Battle Through the Heavens: Inward Cultivation, Crying Xiao Yan

"Chaos!"

Seeing the Foundation Building Elixir spilling out of the bucket, Xiao Yang felt a pang of heartache.

However, there was no other way; if he didn't hide it, it would be bad if the old doctor found out.

Just then, Xiao Yang suddenly remembered that he still had a reward to claim!

I was so focused on watching the Eight Extremes Collapse and the Body Tempering Pill that I forgot about this.

That was the reward for having Xiao Yan copy down the Lieshan Fist technique.

"System, claim your reward."

The next moment, three more dots appeared on his forehead.

In addition, an extra storage ring appeared in the system space.

Xiao Yang took it out and saw that it was a black ring with some dark red patterns on it.

He put the ring on his index finger and found it fit perfectly.

The storage ring is made of storage stone and is very precious.

Such a storage ring would cost tens of thousands of gold coins!

Xiao Yang channeled a bit of fighting spirit into it and sensed a small space.

This is the space inside the storage ring, which can be used to store inanimate objects.

Inside is a cube with sides of two meters, which is eight cubic meters of space.

This space is considered relatively large for a low-level storage ring.

After experiencing it for a while, he stored it in the system space.

It seems that only Xiao Zhan in the Xiao family possesses such a precious item.

Therefore, this storage ring cannot be displayed casually.

After putting his things away, Xiao Yang entered the bathtub and began to cultivate.

……

Soon, the night had passed.

Xiao Yang was fascinated by the feeling of gradually becoming stronger.

If the Foundation Building Elixir is this effective, I wonder how the Foundation Building Divine Elixir will be.

After the effects of the Foundation Building Elixir in this bathtub wear off, he must experience it properly.

After drying himself off and getting dressed, Xiao Yang prepared to begin practicing the Eight Extremes Collapse.

Chapter 16 Heading to the Market

[Task: Practice Eight Extremes Collapse 36 times; Reward: Eight Extremes Collapse Proficiency +1]

Xiao Yang was somewhat surprised after setting up the mission.

As expected of the Eight Extremes Collapse, its cultivation difficulty is indeed higher than that of the Fierce Mountain Fist.

He began to channel his Qi along the meridian lines he remembered.

It was different from when I first started practicing the Fierce Mountain Fist.

When practicing the Eight Extremes Collapse, although it was only his first time practicing, Xiao Yang was already able to channel his fighting spirit into the meridians required by the Eight Extremes Collapse.

Although the speed is relatively slow.

He knew that this must be the reason for his improved comprehension.

With improved comprehension, everything becomes easier, whether it's practicing combat skills, learning alchemy, or anything else.

Even understanding the laws of space will be simpler in the future.

In this way, Xiao Yang completed two Baji Collapse proficiency tasks in one morning.

However, even before he claimed the reward, his proficiency level had already increased a bit on its own!

It should be noted that the difficulty of cultivating Bajiquan is several levels higher than that of Lieshanquan.

Although he is not yet able to cultivate a layer of internal strength, he can quickly gather his fighting spirit and concentrate it in the meridians corresponding to the Eight Extremes Collapse.

He was going to see how much proficiency he could improve during this period.

As for the proficiency level of the system task rewards, he planned to claim them all later.

……

And just like that, a day quickly passed.

In one day, he completed the Baji Collapse proficiency task five times.

As for my own improvement in proficiency, it's still only the same as it was this morning.

However, Xiao Yang did not feel discouraged.

Anyway, my comprehension will continue to improve in the future.

In the end, the efficiency of improving proficiency through self-cultivation might even be higher than the system rewards.

After spending the night cultivating his fighting spirit, Xiao Yang ate breakfast and then set up two tasks.

[Task: Practice Eight Extremes Collapse 36 times; Reward: Eight Extremes Collapse Proficiency +1]

[Task: Raise the Eight Extremes Collapse skill level to Minor Completion. Reward: Constitution +1, Root Bone +1, and one bottle of Restoration Elixir]

Looking at the mission rewards, Xiao Yang sighed inwardly. As expected of a high-level Xuan-rank fighting technique, the mission rewards were indeed more than those of the Lieshan Fist.

After setting up the mission, Xiao Yang began to cultivate the Eight Extremes Collapse.

……

And so, in the afternoon, Xiao Yang finally completed the eighth Eight Extreme Collapse proficiency task.

He is preparing to continue building the mission.

Just then, he discovered that his proficiency in Bajiquan had improved once again!

Looking at the beginner level of 2/10 on the system panel, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Without the slightest hesitation, he directly claimed the proficiency rewards he had accumulated.

"System, claim your reward!"

The next moment, a flood of insights appeared in Xiao Yang's mind.

Because I received a proficiency bonus of eight points at once, I had a lot of insights this time.

Xiao Yang felt as if he had practiced Baji Beng countless times.

At the same time, a familiar system notification sounded in his mind.

[Task: Raise the Eight Extremes Collapse skill level to Minor Completion. Reward: Constitution +1, Root Bone +1, One Rejuvenating Elixir. Completed. Claim reward?]

He was too preoccupied with the insights his digestive system was giving him to accept the reward.

He discovered that after his comprehension improved, the speed at which he processed and understood his insights increased significantly.

He quickly digested all his insights.

He stood up excitedly, went to the wooden dummy that the servants had brought over yesterday, and threw a powerful elbow strike forward.

"Whoosh!"

The sound of wind breaking filled the air, and his clothes rustled.

"Boom!"

"Crack!"

The wooden dummy was snapped in two by that elbow strike!

Xiao Yang's clothes had a hole at the elbow, revealing his slightly reddened elbow.

However, he paid no attention to any of that at the moment; his eyes were filled with excitement.

I finally managed to unleash the Eight Extremes Collapse in its entirety!

Although it was only a single, hidden force.

However, its power is far beyond what the Fierce Mountain Fist can compare to.

Unlike the Lieshan Fist, which can be barely performed even when one has just begun to learn it.

The Eight Extremes Collapse technique is very difficult to master, requiring the application of internal force.

Only by reaching a certain level of proficiency can one successfully unleash the true Eight Extremes Collapse.

However, Xiao Yang also discovered that the Eight Extremes Collapse consumed a lot of energy.

Although he had already reached the eighth level of Dou Qi.

However, he can only use the Eight Extremes Collapse a dozen or so times before he exhausts all the fighting energy in his dantian.

A hint of helplessness appeared on his face.

The cultivation of Bajiquan is not like Lieshanquan, which can be reversed.

The power of the Eight Extremes Collapse is too great, and it also contains hidden force. If he tries to stop it by force, he will be injured instead.

So the only option is to shoot it out.

In other words, every time he practices the Eight Extremes Collapse a dozen times, he needs to recover his fighting spirit once.

The Foundation Building Elixir, which could have lasted for more than a month, may not be able to last that long.

However, this is also a good thing.

The process of replenishing one's fighting spirit after it is depleted can slightly increase one's cultivation level.

After tidying up the broken wooden dummy and changing his clothes, Xiao Yang accepted the mission reward.

His physical constitution and physique improved a little more.

At the same time, he also acquired a bottle of Rejuvenating Elixir.

After having his servants tidy up the courtyard, Xiao Yang prepared to head to the market.

The previous wooden dummy was made of ordinary wood and was intended for children in the fighting spirit stage.

Xiao Yang used the advanced Xuan-level fighting technique, Eight Extremes Collapse, to interrupt him directly.

When practicing Bajiquan later, you'll definitely need a target.

So he decided to go to the market to buy a better sandbag.

I also went out for some fresh air.

Since obtaining the system, he has basically never left his small courtyard.

It's time to go out and get away for a while.

Back in his room, carrying the several hundred gold coins he had saved up over the years, Xiao Yang headed towards the market.

……

After leaving the Xiao family, Xiao Yang headed directly towards the nearest market town.

The Xiao family owns several wards and markets in Wutan City.

The one closest to the Xiao family home was the most prosperous of them all.

These markets are said to belong to the Xiao family, but in reality, the Xiao family is only responsible for maintaining order and security.

Then the merchants and vendors will pay a fixed amount of money as a reward.

The Xiao family's main task was to prevent some people from causing trouble.

You could say they were mercenaries, or to put it more bluntly, security guards.

The place Xiao Yang visited this time is located in the center of Wutan city, and it has all kinds of goods.

After leaving the Xiao family home and turning onto several wide streets, Xiao Yang could faintly hear many vendors calling out their wares.

Soon, he arrived at the entrance of the market.
