Chapter 415: Chapter 84 Ti Flies, Martial Arts Grow_2
At the sa ti, he also found that statue of a god.
Now, there were only about twenty days until the end of the year, directly about half a month earlier than the scheduled holiday.
Of course, his salary would be paid as usual.
If this were in his previous life, he would have laughed himself to death.
But here, he was sowhat helpless.
As a Deputy Commander, whether the holiday started early or not had no impact on him.
After all, he could go to the Inspection Office whenever he wanted, or not go at all if he didn’t feel like it.
This early holiday only ant that the more than one hundred thousand Contribution Points he had saved up now had no place to be used.
Originally, he had planned to follow Ji Minghao’s advice and seek a promotion.
However, due to the Inspection Office’s early holiday, this idea had to be put on hold for now.
…
In the blink of an eye.
Another week had passed.
During this ti, although the weather was not as dreadful as before—it was either snowing, or, well, snowing—
it still had not cleared up completely, and the skies were consistently overcast.
And now, Jiang Ning gazed at the red sun rising over the distant lake.
His face couldn’t help but light up with joy.
“Today is finally going to be clear!”
“My Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill can take another small step forward!”
[Skill]: Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill (small success 991/5000)
He glanced at the Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill section and then closed it.
Then his gaze fell on the Five Animals Fist section.
These days, he had found a very suitable rhythm; every ti he completed a round of boxing, it was akin to accomplishing a session of Bone Forging.
Progressing on two fronts, he reaped remarkable benefits.
[Skill]: Five Animals Fist (Second Limit Breaking 2233/3000) (Trait: Five Internal Organs Store Essence, Five Elents Spirit)
The Five Animals Fist was over two-thirds of the way toward the experience value requirent for the third limit break.
Just a few hundred points shy.
With his current efficiency, filling up these few hundred points of experience would not take much ti, just a matter of days.
At the sa ti.
He looked inwardly at his body.
The two hundred and six bones within his body, compared to just over a week ago, were now vastly different.
A week ago, his bones glead with a silvery luster, rely tinged with thin black threads.
This was the gradual progress of Xuan Bone transformation.
Now, out of the two hundred and six bones, more than half were dyed black.
The blackened bones were filled with luster, shining like obsidian.
They looked extraordinarily remarkable.
This was the process of creating Xuan Iron Bone, also known as Xuan Bone.
Fully crafting Xuan Bone was the second step in Bone Forging, rendering the body even tougher.
The bones would possess a resilience beyond that of ordinary fine iron.
At this level, martial artists would find it extrely difficult to be killed.
You must understand, the human body is enveloped by bones, large and small.
The heart too is encased by the ribs.
In such a case, even if one is struck by weapons and the flesh is opened, the attack would be stopped by the bones within.
If one cannot damage the bones, it signifies that it is very difficult to inflict a fatal wound on a martial artist of this caliber.
Moreover, with martial artists who have reached this step, their bodies already have exceptional traits, and their vitality is extrely robust.
Even if the heart is destroyed, with powerful vitality and control over their bodies, they can hang on for the ti it takes for half a cup of tea to brew.
Just like the God Worship Sect martial artist who attacked him that night.
Even after being shot through the heart by an arrow, he did not die; instead, he completed his Divine Transformation, repairing the destroyed heart.
This shows just how formidable the life force of a Sixth Grade Martial Artist is.
As long as the injury is not fatal, for a martial artist of this level, it is rely a flesh wound.
No matter how many flesh wounds, it is difficult to take the life of a martial artist whose vitality is abounding.
A mont later.
Jiang Ning slowly opened his eyes.
After thoroughly inspecting his body, he knew that through the night, his bones had fully absorbed the essence marrow of the Xuan Bone Pill, advancing further toward the transformation into Xuan Bone.
“Soon!”
“At my current pace, in another week or so, I’ll be able to fully craft my Xuan Bone.”
Jiang Ning muttered to himself.
Then he continued to practice his boxing, tempering his bones, waiting for the sun to rise higher.
In this winter, a day of clear skies was hard to co by.
Only on bright, clear days, when the clouds didn’t obstruct the blazing sun high above, could he breathe in and release the Essence of the Great Sun, increasing the Experience Value of his Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill.
A rare opportunity like this was naturally to be cherished.
Moreover, he had been persistently practicing his boxing and fortifying his bones day and night during this period.
The Second Limit Breaking Five Animals Fist, in the process of practicing boxing, could attract the Five Elents Spirit into his body, enhancing the foundation of his five internal organs and six entrails.
Absorbing the Five Elents Spirit these days, he felt the foundation of his five internal organs had strengthened significantly, truly extraordinary.
He also wanted to see what kind of changes would occur when breathing in and releasing the Sun Essence Qi with the current foundation of his five internal organs.
It should be noted that the thod to attract the Five Elents Spirit into one’s body transcended the scope of martial arts.
While Jiang Ning acknowledged the martial arts of this world were incredibly strong, he still recognized their limitations and finite developnt.
Looking back eight hundred years, there was only that one Martial Saint.
During the Ancient Tis, it was an era where Immortals and Gods coexisted.
According to so ancient texts, the Immortals and Gods of that ti were imnsely powerful.
There were mighty beings capable of devouring the sun and moon, obscuring the heavens and changing days, reversing the universe.
Such might was far beyond the martial arts of the present.
That Martial Saint had records of slaying Immortals and extinguishing Gods, yet those records were always accompanied by the words ‘Residual Immortals’ and ‘Residual Gods.’
In his view, like the Blood and Flesh God of the God Worship Sect, who could also be called a deity and possessed extraordinary power,
providing mortal martial artists with abnormal transformations along with nearly superhuman regenerative abilities.
But when it ca to strength, the power of that Blood and Flesh God was not necessarily enough to drive one to despair.
If it were truly mighty, how could the God Worship Sect be rely a minor sect?
How could they be chased and forced to flee in disarray by an Inspection Office of a county city, without the power to retaliate?
Therefore, even if that Martial Saint had the feat of slaying Immortals and extinguishing Gods, it’s likely that he was not as powerful as Immortals and Gods.
Simultaneously,
from the Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill, a thod derived from the ancient Immortal Dao practices of the Ancient Era, evolved into an Inner Strength thod.
Even so, this Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill was ranked among the highest level of Cultivation Techniques.
It was clear how formidable this Cultivation Technique was.
From this, it was evident that the Immortal Dao practices of the Ancient Tis must be stronger.
The foundation of Immortal Dao practices was certainly above the Martial Arts Skills of the present.
Why it had beco an era where martial arts flourished now, Jiang Ning did not know.
He had been curious about this before, but from the surviving books, he’d found no answers he sought.
He only knew that on a certain day,
the sun and stars dimd simultaneously, and the world fell silent.
This state lasted for several days. After those days,
the end of the Ancient Era ca about, and the environnt of heaven and earth underwent a significant change, thus heralding the era of flourishing martial arts.
Compared to the Immortal and Divine Daos, martial arts relied more on oneself and less on the external environnt.
However, they were not as strong as the Immortal Dao.
At least, that was the case at the mont.
Therefore, with the Five Animals Fist having undergone a Second Limit Breaking transformation, practicing the fist could now attract the Spirit of the Five Elents from heaven and earth into one’s body, to grow the foundation of the internal organs, strengthen the roots, and nourish the five vital essences.
Many days had passed now.
Jiang Ning wanted to see if there was any difference in his five internal organs compared to before.
Could he make the efficiency of breathing in and releasing the Great Sun Essence Qi even higher?
In these days, with the absorption of the Five Elents Spirit into the five internal organs, he could feel that even without the refining of the Sun Essence Qi, his internal organs had beco stronger.
This strength did not stem from postnatal refining.
It was as though so people, despite being naturally thin and never exercising,
had imnse innate strength, far surpassing ordinary people.
And then there were those who had acquired formidable strength through relentless postnatal physical conditioning.
Between the two, there was a fundantal difference.
The forr’s innate strength, with just a bit of postnatal training, could far exceed the latter’s and had a much higher limit.
Just like in his past life, countless athletes trained as hard as they could to hone their bodies,
but so with minimal effort beca an unattainable figure in the distance.
Like the yellow flash that ran on the track, leaving many sprinters in a state of despair.
This was the gap between postnatal and innate abilities.
The recent strengthening of his internal organs was akin to an innate-type growth,
and not the postnatal thod of refining the internal organs with the Sun Essence Qi that he had used before to enhance them.
The two differed fundantally.
Because of this, he understood the aning of that trait,
[Five Elents Spirit]: By absorbing the spirit of the Five Elents and refining one’s organs, one’s organ limits can be broken.
Breaking the limits of the organs.
Humans have innate limits.
Yet by employing the thod of absorbing the Five Elents Spirit, he could break through these innate limits.
Being able to break limits also ant that the strength of his organs could surpass that of others in the future.
His Inner Breath’s richness and magnificence could also surpass that of others.
