Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises.

Chapter 8: Upgrading and Refining the Five Animals Pill
Now that I have moved to a new place, I naturally have to tell my elder sister, in case I happen to run into those two tomb robbers when I go back.
It seems that there is no problem. The eldest sister has already practiced the Red Sand Palm of the Red Tiger Gang to the third level half a month ago.

Although the power of the Red Sand Palm is not as strong as that of the Iron Arm Fist, it is extremely vicious.

If an ordinary person is hit by a palm, unless he wipes it with the secret medicinal wine, the affected area will become red, swollen and ulcerated within a month.

According to his calculations, the two tomb robbers were only strong enough to fight against a warrior at the first level of the Red Sand Palm, and they might not even win.

If the Red Tiger Gang had not prohibited it from being passed on to outsiders, he would have learned this martial art from his elder sister long ago.

After a while, he put the envelope away, came to the restaurant lobby, handed the envelope to the waiter, and then found a seat to sit down.

I ordered two taels of fried peanuts and a small stack of aged vinegar, which cost me ten cents.

"Hey, have you heard? It seems that the adults in the inner city have sent troops to the Great Black Mountain."

"Dahei Mountain? Why go there? Apart from some black wood and herbs, there doesn't seem to be anything valuable there, right?"

At a table behind him, three young men in fancy clothes were drinking wine and were already a little tipsy.

One of them spread his arms and placed them on the shoulders of the other two. The three heads leaned together and talked mysteriously.

However, Qin Jiang has now practiced the Five Animal Exercises to the third level. Although it is only a health-preserving exercise and not a combat-type martial art, it also has an advantage, which is that it can make one's ears and eyes sharp and one can eat and sleep well.

He estimated that with his current physical condition, living to be over a hundred years old would not be a problem at all.

His ears trembled slightly, and the words of the three people came into his ears clearly.

"I'm telling you, don't tell anyone."

"Tsk, Lao Li, don't worry, I, Lao Song, will keep my mouth shut!"

"That's right, you don't trust Lao Song, but you also don't trust me, Lao Lu? If not, then just tell me alone, we won't play with Lao Song!"

"Alright, alright, stop joking. Let me tell you something. I heard from my father that the one leading the troops this time is our county lieutenant, Lord Long Yueshenglong!"

Bang! Ding ding ding.
Old Song stood up suddenly, and his sleeve knocked the wine glass to the ground, causing it to spin.

He looked at Lao Li in shock, "Are you kidding me?"

Old Li frowned and looked around. Many people were already looking at him.

He stood up and waved his sleeves in an angry manner, "Bullshit! When did I owe you money? You really don't know what you mean!"

After saying that, he turned and left, but waved his hands quietly behind his back, motioning the two to follow him.

Lao Song immediately realized that he had lost his composure and sobered up. "Hey, hey, hey, Lao Li! Lao Li! I remembered it wrong! I remembered it wrong! Wait for me!"

After the three men left, Qin Jiang lowered his eyes, ate a few peanuts, drank the small dish of aged vinegar in one gulp, then stood up and left silently.

Back in the house, he sat quietly in front of the window, looking at the bright moon in the sky.

The many scenes I experienced after my rebirth flashed through my mind like a kaleidoscope.

Troubled times, monsters, tomb robbers, black-haired monkeys, white fog, tombstones, Liu Dahang, the old doctor, rituals, and the county lieutenant who had just been heard leading his troops into the mountains.

Everything was as if an invisible hand was pushing him forward. If he was not careful, he would be in danger of life and death.

He knew that this was a chaotic world and he had no control over his situation.

In fact, what he wanted was just a sense of security.

After an unknown amount of time, the night's humidity wet the ends of his hair, and Qin Jiang came back to his senses.

The bright moon in the sky was obscured by dark clouds. He looked at his palms and clenched them slightly.

He stood up, untied the bundle on the table, and took out a wooden box, which was the Five Animals Pill that the old doctor had given him during the day.

Without rushing to eat, he first looked through the old doctor's experience in practicing the Five Animal Exercises.

As he flipped through the pages, he grasped some details that he had not noticed before, and controlled the internal energy in his body to cleanse the weak points that he had not noticed before.

He continued to read, nodding his head, and from time to time he had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

[Five Animal Play Level 40 (120/)]

Call ~
Joy flashed in his eyes. Just by flipping through it once, he gained 32 experience points, which was better than 0.3 potential points!

It is indeed the essence of the old doctor’s life-long practice!

I'm afraid that the old doctor's realm has reached the peak of the third level of the Five Animal Exercises.

Of course, he also knew that this was because he read it for the first time and filled in many details, so it had such a strong effect. It would not be the same when he read it again. Putting down the book, he looked around and closed the window. The candlelight cast his shadow on the paper of the door and window.

Seeing this, he blew out the candle. Now with his eyesight, he was able to see at night.

When the surroundings fell into darkness, he found a corner, sat cross-legged, and gently opened the wooden box.

Suddenly, a strong medicinal aroma accompanied by bursts of sweet and fishy smell wafted into his mouth and nose, making his blood circulation faster.

What a strong medicinal effect!
If this is the case just by smelling it, what effect would it have if you eat it?
Picking up the pill, a piece of paper caught my eye.

He picked it up and looked at it. There was a text written on it: 'Five Animals Pill, made from the blood of five animals supplemented with eleven kinds of medicinal herbs. The formula is as follows.
Please note that this pill has the effect of cleansing the tendons and marrow. Before taking it, you can prepare a bucket of cold water for washing your body. Remember, it must be cold water, preferably well water. '

The handwriting has turned a little yellow, and you can tell at a glance that it is old.

After a while, after writing down the prescription, he crumpled up the note, and his internal energy surged, shaking it into pieces.

After two seconds of silence, he put the pills back into the wooden box and put it in his arms. He stood up and went outside to ask the waiter for a large bucket, which he then filled halfway with well water.

After everything was ready, he sat back in the corner, took out the Five Animals Pill and put it into his mouth.

Instantly, a strong bitter taste of herbs accompanied by the sweet smell of blood filled the mouth.

This Five Animals Pill was to be taken orally. He endured the nausea and mobilized his internal energy to circulate the medicinal power.

A medicinal force like a raging fire flows through the blood and flesh along the meridians. Each time it flows, it releases special medicinal properties to strengthen the internal energy, and absorbs impurities in the body along the way and discharges them out of the body through the pores.

Sweat was constantly being discharged, emitting bursts of sour smell, but Qin Jiang was unaware of it at this moment, and there was even a hint of joy on his face!

He could clearly feel that his body, flesh, bones, even bone marrow and internal organs, were constantly being strengthened!

Especially the five internal organs, the heartbeat becomes stronger and the breathing becomes longer and deeper!
Waves of hunger surged up, and were then filled by the medicinal power of the Five Animals Pill, switching between hunger and fullness.

After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and a flash of light appeared.

The virtual room generates electricity!

This is a manifestation of the spirit reaching its peak!

After removing the impurities from the body, one feels like walking on clouds, with an ethereal aura.

At this moment, he was in a terribly good condition!
Hmm~what a stinky fairy scent.

Qin Jiang frowned, stood up and lit a candle. He used the candlelight to see his arm clearly. It was covered with a layer of yellow glue-like substance with tiny white and brown particles inside.

Without hesitation, he jumped into the bucket with his clothes on, and immediately a layer of oil floated on the water.

A cool feeling permeated his whole body. After a moment, he shook the internal energy of the Five Animals to wash away the dirt on his body and clothes, and jumped out of the bucket.

When he landed, all the moisture in his body had been evaporated by the internal energy.

[Five Animal Play Level 90 (120/)]

Looking at the panel, the experience value directly increased by 50 points!
No wonder the old doctor said it could help one reach the third level. This one pill saved one more than half of the hard work of the second level!
After thinking for a moment, he directly poured the potential points into the Five Animal Exercises. One reason was that he was only a little bit away from the peak of the third level, and the other was that he remembered that the panel also had the function of deducing and integrating martial arts.

[Five Animal Exercises (Level 90) (120/30), Experience +]

【Five Animal Exercises (Perfection)】

[Potential Points: 0.9]

The internal energy surged in the body like a turbulent river, and in the blink of an eye it was all integrated into the body.

The corners of Qin Jiang's mouth curled up slightly. This was the characteristic of practicing the Five Animal Exercises to the highest level, with the internal energy blending into the body.

Normally it turns into internal energy to nourish the body, thereby slowly improving the body's qualities and thus increasing lifespan. It can also suddenly erupt during a fight, increasing the power of the fist to defeat the enemy.

He sensed carefully and felt a familiar feeling, like a mountain breeze blowing through the hills, exactly the same feeling he had with the old doctor.

It seems that the old doctor has really practiced the Five Animal Exercises to the highest level.

If this is the case, does it mean that he has lived for more than two decades?

He smiled and shook his head, not paying too much attention, his eyes falling on the bottom of the panel.

[It is detected that the 'Five Animal Exercises' has reached the limit of martial arts. Do you want to perform it? ]
