The first thing Zhong Li learned about bones was to attempt to merge them with his own power. The ancient breath of the bones reacted in a wondrous way with Zhong Li's time-worn geo power. The use of bones involved inscribing them onto a body or vessel, which would then influence that vessel. Moreover, once used, the bones would automatically dissipate their power.
However, Zhong Li could directly allow the bones to carry his geo power, and even after use, he could quickly inscribe them again using his geo energy. It could be said that the bones and Zhong Li were remarkably compatible. Although Zhong Li learned relatively quickly, the number of bones he could use was still quite limited, consisting of only a few simple characters for basic attacks and defenses.
Nonetheless, this had significantly enhanced his strength. For instance, Zhong Li's shield was now capable of withstanding any casual strike from Liu Shen. Unlike before, when Zhong Li would create a shield only for Liu Shen to break it effortlessly. In terms of offense, there wasn't much special; it merely doubled the impact and damage.
Now, Zhong Li had gained some self-defense capability in this vast wilderness, allowing Li Yunqing to take him out for a stroll. As for Li Tianqi and Li Qinghu, they were currently unoccupied, and Li Yunqing could return at any time.
Li Yunqing and Zhong Li arrived at the training ground for the children. Li Qinghu was struggling to lift his Hei Ding while shouting out loud. "One thousand eight hundred sixty!" He slowly lowered it and then strained to lift it again. "One thousand eight hundred sixty-six!"
Li Qinghu's strength training was quite simple; he just needed to lift heavy objects. This was also a matter of physical constitution. At least after training, Li Shouling felt that his own strength seemed to have increased as well—not in muscle strength but in spiritual power. This should also be the essence of One Body Two Souls; their origins were intertwined, growing stronger or weaker together.
Li Shouling was currently cheering for Li Qinghu from the side and occasionally wandered over to Shi Village. As his spiritual power increased, the distance he could maintain from Li Qinghu also grew greater.
From time to time, Li Shouling would go with Zhong Li to learn about bones from Shi Yunfeng. Zhong Li was able to see Li Shouling, but Shi Yunfeng was unaware of this; he only knew there was an invisible entity drawing bones beside him, which startled him at first. Fortunately, Li Yunqing and Zhong Li explained it to him, revealing the existence of a Soul Entity.
Shi Yunfeng then realized that there were three children involved. Li Yunqing smiled. "You don't need to worry about the spirit guardian; just keep an eye on her. Learning these kinds of things will strengthen her soul, and perhaps one day you'll be able to see her."
Shi Yunfeng nodded. To be honest, he was quite afraid of things that were invisible and intangible. However, knowing that Li Yunqing had children made him less fearful. He even became curious about what Li Shouling was like, but since he couldn't see her, there was nothing he could do.
As for Li Qinghu's companion, Li Tianqi, he directly fixed Hei Ding in place and then charged at it with his body. His Eternal Undying Body was only slightly less powerful than Li Qinghu in terms of strength, but the true power of the Eternal Undying Body lay in its self-healing abilities. The constant impacts caused his flesh to be damaged repeatedly, but each time it healed, it became stronger.
Li Yunqing watched as a large pool of faintly golden blood formed beneath Li Tianqi's feet but said nothing. The children were all quite sensible and understood how to improve themselves; however, they were unaware of just how formidable their father truly was.
Seeing both Li Tianqi and Li Qinghu working so hard, Li Yunqing didn't think about rushing their growth. After observing for a while, a slightly relaxed Li Tianqi finally noticed someone familiar watching him. Turning around, he saw it was Li Yunqing. His face lit up with joy at first, but then he glanced at the large pool of blood on his body. After using the Forehead Cleansing Technique, he hurried over to Li Yunqing.
"Dad! You're here!"
Li Yunqing smiled and squatted down to pat Li Tianqi's head.
