104. Oh, Chinese Kung Fu!
It's 1 p. m., in the third academic district of the university town, in an abandoned teaching building.
Before the school demolished it or it was discovered, this was a good place to practice martial arts.
As usual, Song Shuhang first practiced the Vajra Foundation Fist to make his blood and qi boil, and then guided a Blood Qi back to his Heart Aperture through the True Self Meditation Scripture.
The First-Grade of cultivators is divided into six minor realms: the Heart Aperture, the Eye Aperture, the Nose Aperture, the Ear Aperture, the Mouth Aperture, and finally, the Dragon Gate Leap.
The "Heart Aperture is commonly known as " Hundred-Day Foundation Establishment."
The Dragon Gate Leap is the barrier between the First-Grade and Second-Grade. Leaping over it is like a fish Dragon Transformation, advancing to the Second-Grade Realm; failing to leap over it consumes all one's Blood Qi, causing one's rank to drop back to the Mouth Aperture Realm. One can only accumulate enough Blood Qi again to attempt to break through the mysterious Dragon Gate once more.
Shuhang is currently in the 'Heart Aperture' stage.
On average, without external assistance, it takes about 100 days to open the Heart Aperture.
For the first thirty days, one can accumulate an average of one strand of Blood Qi Value per day; thereafter, as the cultivator's physique continues to improve, the amount of Blood Qi Blood Qi Value that can be cultivated and accumulated each day gradually increases, ranging from three to ten strands per person per day.
It takes approximately three hundred strands of blood energy to fill the Heart Aperture.
Some highly talented cultivators can produce a much stronger wisp of Blood Qi each time they cultivate than those of ordinary cultivators. Some sects even select geniuses who only need about 170 wisps of Blood Qi to open their Heart Aperture.
Some highly talented cultivators gain even more Blood Qi Value each day through cultivation, allowing them to open their Heart Aperture earlier.
These are talents that differ in quality and quantity, and both are geniuses that sects crave.
Song Shuhang has only accumulated four strands of Blood Qi Value so far, and there is still a long way to go before he can open his Heart Aperture.
After resting for a while, he took out a small bottle from his pocket and poured out a Blood Qi Pill.
A faint medicinal fragrance wafted through the air.
The Blood Qi Pill obtained from the Altar Master are of acceptable quality, even Medicine Master consider them to be of good quality. They are much better than the worst quality Blood Qi Pill, and each pill can be used repeatedly.
After taking out the Blood Qi Pill, he held it in his mouth but did not swallow it. Instead, he dissolved the Blood Qi Pill with his saliva and swallowed the dissolved liquid.
Given the quality of these Blood Qi Pills, it would be wasteful for Song Shuhang to swallow them all at once. Even the best quality Blood Qi Pill would only restore Song Shuhang's physical condition once. Any excess Blood Qi would simply dissipate and be wasted.
Hold the Blood Qi Pill in your mouth and spit it out after your body has recovered.
Any unfinished pills will not affect their efficacy as long as they are consumed within three days. This is the same method as with the 'Grain-Repelling Pill'.
Approximately seventeen minutes later.
Song Shuhang spat out the half-melted Blood Qi Pill, and his energy and spirit had returned to their best state!
"It takes seventeen minutes to recover one's essence, energy, and spirit. On average, it takes forty minutes to complete another round of the <Vajra Foundation Fist> and <True Self Meditation Scripture>. If you exclude the time for eating, drinking, relieving yourself, and sleeping, and cultivate for twelve or thirteen hours a day, you can cultivate about eighteen strands of Blood Qi Value!"
If one has enough Blood Qi Pill to support them, and cultivates day and night, it will only take half a month to complete the Hundred-Day Foundation Establishment!
Compared to 100 days, half a month is six times shorter!
"A blessed land for wealth and companionship; no wonder the word 'wealth' is placed first."
"If I exclude the time spent attending classes and socializing with friends, I can dedicate at least six hours a day to cultivation. With enough Blood Qi Pill, I can complete the Foundation Establishment stage in just over a month!"
Thinking of this, Shuhang became excited.
But then he sighed and gave up – he only had two bottles of Blood Qi Pill, a total of twenty-six pills. Although they were of high quality, each pill could only be used about three times. Even if he cultivated for five or six hours a day, he could only last for about eight or Nine Heavens.
That's too little.
Before obtaining the Blood Qi Pill.
But now that I've obtained the Qi and Blood Qi Pill and tasted its benefits, my craving for it just won't stop.
The only one left is the True Lord White's mission.
Arrange driving lessons as soon as possible, then receive Lord True Lord White upon his departure. Perhaps I can get some more Blood Qi Pill from this senior. Moreover... I can also show up more in the group this week, and maybe I can get some tasks from some senior.
Who knows, I might actually be able to complete the Hundred-Day Foundation Establishment within a month?
Thinking about it this way, my enthusiasm suddenly surged up!
"Foundation Fist Form One!"
"Foundation Fist Form Two!"
When in a good mood, this round of Vajra Foundation Fist is performed with each punch powerful, fierce, and domineering.
When he unleashed the Foundation Fist Seventh Form... Shuhang became completely immersed in the world of fist techniques, his mind moving with his fists, and his fists moving with his will!
He was oblivious to everything around him; his eyes were only on himself and the <Vajra Foundation Fist>!
Thud! With each punch, the air seemed to explode!
The wind howled as the fist struck; the pressure of the fist arrived before it did!
After completing the <Vajra Foundation Fist>, I immediately circulated the <True Self Meditation Scripture> to store my Blood Qi Value in my Heart Aperture. The fifth strand of Blood Qi Value!
After resting for a while, put the 'Blood Qi Pill' in your mouth again to restore your essence, energy, and spirit.
Then you can begin a new round of training.
Happy!
This feels like a key dungeon in a cash game, where regular players can only enter once a day. But RMB players can pay to reset the dungeon again and again, farming for items until their hands are sore!
For cultivators who have mastered the Heart Aperture, the Blood Qi Pill is the key to resetting dungeons!
************
Time flies...
It was already past five in the afternoon.
The second day of the sports meet was drawing to a close.
Many parents who came to watch the sports meet dispersed, some having dinner with their children, while others strolled around the Jiangnan University Town alone.
Joseph was the latter; he had been heartlessly abandoned by his beloved daughter at noon and was now wandering alone in the Jiangnan University Town. He had painstakingly taken leave from abroad to come to China to see his lovely daughter...
As he wandered around, he unknowingly arrived at an abandoned school building. Tired from walking, Joseph wanted to rest for a while in this quiet place.
Suddenly, he heard strange noises coming from the abandoned school building.
Joseph is a very curious person. He has loved China martial arts movies since he was a child. He likes the powerful martial arts skills of the protagonists and their various adventures. He especially likes the scene where the protagonist falls off a cliff and has a miraculous encounter.
After quietly climbing up the abandoned school building, he saw—the scene he had been dreaming of!
A young boy was practicing his boxing in the spacious school building. He was drenched in sweat, completely unaware of his own arrival. It seemed that in his world, there was only himself and his magical boxing technique!
Yes, amazing boxing skills!
When that not-so-thick fist struck, a clear explosion echoed through the air. Crack! Crack! Crack!
Every punch has the power to shatter stone tablets!
The boy's footwork was exquisite. One could sense both lightness and weight, two seemingly contradictory attributes, yet they were perfectly blended together.
When leaping, he is as light as a swallow; when attacking, he is as heavy as a mountain!
"Oh, Chinese Kung Fu!" Joseph exclaimed inwardly.
Authentic China kung fu is not like the kind shown in movies.
