As the heat rises, a very thin layer of Spiritual Qi film appears above the mouth of the tripod. It is an auxiliary function that the set of spiral Spirit Gathering Formation on the tripod automatically activates after sensing the increase in internal temperature. This layer of Spiritual Qi film locks all the smell, heat and essence of the ingredients in the tripod inside the tripod, without any leakage. Only when the heating stops, this layer of isolation cover will be automatically released.

Qin Tiexin looked at the layer of Spiritual Qi film. This precision is far beyond the ordinary Spirit Artifact's array pattern linkage design. It is placed on the Flowing Cloud Sect's In the Artifact Refining Hall, it takes at least three or more craftsmen to polish it for half a year to complete. For a body like his, this is simply the most practical function. The flesh and blood essence of the ingredients will not be lost during the stewing process, and is all locked in the cauldron for repeated tempering and fusion.

It only took about one stick of incense before the cauldron stopped churning.

Qin Tiexin put away the spiritual power input, and the Spiritual Qi membrane at the mouth of the tripod slowly dissipated, and a rich and almost substantial aroma of meat and medicine poured out from the tripod, instantly filling the entire stone room. The soup base in the tripod had been boiled into a dark red rich soup, and the essence of the beef bones and medicinal materials were all blended into it. The meat pieces were stewed until crispy, and the surface glowed with an attractive red sheen.

Qin Tiexin broke off a leg of beef and started to chew it. I was indeed a little hungry.

The stewed flesh and blood essence is preserved very completely. With every bite, you can feel the rich Qi and Blood energy melting in the mouth and pouring down the throat into the stomach.

Since breaking through the Qi and Blood Realm, not only have I not felt the same as Grain Avoidance, but my food intake has more than doubled compared to Body Refining Stage. More importantly, after these flesh and blood essences and medicinal power enter the body, the absorption speed has also been greatly improved. Before Body Refining Stage needs to run the energy of Cultivation Method to assist digestion. Now when Fire of Life is burned in the heart, the essence in the stomach will automatically be carried by Qi and Blood and pour into the heart, and then flow to the limbs and bones through blood vessels.

I don't know whether it is due to too much accumulation in the early stage or the overbearing characteristics of "True Fire Furnace Scripture" itself. Qin Tiexin feels that if he practices at this speed, he will soon touch the threshold of the Middle Stage of the Qi and Blood Realm.

As Demon Beast, a half-cow type, mixed with medicinal materials and high-end Refined Blood Pill, swallowed all the thick soup, Qin Tiexin felt a little full. After chewing the last bone and swallowing it, all the pores in his body opened, emitting an amazing amount of heat, and the temperature of the entire stone room jumped up a few degrees.

He quickly sat cross-legged and ran "True Fire Furnace Scripture" to guide the huge flesh and blood essence energy in his body and continuously send it to Fire of Life in the heart. As the essence was continuously tempered by Fire of Life, he could clearly feel his blood changing. Every drop of blood became thicker, heavier, and contained more energy, with a slight feeling of warmth as it flowed in the blood vessels.

This is a sign that the blood is transforming towards Essence Blood.

He lowered his head and glanced at the position of his heart. Across the sternum and muscles, the fist-sized crimson Flame was still beating steadily, and every beat pumped a new force into the blood vessels. There were several extremely light dark golden lines flowing slowly around Flame, as if a layer of fine gold threads had been embroidered on the surface of Flame.

"True Fire Furnace Scripture" says that the Fire of Life that is ignited when the physical training reaches Qi and Blood Realm is initially about the size of a soybean, and then slowly grows as the cultivation level increases. By the time Late Qi and Blood Realm reaches the size of an egg, it is considered a good talent.

But his ball of Fire of Life was as big as a fist from the first moment it was lit, and it has no intention of stopping until now. Instead, it grows steadily after every meal and every practice.

Qin Tiexin Withdrew his gaze and let go of the things he couldn't figure out.

There was still quite a while until noon tomorrow. He practiced the last two moves of Heavy Mountain Saber Technique several times [Sever the Mountain] and [Shatter the Mountain] in the open space in the center of the stone room. Edgeless flipped and turned in his left hand, and the strong wind brought by the blade struck a dull sound on the stone wall. Echo. The latter two postures require extremely high strength from the waist and legs. In the past, Body Refining Stage could only use the strength of his bones and muscles. Now, Fire of Life drives Qi and Blood into his legs. Every time Treading Step turns around, he feels a force under his feet supporting him to move up.

But he also clearly noticed that the strength of his legs was not as strong as that of his arms, and the connection of his steps was not smooth enough. When turning, the power of the lower body was always half a beat slower than that of the upper body. Footwork alone was not enough to temper the legs.

It seems like you can really practice a leg technique.

Sheathing the knife, he took out the Jade Slip and Divine Sense given to him by Yang Qingxue from the storage ring and inserted them into it.

It begins with a powerful line of words:

"The legs are the foundation of the body. The fists can be empty, the sword can be shaken, and the legs cannot be floating. If the legs are floating, the roots will be broken, and if the roots are broken, the strength will be lost. When training the legs, you must first practice them steadily, and then you can attack after they are stable."

There is also a line of small words below, with different fonts. They are added after Yang Qingxue. They are a message to Qin Tiexin. They should have been written in advance.

"This method comes from Savage Wilderness's physical training. It takes the path of defeating all methods with your legs. Your boxing skills, sword skills, and footwork are all good, but your leg skills are weak. With only one arm left, the range that your fist can hit is limited, and the distance that your legs can kick is much farther than your fist. Training your legs well will be more useful than practicing ten more boxing moves."

Qin Tiexin Continue to scroll down. "Savage Mountain Leg Technique" does not contain much content, only three movements, but each movement is equipped with extremely detailed illustrations and comments on how to exert force.

The first form "Crosswise Ridge Sweep" is a frontal low-sweeping leg, using the tibia of the calf as the focus, focusing on the lower body of the opponent. The key to exerting force lies in the twisting of the waist and hips and the stability of the supporting leg. After the waist drives the leg to throw out, the muscles in front of the tibia are tightened at the moment of impact, concentrating the whole body weight and inertia on one point.

The second posture "Hills and Ravines Thrust Kick" is to kick the legs from the front, using the soles of the feet as the point of force to attack the opponent's chest and abdomen. The essence of this posture is that after kicking out, the soles of the feet should be pushed forward half an inch at the moment of contact, so that the power is poured into the opponent's body instead of staying on the body surface.

The third posture "Heavy Savage Chop" is a split from top to bottom, using the heel as the focus to attack the opponent's head or shoulder and neck. This posture requires strong flexibility and balance. The supporting leg should be stable when raising the leg, and the whole person should be in a straight line when falling.

The diagrams of each style are densely marked with force exertion nodes and common mistakes. It can be seen that Yang Qingxue has put a lot of effort into studying this kicking method after getting it, and also added a lot of his own understanding.

Qin Tiexin read the diagrams and annotations of the three movements three times from beginning to end, then put Jade Slip on his forehead and memorized them silently with his eyes closed.

This was his first serious exposure to kicking. When he was in Body Refining Stage, his fighting style was very simple, including slashing with a knife, smashing with fists, and shooting with a javelin.

The functions of the legs are limited to stance and footwork, and have never been used as offensive weapons. But Yang Qingxue is right. Now that he only has one arm left, the attack range and continuity of his fists are limited, and his legs have become his most powerful supplement.
