Baby with Daoist Monarch System-Chapter 609 - 244: Marvelous Uses of Innate Qi
Xu Binghu looked on with some envy at his son and asked helplessly, "Can we learn it?"
As a father, Xu Binghu did not want his son to leave him too far behind.
Moreover, such a Perception Skill was also a Divine Skill for a Hunter like him.
Xu Ran directly handed the beast hide to Xu Binghu, "Everyone can try it!!"
Without any hesitation, he handed the beast hide to everyone.
Of course, Xu Ran was confident that they wouldn’t be able to learn it.
It must be known that he could perceive the Smell Wind Skill from it mainly because he had been receiving the cleansing of Innate Qi since birth.
An important prerequisite for the Smell Wind Skill was that every cell of the body needed to be under one’s control, and the cells needed to withstand the endless information brought by the wind.
Although Xu Ran seemed relaxed when receiving the information from the wind, in reality, each place the wind grazed contained endless information.
If Xu Ran weren’t of the Innate Divine Body, with limbs, torso, and brain incredibly tough, and his brow having opened a channel, he might have already become an idiot.
So, apart from Xu Ran, basically, no one else could perceive the existence of the Smell Wind Skill.
Xu Binghu received the beast hide and spread it out before him. A pristine white Flood Dragon appeared on the hide, emitting a faint white light.
Xu Binghu held his breath and focused all his attention.
The next moment, a pair of white eyes appeared before him; Xu Binghu stared into them.
"Ah!!"
Suddenly, Xu Binghu’s eyes felt a burning sensation, as if they were going blind.
But quickly, a warm current from his Dantian appeared at his eyes, instantly dispelling that searing heat.
After a while, he opened his eyes.
Upon opening them, he saw several people gathered around him, and sound gradually returned to his ears.
"Husband, what’s wrong with you?"
"Binghu, are you alright?"
...
Hearing the voices around him turn from blurry to clear, Xu Binghu shook his head and rubbed his ears.
"I’m fine now."
The crowd, hearing Xu Binghu’s response, finally relaxed.
"Binghu, what just happened?" Elder Qi asked, "You looked as though you were going blind."
Xu Binghu recalled the eyes of the Flood Dragon that appeared before him and shuddered.
"In the moment I looked at the beast hide, I saw the eyes of a Flood Dragon. Then, my eyes felt a burning sensation. If it weren’t for Xiao Ran, I might have really gone blind."
Xu Binghu felt as though he had narrowly escaped disaster.
To have retained his sight was undoubtedly due to the Innate Qi given to him by Xu Rande.
It saved him when he was on the brink of blindness.
And Xu Ran knew that the Innate Qi within his father would save him, which is why he dared hand over the beast hide.
Elder Qi and Aunt Mei both shuddered at the thought.
If they had received the complete beast hide and accidentally glanced at it, what would the outcome have been?
Even the powerful Xu Binghu nearly went blind; for the two of them, wouldn’t it mean instant obliteration?
But fortunately, what they received was only a half.
"Dad, while the warm current is still present, it’s time for the third Body Refining," Xu Ran suggested.
Upon hearing this, Xu Binghu’s body tensed, his face regained confidence, "Alright!", and he handed the beast hide back to Xu Ran.
He had long been eager for the third Body Refining; he was just delayed by too many previous matters.
The others were also full of anticipation. During his second Body Refining, Xu Binghu’s strength had reached a thousand pounds, so what level would his strength rise to with the third?
Moreover, the beast blood Xu Binghu used was all Demon Blood, and even if for the first time he had used a single drop of Tiger Demon Heart Blood with a slight flaw, it was still Demon Blood.
Not to mention that the second time, it was all Beast Blood.
The third Body Refining was different from the first two; instead of just using a drop of Demon Blood, all Heart Demon Blood had to be used to fully unleash the body’s potential.
Under Xu Binghu’s instruction, everyone brought out a large pot placed aside in the courtyard, while he himself cut open the belly of the fish demon from the small white bird’s beak, extracting the Heart Demon Blood, and bringing out all the previously collected Heart Demon Blood.
Everything was ready except for waiting for the water to boil.
The moon’s reflection cast upon the pot, along with the rising hot steam, gave it an extraordinary aura.
Soon, the water boiled.
Xu Binghu poured all the Heart Demon Blood into the pot.
In the process, the power of various Demon Beasts contained within the Demon Blood lingered in the Xu Family courtyard, one phantasm after another, like ghosts, hovered above, baring their teeth as if wanting to devour Xu Binghu whole.
Except for Xu Ran, Lian Ji, and Xiao Bai, the others had never witnessed such a scene. Usually, they couldn’t even see one Demon Beast, and now, they were seeing dozens. Even though they were just the remnants of their souls, the oppressive force they emitted was more than those who had undergone at most one Body Refining could bear.
Several people’s bodies trembled, cold sweat covered their foreheads, and under the immense pressure, their legs began to buckle, as if about to kneel before the dead spirits.
Seeing this, Xu Ran stepped forward, emitting a gentle aura that enveloped Elder Qi, Master Yang, Cui Hua, and Aunt Mei.
Instantly, the oppressive feeling on the four is disappeared, making them feel exceptionally relieved.
Looking at Xu Ran standing before them, even Elder Qi respectfully thanked him, "Thank you!!!"
Xu Ran did not speak, merely observing his father quietly.
While Lian Ji, under the protection of Xiao Bai, remained completely unscathed.
Seeing no mishaps on their end, Xu Binghu focused all his attention on Body Refining.
He looked at the boiling pot of water before him, took a deep breath, and poured all the Heart Demon Blood into it.
Instantly, "Gulp Gulp-----"
Countless bubbling sounds erupted from the pot; those "Gulp Gulp-----" sounds seemed like the anguished roars of each Demon Beast right before death, their unwillingness and humiliation showcased within them.
Xu Binghu was already accustomed to such scenes.
"Splash----"
He jumped in directly.
Instantly, the water filled with Heart Beast Blood began to swirl towards Xu Binghu, and the water in the pot gradually shifted from red to black.
At the center of the vortex, Xu Binghu closed his eyes, cold sweat pouring from his forehead. If not for his formidable willpower, he might have been dragged into the whirlpool’s depths long ago.
Simultaneously, all his pores opened, each one ingesting the black water into his body like a starving spirit.
Every drop of the once-red water, now black, merged into Xu Binghu’s body, causing it to inflate from all the ingested water, as if he were a balloon.
Lian Ji’s heart clenched, and she anxiously looked at Xu Ran, asking, "Xiao Ran, what’s happening, is something wrong?"
It wasn’t just Lian Ji who was anxious; the other four were equally troubled. The person had turned into a big balloon, and the expansion continued. Surely, he wouldn’t burst, right?
If he did burst, wouldn’t that be catastrophic?
"Mom, don’t worry." Xu Ran said calmly, "It’s fine, this is a normal reaction."
"Every Heart Beast contains the unwillingness and resentment of the Demon Beast before death; using it to temper the body is a necessary ordeal."
"Now that Dad’s body is swelling, it indicates that all the intent held within the Demon Blood has entered his body."
"As long as Dad’s will is strong enough to subdue and absorb all the vengeful souls, he will pass the third Body Refining."
After listening, Lian Ji relaxed a bit, though she still retained some tension.
What Xu Ran said seemed exceptionally easy, but others knew that this pertained to him. For anyone else, it might not be the same.
But what they didn’t know was that Xu Binghu possessed Innate Qi within him, with countless uses that the vengeful souls of these few dozen dead Demon Beasts couldn’t counteract.
