Zombies: Cultivating Immortality at Maoshan, Becoming Stronger by Doing Nothing

Chapter 828

After saying that, Zhao Dalong led the two young men toward another house.

Ling Yanyan was unaware of Zhao Dalong's conspiracy. He was sitting cross-legged in his room, beginning to circulate the Body Tempering Technique to heal his injuries.

After his meridians were shattered, Ling Yan Yan fell into a coma and only woke up now, having no time to check his injuries.

Fortunately, he was in excellent physical condition and recovered from his injuries very quickly.

A moment later, Ling Yanyan opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air.

"Phew, I'm finally healed!" Ling Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief, a look of excitement flashing in his eyes.

After suffering severe injuries and falling into a coma, the spiritual energy within his body condensed considerably again.

"At this rate of recovery, it won't be long before I break through to the Transformation Realm." Ling Yanyan's eyes burned with fervor.

"Hmm? What is this?" Just then, Ling Yanyan noticed a pale purple liquid flowing in his dantian, wriggling like a living thing.

"This is vital energy?" Ling Yanyan was taken aback.

He remembered that before he fainted, the burly man had said that he had a special energy within him, and this pale purple liquid must be that energy.

"Could this be the legendary internal energy?" Ling Yanyan thought with some excitement. "If I could possess internal energy, then I could use all sorts of martial arts techniques."

"Moreover, the more profound one's internal energy, the stronger and more powerful the attack!"

"In this way, we can make up for the difference in physical strength!"

Ling Yanyan pondered, his eyes gradually brightening.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once missed, it will be incredibly difficult to regain inner strength in the future!

"Regardless of whether this pale purple liquid is my destiny, I must seize it!" Ling Yanyan's gaze was resolute, and he made up his mind.

"what?"

Suddenly, Ling Yan Yan frowned slightly, feeling a faint coolness surging through his body, which made him feel very comfortable. It was as if his whole body became clear and his energy and spirit were boosted.

"What's going on? Why do I feel so warm all over?" Ling Yanyan asked in confusion. "Has my illness been cured?"

However, after carefully examining his body, he discovered that it wasn't what he had imagined.

"Strange, how could this be?" Ling Yanyan was a little confused.

"Could it be because of cultivation?"

With a thought, Ling Yanyan mobilized the pale purple mist within his body, slowly drawing it into his dantian.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a thunderous sound exploded in Ling Yanyan's mind, like a bolt from the blue.

Ling Yanyan's body trembled violently. Then, his head felt like it was splitting open, and his brain was boiling.

Moreover, Ling Yanyan was even more horrified to discover that the pale purple mist in his dantian was expanding and growing at an alarming rate.

Originally only the size of a thumb, it instantly transformed into a liquid metal sphere the size of a pigeon egg, emitting a hazy, pale purple glow.

"Crack."

As the pale purple droplets continued to compress, a layer of pale red electric arcs appeared on Ling Yanyan's body surface.

"Hiss!" Ling Yanyan couldn't help but gasp.

"Such powerful strength!" Ling Yanyan was overjoyed, but at the same time felt somewhat confused. "Wait, what's this liquid?"

"boom."

Suddenly, Ling Yanyan heard a loud bang beside his ear.

"Damn it!" Ling Yanyan's expression changed drastically. "The Body Tempering Technique has failed!"

"Whoosh!" Ling Yanyan hurriedly activated the pale purple liquid droplet in his dantian, circulating it wildly.

Unfortunately, the pale purple droplet seemed to be bound by some force, unable to leave his body. Instead, it darted around inside him, seemingly trying to crash into and destroy his body.

Ling Yanyan could only desperately urge the true energy in his dantian to barely stop their rampage.

"Boom!"

However, Ling Yanyan's condition was clearly not optimistic. His bones creaked and groaned, as if they were enduring endless torment and were about to collapse completely at any moment.

"What exactly is going on?" Ling Yanyan was filled with shock.

He felt as if his body was about to explode, his internal organs felt like they were on fire, and every inch of his skin was being torn apart, making him wish he were dead.

Moreover, Ling Yanyan was surprised to find that his skin had become extremely rough, like parched land covered with mottled wrinkles.

"Is this aging?" Ling Yanyan's pupils shrank, revealing an expression of disbelief.

Although his body was weak, his skin was very healthy. How did he suddenly turn into the appearance of an old man?

"What kind of technique caused this?" Ling Yanyan's face turned pale. He had never seen such a bizarre technique before.

"Could it be martial arts?" Ling Yanyan's heart suddenly raced.

"Martial arts?" Ling Yanyan took a deep breath, a sense of longing in his heart.

This set of techniques can temper a martial artist's physique, making their body far stronger than that of other martial artists of the same level.

However, even the most ordinary martial arts apprentices among the martial arts masters possess physiques comparable to iron and stone.

Although Ling Yanyan's physique far surpasses that of his peers, it is only equivalent to the level of a novice martial artist.

"This martial art is too dangerous!" Ling Yanyan gritted his teeth. "It not only causes great damage to the body of martial arts apprentices, but also affects their lifespan and may even cause a martial artist's realm to drop."

The path of a martial artist is long and arduous. Severe injuries leave permanent scars that can never be repaired, accompanying the practitioner for life and preventing them from reaching higher levels of martial arts mastery.

"If I weren't forced to, I would never want to cultivate!"

Although Ling Yanyan's strength is currently low, he is full of longing for martial arts and is unwilling to stop here.

"However, the current situation leaves me no room for refusal!"

Ling Yan Yan remained silent for a long time before finally making a difficult decision.

"No matter how much damage this martial art has caused to my body, I must not give up!"

"Now, the only way is to repair the body."
