"No wonder this Ghost Head Stronghold has squatted near Qinghe Town for so long without being eliminated. Besides being easy to defend and hard to attack, it’s also because the strength of their several stronghold leaders is too formidable."
Walking back, Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
Even the Third Village Chief, Wu Yong, who has the Vajra Body, possesses the strength of the Inner Qi Realm. The Second Village Chief is already a third-class expert, though slightly weaker than his master Liu Dong, still exists on the same level. Not to mention the supposedly strongest and most mysterious Great Village Chief.
Bai Ziyue estimated that even if the so-called Great Village Chief is not a second-class expert, he has definitely reached the peak of a third-class expert, not inferior to Elder Nie Yunhao.
On the streets, with the people of Ghost Head Stronghold having fled, crowds gradually started to return, and shops that had been closed out of fear began to reopen.
Thinking of the little dog at home, Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but walk to a congee shop, using a bamboo tube to get a bowl of congee to take away.
Back at his residence, Bai Ziyue immediately set his eyes on the wooden box.
"Huh?"
Bai Ziyue was slightly startled; the little dog was gone.
But soon, he discovered the little dog’s whereabouts.
At this moment, the little dog was lying under a table, its head held high, not moving for a long time.
Seeing the peculiar posture of the dog, Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but chuckle. Then he quickly noticed a drop of blood suddenly falling, landing directly in the dog’s mouth.
As the blood entered its mouth, it let out a sound that resembled a cheer, its whole body shivering, and its eyes squinted in happiness.
Only then did Bai Ziyue realize that the blood was from the Snake Demon Flesh he had casually placed on the table earlier, slowly dripping down after gathering.
"This little guy is indeed smart."
Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but praise.
The flesh and blood of the Snake Demon were extraordinary, with strands of Spiritual Qi contained within.
For someone like Bai Ziyue who practiced martial arts, consuming it could increase strength and enhance Qi and blood, and it naturally had a similar effect for the little dog.
Moreover, small drops of blood, with limited Spiritual Qi, were more suitable for its absorption at this moment.
At least from its appearance, it looked much better than it did in the morning.
"Awoo."
Upon hearing Bai Ziyue’s return, the little dog growled warily. Seeing Bai Ziyue make no other movements, it raised its head again, waiting for the next drop of snake blood.
Seeing this, Bai Ziyue knew it must be hungry. Remembering the bowl of congee he specially fetched, he quickly found a porcelain bowl and poured the congee from the bamboo tube into it before approaching the dog.
But it seemed very cautious. Despite its injured leg, it limped quickly away from Bai Ziyue.
Bai Ziyue did not mind this, placing the congee where the dog used to stay.
This little dog had been living a difficult life, often going hungry. Having not eaten the whole day, the drops of Snake Demon blood were insufficient, and it was starving.
Smelling the aroma of the congee, its stomach immediately growled with hunger.
However, even though it was extremely hungry, it remained vigilant, not moving, looking both at the congee and Bai Ziyue, occasionally growling in threat.
Frowning, Bai Ziyue decided not to bother with it anymore and returned to his room.
...
Back in his room, Bai Ziyue impatiently pulled out a book from his belongings, along with several porcelain bottles.
"Vajra Glazed Body!"
Looking at these five characters on the book cover, Bai Ziyue’s breathing became rapid.
Finally, he had managed to obtain this cultivation technique.
As for the porcelain bottles, they contained the Heart Protection Pills necessary for training in the Inner Cultivation Technique.
Including the three bottles exchanged this time, plus the two pills he had obtained from Zhang Bo earlier, he now had over three bottles in total, totaling eleven Heart Protection Pills.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Ziyue suddenly regretted using up the Soul Calming Incense earlier. It would have been perfect for use now.
Nonetheless, he forced himself to calm down and slowly opened the secret manual of the Inner Cultivation Technique, Vajra Glazed Body.
"As expected, the Inner Cultivation Technique involves using the power within to temper the internal organs.
Yet, these parts are naturally soft, and any excess power can result in the shattering of internal organs.
Especially at the initial stage, when the organs are the weakest, the first to be cultivated is often the fundamental heart.
If too much power is poured in carelessly, it could lead to a shattering heart, potentially causing self-inflicted death."
Therefore, this Inner Cultivation requires one to control their strength with utmost precision.
Of course, to prevent accidents, it’s best to consume a Heart Protection Pill during cultivation to protect the heart and other organs."
After a long time, Bai Ziyue slowly put down the Vajra Glazed Body secret manual, a hint of enlightenment appearing on his face.
The cultivation of a Martial Artist involves External Forging and Internal Cultivation.
Among these, External Forging deals with tendons, bones, and skin, and then the Bone Marrow Essence. When the essence penetrates thoroughly, it reaches the peak of External Forging.
Internal Cultivation, on the other hand, focuses on the five viscera and six bowels. Unlike the skin, membrane, and flesh, which can be trained freely using power.
Internal Cultivation requires delicate control.
Only when the influx of power is refined to a certain extent can it avoid damaging one’s five viscera and six bowels.
"According to the Vajra Glazed Body manual, when a Martial Artist is able to control power to the extent of holding a piece of tofu and injecting power without destroying the tofu itself, they can officially begin Internal Cultivation.
And yet, I have long since reached such a level."
Bai Ziyue’s eyes flashed with brilliance.
In fact, a year ago, when his strength had reached the peak of External Forging, his control over power had already achieved what was described in the Vajra Glazed Body, where power could be exerted without damaging the tofu itself.
And now, with Bai Ziyue having trained several External Forging Techniques to their peak, and subsequently integrating all External Forging Techniques, he had reached a state of flawless cohesion where every part of his body could exert power. His control over power had long since reached a peak unimaginable to the average person.
Bai Ziyue could even punch out forcefully, hitting the tofu without breaking it, but shattering the wooden board beneath it.
Effortlessly lifting the light as if it were heavy, lifting the heavy as if it were light.
"So for me, the first threshold of cultivating Internal Cultivation Techniques has been eliminated. I can skip the power cultivation phase and directly start the formal cultivation of Internal Cultivation."
Bai Ziyue thought to himself, his hands moving quickly as he opened a porcelain bottle and poured out a silver-white pill.
It was the Heart Protection Pill.
Swallowing the Heart Protection Pill in one gulp, almost instantly, Bai Ziyue felt a special force rushing into his body, and then entering his five viscera and six bowels, directly protecting his heart.
"Now is the time."
Bai Ziyue’s eyes brightened, he immediately calmed his mind and concentrated, a surge of power rapidly manifested.
Then, under his control, the power within his body, so weak it seemed nonexistent, directly followed a specific trajectory and flowed into his heart.
Thud!
It was like a startling thunder, yet like nothing had happened, just the special heartbeat.
When the surge of power completely dissipated, a hint of astonishment appeared on Bai Ziyue’s face.
"I actually didn’t feel any pain."
Bai Ziyue truly felt an odd sensation, "If that’s the case, even if I don’t use the Heart Protection Pill, it won’t have a significant impact.
In fact, I can increase the influx of power..."
Increasing the influx of power is indeed possible. However, it requires him to carefully experiment step by step to ensure that the influx of power into the heart neither causes damage nor weakens the efficiency because the power is too weak.
Fortunately, for Bai Ziyue, this was not difficult.
With his near-perfect control over power, he was well aware of how much power to inject.
After one surge of power dissipated, another surge flowed in.
Endless streams of power quickly rushed into his heart, constantly strengthening it. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Gradually, he felt a slight change in his heart.
Its beats seemed to become stronger, driving the blood in his body to flow like boiling magma, roaring and rushing wildly.
"Even though not very noticeable, it indeed has been enhanced."
With Bai Ziyue’s terrifying physical control abilities, he naturally noticed the slight increase in power, and his heart immediately became excited.
He had lingered at the peak of External Forging for too long. Now, finally feeling an increase in his strength, even if slight, greatly excited him.
...
Time slowly passed, the sun outside gradually slanted west, and the long period of cultivation and constant consumption of power made Bai Ziyue feel hungry. He quickly stopped and walked out of the room.
Cultivation emphasizes alternating work with rest. Now that he had truly acquired the Internal Cultivation Technique and formally started cultivating, he no longer felt as urgent as at the beginning.
Time is still very abundant for him.
He glanced at the direction of the little dog. At this moment, the porridge in the porcelain bowl had already been licked clean by it.
Indeed, even if its heart was resistant, its body was still very obedient...
At this time, it was still in the same position as when he first entered, waiting expectantly for the blood to drip from the table.
However, as time passed, the blood of the Snake Demon became increasingly sparse.
It often took more than half an hour for another drop to gather and fall.
But it seemed to have immense patience by nature, always maintaining the same posture, continuously waiting, waiting until the blood truly dripped...
