Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 195 - 121 Gu Jingang’s Thoughts!

"The secret technique of the Fire Worship Cult?"

Gu Sheng’s eyes showed a hint of seriousness. When he had slain the four Fire Worship Cultists earlier, the Martial Artist at the Perfect Blood Refining Realm had unleashed a wave of power. Though it hadn’t caused much of a stir on Gu Sheng’s end, it had left a lasting impression.

Truth be told, when dealing with ordinary Martial Artists of the sa realm, that tall, burly man in black might indeed have caught them off guard.

Gu Sheng opened the manual with a trace of anticipation.

Monts later, he slowly raised his head.

A hint of excitent appeared in his eyes.

"The so-called Blood Activation Skill is essentially locking away a portion of Qi Blood Power on a daily basis, enhancing its vitality through a special thod, and unleashing it at critical monts to amplify one’s strength."

"Simply put, it temporarily enhances the quality of a portion of Qi Blood Power by one level, and after the burst, it returns to its original state."

Gu Sheng roughly understood the principle behind the secret technique.

"According to the manual, if one masters the technique to the Perfect realm, they could lock away fifty percent of their Qi Blood Power, and upon unleashing it, elevate their strength by half a level!"

He was sowhat astonished.

This kind of secret technique is indeed powerful, making him realize the deep reserves of the Fire Worship Cult. If even a re peripheral mber could wield such a potent technique, one could only imagine how formidable the core mbers must be.

Gu Sheng silently warned himself to act more cautiously in the future.

Currently, in Canghe County, he could leverage various Martial Arts techniques and special realm advantages to easily slay Martial Artists of the sa level—sotis even surpassing realms for combat.

But once he ventured into a more prosperous martial world, the sa might not hold true, as many Martial Artists would also have powerful techniques, even secret techniques similar to the Blood Activation Skill.

Nevertheless, he had no intention of discarding the skill out of fear. Although the Blood Activation Skill originated from the Fire Worship Cult and should not be used lightly, it could potentially save his life as a hidden trump card.

With his abundant Qi Blood Power, locking away a portion wouldn’t significantly impact his combat strength.

After taking stock of his gains, a faint smile crept onto Gu Sheng’s lips.

With three Bone Protecting Pills in hand, the next period would allow him to focus on his cultivation for so ti. For at least the next three months, he wouldn’t need to worry about acquiring Bone Protecting Pills. Gu Sheng could dedicate ti to diligently accumulating experience while silently observing the situation.

The following days.

Gu Sheng’s life returned to order, with the addition of the Blood Activation Skill to his training regin. His schedule beca tighter than ever. With Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique included, he now had five Martial Arts techniques to practice.

Luckily, the Flying Thunder Leg was nearing advancent into the special realm.

Once that happens, he’ll have more ti to train his other techniques.

As for his bone tempering progress, it steadily improved. With the aid of the Bone Protecting Pills, Gu Sheng’s advantage of abundant Qi Blood Power ca to full play, allowing him to temper bones at a speed far beyond the norm. Moreover, he discovered that the Blood Activation Skill also provided so assistance in bone tempering.

Higher quality Qi Blood Power resulted in more efficient bone tempering.

At Helian Tie Lan’s side, Gu Sheng occasionally visited.

Firstly, to lend a hand. Though he couldn’t directly assist with the material refinent process, he could help save ti in other areas, accelerating the progress of the heavy armor’s forging.

Secondly, he seized the opportunity to gain experience in Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique during his visits.

Though in the short term Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique couldn’t surpass Helian Tie Lan’s expertise or provide significant assistance to Gu Sheng, persistence was key.

Eventually, when Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique reached the Perfect realm, it would prove imnsely helpful.

...

Gu’s Manor ancestral hall.

At this mont, only two people stood there. One was an energetic elderly man with white hair and white beard, none other than the Gu family’s Great Clan Elder. The other was a muscular bald giant—currently the Gu family’s number one expert—Gu Jingang.

However, at this mont.

The atmosphere carried a subtle tension.

"Great Clan Elder, Jingang requests permission to use the clan’s stored Blood Strengthening Pill!"

Gu Jingang’s body slightly bowed as he spoke respectfully, but his tone carried an underlying assertiveness.

Back then, four Blood Strengthening Pills had been refined using blood from a demon wolf. One was given to Gu Changming, one to Gu Jingang, and the one originally designated for Gu Dajiang was ultimately reassigned to Gu Xiaojiang. The remaining pill was kept by the clan as a reserve.

Last year, when the Bloodsucking Demon Fox wreaked havoc, Gu’s Manor reported the situation, prompting Liu Yuanhu’s successful pill refinent. As a result, he did not disappoint the Gu family and allocated two pills from Ge Qing’s batch to the Gu family.

Although the Blood Strengthening Pill costs less than one thousand taels and is within the Gu family’s financial capability, such precious resources are invaluable—rarely available on the market.

Previously, the black market auction occasionally offered so, while Ge Qing, the Pill Master, would occasionally release a few—but they were challenging to acquire. Without sufficient strength, one shouldn’t even entertain the thought.

Thus, the Gu family had only accumulated three Blood Strengthening Pills so far.

The Great Clan Elder’s gaze fixed firmly on Gu Jingang. Based on typical procedure, if Gu Jingang wanted to request the Blood Strengthening Pill, he would need to report to the elders for deliberation, followed by holding a clan eting for a vote.

It clearly wasn’t appropriate to bypass these steps and directly approach the Great Clan Elder, making this move sowhat presumptuous.

"Jingang, you’ve overstepped."

The Great Clan Elder’s calm voice rang, causing Gu Jingang’s face to stiffen. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth:

"Great Clan Elder, Jingang understands that this request diverges from clan protocol, but ti presses urgently. The situation in Canghe County is changing rapidly; the Black Sand Gang and Liu Yuanhu could clash at any mont."
