More than two hours later, the frenzied atmosphere finally subsided.

As the last desire was fulfilled, the remaining drug power in her body was completely released, and Luo Yan collapsed as if all her strength had been drained, lying helplessly on the ground.

Chen You slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, and slightly circulated the qi and blood in his body to dispel his fatigue.

Then, he quickly dressed Luo Yan, carried her on his back, and left in a hurry.

A short while later.

At the entrance of Yanyang Martial Arts School.

After pushing open the door and placing Luo Yan behind it, Chen You knocked on the door a few times.

Who is it?

Yang Zhenzhen's voice came through.

Once he was sure someone had come, Chen You left.

At the same time, Luo Yan slowly woke up.

"No, don't do this..."

Luo Yan had no recollection of what had just happened; all she remembered was the need to escape, to escape at all costs.

Because if he doesn't run away, Fang Zheng will catch up with him, and then...

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, and tears streamed down her face.

At this moment, Chen You noticed that Luo Yan's affection for him was decreasing.

[Favorability 90%]

[Favorability 83%]

[Favorability 67%]

[Favorability 32%]

Chen You knew exactly what was going on.

Once the effects of the drug wore off, she naturally lost all feelings for him.

But it's still pretty good.

After all, this last wave earned him a whopping 3200 points of desire.

Soon, Chen You disappeared around the street corner.

Yang Zhenzhen had already helped Luo Yan up, anxiously asking, "Junior Sister Luo, what's wrong? What's wrong?"

"Senior sister..."

Luo Yan groggily opened her eyes, saw Yang Zhenzhen, and cried, "I...I'm not dead, am I? This isn't the underworld?"

"What underworld? This is a martial arts school! I heard someone knocking on the door, so I went out to check, and I didn't expect to find you lying here. What happened? Didn't Fang Zheng say he was going to take you back?"

When the name Founder was mentioned, Luo Yan seemed to recall something, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Fang Zheng is a beast!!"

…………

…………

He came home late today, and Xu Qiuxue was indeed still awake, sitting at the table waiting for him.

Seeing Chen You push open the door and enter the room, Xu Qiuxue's beautiful eyes lit up with surprise: "Chen You, why are you so late today?"

"I went fishing. Look, Master's wife, a top-grade treasure fish!" Chen You smiled and waved the catch in her hand.

"Really? That's great!" Xu Qiuxue's eyes lit up, her face full of joy.

"Yes, I'll give this precious fish to Senior Brother Gao Chengyang tomorrow." Xu Qiuxue also knew about Gao Chengyang giving Chen You a fishing rod.

Xu Qiuxue smiled gently: "Well, he did give you a fishing rod after all, which you promised him, so you should return it."

"I'm a little hungry, is there anything to eat?" Chen You rubbed his stomach.

"They're all keeping warm in the pot, I'll go get them for you."

As night fell, Chen You would invariably try to take advantage of the situation.

But I've already exhausted myself on Luo Yan today, so I won't take advantage of Xu Qiuxue.

Lying in bed, looking at the three thousand points of desire on the system panel, Chen You couldn't stop smiling.

You can't spend it all, you simply can't spend it all!

"Now I can practice the Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm."

Chen You held his breath and focused his mind, his consciousness instantly sinking into the Desire Beads within his body.

The scene before him twisted and spun, and the next moment, he found himself standing on the bank of an open river.

The sound of flowing water filled my ears, and the air was fresh and crisp.

"Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm!"

The moves and diagrams of this martial art appeared in Chen You's mind.

This is a genuine second-rate martial art, its power far surpassing that of ordinary third-rate martial arts.

But as the saying goes, the better the technique, the more difficult it is to cultivate.

In reality, if you rely on your own hard work, you won't even be able to get close to the threshold in less than three to five years.

Fortunately, he's now very wealthy!

Looking at the desire value on the panel that had just surged to 3200 points, Chen You felt very confident.

"First, exchange 3000 Desire Points for 3000 days!!"

As Chen You silently uttered a thought, the Desire Beads emitted a dazzling golden light, and their immense energy circulated wildly.

Three thousand days, which translates to more than eight long years, are transformed in an instant within this magical space.

The cultivation officially begins!

For the first few months, Chen You stood on the riverbank, practicing the famous moves over and over again.

The Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm technique emphasizes fierceness and ruthlessness, moving like thunder. Each strike should carry the murderous aura of a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.

However, the techniques of second-rate martial arts are extremely complicated to generate power. The power cannot be exerted by the techniques alone. In fact, he even caused his blood and qi to surge and his wrists to ache several times when he exerted the wrong power.

Chen You remained calm, gritting her teeth as she continuously corrected her posture and breathing rhythm amidst the illusions of sunrise and sunset.

One month, two months, three months...

One day in the sixth month, Chen You stood on the riverbank, his eyes suddenly opened, and a fierce and imposing aura, like that of a tiger, burst forth from his gaze.

He roared, took a step forward, and fiercely slammed his palm into the river!

"boom!"

The force of this palm strike sent the river water soaring up to a height of ten feet!

In the sixth month, the Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm strikes!

I've finally gotten the hang of it!

After getting started, it's just endless mechanical repetition.

As the first year passed, Chen You's palms, through years of striking and exerting force, became increasingly resilient, and the wind from his palms gradually produced a muffled sound of breaking through the air.

The following year, his palm strikes became faster and faster, as still as a virgin and as swift as thunder, with no hesitation between his moves.

That year, the Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm technique naturally progressed to a level of proficiency.

By the third year, Chen You had gained a deeper understanding of this technique.

He no longer adhered to rigid movements, but instead integrated all his muscles, bones, and blood into one.

With a single palm strike, it felt as if a black tiger descending from the mountain was roaring behind him, unstoppable!

That year, he finally mastered the Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm technique to a minor level!

However, the further you go, the more difficult it becomes to break through.

In the fourth year, Chen You practiced diligently day and night by the river, swinging his palm hundreds and thousands of times, creating air bursts with the force of his palm strikes, but he always felt that something was missing.

In the fifth year, exposed to wind and sun, Chen You's consciousness was constantly honed in the long, lonely years, pushing the Lesser Completion realm to its extreme.

The sixth year, the seventh year...

Chen You was completely immersed in the profound mysteries of martial arts, even forgetting the passage of time.

Finally, after striking hundreds of thousands of times, he had a sudden inspiration. His blood and qi erupted like a volcano, and his palms became as black as iron. With a single strike, the river in front of him was forcibly stopped for a moment by the force of his palm!

Mastery! The Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm technique has finally reached its mastery level!

Chen You was overjoyed and was just about to press on to try and glimpse the legendary realm of perfection when the scene before him began to shake violently.

More than eight years and 3000 days of training were completely exhausted at this moment!

As the void collapsed, Chen You sighed softly. Although it was a pity that he could not push it to perfection in one fell swoop, the fact that he could cultivate a second-rate technique to the point of mastery in just one night was already an extremely terrifying achievement.

As his consciousness returned to his body, Chen You opened his eyes on the bed, feeling the fierce palm force within his body that could tear apart an enemy at any moment, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

He felt that his hands were different.

hard!

It's incredibly hard!

Upon arriving in the courtyard, he casually picked up a pebble with his right hand.

"Bang!"

A pebble the size of a fingernail was crushed into tiny pieces in an instant.

"My grip strength is extraordinary!"

Then, he looked at his own information on the rosary beads.

Chen You: 19 years old

[Cultivation Level: Late Stage of Rank Two]

[Skill: Fishing Techniques (Minor Mastery)]

[Technique: Three Yang Fist (Perfect)]

[Exercise Method: Blood-Strengthening Breathing Exercise (Minor Success)]

Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Palm: Second-rate skill (Mastery)

"Late stage of Rank 2."

Chen You sighed, after all, it had taken more than eight years.

The next day, Chen You arrived at the martial arts school early, hoping to find out about Fang Zheng's death.

To his surprise, it didn't happen.

No one knew that Fang Zheng was dead.

There was no mention of Luo Yan's incident.

"It seems that Luo Yan and Yang Zhenzhen have been keeping it a secret."

Watching Luo Yan and Yang Zhenzhen talking in the backyard, Chen You's mind raced: "Investigate information about my surroundings."
