After dinner.
Su Xi, fearing that Li Cang would go for an afternoon nap after eating, supervised him to the training room.
As they passed the administration building, a sudden whooshing sound came from high above.
Before the two could look up, a burly figure descended from the sky, seemingly with the force of thunder, yet landing as lightly as a feather in front of the administration building.
The man was as burly as an iron tower, his appearance like a sharpened blade, his eyes as cold and deep as an abyss. He wore four silver-white rings on his right hand and carried a black single-shoulder bag.
"Wow! Sen Luo!" Su Xi exclaimed.
"Who is that?"
Li Cang had some impression of the name, but not much.
"You don't know Sen Luo? He's the famous Night Chasing War God of Xiyuan City, a master of the Ming Dynasty realm! He graduated from our school!"
Su Xi excitedly ran over, nervously and hastily pulling out a pen and paper.
"Senior Sen Luo, could you please give me an autograph?"
"Of course, no problem."
Sen Luo's appearance was stern, but his personality was very gentle. He grinned, even appearing somewhat simple and honest, without any pretense.
He bent down to sign for Su Xi, then chuckled as he looked at Li Cang beside him, "Junior, do you want an autograph too?"
"Oh, no need for an autograph."

Li Cang waved his hand to decline, but then extended his hand towards him, his face full of innocence, "Senior, do you have any rare treasures that replenish Origin Qi and blood? Could you lend them to me, please?"
“???”
Su Xi's eyes widened.
What kind of ultimate social butterfly is this?
Didn't you just meet Senior Sen Luo?
Who asks to borrow things the first time they meet someone?
"Uh…"
Completely caught off guard, Sen Luo also froze.
After graduation, he had met many strangers. He had encountered many who immediately started fighting, but Li Cang was the first to ask him to borrow something right away.
If it were an unfamiliar stranger, he would definitely not bother to acknowledge them. If he were in a bad mood, he might even give them a few slaps—'Who do you think you are? Are you giving me face?'
But.
Li Cang was his junior.
With the person standing in front of him, opening his mouth, extending his hand, and grinning, no matter how stingy or miserly he was, he had to take out something to show his appreciation.
"Uh, Senior came in a hurry and didn't bring anything good…"
Sen Luo's forehead broke out in a sweat. He rummaged through his pockets and backpack, then pulled out a gold-patterned neck guard and handed it to Li Cang.
"I really don't have anything to replenish Origin Qi and blood. This is a small item for detoxification. You can take it and play with it; you don't need to return it, haha, goodbye."
Sen Luo finished speaking at an extremely fast pace, gave two awkward laughs, and then strode into the administration building, afraid that other students would see and imitate him.
Su Xi, standing beside him, was dumbfounded, feeling a mix of speechlessness and indignation.
Wow! How disgusting!
Did he just beg from him?
Is this the benefit of having a thick skin?
If only I had known, I would have…
Forget it, I really can't bring myself to do it.
"Huh?"
Li Cang lightly exclaimed, looking at the gold-patterned neck guard in his hand, which was full of technological content. He found that the illusory light screen automatically appraised it—
【nano detoxification neck guard SPW Model: Produced by the Caesar Empire of the Purple Thorn Starfield. A high-tech detoxification device integrating efficient absorption, deep analysis, and extreme purification.】
【Function: Can extract biological blood, remove toxins, heavy metals, radioactive particles, and other harmful substances from the blood, then return the blood to the organism.】
【Remaining Energy: 86%】
"Sucking blood, detoxifying, transfusing blood…"
Looking at the function description, a thought suddenly popped into Li Cang's mind, and he eagerly ran to the training room.
Su Xi supervised Li Cang into the training room and then left, throwing out a remark before she departed: "Don't be lazy, I'll check your training progress tomorrow!"
Li Cang sat cross-legged and put on the nano detoxification neck guard.
"Buzz!"
He activated the switch, and a holographic projection appeared.
The detoxification collar didn't have many functions, and its operation was very simple. Li Cang figured it out in a few minutes.
This thing is mainly used for detoxification, and the process is—
First, it extracts blood from the neck's blood vessels.
Then, it uses nanotechnology to remove toxins.
Finally, it transfuses the blood back, and it can also repair wounds when finished.
It can be seen as high-tech automatic blood washing.
But Li Cang's idea was—if he ignored the detoxification function, this thing's ability to suck blood and then transfuse it seemed to perfectly align with his Bloodletting Breathing Technique.
"Beep!"
The detoxification collar had five settings. He tried turning on the lowest setting.
The next moment, he only felt a stinging pain in his neck as the detoxification collar pierced into his carotid artery.
The detoxification collar began to draw blood.
Li Cang also began to breathe.
Three breaths in, three breaths out, Origin Qi entered his body.
A few seconds later.
The result surprised him greatly.
The Origin Qi circulation speed was even faster than his first experiment, when he had cut two wounds on his arm, reaching two seconds per cycle.
"It really works!"
Li Cang couldn't help but exclaim.
From now on, he could use it for long periods of bloodletting breathing, and the key was that it eliminated the fatal drawback of "too much bloodletting possibly leading to weakness and shock."
In addition, its super-efficient detoxification function also offered immense benefits, complementing the "expelling turbidity, transforming miasma, and releasing impurities" of the three breaths.
After a moment of breathing.
Li Cang's progress was incredibly fast.
But he still felt it wasn't enough.
"Beep!"
He adjusted the detoxification collar to the second setting, and the Origin Qi circulation speed surged again.
Once he fully adapted to the second setting, he continued to adjust it to the third setting.
Then came the fourth setting… and the fifth setting…
After the fifth setting, the outside of the detoxification collar swelled into a circle, full of blood, vibrating slightly and emitting a buzzing sound.
At this moment.
Its blood-sucking speed reached an astonishing level—
If there were no blood transfusion step, it would have sucked Li Cang dry in less than three seconds.
At the same time.
The Origin Qi array plate in the training room was also operating at high speed.
Because Li Cang's Origin Qi absorption and circulation speed were too fast, the Origin Qi concentration in the training room quickly decreased.
The Origin Qi array plate could detect the room's Origin Qi concentration, and once it dropped below a certain threshold, it would increase Origin Qi release.
At this moment, the Origin Qi array plate was operating almost at full capacity, continuously releasing dense Origin Qi.
If Li Cang's body was a severely congested highway before.
Then at this moment, every car was like it had a rocket engine installed, speeding orderly at an astonishing and terrifying pace.
Oh ho, taking off!
Li Cang felt incredibly comfortable all over.
Origin Qi could circulate dozens of cycles within one second.
And his Yuan Gang Breathing Technique also skyrocketed as if on a rocket, from 29% beginner… to 35% beginner… to 43% beginner… to 55% beginner…
His cultivation realm also gradually climbed from Form Condensation Stage Three.
He didn't know how much time passed like this.
When the Origin Qi throughout his body reached its peak, like the clouds parting to reveal the sun, he easily broke through that ultimate restriction.
Li Cang opened his eyes.
He had broken through!
He stopped breathing, turned off the detoxification collar, and all the blood was transfused back into his body.
Li Cang only felt extremely mentally exhausted, as if he hadn't slept for days and nights. He glanced at the time; it was already past eight in the evening.
He summoned the illusory light screen to check his personal information.
【Cultivation Realm: Tempering Yuan Stage One】
【Overall Quality: 18 (Physique 7, Agility 4, Resilience 4, Spirit 3)】
【Exclusive Destiny: Path of Idealism (Stage One 9/1000)】
【Cultivation Method: Yuan Gang Breathing Technique (Stage One 1%)】
【Martial Arts Skills: None】
【Spell Talents: None】
His cultivation realm had risen from Form Condensation to Tempering Yuan.
His overall quality had increased from 13 to 18 points.
His Yuan Gang Breathing Technique had increased from 26% beginner to 1% Stage One.
He was not surprised by these improvements. As a special sacred body that had mastered the secrets of cultivation, his cultivation advancement speed should naturally far exceed that of ordinary people.
However, upon seeing Path of Idealism, he couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.
"How did the Path of Idealism experience points increase to 9 points?"
"I didn't do anything idealistic, though."
Li Cang was very puzzled.
