Ren Anran has always been the first to support Zhang Xuezhou's recommendations and tries her best to follow suit.

Given that Zhang Xuezhou was unable to be the first to test the technology, Ren Anran became the first tester.

Zhang Xuezhou had completed one cycle of the Body Technique, which resulted in half a day passing by. Ren Anran's speed when she first activated the Body Technique was similar.

During this half-day period, the Duan Yu Gao ointment needs to provide continuous stimulation, requiring the administration of a considerable amount of medication.

"The Jade-Severing Ointment is too irritating!"

Seeing Ren Anran's pale, pained face, and the constant sweat pouring from her body, Zhang Manqian felt her heart tremble.

Starting ten years ago, Zhang Xuezhou began recording some strange and unusual things, and these things also helped people become different from others.

The Realm Technique, the Supreme Purity True Technique, and the Poison Avoidance Instruction —each of these plays an indispensable role, and now it's the Physical Body Technique.

Zhang Xuezhou never expected that everyone could push their physical body techniques to some profound and unparalleled level. He only hoped that they would have enough to use and that they could adapt to the stronger side effects of elixirs by combining them with the Poison Avoidance Instruction.

For example, Ren Anran's Poison Avoidance Instruction is currently difficult to improve, making it impossible for him to take Zhang Xuezhou's Potent Spirit-Forging Pill or Fortune Pill. However, after undergoing physical surgery, he might be able to meet the requirements. Even if the effects of the medicine are not as strong as initially, at least Ren Anran will meet the basic requirements for taking the medicine.

These basic requirements imply the possibility of reaching the Divine Ability Realm.

Ren Anran, Fourth Sequence cultivator, may, like Zhang Xuezhou, use the superior power of the Divine Ability Realm to suppress some Sixth Sequence Holder.

These trump cards, which are not part of the sequence, are extremely beneficial to people and are also difficult to defend against, thus enabling the reversal of the struggle and survival.

"It's worth it, isn't it?" Zhang Xuezhou said.

"You don't understand women at all," Zhang Manqian complained.

"The Jade Cream also whitens the skin; how can you not understand women?" Zhang Xuezhou replied.

"You don't understand the reserve a woman has in front of a man," Zhang Manqian said. "If you hadn't been standing outside the door watching, I think An Ran would be rolling on the floor right now. She's afraid of embarrassing herself in front of you, so she's been holding back. The effects of this drug have already been too much for her!"

"Rolling around won't reduce the effectiveness of the medicine," Zhang Xuezhou argued.

"Rolling around in pain might make me feel better," Zhang Manqian thought for a moment, then hesitated, "I'm not afraid of losing face in front of you, but I might end up rolling around in pain, which could cause my cultivation of the physical body technique to fail. What should I do then?"

"Then I'll connect you to Mom's live stream, switch the camera to you, and let you perform the rolling around act!"

Zhang Xuezhou offered a suggestion, and Zhang Manqian immediately fell silent.

Zhang Manqian isn't afraid of losing face in front of Zhang Xuezhou, but she really can't bear to lose face in front of hundreds of thousands of people.

If Zhang Xuezhou were to start a live stream for her, Zhang Manqian felt she would grit her teeth and persevere.

"You two, is this how you usually endure your cultivation?"

Luo Gaogao, who was over two meters tall, looked down through the glass partition in the door at Ren Anran inside, and felt a chill run down his spine.

"We don't usually stay up late," Zhang Manqian said. "This is because we're pushing forward with a new test, and it's the first time we're really familiar with it, so it looks a bit painful and agonizing!"

"And then what happens after you get to know them?" Luo Gaogao asked.

"Once things fall into place naturally, just smile and move on!"

Looking at Luo Gaogao, who was being subsidized by Zhang Xuezhou, and pondering the Realm Technique that Luo Gaogao had come into contact with, Zhang Manqian felt that the other party might actually just smile and let it go, thus surpassing the results that many of them had endured for years.

Compared to the Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Incantation, the questions and answers section is much simpler in terms of Realm Entry and spiritual practice.

This is someone who possesses a weak cultivation level but lacks Law Power and Technique Method. If they choose the simplest path to cultivate to a higher level, they will be no different from a useless person.

If a more fundamental Realm Technique is used instead, this weak cultivation level will be directly reduced to its original state, or even fall back to the initial Meridian Circulation Realm cultivation.

However, once you step into the True Spirit Realm, you will gain the power of Law Power lock, even if the distance is ten meters or it can only last for ten seconds. This is a nightmare for some people who are good at dodging.

Having personally experienced the close-range lock-on ability in the Youth Challenge, Zhang Manqian felt as if she had a cheat code, with every punch landing squarely.

Without genuine, overwhelming power, this Law Power lock is enough to shift the balance of a battle.

For many Sequence Holder excel in melee combat, this ability is top-notch in terms of support capabilities.

If this ability is obtained through arduous practice of the Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Incantation, Zhang Manqian feels that it is not worthwhile for many people. However, if the practice process is not painful and one can obtain the relevant abilities simply by persevering, Zhang Manqian believes that most people would choose this path.

"This question and answer..."

"You can give it a try; my brother can provide you with four more doses of ointment!"

Zhang Manqian and others repeatedly promoted the Realm Technique, which involved consuming extremely high amounts of elixirs.

However, starting from the question and answer, choosing the simplest cultivation path, one pill corresponding to each realm is enough to meet the needs.

"Actually, I've always been very interested in this kind of ancient martial arts," Luo Gaogao thought to himself. "I'll definitely try this question and answer when I get back!"

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask me anytime. My brother doesn't have time, but I have plenty of time," Zhang Manqian nodded.

"Must!"

Luo Gaogao nodded and then bowed to look at Ren Anran in the quiet room.

Compared to the questions and answers that didn't explain their purpose, Luo Gaogao was clearly more concerned about Ren Anran's situation, wanting to see what skills Ren Anran had developed using the Luo Household's Jade-Breaking Ointment.

Ren Anran looked pained and continued to take the Broken Jade Ointment. The time had been from 4 p. m. to 8 p. m.

Four hours of arduous practice, which is far longer than the time required to cultivate the Thousand Threads Entanglement Technique, and also far exceeds the amount of medicine taken for cultivating the Thousand Threads Entanglement Technique.

More importantly, Luo Gaogao noticed that Ren Anran's arduous cultivation involved no physical movement; he remained in a cross-legged meditation position the entire time. He found it difficult to understand what the effects of taking medicine and sitting in meditation could possibly be.

"This utilizes the transformative power of the medicine to rapidly refine the acupoints, thus enabling those points that would normally require several days or even dozens of days to function quickly!"

The rough blank has been ground into a part!

"One is the perseverance of water dripping on stone, the other is using external forces to achieve quick results!"

"The body continuously improves through the power of these acupoints, thereby gaining special strength from both internal and external sources!"

"Each level here corresponds to a tier. The power gained in the physical body stage isn't very noticeable, but the iron body stage has countless wonders, and advancing to the golden body stage makes one impervious to swords and blades, and immune to water and fire. Above that is the Great Perfection Golden Body, and then..."

Zhang Xuezhou whispered to Zhang Manqian.

To be honest, Zhang Xuezhou greatly admired Rulai's power.

If he Rulai the overwhelming direct strength of Buddha, Zhang Xuezhou wouldn't have needed to hide and flee all these years; he could have simply swept away any obstacles in his path with unbridled joy.

Of course, Rulai has his irreparable flaws.

Considering the opponent's speed and his own skill in leaping and bounding, Zhang Xuezhou finally realized that he was not inferior to them either.

A few thoughts flashed through his mind, and he saw a faint white light, different from the deathly pale face, emanate from Ren Anran's body.

Four and a half hours later, with the help of the Jade-Breaking Plaster, Ren Anran finally made it into the basics of the Body Technique.
