Qing Shui released his Qi according to the ancient enhancement technique, attempting to break through the barrier of the 48th cycle repeatedly, up to the 49th cycle, but it was to no avail. The barrier was as insurmountable as a great mountain, and despite his greatest efforts, he couldn't budge it at all. Qing Shui bit his teeth, ignoring and enduring the pain! This was precisely the focus of the ancient enhancement technique—to use the pain from the backlash to temper one's body!
With a sigh, Qing Shui decided to rest temporarily. Breaking through the main bottleneck to the fourth level of the ancient enhancement technique did not seem easy.
