This Side-effect Is Great

Chapter 15: Don’t Come Again

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Song Ankang felt very good when the Fate-Defying Heaven Manual transformed the first wave of Traceless Snow Steps.

Song Ankang still felt very good when the Fate-Defying Heaven Manual transformed the second wave of side effects.

However, when the third wave of side effects of the Fate-Defying Heaven Manual awakened the sleeping Song Ankang, he didn’t feel that good anymore.

The fourth wave of side effects awakened the sleeping Song Ankang again. Song Ankang began to think that it was a little too frequent.

Even though it felt good, he couldn’t stand it anymore, especially since it would delay his normal rest. He couldn’t take a break in the future.

However, he had already cultivated the Traceless Snow Steps and the side effects were still so powerful. He couldn’t just give up, right? Giving up would also severely injure his cultivation realm.

Even though he had the Fate-Defying Heaven Manual, Song Ankang still confirmed one thing, which was that Traceless Snow Steps was really a demonic martial technique.

Helpless, Song Ankang could only continue to endure the waves of pleasure from Traceless Snow Steps. Slowly, he felt that he had practiced the wrong movement technique.

Thinking of how proud he had been before practicing the Traceless Snow Steps, Song Ankang had the urge to beat him up.

The pleasure he felt after cultivating Traceless Snow Steps was all because of the water in his brain before he cultivated Traceless Snow Steps.

Under this high-intensity side effect, Song Ankang’s attainments in Traceless Snow Step soared, and he advanced to the Minor Mastery stage the next day.

After the initial success, the frequency of the side effects had decreased slightly, but the intensity had increased. This caused Song Ankang to find a place to hide every time he had an attack, lest he embarrass himself in front of others.

However, even so, she was still a little slow. He cried out in front of Qiu Shi, scaring her so much that she covered her face and fled. She thought that Song Ankang was hinting at something.

This made Song Ankang rather embarrassed. He began to practice how to endure this feeling without batting an eyelid.

But thinking about it occasionally, it actually felt really good.

Under the wake-up call of the lilac girl (the female ghost), Song Ankang lived a very fulfilling life in the following days. He practiced techniques during the day and fought at night. When he was free, he would practice the Hidden Heaven and Earth Technique. From time to time, he even let Jiang Yunhe practice with him. His combat experience and combat skills were also improving rapidly.

With the help of the Fate-Defying Heaven Manual, Song Ankang quickly raised his strength to the limit of the Bone Refinement Realm, preparing to break through the bottleneck of the Internal Realm.

“Bone Tempering Fist!”

Song Ankang practiced the Bone Tempering Fist three times in a row and did not look at the hint of the Seven Wounds Demonic Sutra. He took the ten-year-old ginseng medicinal cuisine and began to circulate the Seven Wounds Demonic Sutra. At the same time, he waited for the feedback of the side effects and then broke through to the Internal Realm.

Even though Song Ankang could still punch again, or even twice, and then directly faint and wait for the side effects to take effect, the Internal Realm involved key organs such as the internal organs. If he broke through in a coma, it was very easy for accidents to happen.

Therefore, Song Ankang did not often slack off and use his coma to break through like he did in the fourth minor realm of External Realm. Instead, he endured the pain brought by the Bone Tempering Fist.

Sensing that his bones were about to shatter, Song Ankang’s mental will was unprecedentedly clear. He kept circulating the Bone Tempering Fist to recover his damaged bones so that more side effects could help him break through to the Internal Realm.

From external realm to internal realm was a big bottleneck. Once one stepped into it, they would be a second-rate martial artist. They would be considered a small expert in the martial world. There were thousands of people in Tongxin Town, and the strongest was only at the second level of internal realm. It could be imagined how rare internal realm martial artists were.

“The Fate-Defying Heaven Manual has accumulated enough energy and is beginning to play a role… your wounds are being healed, your blood vitality is increasing, your bones are strengthening!”

A few hours later, the side effects of the Fate-Defying Heaven Manual’s transformation came as promised. Because the damage to the bones had been cured by the ten-year-old ginseng, these transformed side effects gathered in front of the bottleneck dam and surged towards it under Song Ankang’s control.

The path of cultivation went from the outside to the inside, layer by layer. First, there was external realm, then internal realm. The experience left behind over thousands of years was not just for show.

After advancing to the extreme of the Bone Refinement Realm, the qi and blood of the seven wounds in Song Ankang’s body had reached an extreme in terms of purity and strength. It could break through the bottleneck and enter the five viscera without any side effects.

The bottleneck was quickly broken through. Next, the qi and blood of the seven wounds could smoothly enter the five organs without harming them at all.

Fortunately, the purity of qi and blood of the seven wounds had reached an extremely high level, and Song Ankang’s control over it had also reached a sufficient level. He carefully controlled the qi and blood of the seven wounds and entered his internal organs like threads, starting from his heart.

Knock, knock, knock…

As the qi and blood of the seven wounds’s blood entered his body, his heart beat much faster, but it did not hurt his heart at all.

Only then did Song Ankang heave a sigh of relief. He carefully maneuvered his qi and blood of the seven wounds, tempering his heart bit by bit.

The heart was the center of the five organs and also the central hub of the entire human body’s bloodline. The heart transported qi and blood throughout the body through the bloodline, and it was also the main consciousness. It was the center of mental, consciousness, and thought activity and was extremely dominant in the human body. Therefore, the refinement of the five organs first started from the heart.

As his heart was tempered and improved, Song Ankang could clearly feel his body becoming stronger and his mental will becoming more active. When this feeling reached an extreme, it also meant that Song Ankang had broken through to a new realm and stabilized.

Internal Tempering First Minor realm: Internal Organs!

Once the internal organs were tempered, they could breathe deeply and have long stamina. The so-called walking like a galloping horse and jumping like a bird referred to this realm.

Even though he had just entered the heart to temper it, Song Ankang’s endurance had almost doubled. His other aspects had also improved, especially the qi and blood of the seven wounds.

In terms of overall strength, the current Song Ankang could defeat him more than two times. It could be imagined how much his strength had increased after stepping into the Internal Realm.

Now, he could easily take down twenty or thirty people at once, let alone ten.

His strength was already close to 1,000 kilograms, and his speed had reached a few seconds and 100 meters. His reaction speed was also able to instantly slash out several times… It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a little superman.

Back on Earth, Song Ankang would never have thought that he would one day possess such tyrannical strength. It was simply like a dream.

If he could return to Earth with such strength, most sports would be a piece of cake for him. He could easily win the championship.

Even if he was asked to play for the men’s football team, Song Ankang was confident that he could lead the national team to the World Cup finals. There was no other reason. When his physical fitness reached a certain level, many events were like a child’s game to him.

Unfortunately, this was the Mystic Desolate Continent, and Song Ankang could not return to Earth. There were too many existences stronger than him here. Song Ankang was just a small fry.

Even though he had successfully advanced to the Internal Realm, he was not happy for long before he thought of something that worried him.
