Advancing in the Blood Qi Realm!
After the night, Su Jie felt refreshed. The blood in his body seemed to be thicker.
The process of refining blood was to transform one’s blood and Qi to produce new blood of a higher quality and dig out the potential of the body!
The transformation of Qi and blood brought many benefits. Not only was he more energetic but he was also in high spirits despite not sleeping for a few days. With the eruption of his Qi and blood’s power, his combat strength greatly increased and even his aptitude and foundation improved!
Name: Su Jie (Fifteen-years-old)
Remaining Lifespan: 46 years
Soul imprints: 0
Mastery of Martial Arts: Ape Demon King Kong Fist (Compatibility: 73%. Cultivation Progress: 22%, Fourth level.), Body Hardening Technique (Compatibility: 69%. Cultivation Progress: 100%, Third level.), Green Wood Blood Refining Technique (Compatibility: 11%. Cultivation Progress: 1%, Entry Level).
Su Jie opened the attribute panel and saw the change in his basic information. Thanks to his robust foundation, his cultivation progress in the Green Wood Blood Refining Technique reached 1% of the entry level overnight.
“11% compatibility…”
Su Jie also saw that his compatibility with the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique was quite low. It was only 11%!
“Alright, I wonder if the ape avatar can cultivate the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique!”
Su Jie did not forget about the ape avatar and tried to let it cultivate the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique.
In the Yinchuan Mountain, the huge ape avatar sat cross-legged and cultivated the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique.
However, Su Jie felt rather helpless as the ape avatar only had extremely high compatibility with the Body Hardening Technique and the Ape Demon King Kong Fist. There were no obstacles for him to cultivate them.
In contrast, while it could cultivate the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique, its cultivation speed was also average despite being stronger than Su Jie. It was not as fast as he had imagined!
“It seems that the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique is not very suitable for the ape avatar. I have to find a more suitable Blood Refinement Technique for the ape avatar.”
Su Jie thought to himself.
Su Jie’s compatibility with the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique was also not high. The reason why he chose to cultivate this Blood Refinement Technique was mainly that it could increase his lifespan. It was very important to Su Jie!
As for the ape avatar, Su Jie did not let it continue cultivating the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique. There should be a more suitable Blood Refinement Technique for it!
Although his compatibility with the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique was average, Su Jie’s foundation was strong so his cultivation speed was not slow.
Three days passed. This morning, Su Jie, who had been cultivating all night, felt slight dizziness in his head. He looked in the mirror and saw that his face was slightly pale.
“This is because I’ve consumed too much blood and Qi. When I cultivate them, my blood and Qi will be purified and consumed every cycle. I… need to replenish my blood!”
Su Jie understood that it was because he had been cultivating the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique for the past three days.
Just like how martial arts consumed physical strength, refining blood would also consume blood and qi, causing them to be depleted!
For a powerful martial artist to cultivate their body and blood to the peak, the resources consumed would not be small. This was also one of the reasons why powerful martial artists were rare!
“I should go and ask Master if there’s a way to replenish blood.” Su Jie did not hesitate and immediately asked Wang Changqing.
Wang Changqing was a Blood Qi Realm martial artist, so he must have also experienced the loss of blood and Qi. He should have experience.
“Huh? You ran out of Qi and blood so quickly? I thought it would take you at least half a month to encounter such a situation.”
When Wang Changqing learned of this, he could not help but be slightly surprised.
Wang Changqing naturally did not know that Su Jie had a strong foundation. His blood refinement efficiency was high and his consumption was correspondingly greater. Therefore, in just three days, his blood and qi began to run out.
“I have a prescription for Blood-Nourishing Soup here. It’s good for improving Qi and replenishing blood. The concoction is also simple and suitable for martial artists to break through to the Qi and Blood Realm. However, you have to prepare the herbs for it yourself. It’s not cheap.”
Soon after, Wang Changqing took out a prescription from the room and handed it to Su Jie. This was also the prescription that Wang Changqing used when he refined his blood.
“Thank you, Master!”
Su Jie thanked him gratefully. Be it the blood cultivation technique or the prescription for the Blood Nourishing Soup, they were both difficult to buy with money. It was already generous of Wang Changqing to be willing to take them out for free!
“Haha! I’m not rich. My ability is limited. You’re Ah Wu’s son and my grand-disciple. I’ll help you if I can. Cultivate hard and enter the Blood Qi realm as soon as possible. I hope that you can surpass me in the future.”
Wang Changqing smiled. He liked peace and quiet. He lived alone in seclusion and enjoyed life. He was quite devoted to his only disciple and grand disciple.
“That’s not cheap…”
Su Jie took the prescription and went to the nearest city to buy the herbs needed for the Blood-Nourishing Soup. He clicked his tongue.
One portion of Blood-Nourishing Soup was worth 300 taels of silver alone. This was because of the prescription.
If he didn’t have the prescription, he would probably have to spend 500 taels to buy a portion of Blood-Nourishing Soup!
As expected, cultivating martial artists spent money like flowing water!
Fortunately, Su Jie retained the spoils when he wiped out the Black Wolf Bastion bandits previously. In addition to the money he had accumulated during the bandit extermination, he had a total of 15,000 taels of silver.
This money should be enough for him to cultivate the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique to the first level, causing his blood and qi to transform and enter the Blood Qi Realm!
After spending three to four days, Su Jie purchased enough medicinal herbs and returned to Qingye Mountain. He made a large pot. Under Wang Changqing’s guidance, he put in enough medicinal herbs and began to brew the Blood Nourishing Soup.
An hour later, a portion of nourishing blood soup was completed.
When night came, Su Jie poured the nourishing blood soup into a wooden bathtub filled with water. He took off his clothes and stepped into it to soak it.
Su Jie could feel the pores of his body had opened up and was greedily absorbing the medicinal power of the medicinal soup. This quickly replenished Su Jie’s depleted blood and Qi and a warm current flowed through his entire body.
“Awesome!”
Su Jie couldn’t help but praise it. This feeling was too wonderful. It was like the dew after a long drought. It made Su Jie feel energetic as if he had endless energy!
When the medicinal effect of the Blood Nourishing Soup was completely absorbed, Su Jie began a new round of blood refinement.
The blood in Su Jie’s body began to flow faster and his heart was beating rapidly. It was beating more than 300 times a minute. Without a strong foundation, he would not be able to withstand the process of refining blood!
Su Jie could feel that his blood and qi were transforming, becoming thicker and more vital!
Time passed minute by minute. With a strong foundation and the nourishment of the Blood Nourishing Soup, Su Jie’s improvement was rapid. His Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique gradually advanced towards its boundary and broke through.
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed since Su Jie came to Qingye Mountain.
That night, in the room where Su Jie lived, he sat cross-legged and refined his blood as usual.
Finally, the blood in Su Jie’s body circulated faster. New blood was born from his bone marrow and his ability to create blood had greatly increased!
Whoosh!
Su Jie heard the sound of running water. It was his flowing blood!
Whoosh!
The dense qi and blood on the surface of Su Jie’s body turned into mist that enveloped his body like a thin veil, emitting a pressure that made one’s breathing quicken.
A fragrance filled the room, like the fresh smell of flowers and trees!
“I’ve broken through… My Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique has reached the first level and I have successfully entered the ranks of the Blood Qi Realm martial artists!”
Su Jie opened his eyes, unable to hide his joy.
After three months of bitter cultivation and spending ten thousand taels of silver on nourishing blood soups, Su Jie had finally successfully cultivated the first level of the Green Wood Blood Refinement Technique and entered the first transformation of the Blood Qi Realm, the realm of Blood Qi tulle!
