Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

”First, let’s bring the Blood Boiling Secret Skill to perfection.”

”I wonder if, after cultivating it to perfection, I could form the second stage of the Blood Boiling Secret Skill based on my research and insights during this time.”

Lin Zheyu thought spontaneously.

A cultivation technique must be practicable to manifest in the consciousness.

Lin Zheyu had been contemplating methods to freely operate and halt the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, gaining some insights.

However, because he hadn’t cultivated this secret skill to perfection, his understanding of the Blood Boiling Secret Skill was not yet thorough enough.

He originally thought that since there was plenty of time along the way, he could contemplate and cultivate slowly on the road.

Having just broken through the limit, Lin Zheyu cleared his mind, thought it over carefully, and decided to use Source Power to enhance the Blood Boiling Secret Skill.

Then he devoted most of his time to improving his fist technique, which would be better.

The improvement of fist techniques requires a wealth of life experiences and realizations to form one’s own unique Martial Dao belief.

These experiences and realizations in life cannot be gained out of thin air with Source Power.

But the Blood Boiling Secret Skill can be directly enhanced with Source Power.

Gurgle gurgle—

Once again, he took out the water pouch and drank all the medicinal soup inside.

This water pouch contained the medicinal power of three doses of Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup, enough for his enhancement this time.

The enhancement of the Blood Boiling Secret Skill hardly affected the body, as the medicinal power was mainly used to recover from the weakness caused by just breaking through the limit.

’Use one unit of Source Power to enhance the Blood Boiling Secret Skill.’

The thought conveyed, a vast mysterious energy surged from deep within the cells, drawing upon the medicinal power in his abdomen, rapidly restoring his body.

Meanwhile, Lin Zheyu’s spirit blurred, falling into the space of consciousness.

In this space, he began to cultivate the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, trying tirelessly time and again.

The Blood Boiling Secret Skill was just a hair’s breadth away from being elevated to the perfect level, lacking only the personal experience of the skill’s operation and use.

In the consciousness space, Lin Zheyu continuously operated the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, his aura rising wildly, and his Essence, Qi, and Spirit began to burn intensely.

Intense pain transmitted from the spirit and body.

He felt unbearably hot all over, with terrifying strength continuously surging forth, and vast Qi Blood force constantly being generated, making his blood vessels seem as if they were about to burst.

This is the state after using the Blood Boiling Secret Skill.

Very strong, but also very painful.

It requires enduring the terrifying ordeal from both the spirit and body.

In the process of continuously breaking through limits, Lin Zheyu’s spirit became extremely resilient, and the physical pain did not bother him much.

Back when he was cultivating the Hundred Refinements Treasure Canon, the pain he endured was much worse than this.

Three minutes later, the effect of the Blood Boiling Secret Skill faded, and Lin Zheyu fell into a state of extreme weakness, but in the consciousness space, his body quickly recovered again.

Then, he used the Blood Boiling Secret Skill once more, experiencing the surge of power again.

Thus the cycle repeated.

Time after time, tirelessly, endlessly.

Lin Zheyu did not know exactly how many times he used the Blood Boiling Secret Skill.

Although in the consciousness space his body could recover indefinitely, recovering the consumed spirit was very difficult.

Having just broken through the limit, the spirit was already fatigued.

And now he was enhancing the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, a cultivation technique extremely draining of Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

As his understanding of the Blood Boiling Secret Skill rapidly advanced, his spirit also depleted swiftly.

A few breaths later.

Lin Zheyu opened his eyes, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, his spirit listless.

He felt as if his head was about to explode, a sign of excessive mental fatigue.

”Hiss—”

Lin Zheyu gasped for breath.

It was his first time using Source Power to enhance such a mentally draining cultivation technique, each use exhausting his Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

The one entering the consciousness space is the spirit; the body is illusory and thus can recover infinitely.

However, the spirit is real, and the loss of spirit is real and solid.

Using too much Source Power at once for enhancement significantly consumes spirit; Lin Zheyu couldn’t bear it even when he used five units of Source Power previously.

Because the spirit would be excessively depleted.

”Hiss, it feels like my head is going to explode.”

Lin Zheyu constantly kneaded his temples, the over-depleted spirit feeling extremely uncomfortable; he didn’t even dare to look at the data in his consciousness.

After pressing for a while, he didn’t feel any relief.

Lin Zheyu suddenly thought of the Soul Secret Skill in the Seven Evils Ghost Canon and immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, began visualizing the Furious Vajra, and recited the Purifying Heart Spell.

The Furious Vajra Visualization Map, being merely a simple hand-drawn image, had almost no effect.

But the effect of the Purifying Heart Spell was great; after reciting for half an hour, the pain in his head eased a lot, no longer feeling as if it would burst open like before.

”Phew~~”

After meditating for another half an hour, Lin Zheyu opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath of turbid air.

Although still quite uncomfortable, it had eased considerably.

”In the future, using Source Power to enhance cultivation techniques like the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, which greatly depletes the spirit, needs to be done with caution.”

”At the very least, it shouldn’t be used when the body has just broken through its limits and the spirit is exceedingly fatigued.”

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

If he used Source Power to enhance the Blood Boiling Secret Skill when his spirit was in a peak state, he might just find it a bit uncomfortable without feeling like his entire head was about to explode.

”Xiaohei, let’s go back.”

Lin Zheyu forced himself to stand up and called to Xiaohei in the distance.

Hearing this, Xiaohei swooshed over to him, looking at Lin Zheyu with eager eyes, waiting for Lin Zheyu to put the heavy armor on him.

Previously, Lin Zheyu always did this, strapping part of the heavy armor onto Xiaohei to share the burden.

But after using Source Power today, although he was mentally exhausted, his physical condition had returned to its peak, so he didn’t need Xiaohei to help share the burden.

”This time, I don’t need you to do that; just carry this beast back.”

Lin Zheyu pointed to the beast on the ground and said.

Not long after.

A man and a beast swiftly shuttled through the mountain forest, returning to the camp.

”Mr. Zhao~~”

Liang Yunhui greeted with a smile.

She jogged forward and skillfully took over the beast that Xiaohei was carrying and lifted it up, placing it in front of Liang Yuhan.

”Mrs. Liang, sorry to trouble you.”

Lin Zheyu said to Liang Yuhan.

They had a clear division of labor.

Xiaohei hunted the beasts, Liang Yuhan processed the beast corpses, and after processing, they barbecued together.

In this unfamiliar barren mountain, hunting fierce beasts at night was no easy task; most people could only eat some dry food.

Only on occasion, when luck favored them, could they hunt some wild beasts.

Only Xiaohei, being a fierce beast with extraordinary talent, could easily and quickly hunt wild beasts.

Of course, the people of Guangxuan Escort Agency, with their rich experience and strong capabilities, could also often hunt some wild beasts for barbecue.

”Mm.”

Liang Yuhan softly responded, not saying much.

She took out a dagger, retrieved the water pouch, and began processing the beast’s fur.

Liang Yunhui, after playing with Xiaohei for a while, also went to help her mother process the beast’s corpse.

Under Lin Zheyu’s instruction, Xiaohei quickly dashed into the forest to collect firewood.

Everything was orderly, and the surrounding people, seeing Lin Zheyu having beasts to barbecue again, couldn’t help but cast envious glances.
