Martial Arts: Starting with Bajiquan, I will prove my divine power through the ultimate path!

Shi Wen wandered around Taiping Alley for a while.

After changing his clothes at the safe house, he rushed home.

He scooped up water from the vat to wash off the sweat, relieving his fatigue, and then practiced a few basic exercises to maintain his daily training.

He ate nearly half a pound of red mango meat and took a packet of blood-strengthening powder.

I just went to sleep feeling groggy.

He also suffered many injuries while fighting against Tong Roushan.

This guy's external martial arts skills had reached an unknown level; he possessed immense strength. After enduring several blows, his body felt like it was being torn apart, and he almost couldn't withstand it.

Fortunately, the "Bajiquan Basic Skills for Beginners" contains the characteristic of "penetrating the opponent's energy," which enabled him to win this battle!

When Shi Wen woke up, it was already afternoon.

The lazy midday sun streamed into the room through the old wooden window.

He opened his sleepy eyes, and a wave of aches and pains washed over him.

Outside the house.

Why didn't those neighbors go to work again?

They were sitting outside chatting loudly, arguing heatedly.

It was as if something had happened.

Shi Wen ignored the controversy outside.

He turned his gaze toward the Extreme Seal.

【Extreme Seal】

[Bajiquan Basic Skills for Beginners: Minor Success (32/100), Characteristic: Penetrating Power]

[Iron Whip Leg: Xiao Cheng (2/80)]

[Iron Claw Kung Fu: Beginner (1/30)]

[Iron Armor Horizontal Training Technique: Not Yet Entered (1/10)]

[Evolutionary Branch 1: Contaminated Lucky Meat (Completed)]

"Did it work?"

Shi Wen was instantly roused!

He quickly got up to find the basket in the corner.

Open the parchment paper.

His expression changed drastically.

Inside the oiled paper, a drop of blood, slightly larger than a sesame seed, shone with a ruby-like brilliance, dazzling and captivating. Upon closer inspection, one could even see that this drop of blood resembled a heart, beating according to a certain rhythm.

It was as if fresh blood had just been released from some ichthyosaur.

Extremely fresh!

"It has no taste."

Shi Wen brought the drop of blood close to his nose and sniffed it, asking curiously, "I wonder what use a drop of precious blood, condensed from 20 pieces of blessed flesh, could have?"

"That little bit last time was completely useless."

He closed the window and swallowed the precious blood in one gulp.

The moment the precious blood entered his mouth, Shi Wen's expression changed slightly.

This time, swallowing the precious blood did not result in any change, unlike the last time.

The moment the precious blood flowed into his throat.

It transformed into a ball of flame, burning fiercely within the five internal organs!

The flame grew hotter and more volatile, surging wildly within his body as if to burn his internal organs to ashes.

A burning and searing pain suddenly erupted.

Shi Wen's face suddenly contorted into a ferocious expression, veins bulging on his forehead and muscles taut all over his body!

As the flames flowed in circles throughout his body.

A fine layer of sweat instantly appeared on Shi Wen's forehead, and his body muscles trembled uncontrollably.

Every internal organ, every bone, every tendon, and every muscle felt a burning sensation!

Suddenly.

The burning sensation was amplified several times over!

He immediately curled up on the ground, his head buzzing, and nearly lost consciousness!

Wait until the pain subsides.

Shi Wen had just regained consciousness; his clothes were soaked with sweat, leaving damp patches on the ground.

"Why does it hurt so much this time!"

Shi Wen gasped.

He slowly stood up from the ground and found that his pores were expelling a lot of yellowish-black impurities, which were very sticky and could be rubbed off like a layer of skin.

After swallowing a sesame seed-sized amount of precious blood,

He suddenly felt very light, as if his body had become lighter.

Radiant with energy.

The tearing pain and muscle soreness from the previous battle with Tong Roushan have vanished without a trace!

"Marrow cleansing and hair-shaving?"

Shi Wen looked on with curiosity.

Legend has it that there is a treasure that can help ordinary people expel impurities and toxins from their bodies and change their physical constitution.

Perhaps precious blood is this kind of treasure that can change one's constitution and cleanse one's marrow!

Shi Wen practiced a few basic moves in the cramped room.

Suddenly, I realized that when I was boxing, my body felt light, my muscles and ligaments became more elastic and resilient, and all my joints became very flexible.

The punches he threw were three times more agile than before!

"My body seems lighter, but I'm a bit heavier, and my muscles are more toned."

Experience the warmth of the stone while strolling.

He looked at his body and found that he did not have any very strong or large muscles.

Even the muscles in training areas, such as the Iron Whip Kick, appear to have shrunk, or rather, become more symmetrical.

"So, it seems like your bones have become heavier?"

"Besides the physical changes, my blood and energy seem to have changed as well?"

Shi Wen closed his eyes and sensed that the blood and qi in his dantian, which was originally the size of a loach, had shrunk several times, but he could clearly feel that it was more solid than before.

And this mass of vital energy...

It feels a bit hot?

Shi Wen extended a finger and pointed to the mud bricks supporting the table.

His blood and qi circulated freely, and his fingers seemed to penetrate deeply into tofu, as if poking into it.

When he pulled it out, there was a deep hole in the mud brick.

"Besides piercing through mud bricks more easily than before, there seems to be something else added?"

Shi Wen quickly picked up the mud brick and examined it closely.

I observed for a long time.

He discovered that the surface of the mud bricks that had been touched by his fingers showed faint traces of being scorched by flames.

This detail is very subtle.

You can't see it at all unless you look closely!

"Could it be that my blood and qi possess that burning characteristic?"

Shi Wen slammed his fist into the mud brick, shattering it into pieces. He quickly picked up the broken pieces and examined them, and sure enough, he saw some burn marks!

This made him gasp in surprise.

He had never heard of anyone who cultivated martial arts and possessed properties similar to burning flames!

"If I were to gather more blessed flesh and evolve it into the blood of the fish-dragon, would the qi and blood within my body transform into a pure, fiery burning sensation? Or even directly become something akin to molten lava?"

"If that's really the case, who can withstand a single punch or palm strike from me?"

Shi Wen was overjoyed and immediately focused his attention on the Extreme Seal.

Upon closer inspection, the differences were indeed discovered.

【Extreme Seal】

[Bajiquan Basic Skills for Beginners: Minor Success (32/100), Characteristic: Penetrating Power]

[Iron Whip Leg: Xiao Cheng (2/80)]

[Iron Claw Kung Fu: Beginner (1/30)]

[Iron Armor Horizontal Training Technique: Not Yet Entered (1/10)]

[True Meaning: Burning (Activated)]

"So the burning sensation caused by excess Qi and blood is called True Intent?"

"Fortunately, I can choose whether to turn it on or not. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome if outsiders found out that my blood and qi are different from theirs."

"We must buy more blessed meat to store, just in case the group that worships the Holy Mother stops distributing meat one day?"

"I wonder how many pieces of blessed flesh would need to evolve to keep this burning true intent burning like molten lava without ever going out?"

Shi Wen tried using mud bricks on the ground.

He discovered that this burning sensation was related to the amount of qi and blood infused into the body.

When he unleashes his qi and blood all at once, he can leave scorching marks on the surface of mud bricks!

However, once you activate your true intention, your Qi and blood will be consumed very quickly.

"If the Lucky Meat evolves the other two branches, what benefits will it bring?"

A look of interest appeared on Shi Wen's face.

Hellish Demon Skull Black Calamity Dragon Fish Meat!

Crimson Stream Demon Flame Disaster Fire Dragon Fish Meat!

Although the Extreme Seal does not provide a detailed description of these two branches, it does not explain what changes will occur after ingestion.

But judging from the name...

It is clear that the two are completely different from the Fish-Dragon Blood.

"It's just a pity that it took too long."

Shi Wen thought about it and couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

100 years, how long is that?

"If there were something that could shorten the evolution time of the Extreme Seal, that would be great."

Shi Wen sighed softly.

He got up to wash up, changed into a worn-out outfit, and went to the boxing academy to practice.

When Shi Wen appeared at the boxing academy.

Many disciples from the outer academy saw him and couldn't help but laugh, pointing and whispering among themselves. Some even showed disdain when they got excited.

This kid has been studying and practicing so diligently all this time!

Everyone present saw it.

They are almost always the first to arrive and the last to leave, and they don't even get much rest at noon.

I've been practicing boxing all along.

She also seems to have a very good relationship with Senior Sister Li from the Inner Court.

This had long left many disciples in the outer academy feeling uneasy.

What are you pretending for?

So you can show off your abilities?

Do you really think that the so-called "heaven rewards diligence" can temper your blood and qi?

I thought you could keep up the act for a long time.

I didn't expect you to only last about ten days.

They've shown their true colors!

Why are you only starting to practice at this hour?

School will be over in a little over an hour, what are you doing here?

Haha, as expected, it was all an act. It couldn't last long at all; it was exposed in less than half a month.

I'm afraid that in a few more days, no one will come.

Utterly ridiculous...
