Chapter 566: Chapter 224: Peregrine Falcon Harvests Vermilion Fruit!

As the one who obtained the Body Refining Manual, Old Qi felt as if he had a mountain of gold in front of him that he couldn’t access.

Therefore, he was very curious about what kind of improvements Xu Binghu would have after body refining.

”Alright, Old Qi.”

With that, Xu Binghu stood up and positioned himself in the center of the courtyard. Moonlight shone on him, his robust muscles making him look like a humanoid tank.

”Haa—”

A shout from Xu Binghu immediately filled the air with the aura of a fierce tiger.

Old Qi exclaimed in surprise, ”Binghu, the Demon Beast Heart Blood you used for body refining, was it from a Demon Tiger?”

Xu Binghu nodded, ”By chance, by chance.”

Old Qi widened his eyes, looking at Xu Binghu in disbelief.

The tiger, known as the King of Hundred Beasts among animals, is celebrated for its strength, speed, and aura, all superior to other animals.

Similarly, the same applies to Demon Beasts.

The Demon Tiger holds the same status as the King of Hundred Beasts among Demon Beasts, with a level of danger far surpassing that of other Demon Beasts.

A sub-adult Demon Tiger can battle on par with other ordinary adult Demon Beasts.

Originally, it was assumed that Xu Binghu had only slain an ordinary Demon Beast. To unexpectedly learn it was a Demon Tiger was truly beyond Old Qi’s expectations.

”Haha.” Old Qi laughed, ”The best decision I’ve ever made in my life was handing the Body Refining Manual to the Xu Family. Even the Demon Tiger Heart Blood could be obtained. Could it be that Xu Binghu is the chosen one?”

These words left Xu Binghu a bit embarrassed.

He’s definitely not the chosen one; his son, Xu Ran, is the true chosen one.

If not for Xu Ran, who transferred the mysterious substance into his body every day, his power would not have suddenly increased, and he wouldn’t have dared to venture into the wild beast territory.

If not for Xu Ran, when facing the tigress, that warm flow coursing through his body gave him a chance to slay the tigress, procure the Peregrine Falcon’s egg, and subsequently obtain the Body Refining Manual.

If not for Xu Ran, the Peregrine Falcon wouldn’t have hatched so quickly, and in the battle against the Demon Tiger, it wouldn’t have been there to assist, allowing him to slay it and obtain its Heart Blood.

Everything that happened was because of Xu Ran, and Xu Binghu was well aware of this.

”How strong are you now?” Old Qi inquired.

Xu Binghu clenched his fist, felt the power carefully, and then replied, ”Old Qi, it’s already 1,000 pounds.”

”1,000 pounds!!!”

Hearing this number, Old Qi exclaimed loudly, stepping back a few paces, eyes wide with extreme surprise.

”Old Qi, is there a problem?” Xu Binghu asked.

It took a while for Old Qi to react, ”There’s a big problem. How could someone increase from 500 pounds to 1,000 pounds with just two body refinement sessions? This speed is too fast.”

The Body Refining Manual not only includes information on body refining but also records of those who have undergone the process, listing the power increases from two body refinement sessions.

Among them, the top rank increased from 500 pounds to 900 pounds, just a 400-pound increase.

Meanwhile, Xu Binghu had a 500-pound increase, doubling it.

”Maybe I’m just naturally talented.”

Though he said this, Xu Binghu knew very well that it was all because of the mysterious substance Xu Ran channeled into his body; otherwise, he’d remain a small Hunter who could only hunt wild rabbits daily.

To prevent Old Qi from dwelling on this matter, he quickly spoke up, ”Old Qi, let me demonstrate for you.”

”Alright.” Old Qi calmed himself, slowly sat down, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

With that said.

Xu Binghu stomped the ground, causing dust to rise from all around. An imposing aura was released, carrying the pressure of the Demon Tiger.

Soon after, his robust arm punched out, and under the moonlight, it was as if a white light flashed past, moving with incredible speed, accompanied by the sound of compressing air.

”Good!” Old Qi couldn’t help but voice his admiration at seeing this punch.

Xu Binghu didn’t stop; he executed a set of Fierce Tiger Descending Mountain Fist, with the airflow around his body moving in sync with him, subtly enhancing his punch strength. Every punch, every palm strike, weighed as if a thousand pounds.

With each move, Old Qi applauded from the sidelines.

Fifteen minutes later, with another stomp from Xu Binghu, dust rose once again.

”Hoo—”

A long exhale signaled the end of the demonstration.

”Good, really good, Binghu. The body refining effect of the Demon Tiger Heart Beast Blood is truly outstanding.”

As he applauded, Old Qi praised.

His face flushed with excitement.

”Thank you, Old Qi, for entrusting me with the Body Refining Manual.”

Old Qi waved his hand, ”It was yours to receive. Without your capability, there’s no way I would’ve given you the Body Refining Manual.”

”You have shown me how powerful body refining can be. One day, Xu Binghu, you’ll become a strong warrior capable of venturing anywhere in the Great Mountain.”

...

Having witnessed Xu Binghu’s incredible advancement, Old Qi departed, content.

Shortly after Old Qi left, the Peregrine Falcon returned, carrying with it a meter-tall goat.

Since Old Qi entered the Xu Family’s courtyard, the Peregrine Falcon had left and hadn’t eaten all afternoon, naturally leaving it hungry.

Xu Binghu picked up the goat, ”You’ve been hungry all afternoon, let me roast it for you now.”

As Xu Binghu and Lian Ji took the goat to the kitchen for preparation, a Vermilion Fruit appeared beside Xu Ran, identical to the one the Peregrine Falcon had eaten by the cliff’s edge earlier.
