Chapter 230: Chapter 156: Heng Province Top 100 Competition, This Evil Must Be Annihilated!

Because she had been engrossed in cooking and lost track of time, it wasn’t until twenty minutes later that Yu Weiwei returned to the training room, wiped away the flower of spirit, and canceled the spiritual resonance.

She felt extremely guilty inside, thinking that she had wasted Qin’s junior brother’s efforts for nothing. She needed to make up for it later.

However, what she saw was the white-haired old man sitting in a wheelchair, looking like all the bones in his body had fallen apart, gasping for breath, his eyes empty and lifeless, as if he was on the verge of death, about to take his final breath at any moment.

"Master, are you all right?"

Yu Weiwei’s face showed surprise. How long had she been gone that her master’s already weak life force seemed to have nearly been extinguished?

Had he aged even more, ravaged by time?

"I..."

The white-haired old man opened his mouth, his lips trembling.

Staring directly at his third disciple, he wanted to ask:

"Little Fish, do you know how I endured these twenty minutes!"

He Lanchan in Qin Shi’s illusion was practically a perfect imitation.

His attacks were sinister and ruthless, almost driving him to the brink of mental collapse!

"Master, are you hungry? Your breath is so weak, it seems like your physical energy has been severely depleted. I have the nutritional meal I made for Qin’s junior brother, you can have some of it first."

Yu Weiwei’s eyes sparkled with concern as she spoke.

The white-haired old man’s heart finally broke after hearing this.

It’s often said that a female disciple is like a small cotton-padded jacket for her master.

But no one ever mentioned that this small cotton-padded jacket could be so drafty!

"Pfth!"

The white-haired old man’s chest heaved several times, his eyes rolled back, his legs kicked, and he completely passed out.

Before he closed his eyes, he sighed sorrowfully.

Nanhuang Daoist School, what a misfortune for the sect!

Even the newly admitted Qin Shi conspired with outsiders to bully a lonely old man like himself!

...

...

"Comfortable!"

Qin Shi opened his eyes, a smile on his lips and his spirit exceptionally refreshed.

With a mental introspection, he saw the wisps of mist in his mind becoming more solid, nearly condensing into a core that glowed with a white light.

This was a sign of spiritual transformation.

From the void to the substantial, the power to interfere with reality would become stronger, potentially even giving rise to spiritual tendrils that could absorb ambient energy from the outside world.

At that point, he would be able to condense the holy embryo and take a solid step on the path of spiritual ability.

But for most spiritual ability users, this was as far as they could go.

Wanting to advance to sitting and forgetting was incredibly difficult.

The spiritual ability path was not like the martial arts path, where one could rely on external resources to break through bottlenecks.

Attempting to force a breakthrough without transforming one’s spirit would only greatly increase the risk of going insane.

"Witnessing Old Zhang’s battle with Super Little He, taking a few hits was worth the price of admission."

Qin Shi’s lips curled into a smile. From Old Zhang’s demonstration, his understanding of the Cosmic Furnace Secret Manual had deepened further.

"All bones resonating, the furnace propelling, almost a two hundred percent output mode, can be used as a special move."

He rubbed his throbbing temples. Having absorbed too much at once, the intensity needed to be eased.

Quietly circulating the furnace technique, his blood accelerated metabolism, causing sweat to pour out instantly, expelling impurities.

This was the benefit of breaking through the third great limit, the Bone Barrier.

At any time, blood and energy would pump out, expelling the old and taking in the new, allowing waste blood to flow out and new blood to regenerate, always keeping him in peak condition.

"My life force is about to break through seventy points. If I perform a few more blood exchanges to perfect the new transformation from the Bone Barrier limit, I might reach eighty points."

Qin Shi thought to himself. If he completed the path of the seven great limits, his cumulative life force would surpass a thousand points.

The further one progressed, the harder it became to increase life force, which is why bottlenecks occurred.

For example, to break through the one hundred-point threshold for the specialized level from ninety-nine points.

It required immense resources, effort, and sweat, seeming only a one-point gap, but it actually demanded dozens or even hundreds of times more effort and investment than before to break through.

The perverse aspect of the limit-breaking road created by the Old Martial Sect was that it seemed to break free from the original limitations of the human body, continually pushing upward, transforming the mortal body closer to divinity.

There were almost no bottlenecks along the way, and those checkpoints simply couldn’t stop the progress.

Of course, the premise was that you had sufficient potential and were among the top geniuses.

"Walking on thin ice!"

Qin Shi steadied his mind. He hadn’t yet reached the other shore and couldn’t relax for a moment.

He needed to break through to the specialized level as soon as possible to have more stable self-protection.

He hadn’t forgotten about the Qin Family in Yan City, or the mastermind behind the scenes who was gradually revealing themselves.

Moreover, from the spiritual resonance with the Void Meditation Technique, and the conversation between He Lanchan and his mysterious teacher.

This Martial God inheritance seemed to hide even greater secrets.

If he were forced into the situation, it would be even more troublesome.

"Not stable enough, must strive, become bigger, become stronger!"

Qin Shi got up, and in the room, there was a bathroom. He took off his clothes and turned on the shower.

Already steel-like muscles flowed like liquid mercury with his breath, exhibiting a vigorous beauty that combined strength and flexibility.

Three minutes later, the shower was over, and the microscopic tremor of his skin shook off the remaining water droplets.

His boiling breath radiated heat, evaporating the water traces and even drying his hair.

Then he changed into the brand-new outfit prepared by Old Ren, a sporty set of short sleeves and long pants, looking every bit the fresh and sunny boy next door.

"Junior Brother Qin, after you finish cultivating, come to the main hall, Third Senior Sister has made your favorite nutritional meal."

The terminal vibrated slightly, and a message came from the communication group.

Qin Shi sighed. Without the achievement trait of overgrowth, he had no doubt that Senior Sister Yu would poison him to death.
