Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 224 Four Symbols Spiritual Blood

Great Liang Mountain.

This place was located a thousand and three hundred miles from the imperial capital; even with Xiao Yi's speed, it took a full three hours.

Within the vast mountains.

Xiao Yi looked at Ye Heng in front of him and said, "For the next seven days, we will be spending our time here."

"Principal, what should I do?" Ye Heng asked with burning eyes.

Just a moment ago, Xiao Yi had taken him to soar through the sky, and that feeling of looking down upon the world had left him utterly captivated.

Xiao Yi said, "You just need to do as I tell you, without needing to know too much!"

"Yes!"

Ye Heng nodded heavily.

For fifteen years.

Apart from his mother, Xiao Yi was the first person, and the only one, who truly cared for him.

In Ye Heng's heart, he had long accepted Xiao Yi.

Even if Xiao Yi now told him that he needed to exhaust all his potential and fight Ye Tian in seven days, he would agree without any hesitation.

Xiao Yi spoke in a serious tone, "You should be aware of the gap between yourself and Ye Tian, which is why I have tailored a cultivation plan just for you in the next seven days. This cultivation plan will be extremely brutal for you. I'll ask you one more time, are you really willing to try it?"

"I am!"

Ye Heng said solemnly.

His clear eyes were filled with an unwavering will to fight.

Xiao Yi nodded, took out a set of specially made clothes and shoes from the storage ring; these were treasures obtained from the treasury of the Great Jin Kingdom.

The entire set was made from silkworm threads infused with Xuan Heavy Stone.

It seemed light and thin but was actually quite hefty.

This set of clothes and shoes together weighed a full thousand pounds.

Xiao Yi threw this set of Xuan Heavy clothing to Ye Heng. Caught off guard, Ye Heng almost knelt to the ground under the weight of the clothes, his face filled with astonishment and shock: "Prin... Principal, what material is this clothing made of? Why is it so heavy?"

"This is Xuan Heavy clothing. Starting now, unless I tell you to take it off, you cannot remove it—whether you're eating, sleeping, or training!" Xiao Yi said gravely.

This set of Xuan Heavy clothing was worth a fortune.

Don't be fooled by its weight of over a thousand pounds; it was soft and comfortable due to the weaving of silkworm thread, warm in winter and cool in summer.

Ye Heng quickly changed into the Xuan Heavy clothing.

This Xuan Heavy clothing was extremely heavy; even with Ye Heng's Seventh Layer of Qi Gathering Realm cultivation, he felt as if he was filled with lead when wearing this set of clothes. Even the most routine movements became incredibly difficult. Ye Heng, with a face as if on the verge of tears, said, "Principal, this Xuan Heavy clothing is truly too heavy."

"You'll gradually get used to it!"

Xiao Yi looked up at the depths of Great Liang Mountain deep; Little Lin followed his arm down to the ground, "Little Lin, from now on, you supervise Ye Heng and make sure he completes all the training tasks I have given him!"

"Don't worry, Big Boss, I'll keep a close eye on him!" Little Lin's tail lifted, pointed at Ye Heng, and then at its own eyes.

Xiao Yi was very assured with Little Lin watching over this place.

Xiao Yi then left quickly and headed toward the depths of Great Liang Mountain.

Little Lin perched on Ye Heng's shoulder, sticking out its tongue and said, "Kid, from now on, you're in Little Master's hands; we'll start with the first training item, run around this valley for me! Listen up, if you're too slow, watch out for a whipping from me!"

Smack smack!

Little Lin suddenly flicked its tail, sending out two bursts of air that chiseled two dozens-of-meters-long cracks into the rock face.

Hiss!

Ye Heng was so scared that his scalp tingled and he hurriedly broke into a run.

Only...

He was now wearing the Xuan Heavy clothing, equivalent to carrying a thousand pounds of weight. For Ye Heng, who was only at the Seventh Layer of the Qi Gathering Realm, the burden was still enormous. His pace was uneven and slow, but luckily, Ye Heng's will was extremely tenacious. Having been despised and bullied since childhood, he valued every opportunity to grow stronger greatly.

He didn't need Little Lin's urging; he would give it his all regardless.

The valley was more than a thousand meters in circumference.

Ye Heng ran laps around the valley.

One lap.

Two laps.

Three laps...

By the end, even Ye Heng himself didn't know exactly how many laps he had run; his face had turned pale, stars danced before his eyes, and his will nearly collapsed, holding on through sheer determination. With each lift of his legs, pain tore through him as if ripping his heart and lungs out, large beads of sweat rolled down, having already soaked his clothes through and through.

Panting! Panting! Panting!

The only sounds left in Ye Heng's ears were his heartbeat and heavy breathing.

Little Lin perched on a rock nearby, nodding slightly, "No wonder the boss values him so highly. Just by this will alone, it's destined that this kid's future achievements are boundless!"

If martial artists are likened to an army,

cultivation is the soldier, but will is the commander.

Though the number of soldiers can decide the outcome of many battles, as long as the commander is strong enough, there's still a chance to stage a comeback from the weaker side against the strong.

Whoosh!

Xiao Yi's figure returned to the valley, with a corpse of an armored boar on his shoulder. He glanced at Ye Heng who was still persistently running, one step shallow, one step deep, "How long have you been running?"

"Since you left, he hasn't stopped; by now, it's already over one hundred and sixty laps!" Little Lin cocked its head, thinking and speaking.

One lap is over one thousand meters, meaning that Ye Heng had continued to run for over a hundred thousand meters, even with over a thousand catties weighing in his belly.

Even though his speed was not fast, the fact that he had held on until now was already very impressive!

Xiao Yi tossed the beast to Little Lin, "You roast it; I'm going to apply medicine to the kid first!"

This extreme training was highly effective but the training content and intensity were still secondary; the biggest reason Xiao Yi had confidence that Ye Heng would defeat Ye Tian within seven days was due to Ye Heng's special physique and a way in Xiao Yi's inheritance from the Wind Thunder Venerable to stimulate Ye Heng's potential.

"Ye Heng, you can stop now!" Xiao Yi said.

"..."

As if he heard nothing, Ye Heng continued to run forward.

Xiao Yi was stunned, then realized that Ye Heng's eyes had already lost focus, relying entirely on will to keep going; he couldn't help but admire, "Good lad, just as said in the Wind Thunder Venerable's medical canon, those with this kind of physique have unexpectedly strong wills. Kid, stop for me!"

With a wave of his hand through the air, Xiao Yi stopped Ye Heng and tossed him into the lake on one side of the valley.

Hissss!

The cold lake water stimulated him, gradually bringing back Ye Heng's consciousness, but he was exhausted to the point of being unable to move his arms. The profound heavy clothing made him especially heavy, and his body involuntarily sank towards the bottom of the lake.

Luckily, Xiao Yi promptly reached out and pulled him up, looking at the weakened Ye Heng, Xiao Yi took out four jars.

They contained the blood of beasts previously hunted deep within Great Liang Mountain: Green-eyed White-foreheaded Tiger, Purple Crowned Golden Python, Camel Mountain Tortoise, and Red-bellied Brocade Chicken. These four beasts were descendants of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Turtle, the Four Symbols Divine Beasts, each carrying a trace of Divine Blood.

Mixing the blood of these four beasts together, it was known as Four Symbols Spiritual Blood. Although it was not as potent as the fabled Divine Blood of the Four Symbols Divine Beasts, it was still ample for Ye Heng, who was only at the Seventh Layer of Qi Gathering Realm.

Of course.

Apart from the Four Symbols Spiritual Blood, Xiao Yi had added a multitude of medicinal herbs for healing and recovery into the mixture.

Only through this could he stimulate the awakening of Ye Heng's physique while negating the fatigue from a day of strenuous cultivation.

"Master... Master..."

Ye Heng opened his mouth, squeezing out a forced smile.

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "It's going to hurt a bit; bear with it."

"Mm!"

Ye Heng weakly nodded his head.

Xiao Yi applied the Four Symbols Spiritual Blood mixed with the medicinal herbs onto his body.

At first, the reaction was mild, eliciting only a slight feeling of heat.

But before long...

As the Four Symbols Spiritual Blood began to take effect, Ye Heng's eyes suddenly widened, his hands and feet desperately pushed back, veins pulsating wildly, eyes bloodshot, and he opened his mouth wide but was utterly unable to make a sound.

Little Lin gasped, "Boss, isn't this too painful?"

Xiao Yi took a deep breath, "This is just the beginning. Whether he can withstand it or not is up to him now..."
