The Lord of the Laws of Heaven

Chapter 34 Preparation for Training
"If that's the case..." Xiao Jun sensed the blood and fire in his dantian, and it seemed that he had created something extraordinary.

"I still need to do more experiments..."

Xiao Jun then found the next tree and used his blood fire to burn the life energy within. After half an hour, he retracted his own blood fire. A stream of essence once again flowed from his dantian into his body, becoming nourishment to make up for the loss.

Then he started to devour the next tree. He stood in front of the tree, infused it with fighting spirit to stimulate blood and fire. He stood quietly in front of the tree, allowing the blood and fire to carefully squeeze it, and every wisp of life energy turned into nourishment.

"Although it is very simple to make up for the loss, the efficiency is a bit low." Xiao Jun let his own blood and fire burn the life energy of the trees. This method allowed him to make up for the loss in about five hours, which was much easier than his hard work to restore his own essence and blood.

But burning trees without doing anything else was a bit too boring. After waiting for half an hour, the trees in front of him turned to ash again. Xiao Jun stopped burning trees to make up for himself and began to think about burning something more valuable.

"Spiritual herbs, magical beasts..." These were the two things the blood fire was best suited to burning, and these two were most abundant in the Magic Beast Mountains. If his blood fire could be improved and its efficiency in devouring life increased, then for Xiao Jun, going to the Magic Beast Mountains would be like a mouse falling into a rice warehouse.

He came to the spiritual herb he had planted and directly stretched out his hand to shoot out a wisp of blood fire. The blood fire landed on the tender sprout and quickly squeezed out the life energy within.

"Sure enough, the essence contained in spiritual herbs is abundant, making them more easily devoured by blood and fire. Burning trees is really foolish." Xiao Jun felt a little ashamed of his foolish act of burning trees just now, but then he thought, if he could spread blood and fire to devour an entire forest in a few breaths, and refine the life energy of all the plants in the forest into his own nourishment...

In the space of an incense stick, the tender shoots of the spiritual grass instantly turned to ash, and the blood and fire flew back to Xiao Jun's dantian, emitting a stream of essence that became his own nourishment, making up for his own shortfall. Sensing this essence, Xiao Jun frowned at first, then smiled.

"Blood and fire...are formed from the vital energy of the human body. Life is an incomparably wonderful thing, and blood and fire also carry a certain mystical quality."

What surprised and delighted Xiao Jun was that when the blood and fire returned to his dantian, not only did it extract the vital energy that became his origin, it also emitted a medicinal effect that acted upon his body. Initially, Xiao Jun frowned because he feared that if he accidentally burned the poisonous weeds, the poison would enter his body along with the blood and fire. Wouldn't that be suicide, and a very foolish one at that.

But everything has its pros and cons. This means that Xiao Jun's blood fire can extract the essence of life by extracting the vital energy as nourishment, and it can also purify the medicinal power! Purifying the medicinal power means that it can be used to refine medicine!
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! The way of life is indeed extremely mysterious. There are infinite treasures within life. Using blood and qi to transform into flames is so mysterious!" For Xiao Jun, he now has many choices. He has been envious of the alchemist's ability to make money for a long time.

"Such a mysterious method, I don't know if it's my selfish motive, I'm a little reluctant to tell others." Xiao Jun shook his head and sighed, began to deeply analyze his own psychology, and began to think about whether he had selfish motives.

The conclusion came quickly. While he had some selfish motives, they were not significant. However, such a profound fighting skill was like a treasure. If others knew about it, it would be like a child carrying gold in a busy market. Being discovered and robbed would be a minor offense, but being beaten to death would be a major one.

'It's a pity that I promised Xiao Zhan that I would help him improve his fighting skills in practicing martial arts, but I may have to break my promise...' Xiao Jun's brain began to work, looking for a solution. Essentially, he wanted to invest in Xiao Yan through Xiao Zhan. After managing some relationships, he could use this favor to ask for enough profit.

For Xiao Jun, this calculation was solely for his own benefit. In the future, he not only wanted to obtain the Origin Qi, but also things like cultivation techniques and powerful exotic fires. At the very least, he wanted to research them! His current investment was an investment in favor, and managing this intangible favor well would yield tangible profits in the future.

Xiao Jun could abandon the so-called Blood and Fire Fighting Skill at any time, even spreading it around the world. The real reason Xiao Jun needed to ban this fighting skill was because he was currently too weak, and because of his weakness, he had many concerns.

"What a worry! Why am I so clever!" Xiao Jun rubbed his cheeks, slapping them with his palms and sighing. If he weren't so clever, he wouldn't have this worry. He wouldn't dare reveal a single fighting skill. Because of his own intelligence, he had already acquired an extraordinary secret technique that he dared not show to others. This was the worry of being clever!

"If that doesn't work, I can design a new fighting skill to speed up my cultivation?" Suddenly, such an inhuman thought flashed through my mind.

……

Xiao Zhan looked at the scroll Xiao Jun handed him, opened it, and read it word for word. Although he didn't gain any profound insights, he exclaimed in admiration. "Amazing! Amazing! You've created such a method to accelerate cultivation. If what you say is true, it can increase the speed of cultivation at the Fighter level by 150%. Amazing!"

"It's just that..." Xiao Zhan pondered with some doubt, and said to Xiao Jun: "The principle of your fighting skills is a little different from the fighting skills you described at the beginning."

"The fighting skill I originally chose was to use blood and energy to transform into flames to refine fighting spirit, but this fighting skill has side effects. It will produce dry fire and turbid air, which is harmful to cultivation. So I created a new fighting skill." Xiao Jun quickly evaded the question with the truth.

"Using the water of essence to cleanse your body and extract your fighting spirit? That's a good idea." Xiao Zhan nodded, holding up the scroll in his hand and motioning to Xiao Jun, "Your fighting spirit, 'Original Water Fighting Skills', is extraordinary. Are you just going to give it to me? Do you need any reward?"

The "Primordial Water Fighting Technique" was a fighting technique Xiao Jun created to increase his training speed when preparing to conceal the Blood and Fire Fighting Technique. It draws essence from the human body and transforms it into Primordial Water. Using the principle of dissolution and extraction, it makes the fighting spirit extremely docile and can be quickly refined by the human body.

This fighting technique wasn't just created to counter Xiao Zhan's creation; it also formed the basis of Xiao Jun's own cultivation techniques. Xiao Jun's fighting spirit was earth-based, so naturally, he needed to study earth-based cultivation techniques. Never underestimate the earth; nearly all treasures in the world originate from it.

Xiao Jun also comprehended the Earth's understanding of life and the universe. Life contains the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit. The earth has three treasures: water, fire, and wind. So he developed a method to condense the essence of the human body into a strange water, which is also a part of the origin of life and complements blood and fire.

So, following this line of thought, Xiao Jun pondered over it, even asking Number Two to come to the Star Map space every day to help him create and research his own martial arts. He also developed this fighting skill as a puzzle piece for his own martial arts.

Xiao Jun pondered for a moment before asking Xiao Zhan, "Excuse me, Clan Leader, I need an earth-type monster egg for my cultivation. Could you give it to me?"

"Eggs of earth-type monsters?" Xiao Zhan nodded. Monster eggs are a very scarce resource because monsters usually breed in remote places. Even if monster eggs are found, the monsters will often be very irritable because of their protective nature. There are even cases where monsters fight to the death to protect their eggs, which is very dangerous.

Xiao Jun needed the eggs of earth-type monsters. In the past, Xiao Jun spent 10,000 gold coins to buy monster eggs of five attributes and fed them to Blood and Fire for them to devour. He found that the eggs of earth-type monsters were the most beneficial to him. Perhaps it was because his own soul attribute was earth?

Although monster eggs are relatively rare, they are still obtainable for Xiao Zhan, so he asked Xiao Jun, "How many do you want in total?"

"The more the better." Xiao Jun was not polite at all, but soon, Xiao Jun said to Xiao Zhan: "Clan leader, I have recently reached a bottleneck in my cultivation. I want to go out and gain some experience?"

"Going out for training?" Xiao Zhan was a little surprised at first. "That's fine! Although you're only twelve years old, you've already reached the level of a two-star fighter. You do need some training, but remember to come back as soon as possible and don't miss the Canaan Academy enrollment. With your talent, you'll definitely be able to get a place at Canaan Academy. But I wonder where you're going to train?"

"The Monster Mountain Range." Xiao Jun saw Xiao Zhan frown slightly and replied directly: "I was just traveling around the outer layer of the Monster Mountain Range."

"The Warcraft Mountains are still too dangerous. I recommend that you go to the Tagor Desert for training and find the Desert Iron Mercenary Group. I have two sons there, and they should provide you with a good training environment." Xiao Zhan gave Xiao Jun some advice.

"Ok."
