15: Second Uncle [Please read]

Returning home, it was already dark.

After dinner, Han Li went into his room.

He took off his clothes, revealing a well-built physique.

Han Li opened the packaging box and picked up a Body Tempering Pill, which looked like white jade.

He sniffed it, but there was no special smell.

The Body Tempering Pill was as warm and smooth as jade.

Its medicinal power was gentle.

After a glance, Han Li swallowed the Body Tempering Pill in one gulp.

The Medicinal Pill went down his throat and into his stomach.

Han Li immediately got up and went straight to the courtyard.

The best way to absorb the medicinal power of a Medicinal Pill was through Cultivation.

This was not an Immortal Pill; it wouldn't react quickly just by swallowing it.

Han Li then began to practice the Fierce Tiger Fist.

Bursts of thunderous sounds erupted from his body.

Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound!

As he continued to Cultivate, Han Li could feel the Body Tempering Pill inside him starting to take effect.

A warm current emerged, and he felt more energetic the more he practiced.

A layer of sweat appeared on his arms.

Sounds of air being torn apart continuously rang out.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!!!"

Under the moonlight, Han Li's movements became faster and faster.

The Fierce Tiger Fist reached a new level in his hands.

Between breaths, Qi flowed in and out... Han Li only stopped late into the night.

Under the cool moonlight, Han Li stood in the courtyard, his upper body covered in sweat.

However, he did not feel tired; instead, he felt extremely refreshed.

The medicinal power of the Body Tempering Pill was continuously absorbed during Cultivation.

Han Li felt as if he had endless energy.

However, everything must be done in moderation. The Body Tempering Pill was not an Immortal Pill. Although he felt full of energy, practice still needed a standard.

After Cultivating for a few hours, he felt it was about enough.

Wiping off the sweat from his body, Han Li went inside to rest... A day passed quickly.

Under intense Cultivation, Han Li completely absorbed all the medicinal power of this Body Tempering Pill.

Normally, a Body Tempering Pill would require at least two or three days to be fully absorbed, but intense Cultivation accelerated the absorption speed. Coupled with his current entry into the Body Tempering Realm Fifth Layer, the absorption was even faster.

With a thought, Han Li opened his panel.

name: Han Li.

Realm: Body Tempering Realm Fifth Layer!

martial arts: Fierce Tiger Fist (Perfection)! Divine Travel Eight Desolations (Proficient 36%)

skill: Archery (Perfection)!

Heaven and Earth Demon Seed: (Level 1 50%)

Divine Ability: Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound (First Stage 23%)

"Indeed, Medicinal Pills assisting Cultivation and improvement are faster."

Han Li smacked his lips, looking at the panel with a smile on his face.

The Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound improved very slowly. An increase of two percent in one day was still very good.

The higher the improvement, the more difficult it became.

However, with the aid of Medicinal Pills, it was still easier.

But this method of Cultivation was something most people could not afford.

After all, this was truly burning money for Cultivation.

One Body Tempering Pill cost five taels of silver.

If he hadn't come across a windfall, Han Li wouldn't have been able to Cultivate so easily.

"It should be soon. With another Body Tempering Pill, I might have a chance to Breakthrough to the Sixth Layer."

Exhaling a breath, Han Li calmed his mind.

He took out a Body Tempering Pill and continued to Cultivate... "Pfft—!"

Two days later, with a punch that tore through the air, Han Li stood in the courtyard and retracted his hand.

His Qi and blood instantly surged, and a vast power coursed through his body.

With a thought, Han Li opened his panel.

name: Han Li.

Realm: Body Tempering Realm Sixth Layer!

martial arts: Fierce Tiger Fist (Perfection)! Divine Travel Eight Desolations (Proficient 38%)

skill: Archery (Perfection)!

Heaven and Earth Demon Seed: (Level 1 50%)

Divine Ability: Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound (First Stage 26%)

"Three Body Tempering Pills, and I finally Breakthrough to the Sixth Layer."

Han Li let out a sigh of relief, feeling the power within his body, and he could sense the changes in his physique.

Breaking through to Body Tempering Realm Sixth Layer brought a significant increase.

The next Realm would be the final stage of the Body Tempering Realm.

Strengthening the five internal organs and six viscera.

Condensing Qi and blood, strengthening muscles and bones, fortifying the five internal organs and six viscera!

These were the three stages of the Body Tempering Realm.

Having reached Body Tempering Realm Sixth Layer, the next step was to begin strengthening the five internal organs and six viscera.

"I still have seven Body Tempering Pills and five Tiger Soul Pills left... Coupled with hunting for Qi and blood, there should be hope."

Han Li made up his mind.

With that thought, he continued his Cultivation... Time flew by.

Two months passed quickly.

In Changyang Mountain, a dark figure flashed, and the next second, a sound of air being torn apart struck. An arrow, like lightning, shot towards the dark figure.

"Pfft!"

One arrow hit its target, and in the forest, Han Li's figure appeared.

A wisp of visible Qi and blood rose and entered his body.

A warm current circulated and quickly disappeared.

Han Li moved, arriving beside the dead prey, and pulled out the arrow.

He casually tossed the wild rabbit into his basket.

Scanning the jungle, Han Li walked down Changyang Mountain.

Today's hunt was over.

Walking through the mountains, his steps were incredibly light.

In two months, Han Li had consumed all the Medicinal Pills, Body Tempering Pills, and Tiger Soul Pills. Combined with the absorbed Qi and blood, he had successfully entered Body Tempering Realm Seventh Layer.

On his way back, Han Li also opened his panel to check.

name: Han Li.

Realm: Body Tempering Realm Seventh Layer!

martial arts: Fierce Tiger Fist (Perfection)! Divine Travel Eight Desolations (Proficient 91%)

skill: Archery (Perfection)!

Heaven and Earth Demon Seed: (Level 1 82%)

Divine Ability: Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound (First Stage 89%)

The auxiliary Cultivation from Medicinal Pills brought great improvement. Han Li had raised the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound to eighty-nine percent within two months.

He was only eleven percent away from First Stage Perfection.

He was quite satisfied with this progress.

"I'll see about going into the city again tomorrow or the day after."

As Han Li walked, thoughts flashed through his mind.

He would go into the city again in the next two days to buy some Medicinal Pills to aid his Cultivation.

At the same time, he would see if there was any way to get Internal Skill Mind-Cultivation Techniques or the like.

After all, without an Internal Skill Mind-Cultivation Technique, he wouldn't be able to Breakthrough the Body Tempering Realm.

Only by Cultivating True Qi could he open his meridians.

By then, he could also step out of this small area.

The vast and colorful world of Martial Dao; if he didn't go and experience it, wouldn't it be a waste of his Transmigration?

Where would the Transmigrator's dignity be!

...He descended the mountain safely.

Returning to Han Family Village, it was already dusk.

But as he approached his doorstep, Han Li froze.

At his doorstep, a tall horse was tied to a tree stump.

His courtyard gate was also open.

Someone came to his house?

But who could come to his house?

Could it be that the authorities had found some trace and sent someone to investigate his home?

A thought flashed through Han Li's mind, but he quickly regained his composure.

He had never displayed his strength in front of others, so even if there was an inquiry, it might just be normal procedure.

Calmly, Han Li continued to walk towards his home.

Upon reaching the courtyard gate, Han Li saw two figures under the old elm tree.

One was the village chief, and the other was a well-dressed middle-aged man in brocade clothes, looking very distinguished.

The village chief and the brocade-clad middle-aged man were chatting, seemingly very friendly.

As he looked at the brocade-clad middle-aged man, Han Li frowned slightly. He felt a sense of déjà vu about this man.

But he couldn't remember who he was.

"Oh, Xiao Li, you're back! Quick, quick, go put your things down."

As Han Li entered the courtyard, the village chief immediately stood up, and the other brocade-clad middle-aged man also stood up, looking at Han Li with a warm smile on his face.

Han Li: "?"

Hearing this, the tense nerves in his heart loosened slightly, and he placed his belongings in the corner.

"Xiao Li, do you still recognize me?"

At this moment, the brocade-clad middle-aged man spoke, a smile on his face.

Han Li was even more confused.

The middle-aged man felt somewhat familiar, but he couldn't recall who he was for a moment.

"Silly boy, this is your Second Uncle!"

Seeing Han Li's bewildered expression, the village chief immediately spoke.

Huh?

Second Uncle!

Hearing the village chief speak, Han Li was instantly stunned.

This... this person was his respectable Second Uncle?
