He casually tossed the Thunder Falcon Boat, which had already been upgraded to a top-grade magical artifact level, beside Ji Yuan, then leaped out from behind the desk.
"Co on, kid, let’s have a fight to loosen up your muscles!"
"Take this punch from !"
Isle Master Tie Chui swung his fist, as large as a sandbag, towards Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan reacted quickly, using force in his hands to propel himself backward while simultaneously putting away the Thunder Falcon Boat on the ground.
Isle Master Tie Chui’s fist landed on the ground with a dull thud.
Getting up, Ji Yuan noticed that the strength in his body was indeed beyond comparison to before, not to ntion the seemingly endless power from within.
Even his reaction and movent speed had significantly increased.
Could it be that his body refinent had truly succeeded?!
"Don’t run away, kid, co and try hitting with a punch!"
Isle Master Tie Chui laughed heartily as he shouted.
Ji Yuan raised his head again, thinking that since Isle Master Tie Chui was also soone who had mastered body refinent, he could freely display his skills to gauge the true strength of his body now.
"Alright!"
Ji Yuan charged head-on, and the two of them threw punches at each other.
"Boom—"
The collision of their fists generated a powerful shockwave.
Ji Yuan felt as if his right arm struck an iron wall, not budging an inch, instead causing his own hand to throb with pain.
After that, there were no more words exchanged.
There were no techniques involved either; the two simply exchanged heavy blows, punching each other back and forth.
If they could dodge, they would; if not, they would take a hit head-on.
After all, body cultivators had thick skin and robust flesh, so taking a punch wasn’t a big deal, and recovery was quick.
Thus, they fought for nearly the ti it takes for an incense stick to burn, until the swollen and bruised Isle Master Tie Chui backed up to the side of the Iron Furnace, panting as he said, "No more, no more."
Ji Yuan, who also wasn’t left with much intact skin, then lowered his fists.
"Is the senior conceding then? When I get out, I have to say that I, Ji Yuan, was beaten by a Foundation Establishnt cultivator."
Ji Yuan saw the Sword Boat floating in front of him and quickly corrected himself.
"Heh, just like Xu Fugui, not a decent thing."
Isle Master Tie Chui returned to Xu Fugui’s side, picking up a roasted lamb leg to eat voraciously.
Seeing his master, whose hands were still trembling uncontrollably, Xu Fugui couldn’t help but sigh inwardly; having practiced body cultivation himself, he could naturally see that his master was genuinely unable to continue, rather than just being courteous.
When it cos to boxing.
In the end, fists fear the young and strong.
Ji Yuan, now only in his twenties, whereas Isle Master Tie Chui?
Over two hundred years old, he was already approaching the end of his lifespan.
Ji Yuan, having achieved body refinent, felt a surge of morale and went directly to the two n, eating the at on the table without reservation.
Getting caught up in the excitent, he even lifted a cup of wine.
"Co, cheers!"
"..."
After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, it was only when he heard Xu Fugui bid farewell that Ji Yuan beca alert again.
Approaching Isle Master Tie Chui, whom he had t for the first ti and who had given him such a generous gift, Ji Yuan respectfully bowed.
Isle Master Tie Chui accepted the bow calmly.
Seeing Ji Yuan rise, he said, sitting down boldly:
"Ji boy."
"I’m here, senior."
"I have reached the end of the path of body cultivation, but you haven’t yet. As long as you don’t give up on this path, you are bound to achieve a body like Vajra; as for what lies beyond... Over the years, I have searched through nurous ancient texts and always felt that the path of body cultivation shouldn’t be so short; it likely continues beyond."
"But I can’t go any further, so you go in my stead and see."
After saying this, Isle Master Tie Chui appeared to relax his obsession, feeling much lighter.
"Alright, I will!"
Ji Yuan nodded vigorously.
As he spoke, he had already looked at the panel of the [Pigsty].
His body refinent path was facilitated by the architectural effect of the [Pigsty]; currently, it was at level 2, and once it reached level 3, each pig would produce a "Quenching Acupoint Pearl."
His gut told Ji Yuan that this pearl was likely connected to body refinent as well.
"Senior, dare I ask how to break through from accomplished body refinent to having a body like Vajra?"
"Quench the acupoints, quench all 361 acupoints in your body to perfection, and once your physique is harmonious, you will naturally step into the Vajra realm."
Inwardly, Ji Yuan exclaid, "Just as expected!"
Thus, it seed the upgrade of the level 3 [Pigsty] could also be put on the agenda.
After bidding farewell to Isle Master Tie Chui, it took Ji Yuan and Xu Fugui over a day to return to Chulong Island, arriving once again in the middle of the night.
Deep in the night.
Ji Yuan was still piloting the Scarlet Skies Skiff back to his No. 18 Cave Mansion, but before his boat even landed, he noticed two flying boats landing in front of him.
These two were together, and they happened to be his two neighbors with whom he had major conflicts.
As Ji Yuan spotted them, they naturally saw him as well.
So, after landing, they started pointing fingers at each other, cursing loudly.
"You damned thief, still following , what, do you want to give you one to be your mother?!"
The young Tang Ran quickly retorted: "You? Fit?!"
"Old man, you’re just an object of our amusent."
Ji Yuan watched the pair, pondering: Although they seem to be arguing intensely, during the journey back, they didn’t display any signs of quarreling. So perhaps their contention is just a façade?
They seed like smart individuals.
Not wanting to get involved, Ji Yuan nodded slightly to each, then returned to his courtyard, locked the door, and decided not to respond to anyone knocking.
Only once back at his residence on Chulong Island did Ji Yuan feel settled.
