The elixir lted the mont it entered his mouth. Unlike the faint bitterness of a Rejuvenation Pill, this one had a hint of refreshing sweetness.
Imdiately after, a warm current a hundred tis more potent than a Rejuvenation Pill’s suddenly erupted from his Dantian. Like a spring tide breaking over a frozen river, it instantly flooded every corner of his body!
Yang Jing’s entire body shuddered, and he subconsciously began circulating his Inner Strength to guide the elixir’s power.
He could clearly feel the hidden injuries lurking deep within his ridians healing at a visible rate as the elixir’s power washed over them!
A soothing warmth spread through the internal organs that had been damaged by the force of Qin Yu’s punch, as if they were being gently caressed by a warm hand.
The sluggishness in the ridians of his right arm, which had been jolted when he clashed with He Han, quickly faded. In an instant, his Inner Strength flowed freely once more.
In the span of just a few dozen breaths, the hidden injuries that plagued him had mostly healed. All that remained were the minor surface wounds where He Han’s palm strike had grazed him, which didn’t affect his combat strength in the slightest.
What shocked him even more was the change in his Inner Strength.
His Inner Strength, which had only been at fifty or sixty percent, grew explosively under the elixir’s nourishnt. In a re mont, it was restored to its peak. But the warm current didn’t stop there; it continued to flow, pushing his Inner Strength to new heights!
The strength within his Dantian grew increasingly potent. Yang Jing could feel his Inner Strength steadily increasing, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists, sensing the imnse power welling up inside him.
In the past, increasing his Inner Strength had required copious amounts of nutritional and dicinal supplents. Then, he would have to temper himself with the Mountain-Shattering Fist, converting that energy into Inner Strength bit by painstaking bit.
But now, a single elixir had raised his Inner Strength by a significant margin.
A profound sense of shock washed over Yang Jing.
Just then, a profound and mysterious sensation washed over him.
The surrounding clamor seed to instantly fade away. The shouts from the arena and the chatter of the crowd blurred into a dull hum, leaving only the surging of Inner Strength in his body and the trembling of his ridians.
Scenes from the past two days of fighting flashed through his mind: the collision of strength when he’d traded blows with Shen Lie and Qin Yu, the shifting footwork he’d used while maneuvering around He Han, and even the finer points of the Mountain-Shattering Fist that had always felt awkward during his practice.
All the subtleties he had previously missed, the sticking points he could never work through, and the secrets to generating power he couldn’t grasp, now beca crystal clear, as if the clouds had parted to reveal the sun.
How to combine the sinking power of the Mountain-Shattering Fist with his footwork for maximum effect; how the spiraling force of the Raging Wave Kick could be used to deflect an opponent’s fierce assault; even the most minute deviations in the flow of his Inner Strength through his ridians.
Countless insights flashed through his mind, as swift as lightning yet perfectly distinct.
It was as if he were standing on higher ground, looking down upon his past journey on the Martial Dao. All the blurry, stagnant parts of his understanding were being cleared away, one by one, by the enlightennt this elixir had induced.
An unknown amount of ti passed. Only when the warm current within him had gradually subsided and the Inner Strength in his Dantian had stabilized at a new peak did the profound state recede like the tide.

PS:
Brothers and sisters, today’s update is here.
I slept less than four hours, started writing a little after 5 AM, and have been at it ever since.
I skipped breakfast and just had a bowl of rice porridge for lunch.
My head is pounding. I just tried to stand up, and my legs trembled so much I almost fell over.
I’m going to grab a bite to eat, take a short nap, and then get back to writing.
I’ll try to have another update out in the early morning hours.
By the way, do you all prefer updates in the early morning, or would noon be better? I’m open to other suggestions for update tis as well.
I’m worried that updating in the wee hours every day might be too late. I’m listening to your suggestions.
Also, I take all the suggestions you’ve given very seriously. I’ve even taken screenshots of so of the really insightful comnts and am always thinking about how to improve. It’s just that I’ve been swamped these past few days and haven’t made enough changes yet. That’s my fault.
But I will gradually make those improvents going forward. Please keep the suggestions coming; they give direction for my revisions.
Finally, everyone, I have to beg for your precious monthly tickets. I’ve dropped from sixth place to eleventh on the new book rankings. These tickets are really important to . *sob* Thank you all so much!
