: Achieving the Qi and Blood Realm!

"I never imagined that after setting so many traps, that one-eyed demon would still escape!"

"Its strength should be close to that of a second-tier spirit, and it will probably break through soon."

"I told you long ago not to provoke this monster. Now it has its sights firmly set on our Black Mountain Village. If it successfully advances to a higher level one day, there will be no survivors in Black Mountain Village, not even a bird will be able to fly away!"

"What's the point of saying this now that it's already happened?"

Black Mountain Village.

ancestral hall.

Eight or nine people sat around in the courtyard discussing matters.

Several of them are elderly people of high seniority in the village.

The rest are the backbone of the village now, all of them cultivators who have entered the late stage of the Qi and Blood Realm, and they jointly manage all the affairs of Black Mountain Village.

"This one-eyed demon has already condensed its essence. If we can obtain this essence, our village might just produce a powerful expert who breaks through the shackles of the Qi and Blood Realm!"

"The nearest village to us, Yanling Village, produced a powerful expert who surpassed the Qi and Blood Realm years ago. They no longer need to fear attacks from second-tier monsters, and they're living such good lives now!"

"Over the years, they've also hunted down quite a few weaker second-tier demonic beasts, significantly boosting the overall combat strength of their village!"

"If our Black Mountain Village could have such a powerful figure, it would be a tremendous blessing for the entire village!"

"Fortune favors the bold, Uncle Guanhai. How can we make Black Mountain Village stronger if we don't take a chance?"

Liu Wanhe looked at Mo Guanhai, his tone firm and resolute.

Mo Guanhai shook his head and sighed, saying, "I just hope our village can be peaceful; anything else is meaningless."

"Don't worry, Uncle Guanhai, we will definitely not let that one-eyed demon beast succeed in advancing."

In the courtyard, there were a few others who shared the same stance as Liu Wanhe.

Mo Guanhai's cloudy eyes swept over them; these people were all descendants of his old friends who had once co-founded Black Mountain Village with him.

Decades have passed, and it seems that these kids have also developed a desire for power, and they are even willing to disobey their elders.

The atmosphere at the scene became somewhat tense for a moment, and the people present were subtly divided into two factions.

One faction consisted of the hunting team members led by Liu Wanhe, while the other faction consisted of the older generation led by Mo Guanhai, as well as Huang Xin, the village chief of Heishan Village.

"Brother Xin, what do you say? With our strength, we might not be afraid of that one-eyed ghost if we join forces!" Liu Wanhe looked at Huang Xin and said confidently.

Huang Xin remained noncommittal, only saying, "If there's a real chance of winning, of course I want to take down this one-eyed demon."

Then he changed the subject.

"However, I've tried twice and failed both times, so I'm not really confident."

"Usually only second-tier spirits can condense essence, which is definitely not something we can plot against. We've finally encountered a first-tier spirit that has condensed essence, are we just going to let it go like this?"

Liu Wanhe was disdainful of Huang Xin's hesitation, but at this moment he was trying to persuade him with an extremely sincere expression.

"Alright, let's try again and continue searching for the One-Eyed Demon's trail."

Hearing Huang Xin finally agree, Liu Wanhe was overjoyed and quickly said, "Alright, our hunting team will continue our operation tonight!"

As the discussion ended, everyone got up and dispersed.

at this time.

A tall, burly man to Liu Wanhe's left suddenly spoke up: "Wanhe, the spirit patterns on Shen Yun's house don't seem to have lost their effect. The wooden house hasn't been destroyed by the monsters yet."

"It's just a matter of a few days anyway, so don't worry about it."

Upon hearing this, Liu Wanhe waved his hand dismissively.

Shen Yun and his wife were not very strong, and their child was only able to recover his health when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.

The eldest child had been practicing the Wild Bull Technique for almost a year, but had not yet reached the Qi and Blood Realm, indicating that he was not a person of outstanding talent.

Without the protection of a spiritual practitioner, these three children would definitely not have survived.

"Get ready, tonight's operation absolutely cannot go wrong again."

……

"Ah-Xin, what are you planning to do with Shen Yun's family?"

Huang Xin's home.

Mo Guanhai stood with his hands behind his back, his posture slightly hunched, and slowly asked the person in front of him.

"I've gone to check it out. Their spirit patterns are still very clear. I guess Liao Ning's family repaired it for them. It shouldn't be a problem to hold on for another month. I'll go again then," Huang Xin replied in a low voice.

"Sigh, that kid Wanhe thought we didn't know anything. He sent Shen Yun and his wife to be bait for the One-Eyed Ghost, and they died. He didn't even think about giving their children an explanation. He just wanted to let those three kids fend for themselves."

Mo Guanhai sighed heavily: "Brother Liu Guan is a man of great loyalty and righteousness, but his child is such a scoundrel."

Then, he paused, looked up at Huang Xin, and said, "You need to be careful of that kid Wan He. I think he's not up to any good."

"I know, Uncle Guanhai."

Huang Xin nodded.

Liu Wanhe had always wanted the position of village chief, and in order to gain power, he secretly did a lot of things.

Huang Xin saw all of this.

However, Liu Wanhe is now very powerful, and almost half of the hunting team are on his side.

Therefore, getting rid of him won't be that easy.

......

A day passes in the blink of an eye.

Shen Yi could hardly feel the passage of time.

He's currently setting up bull-shaped stakes in the yard.

With utmost concentration, focus your attention on the Qi and blood within your body, and try your best to guide the scattered Qi and blood to gather into a cohesive flow.

He tried to make his qi and blood circulate according to his will, following the cultivation path set by the Wild Bull Stake.

Through persistent efforts.

The scattered qi and blood in the body finally showed signs of gathering together.

Shen Yi's spirits lifted.

Focus more intently on guiding the flow of Qi and blood.

Not long after.

He then felt a scalding current of energy within his body begin to travel along a fixed path.

Starting from the abdomen, following a simple route through the limbs and back, it eventually returns to the lower abdomen.

As the cycle came to an end, Shen Yi suddenly felt a resistance.

Is this the barrier between realms?

Shen Yi's heart stirred, and he let his blood and qi break through this barrier.

In an instant.

He was jolted.

I felt my body trembling violently, as if I was undergoing some kind of cleansing, gradually stimulating my inner potential.

Soon, the commotion subsided, and Shen Yi felt his qi and blood gather in his dantian, condensing into a single mass, no longer as scattered as before.

Become!

Qi and Blood Realm, First Level!

"Big brother, you did it?"

yard.

Shen Kun and Shen Yuan were waiting with great anticipation.

Upon seeing Shen Yi open his eyes, the two immediately moved closer.

"Yes, we've finally entered the Qi and Blood Realm." Shen Yi looked at the two of them and smiled.

He slowly stretched out his limbs, feeling the power coming from his muscles and bones, and a satisfied look appeared on his face.

After becoming a cultivator, his physical abilities improved significantly.

If he were to face that nearly demon-like wild boar again, he was confident that he could kill it while preserving himself!
