[You learned the [Throwing Technique: Lv1] Skill]
My first Skill and it is about throwing rocks. Why haven’t I gotten one for my Techniques?
It seems that Qi or Aether-related abilities or techniques are simply not registered into the Book as Skills… Did Lucifer miss this? Is he an idiot? Yes, he is.
I immediately noticed various things. Eleanora’s kills can give me full EXP, each wolf is 100 EXP, and by doing certain actions, I can learn new skills.

[Throwing Technique: Lv1]
Skill Proficiency: 0/10000
Enhances the power of the action of throwing all sorts of projectiles alongside their speed by +10% with each level.

I see. To level it up, I am required to gain Skill Proficiency and enhance its power by an additional +10%… Meaning that I can just constantly throw things to gain proficiency? Hm.
I suppose we are going down to the very basics.
I began to pick up some stones while Eleanora praised me.
“Wonderful job, Blake! Where do we store the corpses?” she wondered.
“Leave them there, I don’t have any dimensional inventory to store things for the moment.” I said.
“Oh, I see…! Huh? …Why are you picking up stones?” she asked.
“I gained a Skill named Throwing Technique. I don’t know if you can learn it too, try to throw rocks.” I said.
“Oh, very well!” Eleanora said, grabbing the stones and firing them at the nearby tree.
After throwing ten times, nothing happened.
I see, so there are certain Skills that can only be learned by me.
I would assume that Summons have specific skills they can learn and are not as free to develop as I am…
“I cannot learn it…” she sighed.
“Don’t worry about it, your abilities are already impressive by themselves.” I said while petting her head.
Eleanora sighed with a faint smile.
“I suppose! I am a Spirit now, huh?” she said, as she walked at my side, and I extended my hands towards the fresh corpse of the wolf.
I pierced its neck with my index finger, and then began draining its blood.
“Qi Refining Technique.”
FLASH!
By infusing my own Qi into the corpse and then bringing it back to my body, I can refine the Qi by making it absorb all the blood from the corpse.
I lose normal Qi and bring back Blood Qi, as simple as that. This is how other elements are usually achieved, the higher the quality of the item you’re refining your Qi with, the greater the quality of the new Qi as well.
I couldn’t see any notification from the book, but I clearly felt I gained a good amount of Blood Qi after doing the same with every corpse. At my current age I have around 40 to 50 Qi at max. I used it all repeatedly, so now I got a new separate Qi that is flowing through my body, aside from the normal one, which is never annoyed by any other type of Qi, thankfully.
“I’ve gathered enough Blood Qi now… I suppose I can use some techniques and also begin the refining of my body.” I said.
“Oh! Are you planning on making yourself into a Vampire through Blood Qi?” wondered Eleanora.
“Not really, being a Vampire only brought me many hardships at my younger age, but I do plan on gaining something of a physique similar to it, it shouldn’t be so hard. I’ve already memorized the basics, I can combine the most effective physique and methods I’ve learned and make the strongest of them all that can also be used even by a toddler… though I require a lot of Blood Qi to slowly form it, so we are coming to hunt regularly… I will begin immediately.” I said.
I sat cross-legged in the middle of the forest as I began to make the Blood Qi flow through my body. Making it flow as if it were blood itself, across my veins gave me an unexpected boost to my capabilities, it made my bloodstream flow rapidly as my heart began to beat faster. This was the specialty of Blood Qi, it was very effective at enhancing all your physical body basic functions such as bloodstream flow, breathing, heart beating, digestion, and more.
There were even certain techniques that could consume large quantities of calories at once for explosive growth in strength for a bit of time, before collapsing, but that might be left for another day when I am cornered.
The bright crimson-red essence flowered around my Qi Veins and began to slowly refine them into special Blood Qi Veins, meanwhile, my Qi Core was also being refined, and from its white color, it turned crimson red.
As a master that has used Blood Qi for thousands of years, I can accomplish such feats in seconds. Even as a toddler, now that I can finally use the power that I’ve specialized the most, it is a walk in the park.
FLASH!
For a moment, the Blood Qi also reached all my Pressure Points and even my eyes. A side effect of such a thing is making my eye color turn red temporarily, this is good, as it enhances my vision and I can now be able to use the advanced form of Night Vision, Dark Vision, I can see even clearly at night than ever before. Everything seems clear to me, even in this dark forest.
This is the power of Blood Qi.
I gathered all the knowledge I had accumulated in my previous life and created a new Physique Technique out of all of this accumulated knowledge. Let’s call it the ultimate physique that a genius such as myself can accomplish.
Vampiric Blood Emperor Physique.
FLASH!
My body suddenly emanated the aura of an Emperor if only for a bit, the power surging through every inch of this little body was beyond this world. I had already created something that defied this world’s laws, and I could already feel the world reacting to my actions…
