Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

With the stabilization of his aura after the breakthrough.

The frenzied absorption of Qi suddenly halted, as if returning to normalcy in an instant. Fang Yu’s perception of Qi remained, but he was no longer able to absorb it as crazily as before.

It was as if a one-time experience card had expired.

No matter how hard Fang Yu tried, he couldn’t initiate that wild state of Qi absorption on his own.

However, that brief experience, the one-time massive absorption of Qi, although only a fraction remained, the sensation of Qi crazily coursing through his body greatly enhanced his perception of Qi.

If at that moment he had a Martial Arts Secret Manual capable of absorbing and utilizing Qi, and he could perform it, he would undoubtedly learn it instantly as if by sudden enlightenment...

Wait!

Sudden enlightenment?

The thought of Organ Control suddenly came to mind.

Perhaps...

Fang Yu immediately took action but soon realized that what he thought was the opening of all the pores on his body, was not the pores in a physical sense, but something else, something beyond his comprehension.

Even using Organ Control, he couldn’t achieve the effects he did during the breakthrough.

”Spring Bud Skill, still not enough.”

”This martial arts, after all, is only for the Grass Realm stage, to prematurely experience and perceive Qi. It has a big gap compared to the orthodox Qi-related martial arts.”

”Unless... I raise its level high enough?”

Quantitative change could lead to qualitative change.

Although the Spring Bud Skill was of a lower grade, just the starting point of flower-level martial arts, if it could be elevated, perhaps it would transform.

Of course, this was only speculation. If he could cultivate another Qi-related martial arts, that would undoubtedly be better.

With Brother Qing’s guarantee, rising to the rank of Demon Foot as a demon should pose no problem.

Once the matter was taken care of, he would immediately ask for a Cultivation Technique for Qi from those Hall Masters above.

You can’t expect the horse to run without feeding it, can you?

At the Tree Realm, the biggest watershed is whether one can control Qi or not.

Fang Yu felt fortunate because now he only lacks a method to retain Qi within his body for use. As for how to use Qi techniques, Yuan Hongxin, his mentor, had already demonstrated in actual combat.

Although Fang Yu did not understand when Yuan Hongxin used Qi at that time since he hadn’t delved into this area, he could now somewhat discern the technique. Plus, during his recent advancement, the Qi-filled baptism that coursed through his body like the confluence of rivers slightly enlightened him on the way Qi worked.

If only the Qi hadn’t dissipated so rapidly, Fang Yu would have attempted to employ Yuan Hongxin’s Qi Explosion Whirlwind right then and there.

After the infusion, his body’s circulation and absorption of Qi greatly improved, as if opening the Governing and Conception vessels, causing a subtle change in his internal structure.

If before reaching Tree Realm, the body was compared to a container, this container had only pin-sized openings for interfacing with the absorption and utilization of Qi.

After the Qi current cylinder of the Tree Realm, it’s as if the silt clogging the container was broken through, and the body, now full of holes, had a tremendous capacity for absorbing and containing Qi.

The result of this comparison is that before the Tree Realm, the body could only circulate stream-level Qi, but after the Tree Realm, it could handle river and sea-level Qi, completely incomparable.

Of course, having this condition does not mean one can achieve it.

Fang Yu’s problems are now focused on two points.

How to retain Qi within the body, and how to manipulate Qi.

He had no clue about the former, and although he had a model to imitate for the latter, he had no actual opportunity to practice.

After all, he had no Qi within him, he could only sense Qi passing through, vanishing from his body, without any control.

As for the previously faint perception of Qi, it was nearly resolved after the Qi Sea infusion, and his Qi perception significantly improved.

”Should I elevate Spring Bud Skill...”

Hesitation flickered through Fang Yu’s mind, but then he decisively pressed on.

[Attribute Points: 13→2.]

[Spring Bud Skill [Flower Level - High Rank / Perfected Mastery] → Spring Bud Skill [Grass Level - Beginner Stage / First Glimpse of the Threshold].]

Involving Qi, it is essentially high-level Cultivation Technique. Like the Spring Bud Skill which nurtures Spirit and Qi perception, it could still be practiced by Zhuo Xueer.

To advance to the level where one can control and cultivate Qi, one would have to start with Martial Arts of at least the Tree Realm.

Martial Arts of the Tree Realm are not something you can simply ask for.

At least, it must be the core of the core to be bestowed.

And Qi-related Cultivation Techniques are even higher grade scarce goods amongst Tree Realm techniques; otherwise, there wouldn’t be the concept of the ”Foolish Underworld” without Qi.

It’s evident that such techniques are tightly held by those in power, and it’s almost impossible for them to pass them on unless you are definitely one of their own.

This is the case with the Foolish Underworld, and the Five Great Families, the Three Major Martial Arts Schools are probably in a similar situation.

Such matters, Fang Yu would inquire with Hei Ao and others later, expecting to find similar situations.

Therefore, improving the Spring Bud Skill, seeking a path within it, might actually be a more reliable direction.

”I have Organ Control ability that’s nearly at a genius template level, and Yuan Hongxin’s live combat as a reference, can’t I research and come up with a result?”

Immediately, Fang Yu closed his eyes to contemplate.
