28 Xing ZhenKang
Two days have been passed since Li Jie fell into this dark underground space, where Li Jie can be seen sitting against the wall reading the manual he found in the underground space with deep concentration.
His facial expression depicted pain and thirst while clutching onto his stomach with his left hand, beads of sweat on his forehead and neck can be seen his face scrunched up with pain.
He kept reading the manual, trying to distract himself from this agony that he felt,
one more thing noteworthy that he found to be was that the manual not only had the "PERFECT PHYSIQUE REFINEMENT" technique written in it but also had notes on the experiences of the senior who had practiced this technique,
as well as some information regarding this particular senior's origin, in which the thing which made him most shocked was that this body refinement technique wasn't something inherited and was completely unique,
because it was created by this particular senior and that it was one of a kind unique technique that wasn't practiced by anyone else.
If Li Jie were to ever practice this technique, then he would be the second being known in existence to be learning this body refinement technique,
it was also mentioned in the manual that this technique was incomplete and that it can only be practiced till the Essence Crystallization Stage,
after which the user of this technique will have to improve this technique on their own, there were also some hints and notes on improving the body refinement technique for the further stages of cultivation,
Li Jie marveled at this technique and how can someone create such a wondrous body refinement technique, and at how careful this senior was towards guiding the next generation,
Li Jie knew that if the existence of this technique were ever to be known, by those in the continent then the whole continent will embroil into chaos with war for this "PERFECT PHYSIQUE REFINEMENT" technique,
because unlike essence cultivation techniques of bloodline where they can only be suitable towards those of a particular bloodline,
the body refinement technique can be practiced by anyone, even those with low talent and low-grade bloodlines can go far in the terms of body refinement technique,
as for the limitation imposed by this technique where it can only be practiced till "Essence Crystallisation Stage", wasn't really a limitation, after all, it was the level of the patriarchs and great elders of the great families of the Bright Heart continent!!!
In the whole continent, many can only dream of reaching the unreachable Essence Crystallisation stage, even if they are the very young masters of the great families, everyone in the continent knows how hard it is to reach this stage, years pass by for many humans yet they are stuck at lower stages of cultivation,
whereas this body refinement technique is something which can be learned by anyone not concerning their bloodline or talent, but of course, even if this body refinement technique can be learned by anyone,
doesn't mean that it can be learned easily and that anyone can easily reach higher levels, it obviously has it's own requirements to train which one has to fulfill to reach the higher stages in body refinement.
As Li Jie kept reading the manual, he also started getting adapted to the pangs of hunger which eased due to him concentrating totally on the manual as well as the more shocking details present in the manual,
which mentioned that the senior who created this technique was called Xing ZhenKang, he was a native of this continent who was born in the slums!!!
Xing ZhenKang was also born with a Low-grade bloodline of the water element.
Although it was of low grade and had no attack power neither did it had any strengthening effects on him,
it was a unique bloodline that was used in sensing the liquid present everywhere around him, for example, if some living being or any creature were to come near him, he was able to sense them,
and the amount of liquid present in a body could be seen by him which was of no use at first and his bloodline was considered to be the trashiest due to it not having even a bit of attack power, nor any other useful effects but it was one day he noticed a cultivator of higher stage passing through the slums,
he could sense the amount of liquid present in the body of that cultivator, which was the same as that of all adults except for the fact that the liquid present in the cultivator was of much thicker quality and it was glowing with a verdant color,
feeling strange about his newfound discovery, he started paying attention towards those who cultivated, and then he noticed that those who started their cultivation had red color liquid in them and those stronger than them had different colors,
from what he could tell was that the man whose liquid glowed of verdant color was the strongest he has seen so far,
he had always wondered what this liquid was that he could sense in humans and beasts, and one day out of curiosity he started to search for beasts and the result was the same as that of humans except for the fact that beasts of the same stage as that of a human were holding more of this liquid in their body compared to humans,
which made him more and more curious about this liquid that was present in the body of humans and beats, and after countless experimentations, he found out that this liquid found in beasts and humans was "Bloodline Energy".
which is the deciding factor in a person's level of bloodline as well as the strength possessed by it, the more bloodline energy a person possesses, the higher the grade as well as the strength possessed by the person.
Due to some luck, while experimenting one time, he was able to absorb the bloodline energy from the beast he was experimenting on which was a very shocking discovery for him,
and then he repeated the process again and again which not only helped him further in his research but also in increasing his strength and the grade of his bloodline!!!
