Xia Kuixing's Devilish Training

After three rounds of drinks, Zhao Aotian took his leave first.

According to him, there was still a pile of miscellaneous chores waiting to be handled.

Li Tan and Wang Longzhi naturally couldn't force him to stay.

As dawn broke, the three, whose endless longing had filled the night, were forced to part ways, silently activating their Qi to dispel the alcohol from their bodies.

Meetings are always fleeting; the path ahead can only be walked alone. Others' presence merely serves to accumulate valuable experience. All sorts of passersby and unfathomable eccentric individuals will deepen one's understanding of the world.

......

Xia Kuixing, Yan'an, Private Residence.

After some discussion, the two decided to visit their Revered Master. Whether it was Knife Technique or Body Refining, they were merely novices.

Wielding it haphazardly was passable, but discussing technique would reveal their ignorance.

Since they had a good Revered Master to guide them, they naturally couldn't foolishly waste time, putting the cart before the horse.

"Enter."

As Li Tan and Wang Longzhi reached the door, Xia Kuixing's voice already reached their ears.

With trepidation, the two cautiously pushed open the wooden door, tiptoeing, afraid of displeasing the old man.

Xia Kuixing and Yan'an were leisurely sitting in recliners, basking lazily in the sunlight.

"Revered Master, your disciples have come to visit."

The two old men paid them no mind, instead conversing amongst themselves.

"Old fellow, do you go first, or do I?"

"You teach first; I'll consider it later."

Xia Kuixing looked surprised, quite perplexed: "What wicked scheme are you brewing this time, to willingly decline? This is truly odd...."

Yan'an waved his hand lightly: "The body is the foundation of a Cultivator. First tempering the physique will be greatly beneficial. When that is done, practicing the Knife Technique will yield twice the results with half the effort."

As Yan'an finished speaking, Xia Kuixing no longer hesitated and stood up directly.

From his storage ring, he took out two Binding Clothes made of special material and casually tossed them away.

The moment they landed, the ground trembled, the stone slabs instantly shattered into pieces, and the deafening sound pierced their ears, causing extreme discomfort.

As the two looked on in shock, Xia Kuixing calmly said, "These are Binding Clothes, also known as Binding Clothes. Their weight is astonishing, making them most suitable for Body Tempering."

"The Binding Clothes have nine stages. You only need to infuse an equal amount of Qi to activate them."

"The first stage is two thousand jin, to help you quickly adapt and lay a solid foundation."

The subsequent weights are: "Four thousand jin, six thousand jin, eight thousand jin."

"Ten thousand jin, fifteen thousand jin, twenty thousand jin, thirty thousand jin, fifty thousand jin, one hundred thousand jin."

A hint of reminiscence flickered in Xia Kuixing's eyes.

"These two old relics were treasures that my brother and I never parted with back in the day."

"You brats, don't disappoint your Revered Master!"

Yan'an's voice also came through: "Within three months, you must Revered Master the second stage of the Binding Clothes. Otherwise, prepare to be thoroughly beaten by this old man."

"As for your opponents...."

.........

The scene shifted.

Wild beasts roamed rampant within the desolate mountain peak, and a chilling wind blew across their faces, sending shivers down their spines.

Occasional beast roars declared their territory to outsiders, and powerful creatures hunted weaker prey.

Violent tiger beasts ran wild, ferocious leopards roamed unchecked, and wolf packs shimmered with cunning....

On a branch of a large tree, two people were gnawing on wild fruits, chatting merrily, their hearty laughter echoing through the mountain peak.

Below them, two youths were being chased by a bear Yao Beast, utterly disheveled and scurrying away in panic.

"Brother Tan, these Binding Clothes are too heavy! I can't run anymore!"

The youth panted, his forehead covered in a fine layer of cold sweat.

"You have to run even if you can't! This bear Yao Beast's cultivation is as high as the tenth level of Qi Refining!"

"What's more, our combat strength is less than half, and there are unknown Yao Beasts behind it, eyeing us covetously."

The bear Yao Beast behind them, its eyes flickering with a green glow, easily tore through obstacles with its sharp claws, and its loud roar was deafening.

Seeing the two lively youths further ignited its bestial urges! It ran, drooling all the way.

The foul, bloody smell constantly stimulated his nostrils. Wang Longzhi frowned, forcefully suppressing his discomfort, and charged forward.

The chasing scene made the two on the tree burst into laughter.

Xia Kuixing's interest piqued, and he grabbed a fruit, throwing it in Wang Longzhi's direction.

"Ah!"

A cry of pain made them even more delighted, and Xia Kuixing continuously showed off his accuracy.

Yan'an, beside him, refused to be outdone. He grabbed two fruits and threw them towards Li Tan and Wang Longzhi.

"Ah!"

Why was there only one scream?

Following the sound, it turned out that both fruits had hit Wang Longzhi's head simultaneously.

Xia Kuixing laughed heartily, pointing at Yan'an and teasing him playfully: "Old fellow, you're getting old, your eyes aren't even working well anymore!"

"To miss at such a close distance, it seems my accuracy is slightly better again."

Yan'an's face was filled with displeasure: "Just now, this old man's eyes were blurry. Do you dare to compete with me?"

Xia Kuixing snorted coldly: "Old fellow, am I afraid of you? Today, I'll make you lose convincingly."

"See that brat's butt? Whoever hits it ten times first is the winner!"

Yan'an subtly adjusted his finger's direction: "Wang Longzhi's butt is bigger, easier to hit. Let's use him as the target."

"No problem at all!"

Screams were incessant, the birds in the forest were startled, chirping and scattering in all directions.

Herbivorous beasts migrated en masse, creating a chaotic scene.

....................

Three months later.

The mountain peak had undergone a great transformation. The once dense trees had become sparse and broken, and the once rampant wild beasts now hid in caves, unwilling to emerge.

In a dirt pit on the west side, a massive bear lay quietly.

Its body was covered with large lumps, its jowls were adorably puffed out, and its two ears were deeply sunken.

Faintly, Wang Longzhi's voice could be heard:

"Stinky bear, you wanted to eat this young Revered Master? Today, I'll give you a taste of your own medicine. I'll take off your useless parts."

His iron fists, as large as sandbags, swung rapidly like lightning, only their afterimages visible, not their actual forms. Wang Longzhi smiled smugly, running a hand through his messy hair.

The giant bear lay on the ground, seemingly lifeless, occasionally twitching slightly, which was probably due to nerve impulses.

"Brother Tan, these Binding Clothes don't seem to be difficult at all anymore. Now, wearing them feels like nothing."

"All the beasts on this mountain peak have been scared stiff by us. This giant bear, with its big mouth, still wasn't convinced, but now it's obedient."

"Truly, they don't shed tears until they see the coffin!"

The messy scene made Li Tan give an awkward smile.

"Brother Long, today marks the three-month period. According to what Revered Master said earlier, we need to activate the third stage of the Binding Clothes."

"The third stage has doubled, it's a full six thousand jin!"
