The sun sets in the west.
The dim afterglow scatters down.
In the courtyard, Lin Zheyu slowly opened his closed eyes.
Hoo~~
He let out a long breath of turbid air and stood up.
[Heaven rewards diligence]
Na: Lin Zheyu
Source Power: 0
Skills:
Golden Swan Skill (Ninth Layer 59%)
Turtle Breath Skill (Third Layer 100%)
"I still need eleven units of Source Power to elevate the Ninth Layer of Golden Swan Skill to the level of perfection."
Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness, and after using up the remaining eight units of Source Power, the progress increased to fifty-nine percent of the Ninth Layer.
The five portions of Red Fire Blood Nourishing Powder were all used up, while the other five portions of Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup were completely unused.
After testing, using two units of Source Power to enhance the Ninth Layer of Golden Swan Skill requires only one portion of Red Fire Blood Nourishing Powder.
If enhanced in a state of exhaustion, using two units of Source Power combined with one portion of Red Fire Blood Nourishing Powder can only restore about ten percent of Qi Blood power.
One portion of Red Fire Blood Nourishing Powder is roughly equivalent to the dicinal power of ten portions of Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup.
Lin Zheyu looked at the wooden basin, which still emitted a faint dicinal fragrance.
So dicinal power remained inside, but it had no effect on him; most of it was fire poison, toxins, and other miscellaneous elents that would cause side effects.
"No wonder the dicinal power of Red Fire Blood Nourishing Powder is so strong, yet the price is so low. The remaining dicinal power is mostly fire poison and so miscellaneous elents that carry mild toxins."
"Ingesting so many toxins is bound to cause problems sooner or later."
Lin Zheyu said to himself.
He touched a bit of the residual dicinal powder with his hand, sniffed it under his nose, and then licked it with his tongue.
A faint scent of fire poison wafted over, slightly burning his tongue, which proved how potent the side effects of this dicinal herb were.
"Find soone to ask where the black market in Bafang City is, when it opens, and take so ti to visit. Maybe I can find so prescriptions that have huge side effects but stronger dicinal power at a lower price."
Lin Zheyu mused to himself.
When enhancing Source Power, the energy needed is the part of the herbs that can enhance vitality and Qi Blood; other unused herbal elents remain.
Lin Zheyu had previously tested removing from the Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup the few herbs used to harmonize others that bring side effects, which didn’t significantly affect the overall dicinal power of the herb.
Since he did not absorb the dicinal power by ingesting it, he didn’t need to worry about the excessively strong efficacy and side effects, so he didn’t need those herbs to harmonize.
However, because these herbs were cheap and had so effect of enhancing the dicinal power, Lin Zheyu still bought all the herbs each ti.
The different characteristics of the herbs in the Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup can enhance the herb’s effects, maximally nourishing the body and strengthening the Martial Artist’s Qi Blood.
Used separately, the effect would be greatly reduced.
This is also why Lin Zheyu chose to buy the recipe for nourishing Qi Blood instead of directly purchasing so precious herbs.
Poof~~
Lin Zheyu tapped his toes and moved.
Qi Blood power surged into his legs, operated by the Qi and Blood Burst Skill as he stepped onto the Golden Swan Skill, moving rapidly in the courtyard.
His right leg took a sudden bounce, and his entire body shot out like a cannonball, then abruptly stopped against the corner wall, defying inertia.
Lin Zheyu turned, making an abrupt left turn, and again shot out like a cannonball.
In the courtyard, his shadow remained after he moved quickly.
With the Ninth Layer of Golden Swan Skill improved to fifty-nine percent, he could already perform those simple footwork moves.
Although not very agile, simple straight lines, turns, leaps, and lateral movents were no longer a problem, albeit sowhat stiff.
Currently, the Ninth Layer of Golden Swan Skill is only suitable for escaping and pursuing enemies, but not for close combat.
"I wonder what level my current strength has reached; I need to find an opportunity to test my skills against a stronger opponent."
Lin Zheyu thought to himself while practicing.
He knew little about the strength of higher Martial Arts Ream levels, especially the strength after the Qi Blood Six Transformations and the Marrow Refining Realm.
However, based on his estimation of the strength increase from Qi Blood First Transformation to Qi Blood Four Transformations, the Qi Blood Six Transformations could at most double the Qi Blood power compared to the Third Transformation.
As for the Nine Transformations of Qi and Blood, it’s hard to estimate, but it is definitely stronger than Lin Zheyu’s current power.
It was said that if a Martial Artist could cultivate to the Qi Blood Nine Transformations—the Qi Blood Dragon Realm, their strength would undergo a great transformation, and their bone quality would see a significant leap.
Lin Zheyu’s goal was to cultivate to the Qi Blood Dragon Realm before advancing to the Marrow Refining Realm.
Thump thump.
Thump thump thump.
There was a knocking sound at the courtyard gate.
Lin Zheyu stopped his cultivation and opened the door.
"Uncle, Mother asked to call you over for dinner," Han Tianshun said with a grin.
His face was flushed red, with beads of sweat on his forehead, indicating he had been running over.
"Alright, you go back first, I’ll be there shortly."
Lin Zheyu patted Han Tianshun’s head, chuckled, and said.
"Okay, I’ll head back first, goodbye Uncle."
Han Tianshun nodded obediently, waved goodbye, and ran back to his courtyard.
Their courtyard was not far from Lin Zheyu’s; a gentle breeze brought the tempting aroma.
"I wonder how things are in Songyi City, I hope Senior Brother is safe!" Lin Zheyu thought to himself, gazing at the colorful clouds in the sky.
Ti slowly passed.
