The night was deep and completely silent, except for the occasional distant chirping of insects outside the window, which added to the tranquility.
Within Room C-7, Fang Han sat cross-legged on the bed and began to try to practice <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique>.
At first, when Internal Qi tried to follow the unfamiliar and subtle meridian routes as described in the secret book, there was a lot of stagnation.
Internal Qi runs obscurely, as if it is trudging through thorns. Whenever it reaches a key node, it feels an invisible sense of blockage, making it difficult to flow smoothly.
Not only did the aura around the body fail to converge, but due to the poor operation of Internal Qi, clear Internal Qi fluctuations occasionally overflowed, which seemed particularly clear in the silent night.
Fortunately, he has sixteen times Secret Technique Talent Amplification, and his understanding of the secret arts is far beyond that of ordinary people.
Every time there is an error in the operation of Internal Qi, the mind can instantly sense the problem.
It can be determined whether the intensity of Internal Qi is improperly controlled or the stimulation of meridian nodes is biased.
Then quickly make adjustments to guide Internal Qi to attack those passes in a more precise way.
Try, fail, adjust, try again...
This cycle goes on and on, boring and focused.
Gradually, as the number of exercises increased and the familiarity with the complex operating route continued to increase, the operation of Internal Qi began to become smoother.
The initial astringency gradually subsided, and Internal Qi was like a stream that found the right channel and flowed more and more naturally.
A few hours later.
When the moon's shadow was setting in the west and the chill in the room was at its strongest, Fang Han guided Internal Qi, running <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique>.
"Buzz..."
A very slight resonance sounded, as if coming from the depths of the soul.
The aura fluctuations around Fang Han's body that originally emitted naturally due to cultivation and belonged to Seventh Rank warriors suddenly receded like the tide and quickly became restrained.
The skin temperature seems to have quietly dropped a bit, becoming closer to the surrounding environment.
His whole body seemed to have turned into a lifeless stone or a piece of dead wood.
Sitting there quietly, it would be almost impossible to notice his presence unless you carefully probe with your spiritual sense.
"<Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique>, Beginner stage."
Fang Han is carefully comprehending the current situation.
At the Beginner stage level <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique>, the breath-containing effect has already appeared, which is enough to contain most of one's own breath, making it difficult for a casual warrior to detect.
"The effect is acceptable, but... it's not enough."
Fang Han shook his head slightly.
The breath-holding effect at the Beginner stage level is probably equivalent to using a high-quality "Breath Concealing Powder", and can be used by a martial artist like Zhao Gan who is familiar with Tracking Secret Technique but is not as proficient in it.
However, if you encounter a Proficiency Realm Tracking Secret Technique warrior, with this breath-condensing effect, it may be difficult to completely hide your whereabouts, and the remaining breath will still be captured.
"You need to at least cultivate <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique> to Minor Accomplishment before you can be sure that the remaining aura will not be discovered."
"If you want to be safe enough and not be tracked by the Proficiency Realm, it is best to cultivate <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique> to the level of the Proficiency Realm."
Fang Han thought to himself.
Even though he has sixteen times Secret Technique Talent Amplification, and his understanding of secret arts is far beyond ordinary people, it is not easy to cultivate <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique> to Minor Accomplishment in a short period of time.
Not to mention the higher realm of the Proficiency Realm.
"The improvement must be faster!"
Fang Han A flash of determination flashed in his eyes.
If you want to quickly obtain a large amount of wealth and unlock a higher Talent Amplification, attacking the forces under Chu Feng is currently the most efficient way.
This move is extremely risky, and a skilled Breath Concealment Secret Technique is the key to ensuring safety and concealing your whereabouts.
"I can't bear to let my children catch the wolf, so I have to invest more!"
With his mind set, he no longer hesitated and thought silently in his heart.
"System Panel."
The translucent light curtain quietly unfolded.
[Host: Fang Han]
[Root Bone Talent Amplification: 32 times (the sixth level of increase requires 1 million silver)]
[Sword Art Talent Amplification: 32 times (the sixth level of increase requires 1 million silver)]
[Footwork Talent Amplification: 32 times (the sixth level of increase requires 1 million silver)]
[Secret Technique Talent Amplification: 16 times (the fifth level of increase requires 100,000 silver)]
[Possessed Wealth:837,000 silver]
"Start the fifth level of increase!"
His eyes fell on the option "Fifth level increase requires 100,000 silver" after [Secret Technique Talent Amplification], and Fang Han focused his thoughts.
In an instant, the wealth value on System Panel was instantly reduced by one hundred thousand taels.
[Possessed Wealth:737,000 silver]
The text in the [Secret Technique Talent Amplification] column was blurry for a while, and then became clear:
[Secret Technique Talent Amplification: 32 times (the sixth level of increase requires 1 million silver)]
"Thirty-two times Secret Technique Talent Amplification, open!"
There were no earth-shattering visions, but Fang Han only felt that the various connections and essences about <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique> in his mind seemed to have been thrown into an invisible furnace, being tempered, purified, and sublimated at an unprecedented speed!
Many subtle points that I thought were obscure and difficult to understand before and needed to be pondered over and over are now suddenly enlightened and clear with a slight movement of my mind.
A deeper sense of understanding of the nature of the secret arts arises spontaneously.
"Thirty-two times Secret Art Talent... it's really different!"
Fang Han suppressed the waves in his heart, closed his eyes again, and devoted himself to the practice of <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique> again.
Internal Qi operates more and more smoothly, and the breath is restrained and controlled in a subtle way.
The efficiency of cultivation is more than doubled!
In the following days, Fang Han's life rhythm became increasingly tight.
The daily practice content includes <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique> in addition to <Wind-Following Art>, <Wind Shadow Fatal Sword>, and <Flowing Wind Shadowless Step>.
Time is divided more carefully, and there is almost no leisure.
Before dawn in the morning, he had already stood up and sat cross-legged to practice Internal Qi. The Fengshi Acupoint points, which had accumulated 90% of Internal Qi, were quickly being filled.
When the sun first rose in the morning, he appeared in Forest Clearing, his figure shuttled like a ghost. He practiced <Flowing Wind Shadowless Step> and experienced the mystery of "turning reality into emptiness and blending into the wind".
In the afternoon, practice <Wind Shadow Fatal Sword>.
The sword flashed brightly, and <Wind Shadow Fatal Sword>'s strange killing move emitted a cold light in the open space. The understanding of the samadhi of "cunning, absoluteness, and speed" was deepening day by day.
In the evening to late at night, it is <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique>'s practice time.
Under the terrifying increase of thirty-two times Secret Art Talent, his progress in the cultivation of this Breath Concealment Secret Technique can be said to be a rapid progress.
Internal Qi operates more and more smoothly in those complex meridians, and its control over its own breath continues to improve.
The aura around the body is becoming more and more thorough, and the sense of presence is constantly decreasing.
It won't take long, <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique> should be able to break through to Minor Accomplishment.
However.
The first sign of breakthrough was not <Myriad Transformation Breath Concealment Technique>, but his cultivation, which was already close to the bottleneck.
In the early morning at the end of the month, the sky will be dark, which is the darkest and coldest time of the night.
Inside Room C-7, Fang Han was sitting cross-legged on the bed as usual, concentrating and running <Wind-Following Art>.
Seventh-rank mid stage's Internal Qi is powerful and majestic. With Earth Heart Stone Milk's improved root bones and thirty-two times Root Bone Talent Amplification, the cultivation speed is astonishingly fast.
The newly opened Fengshi Acupoint orifice, after this period of hard training, Internal Qi has already been filled to more than 99%, and the feeling of bulging and fullness is extremely clear.
When another new wave of pure Internal Qi flows into the Fengshi Acupoint orifice like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea--
"Buzz!"
Fengshi Acupoint's orifice shook slightly, reaching the limit of capacity.
Internal Qi spontaneously and violently launched an impact towards the next pass - Dazhui Acupoint!
"Boom!"
Internal Qi The torrent hit an invisible but extremely tough barrier, emitting a dull roar that only Fang Han could feel.
This is the bottleneck in the later stages of Seventh Rank!
However, this barrier requires a lot of time for ordinary Seventh-rank mid stage warriors, and it is even possible to break through it with the help of Danyao's power.
In front of Fang Han's root bones that had been transformed by Earth Heart Stone Milk and increased thirty-two times, they appeared extremely fragile.
Fang Han's mind is calm, and it continues to operate <Wind-Following Art>, guiding the majestic Internal Qi in his body, like a tireless tide, washing away the barrier steadily and continuously, wave after wave.
The bottleneck trembled violently, and tiny cracks spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It only takes a moment--
"Crack!"
A clear cracking sound came from deep within the body.
Seventh Rank's late bottleneck is broken!
The majestic Internal Qi, which had been accumulated for a long time, instantly broke down all obstacles, and poured crazily into the newly opened Dazhui Acupoint with unprecedented joy.
In an instant, the aura around Fang Han suddenly surged!
Including Dazhui Acupoint, Acupoints is connected in nine places to build a more complex, large and efficient Internal Qi circulation system.
The speed and total volume of Internal Qi's rushing water increased sharply, and its color became deeper and more concise, almost ink-green. The sense of power brought about by the flow was far greater than that of Seventh-rank mid stage.
The bones emitted a dense and slight explosion, the blood surged like a river, and the internal organs seemed to be washed and nourished by a new vitality, and their functions were further improved.
With the penetration of Dazhui Acupoint, a new Divine Treasury is also opened. The effect of this Divine Treasury is "Internal Qi recovery".
With the opening of this Divine Treasury, the recovery speed of his Internal Qi has greatly increased, and his long-lasting combat ability has been greatly enhanced.
"Seventh Rank late... it's done."
Fang Han slowly opened his eyes, and a wisp of dark green light flowed under his eyes, and then disappeared.
He gently clenched his fist, feeling the Internal Qi in his body that was becoming more and more powerful, flowing like mercury slurry, and the unprecedented sense of clarity in his mind, and the corner of his mouth could not be restrained from raising a slight arc.
"The time is just right."
Fang Han whispered to himself, with a hint of obvious joy on the corner of his mouth.
The breakthrough in cultivation came at the right time. Today is the end of the month. It is the key day to determine the amount of contribution points rewards next month based on rankings.
Without any delay, he got up and got out of bed, tidied up a little, then picked up Azure Edge Sword and pushed out the door.
Walking calmly, he walked straight towards the huge square where General Ranking Martial Dao Stele was located.
The closer you get to the square, the more disciples you meet, and the aura becomes more mixed and powerful.
Those who can appear here are at least the top-ranked disciples among Twelve Courtyards, and many of them carry a spirit that has been honed over time.
Compared with the Zi Courtyard internal ranking, the competition in General Ranking is undoubtedly more intense and cruel.
If you relax a little here, you will be surpassed by latecomers and your ranking will drop.
