Chapter 208: Chapter 139: Life Force Accelerates Growth, The Suspicious Mr. An



Among the Five Major Practices-corresponding to skin, flesh, tendons, bones, and blood-he was today working on the Armor Shaking Skill for \'Bone Training,\' which also corresponded to \'Kidney Training\' among the five organs. Strong kidneys lead to full bones, and vice versa.

Since the practice of the Armor Shaking Skill puts a great strain on the body, Xue Jing had to alternate it daily, practicing only one set of movements per day to allow ample rest and recovery time for his body.

Previously, Xue Jing had always done this, but today was different.

His lengthy breaths slowly steadied, and Xue Jing\'s whole skeleton continued to tremble violently, emitting a rumbling thunderous sound.

From an introspective view, his kidneys were constantly expanding and contracting, each time squeezing out some dark turbid substance, which was then swept away by the torrent of blood.

With each expulsion of the turbid substances, the kidneys imperceptibly became stronger, and their surfaces more crystalline and translucent, giving them a clean appearance.

After a complete set of the Armor Shaking Skill for Bone and Kidney Training, his body was very tired, bearing various degrees of injury in different places.

Martial Arts Practice emphasizes moderation; it was now necessary to stop and rest until the body had recovered tomorrow before continuing.

However, Xue Jing had a thought.

From the introspective view, a quietly burning flame inside his body manifested his robust life force.

His strong and influential spiritual power began to interfere with the life force inside him, forcibly mobilizing it.

The Life Fire began to burn fiercely and surged towards various injuries incurred from practicing the Armor Shaking Skill.

In just over ten seconds, all the injuries healed completely, and his body was fully restored.

He then continued to practice the Armor Shaking Skill.

Not until he had practiced it thoroughly once more and his whole skeleton emitted continuous rumbling thunderous sounds did Xue Jing stop.

He did not continue to force life force to rapidly heal the injuries, but instead picked up a Nebulizer Inhaler, already filled with liquified Dragon Thunder Powder, placed it on his face, and turned it on.

He operated the breathing skills, inhaling Dragon Thunder Powder vaporized into golden mist into his lungs, to be transported to the kidneys and throughout the body by the blood.

It wasn\'t until the liquified Dragon Thunder Powder was depleted that Xue Jing took off the Nebulizer Inhaler and opened the panel to have a look.

[You have practiced the Armor Shaking Skill once, Fitness Experience Points +351]

[… Hidden Dragon Energy Experience Points +333]

[… Fitness Experience Points +359]

[… Hidden Dragon Energy Experience Points +349]

[You have taken a kidney-nourishing medicine, Health Cultivation Experience Value +221]

After introspecting the burning situation of his life force within, Xue Jing opened his eyes.

"Health Cultivation Lv8 brings robust life force that allows me to forcefully repair my body\'s injuries, practicing the Armor Shaking Skill twice a day."

"This way, the guaranteed increase in my daily Fitness and Hidden Dragon Energy Experience Points has doubled, reaching seven hundred points... and the progress on the Five Major Practices that the panel does not show has also doubled."

Xue Jing nodded in satisfaction.

His growth rate was accelerating.

If life force itself didn\'t also need time to recover, he could even continue to practice crazily all day, immediately forcing life force to heal injuries once done.

But that would be a forced overdraft, and there would come a time when his life force couldn\'t keep up.

Nowadays, activating his life force once a day to heal injuries and practicing the Armor Shaking Skill twice, with the life force itself completely recovering the next day, maintained a just-right balance of inflow and outflow.

As he advanced to higher levels of Health Cultivation in the future, his life force would grow even stronger, and soon he might be able to train three, four, or even five times a day...

"A day\'s routine gains would be several thousand experience points, wouldn\'t that rocket one to the sky?"

Xue Jing stood up and left the gym, walking into the living room.

Ning Fengwan, in her cat-eared maiden form, was sprawled on the couch, playing with Xue Jing\'s phone.

Beneath her denim shorts were two slender, jade-like legs kicking alternately, with a tail atop her perky buttocks swaying leisurely from side to side.

Seeing Xue Jing come out of the gym, Ning Fengwan flipped over and sat up in a duck-sitting position, handing the phone to Xue Jing and saying,

"Jing, look at this."

"Hmm?" Xue Jing walked over to her, took the phone, and glanced at it.

The screen displayed a chat page, one he had seen before.

It was the \'Inside World\' forum page, which he had glimpsed when he used screen recording software to spy on Miao Miao\'s computer activities.

[def3y64b: Sect Hierarch, are you in Maple City right now?]

[def3y64b: I have urgent business with you. Let\'s meet.]

The chat history had only these two messages, and Ning Fengwan hadn\'t responded. The messages were sent last night at eleven.

Xue Jing stroked his chin and asked, "Who is this?"

Ning Fengwan crossed her arms over her chest, pushing up her bust contemplatively, "It should be Mr. An."

"Only Yun Qin, that little girl, knows about my account on the Inside World forum, and she\'s currently with Mr. An. This is a new account, created a few days ago, yet it knows who I am. It must undoubtedly be Mr. An."

"But why didn\'t he let Yun Qin contact me, instead opting to create an account himself?"

Xue Jing sat down on the couch, casually asking, "How does he know you\'re in Maple City?"

Ning Fengwan shook her head, "I didn\'t tell him… Maybe he saw the news about your competition in Maple City and guessed I might have come with you?"

Xue Jing placed his hand on his thigh, tapping lightly with his index finger as he thought for a while before saying,

"Sounds a bit suspicious. Let\'s ignore him for now."

"However, the Dragon Cult headquarters is somewhat troublesome, and Mr. An has been wanting you to go there for the bestowal ceremony. We have to deal with this eventually."

"Let\'s leave him hanging for now. I\'m leaving for the Intersecting Boundaries the day after tomorrow after the competition. We can talk about this when I return."

Ning Fengwan nodded at first, then whispered, "…I\'m a bit worried about Yun Qin; it\'s been a few days since she last contacted me."

Yun Qin was a follower specifically assigned to take care of her after she was chosen as the Dragon Cult\'s heir, much like an ancient lady\'s maidservant.

Hardworking and loyal, she was one of the few people Ning Fengwan cared about within the Dragon Cult.

Xue Jing was aware of this and, after a moment\'s thought, said softly, "You use the Inside World forum to ask Mr. An about Yun Qin\'s situation. If you can\'t get anything, then we\'ll go meet him."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengwan hesitated before shaking her head,

"If she\'s fine, there\'s no need to contact her. If something has happened, then contacting now would be too late."

"We have many enemies; we must be cautious. Mr. An seems a bit suspicious, so it\'s better not to meet him for the time being."

As Xue Jing was about to speak, a knocking sound came from outside the door.

"Thud, thud—"
