Chapter 110 Blood Qi Refining Marrow
What is a blood prince?
It is an existence comparable to the Great Jing Martial Saint!
Yu Xiao suspected that Nathaniel was a vampire prince mainly based on two points.
First, Morton has the cultivation level equivalent to that of a bone refining master or the fifth level of Qi refining.
As Morton's backer, Nathaniel is most likely not weaker than Morton, at least comparable to the Grand Master of Marrow Refining.
Yu Xiao always tries to overestimate his opponents as much as possible, so he would naturally raise his estimate a little higher, and therefore speculated that Nathaniel was a prince-level vampire.
Second, speculation from the perspective of national strength.
The heyday of the British Empire is in the past, but it is still the undisputed world hegemon.
This empire has enjoyed seventy years of heyday thanks to the productivity breakthroughs brought about by the Industrial Revolution and unscrupulous overseas plunder and colonization.
Such a strong national strength.
Resources accumulated over decades.
Dozens of colonies with rich populations to support.
Under such circumstances, the strength of the blood clan must be at its highest level in thousands of years, so it would not be surprising if they gave birth to several princes.
Of course.
It's all speculation.
But no matter whether Nathaniel is a blood prince or not, he should be taken seriously and never taken lightly.
Not only does he have a huge army, strong ships and powerful guns behind him, but he is also surrounded by more than one master like Morton.
It is both a threat and an opportunity.
Yu Xiao came into the stone hall.
First, I took inventory of the resources at hand.
So far.
There are a total of thirty-five Blood Marrow Pills in reserve.
There are thirty-two ordinary blood marrow pills, two top-grade blood marrow pills, and one ultimate blood marrow pill.
There are only fourteen Lingshen Pills in total.
Eleven ordinary Lingshen Pills and three top-grade Lingshen Pills made from two thousand year old ancient medicine.
The resources for cultivation are quite abundant.
However, we encountered two problems.
First, the red jade horns that Yu Xiao collected during the Ascension Conference have been used up.
The red chalcedony extracted from red jade horns is one of the two main materials for refining blood marrow pills.
Not enough material.
How to refine blood marrow pill?
This problem must be solved.
The second reason is that the recent acquisition of the thousand-year-old ancient medicine was not smooth, which resulted in the production of Lingshen Dan not meeting expectations.
however.
This is also impossible.
Who put Dajing in a state of war?
The Dajing court is now conducting very strict inspections on merchants and travelers from the Guangyue direction and prohibiting the influx of all kinds of materials.
England used its powerful fleet to form a blockade at sea, attempting to cut off overseas aid from entering the "Great Xia Kingdom".
Although Yu Xiao had prepared for a rainy day, he had some secret routes of the escort agency, as well as several overseas trading companies including Williams Trading Company, available.
However, it still brings great trouble to the procurement of materials, and this is unlikely to change in a short period of time.
Some trouble.
But it's not a big problem.
Digest the resources in your hands first!
Thinking of this, Yu Xiao went straight back to Xiaozhu Valley and started a new round of cultivation.
Let’s start with Isao Aoki’s breakthrough!
Yu Xiao had previously attempted to reach the fifth level of Qi Refining but failed, so he went to the sect to exchange for the physical cultivation technique, Moving Mountains Technique.
now.
There has been some initial success in moving mountains.
It plays a significant auxiliary role in breaking through the realm.
After Yu Xiao came back, he spent three months cultivating his character and calming himself down from the worldly disturbances of Dajing.
Of course, I was not idle either.
Yu Xiao practices the Mountain Moving Technique every day. This technique can not only strengthen the blood and energy, but is also beneficial to the growth of magic power.
Three months later.
The skill of moving mountains has improved.
The world of immortal cultivation generally likes to divide the levels of cultivation of auxiliary techniques or spells into: initial understanding, mastery, great success, and transformation.
At present, the level of practicing the Mountain Moving Skill is at the initial stage.
Although Yu Xiao could use Zhen Yue, one of the three mountain-moving moves, the process was still somewhat sluggish and stiff, and he could not use the last two moves, which were more powerful.
Of course, it is extremely difficult to practice any technique or spell to perfection!
Yu Xiao has been practicing "Mountain Moving Kung Fu" for less than a year.
It's amazing to even have a glimpse of the trick.
The body-refining exercises focus on the body and take the method as a supplement, so the practice process emphasizes the physical body more and neglects the spiritual roots.
Yu Xiao’s aptitude in martial arts was not very good in the past.
You can eat dozens of Blood Marrow Pills.
Greatly improve your physical condition.
This is the main reason why Yu Xiao was able to master the Mountain Moving Skill in just half a year. Otherwise, with his previous qualifications, he might not be able to master it even if he had five times more time!
"It feels almost done!"
After three months of recuperation, Yu Xiao felt that his spirit, body and mind had all reached their best condition.
Unlike a few months ago.
Yu Xiao felt that there was a great chance of a breakthrough this time. With just one top-grade Lingshen Pill, he would have about a 60 to 70 percent chance of success.
of course.
It’s not like we don’t have the resources.
Why bet on the odds?
Yu Xiao directly took two top-grade spiritual ginseng pills and then began to practice in seclusion.
This time there were no obstacles.
When the Dantian Qi Sea absorbed the huge and pure spiritual power, the fifth spiritual power vortex arm was quickly condensed successfully.
Fifth level of Qi training!
Officially achieved!
When your cultivation achieves a breakthrough.
The spiritual power vortex formed by five spiral arms was running in the Dantian, improving the absorption and refining of spiritual energy, the reserve of spiritual power, and the output of mana by at least 50%.
"very good!"
"Finally a breakthrough!"
There are still eleven ordinary Lingshen pills left in his hand.
Although these resources cannot allow Yu Xiao to break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining, it should not be a problem for him to cultivate to the middle and late stages of the fifth level of Qi Refining.
The next period of time.
Did not continue practicing.
Focus on consolidating your state of mind.
In the blink of an eye, a month and a half has passed.
The fifth level of Qi training has become very solid.
The next training plan is to break through the martial arts blood and energy.
Currently in the middle stage of bone refining.
Blood Qi cultivation is very dependent on effort and resources.
Fortunately, Yu Xiao has enough time to work hard, and he has plenty of resources for blood and qi cultivation.
Just refining the marrow.
What's the difficulty?
However, just as Yu Xiao was planning a new round of training, Luo Xiaoshan, whom he hadn't seen for half a year, came to Xiaozhu Valley again.
"Brother Yu!"
Luo Xiaoshan has changed a lot.
He didn't practice the breath-retaining technique. So Yu Xiao could tell at a glance that this guy had broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.
Not only that.
Although Luo Xiaoshan's Qinglan Valley disciple robe looks similar to Yu Xiao's at first glance, if you look closely you will find subtle differences.
The material and fabric are of higher quality, and it comes with a formation for purifying clothes, and there are subtle patterns on the corners of the clothes.
Yu Xiao immediately cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Senior Brother Luo, for breaking through the fourth level of Qi Refining and passing the disciple assessment!"
Obviously.
In these few months.
Luo Xiaoshan successfully broke through.
He succeeded in breaking through before the disciple examination held every five years, and passed the examination as a Qi Refining Level 4 examiner.
From now on, he is no longer an inner sect preparatory disciple, but a formal disciple of Qinglan Valley.
"Brother Yu, this address seems unfamiliar!"
Although Luo Xiaoshan felt a little embarrassed, it was not difficult to tell from the smile on his face that he felt a great sense of accomplishment at the moment!
five years ago.
Ascension Conference.
How brave was Yu Xiao at that time?
Killed several red-horned monkeys by himself.
Myself at that time.
I can only feel the admiration.
Nowadays, times have changed.
Yu Xiao was still at the third level of Qi Refining and was a preparatory disciple. He could only farm in Xiaozhu Valley and no one cared about him.
On the other hand, I have broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining and passed the test in one go. I am already an entry-level disciple with a higher status!
Of course, although he couldn't help feeling proud, Luo Xiaoshan wasn't a mean person who would get carried away by his pride, not to mention that he had been getting along very well with Yu Xiao over the past few years.
Yu Xiao asked the servant of Xiaozhu Valley to dig some new bamboo shoots, and then prepared some side dishes and wine.
The two drank and chatted like they used to.
According to Luo Xiaoshan's description, after passing the disciple assessment, he is currently studying under Elder Jin Qijin.
Elder Jin is one of the foundation-building cultivators in Qinglan Valley. He holds a medium status among the twenty or so elders and currently manages the Executive Pavilion, one of the nine pavilions in Qinglan.
In other words.
Luo Xiaoshan is already a regular disciple of the Pavilion.
Of course, under the Executive Council, there are many sub-institutions and sub-departments. Luo Xiaoshan was assigned to a place called "Procurement Department".
"What? Purchasing Department!"
Yu Xiao's eyes lit up: "Brother Luo, I heard that this is a lucrative job!"
Luo Xiaoshan smiled bitterly: "There are many divisions of labor in the Purchasing Department. After I got in, I was just a runner. Even if there is any lucrative opportunity, it won't be my turn!"
Yu Xiao had other ideas.
After Luo Xiaoshan enters the Purchasing Department, he will be exposed to many channels for purchasing sect resources in the future, which will obviously be useful to him.
For example.
Now there is a lack of red chalcedony.
Yu Xiao can of course go to Yunxi Town or to the sect’s treasure pavilion material warehouse to exchange it.
However, on the one hand, the materials available in these places may not be able to meet the demand in terms of quantity. On the other hand, long-term large-scale exchange and purchase of such precious materials will easily attract the attention or curiosity of others.
This is not in line with Yu Xiao's low-key style.
In the future, some of the needs can be entrusted to Luo Xiaoshan.
This way, we can obtain various materials in a more dispersed manner, and with the purchasing department as a cover, it is very covert.
of course.
in this process.
It can also allow Luo Xiaoshan to make some money.
Luo Xiaoshan sighed and said, "It's a pity that my free time is over. I can't come to Brother Yu's place to eat every other day."
That's what it says.
But such an opportunity lies before us.
Luo Xiaoshan will definitely not give up.
During his nearly two and a half years of chicken farming career, he realized that he was a person who could not sit still.
What's more, after passing the disciple assessment and entering the Purchasing Department, the salary has increased by at least four times compared to the past, and more spirit stones and pills can be received every month.
This increase in income is real!
Shortly after.
Luo Xiaoshan left.
Yu Xiao began to think.
Before I knew it, it has been five years since I joined the sect. Apart from Luo Xiaoshan and Fu Qingfeng, who can barely be considered friends or acquaintances, there are only two disciples left.
Yu Xiao’s social network and relationships in Qinglan Valley are almost non-existent.
of course.
With his current status and position.
Unless he is a new cultivator, any disciple with a bit of experience would probably not bother to make friends with him.
There is nothing we can do about it.
Who made him sit on the bench for so long that he couldn't get a permanent position even after five years of joining? In fact, there were many disciples like Yu Xiao in Qinglan Valley.
Such people.
There is a high probability that you will be on the bench for the rest of your life.
When you get older, you really have no potential anymore.
At that time, they would be given the status of an outer sect deacon, and then sent to a more remote place to manage the sect's marginal assets, which was tantamount to exile in disguise.
Yu Xiao likes to keep a low profile.
But I don't want to be exiled to a remote area.
After all, only by staying near the sect can one enjoy the sect's cultivation resources to the greatest extent.
Whether it is the tens of thousands of secret techniques and skills in the Sutra Library or the various materials in the Treasure Pavilion, they can all play an important role in cultivation.
Yu Xiao decided.
In about two years.
He announced that he had broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.
After making relevant plans, I continued my own practice.
Back and forth.
It took about nine months in total.
Consume fourteen ordinary blood marrow pills.
Yu Xiao practiced the Mountain Moving Skill diligently, allowing his blood and energy to reach the peak of bone refining from the middle stage.
During this period, not only has his blood energy increased significantly, but his practice of Moving Mountains has also made great progress. It is estimated that it will not take long to reach the level of proficiency.
And nine months of diligent practice.
Yu Xiao felt that the time was ripe for a breakthrough.
He then took a top-grade blood marrow pill and practiced for about half a month.
The opportunity has arrived!
No longer hesitate!
He immediately used up the best quality blood essence pill he had, which was made from Morton's blood essence.
Yu Xiao only felt that the veins formed by the blood and energy in his body not only spread throughout his internal organs and limbs, but also penetrated into his bone marrow.
The blood moves.
The momentum is like a rushing stream.
Strengthening the flesh and bones can greatly strengthen the physical constitution.
After the blood, qi and marrow are refined, not only will the physical condition be improved on the original basis, but also powerful life potential can be stimulated.
The main performance lies in recovery!
At this moment, if you make a cut with a knife, the bleeding will stop in five seconds, new flesh will grow in ten seconds, and it will heal completely in about a minute without leaving any scars.
This is the power of the marrow refining grandmaster's physique!
Before this breakthrough in blood, energy and cultivation.
Yu Xiao used all his strength to launch the "Zhen Yue Style".
In fact, he was already close to being a Martial Saint, so he could easily kill Rui Liancheng in seconds.
At this moment, relying on the blood and energy of a grandmaster, plus the mana of the fifth level of Qi training, combined with the body cultivation techniques, even without using spells, magic tools, and talismans, Yu Xiao can completely defeat a martial saint-level existence with just his fists and feet!
