With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal Chapter 83: Introduction to Hard Skills, Chen Tie’s Strike T

Early next morning.

On the rooftop.

The morning sun slowly rises in the sky.

ng Chuan sits cross-legged on the ground, adopting the posture shown in the diagram of the Qi Nourishing Armor Technique.

His hands naturally rest on his knees, palms facing upwards, with his body’s center of gravity lowered.

As ti passes, ng Chuan gradually finds the correct breathing rhythm, becoming long and steady.

Finally, the first ray of light pierces through the clouds, falling upon him.

Simultaneously, ng Chuan senses wisps of purple qi faintly erging from the air, converging towards him.

Feeling joyful inside, he hastily guides his breath to draw in these precious purple qi.

The purple qi flows along his ridians, wherever it passes, ng Chuan can feel a warm power nurturing his body.

His skin emits a slight reddish hue, as if infused with new vitality.

As the purple qi slowly rges with his body, it converges within the Yongquan acupoint after a mont.

Qi Nourishing Armor Technique: Beginner (2%) Waiting to Break Limit

Limit Breaking Trait: Flesh Flower (Interdiate)

After about ten minutes, the early sun hangs high, and the purple qi between heaven and earth disappears completely.

ng Chuan interrupts this peculiar cultivation state and turns to check the panel.

The panel flickers with faint light; seeing the trait section only displaying ’Interdiate’ rather than the anticipated ’Advanced’ trait, he has so thoughts.

"Perhaps only cultivation techniques above True Skill level can obtain advanced traits through limit breaking."

With Armor Technique at the beginner level, ng Chuan contemplates his future cultivation plan.

He plans to co to the rooftop every morning to absorb the purple qi for internal nurturing.

Then during the day, he’ll look for Teacher Chen Tie for an hour of external training.

Last night, Luo Guanyun talked to ng Chuan about so key points of external training in Hard Skills.

"Hard Qigong is also martial arts, naturally those with certain innate talent can train faster,

but more importantly, it’s the body’s willpower that can endure the pain of getting hit, to achieve an extraordinary physique, for undergoing external training is the core point of Hard Skills cultivation."

"However, external training harms the body, one must apply nurturing ointnt afterwards to not leave long-term injuries on the body."

"In ancient tis, why did many external skill masters often die young? It’s because internal body issues led to a decline in qi and blood."

Before sleeping last night, ng Chuan had already purchased ointnts online for external skill training.

Now, with fast logistics, the ointnt is already with the delivery man, being delivered.

Currently, the Martial Arts rchant Mall has four types of ointnts for external skill cultivation for sale.

Prices range from low to high: Muscle Nourishing Ointnt, Bone Tempering Blood Formation Ointnt, Vajra Strong Tendon Ointnt, and Mixed Elent Body Refining Ointnt.

Having a decent amount of money, ng Chuan spent one hundred thousand at once to buy enough Muscle Nourishing Ointnt for half a year.

Applying Muscle Nourishing Ointnt after external training can effectively relieve muscle fatigue, assist introductory external skill cultivation, and help cultivators quickly recover physical strength, just right for him to use currently.

Moreover, Luo Guanyun didn’t recomnd him using the other three more expensive ones now.

"Those three have too strong a dicinal effect, you can’t withstand it, but you absolutely cannot save money on the Muscle Nourishing Ointnt!"

...

Ping’an Middle School Martial Arts Dojo.

Wooden Man Posture area, ng Chuan is doing punching exercises alone and waiting for Teacher Chen Tie for class.

The punch wind is fierce, the iron core poured wooden stakes tremble violently under the strikes.

Luos’s Baji: Proficient (12%) → (13%) Waiting to Break Limit

Fist skill and pile skill are the main ones practiced daily, ng Chuan stands still with closed eyes, carefully sensing his body.

Every improvent in fist skill will bring an increase in qi and blood; ng Chuan senses another stream of heat entering his body’s limbs and ridians from the mysterious acupoint within.

The difficulty of cultivating Luo’s Baji is indeed far greater than Cannon Fist, less than 10% improvent after more than ten days of practice.

While contemplating, ng Chuan sees a giant bear wearing a black martial arts uniform walking over, it’s Teacher Chen Tie himself.

"Xiaong, you punch really well."

ng Chuan smiles faintly and says:

"Teacher overpraises."

"I see you ssaged , now ready to start practicing Hard Skills?"

"Yes, I’d like to ask teacher to give so external training."

"It’s no big deal, what cultivation technique are you practicing?"

"I’m practicing Qi Nourishing Armor Technique, please guide more teacher."

Upon hearing this, Chen Tie is shocked.

"Oh, this technique is formidable, but I’ve heard the difficulty is substantial, Master Luo must have great confidence in you."

Chen Tie extends his broad-knuckled, rough as old leather hand to ng Chuan, then says maliciously:

"I practice Shaolin Vajra Palm and Iron Cloth Shirt, especially good at external training cultivation; just worried you might not withstand a few tis."

ng Chuan thinks for a mont, then says:

"Teacher, please go ahead, let try first."

Martial artists don’t fuss over minor matters, ng Chuan directly takes off the top of his martial arts uniform, revealing a strong body.

"Ready?"

"Go ahead, teacher."

Chen Tie was rely trying to scare him with a few words earlier; for the trick played on him days ago, he wouldn’t strike hard now.

Chen Tie channels power into his palms, the hands slightly emit power, then begins alternating palm strikes on ng Chuan’s body.

The crisp sound of palm strikes echoes incessantly, ng Chuan’s whole body trembles upon feeling the power, muscles tensing instantly.

"Relax, don’t tense up so much, use the breathing thod from your technique to channel qi."

ng Chuan takes a deep breath, trying to adjust his breathing rhythm, as he breathes in and out, the body slowly begins to feel sothing.

The sound of the strikes was not small, many classmates around saw this scene.

Hu Jiaxiang whispered secretly:

"Your Brother Tie is taking revenge, hitting so hard."

"Of course, this is training in external techniques, hitting is justified."

"However, your Brother Chuan is indeed tough, his body is swollen all over but he’s not making a sound."

Seeing ng Chuan and Chen Tie focused on striking, the classmates didn’t disturb them, watched for a while and went on to practice their own punches.

Next sumr is the martial arts exam, without effort, one can only attend third-rate martial arts colleges.

The striking continued, every slap left a red mark on ng Chuan’s skin.

But he still didn’t make a sound, his eyes showed resilience, without any retreat.

Chen Tie’s striking seed fierce and ruthless, but in fact, he had quite a good grasp of the intensity.

Every slap was perfectly stimulating ng Chuan’s skin and muscles.

"Alright, that’s it for today’s striking, excess is not good."

The one-hour striking session flew by, ng Chuan’s whole body was covered with dense red marks.

"How is it Xiaong, how is the teacher’s striking effect?"

"Quite exhilarating, feels good!"

Glancing at the progress bar, ng Chuan noticed the Qi Nourishing Armor Technique’s proficiency advanced by 1%, and it should increase slightly more after applying the ointnt for recovery.

Calculating this way, in about a month’s ti he could achieve proficiency.

Although physically exhausted, his desire to beco stronger could overco any difficulty.

"Did you bring your external technique ointnt? Apply it quickly while the pores are open, it’s the best recovery effect."

"I brought it, teacher."

"Alright, I’ll help you apply it on the back, the rest you can reach yourself."

The mont the ointnt touched the body, a cool sensation surged instantly, followed by the body absorbing the dicinal effect, emitting a slightly warm feeling.

"Bear with it, it hurts at first, but you’ll feel great later."

ng Chuan took the ointnt and applied it to the other areas himself, slowly relieving the aching sensation and relaxing the muscles.

"Alright, don’t practice more today, practicing more will affect your punching, honestly, external techniques are just minor paths, Qi Blood is always the most important."

It was rare for Teacher Chen Tie to preach, ng Chuan nodded in agreent.

"By the way, are you going to practice body technique now? I happen to accompany you."

Chen Tie’s thought was simple, trying to regain face while ng Chuan was physically unfit.

"No teacher, maybe in a few days."

ng Chuan planned to find Master Luo to learn a new body technique, he wanted to try [Acupoint Access], to see how it improves the comprehension of body technique martial arts.

Chen Tie said with slight regret:

"Alright."

...

After finishing the stance exercises in the evening, ng Chuan lay on the bed with a weary body.

He wasn’t sleepy yet, after all, it was the first ti his body wasn’t accustod to the striking, ng Chuan took out his phone and casually browsed in the Martial Arts rchant Mall.

Opening the [Online Course Section], he found a course nad [External Technique Basic Theory] among many paid courses.

The course was taught by a reputable figure, the Professor Henglian from Southern United Martial Arts University, the Fourth Limit Grandmaster [Thick Earth Dragon King Chen Yu].

He opened it and found the first lesson available for free trial.

After half an hour, ng Chuan realized ti had flown.

Opening the remaining 17 lessons, after a 10% discount it required 180 yuan to watch, ng Chuan didn’t hesitate and directly purchased it.

In hard skill horizontal training, he was just a beginner, and after listening to this lesson, he indeed gained a lot, sincerely praising in his heart:

"Truly a professor from an exceptional martial arts university, this level is amazing!"

In the Great Chu, the well-known martial arts experts would basically hold positions and teach in top martial arts universities.

Every professor and ntor was the master of the cultivation technique they practiced.

Through this external technique basic theory, one could see the whole picture, thinking of this, ng Chuan beca more determined to be admitted into Northern United University’s Grandmaster Class.

...

anwhile, at Yuan Huan’s ho.

As the page finished loading, Yuan Huan successfully entered the dark web [Dark World].

His eyes quickly scanned the screen, finally settling on the "Black Water Service Company" column, and clicked it without hesitation.

It was one of the three biggest Demon Path scourges within Great Chu, "Money makes the world go round" — Black Water Service Company.

A business category popped up on the page, from top to bottom it read [Kidnap][Assassination][Hire]...[Other Services].

Opening hire services, looking at the refreshed prices and service level descriptions on the screen, Yuan Huan frowned slightly.

The money in his pocket was mostly spent on purchasing a set of demonic magical artifacts.

"It’s daylight robbery, this is damn expensive."

After browsing for a while, Yuan Huan understood in his heart, a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Zong He is nothing but an old man at the ninth gate with declining Qi Blood, not much capability, and with those ordinary teachers in the school, even if there’s an accident, hiring a level three squad should be sufficient."

Thinking this, a trace of cruelty flashed in Yuan Huan’s eyes.

He was tired of slowly dragging days and planned to make a big move to achieve grandmaster status and then directly flee far away.

After a while, the computer screen displayed the transaction completion.

Yuan Huan activated the demon seed within his body, in an instant, a black fog ford chain erged from his body, connecting directly to the back of the door.

Monts later, the door opened quietly, the figures of the Hu brothers appeared silently.

The two were expressionless, standing in front of Yuan Huan without speaking.

"Dear disciples, you’ve worked hard, as your teacher, there’s an important task to assign to you..."
