Qi Transformation

Inside Zhang You's room, he was currently taking stock of his gains.

The most significant was that he had undergone the ninth Great Body Tempering. The tenth Great Body Tempering was still a little ways off.

However, he felt that the next Great Body Tempering would bring great terror, so he wasn't rushing it.

He had obtained a Martial Skill in the Ghost Domain, which added a bit more to his life-saving methods.

Moreover, he felt his strength was still improving bit by bit!

This was all thanks to Minor Body Tempering!

He also acquired an unknown Broken Sword of extraordinary power, which drew upon his own blood when used!

With a thought, the Broken Sword appeared in his hand.

Judging by its appearance alone, no one would ever think it was any kind of treasure.

He quickly retracted it back into his Dantian.

His eyes seemed to have developed a problem too!

He had repeatedly seen the world turn into black and white, and he didn't know the principle behind it.

But its effect was immense!

He could see the true nature and weaknesses of things, and also things that were invisible to the naked eye due to their extreme speed.

He could sense them even with his eyes closed, which was quite magical.

At this point, after multiple attempts, he found he could no longer enter that state.

He thought about it and decided to put it aside for now!

Lastly, there was the "Extreme Dao True Scripture" in his mind!

This scripture had actually attracted Heavenly Thunder, nearly killing him. It seemed to be a hot potato.

He hadn't had the chance to study it closely before, only knowing it was a body-tempering related cultivation technique. Now that he had time, he could take a look.

He had previously learned from Shopkeeper Li that he had been missing for over a day.

Counting the time, it was almost the last day of the five-day period!

He currently had severe internal injuries, and his strength was only a little over half of his peak. He was still not enough to deal with those people.

He still needed to master some self-preservation methods as much as possible!

Calming his mind, he began to study the Extreme Dao True Scripture!

This scripture was mainly about the cultivation of the "Extreme Dao," encompassing three aspects:

Body tempering, Qi Transformation, and Soul Refining!

Body tempering was the process of forging the physical body.

Qi Transformation was the conversion of one's own blood energy into Qi.

Qi was of higher quality than blood energy and could unleash greater strength.

Qi could also be used to nourish the body and soul.

Soul Refining was the cultivation of the soul, which could eventually reach a state of indestructible divine soul, and even achieve the state of myriad soul transformations.

Zhang You was greatly surprised, not expecting the scripture to describe such incredible things.

This scripture seemed to be tailor-made for martial cultivators!

Regarding body tempering, Zhang You glanced at it and gave up!

This method of body tempering required high-intensity training and various heavenly and earthly treasures of the martial arts to temper the physical body.

Only by tackling both aspects could one achieve results.

But in this world today, suitable heavenly and earthly treasures for martial arts had already become extinct!

Fortunately, he possessed a special physique that allowed him to temper his body by absorbing blue-white energy, thereby achieving the effect of body tempering, and even a stronger effect than pure body tempering.

Therefore, what was useful to him were Qi Transformation and Soul Refining.

The prerequisite for Qi Transformation was the ability to skillfully use blood energy!

This posed no obstacle for him.

Focusing his mind, he began to circulate the methods for Qi Transformation.

Soon, the blood energy on his body started to emanate slowly, and then entered a special state.

After an unknown amount of time, the blood energy was contained, but his aura didn't decrease; instead, it increased, and there seemed to be an invisible force surrounding him.

It wasn't until the sky was about to brighten on the second day that Zhang You opened his eyes. Although he still had dark circles under his eyes, the brilliance in them was undeniable!

He raised his right hand, and a semi-transparent mass of energy suddenly appeared.

This mass of energy looked ordinary, but it distorted the surrounding air slightly!

It seemed to contain a more powerful energy than blood energy!

This is "Qi"!

Perhaps because my foundation was solid, the process of Qi Transformation was unusually smooth!

"Let me try!"

He took out a blood-colored crystal from his chest, the one he got from killing the sarcoma in the Ghost Domain.

Before, due to the mixed blood energy, he couldn't absorb it easily, but it was different now.

He could absorb the blood energy from the blood-colored crystal and refine it directly into Qi, which was extremely beneficial for healing his injuries!

No sooner said than done!

Zhang You placed the blood-colored crystal in his hand, then used Stars Shift to begin absorbing the blood energy within!

At first, he only absorbed a wisp, testing it out, and found that it could indeed be refined into Qi.

After that, he increased the absorption intensity!

"Crack!"

By the time dawn broke, the blood-colored crystal in his hand had shattered and turned into powder.

Zhang You let out a long sigh!

After carefully sensing it, he found that his internal injuries had recovered by more than sixty percent!

"If I refine that Sarira later, I should be able to recover over seventy percent, maybe even eighty!"

He looked at the sky, tidied himself up a bit, took the time to take a shower, and changed into new clothes, then happily ran to open the teahouse!

It had rained last night, and the early morning breeze was pleasant. Soon, more and more pedestrians appeared on the road.

Wisps of cooking smoke curled up, and the sounds of hawkers and shouts filled the air.

It was a scene of prosperity!

People were carefree, chatting and laughing, with smiles on their faces.

After opening the teahouse door, Zhang You looked at everything around him, deeply moved!

Just then, the world in his eyes suddenly changed; or rather, the sky seemed to be wrong!

The sky at this moment had lost its usual clarity, filled with chaos, colors mixing together, forming swirling vortexes, like the end of the world.

There was not a trace of life to be felt!

It was exactly the same brief scene he had seen when he first arrived in this world!

And looking at the people around him!

They were nowhere near what he had seen before.

They all looked gaunt and emanated deathly energy!

From the top of their heads, thin white smoke rose straight into the sky, then was sucked away by those vortexes.

"Holy crap! Damn it!"

Thousands of words couldn't describe his current feelings as well as these four words!

What terrified him was that there was also a wisp of white smoke above his head!

At the end of the white smoke were thin, small tentacles, trying to probe into his head!

But they were blocked by an invisible force!

Zhang You knew that his special physique was at play.

Looking at the beings outside, who were like walking dead, he felt uncomfortable!

What kind of world was this?

Zhang You felt an immense sense of oppression!

"Little Overlord, a pot of tea!"

Suddenly, a voice pulled his thoughts back, and the world in his eyes returned to normal.

The world in his eyes regained its clarity, and people returned to their usual demeanor!

"Which one is the real world?"

Zhang You frowned, scratching his scalp, and went to make tea in the back.

Although the weather was a bit chilly, customers soon arrived at the teahouse, and business became lively.

"Ants!"

As noon approached, a violent voice suddenly erupted from the teahouse!

Then, a dagger flew past Zhang You's ear and embedded itself in the wall behind him!

"Someone's attacking!"

The customers in the teahouse scattered, scrambling to escape!
