Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

A few hours later, Kanao Tsuyuri rubbed her slightly sore eyes and said:

"The medicine has been prepared."

Tanjiro Kamado snapped out of his daze and perked up:

"Okay, thank you."

However, when he saw Kanao Tsuyuri, he noticed that she had large dark circles under her eyes on her pretty face.

At this moment, Tanjiro Kamado realized that the other person hadn't slept all night.

After cultivating his internal energy, he needed very little sleep each day. Since cultivating his emotional energy, he could go three days without sleep without feeling tired.

However, this is not the case with Kanao Tsuyuri.

"Thank you, go to sleep now, leave the rest to me."

Tanjiro Kamado quickly replied.

"It's alright. But what do you plan to do with this medicine? It's all poisonous, so you can't just drink it."

Kanao Tsukihana reminded him, even though she knew Tanjiro Kamado must know about this, she still couldn't help but remind him.

"Hehe, this is for my cultivation. Don't worry, go and rest."

Tanjiro Kamado waved his hand. He knew all this, and Lin Yu had explained it to him properly back then. However, for revenge and to become stronger, everything was worth it.

Kanao looked at the other person deeply, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

After Kanao Tsuyuri left, Tanjiro Kamado turned around and went to the large pot of medicine. Without any hesitation, he poured everything in it into his stomach.

After eight hours of boiling, the medicine had long since become an extremely viscous substance.

Drinking it all was naturally difficult, and it took Tanjiro Kamado quite a bit of his time. (End of Chapter)

Chapter 283 Refining, Becoming Stronger

The medicine was not strong when it entered the mouth, but it instantly turned into a scalding hot stream after entering the stomach.

However, Tanjiro Kamado felt that this time was completely different from when he was training his inner strength.

The heat flow that had been coursing through his body was now spreading outwards from his abdomen the moment it entered his stomach.

At the same time, Tanjiro Kamado felt waves of painful heat surge through his heart.

The intense pain caused him to groan softly involuntarily, and he lay on the ground in a shrimp-like position.

It was only at this moment that Tanjiro Kamado realized that the heat was not a temperature, but a burning pain!

The so-called heat flow is gradually eroding and destroying everything it touches.

The surging pain is slowly consuming Tanjiro Kamado.

Almost subconsciously, Tanjiro Kamado thought of what Lin Yu had said.

After drinking the medicine immediately, the next step is to circulate one's internal energy.

Subconsciously, Tanjiro Kamado had already used his inner strength to attack the heat stream.

Although the heat was powerful, it lacked consciousness. After being attacked by Tanjiro Kamado's internal energy, it immediately became obedient and stopped causing destruction.

However, Tanjiro Kamado also discovered a new problem: he could now clearly sense that his internal energy could not completely offset the pain, and that his internal energy was being consumed at a moderate pace.

Although the heat was slowly subsiding, at this rate of internal energy consumption, his internal energy would be depleted before the medicine was even finished.

At that time, he will surely be consumed by pain.

Furthermore, Tanjiro Kamado had a feeling that the current heat was completely destroying his body, and that he could perhaps endure the pain through willpower.

However, if the body is damaged and cannot recover immediately, it will definitely cause irreversible damage.

This reminded him of another thing Lin Yu had said: after enveloping the medicinal liquid, one should simultaneously circulate one's internal energy using both fist techniques and mental cultivation methods.

Tanjiro Kamado struggled to his feet, each step causing him extreme pain, but it was the only way he could do it.

He quickly stood up, regardless of whether they were indoors or not.

But as soon as he threw a punch, Tanjiro Kamado sensed something was wrong.

That is the internal force carrying the medicinal liquid moving along with Tanjiro Kamado's internal force.

The medicine, which was originally only causing damage to the abdomen, has now transformed into a thug, rampaging through Tanjiro Kamado's body.

Fortunately, Tanjiro Kamado had experienced the same pain as before when he went through the same hurdle of cultivating inner strength, so this time Tanjiro Kamado was not as miserable as the first time.

At the same time, he also discovered that his emotional power began to slowly increase when he had clear painful emotions, which alleviated his pain somewhat.

However, Tanjiro Kamado didn't think too much about it and started throwing punches while silently reciting a mantra to accelerate the circulation of his internal energy.

Before long, given the speed at which Tanjiro Kamado's internal energy circulated, pain had spread throughout his entire body.

Tanjiro Kamado's mind was completely immersed in training, struggling against boundless pain.

What he didn't notice was that a beautiful figure was standing at the entrance of the pharmacy, looking at him with a complicated expression.

This person is none other than Kurihana Kanao, who left and then returned.

Kanao Tsuyuri had already left, but not long after, she heard Tanjiro Kamado groan, so she turned around and quickly found him lying on the ground with an empty medicine pot next to him.

This means that the other party has already drunk the entire pot of medicine!

Although Kurihana Kanao had never made a similar medicine, judging from her pharmacological knowledge, that amount would be enough to cause a strong demon's entire body to fester within half an hour.

But Tanjiro Kamado just drank it straight down?

Kanao Tsuyuri felt a surge of nervousness as she stared intently at Tanjiro Kamado, unsure of how to help him.

After all, the medicinal properties of the medicine in Kamado Tanjiro's body are so complex and synergistic that a single medicine would certainly not be enough to help Kamado Tanjiro overcome these terrifying medicinal properties.

How can we help Tanjiro Kamado?

Just as Kanao Tsuyuri was wondering whether to ask Shinobu Kocho to come over, she noticed Tanjiro Kamado struggling to stand up and starting to use the same fist technique that Kanao Tsuyuri had seen before.

Kanao Tsukihana was completely stunned.

According to the properties of the medicine, the effects of the liquid had already begun to erode Tanjiro Kamado's stomach. The intense cramping would have caused a human to faint, so how was Tanjiro Kamado able to stand up?

And he can even maintain consciousness while throwing a punch?

She even wanted to scream out loud, because it was almost impossible.

However, she soon had to admit that this was indeed going to happen.

The fact that Tanjiro Kamado, who was initially swaying unsteadily, quickly became extremely responsive proved that Tanjiro Kamado's consciousness was regaining control.

But this is undoubtedly impossible.

What exactly is Tanjiro Kamado doing?

Kanao Tsukihana was on tenterhooks; the drowsiness she had felt earlier had long since vanished, and now her entire heart was focused on the other person.

At this moment, Tanjiro Kamado had completely immersed himself in his own body.

He found himself experiencing a profound sense of division: one feeling was that he was watching the flow of internal energy within his body, while the other was that he was observing everything within his body as an outsider.

The perspective from behind is one that Tanjiro Kamado has never seen before.

So why did this change happen?

Tanjiro Kamado quickly understood why.

The answer is emotional power!

Internal energy and medicinal power were locked in a fierce battle, but emotional energy remained detached from both, quietly observing everything within his body.

Emotional power gave him this strange third-person perspective.

Emotional power has such wonderful uses.

A hint of joy flashed through Tanjiro Kamado's mind. No wonder Lin Yu said that using emotional power to attack with internal force was just a very rudimentary method.

From the first perspective, Tanjiro Kamado could only feel the highly corrosive medicinal power clashing with his internal energy. But from the second perspective, one could clearly see the devastation left behind wherever the internal energy and the medicinal power passed.

But for some reason, a residual medicinal power was repairing Tanjiro Kamado's body in these areas, and at the same time, a portion of his internal energy remained in these areas to help restore his body and catalyze the effects of the medicine.

During this process, Tanjiro Kamado discovers that his newly grown flesh and blood are tinged with a rich crimson color, seemingly becoming stronger and more expansive.

Tanjiro Kamado was overjoyed, knowing that this would surely allow his meridians to hold more internal energy.

As expected, my master was absolutely right.

Although Tanjiro Kamado was amazed by Lin Yu's methods countless times, he couldn't help but think that Lin Yu was indeed worthy of the title.

Although the pain was still spreading, Tanjiro Kamado was now completely excited and full of motivation to fight.

After an unknown amount of time, Tanjiro Kamado finally noticed that the surging heat had disappeared.

At this time, his body had also undergone a round of strengthening, becoming stronger, and his emotional power had increased. What surprised Tanjiro Kamado the most was that his internal energy had also increased significantly.

This time, taking the medicine actually achieved three benefits at once!

No, it should be a win-win-win situation. After all, the expansion of the meridians in his body makes his internal energy flow faster and can accommodate more internal energy.

Tanjiro Kamado could clearly feel that he was much stronger than before.

This surprised and delighted him.
