silently appeared in his own courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After being away from home for so long, he finally returned tonight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing that greeted him was the Dragon Carp leaping out of the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the cold moonlight, the Dragon Carp leaping out of the lake seemed to emit a golden-red glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Splash——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She fell onto the surface of the lake, and the splashing waves instantly shattered the mirror-like surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the ripples spread, countless silver scales shimmered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Linglong, come here!\" Jiang Ning looked at the shattered lake surface and suddenly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice penetrated below the lake surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rainbow streak once again broke the water surface, tracing a perfect parabolic arc in the air, landing in the palm of Jiang Ning’s outstretched left hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Linglong had cultivated over a hundred years of Dao, her size was still only palm-sized, no different from ordinary fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Jiang Ning, Linglong blinked her protruding fish eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she slowly blew a bubble from her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here’s something good for you!\" Jiang Ning smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out his right hand and burst the bubble Linglong had blown from her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crimson blood immediately seeped from his fingertip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Authority of the Divine Descendants underwent transformation, and he happened to use Linglong for an experiment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Linglong began to suck the crimson blood flowing from his fingertip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning withdrew his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Digest it, and tell me tomorrow how it compares to before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he finished speaking, Jiang Ning tossed Linglong back into the pond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plop——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanied by the sound of entering water, Linglong disappeared beneath the rippling lake surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning then returned to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky was just beginning to brighten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning pushed open the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Master!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lv Yi, who was scattering feed in the courtyard, heard the commotion behind her and turned around to see Jiang Ning, her eyes widening instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you looking at me like that?\" Jiang Ning asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t expect the Young Master to return so suddenly!!\" Lv Yi said, joy apparent in her features.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning smiled, \"Has anything happened at home during these days?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\" Lv Yi nodded decisively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then said, \"There are two letters for the Young Master at home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two letters?\" Jiang Ning was slightly surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lv Yi nodded, \"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bring them to me to see!\" Jiang Ning said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright!\" Lv Yi responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then placed the platter holding fish feed on a stone pillar by the lake and quickly left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Lv Yi’s departing figure, a faint smile appeared on Jiang Ning’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning home brought him a sense of comfort and relaxation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze then turned towards the lake surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the fish feed Lv Yi had just scattered, the fish in the lake were fighting for the feed, continuously splashing water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Jiang Ning’s call, a rainbow streak appeared on the lake surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one who arrived was Linglong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is it?\" Jiang Ning asked at the lake’s edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While speaking, he casually grabbed a handful of fish feed and tossed it into the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ornamental fish in the lake needed to be fed regularly; otherwise, the natural food in this man-made lake was not enough to sustain those ornamental fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, my Dao cultivation is now 150 years!\" Linglong’s clear voice rose from the lake surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"150 years?\" A trace of peculiarity flashed in Jiang Ning’s eyes, then he asked, \"How many years did it increase last night?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"About eleven years!\" Linglong replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleven years!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this answer, another trace of peculiarity flashed in Jiang Ning’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last night, based on his perception, he had fed Linglong about 200 milliliters of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two hundred milliliters of blood resulted in an increase of approximately ten years in Linglong’s Dao cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From what he understood, the human body contains about 3,500 to 6,000 milliliters of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a middle value, that’s about 5,000 milliliters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he drained all his blood at once to feed Linglong, it could give her 250 years of Dao cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he drained it four times, without diminishing returns, Linglong could directly possess a millennium of Dao cultivation, becoming a so-called Great Demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this comparison, he was even more acutely aware of the powerful effects of his blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A new idea suddenly arose in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What effect would feeding his flesh have?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as soon as this thought arose, he immediately dismissed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could still accept feeding his blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But feeding his flesh to other creatures, he was not prepared to do so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with blood, he dared not feed too much at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because blood is the essence of the human body, losing too much would deplete one’s foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone feeding completely, that would bring enormous negative impacts, even costing him his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stronger the body, the higher the quality of the blood, with more essence contained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To recover would also be more difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike ordinary people, who might just need a well-effected ginseng, coupled with some rest, to replenish the body’s deficit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To achieve this, given the current strength of his body, the amount of Treasure Medicine required was beyond imagination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was different from ordinary Martial Artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The nourishment from the water source was enough to let him recover from bodily deficits much faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then waved his hand, signaling Linglong could return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lv Yi hurriedly ran over with quick steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Master, here’s your letter!\" Lv Yi held out the letter to Jiang Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking the letter, as soon as he saw the surface of the first one, he knew who it was from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The graceful handwriting could only belong to the Seventeenth Princess of the Great Xia Royal Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Lin Qingyi left, the delivery of letters became the task of a mysterious visitor who never showed their true face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During last month’s letter delivery, he had even personally seen that mysterious person.\u003C\u002Fp>",1024,"2026-05-29T16:07:30.946Z","2026-06-01T04:29:42.045Z",1,"novelbin.me","db53e3274f1cbc6a13a4ab69e6862dd1c6539be17bee3eca6e358ec6e2e573ad","grinding-cultivation-toward-martial-saint-chapter-840","grinding-cultivation-toward-martial-saint-chapter-838",1570,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrinding-cultivation-toward-martial-saint-cover.jpg"]
