Chapter 79: Lungs Tempered, Breath Like Thunder!
"Your offspring, Gu Yang, has gained insight and advanced to the Mid-Stage Blood Refinement Realm during battle!"
"Reward: 30 Enhancement Points!"
"Reward: 40 Bone Tempering Pills!"
"Reward: 10 Marrow Washing Pills!"
"Reward: Secret Technique: Blade Nurturing Art!"
...
Gu Qingfeng was originally immersed in the Grandmaster True Intent when he suddenly saw the notifications on his status panel. His expression flickered with surprise.
"Yang has broken through!"
While Gu Qingfeng was somewhat surprised by Gu Yang's breakthrough, he also found it reasonable.
Recently, Gu Yang had been wreaking havoc in White Stone Path, slaying every enemy who dared to challenge him. Such intense life-and-death battles naturally greatly refined his martial arts.
Therefore, Gu Yang's breakthrough was entirely expected.
Immediately, Gu Qingfeng glanced at his own status panel.
...

...
In recent days, Gu Qingfeng had been focusing on cultivating the Qingyang Art and the Five Organs Scripture.
The former was self-explanatory.
As for the latter, this organ-tempering martial art was different from ordinary martial arts.
The Five Organs Scripture is divided into five levels, and the prerequisite for cultivation is to have a perfected Marrow Washing state.
It's simple.
Because the cultivation methods before organ tempering are not recorded in the Five Organs Scripture.
Furthermore, unlike other martial arts, the Five Organs Scripture does not have minor or major achievements. Each level is achieved by tempering a specific organ.
Once all five organs are tempered, the Five Organs Scripture is perfected.
Thanks to Gu Qingfeng's already tempered heart, he found it relatively easy to cultivate the Five Organs Scripture, quickly reaching the first level.
When he achieved the first level of the Five Organs Scripture, Gu Qingfeng could feel subtle changes in his heart, making it even stronger than before.
Unfortunately, while the first level of the Five Organs Scripture was easy to achieve, he had yet to reach the threshold for the second level.
Each level corresponds to a specific organ, and achieving it is no simple task.
However, with Gu Yang's breakthrough bringing enhancement points, Gu Qingfeng could save a lot of effort.
With a thought, he immediately spent twenty enhancement points to advance the Five Organs Scripture to the second level.
Instantly, a flood of memories surged into his mind.
A mysterious force emerged from his body and autonomously fused with one of his organs.
His internal organs were tempered, and Gu Qingfeng felt his blood and qi becoming even more vigorous.
In a moment, the second level of the Five Organs Scripture was completed.
At the moment of achieving the second level, a mysterious aura connected with his heart, and the surging blood and qi flowed through his entire body like a river.
Power surged through his body, and Gu Qingfeng opened his eyes, expelling a breath that sounded like rolling thunder, stirring a powerful gale.
"Lungs tempered!"
"Exhale like thunder!"
"Excellent, excellent, excellent! It’s true that each step in the path of a martial artist who focuses on organ tempering is a leap in power. Now that I’ve reached the second realm of organ tempering, my strength has increased by at least fifty percent!"
Gu Qingfeng’s eyes flashed with determination.
With his power breakthrough, his confidence soared.
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng looked at the remaining ten enhancement points and immediately upgraded the Qingyang Art.
...
Spending two enhancement points, the Qingyang Art broke through to the third level!
...
Spending two more enhancement points, the Qingyang Art broke through to the fourth level!
...
Spending two more enhancement points, the Qingyang Art reached the fifth level!
...
In no time at all, Gu Qingfeng had elevated the Qingyang Art from the second level to the fifth level.
This step brought the Qingyang Art to its peak at the Blood Tempering stage. Advancing further would require breaking through to the Bone Tempering stage.
At the fifth level, the Qingyang Art pushed his Pure Yang Blood Qi to the fourth rank.
This meant that the Pure Yang Blood Qi flowing through his body had become even stronger, though the change was still minimal compared to his current power.
However, a martial artist’s strength is built on incremental improvements.
Even if a martial technique only boosts one’s power by one percent, combining hundreds or thousands of such techniques can lead to an astonishing level of power.
Quantity eventually leads to quality.
"Phew!"
"Unfortunately, I’m a bit short on enhancement points. Otherwise, I could have pushed the Qingyang Art to the sixth level!"
Gu Qingfeng shook his head slightly as he looked at the remaining four enhancement points.
At the Blood Tempering stage, each level requires two points.
At the Bone Tempering stage, each level requires five points.
Further up, the Marrow Washing stage requires ten points per level, and the Organ Tempering stage requires twenty points per level.
However, compared to the points needed to break through limits, the current cost of advancing martial techniques is much lower.
Back when he broke the limits of the Heavenly Gang Divine Body, it required forty points to reach the first realm of Organ Tempering. Breaking to the second realm would have required eighty points.
In contrast, with a complete Organ Tempering martial technique, advancing from the peak of Marrow Washing to the peak of Organ Tempering would only require a hundred points.
However, Gu Qingfeng didn’t regret using his enhancement points to break through limits back then.
If he hadn’t reached the Organ Tempering stage, he might not have been able to intimidate the people from the Evil Suppression Bureau.
So, it was better to convert resources into strength immediately rather than hoard them.
Next, when Gu Qingfeng looked at the Master’s True Intent, a myriad of insights flooded his mind, and the image of the Mountain Splitting Blade Technique reappeared before his eyes.
All his accumulated knowledge and understanding converged in this moment.
After a long while, Gu Qingfeng withdrew his gaze from the Master’s True Intent and smiled.
"Overlord Blade Slash!"
"So this is the Overlord Blade Slash!"
"This is truly a double blessing!"
Not only had he broken through in cultivation, but he had also seized a fleeting moment of insight and fully comprehended the Overlord Blade Slash.
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng truly understood the power of a Master’s ultimate technique.
Then, he looked at his attribute panel.
The information for the Overlord Blade Slash was now clearly displayed.
...
Overlord Blade Slash (Beginner, Overlord True Intent Level 6)!
