Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Pill Devouring, I am the True Path of the Tang Sect

Qin Qi glanced at Gaishi Longshe and felt that getting angry was not a good idea; there was no need to get angry at a little girl.

Moreover, the Dragon Lord even said he would treat everyone to a meal.

Meng Yiran took her throwing knife back from Qin Qi and then returned to her seat to continue eating.

........................

That evening, Qin Qi returned to his room, lay on his bed, and entered his study space.

He told Tang Jiaren about what he had encountered while capturing a spirit beast, and then the two began to study the abilities of the second spirit ring.

The first ability is the honey badger's spirituality.

"It seems like it wasn't an accident last time. Every time I absorb a spirit ring, I seem to absorb the other party's spirituality along with it."

Qin Qi looked at the honey badger he had condensed with Qi poison, and spoke while looking into its lively eyes.

"Hmm, not bad. If it has potential, it's easy to nurture. It will definitely become a good helper for you in the future."

Tang Jiaren reached out and touched the honey badger, but the honey badger didn't react and just lay there on the ground like a deadbeat.

"This guy is too big. He can be a front-line meat shield. He can charge in front, and I can sneak up and assassinate him."

Looking at the honey badger, Qin Qi immediately thought of future tactics and strategies.

After figuring out the first ability, they started researching others and quickly developed the second one.

"The nature of my Qi seems to have changed, becoming more solid, like rubber?"

Qin Qi carefully observed his own Qi and finally discovered that it was not rubber, but a net with layers upon layers of it.

The Qi becomes highly solid and resilient, effectively defending against any attack.

"Why don't you try condensing your Qi?"

Tang Jiaren observed for a while before speaking.

Qin Qi tried it out, and when he contracted his Qi, the nets also began to tighten.

Finally, it shrank to one-tenth of its original volume. Although the volume was smaller, the mass was higher.

“Compressing this Qi is tiring and consumes physical and mental energy.”

Qin Qi then began to share his feelings.

"That is correct. It is correct to expend physical and mental energy to refine one's life by condensing Qi."

"You need to practice more in the future to make your Qi more solid, and then your cultivation of life force will improve."

After listening to Qin Qi's description, Tang Jiaren nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

The second ability not only increases defense, but also assists Qin Qi in his cultivation by compressing his own energy.

Chapter 54 You think you know how to use hidden weapons? You're just assuming!

After figuring out the second ability, they began to explore further.

It took several hours to discover the third ability.

"I think I can control my metabolism now."

After trying it out, Qin Qi discovered that he could increase or decrease his metabolic rate.

When metabolism speeds up, the body begins to heat up, and physical fitness begins to improve.

When metabolism slows down, the body begins to cool down, and the energy consumed decreases significantly.

What is metabolism?

Tang Jiaren was taken aback. He studied traditional Chinese medicine and had no idea what metabolism was.

"How do you explain it... it means being able to quickly absorb and release energy, I guess."

Qin Qi scratched his head in frustration. He realized how little he knew, and he really didn't know how to describe metabolism.

"It means qi transformation and consuming qi, right?"

Tang Jiaren asked.

"Hey, what do you mean by 'Qi transformation' and 'eating Qi', Second Grandfather?"

This time, Qin Qi was dumbfounded, and he asked.

"After eating food, you can quickly absorb its energy and use it to nourish your internal organs."

"To quickly heal physical injuries and increase physical strength."

Tang Jiaren spoke up.

"more or less."

Qin Qi spoke up.

For the rest of the day, Qin Qi and Tang Jiaren studied the ability to control metabolism.

Several conclusions were drawn in the end.

First, a faster metabolism can quickly heal injuries, but it will also accelerate energy consumption.

Secondly, accelerated metabolism can rapidly increase physical fitness and the speed at which soul power can be absorbed from the outside world.

Third, a reduced metabolism can effectively reduce energy consumption.

These are advantages, but there are also disadvantages. If his metabolism is too fast, Qin Qi's body temperature will rise, and he will feel like he has a fever.

Prolonged duration can also have adverse effects on his health.

"I feel that this ability has many more uses."

Qin Qi felt that he could develop even more uses for it; his improvement this time with Soul Hunting was truly significant.

"I've got a lot to learn now."

Qin Qi has many abilities now, but he needs to spend more time practicing to fully utilize them.

....................................

the next morning.

Qin Qi was about to get something to eat and leave, but he had just reached the backyard of the inn.

The next second, several throwing knives flew towards him.

"What's going on? Who attacked me?"

Qin Qi instantly caught the flying knife, then scanned his surroundings before finally fixing his gaze on Meng Yiran in the distance.

"He recognized me? Dragon Lord, is Snake Lady nearby? Should I run away?!"

Qin Qi had prepared for the worst; the peerless dragon and snake were unreasonable, and he had no intention of reasoning with them.

He's planning to just drive away with the civil engineering project.

"Hey, what are you doing blocking my target? It's all your fault I missed!"

Meng Yiran blushed slightly and spoke with an imposing tone.

"Ok?"

Qin Qi looked at the throwing knife in his hand, then looked around and noticed a piece of wood with a red dot drawn on it.

Judging by the distance, it's at least seven or eight steps away.

Did you miss again?

Qin Qi realized that he might have been overthinking things; the other party hadn't attacked him, it seemed they had simply thrown the ball off target.

"I, I didn't miss!"

Meng Yiran stubbornly insisted. From childhood to adulthood, she had always excelled at everything she did.

This made her very concerned about her failures, especially when someone saw her throw off target during training.

Seeing that the person who saw her was a child younger than herself, Meng Yiran felt extremely embarrassed.

"Hey, next time throw closer, practice your accuracy first, then practice your speed, and reduce the number of times you throw."

"You simply can't control throwing so many at once."

Qin Qi looked at Meng Yiran, sighed, walked over, returned the throwing knife to her, and then turned to leave.

Goodbye, no, never again. If I see you again, I'll take a detour, okay?

"You...you stop right there! What did that look you gave me just now mean?!"

"And what do you mean by saying I can't control it? Can you even see how fast I'm moving?"

"Have you ever learned how to throw knives? You don't know anything, yet you're making assumptions and giving opinions. Don't you think that's very rude of you?!"

Seeing Qin Qi's fear of being implicated again, Meng Yiran's pride couldn't take it anymore.

What do you mean by that? Are you saying I'm sure I'll miss? You're looking down on me!

Qin Qi didn't say anything; he quickened his pace, preparing to leave as soon as possible.

"Stop right there!"

Enraged, Meng Yiran threw the throwing knife at Qin Qi, and then, with a thud, it fell to the ground.

The throwing knife hit the bullseye of the target precisely.

"........."

Meng Yiran remained silent.

"........."

On the second floor of the hotel, looking out the window, both Dragon Lord and Snake Granny fell silent. Their granddaughter's throwing knife skills were still lacking.

This is way too far off!

Qin Qi continued walking forward without looking back, but not very fast, as he felt the gaze of the peerless dragon and snake.

"Stop right there! You're not allowed to leave!"

"Did you see that? That move of mine was amazing! I hit the target in one hit!"
