Years pass by 4

Isaac who had been practicing the Estrella families qi art found that his practice speed had significantly improved while he was close to Ki ever since she had robbed such an abundance of fate from the hands of many forces.

Along with that huge boost in training speed gained while his martial arts and body did not show much improvement he found that he was gaining more insight into his fate eye technique the most and it wasn't long before he found himself at the peak realm with the help of the qi boosting pill and the additional dragon qi or fate energy surrounding Ki and the Bombyx family helped him push forward to the transcendent realm a year later.

After his breakthrough his fate eye technique had improved and he continued to improve his mastery of it which had lead to spotting many problems that were approaching the village that had ill intent.

Once alerted those people were monitored for some time and then either subdued or killed depending on how dangerous they are and if they put up a struggle.

Thanks to his alerts the white wolves and Leon had many opportunities to gain experience and Ki, Lumi and Rashida stepped out along with the blood shadow group if there were times when it was predicted by Isaac to be more dangerous.

After a long time of practicing the blood Buddha qi art, body tempering art along with her martial forms Rashida had reached a high mastery of the use of her scimitar and her martial forms after gaining much experience in many life and death battles constantly honing her techniques and gathering lots of vitality.

Many of the members under her were rapidly growing alongside her and were not any slower than her.

In fact many had already surpassed her because of the abundant blood qi within their bodies that could no longer be restrained.

Many transcendent and peak martial artists appeared within their group but they still were lacking in some places so needed to continue to train their body and gain more insight into their martial arts but they were constantly being given opportunities to practice.

Rashida had a slower practice speed because of the need for more blood qi to temper her skin, muscles and tendons and then replenish what she had lost with newly gathered vitality from the bodies of the dead stored within her storage space in her mystic arts.

Luckily she had her mystic arts to keep a storage of her vitality so her training was not slowed down even further and it was not long before she followed behind some of her people and became a transcendent martial artist and then moved onto tempering her bones with her blood qi.

Whenever she entered a battle she was known for her bewitching sword dance that used her large scimitar that sliced through her enemies like a wave passing through and followed by another close behind which held even more power that was built up from the first strike, as the first wave crashed the second one followed behind and then the next even stronger each time she fought.

Not only were Rashida and the blood shadow group rarely ever seen except combat or training but Ki began to put them to use in other ways.

As the fifty one members of Ki's closest subordinates she personally prepared a silkworm or silk moth Gu for them all after using many resources over the years they had the ability to now use their Gu worms along with their blood mystical arts to collect vitality from others which made them even more versatile and deadly and less likely to die from poison.

The upgraded silk that was produced by their Gu worms regularly if fed enough blood or poison was supplied to Ki and the Bombyx family to be weaved and made into clothing while some kept a little of theirs to make traps with or to use to strangle and cut an enemies throat from behind.

Thanks to their contribution Ki was able to get a fresh and steady supply of high quality and very durable silk that was above what the Bombyx family had previously been selling.

Beneath their masks they all copied their leader Ki as they idolised her for various reasons and wore their Gu mark in the same position as her along with Rashida who joined them in order to show solidarity.

After they had completed the Gu ritual they could finally put to use various tactics that Ki had mentioned in the past in order to capture and subdue anyone who seemed to be hostile towards the village.

While they could make use of the vitality gu they did not get taught how to make other Gu worms by Ki because now wasn't the time for the qi suppressing Gu and puppet Gu to appear in the world.
