Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 464 - 105: Inner Breath Surges, Trouble at the City Gate!

Chapter 464: Chapter 105: Inner Breath Surges, Trouble at the City Gate!

In the blink of an eye.

The end of the year was approaching.

Despite the cold weather, Luoshui County was lively.

The streets and alleyways were still filled with the laughter of children.

The entire county town was adorned with red lanterns.

East Courtyard.

"Whoosh—"

Jiang Ning let out a long breath, his breath forming a cloud like a sword, slicing the air a considerable distance. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Then he walked over to the stone table under the pavilion and poured himself a cup of lukewarm tea.

Gulp—

Gulp—

Two big gulps and the bowl was seen empty.

He then glanced at the figure busily hustling in the courtyard.

At this moment, Lv Yi was moving a wooden ladder, stepping on it and stretching on tiptoes to hang red lanterns on the tree.

These lanterns were purchased by her and her sister-in-law, Liuu Wanwan, at the market earlier that morning.

They began decorating the courtyard in the afternoon.

Because tomorrow was the New Year’s Eve, the festive night for family reunions.

Seeing half of the courtyard already hung with little red lanterns, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but feel moved.

The New Year’s atmosphere here was very similar to the New Year celebrations in his previous life.

This stirred some emotions in him, bringing a faint sense of homesickness.

He reflected for a few moments.

He shook his head and gave a wry smile.

Then, he put down the tea bowl he was holding.

"Continue training in Boxing and bone refining, and quickly complete the Jade Bone forging. The stronger my strength, the better I can handle any emergencies," he decided.

At that moment, he remembered something that had happened a few days ago.

When two Fifth Grade strong people from the God Worship Sect had come to kill him together.

Had he not been vigilant every day, and had his strength not grown strong enough,

If he had ever been negligent and his strength insufficient, it would have been a life and death crisis.

From this, he understood a truth even better—strength was the foundation for handling everything.

As long as one’s strength was strong enough, those troubles were not really troubles.

Just like some past troubles, as his strength grew, they naturally resolved themselves without him using any effort.

Like the conflict with Medicine King Valley, if he had not performed impressively enough to make Valley Master Lu Qingshan take notice, how could he have moved past those events so easily.

As for the feud with the Cao family, as his strength grew, solving it became much simpler.

Reviewing all these past events, Jiang Ning was even more firm in his thoughts.

Enhancing one’s own strength was truly the fundamental way to establish oneself.

Afterwards,

he rested for a moment.

Then he glanced at his status panel again.

[Skill]: Five Animals Fist (three Break Limits 663/4000) (Traits: Five Internal Organs Store Essence, Five Elements Spirit, Master of Fist Skill)

These past few days, his experience value in Five Animals Fist had increased by over six hundred points.

As for the bones in his body, they were gradually becoming Jade Bones, and everything was developing in a positive direction.

Moreover, Lv Yi had been making rapid progress in learning Five Animals Fist these past days.

In just a few days, the Qi-Blood Power in her body had reached a level that connected through both arms.

This let Jiang Ning understand that his blood was indeed a treasure to others.

The only harmful aspect was that after absorbing his blood, one became his Favored, somewhat under his control.

But, while harmful to others,

it was an extremely useful tool for him.

As the saying goes, know the face but not the heart.

With this tool, when necessary, he could cultivate trustworthy talents, just like the current Lv Yi.

Thinking of this,

"Little Lv!" he immediately called out.

"Young Master, did you call for me?" Lv Yi stood on the ladder on her tiptoes, turning her head to look at Jiang Ning.

Seeing this, Jiang Ning smiled, "After hanging the lanterns, come and get your feeding from me."

"Yes!" Lv Yi’s eyes lit up instantly.

Through Jiang Ning’s trials, she had also come to know that her changes benefitted from her Young Master’s blood.

Her progress in Martial Arts was rapid, which was also related to her Young Master’s blood.

Afterwards,

Jiang Ning began to practice his Boxing and continued to mobilize the Qi-Blood Power in his body to refine his bones.

...

The next day.

The eve was near.

"Finally, the sky has cleared!"

Looking at a small hole slowly opening in the clouds in the eastern sky, with golden light shining on distant mountain peaks, Jiang Ning was filled with emotions.

Clear days had been rare all winter.

This had severely hindered his progress in the Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill.

If everything had gone as planned, he would have reached, if not the stage of Condensed into Gang in his Inner Breath,

at least something close.

Now, according to the efficiency of his Breathing and Releasing the Essence of the Great Sun, he still needed thirty to forty days.

[Skill]: Inner Elixir Cultivation (small success 1277/5000)

Looking at his status panel, Jiang Ning was filled with anticipation for the upcoming clear weather.

Having practiced the Five Animals Fist for so long, he had induced the Five Elements Spirit into his body and had already accumulated a lot of Five Elements Spirit in his internal organs.

These reserves of Five Elements Spirit had also been nurturing his internal organs, making them much stronger.

However, as he had not yet refined them with the Inner Strength Method, the reserves continued to increase.

"Later, when I breathe and absorb the Great Sun’s Essence Qi to refine the Five Elements Spirit of my internal organs, my Inner Breath will inevitably surge, and my Inner Elixir Cultivation will make great progress."

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning was full of anticipation.

Martial Arts Fifth Grade, Inner Strength in the five organs, the biggest change was mastering Inner Breath.

The so-called Peak of Fifth Grade, One Breath to Slash Thousands of Army,

was the terrifying effect when Inner Breath was extremely powerful.

...

In the blink of an eye,

Just after 9:00 a.m., 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. had already arrived.

Jiang Ning also felt the warmth of the Great Sun above his head, freely spreading light and heat.

He could feel his hair already heated by the sun.

At this moment, he sat cross-legged on a mat earlier prepared by Lv Yi, assuming the Five Hearts Facing Heaven posture.
