Chapter 195: Chapter 121 Gu Jingang’s Thoughts! "The secret technique of the Fire Worship Cult?" Gu Sheng’s eyes showed a hint of seriousness. When he had slain the four Fire Worship Cultists earlier, the Martial Artist at the Perfect Blood Refining Realm had unleashed a wave of power. Though it hadn’t caused much of a stir on Gu Sheng’s end, it had left a lasting impression. Truth be told, when dealing with ordinary Martial Artists of the same realm, that tall, burly man in black might indeed have caught them off guard. Gu Sheng opened the manual with a trace of anticipation. Moments later, he slowly raised his head. A hint of excitement appeared in his eyes. "The so-called Blood Activation Skill is essentially locking away a portion of Qi Blood Power on a daily basis, enhancing its vitality through a special method, and unleashing it at critical moments to amplify one’s strength." "Simply put, it temporarily enhances the quality of a portion of Qi Blood Power by one level, and after the burst, it returns to its original state." Gu Sheng roughly understood the principle behind the secret technique. "According to the manual, if one masters the technique to the Perfect realm, they could lock away fifty percent of their Qi Blood Power, and upon unleashing it, elevate their strength by half a level!" He was somewhat astonished. This kind of secret technique is indeed powerful, making him realize the deep reserves of the Fire Worship Cult. If even a mere peripheral member could wield such a potent technique, one could only imagine how formidable the core members must be. Gu Sheng silently warned himself to act more cautiously in the future. Currently, in Canghe County, he could leverage various Martial Arts techniques and special realm advantages to easily slay Martial Artists of the same level—sometimes even surpassing realms for combat. But once he ventured into a more prosperous martial world, the same might not hold true, as many Martial Artists would also have powerful techniques, even secret techniques similar to the Blood Activation Skill. Nevertheless, he had no intention of discarding the skill out of fear. Although the Blood Activation Skill originated from the Fire Worship Cult and should not be used lightly, it could potentially save his life as a hidden trump card. With his abundant Qi Blood Power, locking away a portion wouldn’t significantly impact his combat strength. After taking stock of his gains, a faint smile crept onto Gu Sheng’s lips. With three Bone Protecting Pills in hand, the next period would allow him to focus on his cultivation for some time. For at least the next three months, he wouldn’t need to worry about acquiring Bone Protecting Pills. Gu Sheng could dedicate time to diligently accumulating experience while silently observing the situation. The following days. Gu Sheng’s life returned to order, with the addition of the Blood Activation Skill to his training regimen. His schedule became tighter than ever. With Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique included, he now had five Martial Arts techniques to practice. Luckily, the Flying Thunder Leg was nearing advancement into the special realm. Once that happens, he’ll have more time to train his other techniques. As for his bone tempering progress, it steadily improved. With the aid of the Bone Protecting Pills, Gu Sheng’s advantage of abundant Qi Blood Power came to full play, allowing him to temper bones at a speed far beyond the norm. Moreover, he discovered that the Blood Activation Skill also provided some assistance in bone tempering. Higher quality Qi Blood Power resulted in more efficient bone tempering. At Helian Tie Lan’s side, Gu Sheng occasionally visited. Firstly, to lend a hand. Though he couldn’t directly assist with the material refinement process, he could help save time in other areas, accelerating the progress of the heavy armor’s forging. Secondly, he seized the opportunity to gain experience in Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique during his visits. Though in the short term Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique couldn’t surpass Helian Tie Lan’s expertise or provide significant assistance to Gu Sheng, persistence was key. Eventually, when Helian’s Weapon Casting Technique reached the Perfect realm, it would prove immensely helpful. ... Gu’s Manor ancestral hall. At this moment, only two people stood there. One was an energetic elderly man with white hair and white beard, none other than the Gu family’s Great Clan Elder. The other was a muscular bald giant—currently the Gu family’s number one expert—Gu Jingang. However, at this moment. The atmosphere carried a subtle tension. "Great Clan Elder, Jingang requests permission to use the clan’s stored Blood Strengthening Pill!" Gu Jingang’s body slightly bowed as he spoke respectfully, but his tone carried an underlying assertiveness. Back then, four Blood Strengthening Pills had been refined using blood from a demon wolf. One was given to Gu Changming, one to Gu Jingang, and the one originally designated for Gu Dajiang was ultimately reassigned to Gu Xiaojiang. The remaining pill was kept by the clan as a reserve. Last year, when the Bloodsucking Demon Fox wreaked havoc, Gu’s Manor reported the situation, prompting Liu Yuanhu’s successful pill refinement. As a result, he did not disappoint the Gu family and allocated two pills from Ge Qing’s batch to the Gu family. Although the Blood Strengthening Pill costs less than one thousand taels and is within the Gu family’s financial capability, such precious resources are invaluable—rarely available on the market. Previously, the black market auction occasionally offered some, while Ge Qing, the Pill Master, would occasionally release a few—but they were challenging to acquire. Without sufficient strength, one shouldn’t even entertain the thought. Thus, the Gu family had only accumulated three Blood Strengthening Pills so far. The Great Clan Elder’s gaze fixed firmly on Gu Jingang. Based on typical procedure, if Gu Jingang wanted to request the Blood Strengthening Pill, he would need to report to the elders for deliberation, followed by holding a clan meeting for a vote. It clearly wasn’t appropriate to bypass these steps and directly approach the Great Clan Elder, making this move somewhat presumptuous. "Jingang, you’ve overstepped." The Great Clan Elder’s calm voice rang, causing Gu Jingang’s face to stiffen. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth: "Great Clan Elder, Jingang understands that this request diverges from clan protocol, but time presses urgently. The situation in Canghe County is changing rapidly; the Black Sand Gang and Liu Yuanhu could clash at any moment."
