[Equipable Item: Crimson Blood Spirit Mushroom]

[Rank: Fourth Grade]

【Equipment Effect: ① Replenish Qi and Strengthen Blood (Blue): Greatly increases the circulation speed of Qi and Blood and True Qi, and greatly increases the recovery speed of Qi and Blood and True Qi.

② Meridian Opening and Purification (Blue): When breaking through to the Meridian Opening Realm, consuming this item will immediately open a major meridian. If not during a breakthrough, and the cultivation has already reached the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, it can further purify the true qi in the dantian to a mid-grade level.

[Permanent fixation conditions: Equip this item for 100 days, or slay any fourth-tier or higher-grade monster while equipping this item.]

.........

He had previously seen the effects of replenishing qi and strengthening blood in a top-grade medicine—a century-old ginseng.

However, those are white entries, and their effect is far inferior to this one.

But what truly surprised him was the second term – Tuomai purification!

Although he was only at the Qi Condensation Realm, he had heard about the difficulty of breaking through from the Qi Condensation Realm to the Meridian Opening Realm.

The connection of the first major vein, in particular, is extremely difficult.

Many people get stuck at the Qi Condensation stage because they are stuck on this crucial first step.

According to Dai Wang, the head of the county police station was stuck at this step when he was young, and was unable to fully grasp the essentials.

As a result, at this age, his physical strength and vitality have begun to decline, and he will never be able to make any progress in his life.

If the head constable had had a Crimson Blood Ganoderma back then, he might be a contender for the position of chief constable now.

Of course, Mu Yang wasn't really concerned about this effect.

After all, given his physical strength and the effectiveness of his equipment slots, opening up his major meridians was simply a matter of equipping him with a meridian-opening martial arts manual.

What truly surprised him was the subsequent effect—purification!

This allows martial artists in the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm to purify the low-grade true qi in their dantian to the middle grade.

Although he had already completed the transformation of his true nature, he didn't need this effect.

But what if this effect were to go even further?

Does that mean that it's possible to purify mid-grade true qi into high-grade true qi?

Judging from the sheer size of his major work, "The Method of Constructing the Vast Great Dantian".

Five thousand strands of top-grade true qi mean that he can unleash a staggering 200 million jin of power at his peak.

It should be noted that even if an ordinary martial artist in the Meridian Opening Realm opens twelve major meridians, their strength will only increase by 600,000 jin.

Even when breaking through to the Meridian Opening Realm, the dantian will double in size, able to hold two thousand strands of true qi. The increase in true qi for ordinary martial artists is only 20 jin.

In total, it amounts to less than a million catties of force.

Not even half of his.

"We must strengthen this entry."

Mu Yang made up his mind.

Even if the enhanced version's effect is unsatisfactory, he can still save it for when he's preparing to break through to the Meridian Opening Realm, so it's not a loss at all.

However, strengthening the Crimson Blood Ganoderma requires three Tier 4 items, all of which have blue attributes.

These are hard to find, so we can only do a round of enhancements first and manually gather them together.

The three-part dantian construction method must not be changed; it is the foundation for increasing his strength.

Those eight martial arts manuals are also treasures to enrich his combat power, and there is absolutely no need to use them as enhancement materials unless absolutely necessary.

The precious medicine in the wooden box that Zhu Yong and Zhou De sent was indeed good.

That was a 300-year-old, fourth-grade precious medicinal herb, Purple Black Vine.

It has a white-quality antidote attribute and a white-quality blood-enhancing attribute.

The effect was neither good nor bad, but it was somewhat of a waste for him.

After all, his solidified detoxification pills also have detoxification effects and similar effects, or even better ones.

Besides this purple vine, the two bottles of fourth-tier pills can be used as enhancement materials.

One bottle contains healing pills, and the other contains aphrodisiac pills; both have white entries.

The former, which Mu Yang had equipped, slightly improved the injury recovery effect, while the latter slightly increased the "battle" duration.

For Mu Yang, it was equally useless.

Besides these, Su Hai also kept the blood-tonifying and kidney-tonifying pills in his sleeve as backup options.

Ke You's small bottle of "Deadwood Venom" is also ranked fourth and can be used as an enhancement material.

Mu Yang laid them out one by one.

There are eleven items in total.

"That's enough!"

Mu Yang took a deep breath and placed the Purple Vine, Pill, and Deadwood Venom into the enhancement slot in that order.

Before long, three items were enhanced to +1.

Healing Pill +1, Aphrodisiac Pill +1, Deadwood Venom +1.

These three items, which he chose as the main targets for enhancement, each had only one attribute, so naturally there would be no "accidents" outside of the enhancement process.

"Then, the next step is to strengthen the Crimson Blood Spirit Mushroom!"

Mu Yang placed the three +1 enhancement items into the enhancement material slots, and then placed the Crimson Blood Ganoderma into the enhancement main slot.

"I hope it works on the first try, and please don't go astray!" Mu Yang prayed silently.

.........

[Ding! Detected that the main body's tier is four, with a minimum affix quality of blue; the material's tier is four, with a minimum affix quality of blue. The enhancement conditions are met. The quality of any affix on the main body will be increased!]

.........

[Ding! The main item - Crimson Blood Spirit Mushroom - has been enhanced, and its attribute quality has been improved!]

【Pulse Refinement (Blue) → Pulse Refinement (Purple)】

.........

Become!

Mu Yang was overjoyed and immediately looked at the enhanced Crimson Blood Spirit Mushroom.

[Equipable Item: Crimson Blood Spirit Mushroom +1]

[Rank: Fourth Grade]

【Equipment Effect: ① Replenishes Qi and Strengthens Blood (Blue):............

② Meridian Expansion and Purification (Purple): Upon breaking through to the Meridian Opening Realm, one can immediately open three major meridians. If not during a breakthrough, and one's cultivation has already reached the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, the mid-grade true qi in the dantian can be further purified to high-grade.

[Permanent curing conditions:.........]

.........

Mu Yang completely ignored the statement about connecting three major meridians at once.

His attention was completely drawn to the last sentence.

"It can further purify the mid-grade true qi in the dantian to the high-grade..."

"You bet right!"

Mu Yang was overjoyed and immediately took out the Crimson Blood Spirit Mushroom, which had been enhanced by one level.

The Crimson Blood Ganoderma was originally only the size of a palm and was dark red in color. Now, its size remains the same, but its color has become a bright, fiery red.

The patterns on the umbrella-shaped canopy resemble the patterns left by dried lava, layer upon layer, like fiery clouds on the horizon, a breathtaking sight.

Okay, Mu Yang admits he's become a bit biased towards the house because of it.

Actually, this thing doesn't look very appealing; it looks similar to an enlarged cashew nut.

Mu Yang put the Crimson Blood Ganoderma lucidum +1 into his sleeve pocket.

After calming his excitement slightly, he took out the book "The Method of Constructing the Dantian with Strong Wind" from his sleeve pocket.

The Ganoderma lucidum is ready; the next step is to break through to the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm!

"Equip the 'Powerful Qi Tank Construction Method'!"
