Martial Research Master

“As expected, although most of the power is being absorbed either by your cultivation base or the acupoint, there is still a big loss of energy.”

Long Tao was getting nervous. He only had two beast cores to draw the flame from. He can’t let there be too must wastage. “Do you have any technique to help me control the flow of energy?”

“The Crimson lords weren’t a major body cultivating group. The only knowledge I have regarding body cultivation was from the scriptures and written documents left by the previous owners. The very few who did walk a bit on the body cultivation path didn’t go any further than their tertiary meridians. I could even say that in terms of body cultivation, you probably are the one who has come farthest.”

“You do understand that this complement doesn’t help me get over my nerves. I am even more nervous than before.”

While whining about the fact, a sudden idea spurted with Long Tao’s mind. “What if I use the weapon tempering arts?”

“The core problem with weapon tempering art was the fact that it couldn’t be utilized unless you know the exact location of the acupoints. It was the reason you couldn’t move any forward after opening all the acupoint listed within the scriptures. That is until today when one of the elemental acupoints decided to react.”

“I guess I can let the fire energy identify the points first, and then begin utilizing the Weapon’s tempering art.”

“As I pointed out earlier, the art can’t be utilized without proper knowledge about the exact location. Even now, the point that reacts first to the energy doesn’t seem to be the reallocation. Only after the full opening could you mark the exact location of the acupoint.”

.....

“What if I just utilize the art to concentrate on the point which does react. Although the energy would still be wasted, the quantity should be less than before.”

On gaining a nod from the Keeper, Qin Weng began to continue the procedure in that way.

.................................................................

The huge amount of fire energy was creating internal injuries within QIN Weng’s Qi vein. Although Su Menqi’s frost energy didn’t serve its original purpose, it was still being absorbed by Qin Weng’s body to heal the meridians. The surprising fact was that the rate of consumption was alarming.

Soon enough Su Menqi felt her body to have nearly drained to its limit and hence instantly consumed a Qi rejuvenation pill given by Lu Ming. Qin Weng’s body was left to its own means to deal with the fire energy until she finally managed to recover and restart the supply.

“It is the same training regime which you asked me to follow with soul energy.” Long Tao pointed out to the hall master within the artifact.

“The same rule applies to every single aspect of cultivation. Although doing it in general looks like wastage of resources, if you look carefully, she would be able to regulate her energy more skilfully and her Qi storage vessel increased incapacity.”

“The effects are not visible as of now, but wait for the process to complete, and you will feel the difference in power.”

“You should concentrate on providing energy to Qin Weng’s body when she is recovering her Qi. I advise you to use some ice herbs extracts and Crimson world Qi.”

After a brief instant Su Menqi was back in the game. The Number of pills being consumed increased drastically. The original estimation didn’t even last halfway through the process. Lu Ming gave Su Menqi three more bottles. Although Su Menqi was surprised by Lu Ming’s generosity, she didn’t know the real truth behind the scenes. After all the investment was being returned in form of increasing strength.

......???....................................................

Long Tao decided to give the other core to Qin Weng. Since he was already in the midst of doing the task, he should just continue with it. Whatever happens, would be left for fate to decide.

After another two days, the process finally ended with both the energy cores being consumed and Qin Weng still immersed in meditation, getting acquainted with his newly acquired energy medium.

Su Menqi decided to take a short break from the tedious process.” You have done quite well. I hope we are successful in obtaining the actual objective behind coming to this forest.” The couple shared another intimate moment with each other.

.........................................................................

“I would give my best to help sister Su with her mission. It is the least I could do for the favors she bestowed on me.” Qin Weng was finally awake.

Long Tao was extremely interested in knowing the results. He instructed Qin Weng to try and exert the beast flame. Qin Weng raised his hands and closed his eyes. His actions were similar to someone trying to conjure something. ‘Arrar’ A small ball of flame appeared in the midst of his palm.

Although the ball was small, it raided an immense amount of pressure which easily dominated the feeling brought by flame salamander’s beast fire.

“I guess it stands at the top for a proven reason.”

..............................................................

A day later-

The beast hunt was already midway through its completion and the group of four already managed to get their hands on a large number of corpse and cores. Although the prize was yet to be unveiled, given the risk involved it was sure to be somewhat attractive.

The group was currently following the trails of an ice-element beast. Beast had a much higher affinity with nature and could sense even small amounts of elemental energy. Hence the group decided to stop hunting and follow the trail of a large group of frost wolves. This was a large furry beast that lived within the cold reasons of the Kemono plains. They must have their base built near to an ice element source.

Although it was a long shot, the group decided to stick till the end, and it did pay off. The beast led them to the foot of a snowy range of mountains which spread across an unimaginable distance.

“We are in accordance with the path described in the map given to us by your mother. I guess our bet did pay off. The map from this mountain is quite detailed.”

The natural habitat corresponding with the requirement of the frost spring was naturally much higher than the mountain range. Once the group managed to climb to the top, Long Tao asked Su Menqi to concentrate and try to on sensing the environment.

“I will help amplify your senses so that you can clearly inspect the surroundings. It depends on you as of now.” He simply picked her up and began transferring energy into her body. Although the sudden act of intimacy made Su Menqi blush, she soon calmed her sense and closed her eyes.

“I could sense a slight distortion of climate in that direction.” As the group proceeded in the pointed region, they began to feel the changes in here. The snow was still present, but the humidity seems to have risen. Yet there was no entrance in the view of the group.

..........................................................

Another day later-

“I guess we are just lost within these ranges. I couldn’t find a single clue nearby. All the signs indicate that the spring must be in this location, but where is it.”

Qin Weng decided to lie down on the floor. An instant later, he suddenly jolted up and attached his ears to the floor. “I could hear a faint sound of water flowing below.” The other three instantly rushed to the location.

He conjured his flame up and began melting the ice below their feet. The film broke and the group of four fell down the hole.
