Chapter 73: Chapter 73 Blood Qi Smoke (Request for Yue tickets, request for recommendation tickets!)
Wang Sheng, this time, directly swallowed several Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills, feeling the Blood Qi suddenly brimming within his body. He didn’t hesitate and began practicing Ba Duan Jin.
The current Ba Duan Jin had undergone significant changes compared to its initial form.
At level 9, he was already a Master Level practitioner of Health Care Ba Duan Jin, and after the Breakthrough, he made some changes to it.
There were no major changes in the overall pace and movements, but now, each of his movements in Ba Duan Jin was full of charm, and even in the small courtyard, it seemed as if he was practicing with the intent of the Immortal Realm.
The leaves in the courtyard moved on their own without wind, changing their positions following Wang Sheng’s movements.
And Wang Sheng himself, performing these movements, was also reaping great benefits.
…
The Blood Qi replenished by the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills was continuously consumed with the aid of Ba Duan Jin.
This power was entirely supplemented into the Blood Qi, which surged and boiled continually, with the strength of the blood increasing constantly.
With the increase in blood strength, the Qi Blood Power extracted from the blood also gradually increased.
With both forces intensifying, even while still practicing, Wang Sheng could feel his strength improving.
“Not enough!”
He quickly completed several iterations of Ba Duan Jin, gaining not a little, but not fully meeting his expectations.
What he wanted was “Blood Qi like Mercury: 99%” to reach a qualitative change.
Originally, he thought that the previous pills and Ba Duan Jin were sufficient, but this threshold was harder to break through than he imagined.
However, seeing the progress bar at 99% and the decimal moving up was not in vain.
Any progress was good, for fear that he had not made any progress at all.
Wang Sheng swallowed the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills again, this time even more, ten pills!
The effects of the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills quickly took effect, and he didn’t dare hesitate, beginning to practice Ba Duan Jin again.
His blood strength within continued to rise, just like before.
Time passed, and on his fifth replenishment of Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills, he knew the moment had arrived!
Boom!
A powerful force surged within Wang Sheng’s body, as if the waters of a great river were rushing in from afar, soaring skyward!
At the same time, Wang Sheng sensed something and, without caring whether the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills in his body had finished digesting, grabbed the remaining pills and stuffed them into his mouth—this time, even he didn’t know how many he had swallowed.
But one thing was certain.
The “great river” within him seemed to have found its source, becoming more turbulent and vast.
Whoosh!
Like wave crashes on the shore, breakers striking the rocks!
Roaring sounds echoed continuously in Wang Sheng’s mind, as he steadied his spirit and entered a state of inner viewing.
He saw his blood, once like mercury, flowing rapidly, its color turning as bright as fire, constantly shaking his spirit.
Then, the surging blood seemingly ignited like flames.
Hu!
As if the wind breezed through, in an instant, what was merely a spark instantly became a wildfire, with mercury-like blood serving as the best fuel!
Hu! Hu!
As the blood ignited, Wang Sheng knew this was a scene observable only in his inner view state, but his body indeed felt intensely hot, with the blood and Qi Blood Power inside more active than ever before.
Once the mercury-like blood ignited, it seemed highly flammable. Quickly, a red smoke arose, appearing to be a method of release after the “great river” had been raging for so long!
In an instant, the smoke thickened, initially only visible in the inner view state, but soon, red smoke began emanating from Wang Sheng’s body as well!
Originally lethargic, the large white creature seemed to sense something and immediately stood up from the ground, fixating its gaze on the motionless Wang Sheng in the yard.
It felt an immense threat, and even though Wang Sheng was only practicing the seemingly peaceful Ba Duan Jin, it instinctively felt fear, which stemmed from Wang Sheng himself.
When the crimson smoke appeared, it began to slowly retreat, only stopping at the edge of the yard where it curled up, as if it were protecting itself.
Meanwhile, Wang Sheng was almost oblivious to the outside world, and the burning of his blood became even more terrifying; however, this burning did not decrease his strength but rather made the power of his Blood Qi even more fearsome.
Especially that crimson smoke—it contained a violent and powerful force.
Boom!
With the completion of another Ba Duan Jin movement, the blood seemed to have been fueled, the “flames” instantly intensifying.
The crimson smoke could no longer be contained and it shot up into the sky, enveloping Wang Sheng’s entire yard.
In Xu Qu’s house closest to Wang Sheng, Xu Qu was also cultivating, but he suddenly felt a powerful force interrupt his cultivation.
“Is this coming from Wang Sheng’s house?”
Xu Qu stepped outside and saw the twenty to thirty meters high blood-colored smoke.
Even though quite distant, he still felt its terrifying power as though it could crush him with ease.
Two characters suddenly popped into Xu Qu’s mind.
“Blood Qi Smoke!”
Blood Qi Smoke was something used by armies for urgent communication, signaling that war was imminent, though it hadn’t reached you yet.
Ordinary people just by seeing it felt as if dark clouds were towering over the city and a storm was approaching, creating an unconscious pressure that, over time, could break psychological defenses.
Seeing this blood-red smoke, Xu Qu felt this pressure.
So, even though it was his first encounter with such a scene, Xu Qu instantly thought of the best description in his mind.
“Wang Sheng, who exactly are you?”
Xu Qu felt he might still have underestimated Wang Sheng.
…
Just as Xu Qu speculated, after the Blood Qi like Mercury surged and burned, it formed blood-colored smoke, resembling Blood Qi Smoke.
“Blood Qi Smoke: 1%”
He had successfully transitioned from the realm of Blood Qi like Mercury to that of Blood Qi Smoke.
Currently, the progress level wasn’t high, so the Blood Qi Smoke manifested only had a height of twenty to thirty meters.
Had it reached the Great Success Realm of true Blood Qi Smoke, the effect would be like actual Blood Qi Smoke, visible for kilometers, and solely through Blood Qi, it could intimidate evil spirits within hundreds of meters, with no evil spirits daring to approach.
Wang Sheng, feeling his power gradually stabilize, also used Inner Core Skill to control his Blood Qi and retracted his Blood Qi Smoke.
Soon, the yard was calm again, as if nothing had happened.
And the large white creature, trembling since the appearance of the Blood Qi Smoke, also gradually recovered.
But as the closest contact, it still harbored some fear.
Too terrifying!
And yet, at that moment, Wang Sheng called out to it.
“Large White, come, take me into the mountains!”
Large white steadied itself and approached Wang Sheng. Although still fearful, it maintained its royal demeanor.
Wang Sheng jumped onto Large White’s back and said, “Into the mountains!”
He wanted to find a suitable place to experiment with his new abilities following the breakthrough of his Blood Qi!
