Chapter 198: Practicing the Chaotic Void Step

After returning to Cheng Mansion, while Cheng Feng felt that good people are rewarded, he began his journey of cultivation.

Cheng Feng essentially gave up on the Ghost Doctor Book; without anyone to guide him, he could not even recognize all the medicinal herbs, and rote memorization showed nothing on his Panmian, so he decisively let it slide.

This time, he chose the Chaotic Void Step as his training goal. The Chaotic Void Step is a unique light-body close-combat technique characterized by the ability to move freely within extremely small spaces, possessing powerful explosive force and rapid short-distance sprinting capabilities.

Training the Chaotic Void Step is not easy; first, it requires a complex and ever-changing environment and terrain.

Following the instructions in the Secret Manual, Cheng Feng prepared equipment such as straight wooden poles, rolling hammers, swinging hammers, and plum blossom stakes. Just for these items, Cheng Feng spent thirty-eight taels of silver; how could an ordinary family easily afford this?

Fortunately, Cheng Feng is not who he used to be, so spending this small amount of money was fine.

At first, Cheng Feng chose to practice with the straight wooden poles alone. He stepped onto the elevated poles cautiously, struggling to maintain his balance, every step like walking on thin ice. The women were watching from the side, too; he didn't want to be a laughingstock to his own women.

This was indeed different from the hand techniques he had practiced before. Cheng Feng was unsteady during his first practice, but after becoming familiar with it, he quickly mastered the technique of walking on the straight poles, repeating the practice constantly to improve his proficiency.

That afternoon, Cheng Feng added the rolling hammers to his training. The rolling of the hammers increased the difficulty significantly; he had to respond flexibly, skillfully dodging or jumping to avoid the attacks of the rolling hammers. This process was full of danger; a moment of carelessness could lead to being struck by a rolling hammer.

At any rate, he was already a Martial Artist in the Bone Refining Realm, so this did not stump him, and he got the hang of it very quickly.

Cheng Feng also mastered the rhythm of the rolling hammers quite easily and could move freely amidst them. Subsequently, he introduced obstacles like swinging hammers and plum blossom stakes, training with them in pairs. This made the cultivation much more difficult, requiring higher skill and reaction ability.

Multitasking, even Cheng Feng had to remain vigilant at all times, making judgments and taking action rapidly.

On the fifth day, Cheng Feng combined all the obstacles for training. This was the most challenging stage because he needed to face the intersection of various complex situations.

Through constant attempts and improvements, Cheng Feng gradually mastered the essence of the Chaotic Void Step, and his body also received great exercise.

And on the Panmian, the words "Chaotic Void Step: (Entry 1/200)" appeared as he had hoped.

Seeing the master spend money to buy equipment and stop training after a few days, the women laughed, saying the master lacked patience, but no one knew that that very night, after Cheng Feng rewarded the women with a night of shared intimacy, he directly added all 15 Fortune Points he had obtained to the Chaotic Void Step.

Looking at the Fortune Points on his Panmian that were growing several times faster than before, and looking at his newly replaced super-large bed, as well as the women lying on the bed, sprawled out and exhausted from the conquest, amidst their jade arms and fair bodies, Cheng Feng felt satisfied.

"This is what living is! Relaxed, comfortable, and wonderful."

After stepping into the Bone Refining Realm, Cheng Feng's prowess in conquest was incomparable to before.

They say lust is a steel saber that scrapes the bones; Cheng Feng did not believe it and wanted to challenge his own bones.

And the facts proved that before Cheng Feng had even used his strength, the women had already collapsed; Cheng Feng felt that if he could persist for another ten days or so, the Chaotic Void Step would definitely reach Proficient.

He had many thoughts after the battle with Peng Yuyan; if he hadn't relied on his higher realm to remain undefeated, he might have really been done for.

Therefore, he had to trouble his women to help him with his cultivation during this time.

And the women were also willing; at first, Meiniang and Cai'er were a bit unable to let go of their pride, but one, then both, found it hard to resist. At this point, the number of people no longer mattered; what mattered was satisfying their man.

Seeing Cheng Feng battle the group without falling behind also made Cai'er and Meiniang, the two Equal Wives, take seriously what Cheng Feng had said: "Inside the gates, you are all equal; once you go outside, it won't be too late to discuss who is the sister."

They were all Cheng Feng's women, so what else was there to struggle with?

Relying on his powerful strength, Cheng Feng completely achieved the feat of sleeping together in one big bed.

At the same time, the Lin Family brought twenty stalks each of Sky Eye Sparrow and True Orchid Flower to Cheng Feng, having the servants report the news to him.

The medicinal formula passed down by the predecessors of the Tieshan Martial Arts Hall was indeed extraordinary; at five taels of silver per stalk, forty stalks cost two hundred taels.

Cheng Feng took three hundred taels in silver notes directly to the Lin Mansion; ever since he had money, Cheng Feng also began to pay attention to his interpersonal connections.

The medicinal properties of Sky Eye Sparrow and True Orchid Flower are cold and yin; they grow mostly in dark and damp valleys, and the required environment is extremely harsh, which is necessary to fuse with the yang-hard and fierce blood of tiger bone.

Qingxi County is backed by mountains, but there are not many damp valleys, so it is no wonder these two main medicinal ingredients were missing. If this decoction works well, Cheng Feng hopes to continue cooperating in the future!

The next morning, sunlight filtered through the thin mist, spilling onto the bluestone road of Qingxi County, forming soft rays of light. Cheng Feng, dressed in clean and neat clothes, walked toward the Lin Mansion with a light step.

His heart was full of anticipation, not only because of the main medicinal ingredients about to be delivered but also because of the hope that might come behind those ingredients.

Arriving in front of the Lin Mansion, the gatekeeper saw Cheng Feng and a fawning smile immediately appeared on his face. He stepped forward quickly to welcome him and said respectfully, "Young Master Cheng, you have come. Please, come in. The master has been waiting for you for a long time."

Passing through the corridors with carved beams and painted rafters, full of antique charm, Cheng Feng was led into an elegantly decorated reception hall. The hall was furnished with exquisite furniture and antiques, with calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, and the whole space was filled with a tranquil and elegant atmosphere.

Lin Xiong had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing Cheng Feng walk in, Lin Xiong stood up with a smile and cupped his hands in greeting: "Young Master Cheng, we meet again."

Cheng Feng smiled slightly, returned the salute to Lin Xiong, and walked to the table to sit down. He said in a sincere tone: "Head of the Family Lin, I wonder if the main medicinal ingredients can be brought out for me to see?"

Master Lin nodded slightly to show his understanding, then looked at the maid beside him.

The maid responded softly and turned to leave the room. After a while, she returned to the reception hall carrying an exquisite wooden box and placed it carefully on the table.

Cheng Feng's gaze fell on the wooden box, his eyes flashing with excitement. He reached out and slowly opened the wooden box; the box was divided into upper and lower layers, each layer lined with silk, with wooden partitions placed inside, and each partitioned space contained a medicinal herb.

Sky Eye Sparrow is a white herb in its entirety, cold in nature and sweet in taste; the petals of the True Orchid Flower are light blue, like a thin veil, and smell slightly sweet.

The stems are thick and lustrous, and the roots are dense and sturdy. Overall, the herbs look extremely robust, full of vitality and vigor. Clearly, these are precious medicinal herbs of superior quality and significant efficacy.

From this, it can be seen that the Lin Mansion truly put in a lot of effort when buying the herbs.

Cheng Feng carefully placed the herbs into the box, then cupped his hands to Lin Xiong to thank him: "Many thanks, Head of the Family Lin! Going to such trouble and effort, I am truly deeply grateful."

He gently placed the silver notes in his hand on the table. Seeing this, Lin Xiong waved his hand to indicate there was no need for courtesy and expressed his willingness to give the herbs to Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng firmly refused this kindness, stating that he could not take them for nothing.

Cheng Feng said earnestly: "Head of the Family Lin, I appreciate your kindness, but you must accept these silver notes. If it weren't for the full support of the Lin Mansion this time, I fear I would have been unable to find these herbs. Therefore, please be sure to accept this money. If there are other needs in the future, I will definitely visit again. If you do not accept my payment today, how could I have the nerve to ask for your help next time?"

Lin Xiong had originally intended to be on good terms with Cheng Feng, and after hearing these words, he no longer insisted.

The two chatted for a while, and then Cheng Feng rose to take his leave.

Watching the extra one hundred taels of silver notes in his hand, Lin Xiong sighed to himself that Cheng Feng was generous and knew how to conduct himself, and he couldn't help but admire his daughter's judgment even more.
