Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises-Chapter 399 - 163: Enchantment

Inside the room.

A faint blood-colored aura rose from Lin Zheyu’s body.

This aura, condensed from Qi Blood as it reached its pinnacle, transformed into a blood-colored dragon.

Under his control, the blood-colored dragon changed forms, appearing lively and vivid.

"Is this Qi Blood externalization?"

Lin Zheyu curiously manipulated the blood-colored dragon, making various poses.

Before reaching the Qi Blood Dragon Realm, Qi Blood could not be externalized and could only flow through the body relying on blood vessels scattered throughout.

Unexpectedly, after advancing to the Qi Blood Dragon Realm, Qi Blood actually became strong enough to break through for external release.

"Though interesting, the intensity is too low."

"The externalized Qi Blood lacks attack power and can only be used to enhance the atmosphere."

Lin Zheyu played around with it for a while until the novelty wore off.

He retracted the faint Qi Blood surrounding him back into his body, fully activating Turtle Breath True Skill. His aura quickly diminished, returning to a mundane state.

He looked at the data in his consciousness.

[Heavenly Dao Rewards the Diligent]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 39

Skills:

Purple Thunder Blood Coagulation Skill (Perfection)

Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill (Perfection)

Turtle Breath True Skill (Sixth Layer 0%)

Golden Swan Skill (Tenth Layer 100%)

Purple Thunder Tyrant Fist (Seventh Layer 100%)

Spiritual Mysterious Body Skill (Fifth Layer 100%)

"There’s still thirty-nine units of Source Power left, enough to cause another qualitative transformation in Qi Blood."

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

During the recent advancement, he could clearly feel that Nine Transformations of Qi and Blood was not the limit for a Martial Artist.

If he continued his cultivation, he could still continue to improve, allowing Qi Blood to undergo further qualitative transformations.

However, the efficiency of continuous improvement is much lower.

It requires more time, energy, and power.

"No need to hurry with the improvement. Let’s first unlock the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill and see what effect it has."

"The Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill locks up life essence, vital energy, and Qi Blood, directly impacting the potential of this body."

"Even with the cultivation redone, the total Qi Blood cultivated can’t even reach half of what it was before."

"It’s roughly a bit over a third of what it used to be."

"I wonder if unlocking the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill will allow the Qi Blood that was locked to perfectly merge with the Qi Blood cultivated anew."

Lin Zheyu felt a little apprehensive.

The Qi Blood that was previously locked was at the Eight Transformations tier, locked along with Life Essence.

Upon unlocking, whether the eight-times transformed Qi Blood can merge with the nine-times transformed Qi Blood is secondary.

The most important thing is whether it can break through the physical shackles and increase the total amount of Qi Blood.

Squeak.

He pushed open the door, checking the courtyard surroundings.

He confirmed no one else had returned and that no one was nearby.

At the instant of unlocking the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill, a massive surge of Life Essence mixed with Qi Blood gushed forth like a flood.

Even with the Turtle Breath True Skill’s cover, he couldn’t mask all the aura.

Whew~~~

After confirming everything was all right, Lin Zheyu exhaled deeply, clearing distractions from his mind.

’Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill, release!’

As the thought flickered, Lin Zheyu’s hands swiftly formed seals, simultaneously pressing hard on the acupoints all over his body.

The massive Life Essence and Qi Blood that were firmly locked in his acupoints, with the release of the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill, burst forth with a thunderous roar.

Strong!

Incredibly strong.

This was Lin Zheyu’s current feeling.

He felt like his body was about to be torn apart by the massive Qi Blood.

At the same time, as the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill was released, the powerful life energy merged into his body.

Lin Zheyu’s body, like a shriveled sponge, quickly absorbed this life energy.

As he absorbed, the feeling of bursting from Qi Blood diminished significantly.

"The Qi Blood at the Eight Transformations tier is being rapidly absorbed and converted to the Nine Transformations tier."

"After using the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill, and with the life energy replenishment, the sense of weakness in the body has disappeared."

"However, there’s a feeling of disconnect, as the fusion wasn’t perfect."

"..."

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

He closed his eyes, carefully sensing the changes in his body after unlocking the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill.

After unlocking it, the previously locked life energy and Qi Blood energy had a slight feeling of disconnect with the body.

The life energy and Qi Blood energy were slowly dissipating.

This disconnect feeling was caused by damage to the foundation due to using the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill.

"If it continues this way, as time passes, most of this energy will dissipate."

"Use Source Power to restore the foundation damaged by the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill, and at the same time, recover the body to peak state."

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

He placed his hand into a basin of water, closed his eyes, and sent out his thoughts.

’Use one unit of Source Power to enhance the Purple Thunder Blood Coagulation Skill.’

In an instant, a massive mysterious energy surged out, restoring the foundation damaged by the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill instantly.

The dissipating Qi Blood and life energy halted, then began to rise rapidly at an astonishing speed.

A few breaths later.

Lin Zheyu opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air.

His eyes revealed a faint trace of exhaustion.

The frequent use of Source Power to enhance within a short time greatly consumed his spirit.

Lin Zheyu carefully sensed the Qi Blood energy within his body.

Slowly, the corner of his mouth slightly curled up, showing a faint smile.

"It really can be done!"

"Although the total amount hasn’t increased much, having an effect is what matters."

"After all, this is only the effect of restoring cultivation after using the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill once to enhance the total amount of Qi Blood."

"If the number of uses increases, the effect will be extremely astonishing!"

Lin Zheyu was in a very good mood.

After using the Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill to lock the Life Essence and Qi Blood, then cultivating anew, and unlocking it.
