With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal Chapter 95 - 94: Strength Soars, Esoteric Sect’s Methods

Four days later.

Infinite Martial Arts Dojo.

In the martial arts dojo, ng Chuan was practicing his fists. As he finished the last round of the "Luo’s Eight Extres," his proficiency finally jumped a bit.

"Luo’s Eight Extres: Mastery (67%) → (68%) Pending Limit Breaking"

He felt the surging qi and blood in his ridians, significantly strengthening his vigor.

ng Chuan pondered silently:

"It’s settled, the sixth gate should be done!"

Now, he stood at the peak of the interdiate martial artist stage. One more step forward, and he would beco an advanced martial artist.

"Continue refining the fist skill to accumulate qi and blood; that day won’t be far off..."

The standard for the seventh Qi and Blood Gate is 64 points, which is the total qi and blood value required for the previous six gates. To cross it, he must go all out!

ng Chuan’s resolve strengthened once more. The little seven gates couldn’t stop him; his goal was the stars and the sea!

A strong sense of hunger struck again. After nutritional replenishnt, he entered the qi and blood testing room once his body was fully restored.

"Qi and Blood Value: 32.38 Entered 6th Gate"

Even though it was barely passing the gate, ng Chuan was still quite satisfied.

Leaving the testing room, ng Chuan exhaled a breath of stale air and assud a fist stance in front of the wooden man posture.

ng Chuan gathered strength and punched the post, his technique elusive but at the mont of contact, Dark Strength exploded!

With a muffled "thud," ng Chuan’s fist sliced like a knife, penetrating the surface bark of the wooden post and leaving a noticeable dent on the iron core within.

The students on the side were shocked. Was he even human?

"If that punch hits a person..."

"Would they explode?"

"lt away?"

"..."

ng Chuan ignored the others, got up, and attempted to practice the Cloud-Ascending Ladder while simultaneously executing the fist technique.

After practicing a few tis like this, he gradually managed to combine the two, feeling more and more in tune with the practice.

The proficiency of the Cloud-Ascending Ladder kept increasing, and when he glanced at the interface, the "Cloud-Ascending Ladder" flashed repeatedly.

"I’ve achieved enlightennt!"

ng Chuan felt that this body technique indeed resonated with him. Not only was it easy to practice, but it also triggered an enlightennt so quickly.

"Cloud-Ascending Ladder: Entry Level (24%) → (25%) Pending Limit Breaking"

...

As the last practice ended, the enlightennt quietly faded away, leaving ng Chuan feeling a sense of loss.

A curious student beside him asked:

"Judging by Senior Brother’s expression, did he just achieve enlightennt again?"

"I think so. I’ve seen Senior Brother sitting cross-legged in ditation before; I didn’t expect he could achieve enlightennt while jumping with a wooden post. Impressive!"

"Cloud-Ascending Ladder: Entry Level (72%) → (73%) Pending Limit Breaking"

The proficiency improvent notification almost flooded the screen. This was the ti ng Chuan gained the most proficiency in one breath.

ng Chuan tried the core of the Cloud-Ascending Ladder once more—Nine Consecutive Sky Ascents. He jumped up two ters high without a run-up.

After stepping on the wooden post, he continued to sprint upwards, jumping even higher again.

Then, he grabbed on to the dojo’s eight-ter-high top fra, maneuvered and flitted through the steel pipes. Even Tarzan would be ashad to see him.

ng Chuan hung on the high fra, laughing heartily in a rare mont of joy.

"Hahahaha, exhilarating!"

Isn’t this the allure of martial arts? At this mont, ng Chuan’s excitent was indescribable.

The students below were speechless, muttering quietly after a long ti:

"Mastering flying on eaves and walking on walls? Senior Brother, you..."

As his arms gradually felt slightly numb, ng Chuan turned over and gently landed on the ground.

"This is the true martial hero, flying on eaves and walking on walls as if on flat ground. Just being good at punching is at best just a warrior."

ng Chuan was in such a good mood, he decided to reward himself with half an hour of beatings.

Since the "Qi Nourishing Armor Technique" was also close to reaching the proficiency stage, ng Chuan’s skin was becoming increasingly keratinized. For the students in the second gate to hit him effectively with a wooden stick, they had to use all their strength.

After just six or seven minutes, the person getting hit didn’t have much of a response, but the students were panting with sweat.

"Brother Chuan, honestly, how about switching to this instead?"

Le Ping handed over an iron rod; ng Chuan weighed it, and it was solid indeed.

...

Four days later.

Night was silent.

In the afternoon, during sparring with Teacher Chen Tie, ng Chuan had the other go at it for more than half an hour more than usual.

Because when he checked the panel after waking up in the morning, "Qi Nourishing Armor Technique" was only two percent away from the proficient realm.

As the effect of the Muscle Regeneration Ointnt gradually faded, the last one percent was completed.

"Qi Nourishing Armor Technique: Proficient (1%) Pending Limit Breaking"

As soon as he broke through, ng Chuan felt as if ants were crawling all over his body.

He couldn’t help but start scratching all over, and as the rough dead skin peeled away bit by bit, new, elastic, brownish-yellow skin was exposed to the air.

ng Chuan looked in the mirror.

"Looks like I’ve tanned a bit."

"But it doesn’t matter, as long as I’m strong."

After admiring his body, ng Chuan decided to test the defensive power of this new skin layer to better gauge his strength during actual combat in the future.

He first picked up a fruit knife and carefully slid it across his arm.

It only left a white mark. As he tried to slowly increase the force, once the strength reached thirty percent, finally a small blood spot appeared.

"Not bad."

It’s worth noting that ng Chuan possesses the [Heavy Strike] trait, and his strength is inherently higher than others in the sa realm. This new skin is even more useful than he imagined.

Then, he lightly exerted strength, his hand hamring his abdon like a pestle.

With a "pop" sound, ng Chuan savored the feeling that his body conveyed.

"Hmm... At the mont of hamring the outer skin, a layer of force was instantly neutralized. When the strength attempted to penetrate into the internal organs, it seed to hit a layer of flexible film."

The internal nurturing of the Qi Nourishing Armor gave him a pleasant surprise; he didn’t expect its protective effect on the organs to be so direct.

ng Chuan hesitated for a mont, then stretched out his hand and put it down again.

"Forget it, the control over Dark Strength is tricky. Let’s talk about it after the Qi Nourishing Armor is perfected."

...

Lying on the bed, ng Chuan was too excited to sleep. This is the first step toward achieving Diamond Body.

ng Chuan had already watched up to the 8th segnt of Professor Chen Yu’s online course, which was thed [The Similarities and Differences Between Great Chu External Skills and Esoteric Sect Hard Skills].

This lesson was particularly intriguing for ng Chuan because [Prajna Dragon Elephant Skill] is one of the Esoteric Sect’s top thods.

[The cultivation of external skills in Great Chu mostly involves breathing thods combined with acupoint striking, supplented with body enhancing drugs, which are undeniably more advanced compared to the thods of the Western Regions’ Esoteric Sect.]

[In contrast, the external practices of the Esoteric Sect are undeniably inferior compared to Great Chu. Apart from the regular striking and application of Esoteric Sect body strengthening ointnts, there are also nurous cumberso and inefficient steps such as...]

ng Chuan listened attentively, when inspiration suddenly flashed across his mind.

Unable to continue watching, ng Chuan hurriedly went online to search for information on Esoteric Sect hard skills.

As he gradually browsed, ng Chuan developed an idea—a bold and innovative concept for body refinent began forming in his mind.

"When striking, the breathing thods must be operated, each external skill has a different breathing pattern, therefore multiple external skills can’t be practiced simultaneously."

"But the Esoteric Sect’s thod doesn’t require it. While striking, you only need to apply the body strengthening ointnt to the corresponding area in advance, the rest of the steps are completed during the muscle recovery later."

"Perhaps it can be tried to practice two external skills at once, combining Chinese and Western techniques."

Because the body needs ti to recover the damaged muscles after the beating.

The daily half-hour hitting ti is the result of extensive data validation, ensuring no damage to the body’s foundation.

No sooner said than done, start with simple attempts first.

After browsing online for a while, ng Chuan found a Western Regions inferior cultivation technique called [Doma Iron Arm].

This technique focuses exclusively on training the arms. Once perfected, the arms will be as indestructible as iron rods.

During cultivation, there are a total of three major steps.

The first is to apply the Esoteric Sect body strengthening ointnt in advance, promoting skin and muscle absorption and hardening.

Then targeting the area for striking, which can overlap with the Qi Nourishing Armor’s striking.

Lastly, at each breakthrough in progress, one needs to find a quiet place, light the special Esoteric Sect incense, and softly chant the spell scriptures to achieve the unity of spirit and body to avoid division.

"This seems to have the lowest difficulty. After applying oil and striking, the subsequent steps are simple, just need to light incense and chant a bit during breakthroughs."

With the plan sorted, ng Chuan downloaded and saved the Doma Iron Arm cultivation thod to his phone, then looked for the corresponding materials in the Martial Arts rchant Mall.

Because this incense has a calming effect, many insomniac martial artists buy a couple for use during idle tis, so its sales are quite good. After flipping a few tis in the incense area, ng Chuan found what he needed.

The price was also affordable, two hundred per stick with a ten percent discount, accounting for the limit breaking need, a total of just five sticks were required.

ng Chuan spent quite so ti trying to find the Esoteric Sect body strengthening oil but found nothing, even after using several frequently used search terms, the mall displayed blank results.

Then he searched the entire internet again, still unable to find any place selling it.

ng Chuan thought for a while, and eventually, he left a ssage asking the fellow netizens under Professor Chen Yu’s course.

No one had replied yet, so ng Chuan put his phone down and went to sleep first.

...

The next day.

Ping’an Middle School Martial Arts Dojo.

Chen Tie slapped his palms on the back, and ng Chuan felt the pain was much reduced.

"Old Tie, use more strength!"

"Alright, see if I can’t beat you to death."

With more strength in Chen Tie’s hand, the familiar refreshing sensation assaulted once again.

Half an hour later, the two of them ended the passionate physical collision.

Chen Tie wiped his sweat, enviously said:

"You are truly a genius in horizontal training; you’ve only trained for a few days and already broken through Qi Nourishing Armor, right?"

ng Chuan nodded with a smile.

"Thanks to Teacher Chen’s good hitting."

"I have a bold idea, if I combine the Western..."

The two chatted casually, and ng Chuan told the other his thoughts from yesterday.

After listening, Chen Tie fell silent imdiately, and after a mont, he suspiciously said:

"It should... be possible, but unnecessary."

"Practicing that Iron Arm Skill won’t be much useful unless you train in more advanced hard skills, which provide deeper stimulation to the body, otherwise the effects of hard skills will overlap."

ng Chuan was not discouraged after listening. Instead, he felt happy.

[Doma Iron Arm] has even better effects, even if not, it’s okay.

What ng Chuan truly needs is its characteristic after limit breaking!

"By the way, Teacher Chen, do you know where to buy Esoteric Sect body strengthening oil?"

Since Chen Tie is also a hard skills enthusiast, maybe he knows where to buy this stuff.

Unexpectedly, Chen Tie waved his hand and said:

"How would I know? All I practice are passed down from our ancestors, I don’t learn that fancy stuff."
