Blood Replacement

Lin Xingyu arrived in the backyard and prepared to begin his Martial Path Cultivation.

After yesterday's Martial Soul Awakening, Lin Xingyu's martial realm had reached perfect Ruyi, with body and mind moving as he wished and thought following his heart. He could break through to the second realm of martial arts at any time—Blood Replacement!

If the core of a Soul Master's cultivation was the martial soul, then the core of Martial Path Cultivation was Blood Replacement!

Martial Path Cultivation was, in truth, a grueling journey centered around the body. Through countless transformations and temperings, it constantly forged an unyielding, indestructible physique.

On this path, cultivators pursued the supreme realm with unwavering resolve—untouched by all arts, eternally undying, as if transcending the mortal world and standing tall between heaven and earth.

Through relentless tempering of the physique, martial artists eventually grasped the essence of this martial system.

The path of Martial Path Cultivation had always been divided into five supreme realms: Body Cultivation, Blood Replacement, Golden Body, Fetal Transformation, and Martial Saint. However, at its root, the essence and core of it all lay in only one crucial step—Blood Replacement!

In this unique cultivation system, there were no tedious and lengthy steps in the traditional sense, such as tempering the skin, refining the flesh, transforming the tendons, forging the bones, washing the marrow, or refining the organs. Completely unlike those, it contained only one vital stage—that was Blood Replacement!!

Blood Replacement—was the Path of Evolution! It was changing the essence of one's own life! It was the road to raising one's own status of existence!

The mystery of life's evolution lay in constant transformation and sublimation! It meant profoundly changing the essence of life and stepping onto an extraordinary journey of elevating one's own status of existence!

If a person focused only on training the skin and flesh while ignoring the strengthening of tendons and bones, then when he threw a punch with all his strength—

He would probably not only fail to heavily injure his opponent, but instead make his own tendons and bones unable to withstand that force, risking torn tendons and broken bones!

How could humans be compared to machinery? Imagine forcibly separating each part of the human body and training them one by one in a mechanical manner. Would that not be no different from those cold, lifeless mechanical movements?

If so, how could that be called a true path of cultivation? Cultivation ought to be a process of unity between body and mind, simultaneous refinement of the inner and outer self, not simply dividing and training each part of the body.

Blood flowed gently through the whole body, nourishing every inch of skin, every bone, every bundle of muscle, and every internal organ hidden deep within. It left nothing untouched, not even the finest details—whether the strands of hair atop the head, the teeth in the mouth, or the nails at the fingertips, all were bathed in its nourishment and brimmed with vitality!

This was the essence of martial arts!

After Lin Xingyu stood still, he regulated his body.

"High-Dimensional Vision!"

In an instant, he stepped into the wondrous realm of High-Dimensional Vision. Immediately after, he gracefully began circulating the Star Breathing Technique, leisurely inhaling and exhaling the vital energy between heaven and earth, as though breathing together with the universe.

Blood Replacement was divided into two parts: nurturing and refining.

Usually it was nurturing. Right now, it was refining!

Blood Replacement cultivation was often inseparable from the powerful assistance of large quantities of precious medicinal herbs. They could not only continuously supply cultivators with energy, but also effectively repair the various injuries the body suffered while operating the breathing technique.

And on Lin Xingyu's tireless journey in pursuit of the true meaning of cultivation, he cleverly used the strange state of High-Dimensional Vision to deepen his understanding and practice of the breathing technique.

Within this transcendent realm, when he cultivated the breathing technique, he not only achieved a rapid leap in its circulation, but every breath also seemed to contain surging potential that pushed his own strength ever forward, making the flow of the breathing technique as natural, smooth, and efficient as a clear spring.

At the same time, he could cleverly avoid the hidden damage the breathing technique might cause to the body during cultivation, ensuring that his body and mind advanced steadily and firmly along the road of cultivation, completely undisturbed by any harm.

It also saved him the troublesome steps of taking medicine. Although the medicines required for Blood Replacement were all rare and precious heavenly treasures, "all medicine is somewhat poisonous," right! It definitely was not because he was poor!

As the breathing technique slowly circulated, beginning from the depths of his heart, the pure vital energy between heaven and earth was like trickling streams, quietly merging into Lin Xingyu's boiling blood. Gradually, his entire body seemed to be wrapped in scorching flames. Every inch of skin and every bone felt an unprecedented heat and passion under the surging of this power.

Under the wondrous effects of the breathing technique, his whole body was gradually becoming stronger and more powerful, undergoing a magnificent transformation and evolution of life's very essence!

Blood Replacement beginner level!

It came naturally when conditions were ripe!

The human body had natural limits. No matter how hard one trained, it was still difficult to reach the majestic physique of a giant dragon. This stemmed from the innate differences in the structure of the human body. However, through cultivating the martial path of Blood Replacement, martial artists could surpass this limitation and achieve strength even greater than that of a giant dragon!

In his previous life, it was said that after cultivating to the Martial Saint realm, one could even change one's own race! One could even become a mythical Divine Beast!

It could be said to thoroughly carry out the words: humans have limits, so I will stop being human!

Gradually, wave after wave of pain like rising flames spread rapidly across his body, like a blazing fire mercilessly eating away at every inch of his skin, making him feel as though he had been plunged into a boundless sea of fire with no escape.

Lin Xingyu's internal organs, bones, and limbs seemed to be assaulted by intense pain at the same instant, and he almost could not stop himself from crying out in agony!

All the blood in his body seemed to have been ignited by raging fire. It surged violently, burning hot and swelling to the extreme, as if it would break through the restraint of his skin at any moment and gush out!

"I'm at my limit!"

Lin Xingyu abruptly cut off the circulation of the breathing technique! The pain inside his body slowly faded, followed by streams of gentle warmth that flowed leisurely within him. Without the previous burning sensation, it was as if he were soaking in a quiet hot spring, enjoying incomparable comfort and ease.

Martial arts: First Blood Replacement (1%)

"The progress is decent. I should be able to complete the cultivation of the first Blood Replacement within three months."

Lin Xingyu carefully sensed his own condition and could not help but nod in satisfaction. This progress had already exceeded expectations and was quite impressive! Although he possessed the talent of "High-Dimensional Vision," he could still only carry out Blood Replacement cultivation once per day. After all, without the help of heavenly treasures, the road of cultivation was this difficult and limited.

"Time for breakfast."

After saying that, he walked toward the living room. Breakfast had been specially prepared by the old butler last night. After all, this world was different, and it was very difficult to obtain heavenly treasures here to replenish himself. Even if "High-Dimensional Vision" ensured he would not damage his own foundation, he still had to make some delicious food to replenish himself.

And so, under the old butler's dumbfounded gaze, Lin Xingyu finished off an entire pot of Medicinal Cuisine, a pot of pork ribs, two plates of meat, and seven large buns.

It made the old butler unable to help suspecting whether he had been mistreating this child in the past.

"Looks like I might have to compete with Tang Wulin for the title of rice bucket in the future. The stronger my qi and blood, the stronger my ability to digest food!"

Full and satisfied, Lin Xingyu let his thoughts wander aimlessly.
