546: Chapter 546 The Astonishment of Venerable Ku Xuan!

Soon,

under Ming Yan's guidance,

the Kun Peng Heart Technique he spoke of gradually appeared in Li Fan's mind.

The technique sounded quite lofty, but upon a full review, it seemed rather unadorned. It purely instructed how to control the body and breathing rhythm to absorb the essence of the kunpeng true blood, with no flashy embellishments.

After giving it a general once-over, Li Fan didn't hesitate in the slightest. He immediately began, following the technique, to slowly control his body.

And after just a few adjustments to his breathing as per the technique, the pain in his body truly diminished significantly!

The effect was remarkable!

In an instant,

Li Fan's complexion immediately softened.

Although it still hurt quite a bit, it was now within a range he could endure.

If he could complete a full cycle of the technique, he estimated the pain might truly vanish.

"This technique is indeed excellent!"

"Many thanks, Senior Ming Yan!"

Li Fan couldn't help but sigh inwardly with emotion, while simultaneously expressing his gratitude towards Ming Yan.

This Kun Peng Heart Technique was truly a timely rain for him!

"No need for thanks, it was just a small effort."

Ming Yan waved his hand, saying with a smile.

"By the way, have you decided when you'll head to the Cosmic Abyss?"

At this point, Ming Yan shifted the topic, inquiring about the matter of the Cosmic Abyss.

Regarding this, Li Fan also held nothing back.

"It's settled. Counting from now, it will be in about two and a half months."

Hearing the specific date, Ming Yan couldn't help but nod,

"That's quite soon then."

"Alright, then I'll go back to sleep for a while. Remember to wake me when you reach the Cosmic Abyss. I have something to discuss with you."

"Understood, Senior!"

With that,

Ming Yan prepared to enter slumber once more.

Hearing this, a flicker of curiosity arose in Li Fan's heart.

Ming Yan suddenly showing concern about the Cosmic Abyss... could it be that there was some other opportunity waiting for him there?

But before Li Fan could ask, Ming Yan had already fallen into slumber.

At this, Li Fan was both amused and exasperated. He fell asleep really fast!

But it didn't matter.

Whatever the specifics were, asking upon reaching the Cosmic Abyss would be just the same.

And then,

Li Fan didn't dwell on these thoughts any further.

He pulled all his attention back to the Kun Peng Heart Technique.

He needed to circulate this Kun Peng Heart Technique as quickly as possible to completely dispel the pain.

...

Not long after,

as Li Fan continuously adjusted his body and breathing rhythm according to the technique's instructions,

he gradually began to feel no pain.

On the contrary, he even began to feel a sense of comfort.

At this moment, he felt a warm current flowing through his limbs and bones. His entire body felt as if immersed in a hot spring, incredibly comfortable.

Moreover, every cell in his body was now like a sponge encountering long-awaited rain, greedily absorbing the nutrients from the pool.

He could even distinctly feel his physical body strengthening bit by bit!

For a moment,

Li Fan couldn't help but marvel once more at the wonder of this Kun Peng Heart Technique.

Meanwhile,

Venerable Ku Xuan on the cushion by the shore had not yet noticed this point.

From his perspective,

although Li Fan's complexion had eased considerably, he was merely enduring through sheer force of will, likely forcibly resisting the pain with his determination.

Regarding this,

even though he still maintained a stern face, continuing his discourse without a hint of emotion, deep down, his appreciation for Li Fan rose another level.

At this concentration, Li Fan could still forcibly resist with willpower, and without changing expression.

This was truly exceptionally rare!

Back to Li Fan's side.

"Time to seriously listen to the discourse."

After resolving the pain issue, Li Fan couldn't help but take a deep, calm breath, a glint of determination flashing in his eyes.

Now, with the Kun Peng Heart Technique, he could be free from the interference of pain and finally devote himself wholeheartedly to Venerable Ku Xuan's discourse.

This time, he had to strive to see if he could enter a state of enlightenment, try to achieve enlightenment, and comprehend that third strand of the Law of Strength!

...

Time flowed slowly.

Five days passed quietly.

Throughout the five-day-long discourse, Li Fan listened with rapt attention, his entire being fully immersed in Venerable Ku Xuan's understanding of the Great Dao of Strength.

It must be said, as a Dao Achiever, many of Venerable Ku Xuan's viewpoints could be described as piercing straight to the heart of the matter.

This truly provided Li Fan with a moment of sudden clarity, filling him with awe.

And as he continued to listen, Venerable Ku Xuan kept elevating his insights and comprehension regarding the Great Dao of Strength and physical cultivation.

For a time, he was already in a state akin to comprehending the Great Dao, on the verge of enlightenment.

And Venerable Ku Xuan at this moment also noticed some changes in Li Fan.

"Five days have passed, yet this kid shows no signs of fainting, and he seems to have genuinely listened in?"

While continuing his discourse verbally, Venerable Ku Xuan couldn't help but mutter to himself inwardly, feeling extremely surprised.

Over these five days, Li Fan hadn't made a single sound, nor could any trace of suffering be seen on his face.

Logically, since he had increased the concentration of the Kun Peng blood in the pool, even with Li Fan's formidable willpower, after five days, he should be nearing his limit, right?!

And the most unbelievable thing was,

Li Fan seemed to have genuinely absorbed the content of his discourse.

Actually, initially, the opportunity he wanted to give Li Fan was only this Kun Ling Pool.

As for the discourse, that was purely a formality.

What kind of discourse could be given in a mere month?

A truly serious discourse session would take at least a year or two to yield any significant gains!

Of course,

He hadn't been spouting nonsense during this time; he had indeed been seriously discoursing. He simply hadn't expected Li Fan to absorb much of it.

The reason for discoursing seriously here was merely to help Li Fan divert his attention, to prevent him from being overwhelmed by the intense pain.

But the current situation was truly somewhat beyond his expectations.

It looked like Li Fan had really listened in!

And besides, was this kid really not in pain?!

Just as Venerable Ku Xuan was inwardly surprised and somewhat puzzled,

he suddenly noticed something strange.

"Something's off. Why is the concentration of kunpeng true blood in the Kun Ling Pool dropping so rapidly?"

That's right.

He noticed that the concentration of kunpeng true blood in the pool had become very thin.

And the rate of decrease was utterly unreasonable!

Actually, if it were just a simple decrease in the true blood concentration, that would be a good thing, as it would mean all the true blood was being absorbed for physical tempering.

But at such a speed, there might be a problem!

Immediately,

he expanded his divine sense to investigate the condition of Li Fan's physical body.

And this investigation made him even more astonished.

Because he didn't find any abnormalities in Li Fan's physical body at all!

In other words, Li Fan hadn't damaged his body by absorbing too quickly.

"This kid's physical talent... could it be... so terrifying?!"

Venerable Ku Xuan's mouth twitched involuntarily, and he even found it somewhat difficult to continue his discourse.
