Back inside the cave where Zhao Ling was, he had now finished making a liquid that would be useful to him now.
"Linzi Liquid, a liquid that is useful for increasing body and bone strength, I didn't expect that the liquid from my experiment would be useful to me now," Zhao Ling muttered while shaking his head. Yes, Linzi Liquid was a creation of his own. This liquid was very useful for novice martial artists because it could strengthen the body and bones, but this liquid would no longer be useful for master martial artists.
"Hmm, if my strength was enough, I would prefer to take the blood of a demonic beast so that my body would develop quickly," muttered Zhao Ling. Yes, the blood and flesh of demonic beasts were very useful for martial artists to increase their cultivation. Not only that, but demon gems were also very useful for increasing the energy circle within a martial artist's dantian. However, usually, martial artists only dared to absorb a few gems a year because if they overdo it, there would be changes in the human body's form, such as resembling the demonic beast whose demon gems they absorbed. But that didn't apply to Zhao Ling because he could absorb as many demon gems as he wanted without feeling any side effects. This was also Zhao Ling's secret.
Back to Zhao Ling, he had now drank the Linzi Liquid and began to absorb it and circulate its benefits throughout his body without missing anything. Zhao Ling continued to do this until five hours later, and he used up ten bottles of Linzi Liquid to strengthen his body and bones to accommodate natural energy.
"Hmm, ten bottles of Linzi Liquid are used up, and my body's strength has increased to the early master realm, so now I can increase my cultivation. But this time I will do it slowly. I don't want to do it like my previous life where I was obsessed with strength and forgot my foundation, and in the end, I ended up under Heavenly Law," muttered Zhao Ling, making a plan.
"Besides, with the guidance of that ancient cultivation technique, I'm sure I can increase my strength whenever, so I'm not too worried," muttered Zhao Ling.
"Don't worry, my friend, I will fulfill your promise to that shameless woman. I still have three months left. At least I will reach the Grand Master realm," Zhao Ling muttered to himself. Yes, the previous owner of the body had a promise to a woman named Ye Hu. She was a genius woman from the Ye Clan in the capital who was engaged to Zhao Ling by the Ye Clan Patriarch when they were children. But when Zhao Ling was declared unable to become a martial artist, and Ye Hu managed to awaken a strong ice element, attracting the attention of the Ice Sect Master, because of this, Ye Hu broke off the engagement unilaterally. Even Ye Hu's father had opposed his child's wish to cancel the engagement, but the girl did not listen.
Feeling humiliated, Zhao Ling challenged Ye Hu to a fight in the Eastern Heaven Empire Arena three years from that time. Now Zhao Ling was still 12 years old, and three years later he would be fifteen years old, so Zhao Ling wanted to humiliate that woman for insulting him as trash in front of many people, and that made him a laughing stock in Wunzen City.
Back to Zhao Ling, he was now sitting cross-legged and focusing on drawing in natural energy with his cultivation technique, and slowly but surely, natural energy entered his body, and gradually, more and more natural energy entered his body.
Time passed, and five hours passed unnoticed, and from within Zhao Ling's body, a muffled sound was heard once.
Boom!
The sound was heard from within Zhao Ling's body, but Zhao Ling didn't immediately open his eyes. He focused again on absorbing energy to strengthen his cultivation foundation. He didn't want to be like before, hastily increasing his cultivation which caused him to die under Heavenly Law.
Five hours passed again, and Zhao Ling then opened his eyes, and he clenched his fists and muttered.
"I haven't felt this feeling in a long time, 1-star Novice Martial Artist. Even though it's still the beginning of everything, with the experience and perfect basic techniques I learned before, I can match five levels above me. Now I won't be in a hurry anymore. It's better for me to strengthen my body to the extreme point so that I can increase my cultivation without obstacles. Since I've become a martial artist, now's the time for me to explore the outside of this forest, and the first one is this cave. For some reason, I feel like there's something valuable inside," Zhao Ling said to himself. He then stood up and patted his clothes because there was a lot of dust on them.
Zhao Ling then walked into the cave, remaining vigilant. He didn't want anything bad to happen to him. He used the torch he made as a light for his path in the cave.
Zhao Ling walked for quite a long time and still hadn't reached the end of the cave.
"Damn, how deep is this cave? Even after half an hour of walking, I still haven't reached the end," Zhao Ling muttered, but he was determined to explore the cave.
Meanwhile, at the Zhao Clan residence, there was sadness because Yun Li fell ill when she heard the news of the discovery of a young man's mangled body on the edge of the Dark Forest. This made Yun Li faint, and her health declined. Because Zhao Ling had been missing for five days and was not found, coupled with the circulating news, Yun Li's health declined.
Meanwhile, in a large sect, one young man and one woman were seen sparring. They were none other than Zhao Feng and Zhao Bing, who were Zhao Ling's two older siblings.
"That's enough, Big Brother. I can't take it anymore," said Zhao Bing. After all, their strength was one level apart. After Zhao Bing entered the sect, he became a 9-star Master Martial Artist. This shocked the entire sect, and Zhao Bing was declared the most genius disciple and became a direct disciple of the sect patriarch. Not only that, Zhao Bing's realm was now only one level below Zhao Feng.
"Alright, Second Sister. I think that's enough for today," said Zhao Feng with a smile, and then they sat down to rest. But Zhao Bing's face was always gloomy, which made Zhao Feng curious.
"What's wrong, Second Sister? Why are you always gloomy lately?" asked Zhao Feng, seeing his little sister always looking downcast.
"I don't know, Big Brother. I feel like something happened to our little brother and Mother," said Zhao Bing sadly. This made Zhao Feng speechless. He actually felt the same way, but he didn't want to show it to his little sister.
