’Exhale... Inhale...’
’Exhale... Inhale...’
The Yellow Extre Breathing Technique begins to operate spontaneously.
Lou Yi doesn’t even need to control it; the four strands of secret blood have already started to rampantly rampage within his body.
Frequently, they surge into unfamiliar areas he has never ventured, causing Lou Yi’s face to contort with pain.
However, the effect is evident.
Soon, a more scientific and efficient circulation path is discovered, with the secret blood’s efficiency surpassing twice the previous rate.
Moreover, even if Lou Yi does not actively circulate his qi-blood, it continually cycles at a considerable speed, enhancing his strength.
If he circulates his qi-blood with full effort.
His muscles instantly swell, veins bulge, and billowing white steam oozes from his body surface...
The heavy sound of flowing water ’woosh woosh’ can be heard even from a dozen yards away.
Clicking the ’*’ icon at the upper right corner of the realm shows a prompt:
The breathing technique has reached mastery; actively practicing it yields an eighty-point proficiency increase daily, while passive yields thirty points.
My goodness, this is taking off!
Lou Yi’s eyes widen.
At this rate, he only needs a week to break through to the Five Blood Great Circulation!
This is almost no different than riding a rocket.
The Five Blood Great Circulation is a crucial leap in a martial artist’s grade.
Most Four Blood martial artists can never break through in their lifeti, while even the fastest take two or three years.
Upon breaking through the Five Blood, the bones within the body undergo extensive strengthening and transformation, marking the greatest increase in power.
By then, he’ll be confident enough to debate with those seasoned martial artists about principles.
Having enhanced the breathing technique, Lou Yi feels unsatisfied, and then focuses on the Talent Disguise.
Holding the Earth Jade in his hand, a plus sign also erges behind Talent Disguise.
Imagining a force pressing onto it.
Disguise (Beginner 0/50 1 Earth Jade) → Disguise (Proficient 0/300 1 Earth Vein Spirit Marrow)
A cool energy from heaven and earth enters his body.
First circulating through his limbs and bones several tis, finally concentrating on his face, causing his facial skin to itch slightly as if countless tiny bugs are crawling.
After the itch subsides, Lou Yi checks the attribute panel:
[Na: Lou Yi]

[Energy: 310]
’What is Earth Vein Spirit Marrow, and why do the items needed for advancent keep getting more mystical?’
Such a thought flashes through Lou Yi’s mind, and he begins examining the improved Disguise Talent.
Its passive remains unchanged, but the active feature shows so variation.
Disguise (Passive): The longer one stays in a specific environnt, the easier it is to blend into that environnt.
Disguise (Active): Maximally reduce one’s presence, allowing others to overlook it, applicable in dynamic situations; can slightly alter the arrangent of surface muscles.
Lou Yi grabs a copper mirror and begins activating the Disguise Talent.
In the copper mirror, the youthful face initially showing slight heroism starts to have its muscles continually sink and protrude, even shifting a small distance sideways.
In just a few breaths, the face undergoes a dramatic change.
A wide chin, hooked nose, with slightly bulging cheeks on both sides...
Compared to the original appearance, they aren’t just different; they’re completely unrelated.
Continue altering the facial muscles, transforming into the unremarkable appearance of Liu Shu after wearing a mask.
Is this truly ’slightly’?
Lou Yi is very pleased with the advanced Disguise Talent; from now on, he probably won’t need a human skin mask anymore.
Regarding the remark preceding Disguise Talent, applicable in dynamic situations.
Lou Yi has a vague suspicion in his mind, and thus starts experinting.
He returns to the hall where he first entered, deliberately activating the talent, and then struts in.
Tied up against the pillar, Shi Qingde repeatedly mutters vacantly: "Let out, let out; I want to fight the spirits too, I’m not a waste..."
Lou Yi gets within four or five steps of him, purposely pacing left and right, yet Shi Qingde shows no response.
’Snap!’
Standing before him, Lou Yi flicks his forehead with a big finger flick.
"Why’d you hit ?" Shi Qingde looks at Lou Yi with a grievance, "Not letting go, but hitting , how can you be so bullying?"
"Wait, when did you get here, how co I didn’t see you?"
"Hold on."
Lou Yi steps out of the room, then re-enters.
"See now?"
"Do you think I’m dumb?" Shi Qingde gives Lou Yi a look as if he’s looking at an idiot.
Lou Yi imdiately understands that the Disguise Talent still has considerable limitations.
If the opponent is psychologically prepared, it becos challenging to apply.
To utilize it effectively and play a key role, seizing the first opportunity is crucial.
"Brother Shu, can you help untie?" Shi Qingde’s eyes turn, "If you help , I’ll tell you a secret."
Seeing Lou Yi unmoved, and even showing an intent to leave, Shi Qingde becos anxious, hastily saying: "My room is next to my sister’s, and the other night I heard her whispering in her sleep..."
’Bang!’
A comb is thrown from outside, precisely hitting Shi Qingde’s face, cutting his words off.
Shi Caifeng walks in with an unfriendly face.
She clearly just bathed, wearing a gray profound robe, the collar slightly open, revealing a small area of paler skin compared to her wheat-toned arms.
Her hair is still wet, and Lou Yi can sll a faint scent of fragrance from the side.
"Speak nonsense again, and I’ll tear your mouth." Shi Caifeng threatens her younger brother, then softly says to Lou Yi, "Brother Shu, should we return to the city tower later?"
"Wait a minute, what did you call ?" Upon hearing the soft call of ’Brother Shu,’ Lou Yi imdiately feels goosebumps rising all over.
"Then calling you Brother Yi?"
"No, you better speak normally."
’Bang!’
Shi Caifeng punches Lou Yi’s abdon heavily: "Go to hell!"
Lou Yi bends over with a grin but sohow feels much better.
"Brother Shu, can you let off? I also want to go to the city; I’m a martial artist too. You see, those from other sects with similar strength to mine are all going. If I don’t go, I’ll beco a joke in the future." Shi Qingde continues to plead.
"Don’t worry, no one will laugh at you. Your father has exposed his martial artist’s strength to beco a crucial city defense force. What’s more, you’re rarely needed on the city tower." Lou Yi finishes speaking and returns to the city tower together with Shi Caifeng.
Dawn is soon breaking, and a new battle between humans and beasts awaits them.
