Chapter 31 Tempering the Body in Lion Spring
After the door closed, President Zhang said with a smile, “Qin Yun, you have good control over your inner Qi!”
Headmaster Zhang was dressed in grey and looked like a small old man. However, he was very powerful. Qin Yun’s small maneuver of spinning the wheel could not be hidden from his experienced and knowledgeable eyes.
“Principal, I didn’t break the rules, right?” Qin Yun stuck out his tongue as he was somewhat worried that his second martial soul would be exposed.
“Not really! Even if it’s against the rules, I will still give you the Wind Slasher Spell. ” President Zhang laughed. “You are indeed a rare genius. You are much better than that new Crown Prince!” I was just about to intervene and stop Wei Xuankong, but to think that you would reach 5th stage just now. It is truly surprising! ”
Qin Yun said with gratitude, “Thank you for your kindness!”
Principal Zhang stopped in his tracks, turned around, and asked with a stern expression, “How much do you know about your royal father’s matters?”
Qin Yun immediately frowned. “Father really went berserk?”
Principal Zhang’s expression was filled with surprise as he asked, “Who told you this?”
“Qin Deren!” Qin Yun told President Zhang how he had gone through his sparring match with Qin Deren.
Hearing this, Principal Zhang reprimanded him harshly, “The Duke of Qin always wanted to usurp the throne, which is why he was kept so far away. You actually believed his son’s lies? After so many years, have you still not grown up? ”
Qin Yun did not know where this President Zhang came from. It was as though he was rather concerned about him.
He nodded and said in a low voice, “I was careless. I will be more careful in the future!”
Principal Zhang let out a long sigh and continued to walk forward. “A few years ago, your Imperial Father made a mistake when he was trying to break through to the Martial Dao Realm. His cultivation went berserk. He was no longer in the Imperial Palace, so he had hidden away to heal his injuries. But in the Heavenly Qin Imperial Palace, many of the old officials thought that he was finished, especially the Empress and the others, who were anxious to ascend the throne.
Qin Yun had previously blamed his father. Now, he knew that his father could not protect him because he had encountered great difficulties. This made his emotions extremely complicated.
“Don’t think too much into it right now. Just focus on raising your strength. There are many empress’s people in the Hua Ling Martial Arts School, but you don’t have to be afraid of them with me here. ”
At the end of the hall, Principal Zhang opened a door carved with a golden lion. “You may enter. The Celestial Lion Lake is inside.” Remember, soak in the pool. If you can’t take it anymore, come out immediately. Don’t try to be brave! ”
The stone room that the Celestial Lion Lake was in fact very simple and crude, as though it was inside a cave. It was in stark contrast to the luxurious decorations on the outside.
The interior was not big, and the walls were filled with bright white flames.
In the middle of the pond was a two meter wide pool. The water inside was like blood and bubbling, as if it was boiling!
“I’ll wait for you outside!” President Zhang patted Qin Yun on the shoulder. “Remember, if you can’t take it, come out quickly.”
Qin Yun nodded and walked in with nervousness and excitement.
After the door closed, he quickly took off his clothes and stepped into the mysterious Heavenly Lion Lake!
Just as he entered the pool, he was scalded to the point of letting out a low groan. When he circulated his inner Qi throughout his entire body, he felt that there was nothing left!
“How did the Celestial Lion Pool form?” Qin Yun scooped up some red water, but he could not figure it out.
Suddenly, he felt waves of scorching energy quickly enter his body and seep into his flesh and bones. It was very inconceivable!
“Teacher has told me before that I should try to open up all of the meridians in my body in the Heaven Lion Lake!” He immediately closed his eyes and relaxed his entire body, allowing the scalding energy to flow through his body.
There were many meridians in the human body, which was equivalent to channels for the flow of inner Qi. However, many of his meridians were blocked by various factors.
Normally, it would be difficult to detect a blockage, and he wouldn’t be able to sense any effects. However, if he wanted his inner Qi to circulate at full speed throughout his entire body, he would need to open up all of them.
After opening up all of his meridians, he would be able to use inner Qi to rapidly spread throughout his body, nourishing his flesh and bones, strengthening his body and soul, and strengthening his soul!
In the late stage of the Martial Body Stage, the most important thing was to cultivate the body.
Only with a sufficiently powerful fleshly body could he absorb the power of the great Dao and step into the Dao of Martial Dao Realm!
Thus, in the late stage of the Martial Body cultivation, one would gradually feel that because their meridians were blocked, it would be difficult to cultivate a perfect Martial Body. At that time, if he tried to forcefully open his meridians, he would injure his meridians. It was already too late.
“It doesn’t hurt, and it feels very comfortable!” Qin Yun felt as though he was soaking in hot water that was just right for him. There was no pain like in the legends.
The warm current that entered his body quickly spread throughout his body, flowing through every part of his body. This kind of warm stimulation made him feel that it was the most comfortable enjoyment in his life!
“If this goes on, I will definitely be able to link all of my meridians!” He could clearly feel whether or not his own flesh and blood had been nourished and refined, especially in the area of blood energy.
The engraver’s requirements for physique were very high.
He had learned from the books that when he was carving strange patterns, he needed to have sufficient blood energy, psychic power, and internal energy to fuse them together into the power of his Blood Soul. Then, he would condense it onto his carving knife to inscribe mysterious runes.
If one had to refine it with attributes, they would need to integrate all kinds of Martial Spirits. It was extremely complicated.
“With my current circulation speed, I should be able to condense inner strength. As soon as I go out, I will start learning the mysterious patterns.” Qin Yun had already made his plans.
Even though he possessed the Nine Yang Divine Spirit, he was still lacking in resources. Moreover, he had two Martial Spirits and needed to raise two Inner Yuan s. He had to earn more by himself.
… ….
President Zhang waited outside the stone door. After waiting for an entire day, Qin Yun did not come out. This made him secretly anxious.
That was because, according to his prediction, he should be almost out.
He could only continue to wait, not trusting others to watch over him.
In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed ….
“It’s been seven days!” Outside the door, Principal Zhang sighed with a face full of shock. “Others can only stay in the Celestial Lion Lake for two to three days at most. Qin Yun hasn’t come out for seven days. What a sinister fellow!”
He would release his psyche force tomorrow to investigate Qin Yun’s exuberant life force. If not, he would have charged in long ago.
“Principal, Teacher Yang is here again!” A black clothed elder walked in and said, “She was extremely anxious and said that she wanted to see you!”
Principal Zhang’s eyes lit up. “Let her in!”
“Yes sir!” After the black clothed elder left, he very quickly brought Yang Shiyue in and left.
“Dean, is Qin Yun still inside?” These past seven days, she had been very worried.
President Zhang nodded and said, “Teacher Yang, Qin Yun is doing very well. His vitality is vigorous, so you need not worry about him.” “It’s great that you’re here now. Help me wait for him here, I still have a lot of things to take care of!”
“Alright!” Yang Shiyue used her spiritual force to investigate and indeed, she sensed Qin Yun’s exuberant aura of life. Immediately, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Principal Zhang was very much at ease with Yang Shiyue, so he left in peace to busy himself with his own matters.
