Chapter 25 Becoming a Villain, Breakthrough in the Profound Qi Technique
"hiss……"
Bai Sheng stared at the locust tree branch in his hand, lost in thought.
How do you carve a little person?
That's actually quite difficult.
Although the text on the curse states that there are no strict requirements regarding the appearance of the finished product.
But Baek Seung-jin has no artistic talent.
Not to mention his primary and junior high school art teachers, who were in very poor health.
He almost never comes to class...
Bai Sheng sighed and took out his phone.
I opened the forum, hoping to find an art student from my school to help me.
"We still need to be careful..."
Bai Sheng couldn't help but recall the anime he watched as a child.
Death Notebook
Although it's unlikely that a genius detective like L exists in reality,
However, the more people involved, the easier it is to be targeted.
He was unwilling to take any potential risks.
"Forget it, I'll figure it out myself."
Bai Sheng pulled a utility knife from the drawer.
He found another pencil, sat down at the table, and examined the entire tree branch.
The locust tree branches are not very straight.
With a slight, natural curve,
About the thickness of a thumb, with grayish-brown skin.
I have absolutely no idea where to start.
"Sigh, ask my assistant."
Bai Sheng took out his phone.
I opened Dousha AI and typed a line of text:
Please provide me with a simple tutorial on carving locust wood...
five minutes later,
Bai Sheng carefully used a knife to cut off a small piece of skin.
The exposed pale yellow-white wood has a fine texture.
He first used a pencil to roughly draw the outline of the little figure on the branch.
The position of the head, the length of the torso, the bifurcation points of the limbs...
After finishing the drawing, he used a craft knife to make the first cut.
The blade slowly cut into the bark.
It went more smoothly than he had imagined.
The innate control over the finger joints brought about by grappling techniques.
His fingers were remarkably steady.
The knife moves in a straight line, without deviating or wobbling.
After the bark was peeled off, the moist, white wood underneath was revealed.
Half an hour passed...
Bai Sheng faced the table lamp.
He held the wooden figure up to his eyes and examined it closely.
Objectively speaking,
From a distance, this face barely resembles a human being.
The downside is that it looks like it's been stung by a wasp up close.
However, the art of cursing only requires a resemblance in appearance.
The key is the next step.
He took a needle and wiped the tip with an alcohol swab.
Take a deep breath.
The original text in the book describes the finger-prick blood step very casually.
The needle was inserted...
"Holy crap!"
Bai Sheng was stunned for a moment.
Looking down, I saw that my index finger was completely unharmed.
The needle, however, had bent, like a fishhook...
Bai Sheng understood; he had mastered the Innate Grappling Technique to perfection.
Its skin and flesh were exceptionally tough, even more resilient than old cowhide.
Let alone needles,
Even with a regular knife, you really can't pierce it unless you cut hard...
He then rummaged through the drawer and pulled out a spare sewing needle.
They replaced it with a thicker one.
I aimed at my finger and poked it again.
The needle tip slipped on my fingertip.
He gritted his teeth and increased his strength.
needle...
It finally broke.
"..."
Bai Sheng silently threw the broken needle into the trash can.
He leaned back in his chair, feeling utterly helpless.
He realized that the matter was more complicated than he had imagined.
Even the thickest ordinary needle can't pierce his skin.
The breakthrough point is not in the needle itself...
Bai Sheng suddenly remembered the red-glowing energy emanating from his finger joints.
When he activated the Innate Grappling Technique...
The energy emanating from his fingertips shot out and into the tattooed man's palm.
The force of the energy could even crush the palm bones of a strong man.
What would happen if we reversed the flow of energy and forcibly confined it to the needle?
Enhanced Qi Needle
Wouldn't that allow it to be pierced through?
Bai Sheng steadied himself and mentally guided the flow of energy in his grappling technique.
But instead of releasing them outwards, they began to collect them inwards.
He picked up the needle for the fourth time.
The needle tip, enhanced by the internal energy, pierced the skin with almost no resistance this time.
Blood seeped from the eye of the needle.
Bai Sheng gently dripped blood onto the wooden dummy's chest and smeared it.
Blood seeped into the wood grain, leaving a dark red mark.
Basically completed.
Bai Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
The entire wooden figure was covered with an upside-down cardboard box.
Next,
Simply drip blood once in the morning and once in the evening.
Seven days later, the little man will be considered to be in its initial stages of completion!
Bai Sheng followed the same method and made two little figures.
With the experience gained the first time, the rest of the process went quite smoothly.
……
After doing all that, it was already afternoon.
Bai Sheng had no plans to go to school, so he ordered takeout and ate.
I'll continue to stay home and stay in bed.
After a wonderful afternoon nap.
Bai Sheng didn't even have the mind to watch short videos.
I took out my Chinese textbook.
Let's turn back to the page with chapter four of the "Tao Te Ching".
I sat cross-legged back on the bed, leaned against the headboard, and silently recited the mantra from beginning to end once more.
The first level of the Mysterious Qi Technique is to circulate Qi within the Dantian.
The second layer begins by discussing upholding the center and returning to the root.
This means repeatedly compressing and condensing the scattered energy, removing the dross and retaining the essence.
He had only practiced the basics before, and although the energy in his dantian could circulate...
But it's not refined or pure enough.
With a thought, Bai Sheng brought up his cultivation panel.
[Cultivation Points: 11]
Staring at [Mysterious Qi Technique (Beginner): 0/5]+
With a slight mental touch, I clicked the plus sign at the end, just once.
Bai Sheng didn't dare to move again.
After all, the feeling of adding five points in a row before was just too exciting.
Bai Sheng felt it was better to proceed gradually and steadily.
The moment the cultivation point disappeared,
A slight warmth spread through my lower abdomen.
This time, the feeling is more like,
Someone bit a lighter three inches below their navel.
A fleeting, extremely light and still moment of warmth passed by.
Then the warmth slowly spread out, turning into an extremely thin warm film on the inner wall of the dantian.
The dantian itself is a small fireball.
The surface of this fireball is now evenly coated with a warm, thin film.
The energy that was originally scattered at the edges was gradually gathered in.
The amount of internal energy did not increase.
But both density and texture have taken a small step forward.
Your breathing will adjust automatically accordingly.
But with each inhale, the air I took in was a fraction deeper than before.
Press it directly into the dantian area.
It collided with that compressed burst of energy.
Bai Sheng closed his eyes.
Carefully observe the changes between the initial stage and the minor mastery of the Profound Qi Technique, this half-step progression.
The internal energy cultivated by the Profound Qi Technique, when compressed and condensed to its extreme,
It is no longer a scattered feeling of energy.
It will then condense into true energy.
If one takes the next step forward in cultivating true qi, one will cultivate innate true qi.
When it comes to that point,
According to Taoist texts, only then can one be considered to have formally "entered the Tao".
Enter the Tao!
These two words made Bai Sheng's tongue roll around on his lips.
After entering the Dao, one becomes a cultivator.
To ordinary people, they are immortals!
Immortal
How tempting those two words are!
Bai Sheng felt that he had never been so eager to accomplish anything.
Reposition your legs and bring up the control panel.
Stare at the plus sign after 【Mysterious Qi Technique (Minor Success)】,
He gritted his teeth.
Reason told him he should take it easy.
Let's digest this for a while before talking about it.
But in the dantian,
That mass of energy that had already been compressed once,
It is still slowly turning.
Each turn felt like a silent urging on him.
Just one step away...
Don't let the fighting stop...
