On a high-rise in the distance.
Shen Congyun watched Jiang Ning face the blazing sun, breathing in and out as he circulated his technique.
He was utterly astonished.
He knew full well how the Inner Elixir Life-Nourishing Technique was cultivated after one had entered the gate. Without a method of guidance, absorbing the essence of sunlight was like drawing a violent fire dragon into one's body; the five viscera and six bowels would all be burned to ash.
Such pain was even more than ordinary people could endure.
Yet at this moment, he clearly saw that Jiang Ning not only absorbed the essence of sunlight without relying on any secret medicine, but directly began circulating his breathing technique toward the great sun after sunrise.
He began absorbing the essence of sunlight.
This completely shattered his understanding.
"Could it be... this boy possesses a complete method for cultivating the Inner Elixir Life-Nourishing Technique? Rather than having merely entered the gate through the incomplete fragment he obtained from Wang Jin?"
Thinking of this possibility, he shook his head again.
"That should be impossible! The Inner Elixir Life-Nourishing Technique is an ultimate art, not some low-grade martial arts technique sold everywhere on the streets! Besides, how could there be such a coincidence!!"
Shen Congyun shook his head again, dismissing the thought.
Then his gaze continued to rest on Jiang Ning from several kilometers away, observing his every movement.
After the time it took an incense stick to burn.
He nodded. "This boy is indeed cultivating the Inner Elixir Life-Nourishing Technique. There is no mistake! As for the rest, I will have to wait for the investigation report on him before making a judgment!"
His murmurs drifted through the air, while Shen Congyun's figure vanished from atop the high-rise.
Inside the martial arts hall.
