41: Second stage of body training

Teacher Yan was very satisfied with Qin Yue's answer. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "You don't need to serve me. My condition is that you must achieve Body Refinement Stage Two before you can Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm. Before Body Refinement Stage Two, you must continue to accumulate Blood Qi and not Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm."

"Teacher Yan, why do you want me to Breakthrough to Body Refinement Stage Two before Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm? Are there any benefits?"

Hearing Teacher Yan's request, Qin Yue knew that there must be benefits to Breakthrough to Body Refinement Stage Two before Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm, otherwise Teacher Yan wouldn't make such a request.

Hearing Qin Yue's question, Teacher Yan still had that smiling expression.

"You are indeed clever!

There are indeed great benefits!

Breaking through to the Liquid Transformation Realm at Body Refinement Stage One allows one to condense twelve drops of Blood Qi liquid inside the body. After that, Cultivating in the Liquid Transformation Realm is about strengthening and refining these twelve drops of Blood Qi liquid. But even if you Breakthrough to the Ninggang Realm, you will still only have twelve drops of Blood Qi liquid.

However, Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm at Body Refinement Stage Two allows one to condense thirty-six drops of Blood Qi liquid. When you want to Breakthrough again, you will know how beneficial these extra twenty-four drops of Blood Qi liquid are."

"Since Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm at Body Refinement Stage Two has so many benefits, why doesn't everyone Cultivate to Body Refinement Stage Two before Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm?"

"Why?

The first reason is that it's impossible to achieve!

You can try. With your current Blood Qi quality, if you were to re-Cultivate the skin, flesh, and bones that have already completed Stage One, would there be any change?

Body Refinement Stage Two is something that can only be achieved by Cultivating with the Blood Qi liquid of the Liquid Transformation Realm!

And even if there were a method to substitute Blood Qi liquid, allowing people to achieve Stage Two, many would still not choose to Cultivate it. The reason is lack of time.

The golden period for Martial Dao Cultivation is limited. Achieving Body Refinement Stage Two before Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm will not only delay the time to Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm.

To condense thirty-six drops of Blood Qi liquid, the difficulty of Cultivation in the Liquid Transformation Realm and Ninggang Realm is also more than three times that of others. Powerful combat ability inherently requires more resources and time to achieve.

After hearing all this, do you still want to Cultivate the Liquid Transformation Realm's Blood Qi Cultivation Technique?"

Qin Yue didn't hesitate at all and directly replied to Teacher Yan, "Teacher Yan, I want to learn the Liquid Transformation Realm's Blood Qi Cultivation Technique in advance, and I am also willing to Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm after Body Refinement Stage Two."

Qin Yue was so decisive because he had the AFK System as his foundation. Qin Yue had observed that his current Cultivation speed was definitely several times that of his classmates.

Condensing thirty-six drops of Blood Qi liquid would only make his Cultivation difficulty three times that of others; he would still be ahead of others.

Moreover, stronger abilities at the same stage would also allow him to obtain better training and resources, so Qin Yue naturally chose Body Refinement Stage Two.

"Since you are willing to Cultivate, I can teach you the Liquid Transformation Realm's Blood Qi Cultivation Technique now. However, the price of Medicinal Pills that support the Liquid Transformation Realm's Blood Qi Cultivation Technique is a hundred times that of Blood Replenishing Powder, so you will have to take on more demon-slaying missions in the future."

After speaking, Teacher Yan took out a Secret Manual and handed it to Qin Yue. Qin Yue took it and saw five large characters written on the cover: "Blood Transformation Yuan Gathering Art."

"Take this Cultivation Technique back and read it yourself. It contains descriptions of how to Breakthrough to the Liquid Transformation Realm. You don't need those things right now; you mainly need to learn the Cultivation Technique that accelerates the refinement of Blood Qi."

After speaking, Teacher Yan took out another porcelain bottle from the medicine shelf behind him. He handed the porcelain bottle to Qin Yue and continued,

"This bottle contains ten Blood Replenishing Pills, which are auxiliary medicines for Cultivating the Blood Transformation Yuan Gathering Art. These ten Blood Replenishing Pills are enough for you to switch to Cultivating the Blood Transformation Yuan Gathering Art. In the future, you will need to exchange them with contribution points for your Cultivation."

Qin Yue was somewhat touched by Teacher Yan's selfless gift.

Since his Transmigration to this world, Teacher Zhao in Shiqiao Village and Teacher Yan in the Martial Arts Academy had both been extremely kind to him. Although he would become successful, and both Teacher Zhao and Teacher Yan would gain some benefits, he could still feel that these two people genuinely cared for him.

Even if Teacher Zhao hadn't given him so much Blood Replenishing Powder and hadn't taught him the Mad Demon Saber Technique at that time, it wouldn't have affected the rewards Teacher Zhao himself received, yet he still gave them.

Teacher Yan didn't have to help him with Guiding Poison into the Body, and not giving him Blood Replenishing Pills now wouldn't affect his teaching, yet Teacher Yan still gave them.

Since his Transmigration, Qin Yue felt that the kindness he had received from others in this world was more than all the kindness he had received from others in his previous twenty-plus years combined.

Qin Yue sincerely thanked Teacher Yan, took the Secret Manual, and returned to his small courtyard.

Upon returning to his small courtyard, Qin Yue wasn't in a hurry to Cultivate; instead, he wanted to plant something in the yard.

In fact, less than a year had passed since Qin Yue's Transmigration to this world, but the events he had experienced made him feel as if many years had passed.

Before, he had no sense of belonging to this world, so he rarely interacted with his classmates and rarely paid attention to his own life.

Now, he suddenly felt that this world was so beautiful. Although there were demons and monsters, and although there were noble families and commoners, as long as you became a Martial Artist, everyone was equal.

Children of noble families would not receive more help, and children of commoners would not be discriminated against. The overall atmosphere among Martial Artists was still one of mutual help.

Although Qin Yue would only live in the current courtyard for a year, he suddenly wanted to decorate it.

He immediately got to work. Qin Yue first tidied up the house, repaired the broken parts, then went to the back mountain to find some beautiful plants, planting flowers in every corner of the courtyard, and also found two small fruit trees to plant.

Fortunately, Qin Yue was a Martial Artist; what would take ordinary people several days to do, Qin Yue finished in a few hours.

After finishing the work, he couldn't delay his Cultivation. Qin Yue continued to adapt to the effects of Guiding Poison into the Body.

He now had to adapt to Guiding Poison into the Body in the courtyard to prevent himself from accidentally breaking things in the house.

Today, after Qin Yue circulated his Blood Qi and released the medicinal power, he suddenly felt something different.

Since all the flowers and plants in the courtyard were arranged by Qin Yue himself, everything appeared so orderly in his Super-Sense vision.

It was like the difference between looking at someone else's blueprint and looking at your own. To understand someone else's blueprint, you need to carefully read the annotations to know what is what, but with your own blueprint, you can close your eyes and still know the dimensions and data.

Qin Yue suddenly felt a sense of reality about his surroundings, with no feeling of unfamiliarity at all.

Qin Yue, in his Super-Sense state, first practiced a set of his most familiar Wild Bull Fist, then switched to Divine Bull Fist, then switched to a saber and tried a set of Mad Demon Saber Technique. After finishing, he switched to a sword and practiced a set of Holy Mountain Basic Swordplay.

After practicing all the Cultivation Techniques once, Qin Yue was certain that he had completely adapted to the Super-Sense state, at least within this small courtyard.

Qin Yue hadn't expected that merely decorating his small courtyard on a whim could produce such a great effect.

Cultivation, it seems, truly cannot rely solely on effort and logical deduction; every action in life can potentially affect Cultivation.
