Crippled by Drugs (1)
For the next few days, Lin Yan practiced his tiger form.
Tiger pounces, tiger steps, and tiger turning were no longer like cats. He had the ferocious aura of a tiger being released.
His proficiency did not disappoint him. It was increasing rapidly again. In a few days, it increased to 65%.
That night, Lin Yan had already perfected all the movements of the tiger form. His movements became more and more smooth as he practiced over and over again.
Suddenly, he felt his entire body fill up. Streams of heat slowly filled the gaps in his body.
“Could this be…”
Lin Yan was delighted. Could this be the limit of the blood energy transformation that Eldest Senior Brother mentioned?
Thinking back to the last Monthly First Evaluation, although Tang Shi and the others had passed, their Five Animal Hands Technique was actually only so-so.
Could it be that the limit of blood energy transformation only needed to reach about 65%?
He closed his eyes and sensed. Soon, he realized that his blood energy was gradually accumulating, forming a boiling momentum.
It was as if it had reached the upper limit of his body and could no longer fuse with his muscles and bones.
His body also had a vague desire to try. His invisible instincts told him that as long as he allowed his blood energy to boil, his blood energy would naturally complete a transformation!
If his blood energy transformed, he would be able to enter Wei Yard through the Monthly First Evaluation.
How long had he been practicing the Five Animal Hands?
If he succeeded, he might be able to enter Wei Yard or even Dragon Yard as a genius. By then, his life, safety, and social status would be greatly improved.
However, just as Lin Yan was about to let his blood energy boil, he suddenly thought of a problem.
After his body underwent a blood energy transformation, would the Five Animal Hands still be effective?
If the Five Animal Hands Technique was ineffective, could his proficiency continue to increase?
His understanding of the Five Animal Hands Technique was becoming deeper and deeper. He instinctively felt that if he really underwent a blood energy transformation at 65%, his proficiency might stagnate and be unable to increase.
Hence, he quickly controlled the change in his blood energy and stopped practicing the Tiger Form. Instead, he studied the Ape Form.
As expected, his proficiency began to increase again, and the blood energy accumulated in his body slowly fused into his bones and muscles, no longer boiling.
“From the looks of it, as long as I continue to advance my proficiency, my blood energy won’t boil and transform.
“The others don’t have any proficiency notifications, so it’s very likely that they can’t continue increasing their proficiency. That’s why they underwent a blood energy transformation at around 65%.
“Since I already understand the true cultivation method of the Five Forms, there’s no need to be in such a hurry to break through.
“It won’t be too late to break through after I consult Eldest Senior Brother and confirm if I can continue to increase my proficiency.”
Lin Yan secretly paid attention to prevent his blood energy from boiling and transforming.
The second day was not the day for Eldest Senior Brother to teach.
A few days later, Lin Yan took advantage of Eldest Senior Brother’s arrival at Wu Yard to come to the martial arts arena.
With a casual glance, a few new disciples came to Wu Yard during this period of time.
“Senior Brother Lin Yan, you’re here.”
Three or four disciples surrounded him enthusiastically.
They were all disciples of Wu Yard and had come later than Lin Yan. Now, Lin Yan was also addressed as Senior Brother in Wu Yard.
Previously, they had surrounded Tang Shi, Bai Xin, and the others. However, after Tang Shi entered Wei Yard and stopped interacting with them, they spontaneously gathered in the Wu Yard around the few people with decent talent, eagerly fawning over him.
As Lin Yan had been praised by Eldest Senior Brother, he would occasionally be treated as a positive example by Eldest Senior Brother, so he had a few fans.
A few disciples surrounded Lin Yan and spoke at once.
“Senior Brother Lin, did you know? Recently, a new disciple has arrived. It’s said that his talent is extremely high!”
“Yes, yes, yes. I heard that the Pavilion Master personally brought him in. He has only been in the sect for a few days, but he has already become proficient in the Five Animal Hands Technique.
“I heard that his surname is Mi. A few days after he arrived, he announced that he wanted all the disciples of Wu Yard to follow his lead!”
“He’s too arrogant! How long has he been in the sect? He really thinks he’s something!”
“You can’t say that. I heard from Eldest Senior Brother that his progress in practicing the Five Animal Hands is even faster than Senior Brother Lin’s. He’s a disciple that the Pavilion Master values very much.
“I don’t believe it. How can he compare to Senior Brother Lin? Eldest Senior Brother is probably taking care of the head’s face…”
The few of them talked non-stop, but Lin Yan didn’t respond.
These people looked angry, but they were actually looking forward to a fight and trying to sow discord. They were just here to watch the show.
Soon, they also felt Lin Yan’s coldness. They felt that they were asking for a rebuff, so they bade farewell awkwardly and surrounded Yu Qian and the other disciples.
Lin Yan watched coldly from the side. He had lived two lives and was long past the age of being competitive.
Moreover, he knew his own limits. His improvement was completely dependent on proficiency and the special effect of detoxification. In terms of talent, he could not compare to a true martial arts genius.
Therefore, there was no need to be envious or jealous.
The Eldest Senior Brother soon arrived after he calmed down and waited for a moment.
After he finished lecturing and teaching, Lin Yan hurriedly went forward and asked his doubts.
Zang Wei was rather surprised. “You’ve reached the limit of blood energy so quickly? I’ve underestimated your talent. It’s not much worse than Mi Tai’s.”
‘Why the sudden mention of Mi Tai?’
Lin Yan changed the topic. “Eldest Senior Brother, after the blood energy transformation, can the realm of the Five Animal Hands still increase?”
Zang Wei shook his head. “No.”
“Please guide me, Eldest Senior Brother.”
Zang Wei said, “After your blood energy transforms, your physique will become stronger. The Five Animal Hands Technique will no longer be able to stimulate your blood energy, so you naturally can’t increase your realm.
“You don’t have to worry about the level of the Five Animal Hands. This is just a body-nourishing martial arts technique. No matter how high your level is, the effect on the transformation of your blood energy is minimal.
“Therefore, when you’re almost at your limit, you just have to break through as soon as possible.
