759: C759 Sneaking into the Blood Cave

C759 Sneaking into the Blood Cave

"Alright, I hope so." Ling Xue nodded and continued, "Usually, no one comes to this secret room. You can rest here first."

"I'll get someone to clean up a guest room for you."

Hearing Ling Xue's words, Ah Ji waved his hand and said, "No need to prepare the guest room, I can just meditate here."

The two of them chatted for a while longer. Seeing that Ah Ji insisted on not needing the guest room, Ling Xue had no choice but to give up.

After Ling Xue left, Ah Ji directly swallowed his Blood Cheese.

The taste of the Blood Ganoderma was not very good. As soon as it entered his mouth, a faint smell of blood came out, but it was extremely effective. It was different from the essence of the four medicinal herbs; the moment the Blood Ganoderma entered his mouth, it turned into a thick juice that flowed down his throat.

Boom!" An extremely strong medicinal force exploded in his body, the Nameless Devil Art immediately started circulating, frantically absorbing the medicinal force of the Blood Ganoderma.

Ah Ji did not hesitate, and directly swallowed all of the Blood Ganoderma in three to five bites, then took the initiative to circulate Nameless Devil Art, absorbing the medicinal force into his meridian channels to strengthen his body.

In the early stages of body refining, the first thing to do was to refine the skin in the tendons and bones.

Ah Ji's arms had already been tempered a thousand times. As the medicinal strength was absorbed, the skin on his fists gradually turned black, followed by his neck. However, the color stopped changing when it reached above the neck.

The medicinal strength began to disperse towards his abdomen. Only by repeatedly tempering every inch of his body would he be able to complete the first step of body refining, and step into the middle stage of body refining.

The Blood Ganoderma was strong in terms of medicinal properties, but it could only help Ah Ji refine half of his skin. At the most critical parts, such as his internal organs and head, it was unable to succeed.

These places were the most vulnerable, so if he wanted to temper these places, he would need far too much strength.

Ah Ji estimated that if he wanted to temper his entire body, he would need at least three Blood Ganoderma. This Blood Ganoderma was extremely precious, one was Ling Xue's limit. It was obviously impossible for her to take out three more.

It was getting dark, and neither Ling Xuan nor Ling Xue bothered Ah Ji any longer.

After eating his fill, Ah Ji left the secret room under the cover of the night.

He wanted to go to the legendary Blood Cave and see how magical it was that it could contain the Blood Ganoderma.

In fact, Ah Ji wanted to find something that could speed up his cultivation. Although he couldn't use the Blood Sesame, but other things like the Blood Nourishing Ganoderma, even if he moved some, it wouldn't matter.

After all, this was just for safety's sake. If he could transform all of the skin on his body and enter the middle stage of the Body Refinement Realm in advance, then the chances of him protecting other people from entering the Sword Hall would increase even more.

In short, everything was for the sake of entering Sword Hall, helping Ling Family and saving Xiejia Village.

Soon, Ah Ji left the backyard.

He wasn't sure if the Blood Cave was truly a mysterious place, so he circled around the entire Ling Family, and finally found a place with heavy soldiers guarding it.

In the entire ten kilometer radius of the Ling Family, only this place was guarded. Everyone else had already rested, and only here, there were still fluorescent lights.

However, although there were guards here, their vigilance was not high. Due to the dark and windy night, most of the people had entered the tent. Only a few people were still outside, chatting and farting.

Ah Ji entered it easily. This was indeed an underground cave, but it was outside of Ah Ji's expectations. It was not as he had imagined; there was blood everywhere.

At the end of the catacombs was a huge cave with a mountain spring within.

However, this spring water was slightly red, and it did look like blood was flowing. However, the smell of this spring water was very strange, and it did not want the smell of blood to reach the sky.

And in the center of this red spring water, on a rock that was covered with aquatic plants, there were several stalks of blood-red Ganoderma growing all over the place.

"What kind of water is this?" Ah Ji muttered and fished out some red spring water.

However, the moment his hand touched the red spring water, the Nameless Devil Art immediately started to circulate. A faint tearing force appeared on the surface of Ah Ji's body, causing traces of blood-like red threads to appear in the red spring water.

As the red thread condensed, the spring water gradually became clear, and the red thread entered Ah Ji's body through his palm.1

A moment later, the spring water in his palm had returned to its clear state. At the same time, the faint fragrance of the spring water had also disappeared.

"So magical." Ah Ji took a deep breath. Looking at such a big pond full of red spring water, he was extremely excited in his heart.

He originally wanted to temper all the skin on his body so that he could step into the middle stage of the Refinement Realm, but now that he saw such a huge pool of water, Ah Ji's mood immediately became excited. He jumped straight in without thinking.

Plop! The red spring water splashed.

Ah Ji laid in the red spring water. Faint black scales appeared on his body. Countless red threads formed from the spring water. They were like countless tiny blood vessels connecting to Ah Ji's body.

The red thread started to flow into Ah Ji's body. As the black scales on his body became more and more solid, they started to turn faintly red.

As time passed, the scales became redder and redder, looking extremely demonic.

However, Ah Ji did not notice these minute changes, he was completely focused on activating the Nameless Devil Art. Following the circulation of the Nameless Devil Art, his chest area was slowly being covered by the scales.

First the heart, then the crotch, then the head.

Ah Ji didn't realize that the color of the spring water was gradually fading and there were less filaments.

Boom!" Finally, an explosion came from Ah Ji's Dantian!

The skin all over his body was covered, and as his skin was completely covered, a blackish-red shadow immediately appeared in his dantian.

Ah Ji was unable to see what exactly this shadow was and its shape was constantly changing. However, the appearance of this shadow made Ah Ji very happy. This was a situation that only occurred in the middle stage of body refining.

What did this mean? This meant that he had successfully stepped into the middle stage of the Refinement Realm.

At this moment, his body was like a field that had been dry for a long time. The moment he broke through, he began to absorb the surrounding energy without restraint. The scales on his body also turned blood-red.

"Hmm? "What's going on?" At this moment, Ah Ji finally realized the problem.

Not only did he sense that the scales on his body had turned blood-red, more importantly, the red spring water in the pond seemed to have lost color and became clear.

This made Ah Ji panic. He originally wanted to borrow the Blood Cave's power to increase his strength, but who would've thought that he actually absorbed all of their water.

"All of you, stand guard. Without my order, no one is allowed to approach." At this moment, a pleasant voice sounded out.
