The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

As time slowly passed, Li Qing finally completely devoured the body of this fifth-stage mid-stage blood demon.

During this process, he could clearly feel the tremendous vitality contained in the essence of flesh and blood, flowing into his limbs like a trickle, bringing an unprecedented sense of comfort.

As his body was significantly strengthened by this essence, the power in his body became more and more surging, as if every meridian and every muscle was cheering and celebrating this feast of strength.

However, when Li Qing completely refined the blood demon's body in his abdomen, he opened his eyes with anticipation and examined himself carefully, but he regretfully discovered that his body had not broken through the four hundred feet mark as expected.

This gap made him frown slightly, but he quickly recovered from this slight loss.

Because after a careful self-examination, Li Qing was pleasantly surprised to find that although he failed to break through the major barrier, his physical body had grown by as much as seven meters without him noticing, which was undoubtedly a significant improvement.

A strong premonition surged in his heart, and Li Qing firmly believed that as long as he devoured one more blood demon's body, the four-hundred-foot barrier would be broken through in one fell swoop.

It's a pity that the bloody body of the fifth-stage blood demon seemed to have been dead for too long, resulting in the loss of blood and flesh essence, and failed to fully exert its due effect.

According to Li Qing's previous experience, the benefits brought by swallowing and refining the essence of flesh and blood of a higher level for the first time should be extremely considerable.

He thought that he could take this opportunity to directly cross the threshold of four hundred feet, but he did not expect that there was a big gap between reality and expectations.

Despite this, Li Qing did not feel frustrated or disappointed.

Because he possesses the magical artifact Cornucopia, which can continuously replicate the blood demon's body.

This means that as long as he is willing, he will have countless blood demon bodies and countless opportunities to break through.

Thinking of this, Li Qing quickly got rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, and his eyes were filled with firmness and determination again.

Without further hesitation, he threw another blood demon's body into the cornucopia and began to wait patiently for the next replication to be completed.

This time, he had only one thought in his mind: next time, he must break through the 400-zhang mark in one fell swoop and bring his body and strength to a new level.

Time flies, and nearly two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

That day, Li Qing returned to the training room. Everything was as usual. He took out the treasure bowl from the corner and entered the space inside the treasure bowl without hesitation.

After entering the space, the scene in front of him was no different from the original one. There were still two exactly the same blood demon bodies there.

Li Qing did not hesitate and immediately revealed his true form, then began to frantically devour one of the blood demon's bodies.

As he swallowed the flesh and blood mouthful after mouthful, the essence of the flesh and blood quickly merged into his body, nourishing every inch of his skin and bones.

Li Qing could clearly feel that every inch of his skin and every muscle was greedily absorbing the essence of blood and flesh, bringing him an indescribable sense of comfort and satisfaction.

As time went by, Li Qing continued to devour, and the essence of the blood demon's body was gradually absorbed by him.

It seemed as if a new vitality was boiling in his body, and his previously stagnant flesh began to stir, as if looking for an opportunity to break through.

A strong premonition surged in Li Qing's heart - this swallowing would be the key to breaking through the bottleneck of his physical body and moving towards a higher realm.

As the essence of the blood demon's flesh and blood was swallowed and refined bit by bit by Li Qing, he felt as if a raging fire was burning in his body. That was a sign that the Heavenly Demon Killing Immortal Strategy was operating in his body.

This mysterious and powerful magic technique began to play its due role, helping Li Qing to refine the vast essence of blood and flesh in his abdomen bit by bit, nourishing and tempering his body.

He could clearly feel that his body was undergoing subtle changes under the nourishment of this power.

The physical body, which had been stagnant due to the bottleneck of four hundred feet, now seemed to be pushed by an invisible force and began to climb slowly.

His muscles, bones, and even every cell were cheering, as if celebrating this grand transformation.

As time went by, Li Qing felt that his body was becoming stronger and stronger. The feeling of being filled with power almost made him laugh out loud.

He seemed to be able to hear the sound of every muscle in his body growing and feel the surging power contained in every drop of blood.

Finally, when the last trace of blood and flesh essence was refined, Li Qing suddenly opened his eyes.

There was a dazzling light flashing in his eyes, which was the joy of breaking through the bottleneck and greatly increasing his strength.

He felt that his physical body had steadily entered a new realm of four hundred feet, and his physical strength had reached an unprecedented height.

He couldn't help but let out a long roar, which was a cheer for strength and an expectation for the future.

He knew that this breakthrough was just the beginning and there was still a long way to go.

But he was confident that with this newfound strength and the mysterious power of the Heavenly Demon Slaying Immortal Strategy, he would be able to be more confident and steady in his fight against the heavenly calamity.

After calming down his excitement after his physical breakthrough, Li Qing slowly walked out of the training room, and every step seemed to be more determined than before.

His heart was filled with indescribable joy and anticipation, a feeling like a flower just blooming in spring, fresh and full of vitality.

Now he just wanted to share this hard-earned achievement and joy with the most important demon.

So, he walked towards the observation deck where Chi Feng was without hesitation, where they usually enjoyed the scenery together.

At this significant moment, nothing could be more appropriate than to pour out your heart to your wife there.

Ever since his wife became pregnant with their child, she has been just like what the ancients said, "turning a deaf ear to the world outside and focusing on reading the books of sages." The only difference is that what she reads are not the books of sages, but her endless longing and expectation for her future child.

The changes in the outside world have become secondary to her. All her thoughts are focused on the new life that is about to be born, and she is almost indifferent to other things.

Li Qing pondered in his heart that regarding the opportunity for his physical body to break through, he had already prepared an excuse that was both simple and unlikely to arouse suspicion.

He planned to attribute all this to the abundant resources recently invested by the spiritual world. This would not only explain the reason for the increase in strength, but also avoid unnecessary complicated explanations.

After all, his wife has always been gentle and considerate. As long as she knows that he has become stronger and has more control over the future tribulations, she will feel sincerely happy. As for the process, she will never ask too many questions.
