Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises-Chapter 335 - 143: Qi and Blood Melting Furnace
Crackle~~
In the deep mountains, the bonfire made a crackling sound.
Lin Zheyu was roasting the beast Xiaohei had hunted back, the aroma of the meat spreading through the air.
After consuming that blood-red pill, the previously depleted spirit was restored.
However, compared to the pre-depletion state, it still fell short.
"This elixir should be used to reduce the physical and mental side effects when using life-or-death martial skills, while also enhancing their effects."
Lin Zheyu thought to himself.
The medicinal power in the elixir was indeed strong, but not overwhelmingly so. Its absorption speed was incredibly fast.
Unlike ordinary medicinal soups, which require several hours to slowly absorb and recover.
Simultaneously, the cool aura in the elixir had a rare effect on spiritual recovery. This was the first time Lin Zheyu had seen an elixir so miraculous for spiritual recovery.
"Regardless of past or present life, social circles are incredibly important."
"Elixirs like this blood-red one are not even sold at auctions, ordinary people have no chance to even come across them."
"I must quickly enhance my strength and then choose a powerful sect to join."
Lin Zheyu murmured.
There are a few ways to improve social circles.
First is the technique of reincarnation, which is innate, depending on fate.
Second is relying on friends, but making friends who will sincerely share their cultivation techniques and elixirs with you is difficult.
It might be easier to win over a rich girl, and Lin Zheyu was quite confident in his own appearance.
Third is joining them, becoming a disciple of a major force, or marrying into those powerful families.
Having pondered over it, Lin Zheyu felt that joining a strong sect would be more reliable.
He had no aspirations for the most top-tier forces.
These forces receive an overwhelming number of disciples seeking apprenticeships, and their selection criteria are extremely strict, mostly recruiting children under thirteen whose minds are not fully mature.
Even at the age of this body, Lin Zheyu was already eighteen, making him ineligible due to age.
He could only choose sects that were less strict with age requirements.
"Xiaohei, from now on you should explore the deep mountains, and don’t go near the cities where humans live."
While eating roasted meat, Lin Zheyu suddenly looked at Xiaohei and said.
Bringing Xiaohei here this time seemed to be a mistake.
Xiaohei’s fur was stained with a lot of blood.
The blood had already clotted, sticking to the fur, making it look pitiful and ragged.
Initially, he had brought Xiaohei all the way from Bafang City to the Central Plains, intending to let Xiaohei mix in the forests for a while.
Then, rely on its familiarity with the forests to hunt beasts and earn silver taels.
Now it seemed that this method wouldn’t work.
If Xiaohei were just an ordinary beast, not easily attracting the covet of family disciples, things might have been fine.
What Lin Zheyu didn’t expect was that Xiaohei was an Ink Fox, quite renowned among beasts.
As soon as it showed up, it would attract the hunts of many strong individuals.
The Central Plains area, unlike Bafang City, had many powerful martial artists.
Xiaohei, with only the strength of Qi Blood Second Transformation, could flaunt in the forests outside Bafang City.
But in the Central Plains, escaping from the capture of many martial artists was hard.
Xiaohei hadn’t even flaunted for long before it almost got caught.
Chirp Chirp?
Xiaohei looked at Lin Zheyu suspiciously, not understanding the meaning of the words.
"Eat some roasted meat first, after eating I’ll take you to a place rarely visited by humans, to live your free and easy life."
Lin Zheyu smiled and patted Xiaohei’s head: "When I grow stronger and join a sect, I’ll come back to get you."
Relying on Xiaohei for hunting was not an option.
It couldn’t survive in Wuling City anymore.
Because of Xiaohei, the Tang Family had lost a powerful Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artist, and soon a chase order would likely be issued.
As long as Xiaohei showed up, it would attract the Tang Family’s pursuit.
Now, he could only first send Xiaohei to secluded mountainous wilderness for free-ranging.
After growing stronger, he’d consider bringing Xiaohei back and keeping it in the city.
However, Xiaohei first had to lose weight, change its appearance, and slim down to be a slim and cute Ink Fox.
An Ink Fox that’s as fat as a pig is truly too eye-catching.
As far as he knew, most Ink Foxes were very slim, exuding a sense of cuteness.
Plus, Ink Foxes are naturally intelligent, and when raised for a long time, they develop feelings.
With great potential and high intelligence, such beasts grow to become a protector at the peak of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.
That’s why so many scions like to raise Ink Foxes.
As for Xiaohei, Lin Zheyu couldn’t figure out what this little guy ate to grow so fat.
...
After finishing the roast, Lin Zheyu and Xiaohei headed deep into the mountains.
He was not in a hurry to leave.
Having just killed someone from the Tang Family, he might have an indelible tracking mark on him.
For safety, Lin Zheyu planned to stay in the forest for a while, and incidentally, improve his strength before taking any further action.
He ground the remaining three sets of medicinal herbs into powder and took them with him.
The medicinal power left in the wooden tub at the yard could still be used next time he came back.
He initially thought he would need some time to rest before he could continue using Source Power to improve.
Unexpectedly, the effect of the blood-colored elixir was so good that it brought him back from spiritual depletion.
Though his spirit was still weak, a night’s rest should suffice, with no problems in continuing to enhance tomorrow.
The medicinal power from three sets might just support him until he breaks through Qi Blood Seven Transformations.
He wasn’t far from Qi Blood Six Transformations now, and didn’t require much medicinal power.
...
A gentle breeze blew.
