Plans can't keep up with changes.

Chen Feng's expression changed drastically.

Increased strength comes with enormous energy consumption.

Hunger and weakness surged up like a tide, completely overwhelming Chen Feng.

Every cell in his body was screaming.

"This is bad!"

Chen Feng immediately sprang up from the bed.

With a loud "clang".

He stormed out the door.

He needed to find something to replenish his qi and blood quickly, whether it was medicine or meat, he had to replenish his energy as soon as possible.

Whether it can be absorbed is unknown.

Chen Feng knew that if he didn't get replenished soon, he would be completely drained!

The body's abundant blood and energy are being frantically drained away at an almost tearing speed.

A bone-chilling weakness washed over me from all my limbs and bones.

A wave of dizziness rushed to my head.

It looked like he would collapse to the ground at any moment.

Seemingly sensing the crisis at this moment, the Tai Chi Profound Origin Technique started operating on its own. With each breath, Chen Feng drew upon the Profound Origin True Qi accumulated within his body.

It replaced the blood and qi, sustaining Chen Feng.

My thoughts managed to regain some clarity.

Furthermore, while practicing the Tai Chi Profound Origin Technique, his movements became faster and his energy expenditure decreased slightly.

My physical strength is also recovering.

but......

not enough!

Far from enough!

He won't last long.

Chen Feng clenched his teeth tightly, pressing his tongue against the space between his teeth, forcing out a sliver of strength.

The wind whistled past my ears.

Its two legs swung so fast that they almost left afterimages.

The pillars rushed past in his eyes.

I went straight to the martial arts school's pharmacy.

In just a few dozen breaths, Chen Feng, relying on his will to survive, rushed to the door of the pharmacy.

Before he could even regain his footing.

"Bang!"

He practically smashed open the half-closed wooden door and rushed inside.

A faint scent of medicine wafted towards him, but he paid it no heed.

A series of dark circles appeared before my eyes, and a sharp pain shot through my chest, almost causing me to collapse to my knees on the spot.

The old director of the pharmacy was startled.

Upon closer inspection, I gasped in shock—

"Sixth Young Master! What happened to you?!"

At this moment, Chen Feng's face was so white it was almost transparent, and all traces of his original healthy rosy complexion were gone.

A fine layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

His cheeks were severely sunken, and his lips had turned a deathly pale color.

He was no longer the dashing man he usually was.

Chen Feng struggled to support his swaying body, one hand bracing against the counter, his knuckles turning white from the effort.

With barely concealed weakness and urgency, he spoke urgently to the pharmacy director:

"Quickly... Qi and Blood Pills... Great Tonic Pills, Yuan-Gathering Powder... the more the better!"

The master craftsman has an incredibly sharp eye.

Chen Feng's symptoms were immediately apparent.

That's too much!

Before Chen Feng could finish speaking, the pharmacy manager had already brought out a series of tonics and stuffed them into Chen Feng's mouth.

While addressing the immediate crisis, it also serves as a reminder:

"No, Sixth Young Master! Eating too much at once will cause serious problems!"

Chen Feng swallowed the pills one by one in a hurry.

The body's vital energy and blood were somewhat replenished.

"Um...no, it's nothing!"

While consuming the pills, Chen Feng was also fully activating the Taiji Xuan Yuan Gong.

As a breathing technique, one that consumes more experience than the Five Elements Fist, the Tai Chi Profound Origin Skill demonstrated its unparalleled effectiveness at this moment—

An incredibly terrifying ability to consume and absorb energy!

Those highly nourishing pills, once they entered Chen Feng's body...

Almost instantly.

It was completely absorbed.

The conversion rate also reached an astonishing 90% or more!

Tiny impurities and toxins are also extracted and excreted from the body through sweat.

Chen Feng felt a surge of heat throughout his body.

A strange scene unfolded inside his body:

Qi and blood are being replenished on one hand, and consumed on the other... the two are locked in a stalemate, pulling each other back and forth.

The pills were consumed one by one.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Feng stopped putting the pills into his mouth.

"Phew~ I survived."

Chen Feng felt a chill of fear. He hadn't expected the Five Elements Fist Technique to be so powerful, almost turning him into a dried-up corpse!

Luckily, I ran fast.

Chen Feng looked up and saw the pharmacy master looking terrified.

We bowed and thanked him.

"Thank you so much, sir. You really saved my life."

The old director breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Feng was alright. In all his years of practicing medicine, this was the first time he had ever seen someone so weak.

It was as if his vital energy had been drained by a female ghost.

If we keep eating, the stock will be gone.

We can't expect the Sixth Young Master to be gnawing on herbs, can we?

An image involuntarily flashed through the old director's mind.

Shaking his head to clear his mind, the old director asked, "Did Sixth Young Master encounter a problem during his training?... Or...?"

"It's a minor issue, no need to mention it."

Chen Feng waved his hand.

His tone was filled with the joy of surviving a disaster and the surprise of his increased strength.

He discovered that all the bone marrow in his body had completed its transformation and was now able to continuously generate blood and qi for him.

His bones began to tremble slightly!

This means that Chen Feng has already stepped into—

Blood Refining Realm, Perfected!

Once he has tempered a bone, he can become a Bone Forging Warrior!

Chen Feng was overjoyed.

Fortune truly lies in danger.

The ancients never lied to me.

"Sixth Young Master, there's something else..."

Chen Feng said nonchalantly:

"I've already digested it all, and the toxins have been eliminated from my body. I'm fine."

After saying that, Chen Feng felt sticky and uncomfortable all over, so he turned around and went back to take a shower.

The pharmacy director stopped him and said tactfully:

"Sixth Young Master, these pills aren't free..."

Chen Feng's smile froze on his face.

broken.

Something really happened.

......

......

The next day, Chen Feng left home early.

Heading towards the inner city.

Changwei Escort Agency stands at the most bustling crossroads in the city.

The high walls, made of blue bricks, are over ten feet tall, with gray tiles covering the roof and slightly upturned eaves. Two life-sized blue stone lions squat on either side of the gate.

A large ebony plaque with gilded decoration hangs above the door.

The four characters "Changwei Escort Agency" are written with a strong and powerful style.

The flag in front of the gate, embroidered with the character "威" (wei, meaning prestige) on crimson silk, fluttered in the wind.

"This is it."

Chen Feng glanced at the imposing gate of the security escort agency and touched the empty money pouch in his pocket.

That huge silver ingot was handed over to the pharmacy.

It turned into a few copper coins...

It's like going back to square one overnight.

Making money is urgent.

Chen Feng noticed a notice posted at the entrance of the escort agency:

"We are recruiting apprentices and bodyguards. Applicants must at least have cultivated their Qi and Blood. After passing the bodyguard agency's assessment, they can participate in free training..."

It seems the security escort agency is also short-staffed.

Chen Feng stepped through the black lacquered copper-ringed gate and came into view a martial arts training ground of about half an acre, paved with flat and solid bluestone.

Rows of wooden stakes stood along the side of the field.

In the center is a makeshift arena.

Two men dressed in shorts were sparring on the stage.

There was also a group of people lined up in a long queue.

It seems they are waiting for an assessment.

As soon as Chen Feng stepped into the martial arts arena, someone came up to him: "Who are you? What brings you here?"

"I am a disciple of the Dragon Martial Arts School and would like to apply for a position as a bodyguard."

Chen Feng cupped his hands in greeting.

The bodyguard who stepped forward to inquire, upon hearing the words "Dragon Martial Arts School," turned around and called over another person:

"Boss, there's a martial arts school here."

Chen Feng looked over.

A tall, middle-aged man in a dark blue short jacket walked over slowly, looked Chen Feng up and down, and said:

"Do you have a disciple's badge?"

"some."

Chen Feng took off the iron plaque hanging from his waist and handed it to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged bodyguard took it and glanced at it.

"The badge is fine. Your name is Chen..."

"......wind?!"

"You're Chen Feng?!"
