were already up and starting their day of work and life.
As the first golden rays of sunlight scattered, two women walked out of Wuling City together.
Liang Yunhui looked at the bustling scene with an innocent and charming smile on her face.
She had already put behind the sadness of not finding her father.
After all, she had never seen her father since she was young; the sadness was only because a long-held expectation of over ten years had fallen through, and emotions surged for a moment.
Failing to find Su Xinlin, Liang Yuhan completely let go of the notion.
She planned to take her daughter to Shuiyun Palace in Pingyang City, to let her take the entrance examination of Shuiyun Palace and become a disciple there.
With Liang Yunhui’s talent and aptitude, it shouldn’t be a problem.
However, the journey from Wuling City to Shuiyun Palace was very far; Liang Yuhan contacted a merchant convoy and planned to set off with them.
The departure time was still early, with more than ten days to go.
"Mom, after we finish our tasks, let’s go for a walk in the mountains. We might run into Xiaohei."
"Look, this is the bamboo whistle that Mr. Zhao gave me before. As long as Xiaohei hears the whistle, it will come out."
Liang Yunhui played with the bamboo whistle, speaking excitedly.
"No way."
"This place is not like Bafang City; the mountains and forests here are very dangerous."
Liang Yuhan said calmly, refusing Liang Yunhui’s request.
After experiencing many dangers, she had become much more cautious now.
"Oh..."
Disappointment appeared on Liang Yunhui’s face as she tucked the bamboo whistle into her bosom.
In low spirits, she followed behind Liang Yuhan, accompanying her to the nearby marketplace.
Before setting off with the merchant convoy, they needed to purchase ox carts, horses, and supplies, which were generally outside the city.
The main purpose of their outing this time was to familiarize themselves with Wuling City’s marketplace and do some reconnaissance ahead of time.
After wandering around to familiarize themselves with the nearby market and where to buy things, the two found a restaurant to rest.
By noon, the restaurant was extremely lively.
"..."
"An Ink Fox has appeared at Celestial Blade Peak, and those three young masters from the Lu Family, Tang Family, and Ji Family have taken a lot of people into the mountain for a hunt."
"I heard they’re betting on who can catch the Ink Fox first, it’s quite the event."
"Want to go take a look later?"
A martial artist in the restaurant said with a smile.
"What’s there to see in that spectacle? The phenomenon of Celestial Blade Peak’s knife intent is about to appear, and it only happens a few days each year."
"If you can comprehend even a bit of the knife intent, it would greatly enhance your prowess."
"I plan to get there early to grab a good spot, otherwise, if I’m late, there won’t be a chance." his companion across the table replied.
"Not going, not going."
"Is that knife intent something we can comprehend?"
"For so long, no one has been seen comprehending anything from it, going there is just a waste of time, might as well join the fun."
"Someone set up a betting game over there, and I plan to place a bet that Tang Family’s young master, Tang Ziqiu, will win."
The muscular man with a bald head to the left sneered.
"..."
There were many martial artists in the restaurant, and quite a few were discussing matters related to Celestial Blade Peak.
On Celestial Blade Peak, every mid-June, a formidable and unmatched knife intent appears.
The knife intent hangs high over Celestial Blade Peak, exuding a terrifying pressure, like the majestic power of the Heavenly Dao.
The Celestial Blade Peak is thus named.
Every June, Celestial Blade Peak becomes a hot topic, and the appearance of Xiaohei is just a part of it.
However, with many martial artists around, discussions about Xiaohei were not uncommon either.
As Liang Yunhui and her mother passed by, they overheard many martial artists discussing.
"Hello, may I ask, the Ink Fox you mentioned, is it a plump beast, somewhat like a pig, yet also a bit like a fox?"
Liang Yunhui couldn’t help but ask the few people who were talking, as she seemed to hear someone discussing Xiaohei.
She had originally learned from the Lu Family about what kind of fierce beast Xiaohei was.
A few men, hearing this, looked over at Liang Yunhui and her mother.
Judging by their attire, these men should be local hunters.
"Not sure, I’ve never seen it," the man on the left said, looking at his companion, "Didn’t you inquire about it? Tell this young girl."
"I heard it’s indeed very plump, like a pig."
"What, have you seen that Ink Fox?" another man said with a grin.
"Yes, I’ve seen it."
"But back then, I didn’t know and thought it was just an ordinary fierce beast," Liang Yunhui said in a naive tone.
She had traveled south and north with her mother long enough to understand the dangers of the martial world, knowing that some things shouldn’t be said lightly.
"Haha!"
"I heard many hunters have seen it, all mistaking it for an ordinary fierce beast. It wasn’t until an older hunter encountered it that he recognized it as an Ink Fox."
The man laughed heartily.
"Thank you, seniors, for clearing up my doubts."
Liang Yunhui thanked them, then followed her mother to an empty table nearby.
As they walked away, her face began to look a bit grim, showing signs of distress and urgency.
"Mom, Xiaohei seems to have been targeted. Let’s go help it!" Liang Yunhui whispered anxiously.
"Sigh..."
Liang Yuhan looked at her anxious daughter and sighed helplessly.
Liang Yunhui was just too kind-hearted. She really worried that after Liang Yunhui entered Shuiyun Palace, she might be deceived or bullied. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
"We can’t save it by ourselves. Let’s go back and see if we can find Mr. Zhao," Liang Yuhan said softly.
She was self-aware and didn’t want to get involved.
Nor would she risk it for a fierce beast encountered on the road.
At most, Liang Yuhan would inform Mr. Zhao, and as for the result, it would depend on Mr. Zhao himself.
"Okay, okay."
"Then let’s hurry and leave. Mr. Zhao might be staying nearby," Liang Yunhui urged.
"Don’t rush, let’s eat first."
"That group of people was just watching us. Don’t make it too obvious, or they’ll suspect we know Xiaohei’s whereabouts."
Liang Yuhan whispered.
She called over the waiter as if nothing had happened and began to order food.
...
Night.
Wuling City lit up with thousands of lights.
"Haha, it’s done!"
On Nanming Street, a burst of laughter suddenly came from a courtyard at the corner.
Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness, a satisfied expression on his face.
The progress was slower than he had expected. He had been researching until nightfall before he figured out a way to tap into his body’s potential without burning Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
This was still with the help of his Golden Finger.
If it weren’t for being able to judge the feasibility of the improved Cultivation Technique by whether or not the corresponding data appeared in his consciousness,
it would take a long time to come up with it.
[Heavenly Dao rewards the diligent]
Name: Lin Zheyu
Source Power: 61
Skills:
Blood Boiling Secret Skill (Perfection)
Reversed Chaos Forbidden Skill (Perfection)
Qianyuan Skill·Modified (Not Initiated 0%)
Golden Swan Skill (Tenth Layer 100%)
Spiritual Mysterious Body Skill (Fifth Layer 100%)
In consciousness.
The original data of Qianyuan Skill disappeared, replaced by Qianyuan Skill·Modified.
The improvements to the Cultivation Technique were minor, mainly adding content to tap into the body’s potential at the beginning.
However, without the energy generated from burning Essence, Qi, and Spirit, Lin Zheyu estimated that he wouldn’t be able to tap into the full potential of his body in a short time.
The effect would also be much weaker.
"Let’s see how effective it is."
Lin Zheyu couldn’t wait to try.
He reached his hand into the wooden basin he had prepared earlier. After enhancing it once yesterday, there was still more than half the medicinal power left.
’Use one unit of Source Power to enhance Qianyuan Skill·Modified.’
The thought transmitted out, and Lin Zheyu felt a wave of dizziness, entering the familiar consciousness space.
