Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Chapter 406: Chapter 165: Limit

Lin Zheyu felt an unprecedented strength in his body.

He clenched his fists, muscles swelling on his arms, and with a light swing of his fist, the air trembled, making a soft sound.

After a brief test of his power, Lin Zheyu stopped.

This energy was painstakingly cultivated by him and couldn’t be allowed to dissipate freely.

He immersed his right hand into a basin of water, closed his eyes, and sent out his thoughts.

’Use one unit of source power to cultivate the Purple Thunder Blood Coagulation Skill.’

In an instant, his spirit went into a trance, entering the space of consciousness.

The constantly dissipating life energy and qi blood energy halted abruptly upon entering the consciousness space.

The foundation of martial arts, damaged by using the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill, was instantly restored, with life energy quickly merging into his body.

Lin Zheyu began his endless cultivation.

After a few breaths.

Lin Zheyu slowly opened his eyes.

He hurriedly operated the Turtle Breath True Skill to cover the massive fluctuations of qi blood energy, returning to a plain appearance.

But this was only the surface. A powerful martial artist with keen senses could easily sense the terrifying qi blood energy hidden within him.

Having undergone the Nine Transformations of Qi and Blood and entering the Qi Blood Dragon Realm, the highly condensed qi blood energy was difficult to fully conceal, even with the Turtle Breath True Skill.

[Heaven Rewards Diligence]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 31

Skills:

Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill (Perfection)

Turtle Breath True Skill (Sixth Layer 0%)

Golden Swan Skill (Tenth Layer 100%)

Purple Thunder Tyrant Fist (Seventh Layer 100%)

Spiritual Mysterious Body Skill (Fifth Layer 100%)

Purple Thunder Blood Coagulation Skill (First Layer 52%)

”Indeed!”

”Without using the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill, one unit of source power only increased progress by about three percent.”

”It’s far from the nine percent.”

Lin Zheyu looked at the data within his consciousness, and the change in data confirmed his previous speculation.

He calmed his mind and carefully felt the powerful qi blood energy flowing through his body.

The total amount of qi and blood had increased again.

This time the increase in total qi blood was slightly more than before, but not significantly so.

”Does the Qi Blood Realm have limits?”

”If it could be endlessly enhanced, then even without comprehending True Intent, the strength would far surpass that of a martial artist of Transforming Force.”

”No, perhaps it might even surpass a Grandmaster!”

Feeling the powerful strength within himself, a vast ambition inadvertently surged in Lin Zheyu’s heart.

The stronger the qi blood, the more terrifying the enhancement to the physique.

When Lin Zheyu initially broke through the Qi Blood Six Transformations, his physique, which was already comparable to that of a fearsome beast of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, was greatly enhanced.

It reached a level comparable to that fearsome beast of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm with astonishing defense.

The pure physical strength was even comparable to a martial artist of the Qi Blood Four Transformations.

Now.

After advancing to the Qi Blood Nine Transformations and entering the Qi Blood Dragon Realm, Lin Zheyu’s physique became increasingly terrifying.

With just physical strength, he might not even be inferior to a weaker Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artist.

If he continues to improve like this, purely with physical strength, he might reach a terrifying level that could rival a martial artist of Transforming Force.

”Thinking too far, the total amount of qi blood has limits; the quality of qi blood should also have limits.”

”One day, the strength of qi and blood will reach the limit that the body can endure.”

Lin Zheyu smiled gently, dispelling the distracting thoughts in his heart.

Like the total amount of qi blood, the number of qi blood transformations also has a limit; it cannot be increased indefinitely.

It doesn’t even need to reach the limit.

When one day I need a hundred, or even a thousand, units of source power for each transformation, Lin Zheyu will give up directly.

With so much source power, used elsewhere, his strength would have an earth-shattering change.

Having adapted to the enhanced strength.

Lin Zheyu operated the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill to lock the life essence and qi blood again.

When it operated to the sixth revolution, it reverted to around the Qi Blood Eight Transformations strength.

To be precise, the strength didn’t change, but the total amount decreased.

After the total amount decreased, in the same physical vessel, spreading throughout the body, the qi blood became more diluted.

With such a diluted concentration of qi and blood, the Turtle Breath True Skill could perfectly conceal the fluctuations of qi and blood.

Poof~~

Rumble~~

Lin Zheyu walked out of the courtyard.

The Purple Thunder Tyrant Fist burst forth, the fist wind billowed, and within the rise and fall of the chest, there was a deep and powerful rumble of muffled thunder.

This sound became louder as his physique strengthened.

Although locking most of the qi and blood, and life energy with the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill.

His strength was still significantly stronger than before.

The essence of qi and blood is unchanged.

Only the total amount has changed.

The decrease in total amount caused the concentration of qi and blood throughout the body to become thin.

Yet, when gathered together, one unit of qi blood energy remained at the strength of the ninefold qi blood transformation.

”Truly the Qi Blood Dragon Realm!”

”Under full exertion, it doesn’t lose to the power intensity of using the Qi and Blood Burst Skill at the Eight Transformation Tier.”

”However, locking most of the life essence and qi blood with the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill is like crippling my strength; endurance still isn’t enough.”

”I must find a true concealing breath skill.”

”And the Golden Swan Skill also needs to be improved again.”

Lin Zheyu pondered to himself.

After advancing to the Qi Blood Dragon Realm, his qi blood strength reached an incredibly astonishing level.

If he adds the Qi and Blood Burst Skill on top of it, this terrifying explosive power is something even he couldn’t fully control.

He needs to re-cultivate to adapt.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to execute exquisite lightweight skills.

Today he couldn’t continue using source power to enhance.

Having used too much source power in a short time, his spirit was somewhat overexerted now.
