After receiving permission from his master, Xu Yan went home again to teach his parents the method of martial arts cultivation. Naturally, the foundation of martial arts cultivation begins with sensing the Qi and blood flow, and then refining the body’s skin.

For this, he deliberately brought back a nine-leaf Ganoderma herb to help his parents cultivate and sense their Qi and blood.

The core protectors of the Xu family currently are Pharmacist Pan and more than a dozen staunch defenders, all of whom were cultivated in secret by Xu Junhe.

Pharmacist Pan possesses the strength of a top martial artist in the rivers and lakes, while the rest of the protectors are all high-level practitioners.

Moreover, Pharmacist Pan can also concoct nourishing medicines.

Since they are core members of the Xu family, Xu Yan also imparted the martial arts cultivation methods to them. Whether they could successfully cultivate or have the gift, will depend on their own fate.

Of course, Xu Yan only taught the method of refining skin, bones, and internal organs. He did not pass on the cultivation technique of the Qi and Blood Realm.

The Qi and Blood Realm is too far beyond their reach.

Xu Yan, who had just returned to East River County, once again set off for the capital city to impart his cultivation technique to his uncles, cousins, and others.

In Yunshan County, Li Xuan leisurely sat on a chair.

Meng Chong was diligently cultivating as usual. As the cultivation progressed, his golden bell-like physique was improving, and his bones had reached the stage of being as hard as iron.

Shi’er also came every day to do chores such as cooking and cleaning. He was a hardworking person, so Li Xuan decided to teach him the martial arts technique of refining the skin.

Shi’er himself was a top martial artist in the rivers and lakes. If he had a talent for martial arts and could sense Qi and refine his skin, his strength would increase significantly, and the speed of completing the skin refinement would not be too slow.

“Shi’er, come here!”

Li Xuan beckoned.

“Senior, what do you need?”

Shi’er hurried over, bending his body and asked.

“You are a sharp and hardworking person. Fine, I need someone to run errands during my time in this world. Are you willing?”

Li Xuan asked in an incredibly calm manner.

“I am willing, I am willing. This is a grand opportunity for me!”

Shi’er was so excited that he knelt to the ground.

“Shi’er, paying respects to the master!”

Thud thud thud!

“Hmm, get up.”

Li Xuan nodded and said, “1 will teach you the basic method of martial arts. Whether you can grasp it depends on your own talent and fate.”

“Yes, thank you, master!”

Shi’er’s heart was pounding violently.

Finally, he also had the chance to become a martial arts expert.

“The first step in martial arts cultivation is to sense Qi and blood, and then refine the skin. Today, I will teach you the method of skin refinement. Whether you can master it depends on your own talent and fate.”

Li Xuan taught the method of refining skin to Shi’er. As for the later refining bones and internal organs, he would teach them after Shi’er could sense Qi and complete skin refinement.

“Thank you, master!”

Shi’er was extremely excited.

“Go and comprehend it yourself, find a room to live in.”

Li Xuan waved his hand.

Since Shi’er had become a servant, he naturally had to live in the courtyard and take care of all the chores.

“Yes!”

Shi’er respectfully backed away.

In the capital of Qi Country, because of Xu Yan’s second visit, Emperor Qi and his officials became very cautious again. It felt like a mountain was hanging over their heads, which made Emperor Qi and his officials even more determined to find a martial arts expert.

Only by finding a martial arts expert could this mountain hanging over their heads be moved away.

After teaching the martial arts cultivation techniques, Xu Yan did not immediately return to East River County, but temporarily stayed in Qi King’s Mansion.

“I’m about to break through to the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm.”

Xu Yan, who was cultivating, was extremely excited, he was only one step away from reaching the highest level of the Qi and Blood Realm.

“I have almost grasped the cultivation techniques of the Innate Realm. I have some understanding now, and not long after reaching the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm, 1 should be able to comprehend it completely.”

After reaching the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm, he was one step closer to the second realm of Martial Arts, the Innate Realm.

“After reaching the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm, I aim to fully master Qi and Blood within a month.”

Xu Yan set a goal for himself.

Boom!

The energy and blood surged ever more powerfully. His jade-like bones seemed to glow, his Qi and Blood continued to become increasingly pure and grow, not far from the peak of the Qi and Blood Realm, at a hundred Zhangs’ length.

At one moment, the Qi seemed to cross a vast gulf, suddenly soared, and became distinctly purer, and a tide of Qi and Blood erupted, reaching a hundred Zhangs in distance.

Boom!

Immediately afterward, the Qi and Blood that had shot skyward turned into a massive red dragon, soaring as if piercing the sky.

The momentum of Xu Yan’s breakthrough was considerable. All people including Guo Rongshan were astonished at the sight of a hundred Zhangs-long dragon rising from Xu Yan’s courtyard, taken aback.

“Has Yan’er’s strength increased again?”

“Great, very good indeed!”

Guo Rongshan and his son were overjoyed.

From the Qi King’s residence, not far from the royal palace, Emperor Qi looked in the direction of the Qi King’s residence. His color changed, was Xu Yan flaunting his martial power?

No!

Had his ability grown stronger?

At this moment, Emperor Qi felt a sense of urgency, and must find a martial arts expert quickly!

In the East Palace of the Crown Prince, the Third Prince excitedly ordered, “Quick, prepare gifts, I want to go pay my respects to my mentor!”

The assembly of ministers was awestruck. They whipped their good-for-nothing sons and sent them all out to find martial experts.

The Crown Prince could no longer sit still. That day, he led his palace guards out of the capital to find martial experts.

That day, the capital city of Qi Country was destined to be anything but calm, as a fever for finding martial experts swept the city.

Xu Yan, as the instigator of all this, was immersed in the wonder of his breakthrough, feeling the strengthening of his own ability. Only after the breakthrough did he experience a greater awe of his master’s power.

“The full development of Qi and Blood that the master showed me back then had such an overwhelming momentum, such an endless Qi and Blood. It’s far stronger than what I have now!”

Xu Yan felt somewhat ashamed in his heart. “I’m still too weak. Even after cultivating Jade bones, I’m still far from enough.”

“Master’s realm is unimaginably deep. What he showed me was probably how he was when he reached the peak of Qi and Blood Realm. In comparison, I’m lacking too much.”

“No wonder master kept telling me to guard against arrogance and impetuosity. My strength is not strong enough.”

The more he pondered, the more he felt the strength of his master.

“Although I’m not as powerful as my master, I should not belittle myself. I’m no weaker than the prodigious talents of ancient times; I am even stronger!”

Xu Yan was encouraging himself in his heart.

Master is too strong, like a lofty mountain that cannot be surpassed. But as long as he has faith, he can one day reach the same height as his master.”

Xu Yan gathered his Qi and Blood and exhaled deeply.

“My Qi and Blood are at their peak. The cultivation technique of the Innate Realm is becoming increasingly clear to me.”

Xu Yan entered his room, sat cross-legged on the bed, let out a breath, and his state of mind gradually became clear, entering a state of complete oneness with the world.

Only the profound understanding, gradually appears in his mind.

The cultivation method of the Innate Realm is becoming increasingly clear, gradually appearing before him like a continuous thread.

How to connect the Heaven and Earth Bridge, how to refine Qi and Blood into Innate True Qi, how to ingest and exhale nature’s spiritual energy, open up the Sea of Qi Dantian…

The cultivation technique became increasingly clear, as if an image of breaking through to the Innate Realm appeared in his mind, how to ingest and exhale nature’s spiritual energy.

“Connect the Heaven and Earth Bridge, sense the nature’s spiritual energy, guide the spiritual energy into the two bridges of Heaven and Earth, open up the Dantian Sea of Qi…”

An excited expression appeared on Xu Yan’s face.

The more he comprehended, the clearer the cultivation method of the Innate Realm became. The sequence of breakthroughs, the process of cultivation… gradually emerged in his mind.

“I have finally grasped the cultivation technique of the Innate Realm. Once my Qi and Blood Realm reaches perfection, I can proceed to break through to the Innate Realm!”

Xu Yan opened his eyes, his face was filled with excitement..
