Xu Wuyi didn't hesitate at all. He didn't even have time to reflect on the details of the battle. His body was already moving instinctively.
He stood in the center of the underground Cultivation Room, took a deep breath, and took the lead in the starting position of the eighteen moves of <Hundred Refinements Furnace>Entry Level.
Blood and Qi rushed along with it, and the red-gold [Heart Fire] in the Dantian was pulled and swayed happily, emitting warm and vigorous heat, causing the Blood and Qi all over the body to move as heavy as lead and mercury, and a faint red glow appeared under the skin.
This time, he deliberately slowed down, no longer pursuing the coherence and explosion of moves, but completely sinking his thoughts into his body, feeling the flow and changes of Blood and Qi in every Meridians, every node, and even every inch of his bones in detail.
What associate professor Han Mo said about the principles of those subtle connections and nodes Blood and Qi was now corroborated with his personal experience and became clearer.
He could "see" that, driven by <Hundred Refinements Furnace>, his powerful Blood and Qi was like hot lava, scouring and burning his whole body over and over again, illuminating the depths that were usually difficult to reach.
After completing the <Hundred Refinements Furnace> drill, Blood and Qi all over the body has become completely active and has reached its peak.
Xu Wuyi moved non-stop, switching to <Basic Body Tempering Method> smoothly.
The movements are concise, unsophisticated, and even a little clumsy.
But with the blessing of his "Dacheng" realm, this seemingly simple nine movements actually contains "Return to Simplicity"
flavor.
Blood and Qi operates flawlessly, naturally making up for the smallest omissions and laying a solid foundation for the most Origin.
In this way, he alternately practiced <Hundred Refinements Furnace> and <Basic Body Tempering Method>.
<Hundred Refinements Furnace> is like Blazing Fire cooking oil, pushing Blood and Qi to the extreme to tap out its deep potential; while <Basic Body Tempering Method> is like simmering slowly, sorting out, harmonizing and stabilizing, transforming the intensity into a state that is easier to accumulate.
One high, one basic, one disease and one slow, forming a perfect complement and cycle.
Only half an hour later, Xu Wuyi, who was in the middle of [Furnace Tripod Pulse Suppression], was shaken violently!
He clearly felt that the Blood and Qi that was flowing endlessly around him seemed to be pulled by some invisible force. It was no longer content to circulate in Meridians, but was like all rivers returning to the sea, spontaneously converging towards the Dantian of the lower abdomen!
No, it's not a simple gathering.
It is compression and condensation!
Blood and Qi, which was originally as heavy and viscous as lead and mercury, was enveloped by the steady beating red gold [Heart Fire] the moment it poured into the Dantian.
"Chi"
It's like cold Water Drop being thrown into boiling oil, and like stubborn iron being thrown into a furnace.
The blazing [Heart Fire] burned with unprecedented intensity, tightly wrapping the Blood and Qi that poured into the Dantian, burning and tempering it like crazy!
Severe pain came from the Dantian, and the scorching heat seemed to burn the entire body Origin away.
Xu Wuyi groaned, and beads of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead, but his eyes were astonishingly bright.
He understands that this is a crucial step!
He guarded his mind and concentrated his thoughts. Instead of resisting the pain, he actively guided more Blood and Qi to pour into his Dantian and plunge into the red-gold flame.
<Hundred Refinements Furnace>, use your body as a furnace to smelt all things!
At this moment, he is using himself as the furnace and [Heart Fire] as the source to smelt and purify all his Blood and Qi H
During this process, he could "see inside" that some gray impurities that were tempered out of Blood and Qi were reduced to nothingness under the calcination of [Heart Fire].
The essence part undergoes essential changes under the dual effects of High-Heat Rule and pressure.
The color became deeper, from the original red to dark red, and even took on a subtle golden sheen.
The form also becomes more solid, no longer a flowing liquid, but tends to a strange state with extremely high energy density.
This process lasted nearly an hour.
When the last wave of Blood and Qi was introduced into the Dantian and was thoroughly tempered by [Heart Fire], the churning and burning sensation in the Dantian began to slowly subside.
The red-gold [Heart Fire] seems to have been consumed a lot, and the light is slightly dimmed, but the core is more condensed, exuding a sense of stability during its movement.
At this moment, in Xu Wuyi's Dantian, the originally overflowing Blood and Qi had disappeared, replaced by a small pool of deep, viscous, dark red liquid exuding a majestic breath of life, with fine golden light dotted in the center.
Pure Blood and Qi!
This is the more advanced energy form that Blood and Qi transformed into after the transition of life essence!
Xu Wuyi slowly stopped and stood up straight.
He gently clenched his fist, without moving any Blood and Qi, but he could feel the explosive power hidden deep in his bones, which was far stronger than before!
His five senses have become sharper than ever before. He can even hear the subtle sound of his own blood flowing in his blood vessels, and can clearly "see" the traces of dust particles floating in the air.
A sense of pleasure arises spontaneously as one breaks away from the invisible shackles and sublimates the level of life.
Without any hesitation, he turned around and walked towards Virtual Pod.
Conscious connection, enter Star Martial Battle Net.
In the personal space, soft blue light gathers, and the virtual projection of Anna emerges.
"Xu Wuyi, welcome back. We have detected significant changes in your vital signs and are updating the data for you----" The data stream flashed rapidly in Anna's eyes.
After a moment, the light screen unfolded and the latest data was clearly displayed:
[Name: Xu Wuyi]
[Life Energy Level: Level 20.1]
[Identity: Star Martial University-East Academy (formally Martial Artist)]
Level 20.1!
Sure enough, a breakthrough!
Although I had a premonition, seeing this number with my own eyes still made Xu Wuyi feel a wave of excitement in my heart.
After several months, he finally crossed this crucial threshold and became a real Martial Artist!
"Anna, call up the detailed body data before and after the breakthrough for comparison." Xu Wuyi suppressed the excitement and calmly ordered.
"The command has been received. Data comparison is being generated----"
[Life Energy Level: Level 19.9 → Level 20.1 (upgraded by 0.2 levels)]
[Blood and Qi total amount (converted into standard units): increased by about 15%]
[Blood and Qi fine purity: increased by 85%]
[Bone density: increased by 5%]
[Nerve reaction speed: increased by 20%]
[Comprehensive physical fitness assessment: Improved by 25%~30%]
Looking at this report, Xu Wuyi was thoughtful.
Just looking at the magnitude of the improvement, it is actually smaller than when the ordinary Martial Apprentice breaks through Martial Artist.
But this was completely within his expectation, because his base was too large.
It is precisely because in the Martial Apprentice stage, he relied on <Hundred Refinements Furnace> to lay a solid foundation far beyond ordinary people, which made his starting point extremely high. Before the breakthrough, his life essence was already close to or even reached the lower limit of ordinary Martial Artist.
Therefore, for him, this life transition is more like a qualitative change that "comes naturally", compressing and purifying the originally extremely large "quantity" into a higher-level "quality".
If the absolute value of the increase can be accurately calculated, his increase will definitely be greater than that of the ordinary Martial Artist, and his upper limit will be higher!
"This is the power of Martial Artist----" Xu Wuyi feels the pool of pure Blood and Qi in his body, as well as the stronger body and sharper spirit that complement it.
With a thought in his mind, he tried to mobilize a trace of pure Blood and Qi.
"Buzz!"
A wisp of dark red light with a hint of gold flashed away from the fingertips, and the air buzzed slightly, with a far more concentrated and hot power than before.
It's as easy to control as an arm, but the consumption feels much smaller.
He threw out a casual punch without using any martial arts, relying purely on physical strength and Blood and Qi's blessing.
"Bang!"
The dull sound of air explosions echoed in the personal training ground, and the wind of fists surged, slightly distorting the air several meters away.
The power far exceeds the Martial Apprentice period!
Xu Wuyi had a look of satisfaction on his face.
This breakthrough was not only a surge in strength, but also meant that he had officially entered a new world of martial arts and had the qualifications to pursue a higher realm.
He exited Battle Net and returned to reality.
He stood in front of Cultivation Room's floor-length mirror and looked at himself in the mirror.
"It's not enough, I can become stronger----"
