Li Yuan glanced at his panel, noticing there were no new skills appearing. This ant... either this skill wasn’t in the panel, or it was an ultimate secret skill he hadn’t yet mastered.
He looked up at the snowy winds, watching as the mist condensed into fine ice particles and fell from high above, murmuring to himself, "It’s ti to train outside."
Li Yuan’s departure left Zhenyan Huang anxiously waiting for his father’s return every day.
But fortunately, Zhenyan Xue knew how to soothe children. She took out the "Nine Yang Martial Technique" and started guiding her son in cultivation.
Although Li Yuan said, "The Eleventh Form’s killing move can only be practiced by the Barbarian King," Zhenyan Xue decided to teach it directly to her son.
These would keep Zhenyan Huang occupied for quite a while.
Moreover, Li Yuan wasn’t not coming back at all, just less frequently.
...
Upon arriving at Cloud Mountain Path, Li Yuan no longer pursued the Red Dust Enlightennt Blade.
His current blade couldn’t truly comprehend the Red Dust.
Because just one misstep could destroy an entire street.
He wandered around and arrived at a barren wasteland where not a single blade of grass grew, starting to test his blade on this wasteland.
Unlike in the frozen soil, here, he could use the White Snake Blade to unleash Celestial Thunder Possession, temporarily breaking through to the Fourth Grade, thereby constructing more profound "domain" type sword skills.
He made repeated attempts with the forces he had already integrated well in the frozen soil.
But failed ti and again.
Until the ti ca to the end of another year.
Cloud Mountain Path was now in the snow season.
On this day, his mind was serene, and he raised his hand to execute the technique he had practiced countless tis.
Unlike usual, this ti he felt exceptionally well.
Indeed, a scorching blade pattern ford of hundreds of feet of crimson red, slashed out in an instant, like the dragon breath of a flaming giant dragon, lting all the rocks on this land, the fiery aura rising high, resembling a Red Fla Hell...
"Success."
Li Yuan showed a look of joy.
But everything wasn’t over yet.
His joyful expression had just appeared when it froze again.
After leaving the environnt of the frozen soil, this slash by Li Yuan produced an additional anomaly.
First, it was his right arm wielding the blade.
A strange burning sensation ca from that right arm, followed by nurous chunks of flesh quickly piling up.
Soon, these chunks of flesh quickly spread to Li Yuan’s entire body, causing his whole being to grow larger, his arms and legs becoming thicker and longer.
Soon, he shot up from an average human height to nearly two zhang tall.
His whole body’s clothing and pants were entirely shredded.
His entire fra was muscular, each thread of increasingly dense muscle fibers like molten steel before quenching, exuding intense heat, and emitting white mist amidst the year-end falling snow.
This sudden growth stunned Li Yuan.
He quickly ran towards a distant frozen lake.
The ground trembled with his running as if dozens of elephants were stampeding with full force.
Li Yuan arrived at the lakeside, lowering his head to look at his reflection in the water.
And then...
He was genuinely scared.
This wasn’t due to a weak temperant.
But at this mont, his appearance, his stature, had beco extrely out of place with his aspirations and his life.
If given a choice between the pursuit of the path and life, he would undoubtedly choose life.
He would strive to beco stronger, but to say "abandon life and family for the heart of the path," he couldn’t do it.
Li Yuan looked at his reflection on the ice, which could be described with terms like "Cosmic Fla Giant," then at the Cyan Snake Blade pinched between his fingers like a toothpick, unable to resist a low roar, "What kind of joke is this?!"
"Why did practicing the blade turn into this?"
He panted heavily, filled with anger.
But soon, he cald down, sitting cross-legged by the frozen lake.
The massive frozen layer on the lake suddenly lted swiftly, and the area near where Li Yuan sat began to emit a bubbling sound, which was the water boiling.
Several fish, their bodies turning white from being boiled, surfaced.
Li Yuan brushed the fish away in annoyance and moved to another spot.
His thoughts raced like lightning through his mind.
Before long, he reached a conclusion.
"Yang Qi governs the flesh and blood.
Thus, it forms a at field.
Thus, when I integrate the fire, my body weight transforms from an ordinary human weight to sothing extrely abnormal.
And the recent burst and accumulation must have resulted in so qualitative change, causing the amount of Yang Qi my body sustained to increase suddenly, hence the continued growth in flesh and blood, exploding to this level.
After all, having Yang Qi in the body, and channeling all Yang Qi through the body, are still different."
"In the extre cold of the frozen soil, Yang Qi is scarce, creating a kind of suppression, preventing changes to my body.
But once outside, this suppression is absent, and I instead grow taller and stronger."
"So, if I can learn to gather the Yang Qi dispersed around , my physique will change, and perhaps my weight will decrease as well."
Li Yuan rested his chin in thought.
Before long, as if to verify his speculation.
His body started to slowly shrink, gradually returning to the size of a normal human, although the distinct weight remained unchanged.
Li Yuan, bare to the world, was unconcerned; he continued to ponder: If I can restrain this fire enough, might my weight decrease too?
"But, how do I restrain it?"
"Do I need Yin Qi?"
He remained silent for a long ti before suddenly saying, "No!
If fire is the basis of flesh and blood,
can’t flesh and blood, in turn, influence fire?
When the fire changes, my flesh and blood are actually changing too.
Can I utilize this change to do sothing?
