Water Ink Panel: Starting with Bow Technique to Hunt the Sun and Patrol the Skies

```

Time flew.

In the blink of an eye, twenty days had passed, and it was the season of Li Chun.

The accumulated snow in Hongshan Village gradually melted away, and the occasional sporadic snowflakes mixed with rain could no longer accumulate.

Despite this, the warm spring had not yet arrived, and the weather was still annoyingly cold.

"Snap!"

In the bamboo forest, Shen Qing joined his hands together, pointing his arms forward like a whip.

With a crisp sound, Shen Qing's two fingers actually pierced directly into the emerald bamboo.

He withdrew his fingers, leaving two dark holes in the bamboo, as if they were punctures from the sharp teeth of a fierce beast.

Shen Qing looked down at his own fingers, somewhat disbelieving.

"So this is the strength of the Bone Refining Realm."

Shen Qing muttered to himself, delighted.

After returning to Hongshan Village last time, Shen Qing had dealt with all the trivial matters and had not gone back to the county town for over twenty consecutive days.

The task of hunting in the mountains had been handed over to Tian Xiaohu.

He had devoted his entire heart and energy into the cultivation of Martial Arts.

Through his days of relentless practice, he had finally achieved Small Success in the Wind Defying Finger, mastering all the techniques and the stretching skills of the finger.

In the process of continuous tempering, his muscles, bones, and flesh had been fully stretched.

By now, he could exert his strength as he desired and move it freely.

The moves of the Wind Defying Finger had begun to enter Entry Level.

Having reached this step, he had achieved Great Perfection of the Tendon Stretching Realm and became a martial master of the Bone Refining Realm.

Next was to continue increasing the strength of his bones throughout his body, reaching the so-called "Invincibility," and to enhance the lethal power of his moves.

Otherwise, the hardness of the flesh and blood body would never match that of hard stone and iron.

Besides that, another thing caught his attention was a new change in the Nine Skills he had been practicing.

With a thought, the Water Ink Panel appeared before his eyes.

[Skill: Nine Skills (Break Limit)]

[Progress: 501/500 points]

[Status: Upgradable]

[Note: Heaven rewards the diligent. Through continuous effort, your understanding of this Martial Arts has reached a new realm. Continue to break through, and you will comprehend a new Martial Arts.]

"A new Martial Arts."

Of all his skills, Nine Skills was the first to reach a Break Limit level of cultivation.

As it was a basic Martial Arts Skill with no thresholds, he practiced it frequently, and unexpectedly, it had produced such an effect.

It led him to a new understanding of the Water Ink Panel.

No one was around.

Shen Qing licked his lips, without any hesitation.

"Breakthrough!"

The status of Nine Skills on the Water Ink Panel quickly changed.

A brand-new Martial Arts name appeared before his eyes.

[Skill: Blood Dominance Technique (Entry Level)]

[Progress: 1/600 points]

[Status: Not Upgradable]

[Note: You have comprehended a new Martial Arts from the Nine Skills and possess an enormous amount of Qi-Blood that has broken through the limits of your body. Therefore, you have immense strength, your wounds heal at a rate far beyond ordinary people, and your constitution is robust.]

Hum!

Shen Qing's body suddenly shuddered, with various memories of cultivating the Blood Dominance Technique surfacing in his mind, causing him to clasp his head and groan in pain.

A multitude of memories converged, and in a certain fleeting moment, Shen Qing felt as though time had stopped for him, caught up in a loop of the memories linked to practicing the Nine Skills.

After an unknown number of cycles, he finally broke through, gaining an understanding of how to further strengthen his body through the exercises.

The nine stance training exercises he practiced merged into one, forging a single state.

This technique could raise the body's strength and the upper limit of Qi-Blood by eight or nine times, and was incredibly terrifying.

```

```

After ten breaths, Shen Qing felt the pain throughout his body slowly diminishing.

His muscles also began to twitch, and a sense of familiarity came from his legs.

Shen Qing looked down and suddenly found that his legs had undergone tremendous change, becoming exceptionally robust.

Muscles bulged on them like blocks of iron, straining his clothes.

Even his height had increased a notch.

Shen Qing stretched out his legs and with a fierce kick, a tree thick enough to be embraced by a person was directly snapped by his foot, yet he felt no pain whatsoever.

"Is this the power of the Blood Dominance Technique?"

Shen Qing could hardly believe it.

He extended two fingers, turning them into a sword gesture, and walked toward the direction of the tree.

This tree was a solid pine tree, very hard, far from comparable to bamboo.

Shen Qing exerted force in his fingers and pointed at the trunk of the pine tree.

Pu-chi.

A dull sound.

Shen Qing found his fingers had penetrated the pine tree like nails, the joints completely submerged.

Then an overpowering pain drilled through from the tips of his fingers.

Unperturbed, Shen Qing calmly pulled his fingers out.

Under his gaze, the two swollen fingers quickly returned to normal, and in the blink of an eye, they were as good as ever.

Shen Qing flexed his fingers without feeling any abnormalities.

"Very good, I feel like I might be even stronger than the elder martial brother."

Looking at his fingers which were now functioning normally without pain, Shen Qing showed a satisfied expression.

He tidied up casually and left.

Back at home, his older sister Shen Fang was busy with needlework, planning to make a few new pairs of shoes and clothes for Shen Qing.

Shen Qing originally didn't want her to do this, saying that she could buy whatever was needed with money.

But upon careful thought, there was really not much else for the women in the village to do, so he let her be.

"Huh!"

At this moment, the sound of wheels rolling suddenly appeared outside the house.

Shen Qing, holding a bowl, poured himself a cup of coarse tea, drank it all down in one gulp, and then set the bowl down and walked out.

Tian Xiaohu, whom he had sent to the city to sell mountain goods, happened to return at that moment.

Shen Qing patted the horse's back and asked, "How are things in the city nowadays?"

"A bit chaotic. With that incident that happened, the Guardian Martial Department caught several members of the Huang Tian Sect in Wanfeng Building, and the Song family's business has been unable to continue, they've closed their doors for reorganization. The government office won't let it go easily if they don't pay a heavy price."

Tian Xiaohu stepped down from the cart, continuing, "Fortunately, we didn't have too many mountain goods, and those that were in season all sold, but because of the Huang Tian Sect incident, the market isn't good, and the mountain goods couldn't fetch a high price."

Shen Qing muttered to himself, wondering why, but it was getting harder and harder to hunt game in the mountains.

He felt that his Hongshan Trading Company might end before it even began.

Turns out he's not cut out for business and should just focus on progressing in martial arts to make his fortune.

"What about the government office?"

"The same as always, they are everywhere trying to capture members of the Huang Tian Sect. It's nearing its end and should be over soon."

"Roar!"

Just then, a beast's roar came from behind the mountain, reverberating throughout the wilderness.
