With a thought, Su Wu reopened the Book of a Hundred Lifetimes in his mind from back to front.

The illustrations of the Six-Tailed Fox and Qin Poyue above were quietly shimmering with a faint light.

[A Hundred Generations of Pictorial Records:]

Illustrated Guide: Six-Tailed Fox Demon

Strength: Sixth level of Qi Condensation

Experience: He was arrested in the Demon Suppression Prison for harming people by absorbing their yang energy, and died after his true yin energy was drained by the prison guard Su Wu.

Inclusion Reward: 10 Blood Essence/Hour (50 already stored)

[A Hundred Generations of Pictorial Records:]

Illustrated Guide: Qin Poyue

Strength: Seventh level of the Qi Opening Realm

Background: A former general who was captured in the Demon Suppression Prison while escorting a former princess. He attempted suicide in the prison but was beheaded by the jailer Su Wu.

Inclusion Reward: 20 Blood Essence/Hour (100 already stored)

After five hours of tempering, the fox demon and Qin Poyue's catalog provided him with a total of 150 blood essence.

"One hundred and fifty units of blood essence."

"After last night's tempering of the cold poison within my body, I'm only 100 points away from breaking through to the next level. 150 is enough!"

Looking at the amount of blood essence on the two catalogs in his field of vision, Su Wu did not hesitate at all. He directly chose to collect it and added it to his realm column.

With the addition of Su Wu's blood essence, the familiar power of blood and qi once again surged into his limbs and bones, spreading out into his meridians and flesh.

Fortunately, Su Wu was already experienced. The moment the blood essence surged into his body, he immediately closed his eyes, concentrated, and began to circulate the basic demon-suppressing pillar to guide the blood and qi in his body.

After a short period of tempering, all of this blood essence was transformed into martial arts cultivation within Su Wu's body.

A surge of even more powerful energy erupted from his chest, and his muscles became denser, making him feel the wind whistling around him with every punch.

The original second level of Body Tempering also changed at this moment.

[Realm: Third level of body tempering (50/400)]

Seeing that he had already entered the third level of Body Tempering, Su Wu's eyes were filled with a gleaming light.

"He's reached the third level of Body Tempering!"

Now, Su Wu is confident enough to face someone like Li Hong, and is no longer as powerless to resist as before.

Even with the help of the Mountain-Breaking Blade, Su Wu was confident he could kill him.

"But for me now, Li Hong is just a small part of the threat."

"Wu Er and Chen Duo are the real big shots."

Because of his low level of martial arts cultivation, Su Wu was unable to sense the cultivation levels of Wu Er and Chen Duo.

However, Su Wu judged that Wu Er, as the shackle-bearer, should be at the level of Body Tempering and Bone Forging.

As for Chen Duo, he has most likely already reached the Qi Condensation stage, just like the six-tailed fox demon before he was captured.

With this thought in mind, Su Wu felt a renewed sense of urgency and quickly got out of bed to begin another round of standing meditation.

You must seize every opportunity to become stronger in order to survive in this cannibalistic world.

Then, Su Wu stood firmly in the stance, circulating the pure Yang energy within his body to begin refining the cold poison within.

Sensing the noise coming from the dormitory room, Liu Dashan, who was sleeping, couldn't help but turn around, look at Su Wu who was standing in a stance, and mutter to himself.

"Be careful, this cultivation is too complicated."

"You start torturing yourself early in the morning, aren't you afraid of exhausting your pure yang energy?"

Hearing Liu Dashan's words, Su Wu then focused his attention on the pure yang energy in his dantian.

Then it was discovered that this pure yang energy had begun to wear down slightly during the process of refining the external yin energy and the internal cold poison, and was no longer as robust as before.

"It seems that while practicing the Demon-Suppressing Stake can improve one's cultivation, it also invisibly depletes one's true yang."

"Prolonged practice will inevitably damage one's foundation."

"It seems I need to find some ways to replenish the true yang in my body while practicing standing meditation."

However, those are all things for later. For Su Wu right now, his most important task is to seize the time to cultivate and become stronger.

While pondering, Su Wu unknowingly practiced standing meditation for about two hours.

Through these two hours of cultivation, the cold poison in his body was reduced significantly, and he felt much lighter.

"This way of cultivation saves me the trouble of finding those Yin and evil energies myself."

"But I don't know how long this cold poison in my body can last."

The cold poison within Su Wu's body has now become the source of Yin energy during his cultivation.

Before this, the cold poison in his body had always been a major concern for Su Wu, and he always wanted to get rid of it.

But now, having enjoyed the benefits that this cold poison brought him, he was actually somewhat reluctant to let the cold poison in his body disappear.

However, Su Wu knew in his heart that this mere cold ailment could not withstand his long-term refining.

It won't be long before these cold poisons are completely refined and eliminated by myself.

When that time comes, I will need to find a new source of Yin energy.

"I never imagined that one day I would feel reluctant to part with the cold poison in my body."

During these two hours of cultivation, Su Wu's qi and blood increased by about 50, and his realm changed once again.

Realm: Third level of body tempering (110/400)

Seeing his cultivation level improve, Su Wu couldn't help but show a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

"My Qi and Blood have increased by about 60 points, breaking the 100 mark."

"Thus, I only need 290 more units of Qi and Blood to break through the third level of Body Tempering and enter the fourth level."

"I just don't know if this cultivation speed is considered fast in this Demon Suppression Prison."

As he pondered, Su Wu began to feel his spirits waning and his limbs aching.

"It's almost time to rest."

The practice of the basic demon-suppressing stance will consume one's mental and physical energy. After a certain period of practice, it is necessary to take a break to avoid overexerting one's body.

But whether or not his body was overdrawn was not that important to Su Wu.

If it weren't for the need to take over the night shift and prevent any unexpected incidents, I would have liked to practice a little longer.

Due to extreme physical exhaustion, Su Wu fell asleep quickly after leaning against the pillow.

After an unknown amount of time, a loud knocking sound came from the dormitory door, waking Su Wu from his sleep.

"Who is it?" Liu Dashan, whose sweet dream had been disturbed, got up and opened the door with some displeasure, then quickly put on a smile.

"Wu Dianli, you've arrived."

At this point, Liu Dashan quickly spoke to Su Wu on the iron bed.

"Young Su, Clerk Wu is here to see you. Aren't you getting up?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wu quickly got off the bed and bowed respectfully to Wu Er.

"I have met Clerk Wu."

Looking at Su Wu's somewhat listless face, Wu Er looked at Su Wu with a half-smile.

"You look listless. Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Faced with Wu Er's question, Su Wu reached out and touched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Liu Dashan, who was standing to the side, quickly tried to make amends.

"Clerk, this kid killed someone for the first time yesterday, and he's been having nightmares all night and can't sleep well."

"That's why I haven't gotten up so late. Please forgive me for neglecting Clerk Wu."
