Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Source Power: 0

Skills:

Gale Slash (Perfection)

Blood Boiling Secret Skill (Mastered 78%)

Golden Swan Skill (Tenth Layer 38%)

Hundred Refinements Treasure Canon (Third Layer 100%)

Turtle Breath Skill (Third Layer 100%)

”Not bad, it only takes three units of Source Power to cultivate the tenth layer of the Golden Swan Skill to perfection.”

Lin Zheyu tried out the enhanced Lightweight Skill and looked at the data in his consciousness.

This time, the enhancement was done with just one unit of Source Power, increasing the progress by thirty-eight percent.

If it were someone else, not to mention adapting the Golden Swan Skill to sixfold Qi and Blood Burst, they wouldn’t be able to integrate the Shadow Step into the Golden Swan Skill without more than ten years.

It’s only because Lin Zheyu has undergone multiple enhancements, reaching an extraordinary level in body technique, and has astonishing control over his body and Qi Blood.

That’s why he can cultivate with half the effort but multiply the results.

Lin Zheyu cultivated for more than an hour again, completely adapting to the enhanced strength, then took out the Poison Canon and began to study it.

As night fell.

Lin Zheyu strolled around Xingluan District, as practicing martial arts excessively is not advisable; it’s better to balance work and rest.

Today is a traditional festival, and Xingluan Street is bustling with activities like acrobatics, opera, and dragon dances, everything you could want.

Many women playing on the street were dressed in traditional clothing, which had its own unique charm.

Lin Zheyu also saw Xu Yuxiang and Ren Qingying, but didn’t go up to greet them; his current middle-aged appearance was not suitable for such an introduction.

As he moved through the crowd, a man seemed to crash toward Lin Zheyu due to the congestion.

”Ah!”

”Spare me, big brother, spare me.”

The man cried out in pain and immediately begged for mercy.

His arm was gripped by Lin Zheyu, unable to move.

”Hmph.”

Lin Zheyu snorted; this guy really lacked awareness, trying to steal from him.

A slight force exerted in his hand, a cracking sound was heard.

The man screamed in agony, his right wrist crushed to pieces.

The commotion here attracted the attention of others, and those maintaining order came over, sensing the powerful aura rising from Lin Zheyu, they instantly became incredibly respectful.

This was just a minor episode.

After taking a lap around, eating some snacks, Lin Zheyu, familiar with the route, headed to Chunman Tower.

...

...

Morning.

Upon leaving the city, the gates were still under strict control, and people from Juedi Sect were still holding on to Liang Song’s portrait, inspecting each one.

The searches weren’t just at the city gate; the city itself had been thoroughly searched several times. Anyone who was a newcomer had their home visited.

Even the place Lin Zheyu newly rented was searched twice.

But Liang Song had long since left, making it impossible for them to find him this way.

In the forest.

The crisp sound of a bamboo whistle echoed, and soon, a plump figure darted out from afar.

”Let’s go, today we’ll find that powerful mythical beast.”

Lin Zheyu said to Xiaohei.

Xiaohei blinked, not understanding the remark.

Over time, it had learned to understand many words, but still couldn’t grasp which beast Lin Zheyu referred to.

After some gestures and explanations, Xiaohei finally understood.

Chirp chirp?

Xiaohei chirped twice, with a tone of doubt and eyes full of suspicion, as if asking, are you sure it’s okay?

He still remembered when he had led Lin Zheyu to look for that beast, only to flee in disorder.

Seeing Xiaohei’s expression, Lin Zheyu couldn’t help but feel speechless.

”Lead the way, have confidence in my strength.”

Lin Zheyu patted Xiaohei’s head and instructed.

Upon hearing these words, even though Xiaohei still harbored some doubt, it took the lead.

Most mythical beasts had their own territory but didn’t stay in one place.

After searching for a long time, one man and one beast finally found that mythical beast.

Roar!

A deafening roar echoed.

A familiar, sturdy black silhouette charged out from the forest.

The mythical beast was huge and robust, resembling an oversized rhino, but its tail was very long, nearly two meters.

Moreover, the beast’s neck was rather long, with two curved horns on its head, covered in black fur, with rough and thick skin.

With the beast’s charge, the ground trembled intensely.

Sss—

Xiaohei made a careless mistake and was swatted away by a fierce beast, letting out a pained cry.

Bang!

At this moment, Lin Zheyu moved. His speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Xiaohei.

The power of his Qi Blood surged within his body, exploding with six times its strength. At the same time, a powerful fist momentum rose.

The momentum combined with his fist skill, and a punch was thrown, instantly exploding with more than twice the power.

Howl!

The giant body of the fierce beast was blasted away by Lin Zheyu’s punch, letting out a thunderous roar.

Although the Wild Bull Fist combined with the momentum couldn’t explode with triple the power, it wasn’t far from it.

This punch from Lin Zheyu reached a terrifying strength of fourteen or fifteen times.

Tweet tweet!

Xiaohei’s eyes immediately lit up. It flipped around and stood upright, baring its teeth and continuously swiping its claws at its opponent.

Leap.

Lin Zheyu leapt forward, charging towards the fierce beast.

Bang bang bang—

Thump thump sounds arose as man and beast engaged in an intense battle.

Lin Zheyu did not use the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, wanting to see if he would be utterly defeated without it.

If using the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, his endurance wouldn’t last long, and there would be no way to refine the Wild Bull Fist.

But with his current physique, even without the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, he could use 2.2 times his previous Qi Blood strength in a normal state.

Bang bang bang.

The battle was extremely fierce. Without using the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, Lin Zheyu was at a disadvantage the entire time.

The beast’s attacks landed on him with muffled thuds.

Fortunately, his physique was incredibly strong now. Relying on his extraordinary body technique, he dodged and weaved to dissipate some of the force, leaving the beast’s attacks causing only minor injuries.

Bang—

Suddenly, Lin Zheyu was violently knocked away by the beast’s strike.

He lightly tapped the trunk of a nearby tree with his toe, then once more swung the Wild Bull Fist, charging at the beast.

Bang bang bang!

Another series of intense collision sounds.

Even without using the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, no matter how extraordinary Lin Zheyu’s lightweight skill was, he couldn’t match the beast’s strength.

Fortunately, after integrating the Shadow Step, even though it wasn’t fully merged, his agility had improved a notch from before.

Lin Zheyu, like a phantom, maneuvered around the beast using elusive body techniques.

Meanwhile, his fists continuously struck the beast, producing bang bang sounds.

Bang!

Suddenly, a careless mistake, and Lin Zheyu was swatted away again.

Luckily, he deflected much of the force with his extraordinary body technique and easily withstood it with his strong physique.

Howl!

The fierce beast roared, not rushing to pursue.

Its eyes showed a gleam of mockery, as if toying with an amusing toy.

”It’s a pity that there isn’t enough Qi Blood strength, otherwise I wouldn’t be so passive.”

Lin Zheyu felt somewhat helpless.

If he didn’t use the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, his attacks on the beast felt no more than tickles and were unable to inflict any real damage.

However, if he used the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, he wouldn’t last long, and couldn’t refine the Wild Bull Fist and fist momentum properly.

Whoosh—

Lin Zheyu moved again, charging forward once more.

His main goal now was to refine the Wild Bull Fist and fist momentum, rather than defeating this fierce beast.

After confirming that even without the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, the fierce beast posed no life-threatening danger, he was completely at ease.

Such a powerful fierce beast, yet without the capability to threaten his life, wasn’t it the perfect subject for refining the Wild Bull Fist?

Bang bang bang—

The fierce battle began anew.

Lin Zheyu, like a phantom, evaded the beast’s attacks with agile body techniques.

Though hit and knocked away from time to time, they were only minor injuries, quickly recovered with the circulation of Qi Blood power in his body.

As the fight went on, Lin Zheyu’s control over momentum became increasingly proficient.

Nearly ten minutes later.

”Time to retreat, Qi Blood strength is running low, I’ll return after recovering.”

Feeling that less than twenty percent of his Qi Blood strength remained, Lin Zheyu contemplated retreat.

He quickly withdrew, retrieved the tracking powder from his pocket, poured it into his hand, and approached the beast to smear it on its body.

Immediately after, he activated the Qi and Blood Burst Skill, explosively unleashing six times the Qi Blood power, with his speed soaring madly.

He grabbed the wildly gesticulating, exhilarated Xiaohei beside him, and disappeared into the mountain forest.

The fierce beast, upon seeing this sudden shift, paused in bewilderment.

Then, it let out an earth-shattering roar, swinging its claw to pulverize a nearby tree trunk.
