n77 Incredible Speed

n“It is a snatching technique. It snatches one’s vital Qi.”

nJiang Ming recalled the records on the animal skin.

nThis was a ruthless and overbearing auxiliary cultivation technique. The user could seize the vital Qi of others. Once a martial artist ran out of vital Qi, they would not be far from death.

nAfter snatching this vital Qi, one could refine it into their own vitality and integrate it into their body. Which would greatly increase one’s cultivation speed.

nIn fact, if they continued to use the Vitality-Snatching Technique to assist their cultivation, they would no longer have any bottlenecks in martial arts and would be able to become a Grandmaster.

nIn addition, the stronger the target of the Vitality-Snatching Technique, the more profound the vital Qi would be seized, and the faster the cultivation speed of the user would be.

nEven people with inferior aptitudes could become martial artists in a short time if they could use this technique.

n“However, although the Vitality-Snatching Technique can increase a martial artist’s cultivation speed, it is too overbearing. Hence, it has a fatal flaw. Every time it is used, it will shave ten days off the user’s lifespan! When cultivating, one must use the corresponding secret medicine to reduce the impact to three days! This is why it’s a forbidden technique.”

nJiang Ming understood. No wonder Shi Jintai looked much older than he was.

nIt was because he used this technique too many times.

nIf he were to perform the Vitality-Snatching Technique once a day, he would lose three days of his life every day. If he practiced it for one year, he would lose three years of his life. Thus, practicing it for ten years led him to reduce his lifespan by forty years!

n“I don’t think anyone can use this thing to train to the Grandmaster level. Even becoming a Dao Master is impossible. However, I can take it!” Jiang Ming smiled. These forbidden techniques were simply tailor-made for him.

n“It’s just that I didn’t find the corresponding prescription for the secret medicine that reduces the technique’s impact.”

nJiang Ming frowned and suddenly thought of the Shi family, “The Shi family rose with the help of the Liang family in the capital. Could it be that the Liang family had given this technique to the Shi family, but the prescription of the secret medicine remained in the hands of the Liang family? Is it a method to control the Shi family?”

nHe nodded to himself. If that were the case, it would make sense. It seemed that the six great families of the capital were indeed something else.

n“I wonder what other good things the six great families have hidden. When I become a Grandmaster, I’ll definitely go and take a look!” Jiang Ming thought to himself.

nIf there was really a secret to immortality in the country of Yan, it was probably in the hands of these aristocratic families.

n“Next, I’ll try this Vitality-Snatching Technique and see if it’s the same as what I’m thinking!”

nAccording to the animal skin, the Vitality-Snatching Technique was only an auxiliary cultivation technique, and it still required the use of martial arts.

nWhat Jiang Ming was practicing now was the Leather Tiger Bone Technique. He also had a first-class technique—the Flowing Cloud Technique, which he had studied for a long time.

nHowever, the main problem now was whether he could use the Vitality-Snatching Technique!

nOf course, it was unrealistic to slaughter other martial artists and seize their vital Qi. Moreover, it was unstable and more likely to cause trouble. What Jiang Ming wanted to find was a way for sustainable development.

nHis eyes flickered as he recalled the Vitality-Snatching Technique several times in his mind. After making sure that there were no mistakes, he took a deep breath and began to activate his blood Qi to operate the Vitality-Snatching Technique.

nTraces of strange red light condensed between Jiang Ming’s fingers and palms. Then, it shook and dissipated.

nJiang Ming was not discouraged and tried again. After all, this was a forbidden technique, and it was impossible to successfully cast it easily.

nThree days later, Jiang Ming’s eyes were calm as he slowly activated his blood Qi. Threads of red light gathered and finally formed a red halo in the palm of his hand. It seemed to be spinning faintly and exuded a strange power.

n“It’s finally done.” Jiang Ming was overjoyed and began to use the Vitality-Snatching Technique without hesitation.

nHe smacked his own chest with a bang!

nAfter studying the Vitality-Snatching Technique a few times, Jiang Ming found a loophole. This technique said that it could be used on others, but it did not say that it could not be used on himself.

n“No one uses it on themselves because no one would dare. It would be suicidal to do so.”

nHowever, these restrictions were not applicable to Jiang Ming! He was immortal!

nHowever, Jiang Ming was also a little nervous about whether this method would work or not. After all, it was only a theory and had not been put into practice yet.

nWith the use of the Vitality-Snatching Technique, Jiang Ming suddenly felt as if something was taken out of his body. His vision turned black, and he fell to the ground.

nHowever, at the same time, he felt a pure and powerful force slowly flowing into his palm. Then, in an instant, it seeped into his limbs and bones, disappearing within.

nImmediately after that, Jiang Ming felt an indestructible force blooming in his mind. The vital Qi that was taken away from him was instantly replenished and restored to its original state.

n“It’s really good!” Jiang Ming’s eyes were filled with excitement.

nHe could not wait and immediately began to practice the internal breathing technique of the Leather Tiger Bone Technique.

nWisps of blood Qi quickly integrated into his veins. At a speed that stunned Jiang Ming, it began to temper the veins.

nIt was incredibly fast!

nJiang Ming focused his mind and took advantage of the vital Qi to refine his meridians.

nAfter practicing for six hours, the feeling of rapid progress slowly disappeared.

nWhat would normally take him half a month to do, he had done in six hours!

nJiang Ming was greatly shocked.

nWithout any hesitation, he gave himself another blow of the Vitality-Snatching Technique!
