Early morning.
The warm sun of winter rarely broke through the dark clouds, casting down fine and gentle rays of light.
Under the eaves, icicles ford from the frozen winter rain began to lt slightly in the sunlight, shrinking to the size of a pinky finger.
Ten miles outside Fei Lei City.
A bamboo forest.
Deep within the bamboo forest stood a bamboo house.
This was a residence Li Che had found outside the city, quiet and free from disturbances.
At least, it was sufficient for the ti being.
Li Che, dressed in black, filled out his clothes with his muscular build, the fine and continuous muscles like those of a mighty python plainly visible.
His blood and Qi created waves of heat, surging throughout the bamboo courtyard.
It seed to transform into a living, breathing Blood Qi python, coiling and hissing around him.
In his stomach, it was like a sea turned upside down as the Python Blood Martial Pill he had ingested was crushed and refined, extracting the vast dicinal power and turning it into Qi and blood, circulating within the pathways of the Minor Circulatory Cycle of Qi Vessels.
His five fingers beca like hooks, fiercely grabbing down, as a chaotic wind abruptly started, with a White Tiger seemingly roaring with bared teeth behind Li Che!
White Tiger Chaotic Wind Fist!
This Middle Vehicle Martial Technique had been refined by Li Che to the level of Transformation Realm, and after his improvents, had already beco a Superior Martial Arts Technique with formidable power.
Each move was filled with the domineering and lethal nature of the White Tiger!
The Xu Family's Eight Consecutive Bone-Breaking Spears, which he had also modified, had reached the level of the Transformation Realm, becoming another Superior Martial Arts Technique!
The benefits of the Level 3 Dragon Elephant Vajra to martial arts talent were enormous!
Not only was he unparalleled in cross-training, but his understanding of martial arts was also unique—it seed he could deduce myriad techniques from a single glance. Practically any martial art could be mastered to Minor Accomplishnt within a day!
This was the Level 3 talent of cross-training!
A martial technique needs to go through several stages from the beginning: Minor Accomplishnt, Major Accomplishnt, Master, and Transformation Realm, which can be understood as levels of proficiency.
Once the Transformation Realm is reached, a martial technique's power reaches its peak; beyond that lies the Martial Arts True Intent.
This was what Li Qingshan had told Li Che.
And to cultivate Martial Arts True Intent, the rank of the martial technique has to reach the level of "True Intent Ultimate Study."
Although the White Tiger Chaotic Wind Fist and the Xu Family's Eight Consecutive Bone-Breaking Spears had been improved by him to the standard of Superior Martial Arts Techniques, there was little hope of cultivating Martial Arts True Intent or reaching the level of Jue Xue with them.
Moreover, Divine Martial Arts cannot generate Martial Arts True Intent; only pure Qi and blood martial techniques can derive Martial Arts True Intent.
The Qi and blood slowly converged, and the crushed martial pill was gradually digested.
Transforming into a rushing energy, it strengthened Li Che's internal organs, giving rise to an inner Qi like that of a Jiao Dragon.
Boom!
As Li Che perford each technique, the practice of martial arts accelerated the movent of Qi and blood, speeding up the volatilization of the martial pill's dicinal properties.
After executing the White Tiger Chaotic Wind Fist, Li Che's fingers clenched, and the air silently tore apart, expelling an odd long spear adorned with blood-colored patterns—it was the Nine Luminaries Superior Divine Weapon, the Liu Blood Shock Spear!
With the Divine Spear in hand, dancing with it scattered forceful winds, and the currents of air agitated!
Amidst its low whistling, sounds like a screeching roar reverberated through the forest, ceaseless to the ear!
A Divine Weapon, even without carrying Divinity, inherently possesses hardness, toughness, and sharpness far surpassing ordinary weapons.
When a Blood Python roared out, and the air transmitted eight consecutive sounds of explosion, Li Che then put away the Divine Weapon Startling Spear.
"The last Python Blood Martial Pill... it should be enough. My martial cultivation has already reached the Qi ridian Peak, and my inner Qi is as strong as a Jiao Dragon. All that's left is the Mysterious Vein thod, and I can naturally make a breakthrough."
Li Che exhaled a breath of turbid air.
Without hesitation, he swallowed the last Python Blood Martial Pill.
Thus, all the martial pills acquired from the Yang Family Treasure House had been consud, and the tens of thousands of taels' worth of resources successfully pushed his cultivation to the Qi ridian Peak.
When the last martial pill's dicinal properties had been completely refined and consud by his body.
A surge of intense heat rolled through the courtyard, waves of heat rising high.
Li Che opened his eyes, which sparkled brightly.
"The foundation of my physical body is now solid. Even without activating Angry Vajra, I could easily kill a common Xuanmai Warrior..."
"It seems, it's ti to try casting the Three-Eyed Fury True Lord Divine Foundation..."
...
...
Casting a Divine Foundation ultimately wasn't sothing that could be done with just passion.
According to the Temple God's Divine Foundation Technique, quite a few preparations were needed.
It was more akin to a ritual.
Li Che compared it with the Heart Shocking Extre Firmness Divine Foundation Technique obtained from the Old Ancestor of the Yang Family. Apart from the objects required for the preparation, both involved so form of ritual.
The most important part was the need to prepare three items of Divinity, such as wood carvings, jade carvings, and scrolls, among others.
But wood carvings were more encouraged, preferably carved from Spiritual Wood.
Among the Old Ancestor's collection, there was a piece of wood stump from a type of Spiritual Wood called Spirit Flower Willow; though it was the sa rank as "Blood Flesh Red," the two differed greatly in value—the Spirit Flower Willow was bigger yet cheaper by quite a bit.
As for the blueprint of the wood carving, it was also provided in the Divine Foundation Technique.
Being a Woodcarving Master himself, this matter wasn't troubleso for Li Che. As for the blood of three animals and five grains, it just required so ti to prepare.
After concealing his Qi and blood and only displaying the Bone Tempering Completion cultivation, Li Che changed into a clean set of black clothes, looking refined and mild, clutched the Thunder Chess Piece, and returned to the predetermined anchor point in the study of his own ho.
Today was a big event in Fei Lei City.
It was the day that City Lord Cao Guang set a banquet at the Golden Splendor Pavilion for the Divine Sect's Guiding Envoy, where the noble families and clans of Fei Lei City would bring their Spirit Children for the Divine Sect's Guiding Envoy to assess, hoping they might be recruited into the sect.
In previous years, in addition to the Divine Sect recruiting Spirit Children, the Da Jing Dynasty's official court would also recruit.
However, with the expansion of the disaster from the Mysterious Temple, the Imperial Court had given up on recruiting Spirit Children from various places, letting the noble families and clans train them on their own, while the Divine Sect continued to send Guiding Envoys.
