"Furnace Ding..."
As Tang Cheng simply recounted the entire process of eting that so-called master from outside the world and being instructed in an advanced cultivation technique, Qin Fang's mind almost imdiately conjured up these two words.
"Brother Tang... if I tell you that you absolutely must stop practicing this cultivation technique, would you find it a pity?"
After a brief silence, Qin Fang gave a simple analysis of the so-called advanced cultivation technique Tang Cheng had acquired, and then looked at Tang Cheng with a wry smile and said.
"Is there really a problem?"
Tang Cheng's face imdiately turned rather ugly, and he couldn't help but ask, with a slightly regretful look in his eyes... However, from his reaction, it was clear that he believed Qin Fang and decided to give up this cultivation technique.
However, he still wanted to know the reason... Even if he were to die, he'd want to die knowing the reason.
"There's nothing inherently wrong with this technique; in fact, it is indeed a very powerful and advanced inner strength thod... The reason you've gone from Master Level Early Stage to your current cultivation so quickly is indeed due to the effect of this technique."
Qin Fang, however, shook his head, denying the suspicion in Tang Cheng's heart, and even gave a rather positive evaluation of this cultivation technique.
"Then why do you..."
This puzzled Tang Cheng, as Qin Fang's statents seed contradictory, leaving him confused.
"Don't rush, let finish..."
Qin Fang waved his hand and continued, "The reason I'm saying this is because... this set of techniques should be divided into two parts, or rather, it's a relationship between an upper and lower volu! However, the two complent each other and are indispensable..."
"If I'm not mistaken, what you've been practicing is the upper volu of this technique, while the person who taught you holds the lower volu..."
"The upper volu is mainly focused on cultivating True Qi, and is a very powerful technique for rapidly gathering True Qi. Within a very short period, it can amass a considerable amount of True Qi... but this is all at the cost of depleting personal life potential!"
Though Qin Fang had never seen the entire cultivation technique, he could infer from certain situations, and it was likely quite accurate.
Especially since what Qin Fang described was almost identical to what had happened to Tang Cheng... His advancent speed was indeed rapid, and his True Qi was quite abundant, making it hard to suppress even if he wanted to.
"Hiss~~~"
Upon hearing Qin Fang's words, even a man like Tang Cheng couldn't help but shiver.
Life potential, although Tang Cheng had just stepped into the Martial World, he knew this was a person's essence. If too much was depleted, it would lead to extre weakness, and it might even cost one's life... Recalling the speed of his advancent, Tang Cheng was also frightened.
"Brother Tang, it's also a matter of your good luck. When you were about to break through, I left you a few drops of Spiritual Liquid... Not only did it help you break through to Master Level, but it also washed your ridians, and made your life potential more robust than the average person."
However, Qin Fang checked Tang Cheng's physical condition. Although he was quite depleted, he could still hold on for so ti. The dicinal power of the Golden Dragon Saliva remaining in his body had fully dissipated, which Qin Fang could also infer the reason.
"Perhaps, this is also one of the reasons you were chosen by that person... But you can count yourself lucky; your life potential is stronger than most people, and fortunately I returned in ti. If I were a bit later, you would have broken through to Grandmaster Level, and even I wouldn't be able to help you!"
With strong life potential, the effects of practicing such a cultivation technique are also better. Reaching the Master Level Peak in such a short ti, even if he broke through to Grandmaster Level, there wouldn't be much of a problem...
But...
"Once you break through to Grandmaster Level, that will be the ti of your demise... and that person will co back to harvest!"
Qin Fang said with considerable sentint.
"What's really going on?"
Despite everything Qin Fang said, Tang Cheng was still bewildered, not knowing where the crucial point lay.
"The cultivation technique you've been practicing is indeed formidable... but that's referring to practicing the complete set of techniques, which could be considered one of the top martial arts in the Righteous Path! However, if separated, it's different... The upper part cultivates Qi, gathers Qi, while the lower part raises Qi, condenses Qi!"
Qin Fang then explained so of the secrets within to Tang Cheng,
"Brother Tang, let's put it this way... it's like raising pigs. The one who practices the upper part is like the pig that keeps being fattened, shoved with feed; naturally, this pig grows quickly and robustly, but this robustness is only an appearance, in reality it's just superficial fat. And the one who practices the lower part is the butcher... When this fat pig grows fat enough, he will co and slaughter it!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Cheng's face turned extrely dark and gloomy.
Qin Fang's analogy might not have been very appropriate, but the general aning was clear... Tang Cheng had cultivated a flawed half-step cultivation technique, becoming a pig that was continuously being fattened, while the so-called reclusive master who taught him this technique was the butcher, waiting to appear, slaughter, and harvest once the pig was fat and strong!
In the end, Tang Cheng wouldn't gain any benefits but would even lose his life. All the benefits would go to that so-called reclusive master...
"Damn bastard!"
Having understood this, Tang Cheng roared in an uncontrollable rage, "I respected him so much back then, but I never thought..."
At that ti, Tang Cheng was still in a state of confusion, seeing this master so generously impart high-level techniques to him, he was overjoyed and almost exalted this master to the heavens but never expected such an ending in return.
If it wasn't for Qin Fang returning and discovering this, he might have died without even knowing how he died.
"Qin Fang, you must think of a way..."
Having encountered this situation, all the joy Tang Cheng felt from his significant power improvent vanished, leaving only deep fear... and anger and resentnt, naturally directed at the so-called reclusive master who deceived him.
"Don't worry, Brother Tang... Leave this to to handle!"
Tang Cheng was his brother-in-law, so Qin Fang would certainly save him, "However, I need to make so preparations... You shouldn't continue practicing this cultivation technique anymore, stopping now should be enough! If you continue, I fear I wouldn't even be able to control it!"
"I won't practice it anymore, never again..."
Tang Cheng nodded. How could he dare to continue practicing now? The more he practiced, the closer he got to death; he wasn't a mindless person.
"Don't burden yourself too much... I estimated this person's strength isn't absurdly strong, I should still be able to handle it... This ti, the two of us will join forces to deal with this guy, not only to completely disrupt his plans but also to make him suffer a heavy loss!"
Qin Fang already had a rough plan in mind. Although it wasn't complete, he had a broad idea, and with careful research and discussion with Tang Cheng, it should beco more perfect.
According to Qin Fang's speculation, Tang Cheng and that mysterious individual were cultivating a complete set of techniques; only it required two people to practice to achieve one... As for who eventually benefited, it was hard to say.
For now, Tang Cheng was clearly in an extrely unfavorable position, with a higher chance of being unfortunate. What Qin Fang had to do was naturally help Tang Cheng turn the tables and make the other party suffer a severe setback.
If the plan was executed perfectly, making the other party unwittingly 'make wedding clothes for others' for Tang Cheng wasn't out of the question...
"Brother Tang, the two of us need to plan carefully. If there's indeed an opportunity, perhaps... your cultivation could catch up to mine in one go!"
Regarding the secretive matter of being a cultivation furnace, Qin Fang knew a bit, like the legendary Dao Heart Planting Demon, which was of this concept...
Qin Fang wasn't sure whether what Tang Cheng was cultivating was Dao Heart Planting Demon, but at least it should be a similar technique; only Tang Cheng frustratingly beca the other party's cultivation furnace...
"Is there really such an opportunity?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Cheng's breaths beca rapid.
How far Qin Fang had achieved in cultivation, Tang Cheng couldn't quite fathom.
However, he felt that even with his current Master Level Peak cultivation, he seed weaker than Qin Fang was in the past, and with so much ti having passed, Qin Fang seed to have beco even stronger, making his own cultivation seem even weaker in comparison.
But now Qin Fang said there was a chance to catch up to him. How could Tang Cheng not feel excited and thrilled?
Even though he was now a soldier, venturing onto the Martial Way indicated he was showing signs of becoming a martial fanatic...
"However, don't be in a rush; the other party shouldn't appear before you break through to the Grandmaster Level, so... we still have ample ti to prepare!"
Seeing Tang Cheng's reaction, Qin Fang could only smile wryly.
He was already wondering if leading Tang Cheng onto this path back then was right or wrong...
But irrespective of that, having already reached this point, even if he regretted it, it was too late. He must find a way to save Tang Cheng from his imminent calamity and must not let that mysterious person succeed.
"If my guess is correct, the mysterious individual aims to use Brother Tang's True Qi to break through the Grandmaster Level bottleneck and advance to the Great Grandmaster Level. While his strength might be strong, it shouldn't be insurmountably so... This is my opportunity!"
Though Qin Fang spoke lightly, inwardly, he was thoroughly analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of both sides... Without considerable confidence, he wouldn't appear so at ease! (To be continued.
