Rain taking a breath, read the rest of the book he was so invested in the book that he did not even notice the sect master leaving the room.
In the next two pages, Ji Xuan writes of how he when waking up found himself in his room. He learned, that his fight with the ice cobra was noticed by some immortal cultivators who were hunting the ice cobra.
His fight with the Ice cobra helps them catch up with the ice cobra and kill it. They notice him unconscious and are bitten by the ice cobra as he indirectly stops the ice cobra which helps them. They brought him back to the settlement.
And the next he writes his despair and hesitation.
He did not want to return home. He was an ambitious man by age 35 he reached the 7th rank grandmaster and according to his practice speed before age 50 he would reach the 10th rank Grandmaster and by age 60, he would reach the peak Grandmaster realm. And he will have half of his lifespan to figure out the next realm of Grandmaster.
But the poison of the ice cobra derailed all his plans and suddenly one day he was again thinking about why he went further inside the mountain range and why his luck was so bad. That he faces a peak 1st rank Ice Cobra. Suddenly he remembers when he was losing consciousness his true energy slows down the poison spreading to his entire body.
Rain reads as Ji Xuan shares his findings with the doctor the next day. The doctor asks him about his practice method. Ji Xuan without giving the practice he created, it is not a complete practice as it can be practiced to only 7th Rank Grandmaster.
The main component of the practice is why he was able to practice so fast because when creating the practice he added an element of a forbidden technique, the 'Blood Burning' technique.
Using the blood-burning technique your strength doubles and the price is it burns the vitality of the body for the double strength. And if you do not stop the technique after you start then you may end up as dead as after burning the vital energy of the whole body.
Why Ji Xuan added the blood-burning technique to his practice method because when he first entered the Crystal Steel mountain range where only a prototype of the practice method was created.
He killed a Snow Bear with great difficulty and started eating it. While he was eating, He spotted another Snow Bear running angrily toward him. He knows he cannot escape the Snow bear so he uses a burning technique and kills the new snow bear.
But later he found the burning technique did not burn his vitality to double his strength but burn the meat of a snow bear in his stomach.
He fought before using the blood-burning technique with food in his stomach and the difference is that they were ordinary food and blood-burning cannot extract effective energy.
Still, the snow beat is a 1st rank monster and difficult to absorb by his body and the blood-burning technique speeds up the absorption of the snow bear meat.
He started researching blood blood-burning techniques and found them compatible with his burning artistic conception so he added the technique to his practice method. And found he absorbed monster meat at thrice the speed and converted them into true energy.
The doctor seeing the exercise told him he could burn the poison inside his body with the practice method but his artistic conception of burning should reach the fifth realm.
The answer dissapoint Ji Xuan as to reach that realm of burning artistic conception he has to leave here and go to a place with burning rules such as volcanos.
And now it is impossible for him, suppressing the poison has weakened 70% of his fighting power. Then the doctor told Ji Xuan of another method Divine Runes.
From that day Ji Xuan start drawing divine runes. When he started his success of basic rune rate was 1/20.
In the next 10 years, he only drew a divine rune and his artistic conception of burning reached the 5th and the last realm.
Then he burns the poison using his true energy. When the poison was burned it released energy.
His body was severely damaged by the poison the energy helped recover his body and in the next year his strength rapidly increased also reached the 10th rank of grandmaster. 10 years of fighting the poison also strengthens his body.
In the next seven years, he did not stop practicing divine runes and with his increased strength, he went to colder places that had life-threatening situations for him before, and now the places only slightly dangerous for him.
When he was 72 he reached the peak of grandmaster without any way to increase his strength. He returns to his home.
There he starts writing this book, enjoys his life, and communicates with other peak Grandmasters to forge a path after the Grandmaster realm.
As he was doing this he did not stop drawing runes and a month after he turned 83 years old.
After drawing a rune with a burning rule and starting to comprehend the display rule then he felt his mind suddenly go blank and his artistic conception tree with the fruit without his consent formed in the blank space of his mind and he watched the fruit fall from the tree and he was kicked out of the blank space of his mind.
And coming to reality without using his soul power, the picture of his entire room came into his mind, the insects, the dust hidden in nooks and crannies that were out of his vision.
The more marvelous feeling he could feel was the spiritual energy all around him in the air and he controlled it with difficulty he tried to control the spiritual energy combined with his body but he was unsuccessful.
Then he tried to refine his body with spiritual energy and was somehow successful. First try only refine only one cell in his hand.
He shared the finding with other Grandmasters but they did not experience this. They are unable to give effective advice.
And in his lifetime he made friends with many immortal cultivators and one of them has a master of the Earth pillar realm.
He went to visit him and told his situation. The friend introduces him to his master, who concludes his situation that if he can transform 10% of his cell his body will transform into a basic fire spirit body. And he can change his path from warrior to immortal.
Hearing his situation he was allowed to join his friend sect and with the help of the sect he transformed 10% of his cell before he turned 100 he reached the white base realm increasing his life span to 400 years.
Rain when he turned the next page found he had finished reading the book. And turmoil in his mind he closes the book and looks up finding no one in the room. Then he hears a sound coming from the kitchen.
Rain called, "Great elder."
A great elder comes to the doorway finding Rain finishing the book," Wait I am preparing lunch."
Rain hearing lunch found the time is 2.17 pm. " then I will leave tomorrow to read the practice book." He already got the gist of how to create a practice method but this practice method will speed up the process.
The great elder then comes out of the kitchen holding two plates," Why are you leaving, I also cook for you?"
Rain quickly removes the book from the table putting on the chair beside him and sees the food that the great elder put in front of him. Rain sees what is the dish made of as he has not seen this dish.
Great elder, "Eat it, this local dish made from Gold long fin fish found in the river surrounding the city."
Rain nodding starts eating and after 10 minutes they eat in silence, Rain wants to talk but seeing the Great Elder in full concentration eating his food he remains silent.
After finishing the lunch and putting the dishes away, Great Elder," You have completely read the book."
Rain understood what the great elder was talking about so he said," Senior Ji Xuan's story is inspirational but after him is there any successful case similar to him."
Great elders thinking for a moment answer," No, But you have the highest chance to acquire a spiritual body and change your path to an immortal way."
Rain nods, " I know, I will also reach a level similar to senior Ji Xuan's understanding of rules but I want to create a path for all warriors after me."
The great elder feels Rain's ambition and he is happy Rain is thinking for all warriors of the world but," this will be a difficult task because you have to create a realm of Warrior path till you can become like one of the stars in the sky."
Rain nodding," Yes, Immortal Path is a paved path to the stars in the sky but my talent in warrior path may not correspond to immortal path. And if I cannot create and strike in a realm then I will convert to an immortal path."
The great elder found nothing to say, so he smiled, "Good. You can start reading the book and create or practice one of the practices from there. So you can quickly reach the peak of grandmaster and create the next realm."
Rain hearing this nods and picks up a book from the chair he put them before, opening the book, the first page reads Black Wind Technique.
And starts reading after he finishes he found for the flesh realm practice you have to go to a place named black wind valley region, where the wind can shred the flesh from a body.
Using the black wind strengthens the muscles and skin on the body after finishing you can move without problem in the outer region.
For the bone realm is there no foreign environment or item required, but a boxing technique. The boxing technique is created by understanding the rhyme and vibration of the black wind. And there the book finished.
Rain raises his head from the book to the Great Elder," There is no last two realms in the book."
Great elder smiles," Rain, not every Grandmaster reaches the peak of the Grandmaster realm before they die. I stop at the peak of the bone refining realm."
Rain nods in understanding and picks up the next book.
