However, behind these seemingly simple movements lies endless mystery. This is because the Five Elements Stance Exercise is not merely limited to stillness; it is more like a dynamic and ever-changing form of artistic gymnastics.

As time went by, Chen Feng's body began to sway slightly and rhythmically. His arms would sometimes extend and sometimes retract; his legs would sometimes bend at the knees and squat, and sometimes stand straight.

Every subtle movement was perfectly timed, as if they were one with the surrounding air.

This slow and graceful form of exercise not only adjusts body posture but also promotes blood circulation, keeping the body in a delicate balance.

Gradually, a surge of intense energy emerged from Chen Feng's body and quickly spread to every corner of his body.

The heat flow was like surging magma, creating a wave of heat wherever it went.

Chen Feng felt as if his blood was on fire, churning and surging violently.

At the same time, a large amount of primal blood that was originally hidden deep within the body also awakened, galloping like wild horses, eager to break free of their restraints.

Driven by this powerful force, Chen Feng focused intently on guiding these restless primordial bloods to converge.

After a series of arduous and extraordinary efforts, it was finally successfully refined into a drop of dazzling golden blood!

The whole process took only five minutes, but compared to the usual long and difficult training progress, this was incredibly fast—five or six times faster!

Three hours later, the effects of the Blood Nourishing Fruit wore off, but Chen Feng had already refined nearly forty drops of golden blood, and even his Qi and blood value had increased by 3.5 points, which greatly surprised him.

If the effects of the Blood Nourishing Fruit can be maintained, then consuming these dozen or so Blood Nourishing Fruits can help Chen Feng increase his Qi and Blood value by 40-50 points, allowing him to break through to the mid-stage of the seventh rank ahead of schedule.

"Compared to the Blood Nourishing Fruit, the effects of other auxiliary medicines and spiritual fruits are too mediocre. Of course, they are still more helpful than refining blood yourself."

"But we should be content. Ordinary martial artists need several years to refine their blood, while I can probably reach the peak of the seventh rank within half a year, and then begin refining my internal organs to break through to the sixth rank. That's already much faster."

Chen Feng pondered to himself, wondering where the werewolf had found the Blood Nourishing Fruit. He wished he could discover its origin and obtain a large number of Blood Nourishing Fruit trees.

At that time, not only him, but also the cultivation speed of human seventh-grade martial artists would be faster, thus giving rise to more middle-third-grade martial artists.

Of course, Chen Feng also knew that strategic resources like the Blood Nourishing Fruit Tree were probably rare even among the werewolves; otherwise, their supply points wouldn't have only a dozen or so, and they wouldn't have kept them sealed in jade boxes.

Early in the morning of December 17th, the outside world became lively. Except for the soldiers on night shift who went to rest, the others, including the guards, were either standing guard or practicing controlling their sword energy.

A few days after Chen Feng disappeared, he reappeared in the training ground and began to instruct everyone on the training of stance training and sword qi storm. Everyone's enthusiasm was very high, because in just five or six days, twenty or thirty new seventh-grade martial artists had been added to the stronghold.

"I also want to become a seventh-grade martial artist." More veterans at the peak of the eighth grade gritted their teeth and persevered, striving to break through to the seventh grade realm.

"I want to upgrade my Sword Qi Storm to perfection, and then learn the C-level Sword Qi Storm." Many veterans thought to themselves, and they all worked hard to practice controlling their sword qi, slowly trying to fuse their sword qi.

With Chen Feng's guidance, what was originally a very difficult task has now become much easier, letting the veterans know that this is an opportunity. Whether they can break through to the seventh rank or learn the C-level sword qi storm depends on their efforts during this period.

Even Si Yuniang and Fang Zhongda, as well as the original seventh-rank platoon leaders, deputy platoon leaders, guard squad leaders, special operations squad leaders, etc., all sought Chen Feng's advice on stance training and sword qi storm.

Seeing so many warriors break through to the seventh rank, they immediately felt threatened. If they didn't work hard, they might be surpassed by their comrades, and their positions would be in jeopardy.

"Instructor Chen, could you please take a look and see if there's anything in my stance training that needs adjustment?"

"Instructor Chen, how can I better integrate the hundred sword energies?"

"Instructor Chen, I feel that my blood refining has not been very effective lately, and my progress seems slow. Is there anything I can do?"

"Instructor Chen, I feel that my Sword Qi Storm is almost perfect, but it's still missing something. Could you please give me some guidance?"

When asked questions by high-ranking officers at the stronghold, Chen Feng patiently answered them. As for some questions that he himself might not know the answers to, he could only discuss them with everyone.

In this atmosphere, under the pressure of the werewolf siege, the entire stronghold of No. 1 was surprisingly not as restless as it would be in the face of a major battle. Instead, it was full of vitality, with everyone taking advantage of their spare time to cultivate diligently.

"It's great to see this. These old soldiers have learned to work hard and improve themselves. They no longer spend their free time bragging and fighting. They will all be successful in the future."

While cultivating, Si Yuniang looked at everything inside the stronghold, her heart filled with joy. She even suddenly had the idea of ​​leaving Chen Feng at Stronghold No. 1.

However, she then dismissed the idea. After all, Chen Feng was the top freshman this year and would definitely have to return to the human realm to participate in the Great Xia Martial Arts School Freshman Competition at the end of the year. Moreover, his future lay not in the frontier stronghold, but on a much broader stage.
