***Next day***
"Little Feng, how long do you think it will take us before we can achieve any results from what we have learned from the statues?" Xiaohe walked out of the carriage eating a fruit as she asked.
But she saw only an empty fruit bag on the ground.
"Hard to say! But I have already sensed my blood Qi last night." Situ's voice responded from above the carriage.
Hearing this, Xiaohe was shocked, "What?"
She asked as she turned her head to look top of the carriage.
"What is with your reaction? It's not like I have already attained the first state of body refinement!" He replied casually to her shock.
"Do you really think that it is normal to grasp blood Qi at will? It is normal to accomplish this within a month, not a few hours." When Xiaohe heard Situ's words, she couldn't help but refute then instantly.
But to his response, he just informed her about his experience.
"I think you should also focus on sensing Blood Qi. My biggest issue is going to be gathering enough food to support body refinement."
She listened to what he had to say, and at the same time felt what was being talked about was indeed unique after all the way Situ looked at things was unique.
He didn't mention more than he should, but just focused on the main issues, even mentioning about this issue of energy required when she feels the blood Qi flow in her body.
"We will stay in this place for the next three days. It is enough time to let the horses recover, at this same time, you can use it to try and sense blood Qi." He actually was going to try and see if he could gather enough food and make improvements on his body refinement.
He felt his body was filled with energy, but looking at the remaining fruits, they couldn't allow him to improve much.
"You said the reason you were able to sense blood Qi faster was due to your body bring tired right?" Xiaohe clearly wanted to copy how Situ accomplished his current results.
Situ didn't stop her, as he assumed it was probably close to giving good outcome.
She then casually changed the topic, "Aunt Mu once mentioned that in the word many monsters in existed and some could even be eaten, but they were not something that could be targeted by us."
"Do you think I have an issue with my head to target such creatures? Besides, I doubt they would be in this place or we would have already alerted them." Actually he had a good reason to suspect this.
He didn't bother sigh this issue, and informed her something else, "After three days, we should put a lot of effort into visiting the statues. The more of the preaching we can listen to, the easier the cultivation in body forging will become."
"Do you have any plans?" Xiaohe's question had Situ pause for while.
The two of them had not met anyone else since they started seeking statues. But a long the way, came across signs of other humans having passed by.
The statues had already passed on the important information to them and what was even more impressive was that it couldn't be forgotten. The information from the statues was imprinted in their minds.
Since it was the case for them, perhaps the others would see no reason to leave behind statues after they have gained what they want.
Once the statues were destroyed, it would hinder their goal.
But things would be different if they could become faster and stronger along the journey.
Though he thought about this, he didn't say anything lest he put pressure on Xiaohe and resulted in opposite effect.
Everything else was going to be put aside for the moment. He wanted to spend the next three days on improving himself and he would be happy if he managed to enter the first stage of body refinement during this period.
But all this was dependent on whether he could gather enough resources, in the form of food.
