Outside the unfamiliar cave, Yan Gucheng and Geo sat casually on the ground.
Yan Gucheng looked at the sword in his hand, and streams of sword intent flowed in his heart.
Geo closed his eyes, and his mind kept on recalling his punches and stances.
Avar's brows were tightly knitted together as he paced around. Seeing how calm Yan Gucheng and Geo were, he could not help but say, "Aren't you guys worried at all?"
"Worried about what?" Geo asked.
"The first step of the Nether Realm's Night Sovereign Technique is to disperse and gather Qi. It's equivalent to dispersing all the powers in the body, including the beating of the heart, the flow of the blood, the squirming of the organs, and so on. It's equivalent to turning oneself into a dead person.
"Then, using one's Qi and Qi to take over the body once again. Don't you understand the dangers involved?
"The human body is a very intricate and complicated thing. If there's even the slightest mistake, no matter how strong one is, they'll definitely die.
"He's only been learning it for less than a month, and it's too risky to disperse and gather Qi."
Yan Gucheng continued to look at the sword in his hand, as if he was not listening to Avar's words.
Geo said coldly, "Isn't there the Blood of Destinies? Even if something were to happen, it's just a waste of a chance to be reborn. "
Avar exhaled helplessly. He could not be bothered to continue talking to these two rocks, and turned his gaze back to the cave.
...
In the depths of the cave, the huge bear that had been living here had been killed by Geo. The trash and remains in the cave had also been cleaned up.
Right now, Zuo Zhicheng was sitting on a straw mat with his eyes closed, constantly checking the condition of his body.
Lungs, liver, kidneys, spleen, blood vessels, bones, muscles...
Every part of his body was under his control. Relying on his control of the body down to the smallest detail, he started to slowly and intentionally control the squirming of his organs and the flow of his blood.
'It's about time. '
In the next moment, Zuo Zhicheng's body seemed to have sunk into a city with a blackout. More and more of his organs and tissues stopped moving, and his flame of life slowly disappeared.
Through his spiritual vision, he could even sense that the originally bright flames were disappearing bit by bit.
The flames grew dimmer and dimmer, and Zuo Zhicheng's straightened back slowly bent down.
In just one minute, Zuo Zhicheng's entire body had stopped moving, and he emitted a deathly still aura.
He was dead.
If a person stopped bleeding and stopped breathing, he would be dead. Zuo Zhicheng was no exception.
However, the Night Emperor Technique of the Underworld was a martial art that sought survival in the midst of death. If he could not wake up from death, then Zuo Zhicheng would truly be dead.
The moment Zuo Zhicheng died, a brand-new, powerful, explosive force slowly awakened from the depths of his brain. It quickly spread throughout his body and began to exert its power on his body.
Under the effect of the force field, his lungs began to contract and expand little by little. Just as his lungs were contracting and expanding, he began to breathe again.
Zuo Zhicheng's life force flowed out of his body again. Under the effect of his Qi of Vital Energy, all his tissues and organs started to function again.
His back suddenly straightened, his mouth opened, and his nostrils flared as he inhaled deeply.
'The lungs are functioning normally.'
'Nerve transmission is operating normally.'
'The Ink Bones are operating normally.'
'The muscles are in a dormant state.'
'Everything is … normal.'
Voices rang in his mind one by one. Zuo Zhicheng slowly stood up. Just as he was about to take a step forward, he realized that he was falling toward the ground.
However, as a Void Refinement expert, it was impossible for him to fall. His Qi of Vital Energy immediately helped him up.
'I'm not used to this …'
In Zuo Zhicheng's current state, most of his organs were in a semi-dormant state. The movement of his entire body mainly depended on his Qi of Vital Energy.
Almost at every moment, a lot of information about his body was forced into his brain.
His blood pressure, body temperature, cranial pressure, force field, weight, and the various proportions of his body tissues were all recorded.
A few minutes later, he slowly floated out of the cave. When his feet landed on the ground, he felt the waves coming from the ground. Then, he slowly said, "Wait for me here."
His gaze swept across the towering mountains and steep ridges, and he saw countless specks of stars.
Although they kept changing their position in the deep mountains, they had stayed here for too long. More and more people were catching up to them. Moreover, they were deep in the mountains. Naturally, there would be countless animals in the mountains.
Zuo Zhicheng's psionic vision was not weak, but he could not detect the situation that was a few kilometers or even more than ten kilometers away.
Therefore, he asked, "Where are the most people?"
Avar said, "23 degrees to the west of north. It's about 7.3 kilometers away."
After nodding, Zuo Zhicheng slowly squatted down. He bent his legs and lowered his center of gravity. It was a very simple squatting movement, but Zuo Zhicheng did it very slowly and seriously. It was as if it was his first time learning how to squat.
In fact, it was indeed so. This was the first time he learned how to squat using his Qi of Vital Energy. Therefore, he learned it very seriously.
After squatting, there was no reaction from the muscles in his legs. However, an extremely violent force poured out from his feet and blasted into the ground.
Zuo Zhicheng jumped fiercely and disappeared in an instant.
Under his feet, the ground cracked and trembled. Ripples spread out in all directions like ocean waves. Then, large chunks of rock burst and protruded out. It was as if the entire ground had been ravaged by a huge hand.
Amidst the smoke and dust, Yan Gucheng, Ge Ao, and Avar instantly flashed out. Yan Gucheng and Avar, who were still ordinary people, felt dizzy as if a bomb had exploded in their heads.
"He's mastered it?" Avar looked at the tiny figure at the end of the Celestial Pole and opened his mouth wide. "The eighth generation Sect Master took half a year to master it. He only took one month to master it?"
"And … he's so powerful."
…
7.3 kilometers away, several tens of experts from the imperial court were sitting in a mountain god temple.
Naturally, these experts from the imperial court had come here for Zuo Zhicheng and the legendary records of the Southern Sacred Sect.
Martial arts, Dao techniques, treasures, and Divine Weapons … When these words were placed together with Zuo Zhicheng, they had long become the most sought after items in the Pugilistic World.
However, these people from the imperial court were very clear-headed. They knew how powerful Zuo Zhicheng was and that he had already awakened. Therefore, they had no intention of chasing after him. They only planned to tail him from afar and report his whereabouts.
However, another group of people from the Pugilistic World arrived outside the mountain god temple. It was a group of escort carriages.
"Old Masters, we'll leave right away." An old man who had walked into the mountain god temple had extremely sharp eyes. After seeing that something was amiss, he immediately retreated, nodding and bowing as he kept retreating.
The soldiers in the mountain god temple exchanged a glance and drew their swords and sabers.
"Don't let the news leak out."
"Don't leave any of them alive."
Cold sweat covered the old man's head. Just as he thought that the entire escort team was going to be wiped out by this unexpected disaster, a black shadow seemed to flash before his eyes.
At the next moment, an explosion rang out. Thousands of shattered rocks and fragments shot out in all directions, as if a monster had burst out from the temple.
The entire mountain god temple had turned into ruins. The soldiers from earlier had already fallen to the ground, and broken limbs were scattered everywhere.
The people from the escort team were left lying on the ground from the shock. They watched in a daze as a figure stood up from the ruins and spread out his arms and wings.
