The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

The matter downstairs had been resolved, but Zeng Wenyu and Zhang Qing upstairs became nervous instead. They then realized that the middle-aged man who was very hostile to them was actually Old Man Huanyu, the leader of the Hehuan Sect. This disrupted Zeng Wenyu's original plan, and made him realize that his previous plan of attracting firepower by himself was no longer possible.

If it was a cultivator in the Divine Realm, Zeng Wenyu would still have a chance to escape. The attacks of the cultivators in the Divine Realm were very powerful, but Zeng Wenyu could also withstand one or two hits. However, it was different in the Tribulation Realm. Unless he could break through two major realms in body refining, he would be doomed to death.

"What should I do?" Zhang Qing was a little panicked, but she did not blame Zeng Wenyu for killing the fourth son of the happy old man at that time. She was just a little anxious.

"There is no better solution. Now we can only believe that Senior Sister will be chosen by the deputy sect master next month." Zeng Wenyu walked to Zhang Qing and held her shoulders to calm her down. "When she goes to Danding Sect, I believe that even Elder Huanyu will not force his hand on someone chosen by the deputy sect master of Danding Sect."

"That's right, but what if Senior Sister fails? We still have to prepare for the worst..."

"If Senior Sister fails, then we will stay in Dan City for a while, and leave Dan City when our cultivation level breaks through to the point where we can escape from Old Man Huanyue."

"But we don't seem to have that many spirit stones for our accommodation, right?"

"..."

Zeng Wenyu was silent for a while. He knew what to do next. Even if his senior sister Li Shengnan failed, he believed that many people in Dancheng would choose to hire his senior sister. By then, with his senior sister's ability, they would be able to earn enough spirit stones to live in Dancheng, but... he didn't want this to happen.

However, now is not the time to lose temper. Among their group, only Nannan will not be retaliated by Old Man Huanyu because she is a native resident of Dancheng and did not participate in the previous events. But if he, Zhang Qing and Li Shengnan do not continue to live in Dancheng, their fate will be obvious.

"It doesn't matter. Qingqing, you also know Senior Sister's level of alchemy. By then, we can rely on Senior Sister to survive in Dan City. As long as our cultivation level breaks through a few more times, even if the opponent is a cultivator in the Tribulation Realm, we can escape from his hands."

Zhang Qing actually knew that this was possible, but she also felt uncomfortable. Although she lost to Zeng Wenyu at the beginning, her cultivation was actually higher than Zeng Wenyu's before. But now she has become the one with the lowest cultivation here and can't help at all.

Seeing Zhang Qing's mood suddenly drop, Zeng Wenyu could only hold her in his arms.

Nannan, who was standing aside, looked at Zeng Wenyu and Zhang Qing. She didn't understand these things very well, but that didn't stop her from knowing that someone downstairs wanted to harm Zeng Wenyu and Zhang Qing. But even Zeng Wenyu and Zhang Qing couldn't do anything about it, and she herself couldn't help and could only sit aside and listen.

"Okay, okay, no matter how anxious you are, it's useless now. Why don't we try harder? Maybe we can break through, and then we'll have a better chance of success when we escape."

Zhang Qing nodded and stood up from Zeng Wenyu's arms. She took Nannan's hand and left the room and returned to her own room.

Seeing Zhang Qing and Nannan leave, Zeng Wenyu sat cross-legged on the cushion again, took out spiritual herbs from the storage bag and began to replenish the qi and blood in his body. Most of the qi and blood in his body had been consumed in the previous practice, but even after consuming most of the qi and blood, his opened acupoints were not filled.

After replenishing the Qi and blood in his body, he began to guide the external true Qi into his body again. This time, Zeng Wenyu did not let the true Qi and blood in his body run wild. He suppressed the true Qi and blood in his body and let them slowly enter the opened acupuncture points.

Zeng Wenyu could feel that although the Qi and blood in his body were being consumed, and the consumed Qi and blood would not recover by itself, his cultivation was indeed slowly increasing. He knew that he had broken through the Blood Refining Realm, but as for what his current realm should be, he himself did not know what his current realm should be called.

Feeling his cultivation level improving, Zeng Wenyu stood up from the mat, walked to Zhang Qing and Nannan's room, and borrowed the wooden man with acupuncture points all over the body from Nannan.

Looking at the acupuncture points represented by the red dots on the wooden man, Zeng Wenyu began to open the acupuncture points in his body one by one according to the red dots on the wooden man.

As his acupoints were opened one by one, the true Qi and Qi and blood power that had been suppressed in his body suddenly calmed down. When only one acupoint was opened, they rushed into that acupoint frantically. But now that all the acupoints in his body were opened, the Qi and blood power and true Qi had room to choose, and they might rush into any opened acupoint.

As the 365 acupoints in the body were opened one by one, Zeng Wenyu found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not open the other acupoints on the wooden man. The power of Qi and blood combined with the true Qi would only be transmitted through those acupoints, and it seemed as if those acupoints could not be touched at all.

Since there was no way to open it, Zeng Wenyu did not force it. He felt that his body had begun to automatically absorb the true energy from the outside, and the absorbed qi and blood were gradually recovering. He breathed a sigh of relief. He was just afraid that he would need to guide it all the time during this stage. If this continued, he would not be able to do anything else.

He raised his hand and punched forward, feeling his current body. His strength was many times greater than before. The sound of breaking through the air that previously required almost all his strength could now be produced with just a light punch. More importantly, he felt that he could mobilize the Qi and blood and true Qi that had been absorbed by the acupuncture points in his body at any time, and the Qi and blood and true Qi in the acupuncture points were endless, as if his acupuncture points had also learned to practice autonomously.

"What a pity..." Zeng Wenyu touched his brow, "When I opened the acupuncture points in my body just now, I clearly saw another acupuncture point on my head. This acupuncture point is not on the wooden man. The two forces can be integrated into it but the acupuncture point is not opened. It seems that it cannot be opened now. But maybe, that is not an acupuncture point, but a point that can be cultivated next."

Putting all these thoughts behind him, he put the wooden man into his storage bag. It was getting late now, so he planned to return the wooden man to Nannan tomorrow.

Although they did not actively practice, his body was practicing all the time. It was just that he did not actively absorb the true Qi from the outside world, and the speed at which the true Qi entered his body was much slower.
