Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

"This matter is now closed."

After receiving a signal from Gao Wu, Lin Jiayi said to Lao Qiang, "Go back and make it clear to Jin Daya that this time it was only because we are from the same clan. There will be no next time."

"Yes, yes." Old Gun was so frightened by Gao Wu's sword intent that he almost lost his courage and already regretted stepping in as a peacemaker.

Hearing Lin Jiayi say this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. This matter was actually resolved just like that!

He readily agreed, his posture very humble.

After dismissing Lao Qiang, Lin Jiayi went to the small river behind the mountain and found Gao Wu.

Gao Wu sat under a tree by the river, his Qing Shuang sword resting on his lap, leisurely watching the rushing water.

Lin Jiayi asked, puzzled, "Is that all?"

Based on her understanding of Gao Wu, he was not a magnanimous person. If he didn't fight, fine; but if he did, he would kill.

Jin Daya went too far this time, essentially selling them all out to the Black Lotus Society.

If Gao Wu loses to Weichai, they will all die.

In other words, this is a matter of life and death. For Gao Wu to just let it go like this is really unlike him.

"Otherwise what?" Gao Wu retorted.

Lin Jiayi paused, then said after a moment of silence, "I thought you were going to kill Jin Daya."

"Yes."

Gao Wu said, "I've thought about it, but it seems a bit far, so I'll pass."

"Ok?"

Lin Jiayi looked puzzled. Jiulin Township is very remote, but that's only in comparison to other districts.

The actual distance from Jiulin to Jin Daya's Huangtang District is only about 30 kilometers. With Gao Wu's martial arts skills, it would only take him a little over an hour to walk there.

Gao Wu didn't want to talk about these things anymore. Jin Daya deserved to die for doing such a thing, but he really had no interest in going that far for a guy. It was that simple.

If Wichai hadn't come to him, he wouldn't have bothered with him at all.

The Azure Frost Sword felt comfortable in his hand; that made it a good sword. With this sword in hand, he could save a lot of time in his cultivation.

He said to Lin Jiayi, "You have just condensed your Qi Sea and need time to nourish your Qi. Try not to use violence during this period."

"You and Uncle He can split that gold in half."

Lin Jiayi hurriedly waved her hand: "This is gold for you, how can we take it?"

"Food, drink, and daily necessities all cost money. Spiritual practice costs even more money."

Gao Wu said slowly, "No need to be polite."

He thought for a moment and then said, "House prices are cheap now, so you can buy more properties. They appreciate in value faster than gold."

Nangang is now economically prosperous with a large population, and the average price of housing has reached 400 yuan per square meter.

For ordinary people with a monthly income of one or two hundred yuan, the price is already very high.

Based on past experience, as long as Nangang continues to develop, property prices are bound to skyrocket. Nothing is more worthwhile than buying property.

Lin Jiayi looked bewildered; how did the conversation suddenly turn to buying a house...?

She really couldn't understand Gao Wu's thought process; she even suspected that Gao Wu was doing it on purpose.

The mind is unknowable, therefore its power is unfathomable!
Gao Wu acted this way on purpose, making it impossible for anyone to guess his true thoughts. This, in turn, aroused even greater awe in others.

This trick really works. She can't figure it out, she really can't figure it out!
Gao Wu noticed the flicker in Lin Jiayi's eyes and knew she was overthinking things again. He was only trying to be helpful by reminding her to grasp the secret to getting rich.

The true incineration technique!

Whether Lin Jiayi can understand or not is her own business.

He slowly closed his eyes, his inner energy flowing within the Azure Frost Sword. This sword was like his other hand.

As he circulated his true energy, he gradually became familiar with the various properties of the sword, and the sword also established a resonance and connection with his true energy.

When true qi resonates with the sword, it can stimulate pure sword qi to flow throughout the body, tempering bones and muscles.

To condense the essence sea, one must first reach a certain level of physical strength in order to gather powerful qi and blood into a stable essence sea.

In other words, the Sea of ​​Essence is not just about cultivating true qi, but more importantly, about having a strong physical foundation.

If one cannot condense the essence sea when young, and one's qi and blood gradually decline after the age of thirty, it will be absolutely impossible to condense the essence sea again.

The Iron Crane Sect's method of condensing the essence sea is found within the Twelve Forms of the Snake and Crane, which also emphasizes the continuous strengthening of the body.

This step is extremely demanding on physical talent. If one's innate foundation is slightly weak, no matter how much training one undergoes, it will be impossible to condense the Sea of ​​Essence.

The young man possessed by Gao Wu had decent physical strength, but he wasn't exactly top-tier.

Normally, it's impossible to condense a sea of ​​essence in this lifetime.

Fortunately, he brought with him the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra, which was enough to reshape the body's innate foundation.

In his battle with Weichai, Gao Wu thoroughly understood the opponent's method of tempering his bones and muscles. Now, he doesn't even need to get up to practice his swordplay; he can temper his body both internally and externally through the vibrations of sword energy, and he can also use sword energy to temper the Azure Frost Sword.

Although Lin Jiayi didn't know what Gao Wu was doing, she could vaguely sense his muscles pulsating slightly. She had never seen such a cultivation method before. However, since Gao Wu was sitting there in meditation, she didn't press him for details.

It wasn't until it was almost dark that Gao Wu opened his eyes and saw Lin Jiayi standing beside him.

Lin Jiayi finally waited until Gao Wu woke up, and she hurriedly asked, "What kind of cultivation method is this?"

She was obsessed with martial arts and aspired to become a martial arts master to avenge her father.

Having witnessed Gao Wu's wondrous cultivation method, she waited by his side until he woke up.

"It is the change of Zonghe's explosive power, which integrates true qi to induce the orderly explosive movement of the whole body's muscles and bones, which is ten times more efficient than practicing swordsmanship to stretch muscles and bones."

Gao Wu said, "You are skilled in the method of the Crane Sect, so you can try to cultivate it. With your talent and aptitude, you still have a chance to condense your Sea of ​​Essence."

He then explained the specific methods for circulating internal energy. This was extremely complex and could not be explained clearly in words alone.

Gao Wu didn't hold back at all, and began to point out various parts of Lin Jiayi's body, guiding her true energy through his own.

It was the hottest time of the year in Nangang, and Lin Jiayi was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and shorts, revealing her long, tanned legs.

Her figure is much better than her sister's. Martial arts training has given her broad, rounded shoulders, beautiful abs, and even more beautiful muscle lines on her thighs.

Although Lin Jiayi was involved in a gang, she focused on practicing martial arts. Her smoking and drinking were just to show off her boss-like demeanor, and she was very careful about her personal life.

Even with his bold and unrestrained nature, he still felt somewhat uncomfortable being instructed by Gao Wu on various parts of his body.

Fortunately, Gao Wu's input of true energy was like a series of small, swimming snakes, constantly guiding her true energy to vibrate and tremble, which allowed her to quickly get into the state.

Gao Wu gave her some pointers, and looking at Lin Jiayi again, he found her quite pleasing to the eye, and her touch was also nice... but that was all.

He wasn't pretending to be serious; he simply had a strong will and didn't reject these things, but he also wouldn't become obsessed with them.

In the following days, with money in hand, Uncle He became even more generous in his shopping, buying high-quality beef, fish, shrimp, and a large quantity of medicinal herbs.

These prescriptions are all exclusive to Tiehemen. While they may not be particularly miraculous, they do indeed have excellent nourishing effects on the human body.

Over the course of more than ten days, Gao Wu grew three centimeters taller and gained about ten kilograms of muscle.

The method of using true qi vibrations allowed him to increase the efficiency of tempering his body by dozens of times. Furthermore, the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra continuously provided pure primordial vitality, resulting in such a heaven-defying effect.

On the fifteenth day, Gao Wu suddenly felt a jolt in his chest while entering meditation, and endless qi and blood gathered into a sea, thus refining the Sea of ​​Essence.

Once the Sea of ​​Essence is formed, one can transform true qi into blood and qi, which in turn continuously strengthens the body. At the same time, it also triples the level of his true qi circulation.

Gao Wu circulated his true energy according to the Twelve Forms of the Snake and Crane, and felt his true energy surging like a mighty river, and his blood and qi were surging vigorously, as if he had inexhaustible strength.

He stepped into the stream with his sword in hand, and with the slight buoyancy of the current, he stood steadily on the water.

With each step he took, the water rippled, his feet sinking an inch into the water, with the insteps still sticking out.

Lin Jiayi was practicing her swordplay nearby when she saw Gao Wu enter the water. She was surprised. Although the river was shallow, it was still half a meter deep. How could Gao Wu not sink while standing on it?

She watched Gao Wu swim upstream, drifting away like an immortal... She felt both envious and awestruck.

It's certain that Gao Wu has condensed his essence sea. But why is he so special?

To walk on water while controlling one's inner energy consumes a large amount of it. Even martial arts masters cannot sustain this for long.

In martial arts, there is a technique called "dragonfly skimming the water," which means that to perform this water-walking technique, one must be fast and quick in order to maintain the flow of true qi.

She had never heard of anyone walking slowly on water like Gao Wu, as if he were an immortal riding the wind.

Gao Wu followed the stream upstream until he reached its source, a small cave that must have been connected to an underground river, hence the continuous flow of water.

Just like his true energy, although his essence sea and qi sea are limited, he can continuously transform it with the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra to reach the current state of almost inexhaustible source.

With a thought, Gao Wu's body suddenly soared into the air, rising more than seven meters. He remained motionless, relying entirely on his true energy to surge like invisible crane wings, carrying him into the sky.

The person took eight steps in mid-air, forming a perfect circle. However, the true energy could not support the body in the end, and after returning to the position, it slowly fell down, floating on the river like a fallen leaf.

Although this level of martial prowess wasn't much, the obvious progress still brought Gao Wu a faint sense of joy.

The size of an achievement doesn't matter; what matters is its positive and uplifting nature, which brings joy.

Gao Wusheng realized that if he wanted to condense his divine sea, he still needed to gather a powerful martial arts divine will into shape to control his true qi body.

He has always practiced various martial arts without any particular preference.

In this realm, it's not actually difficult to condense a divine sea. However, with the Azure Frost Sword, he can take the path of proving the Dao through the sword, a shortcut.

Back home, Gao Wu ate a big meal.

That evening, Lin Jiayi found Gao Wu and asked him if he had condensed his essence sea.

Gao Wu didn't hide anything, which pleased Lin Jiayi greatly. Gao Wu hadn't even condensed his spiritual sea yet, and he was still able to kill Wei Cai.

Now that his spiritual energy has been fully developed, even the likes of Basong are no match for him. Now, apart from the Heavenly King, there is nothing left to fear.

Lin Jiayi immediately shared the good news with Lin Feihe. Lin Feihe was overjoyed; he limped around the yard for almost half an hour before finally going to find Gao Wu.

He said solemnly, "You've only just become a Sea Spirit, you still need to conserve your energy. Wait another year or two, and you'll be able to avenge your master!"

Gao Wu glanced at the full moon outside the window, then patted the Azure Frost Sword beside him and said calmly, "Why bother? The moonlight is perfect tonight. I'll go get Gui Longji and the others' heads and use them as a blood sacrifice for my master..." (End of Chapter)
