161: Chapter 161 Guiding the Way, Reshaping the Laws of Extreme Cold

Jiang Feng, after swallowing dozens of bottles of Advanced Blood Qi Pill, was so overwhelmed by the massive medicinal power that he passed out in the guest room. He was digesting energy sufficient to burst an ordinary person.

In the first-floor living room, Su Chen sat on the sofa, eyes closed, resting.

"Knock, knock, knock." A light knocking sound rang out in the night.

Su Chen opened his eyes. Without getting up, he calmly spat out two words: "Enter."

The villa door was pushed open. A night breeze mixed with bone-chilling cold blew in.

Lin Qinghan, wearing a thin white robe, walked into the living room.

Her beautiful face was deathly pale. Although the cast had been removed from her right arm, it was still somewhat stiff.

"I'm here." Lin Qinghan walked to Su Chen and stood still.

In those cold eyes, a kind of unprecedented fanaticism was burning. "You promised me. Teach me."

Su Chen sat on the sofa, his gaze sweeping over her body. "Your internal injuries haven't fully healed yet."

"But my martial path has already reached a dead end." Lin Qinghan gritted her teeth and, without hesitation, pulled open the collar of her robe.

On her snow-white collarbone and shoulders, there were cracks of blue-purple frostbite scars!

"My SSS-grade Ice Law is too strong. Every time I exert it at full power, this strength backlashes against my Meridians and Physical Body."

A trace of unwillingness flashed in Lin Qinghan's eyes. "When encountering monsters that are immune to elements, I don't even have the strength to resist. My Physical Body simply cannot withstand this power!"

She set aside all the pride belonging to a Prodigy of the Great Xia. She bowed deeply and respectfully to Su Chen.

"Please, teach me!"

Su Chen looked at her. "The martial path of the Great Xia has gone astray."

Su Chen spoke calmly, pointing out the most fatal flaw of this high-martial world in one sentence. Lin Qinghan raised her head abruptly, her face full of shock.

"You only know how to mindlessly absorb spiritual energy and then madly release it outward." Su Chen stood up and walked in front of Lin Qinghan.

"Treating the body as a bucket to hold water."

"No matter how big the bucket is, if the material is made of paper, once the water boils, the bucket will naturally break."

"True powerhouses shouldn't treat their bodies as containers. They should be weapons."

Su Chen's eyes sharpened: "Cross your legs and sit down."

Lin Qinghan did not hesitate at all. She turned her back to Su Chen and sat cross-legged on the solid wood floor of the living room.

"I will teach you a basic technique called [Life Return]. Its core is to control your consciousness precisely to every inch of your muscles, every blood vessel, and even every cell!"

"Now, close your eyes and restrain all your spiritual energy!" Su Chen stood behind her and slowly raised his right hand.

"Hum—!" Deep, mysterious black Armament Haki instantly covered Su Chen's right palm.

Immediately after, wisps of dark red [Ryuo] energy were frantically spitting and jumping in his palm!

"Next, it will be very painful."

"If you can't endure it, get out."

The moment the words fell! Su Chen showed no mercy!

His right palm, wrapped in violent Ryuo, slapped down extremely domineeringly onto Lin Qinghan's fair back!

"Bang!" A dull, loud noise.

"Urgh—!!!" Lin Qinghan's eyes widened abruptly, and a shrill, miserable groan escaped her throat!

It was too painful! This dark red, domineering energy was like burning hot steel needles, piercing directly through her skin and flesh! It rushed violently into her limbs and bones!

"Suppress it!" Su Chen's cold, stern voice exploded in Lin Qinghan's ear.

The dark Ryuo energy rampaged within her body. Extremely brutally, it drove the loose ice spiritual energy that was backlashing against her Meridians together like herding sheep!

"Do not release it!" Su Chen's right hand exerted force suddenly.

"Force this ice into your bone marrow! Into your muscle fibers!"

The Ryuo transformed into an invisible hammer. Inside Lin Qinghan's body, it began a brutal forging process!

"Crack! Crack crack!" The bones all over Lin Qinghan's body let out unbearable cracking sounds.

The extreme cold Ice Law was forcibly suppressed by the Armament Haki. Bit by bit, it was deeply branded into the depths of her cells.

Beads of cold sweat instantly soaked her robe.

Pain! Agonizing pain that went deep into the Soul! It felt as if someone was smashing her bones inch by inch, then mixing them with ice shards and gluing them back together!

Lin Qinghan bit her lower lip hard. Blood flowed down the corners of her mouth and dripped onto the floor.

But she endured it firmly, not even making another scream! This woman's willpower was terrifyingly strong.

Five minutes; for Lin Qinghan, these five minutes felt like a long century.

"Huu." Su Chen withdrew his right palm. The black energy and dark red Ryuo covering his hand instantly dissipated into his body.

"Done." Su Chen said calmly.

Lin Qinghan collapsed on the floor, gasping for breath. She was soaked through, as if she had just been fished out of water.

But after resting for only ten seconds, Lin Qinghan pushed herself up from the ground!

She stared blankly at her hands. The bone-chilling cold that used to overflow was gone. All the extreme cold power was perfectly locked beneath her skin and flesh!

She tried to clench her fist.

"Crack!" The air was actually squeezed into a sonic boom by her grip!

Lin Qinghan was shocked to the extreme! She felt that her Physical Body strength had increased by at least three times in just five minutes!

Along with it, her control over the Ice Law became unprecedentedly solid and lethal! The frost attached to her bones made every punch she threw carry an extreme, restrained killing intent!

"If I were to encounter that Obsidian Behemoth now..." A sharp light burst from Lin Qinghan's eyes.

She turned her head abruptly. The look she gave Su Chen was no longer just awe. It was as if she were looking up to a deity who had pioneered a brand-new martial era!

"What is this Martial Skill..." Lin Qinghan's voice trembled.

"Just a little foundation." Su Chen walked to the table, picked up a pen, and quickly wrote down a training plan on a piece of paper.

"I have only demonstrated this method of cell control once. The rest depends on your own Satori." "This list is the physical training plan for you and the fatty."

Su Chen slapped the paper on the table.

Lin Qinghan walked over and glanced at it; her pupils shrank sharply.

[Hundred-fold Gravity Room, ten thousand weighted squats daily.] [No spiritual energy allowed, pure Physical Body combat against Tier 3 exotic beasts.]

This was simply a Hell-level self-abuse plan!

"While I'm away from school, keep an eye on that fatty; he isn't allowed to eat until he finishes training." Su Chen picked up a pure black trench coat draped over the sofa and put it on.

"You're leaving?" Lin Qinghan was stunned. "Where to?"

Su Chen didn't answer. He took out a brand-new, green-faced, fanged evil ghost mask from the pocket of his trench coat.

That was the Shura mask he had asked Jiang Feng to buy again at the black market before entering the capital.

"Click." Su Chen snapped the mask onto his face.

The moment the mask clicked into place, the calm and indifferent Su Chen in the school disappeared.

Replacing him was the terrifying Shura who had killed through mountains of corpses and seas of blood in the wilderness!

"To collect a blood debt from eighteen years ago."

Su Chen pulled open the villa door. The night wind blew up the hem of his black trench coat.

He didn't stop for a moment. His figure flashed like black lightning, instantly disappearing into the vast night of the capital.

The rusty iron ring hidden in his inner pocket grew slightly warm. The faint aura of the Pirate Origin guided the direction.
