However, Li Yuan had long since unified horizontal cultivation and inner cultivation, and had comprehended the Peak Skill of the Seventh Grade—Golden Body.
Li Yuan sat cross-legged with eyes closed, following the "Blood Transport Skill" ntioned in the "Five Viscera Gold Swallowing Skill" to circulate his blood and the "Breathing Skill" for breathing. As for so supplentary herbs needed for cultivation, he left it to Xiaozhu to gather them.
These supplentary herbs were not Spirit Flowers and Herbs, but just regular herbs used internally, with the purpose of "regulating the internal organs, making them more easily nurtured by Shadow Blood."
Half a month later...
Li Yuan exhaled deeply.
Finally, the "Five Viscera Gold Swallowing Skill" showed the mark "(1/10)."
Li Yuan didn’t wait and directly allocated "309" points to fill the skill, leaving him with "9041" remaining points.
Suddenly, a mysterious mory surged in his mind.
...
In this mory, he was originally a big eater. While others could only eat six buns in one al, he could eat sixty.
However, the increase in food intake only made him fat.
The scorn of others and the mockery of relatives made him decide to do sothing different.
He began to beco self-disciplined.
And slowly, his talent started to manifest.
Ti flew by, many years passed.
He had already broken through the Sixth Grade and beca a revered existence.
Yet, even so, he felt numb and uncomfortable.
Because this didn’t seem to be what he liked doing.
So, what was it that he truly liked?
Then, one day, by chance, he swallowed a stone. Feeling the fullness it brought to his stomach, he fell in love with this pleasure and couldn’t stop.
He continued to try swallowing more stones, then tals...
The fullness sensation in his abdon, the clarity of past mories, made him tear up, rediscovering the initial touch of emotion.
Only, the weak organs couldn’t withstand this.
So, he began trying various thods, diligently mobilizing Shadow Blood to strengthen the organs, and formulated prescriptions to assist in enhancing them.
After being covered in scars, finally... he understood.
He succeeded.
His internal organs beca incredibly resilient, capable of swallowing any tal, and even if a sword were thrust through the throat, he would remain unhard.
Only a new problem erged.
He could swallow these tals, but couldn’t digest them.
His stomach couldn’t lt these tals, he simply ate them and then vomited them out.
"No, it’s not like this"...
He agonizingly howled in the mountains, ran in the rain, shouting, "How could the organs be such inconvenient things!"
"I won’t accept it, I won’t accept it!"
Then, he encountered a strange person with a blurred face, who whispered in his ear, giving him so advice.
This advice made him realize the true secret of "digesting tal"—poison.
If one could secret strong corrosive toxins within their own body, wouldn’t that digest the tals?
This idea sparked a strong interest in him.
He beca obsessed with it, even if it was a skill nobody believed in or cared about, he would use all his strength to perfect it.
He began trying to ingest toxins in small amounts, but the detoxifying power of Shadow Blood made this difficult.
Every ti he ingested ordinary toxins, they would be expelled imdiately upon entering his body.
He tried repeatedly, day after day, year after year...
Finally, one day, in a heavy snowfall, he sat alone by a stove.
On the stove was an iron pot, boiling soup.
The soup had just co to a boil, bubbles rising from the bottom.
He stared absentmindedly at the bubbles.
Clearly they were gases, yet they flowed within the water.
Even though they quickly burst out, they still existed within the water...
If gases can do this, why can’t toxins... do the sa?
...
After the mory ended, Li Yuan felt as if he had truly experienced all of this.
And the "Five Viscera Gold Swallowing Skill" after reaching Great Perfection, granted him the ability to store toxins within his body, making these toxins float in his blood like bubbles, but they were just ordinary toxins, not those deadly to a Sixth Grade Martial Artist.
A familiar feeling arose in Li Yuan’s heart.
Previously when he cultivated the Beast Taming Skill, at Great Perfection it mutated into a connection with the divine souls of weak birds.
And now, this "Five Viscera Gold Swallowing Skill," in its first few layers, enhanced the organs, but after Perfection, suddenly transford into "storing ordinary toxins within the body as bubbles."
This unbelievable twist was clearly a mutation.
However, this mutation seed temporarily useless.
Li Yuan sensed this miraculous skill, then set it aside for now, quickly retrieving 20 pounds of Sixth Grade Demon Beast at from the cellar.
He piled wood, lit a fire, and cooked a big pot of at...
Once it was cooked, he grabbed the entire pot and poured it into his mouth.
The broth and beast at entered his stomach, yet were compressed by the incredibly strong organs, becoming denser.
Li Yuan ate the 20 pounds of at, yet his abdon didn’t even swell.
This was the effect he desired.
He wanted to compress and further compress his blood.
After eating 20 pounds of at, he continued to cultivate.
At night, he engaged in the daily activities expected of a "master and his personal maids."
The abundance of energy required him to vent in so way.
i, Lan, Zhu, and Ju, the four maids, were divided into two groups, each day two of them accompanying Li Yuan.
Afterwards, Li Yuan would also spend ti with the mistress.
Late into the night, he listened to the mistress sharing intelligence from various places.
"The Demon Hunters are keen to establish connections with us locally. They said the relocation of the Black Market to Rongguang Square is great... It makes transporting Demon Beasts an easier task for them.
