In the evening, Dugu Yifeng walked all the way to the center of the village.

Passing by the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, Dugu Yifeng's eyes narrowed and he furrowed his brows, as if he had seen something that he did not want to see. After that, he stretched his brows, "Why should I keep this kind of thing in my heart?" With a chuckle, he walked home

" Yo, isn't this our Dugu Family's young master? Why didn't he greet the big guy when he saw him! " Just as Dugu Yifeng was about to leave, a youth with an arrogant expression stood on the martial ring and spoke to Dugu Yifeng with a mocking tone.

The youth's face immediately stiffened, looking somewhat awkward.

He then became angry from embarrassment and said, "Dugu Yifeng, what are you looking at? Do you want to get a beating?"

"Oh, you want to fight me?" Dugu Yifeng replied indifferently.

"Hahaha... I want to fight with you, and you, Dugu Yifeng, think too highly of yourself. Yesterday, I had already broken through to the third level of the Fighter realm, and you, a mere Fighter level 1, actually said that I want to fight with you! Hahaha... "Good, good, good. I, Li Hongze, will teach you a lesson in place of your parents!"

"Humph!" When Dugu Yifeng saw this, he coldly snorted and did not move. His fist quickly flew towards Dugu Yifeng's face.

In a split-second, Dugu Yifeng bent both of his legs and swept his right leg backwards. At the same time, he used all his strength to sweep upwards with his upper body thrown backwards. All of this happened in a split-second. The kick landed directly on Li Hongze's waist, and he was directly kicked back to the martial arts practice field.

In the eyes of the others in the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, all of this was simply unbelievable. Dugu Yifeng's movements were as smooth and as smooth as flowing clouds and flowing water. The bystanders were all dumbstruck, then they felt goosebumps all over their bodies. Looking at Li Hongze's miserable state, the fear in their hearts towards Dugu Yifeng grew even stronger.

Dugu Yifeng steadied his body and no longer cared about Li Hongze. To him, something like this wasn't even considered a fly. However, although he didn't want to pay attention to the fly, there was always a fly buzzing in your ear. Who could bear it!

"Didn't that Li Hongze say that he was Fighter 3-dan? That Dugu Yifeng was a Fighter 1-dan, how could he so easily take care of Li Hongze?"

"That's right, that Li Hongze really dares to brag. It's not that easy to break through to the fighter foundation level 10. In our village, only the village chief broke through to the Fighter level 3, and even he, Li Hongze, dares to say that he broke through to Fighter level 3."

At this time, the youth who spoke at the side was trembling as he walked towards Li Hongze. Looking at Li Hongze's badly mutilated appearance, he exclaimed, "Mother!" He was so scared that he shouted loudly before rolling and crawling away.

Dugu Yifeng, however, did not care about these things. His heart was thinking about his martial arts cultivation level.

Six years ago, after Dugu Yifeng had learned how to cultivate martial arts from his father, he had started on his own path of martial arts cultivation. He had thought that with the help of the rich Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in this world, he would be able to quickly recover to the martial arts state of his previous life.

However, Dugu Yifeng found out that he was suffering. The power he had accumulated through his hard work had disappeared into thin air. This caused Dugu Yifeng to jump in fright. In this world where martial arts reigned supreme, losing one's strength was akin to being a cripple.

After a careful examination, Dugu Yifeng found the culprit — the Blood Jade.

After carefully sensing his surroundings with his consciousness, Dugu Yifeng confirmed that his lost power was slowly being absorbed by the half piece of blood jade. Although the process of absorbing the blood jade was very covert, this was still his body.

Dugu Yifeng smiled bitterly in his heart and cursed Xie Yu for dying. He had thought of a way to snatch back some of his strength but was helpless to do so. He could only put his life on the line to cultivate and fight for some of his power.

After six years of continuous absorption by the blood jade, Dugu Yifeng's martial arts realm had only reached the peak of the first level of martial arts. It was the same as the average level of people his age, or even worse. However, for Dugu Yifeng, his strength was never something that a mere martial arts realm could represent. A person with that kind of idea would absolutely not end up any better than that Li Hongze.

Dugu Yifeng felt as if this piece of blood jade was like a vicious landowner, constantly exploiting people as if he was a small farmer. However, he himself was helpless to do anything about it. He could only nurture this little thing like a wet nurse.

However, Dugu Yifeng later discovered that with the continuous increase in his power and the increasing amount of spiritual energy the blood jade was absorbing, the rate at which the blood jade was absorbing his power had slowed down.

He reckoned that during these ten days to half a month, the blood jade's absorption of his energy would completely disappear. "At that time, I will finally be able to free myself …" Dugu Yifeng's heart was filled with beautiful fantasies.

… ….

Late at night, Dugu Yifeng sat cross-legged on his bed with his eyes closed. His entire consciousness was focused on the Qi sense within his dantian.

Compared to six years ago, this Qi sense had changed a lot. At a glance, the most obvious change was that it was no longer the Qi sense of the last time. Wisps of spirit energy twined around him, turning him into a purple color. This was all thanks to the blood jade. As for the blood jade, it could no longer be called a blood jade anymore. At the very least, it looked purple with a strange, blood-red color.

These six years, Dugu Yifeng's power had been devoured by the blood jade, but it was not completely without benefits. At the very least, the quality of his power had greatly improved, and Dugu Yifeng reckoned that his current power and quality would not lose out to those of his previous life.

In these six years, when he fought with the blood jade for the spiritual energy, the spiritual energy he stole from the blood jade would turn purple. As time passed, his spiritual energy became purple.

Dugu Yifeng unconsciously pushed the Qi sense through the Jade Cloud Meridians, circulating it in a continuous cycle. The Qi sense circulated faster and faster, snatching more and more spirit energy from the Blood Jade. The entire blood jade was filled with a feeling of pressure as it circulated at a high speed.

Slowly, the Qi traveled along his tendons and veins and was about to enter his dantian.

Then, the purple mist rushed to the entrance of his dantian.

Suddenly, the flow of the purple mist accelerated, and a stream of energy rushed into his dantian.

Rumble …

As the energy surged into his Dantian, it caused the Spiritual Aura within his Dantian to tremble. Then, the Spiritual Aura from the world from the outside immediately rushed into his Dantian.

Dugu Yifeng felt everything and opened his eyes. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile, "I've finally broken through. I'm at Fighter 2-dan!"
