Chapter 6: Two Strands of True Qi

  Yang Feng was cultivating the Nine Yin Manual's Changing Tendons and Washing Marrow chapter in the mountain valley, not stopping for a single day. At this time, it was already deep autumn, and from the time Yang Feng fell into this mountain valley, three months had passed.

  In these three months, Yang Feng has undergone tremendous changes. His originally weak and frail body is gone, replaced by a robust and muscular physique. Of course, it's not to the extent of those bodybuilders on TV, but Yang Feng's muscle distribution is very even, giving off a strong visual impact! Yang Feng's height has also increased slightly, from 1.75 meters to 1.77 meters, and his ordinary yet refined face now has a few more hints of determination.

  That tree, which had been abused by Yang Feng for a long time, had long since fallen gloriously to the ground because one day it could no longer withstand Yang Feng's abuse and crashed to the ground with a loud noise! After the tree was gone, Yang Feng quickly found a replacement object, that is, the cliff wall in the valley. He found a smoother cliff wall and began to abuse it again, starting from the beginning of the program that abused the tree, and Yang Feng, who had not shed blood for a long time, became bloody-handed again.

  However, Yang Feng is now facing a dilemma, that is, he has nothing to eat! Because it's already late autumn, the fruit trees in the valley can't bear fruit all the time, and there will always be a day when they are picked clean. Although Yang Feng also made preparations in advance, dried and stored some, but still not enough, just as the last leaf fell from the fruit tree in the valley, Yang Feng's food became nothing!

  Because of practicing the Nine Yin Manual's Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic, Yang Feng's appetite increased greatly, and he had to eat a lot every day. In the past, when there were fruits on the trees in the mountain valleys, Yang Feng could still eat those fruits from the trees. However, by late autumn, when all the fruit trees no longer had any fruit, he could only go hungry.

  Although there were many small animals in the valley, such as wild rabbits and mountain chickens, Yang Feng's current physical condition could easily catch those small animals to fill his stomach. However, unfortunately, Yang Feng had no fire, and even if he caught them, it would be useless. He couldn't eat them raw, could he?

  However, Yang Feng didn't have the energy to do anything if he didn't eat. Without energy, he couldn't cultivate, which made Yang Feng very anxious. In the end, when there was really no other way, Yang Feng could no longer care about so much, and ate raw food just to survive, enduring whatever bitterness came with it.

  Yang Feng immediately put his decision into practice, but Yang Feng did not catch the mountain chickens and wild rabbits in the valley, but instead went to catch fish in the pond to eat. Compared to eating those wild rabbits and mountain chickens raw, eating raw fish was more acceptable to Yang Feng.

  In the small pool of water in the valley, there are many fish, which Yang Feng discovered very early on. However, although there are many fish in the pool, there is only one species, and it's a kind that Yang Feng has never seen before. It's similar to carp, but slightly different, and the bodies of those fish are somewhat transparent, almost allowing you to see the bones inside their bodies, making people feel very magical.

  Yang Feng finally caught a fish after much effort, and was almost exhausted. He didn't expect it to be so difficult just to catch a fish, but he had succeeded in the end. Without any tools, he could only use his hands to dissect the fish. At this time, Yang Feng found that this fish really looked like a carp, but except for their bodies being somewhat transparent, these fish also had very small scales, and their bodies were very hard. Yang Feng used a lot of force to tear off a small piece of fish meat.

  At this time, Yang Feng was so hungry that he couldn't care about the fish being stinky or not, and directly put it into his mouth, chewing it up. But what made Yang Feng's eyes widen was that the meat of this fish wasn't stinky at all, and it even had a slightly sweet taste when eaten. This discovery made Yang Feng extremely excited, and with both hands grasping the fish, he didn't even bother to tear it apart, directly using his mouth to take big bites.

  When Yang Feng finished eating the whole fish, he felt his entire body warm and full of energy. He suddenly let out a loud whoop and ran to the cliff edge to attack it again.

  In this way, in the following days, the fish in the small pond became Yang Feng's only food. Every time Yang Feng ate those fish, he felt warm all over his body, full of energy, and every time he ate a fish, he was full and couldn't eat anymore. This state could last for a whole day, giving Yang Feng more time to practice, making his body more solid and perfect in the following days.

  Unbeknownst to him, winter had arrived, and a snowfall turned the small valley into a snowy world. This weather made Yang Feng's situation even more difficult, as he only wore a thin shirt and casual pants on his body. However, during his training, Yang Feng had already taken off these clothes, and every day was almost naked in training. When the weather was hot, it wasn't a problem, but now that the weather was so cold, if this continued, Yang Feng would definitely be frozen stiff.

  Moreover, the arrival of winter has caused all the fish in the pond to hide and hibernate. It is now extremely difficult for Yang Feng to catch a single fish. However, in order to keep warm, Yang Feng must dive into the icy cold water at the bottom of the pond to catch fish, because only by eating those fish from the pond can his body be warmed up a bit.

  To resist the severe cold, Yang Feng trained his body even more desperately, abusing the cliff again and again, punching, kicking, using his body to collide, making every part of his body have the most intimate contact with the cliff. The heat generated by this intense exercise made Yang Feng's body slightly warm.

  However, under such training, Yang Feng's body had many frostbites. His hands, feet, shoulders, back and many other places were cracked open, with blood flowing out constantly as he pounded the cliff wall. Then, when Yang Feng sat down to rest using all his strength, the cracked open areas on his body would freeze up due to the blood. Every time this happened, the piercing pain made Yang Feng's entire body tremble uncontrollably. However, Yang Feng did not give up because of this. The more it happened, the more a fierce flame burned in his heart - anger towards the Yang family. Why was he treated like this just because he was born out of wedlock? Why was his father so ruthless as to want him dead? Was the position of the head of the household really that important?!

  Yang Feng's heart was filled with indignant rage, and every time he felt this way, he would become even more frenzied in his abuse of the cliff face, venting all his anger on it. The originally somewhat smooth cliff face had long since become pockmarked under Yang Feng's fiery wrath, its entire surface almost caving inward by a full inch in thickness. At the very bottom of the cliff, a thick layer of stone dust had already accumulated!

  The most difficult winter quietly left under Yang Feng's anger, the small valley regained a bit of green after a spring rain, and began to have vitality. At this time, Yang Feng finally successfully cultivated the Nine Yin True Classic's Easy Tendon and Bone Tempering Chapter!

  After another three months of winter training, Yang Feng's body became even more perfect. His height had reached nearly 1.8 meters, and although the muscles on his body were not very prominent, every muscle was perfectly proportioned under the guidance of the Easy Tendon and Bone Strengthening chapter. The long-term exercise had turned Yang Feng's skin into a healthy bronze color.

  That ordinary face had a few more points of determination, his eyes were brighter and deeper, and his eyes were filled with joy, yes, it was joy, because after cultivating the Easy Tendon and Bone Refining Chapter, Yang Feng could cultivate the Nine Yin True Classics and the Nine Yang Divine Skills, so that Yang Feng could get great power, more than half a year of hard work finally got a return, how could he not be happy?

  Yang Feng calmed down the excitement in his heart, then dived to the bottom of the pond and caught a fish. After eating a delicious meal, he lay down to rest. This was the first time he had rested since he started practicing, not because Yang Feng was lazy, but because practicing both the Nine Yin Scripture and the Nine Yang Divine Skill had time constraints. The best times were when the sun was about to set in the evening and the yang energy was almost exhausted, while the yin energy was newly born, as well as when the sun had just risen in the morning and the yin energy was almost exhausted, while the yang energy was newly born. Therefore, Yang Feng's rest now was to wait for the arrival of the evening.

  Finally, at dusk, Yang Feng sat in a small valley, feeling the sun outside slowly setting, at this moment Yang Feng's heart was very tense and excited. As he felt the sun set, Yang Feng first recited the Nine Yin True Classic's mantra in his mind, after reciting it once, he began to silently recite the Nine Yang Divine Skill's mantra, repeating it over and over again, trying to experience the sensation of true energy forming.

  However, what made Yang Feng somewhat disappointed was that after reciting the mantra many times, he still didn't feel that so-called qi sensation. Nevertheless, Yang Feng didn't give up and continued to recite it in his heart over and over again. If this time wasn't successful, there's always tomorrow morning's attempt, and if tomorrow morning isn't successful, there's always the future. Yang Feng believed he would eventually experience that qi sensation.

  Yang Feng silently recited the Nine Yin Scripture and the Nine Yang Divine Skill in his heart, without a moment's pause. Gradually, he felt as if he had entered a very ethereal and mysterious state. At this time, he sensed a golden light appearing on top of his head, while a thread of cold air appeared under his buttocks. These two things entered his body at the same time and then entered his dantian, where they settled in and began to circulate through his meridians along two different routes!

  Yang Feng shed tears again, because he knew he had succeeded. He felt the aura of true energy and the two strands of true energy in his body were circulating according to the cultivation routes of the Nine Yin Scripture and the Nine Yang Divine Skill. He had succeeded! The Nine Yin Scripture and the Nine Yang Divine Skill could indeed be cultivated simultaneously!

  Yang Feng opened his eyes and saw a ray of morning sunlight shooting down from the top of the small valley, this newborn sunshine was foretelling Yang Feng's rebirth. Yang Feng raised his fist and shouted silently towards that sunbeam, a strong man took his first step in life in this unknown little valley!
