Chapter 267 A Precious Gift, Qi Gong Upgrade

“I told you this last time.”

The professor's voice then came through the mental link, his speech suddenly accelerating:
"The Golden Bamba Bottle is a sacred relic left by the first Dharma King of the Black Sect. In addition to purifying the spirit and assisting the reincarnation of the soul, it was also used as a container to preserve relics, containing the spiritual power remaining after the Dharma King's body was cremated."

"The Lu family used this characteristic to build an array, absorb the essence and blood of the supernatural beings to nourish the Ancestral Spirit Tree, so as to produce the energy needed to transfer the secret realm."

"But after the bottle was shattered by the white ghost, all the energy stored inside was released. As the space changed, it combined with the spiritual energy that existed in the inner world and fell as blood rain."

"For most ordinary people, this kind of thing is almost like poison because it is too much for them to handle."

"But for us superhumans, it is a panacea for improving physical fitness, and there is a great chance to break through physical limits and improve our ability level."

At this point, the professor's tone became increasingly urgent, and he urged repeatedly:

"Of course, this state won't last long. Now is a rare opportunity, so hurry up and absorb the blood rain!"

Upon hearing this, Big Hammer immediately stood up and excitedly shouted:

"I knew it! This blood rain is definitely not simple. Maybe after absorbing it, it can extend my transformation time several times over."

As he spoke, he strode to an open area, tilted his head back, took a deep breath, and opened his arms to touch the scalding raindrops.

Seeing this, the monkey followed behind, taking a step forward and walking into the rain of blood.

Lin Chuqiao and Bailing showed a hint of hesitation on their faces.

After all, the blood rain looked so terrifying and bizarre, each drop as red as dye, and it also emitted a pungent bloody smell.

For girls who love beauty, this is really hard to accept.

But trusting the professor, they gritted their teeth and decided to risk becoming ugly and give it a try.

With trepidation in their hearts, Lin Chuqiao and Bailing slowly crawled out from under the rock wall.

As soon as it appeared, a fierce wind carrying blood rain howled in.

The rain lashed directly at their faces and skin, burning hot as if countless red-hot needles were piercing them.

The intense stimulation sent a shiver down the spines of the two women, as if they were about to be disfigured.

But remembering the professor's words, they endured the pain, gritted their teeth, and persevered.

After a few seconds, strange changes began to appear.

Lin Chuqiao vaguely felt that the raindrops dripping on her body were like sparkling light points, slowly seeping into her pores and then merging into her blood without any hindrance.

As blood circulates rapidly throughout the body, it feels like a surge of powerful energy is injected into the entire being.

All the cells in the body are instantly activated, constantly dividing, regenerating, and annihilating, at a speed dozens of times faster than normal, undergoing a frenzied renewal and iteration.

The skin blistered slightly due to the high temperature of the rain, but in the blink of an eye, the blisters quickly healed and became smooth and flat, as if it were reborn.

A constant stream of needle-like pain shot through her body, each one stimulating her nerves, causing Lin Chuqiao's delicate eyebrows to furrow involuntarily.

Along with this, an unusually wonderful feeling began to grow in her heart.

This feeling is not just ordinary comfort and ease, but a kind of instinctive desire from the depths of the soul, and the exhilaration of having it satisfied.

My whole body was enveloped by a vibrant energy, and my limbs and bones were immersed in a warm feeling, as if I were soaking in a hot spring.

It seems... somewhat similar to the situation when absorbing energy radiation from ancient remains.

Lin Chuqiao's heart stirred slightly, as if she had realized something.

"Ow—"

Suddenly, a series of howling cries echoed across the mountaintop.

That was Big Hammer cheering. He and Monkey were completely absorbed in the rain, seemingly enjoying the intense and stimulating baptism.

Lin Chuqiao withdrew her gaze, a relieved smile appearing on her lips.

Then he opened his arms, tilted his head back to face the blood rain, and let the scalding raindrops fall on his face.

After a while, she felt that this absorption was not efficient enough, so she simply sat down cross-legged on the spot, closed her eyes slightly, and tried to calm herself down.

Gradually, Lin Chuqiao entered a deep meditative state, completely forgetting the physical pain and wholeheartedly accepting this "precious gift" brought by the blood rain.

Bai Ling stood to the side, blinking her eyes, trying her best to endure the scalding heat of the blood rain.

The raindrops felt like scalding steel needles hitting my skin, stinging painfully.

Her face turned bright red, and she clenched her teeth tightly.

When my eyes fell upon Lin Chuqiao's focused and resolute appearance in the rain, I couldn't help but feel admiration and encouragement.

So he moved his slightly trembling legs and sat down next to Lin Chuqiao, trying to adjust his breathing and enter a meditative state, just like her.

Although her body was still in pain, there was a newfound determination in her eyes.

In order to become stronger, and in order to have the ability to protect herself and her companions in the future, she must endure this pain.

The other treasure hunters who were taking shelter from the rain were initially taken aback by this scene and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Their faces were full of doubt and surprise, not understanding why such a terrifying and bizarre blood rain seemed to have become a hot commodity.

Gradually, as Lin Chuqiao and the others changed their expressions and behaviors, they suddenly realized the underlying reasons.

Subsequently, people emerged from their hiding places one after another, cautiously tilting their heads back and reaching out their palms to touch the blood rain.

His expression revealed both nervousness and a hint of anticipation.

When they felt the miraculous changes as the blood-red rainwater merged into their bodies, the fear on their faces instantly vanished, replaced by surprise.

"This seems to be... the legendary nectar imbued with spiritual energy!"

Someone couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

In an instant, everyone flocked to it, following suit, and all sat down to meditate, bathing in the rain and absorbing this rare essence of heaven and earth.

On the mountaintop, blood rained down from the sky.

From a distance, the entire Misty Mountain was shrouded in an eerie red hue.

The lake, nestled in the dense forest, was also not spared from the onslaught of this bloody rain.

Raindrops hit the lake surface, splashing up red water droplets, gradually turning the originally clear lake water a light red.

Deep at the bottom of the lake, a muscular, naked figure stood in a horse stance, like a motionless statue.

It was here that Fang Cheng practiced standing meditation, qigong, and treated his internal injuries.

At this moment, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to have stopped breathing.

Not even the smallest bubbles emerged from the mouth and nose.

But this is just an appearance.

Every two or three minutes, Fang Cheng's heart would still beat slightly.

Then it pumps blood throughout the body's blood vessels, delivering blood and oxygen to other organs.

In this extremely tranquil environment, the body gradually adjusts to its most primal state.

It felt like returning to the fetal stage, surrounded by warm amniotic fluid, in a wonderfully comfortable and warm state.

Fang Cheng closed his eyes and meditated, relying on his instincts to practice breathing techniques.

He seemed to have achieved a wonderful and profound fusion with his surroundings, as if an invisible and intangible umbilical cord had been born, connecting him closely with this underwater world.

The opening and closing of the pores all over the body actually generated a weak suction force, continuously drawing in the sparse spiritual energy and nutrients floating in the water.

This is used to replenish energy, nourish every inch of the skin and every organ of the body, and accelerate the healing of damaged areas.

As internal and external energy circulate and self-repairs, a series of prompts appear on the panel.

At that moment, countless raindrops fell rapidly from the dark sky, pattering crisply and densely onto the lake surface.

The moment it touched the lake water, it created concentric circles of dark red ripples that slowly spread outwards.

The rain, with its eerie, blood-red hue, spread in wisps across the lake, gradually approaching Fang Cheng at the bottom.

At first, only a few faint, blood-red lights quietly drifted to his side, as if drawn by an invisible force, gently swirling around his body.

As the blood rain continued to fall into the lake, more and more crimson glimmers gathered, forming a hazy, dreamlike blood mist around the body.

From a distance, it looks just like a huge, dark red sphere of light.

Fang Cheng remained in a state of fetal breathing, seemingly oblivious to everything happening in the outside world.

However, his body resonated naturally with the blood rain.

As if sensing the arrival of this strange energy, every pore on my body opened up instantly under the guidance of the breathing technique, generating an even stronger suction force.

In an instant, the blood mist surrounding Fang Cheng's body seemed to have found its home, and was rapidly absorbed by countless pores.

The energy contained in every drop of blood rain flows into the body through these "tiny channels," penetrating deep into every nook and cranny.

Bright, flowing dots began to appear all over Fang Cheng's body, including his tendons, bones, muscles, and internal organs.

Then, the spiritual fire in my mind instantly became even hotter, burning fiercely.

The area between the eyebrows, where the pineal gland is located, also suddenly emitted a dazzling light.

The main body of the light was orange-red, like a wisp of flame flickering in the darkness.

Deep within, however, there are several faint golden lights, adding to its mystery.

Guided by the fire of spirituality, the strange energy absorbed into the body, like shimmering red water droplets, flows throughout the body along the meridians and blood vessels.

Wherever it goes, cells seem to be injected with stimulants, beginning to divide and recombine at an extraordinary speed.

The organs that were damaged by the fall from a great height were quickly revitalized under the nourishment of the blood energy, like a long-awaited rain after a drought.

Under the influence of this energy, the meridians and blood vessels become increasingly unobstructed, like a widened river channel, allowing the energy to surge and flow freely.

Not only that.

Fang Cheng's aura grew increasingly intense and fiery, his body appearing as if he were cooked, his skin flushed red, and his veins bulging.

As the crimson energy continued to circulate and was efficiently absorbed by muscles, bones, and internal organs, the slightly eerie crimson halo gradually faded.

The surface of the body gradually showed a trend of turning into a golden glow.

The light grew stronger and stronger until finally, he seemed like a dazzling sun submerged at the bottom of a lake.

Even in this deep, dark water, his muscular, powerful figure could not be concealed.

Gulu——Gulu——

The surrounding lake water was also scorched by this intense yang energy, and as if boiling water were being boiled, countless bubbles rose up and burst into white steam on the surface.

The blood rain continued to fall from the sky, and after falling into the lake, it was continuously attracted to gather into a boiling and surging blood-red vortex.

Fang Cheng stood there, unmoved by the changes in the outside world, his mind completely immersed in the wondrous experience of water and fire merging.

Every cell seemed to be cheering and jumping for joy, eagerly absorbing all the nutrients and energy around it, allowing the body to move towards a higher peak.

With each breath, the faint sound of thunder could be heard, the energy rhythm that governed this body of water resonating in unison.

At the same time, the panel flashed, and a series of prompts flowed by like water.

Your body has absorbed a certain type of life energy, increasing your physical constitution by 0.001.

Your body has absorbed a certain type of life energy, increasing your physical constitution by 0.001.

In the deep, dark underwater world, Fang Cheng entered a state of selfless cultivation.

The surging energy within the body, after reaching its peak, gradually subsided like the receding tide.

The fiery aura gradually subsided, and the light emanating from its body dimmed.

The once boiling and surging crimson vortex seemed to have lost some mysterious gravitational pull, and began to shrink at a visible speed.

The lake water, stained by the blood rain, gradually faded in color, as if it were being slowly diluted with clear water.

After an unknown amount of time, the lake bottom returned to its original tranquility, with only the gentle flow of water whispering in one's ear.

Fang Cheng slowly opened his eyes, his gaze like a lightning bolt piercing the darkness.

The crimson vortex surrounding him had long since dissipated.

Only faint traces of blood remained, proving that some strange phenomenon had indeed occurred.

Fang Cheng's gaze swept across the area, and he was surprised to find that there were some small fish and shrimp floating in the surrounding water.

They were entirely reddish, as if they had been roasted, and emitted a mouthwatering aroma.

Fang Cheng was slightly taken aback, then calmed himself down and examined his own condition.

The internal organs, which had shifted due to the shock of the fall from a great height, have now fully returned to their original positions and recovered completely.

Even the slightest cracks in the foot bones were repaired perfectly, leaving no trace.

The reason why this Qigong healing was able to achieve such rapid and significant results is undoubtedly due to the absorption of blood-colored energy.

It's like a fountain of life, flowing through the body and repairing damaged tissues.

At the same time, it can burn like a flame, releasing a strong, intense light.

Thinking of this, Fang Cheng's eyes flickered slightly, and his gaze fell on the dantian area below his abdomen.

A wisp of azure true energy resides here, like a boundless, tranquil sea.

Calm and undisturbed, as if nothing had changed.

But upon closer inspection, the seabed appears faintly reddish-brown, with bubbles occasionally rising to the surface.

It's like a volcano lying dormant beneath a calm sea, its molten lava ready to burst forth at any moment.

Fang Cheng's heart stirred, and he immediately summoned the panel to check the many prompts he had previously overlooked due to his excessive focus.

[You have discovered that true qi can counteract abnormal life energy. Experience +5 points]

[You have mastered the ability to use true qi to assist in flight, experience +30 points]

[You successfully healed your injury using Qigong, gaining 6 experience points.]

[You used Qigong to perfectly absorb abnormal life energy, experience +15 points]

Congratulations! Through your tireless efforts, your skills have reached the Master level.

Qigong lv2 (0/500)

Upon seeing this, Fang Cheng's eyes lit up, revealing a look of joy.

Sure enough, my qigong skills have improved!
