Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Chapter 118: Chapter 73: Beyond Human Capability

Xu She felt that he was exceptionally talented, but despite having the surname Xu, he was not part of the Xu Family and didn’t have enough money to support his martial arts training.

If he had enough silver taels, he believed he could absolutely break through to the Refining Internal Organ Realm level.

”Mr. Xu’s actions are unjust. I’ve been loyal for decades, and not only did he not promote me, but he also promoted a young lad in the Bone Forging Realm who hasn’t even grown up completely.”

”To hell with loyalty!”

”The benefits promised by those bandits are great. Before long, Songyi City might be overtaken by the chaos army, and establishing a good relationship in advance might provide more opportunities.”

Xu She muttered to himself, finally making up his mind.

He had previously gotten in touch with the band of thieves in Lion Valley.

Earlier, Xu She thought that the Feihong Gang was treating him well, and he wanted to continue mixing in the gang, unwilling to enter Lion Valley to live a damp, sticky life filled with poisonous insects and miasma.

But since Lin Zheyu arrived, his mindset changed.

People don’t fear scarcity, but rather inequality.

I worked hard and was loyal for over a decade, contributing so much.

And why does that brat, who just joined Feihong Gang for a few months, get promoted to a position in the Refining Internal Organ Realm? Just because of his talent?

To hell with talent!

Xu She was unwilling, and the benefits promised by those bandits lingered in his mind.

If he had those resources and that much money, he was certain he could advance to the Refining Internal Organ Realm, definitely could.

Xu She muttered to himself.

He didn’t show it, maintaining the same smile as usual, patrolling around, and then gathering with a few skilled guys in the Bone Forging Realm to chat and brag.

After Lin Zheyu walked far away, he turned back and glanced at Xu She.

Even though that brat changed his expression very quickly, his perception was sharp enough to notice the trace of hostility in Xu She’s eyes.

”It’s been so many days, and this guy still holds such hostility toward me.”

Lin Zheyu frowned slightly.

Becoming a leader, the little underlings had no complaints, but those skilled in the Bone Forging Realm were extremely unaccepting deep down.

Why should a young lad in the Mid-Stage of Bone Forging Realm become their leader?

Most of them were Mid-Stage Bone Forging, or even at the Peak, yet they had to take orders from a teenage kid whose strength couldn’t match theirs, feeling somewhat unbalanced.

However, they only spoke sarcastic words in private without daring to express it openly.

”Forget it, just some small fries in the Bone Forging Realm. Upon returning to Songyi City, there won’t be much interaction.”

Lin Zheyu shook his head and didn’t pay them any mind.

He was only stationed at White Stone Mountain for a month and would soon return.

This month is just a change of place to focus on martial arts training and studying the Poison Canon.

Heading south, after passing through a stretch of barren land, a dense forest appeared ahead.

Entering the forest, Lin Zheyu found a secluded spot and started practicing martial arts.

For the past two days, he had been coming to this forest to practice, spending a long time each session.

Bang bang bang.

In the dense forest, the sounds of banging echoed.

Lin Zheyu moved nimbly through the forest, occasionally throwing Wild Bull Fist punches, the power of Qi Blood in his body erupting with a bang, the punch causing the wind to howl.

Having been at White Stone Mountain for five days, on the first day he found an opportunity to break the limit, and now four days later, he could accumulate more Source Power.

Time passed quickly as more than three hours slipped away.

With the purification and enhancement of Qi Blood, his endurance improved significantly. Even when Qi Blood was exhausted, he was far from reaching his physical limit.

Lin Zheyu had made weighted gear; with the ironworks capability in Songyi City, the gear was quite rudimentary.

Although it could reduce the time to break through limits to an hour and a half, he still gave it up.

Wearing the weighted gear caused significant deformation in martial arts movements, and the eruption of force might even cause muscle strain, limiting the training to basic exercises.

By using martial arts to break physical limits, the closer he got to the limit, the more he had an inexplicable comprehension of the Martial Dao cultivation techniques.

This comprehension during exhaustion, the explosion of muscle strength, the operation of Qi Blood, and the profound essence of cultivation techniques.

This experience was incredibly valuable, not something that shortening time could compare to.

”Hoo...”

Lin Zheyu exhaled deeply, sitting weakly against a big tree.

This mountain forest was extremely secluded. On his way there, he had carefully observed to ensure no one was following him.

Even if there were an enemy attack, they would target the iron mine refining area, not here, keeping safety somewhat ensured.

Moreover, the exhaustion time wasn’t prolonged, with Source Power lifting him, any energy provided by sufficient herbs allowed quick recovery.

”Another two units of Source Power.”

Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness and grinned.

Once breaking through to the Qi Blood First Transformation, he might average getting two units of Source Power every three times.

[Heavenly Dao rewards diligence]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 2

Skills:

Wild Bull Fist (Perfection)

Golden Swan Skill (Fifth Layer 40%)

Turtle Breath Skill (Third Layer 2%)

Six Harmonies Blade (Minor Achievement 8%)

Poison King Body (First Layer 0%)

Sitting cross-legged, after squeezing the body to refine a trace of Qi Blood power, the muscle soreness alleviated a lot.

He stood up, using a wooden basin he had prepared earlier to hold a basin of clean water, taking out a leather pouch containing four doses of Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup Powder, and poured the powder into the water.

His hand reached in to stir it evenly, then soaked in it, conveying the thought: ’Use two units of Source Power to enhance the Golden Swan Skill.’

The familiar sensation came, with Lin Zheyu’s Qi Blood rapidly recovering, further purifying the Qi Blood energy by removing impurities under the effect of the mysterious energy.

A few breaths later.

Lin Zheyu exhaled deeply, opened his eyes, and found his Qi Blood was once again abundant.
