A Blood-Moving Realm has arrived in the world of The Return of the Condor Heroes.

"Basic procedures, don't overdo it."

"Um?"

Oh well, Brother Huai always says things that others can't understand, he's used to it.

Yang Guo thought to himself.

The three continued walking towards the stone chamber where the ice bed was located.

Along the way, Zhang Huai looked around like a curious child.

"There are so many coffins here. No wonder it's called the Tomb of the Living Dead."

"Brother Huai, come here quickly, that's the cenotaph of the Ancestral Master."

Zhang Huai was startled and quickly bowed to the coffin, apologizing repeatedly while silently saying, "No offense intended, please forgive me."

"Brother Zhang, don't touch these coffins. Many of them have hidden mechanisms."

Little Dragon Girl couldn't help but speak up to remind her.

Zhang Huai immediately moved far away from the coffins; he didn't want to die here for no reason.

Soon the three of them arrived at a stone chamber.

This stone chamber is larger than any other stone chamber along the way.

Like other stone chambers, this one is decorated with moonlit pearls all around, emitting a faint glow that illuminates the entire chamber.

There are niches hanging on the stone wall, inside which are some yellowed books.

In the very center of the stone chamber, there was a huge stone bed that exuded a chilling aura.

The stone bed is made entirely of a single piece of cold jade, with a bright green color and a warm, lustrous sheen.

Zhang Huai walked over curiously and carefully touched the cold jade bed. Its coldness was not like that of ice, which would make people shiver.

It was a cool sensation that even those who circulated their qi and blood could not resist, and it pierced straight to the bone marrow.

This coolness entering the body doesn't make one feel cold, but rather makes one's mind clear and spirits up.

Zhang Huai sat on the ice bed and felt his muscles come alive.

The soreness and swelling I felt when I tried to lift the broken dragon stone is gradually subsiding.

Zhang Huai eagerly examined the cold jade bed, trying to figure out what material it was made of.

But after looking at it for a long time, with his limited knowledge, he still couldn't find a corresponding thing in his mind.

Seeing Zhang Huai's keen interest in the jade bed, Yang Guo stepped forward and began to introduce it to him, saying:

"Brother Huai, this is the Cold Jade Bed, a treasure of our Ancient Tomb Sect. This bed was made by our ancestor, Granny, from ten-thousand-year-old ice in the frigid north. When you practice your skills on it, your internal energy will circulate several times faster than usual. You must endure the biting cold, and only those with a strong will can endure it for long."

Zhang Huai nodded knowingly; he was aware of this.

Little Dragon Girl also walked to the side of the Jade Bed, gently stroking it with her hand, and whispered softly:

"Guo'er and I have been cultivating on this bed since childhood and are already used to it. Brother, your divine power is fierce and your blood is surging. This cold jade energy can just help to calm the wild energy in your body and temper your physical foundation."

As she spoke, Xiaolongnu's eyes went unfocused, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips, as if she were lost in beautiful memories.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Huai was overjoyed, for it truly had such a wonderful use.

Methods of body tempering are already rare, and this Cold Jade Bed can temper one's foundation, which is simply perfect.

He raised his hands in a fist salute and said, "Thank you for your guidance, sister-in-law. Since that's the case, I'll take this opportunity to practice as well."

Yang Guo nodded and said, "Aunt and I can meditate by the bedside. Brother Huai, you can cultivate on your own. If you can't withstand the cold air entering your body, get down immediately. Don't force yourself."

After saying this, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu exchanged a glance and sat cross-legged on the left side of the cold jade bed.

The two sat back to back, their clothes touching, each forming the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra mudra with their hands, silently practicing health-preserving exercises.

White internal energy slowly rose from their bodies, their auras merging to form a perfect cycle.

The ancient tomb was already silent, and now only the steady breathing of the three people could be heard.

The soft light of the luminous pearl bathed the two of them, their white robes as white as snow, their figures leaning against each other, like a perfect couple, blending into the cold stone chamber.

Zhang Huai took a deep breath, stopped looking, and sat down on the right side of the cold jade bed.

As soon as he sat down, that bone-chilling coolness swept over his entire body again, colliding with the surging energy within him.

The originally restless blood and qi were forced to circulate unconsciously according to the rudimentary method by the cold air.

Zhang Huai dared not be careless. He closed his eyes tightly and focused all his energy on circulating his internal energy.

With each flow of Qi and blood, the coldness of the Jade Bed penetrates deeper, eliminating and suppressing impurities and restlessness within the Qi and blood.

The soreness and swelling throughout his body were relieved, and the bulging veins on his arms gradually shrank.

Qi and blood surge like rivers, while cold qi is as fine as ice silk, constantly permeating, balancing, and nourishing each other.

Zhang Huai felt power continuously accumulating within his body, and he felt his body becoming increasingly solid and heavy.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Huai felt a lightness throughout his body, and the flow of his internal energy and blood became smoother, without any of the previous blockages. The cold air also became warm and smooth like jade.

He slowly opened his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them.

After a few simple stretches, my bones cracked and popped, and I felt like I had inexhaustible energy.

He felt that if he were to try challenging the Dragon-Slaying Stone again now, he believed he could lift it up even further.

He looked down at his hands and saw a faint shimmering light beneath his skin, which had become smoother and was no longer as rough as before.

The muscle definition is relatively more subdued, but powerful explosiveness is hidden beneath the muscles.

Beside the bed, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu kept their eyes closed, the white mist around them growing thicker, their auras merging more closely.

Clearly, this is a crucial moment in their cultivation.

Zhang Huai didn't disturb the two of them, but simply sat cross-legged to the side, constantly adjusting his internal energy.

After a moment, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu simultaneously exhaled a breath of stale air.

The two exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with the joy of their progress.

"really,"

Yang Guo said happily,

"This health-preserving and guiding technique, combined with the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra and this Cold Jade Ice Bed, is like a divine gift, and one's cultivation can be said to have soared to new heights."

"Auntie, how are you feeling?"

Xiaolongnu simply nodded and said, "Not only has my internal energy cultivation speed increased, but my injuries have also almost healed."

After saying that, she lifted her gauze robe, revealing that the scabs on her fair arms had all fallen off naturally, and the parts that had not scabbed over were now only a faint red, with the wounds almost completely healed.

"Judging from this, by using the health-preserving guidance technique, combined with this cold jade ice bed and Brother Huai's blood, even if a person is left with only one breath, we can pull them back from the brink of death."

Composing himself, Yang Guo turned to look at Zhang Huai, who was already sitting cross-legged to the side.

"Brother Huai, how are you feeling? Are you disappointed?"

Zhang Huai clenched his fist, feeling the immense power, without experiencing any muscle soreness.

He laughed heartily, "Not only was I not disappointed, it was an incredible surprise! If I overexert myself in the future, this Jade Ice Bed can help alleviate the discomfort."

Having spent these days together, Xiaolongnu had also learned some social skills. She flattered him, saying, "Brother Zhang is born with superhuman strength, and with this ice bed to help him, his cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds in the future."
