Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Su Changkong thought to himself.

Sikong Yong, as the Gang Leader of the Giant Whale Gang, had no shortage of cultivation resources. Combined with the Giant Whale Skill, he was able to make a name for himself in Ink Forest Prefecture City at a young age!

“This Giant Whale Skill has tremendous potential and is the Sect’s Top Skill of the Giant Whale Gang… It’s incomparable to any cultivation technique I’ve practiced before. Training in it more will undoubtedly benefit me greatly in the future.”

Su Changkong clenched his fists, feeling the power that brimmed between his palms and fingers.

The Giant Whale Skill was traditionally only cultivated by the direct lineage of the Giant Whale Gang’s Gang Leader. Meng Sang planned the arson of Xuanwu Pavilion and even stole the Giant Whale Divine Intent Picture as part of a scheme to undermine the authority of the Leader Faction and to probe Sikong Yong’s situation, inadvertently giving Su Changkong a windfall!

Of course, Su Changkong kept this windfall to himself and didn’t share the news with anyone.

Every day, Su Changkong studied the Giant Whale Divine Intent Picture and practiced the Giant Whale Skill. This cultivation technique demanded exceptional talent and aptitude, yet Su Changkong faced virtually no obstacles while practicing it, progressing at a miraculous speed.

Giant Whale Skill (1st realm, Beginner’s Path 1%)

In just ten days, Su Changkong broke through to the first realm of the Giant Whale Skill.

Su Changkong was breathing in and out, large amounts of air being sucked into his lungs and then expelled, creating gusts of wind in the room. Deep within his body, there were faint sounds of something shattering, and he felt a numbing sensation.

It was as if his cells were dividing! His physique was undergoing a fundamental transformation!

“Practicing the Giant Whale Skill has greatly changed my physique. Previously, I could only refine one Qi Increasing Pill in the same amount of time, but now I can refine two! It is estimated that my Turtle Breath Technique will take another half a year to break through, but with my current progress, I’m afraid it will only take about two months to reach the next level!”

Su Changkong couldn’t help but marvel at how the Sect’s Top Skill of the Giant Whale Gang was wonderfully profound, far beyond the reach of third-rate techniques.

The only downside was hunger!

“I’m so hungry… practicing this Giant Whale Skill, my appetite has increased dramatically, but I can’t just eat whatever I want,” he lamented.

A martial artist’s appetite exceeds that of an ordinary person, and Su Changkong’s had grown even more since he started practicing the Giant Whale Skill. The food that used to fill him was now far from enough, not even reaching seven-tenths full.

But Su Changkong couldn’t just eat without restraint. If he showed an appetite far beyond that of other martial artists, it could easily draw attention and cause the Giant Whale Gang to suspect he was practicing the Giant Whale Skill, leading to trouble!

Furthermore, as an alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang, Su Changkong couldn’t leave the Gang at will. Every time he went out, martial artists from the Gang would accompany him for protection, so he couldn’t even go out to find his own food.

Every afternoon, Su Changkong would pack some food from the communal kitchen, claiming he needed a night snack to bring back to his room to supplement his meals, but it was still not enough to satisfy his hunger.

With no other choice, and for safety reasons—to prevent others from discovering that the Divine Intent Picture of the Giant Whale had come into his possession—Su Changkong had to endure the hunger.

As autumn gave way to winter, two months flew by in the blink of an eye, heralding another cold winter. At night, snowflakes danced in the sky, heralding a cold and icy night.

Snow piled up on the roofs of the buildings in the Giant Whale Gang, and the flowers, grass, and trees were clothed in white. All of this gave the Giant Whale Gang a very quiet atmosphere today, with only some disciples patrolling in their cotton clothes.

However, for Su Changkong, the night was anything but quiet. Another year had passed, and he was now eighteen. Not only that, but he had also made a breakthrough tonight!

Whooosh!

In his tightly shut room, Su Changkong switched from lying on his back to sitting cross-legged. As he inhaled and exhaled, a solid sea-blue True Qi circulated ceaselessly through his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, and even through the pores of his skin.

The thickness of this True Qi was as if it had condensed into a tangible form.

“Whoosh!”

The sound of crashing waves was deafening, the robust True Qi almost bursting forth from his body, forming a curtain of Qi several inches thick. The power was so astonishing that it could smash walls and rocks, yet Su Changkong forcefully suppressed it back into his body to avoid making too much noise!

To calm the surging and restless True Qi, Su Changkong opened his window and took a deep breath before exhaling sharply!

“Boom!”

An arrow of Qi mixed with True Qi burst forth, causing the falling snow outside the window to be swept away by the wind, some snowflakes being pulverized into fine powder by the force of the Qi arrow that flew two or three yards before dissipating gradually.

Such a powerful burst of True Qi was unimaginable from a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth!

Turtle Breath Technique (8th realm, Transcendental 1%)

“I’ve broken through…”

After releasing some energy, Su Changkong gradually calmed the tumultuous True Qi inside him and sighed in satisfaction. His Turtle Breath Technique had advanced to the 8th realm, on par with the realm of the Five Animal Frolics!

This breakthrough of the Turtle Breath Technique from the 6th to the 7th realm was much faster, mainly because Su Changkong, as an alchemist, had consumed a large amount of precious Qi Increasing Pills.

Moreover, Su Changkong’s advancement into the second realm of the Giant Whale Skill had significantly increased his appetite, speeding up the rate at which he refined Pill Medicine, allowing him such rapid improvement!

“Only a 10-year increase in lifespan?” Su Changkong furrowed his brow, his Turtle Breath Technique had broken through again, and its characteristic effect had increased his lifespan, but the increase was modest, just 10 years, from 130 to 140 years.

His potential value had only increased by 2 points as well, rising from 20 to 22 points!

“My lifespan has almost reached the limit that humans can achieve, so it is very difficult to add even one more year.”
