Chapter 52: Aftermath
In the secret chamber, Li Yuan temporarily put aside distractions and focused on morizing the "Eighth Grade Blood Regulation" thod from "Soul-Throwing Technique."
This thod is an internal manipulation that doesn’t show externally. However, accumulating qi and blood still requires the cultivation posture from the "Ninth Grade" level. Thus, in the maidservants’ eyes, he appeared to be arduously practicing the Ninth Grade level of "Soul-Throwing Technique."
A few days ago, when he was with Yu Mao, he casually asked about how long it would take to break through to the Eighth Grade.
Yu Mao said that with a cultivation skill, resources, and talent, reaching the Ninth Grade takes about over a year. Among these, the most crucial is talent. Many people, no matter how hard they try in their lifeti, cannot cultivate into the Ninth Grade. As for what talent is, it’s hard to say. One can only say that those with talent are more likely to develop Shadow Blood.
However, to enter the Eighth Grade, it takes at least two to three months, and it takes over three years to truly achieve it.
This aligns with the mories obtained in Li Yuan’s mind and what he heard from Xi Yan that day, "To train with Puppets, you need to at least enter the Eighth Grade, which will be three to four years later."
In other words, within a year, if he couldn’t break through the Ninth Grade of "Soul-Throwing Technique," it would be reasonable. On the contrary, if he broke through early, that would be a genius; if he broke through now... it would be a disaster.
But no matter what, before the breakthrough, he was still at the Ninth Grade, so using the Ninth Grade power wouldn’t be contradictory.
After practicing in the secret chamber for a while, Li Yuan continued to the martial arts platform to grind the Shadow Blood using the Ninth Grade thod.
Ti flew by...
Unconsciously, he was drenched in sweat again.
As usual, Xi Yan brought in a bathtub, undressed the boy, and accompanied him for a bath, wiping him with dicinal packs.
During this process, Li Yuan’s spirit was quickly recovering.
He let this enchanting woman serve him, cleaning his body and relieving his fatigue.
anwhile, he was pondering over the matter of demon beast at.
First is money, second is how to purchase it in the black market...
...
A mont later.
Li Yuan, wearing a clean Profound Robe, arrived at the north gate of the black market.
He respectfully put down the cultivation skill and said, "Teacher, I want to go to Xiao Mo Mountain to train for a few days."
Master Li squinted his eyes slightly, swaying with the rocking chair, and after a while, said, "You were originally a hunter from Little Ink Workshop, going to Xiao Mo Mountain to train is fine... but I still want to remind you of one thing."
"Please, go ahead."
Master Li said hoarsely, "In this world, in the vast mountains and seas, in places sparsely populated, avoid going deep..."
Li Yuan felt a pull at his heart, and out of curiosity, he asked, "Is there danger?"
Master Li said, "This is the warning left by my master, your grandmaster."
Li Yuan asked, "Even you, teacher... do you need to follow it?"
Master Li nodded.
Li Yuan shivered internally, and said in a trembling voice, "Could it be that there really are... ghosts in the world?
In the neighborhoods, there are often strange talks about ghosts, are these... true?"
Master Li strangely neither confird nor denied, and after a long ti, said, "Maybe there are, maybe there aren’t. But those who have seen them have already disappeared, so how would you know... if there are or aren’t."
Li Yuan’s Adam’s apple moved, and it was only at this mont he realized that the last ti he managed to escape, it was almost an act of defiance against fate.
It was a sure-death scenario...
The danger of these deep mountains and ancient forests instantly climbed to the highest level in his heart.
However, what’s more frightening is that this terror might... be slowly approaching.
Maybe... it has already appeared on this island of the black market.
He said, "I will heed the warning of my grandmaster."
"You may go."
"Student takes his leave."
Li Yuan took a few steps, and another voice ca from behind.
"The spot for Inner Sect Disciple of Blood Saber Sect has already been secured for you, but the identity token still needs so ti..."
"Thank you, teacher."
Li Yuan turned back respectfully, wanting to ask, "Could the disappearances on this island also be related to those unverifiable ghosts
