The Tao is far away

Afterwards, Wang Chi's body suddenly twitched twice, as if struck by an invisible electric current, and then he fainted silently. His body collapsed to the ground powerlessly, in stark contrast to the refined corpse.

After a while, Wang Chi covered his head in pain and climbed up from the ground with difficulty.

When he opened his eyes, the suffocating aura of a king had disappeared, replaced by his usual "pure" look, like an ignorant boy who had just woken up.

Wang Chi felt severe pain all over his body. He couldn't help but frowned and muttered, "Situ, does your secret technique have any side effects? It hurts so much."

He rubbed his temples, trying to ease the headache.

"What about the refined corpse? Have you dealt with it?"

Regarding everything that happened before, Wang Chi seemed to have lost a part of his memory. His mind was blank and he couldn't remember anything.

"Look next to you"

"Fuck!" Wang Chi shuddered and, ignoring the pain in his body, dodged to the side.

Wang Chi stared at it cautiously for a long time before tiptoeing over.

When he got closer, Wang Chi carefully poked the object with a wooden stick he found from somewhere, as if testing whether it was safe.

He finally felt relieved when he found no abnormal reaction.

"That's great, Situ."

"Not only did it heal my arm, it also subdued such a powerful corpse."

"It was just a slight move." Situ responded lightly, as if he didn't think he had done anything great.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and put this corpse away quickly." Situ seemed a little impatient and said in a serious tone.

Although Wang Chi didn't quite understand Situ's intentions, he still followed the instructions and carefully put away the subdued corpse.

At the same time, he did not forget to pick up the storage bag that Lin Yi dropped on the ground.

"Why take this unlucky thing?" Wang Chi asked puzzledly, bewildered by the act of putting away the refined corpse.

"This thing still has some skills. I will teach you a secret technique later to transfer some of it to you." Situ explained.

After Situ finished speaking, Wang Chi felt a series of strange words appear in his mind. They seemed to be directly engraved in his mind. This must be the secret technique that Situ mentioned.

"You should meditate carefully first. My soul is damaged now and I need to rest first."

Situ's voice gradually became weaker. It was obvious that he was not in good condition and needed time to recover.

After a long and vague period of time, Wang Chi finally understood and mastered the obscure and difficult to understand secret technique after hard practice and meditation.

Wang Chi called softly, waking up Situ who had been sleeping, and told him that he was needed as a protector. Situ nodded to show his understanding.

Wang Chi slowly sat cross-legged in front of the corpse to be refined, his eyes solemn.

As his hands continued to make complex seals, ancient and mysterious secret mantras kept ringing from his mouth.

"Yin turns to Yang, Qi flows through the body, up and down are unpredictable..."

As Wang Chi continued to mutter, the space beneath his body seemed to fluctuate, gradually forming a complex magic circle composed of light and shadow.

The magic circle seemed to have life, spinning, spreading, and emitting a faint light.

Under the influence of this force, the corpse that was originally lying motionless actually began to undergo subtle changes, and its body slowly rose up.

Then, an astonishing scene happened. Seven streams of rich blood-colored spiritual energy suddenly gushed out from the seven orifices of the corpse. They spread out in all directions as if they had consciousness, but quickly gathered into halos, surrounding Wang Chi.

These blood-colored halos danced around Wang Chi, gradually accelerating, and finally transformed into streams of energy that continuously penetrated into Wang Chi's body and merged with his own aura.

As the blood-colored spiritual energy containing powerful energy continued to flow into Wang Chi's body, he began to feel an unprecedented power.

The strength of this power far exceeded any experience he had had before when he was meditating and absorbing the sporadic spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

They were like a real torrent, impacting the meridians in his body.

Wang Chi's senses were significantly enhanced by the nourishment of this powerful spiritual energy.

His vision seemed to penetrate the boundaries of matter and he could see more subtle flows of energy.

His hearing also became so sensitive that he could hear the faint sounds of life beating and air flowing in the distance.

Even the sense of smell and touch reaches a new level, being able to discern more complex aromas and the slightest changes in objects when touched.

Under this almost infinitely magnified perception, Wang Chi's consciousness seemed to be closely connected with the world around him. He could feel the pulse of the earth, the flow of air, and even the passage of time.

Wang Chi's mind became unusually clear at this moment. All distracting thoughts were swept away, leaving only a deep understanding of the secret technique and an unparalleled determination in the path of cultivation.

At the same time, the seven blood-colored auras emitted by the corpse were still continuously merging into Wang Chi's body, and his cultivation level was constantly improving.

Fifth level of Qi refining

Sixth floor

七层

……

The peak of Qi refining!

"Okay, stop!" Situ said.

As the magic circle was cut off, the powerful spiritual energy that had been continuously flowing into his body gradually stopped flowing, and no new spiritual energy was integrated into his body.

Situ looked at Wang Chi and said calmly: "Okay, disperse your cultivation." This brief command made Wang Chi fall from that powerful state in an instant.

"what?"

Wang Chi couldn't help but wonder aloud, his brows furrowed, obviously confused.

For cultivators, every improvement in their cultivation is extremely valuable, especially the gain after going through such a difficult process, which is even more difficult to give up.

Situ looked at Wang Chi's confusion and reminded him, "Have you forgotten Zhenmu Gong?"

Wang Chi suddenly realized.

This practice requires practitioners to practice it repeatedly, and each time is like cutting down an old tree, just to start from the root and grow a tougher new tree.

Although this method of practice may seem counter-intuitive, it can actually make the practice more solid, lay a solid foundation for future building, and greatly increase the probability of success.

After understanding this, Wang Chi no longer hesitated.

He began to practice the Zhenmu Gong technique, gradually decomposing and dissipating the newly strengthened skills in his body, transforming them into the most primitive energy and returning them to heaven and earth.
