20 -20: Consecutive Breakthroughs
The Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique is divided into three levels, or rather, Ye Zhen had only obtained three levels of the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique from Liao Feibai.
Upon mastering the first level, one can undergo Marrow Cleansing and Body Refining, significantly increasing the physical strength of the cultivator.
Reaching the second level, due to the extremely vigorous essence blood, generates Qi Gang, which can cut through metal and jade if used to attack and is tough enough to resist swords and spears if used defensively.
If one could cultivate the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique to the third level, they would be able to condense a drop of True Yuan and touch the threshold of the True Essence Realm.
It seems very powerful, though the specific grade is unknown.
However, Ye Zhen thought that the technique provided by a Sect instructor would not be of low grade, regardless.
However, Ye Zhen felt that Manager Zhao’s recommendation to Instructor Liao was not as simple as it seemed on the surface and that there were hidden reasons behind it, but what those were, Ye Zhen could not tell.
Nevertheless, one thing Ye Zhen was absolutely sure of was that if he failed to meet Instructor Liao’s expectations in a month, his fate would be very, very grim.
So, after returning from Instructor Liao’s place, Ye Zhen didn’t bother with anything else and devoted himself entirely to cultivating the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique that Instructor Liao had passed onto him.
On the couch, Ye Zhen sat cross-legged, and in his body, the blood qi surged like waves, progressing in a specific manner, where the primary focus of the first stage of the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique was Blood Refining and Body Tempering.
That is, making the blood qi within the meridians more compact and pure, and using this purified blood qi to temper the bones and meridians, thereby strengthening oneself.
If Liao Feibai were here, he would have found that the blood qi inside Ye Zhen’s body was naturally refined.
With a slight transformation of the technique, the essence blood tempering would be completed.
Furthermore, the already refined blood qi, after undergoing the first step of tempering by the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique, became even more refined when it passed through the Mirage Dragon Pearl in Ye Zhen’s chest.
The just-opened first spatial stage of the Mirage Dragon Pearl was like a precision machine, refining any quality of blood qi that passed through it to make it purer and more refined.
Thus, what was the most difficult refinement of blood qi for others turned into the easiest, almost naturally concluded task for Ye Zhen.
The only thing Ye Zhen lacked was abundant blood qi, which he needed to accumulate over time.
But now, that was not a problem for Ye Zhen.
Because Ye Zhen still had ten Blood Essence Pills, the reward for ranking first in the Fish-Dragon Path, which was the allotment that Outer Disciples could only receive in fifty days.
What other Outer Disciples could only receive in fifty days, Ye Zhen consumed all within three hours.
If the elders of the Qiyun Sect knew about this, they would definitely be astonished.
Was he trying to kill himself?
A little guy at the Third Stage of Blood Training daring to consume ten Blood Essence Pills consecutively, wasn’t he afraid of exploding and dying?
In fact, Ye Zhen didn’t know this.
The reason was simple, the massive medicinal power contained in a Blood Essence Pill would take any other disciple an hour or two to refine completely.
Moreover, since all pills have a degree of toxicity, the body also needed time to detoxify.
Normally, an Outer Disciple would reach their limit by consuming two or three Blood Essence Pills a day.
And after reaching this limit, they would need several days of cultivation to detoxify before they could consume Blood Essence Pills again, otherwise, it would cause certain damage to the body.
But this wouldn’t happen to Ye Zhen.
The Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique naturally eliminated a small part of the toxicity during the refinement of the blood qi, and the remaining hidden toxicity in the blood qi would be completely refined by the Mirage Dragon Pearl when passing through the pearl’s first spatial stage.
At the same time, the Mirage Dragon Pearl acted like a refining machine, helping Ye Zhen refine the medicinal power faster.
All these factors contributed to Ye Zhen’s achievement of consuming and refining ten Blood Essence Pills within three hours.
Actually, Ye Zhen only instinctively felt that during the operation of the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique, the blood qi in his body seemed insufficient, and he wanted to supplement the blood qi through the pills.
Consuming ten Blood Essence Pills within three hours also had significant consequences.
When the medicinal power of the last Blood Essence Pill was refined by Ye Zhen, the blood qi passed through the Mirage Dragon Pearl was densely fine, almost like mercury.
“Huh!”
Breathing out a turbid breath, Ye Zhen slowly opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flitting through, and his normally flat temples, at this moment, were bulging like small packs.
“I managed to cultivate to the first level in a single day.
Is the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique much simpler than I thought?
It doesn’t seem that hard!” Ye Zhen said, blinking his eyes.
Ye Zhen abruptly stood up, the snapping and cracking of his bones violently burst forth like the popping of beans; his blood qi surged throughout his body like quicksilver, and in that instant, Ye Zhen felt as if his stature had grown by a few inches.
A flick of his finger whipped through the air like a lash, producing a booming sound.
He was enveloped by a sensation of pure power, which filled Ye Zhen with confidence.
He felt that if he were to encounter Feng Haoran or Shi Tianjia again on the Fish-Dragon Path now, he could certainly crush them effortlessly.
Ye Zhen’s bare upper body, without knowing when, was coated in a thin layer of almost white, mud-like substance.
Curiously, this mud-like layer lacked the usual foul odor, and instead carried a faint, strange fragrance.
“Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique’s first stage can achieve Marrow Cleansing and Body Refining; could it also mean that cultivation has broken through to the Fourth Stage of Blood Training?”
A tinge of doubt flashed across Ye Zhen’s mind, his fingertip lightly moving over the area above his temple, then gently tapping it.
Bang!
The swollen temple, taut as cowhide, bounced Ye Zhen’s finger high up, joy immediately appearing on his cheeks.
When blood qi is filled to the peak, it can expel the servant’s dirt from the body; when a martial artist’s blood qi reaches that peak, their temples will swell as tight as cowhide.
Fourth Stage of Blood Training!
Practicing the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique for one day, with the help of ten Blood Essence Pills, he had actually broken through to the Fourth Stage of Blood Training within a single day.
However, this was just the beginning.
The Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique that Ye Zhen had acquired consisted of three stages, each slower and more difficult than the last, and Ye Zhen no longer had resources like the ten Blood Essence Pills.
After continuously practicing for five days, Ye Zhen received the first Blood Essence Pill as an Outer Disciple, and his practice of the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique improved slightly after refining and consuming this pill.
By the tenth day, Ye Zhen had consumed the second Blood Essence Pill he had received.
Although he made some progress, it was painfully slow.
Ye Zhen estimated that without two or three months, he could not complete the second stage of the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique.
Finally, unable to restrain himself, on the evening of the tenth day, Ye Zhen returned to Hundred Pine Peak.
After seeing Sha Fei, who was making vigorous advances in his cultivation, he stayed until very late before returning; this caused Ma Yuanwu, who was still recovering at Hundred Pine Peak, to be so frightened that he dared not even leave his room.
As for Wuy Jian, Yu Ping, and others, they had been expelled from Qiyun Sect for failing the annual grand examination, not even qualifying as servant disciples anymore.
On his way back, Ye Zhen quietly went to the secluded cave behind the cliffs of Hundred Pine Peak.
Ye Zhen was fairly lucky; within these eleven days, no beasts entered the cave, and the accumulated Stone Marrow Spirit Liquid amounted to nearly half a bowl.
After setting up some measures to prevent beasts from accidentally entering, Ye Zhen quietly returned to Donglai Peak with nearly half a bowl of Stone Marrow Spirit Liquid.
During the night, Ye Zhen swallowed this small half-bowl of Stone Marrow Spirit Liquid in several doses for cultivation.
The potent energy contained in the Stone Marrow Spirit Liquid caused his cultivation to soar rapidly, also filling his body’s qi and blood to the ultimate limit.
When Ye Zhen’s temples had swelled to their limit, the last trace of white impurities mixed with a bit of blood spurted out, and a vortex of pure blood qi gradually formed in his Dantian.
Once the Blood Qi Vortex was formed, the blood qi filling Ye Zhen’s body found a way to burst forth, rushing crazily towards the Blood Qi Vortex in the Dantian.
The swollen temples gradually sunk, and the sensation of suppressed energy radiating from Ye Zhen’s body suddenly disappeared.
Hiss!
Having practiced continuously for a night and a day, Ye Zhen abruptly stood up and threw a fierce punch into the air with a crackling of his bones.
Bang!
The moment Ye Zhen’s fist halted, a door three meters away from him emitted a loud bang that gave Ye Zhen a huge startle.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the door had a hole, neither too large nor too small, exactly the size of his fist.
“Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique’s second stage?
Qi Gang Body?” Ye Zhen was overjoyed.
Just as Ye Zhen was about to fully experience the power of the second stage of the Essence Blood Primordial Body Technique, a piercing clamor suddenly erupted outside.
“Quick, look!
There’s a change in the rankings of the Heaven and Earth List, someone has entered the list!”

“The Heaven and Earth List?” Ye Zhen’s brows slightly furrowed as he inadvertently walked towards the door.
