Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 529: Chapter 233: The Army Sets Out, Yang Lu Changes, Mid-stage Cold Resistance

”This is too difficult. No choice, I have to think of another way. I’ve heard that his strength is very strong, similar to the leader. Such people surely have strong determination.”

”There’s no way now. We’ve changed more than a dozen people in the past two days. Do you think... he might like men?”

”Stop talking nonsense. His strength is strong, be careful he hears you!”

........

On the second floor of the house, Xia Hong sat cross-legged on a wooden bed, in front of him was an iron cauldron with a diameter of twenty centimeters, containing some leftover medicine residue.

Xia Hong closed his eyes tightly, and the skin around his body was surging, while fine pores were constantly emitting thin strands of blood energy.

The blood energy grew increasingly dense, enveloping his body, seemingly like the process of cocooning, gradually forming an oval-shaped blood-colored sheath.

Pop........

As the blood cocoon fully formed, Xia Hong’s pores stopped emitting blood energy. Instead, the flesh and blood beneath his skin began to slowly rise, and then gradually contracted.

Starting from the top of his head, down to his face, neck, chest, and back...

All the way to the soles of his feet, after repeating the process of expansion and contraction, Xia Hong suddenly opened his eyes.

Boom........

The blood cocoon suddenly shattered, and although Xia Hong didn’t do anything, his body seemed to have grown heavier by several times, directly collapsing the wooden bed.

Xia Hong stood up from the ground and took a slight breath, gathering all the dispersed blood energy towards his nostrils and inhaling it back in.

”All the flesh and blood in my body have regenerated once, doubling in strength. Even if the skin is broken, the flesh can provide me with a certain level of defense. As long as I’m not hit in any vital area, ordinary injuries can be healed during combat through the regenerative ability of flesh and blood. This is the Mid-stage Cold Resistance, and this is just the effect of flesh regenerating once!”

Xia Hong felt the formidable strength within his blood and flesh, looked extremely exhilarated as he clenched his fist to sense his power, his eyes immediately shining with keen brilliance.

”Fifteen pounds of Jade Bone not only allowed me to break through to the Mid-stage Cold Resistance, but my strength has also increased to twenty-one鬃. Across the entire Longyou, apart from Li Tianhua, there’s no one stronger than me anymore!”

Hou Hu kept his word. As soon as he returned to Zhaoyang, he immediately ordered his people to deliver the twenty pounds of Jade Bone he promised earlier, along with five drops of Cold Apple Jade Dew, and included the formula for boiling the Jade Bone.

He even thoughtfully asked Xia Hong if he needed help to boil it.

This showed that he treated Xia Hong as one of his own.

Boiling Jade Bone requires more than the Cold Apple Jade Dew and Jade Bone. Zhu Yinhua, White Frost Grass, and eight other herbs, along with a massive amount of coal stone. Xia Hong could hardly refuse when Zhaoyang was willing to provide them.

In two days, under Xia Hong’s extensive supervision, all fifteen pounds of Jade Bone were boiled according to the formula.

Finally able to use Jade Bone for a legitimate Cold Resistance Level cultivation, Xia Hong picked up the boiled Jade Bone Soup and eagerly began his seclusion.

The effect of the first use was surprisingly good.

As he had expected, after consuming the Jade Bone, the biggest reaction was from his internal flesh. Unlike the sun exposure method, which brings cold light into the body to damage the flesh to achieve regeneration, the regenerative effect of the flesh after consuming the Jade Bone was a hundredfold, no, perhaps even thousandfold.

After consuming the Jade Bone Soup, his internal flesh began to collapse, transforming into strands of blood energy that seeped out from the skin, and then the powerful energy from the Jade Bone reorganized the collapsed flesh, forming new, stronger flesh.

”Mid-stage, Late Stage, Peak, flesh can regenerate three rounds in total, the first round having such effects. When my strength grows to thirty-six鬃, I’ll enter the second round, when my flesh strength and regenerative capacity will soar again. By the third time, with strength reaching seventy-two鬃, my flesh strength might rival that of Advanced Cold Beasts......”
