87: Chapter 87: Bone Hole
However, it would not be so easy for the Wealthy Gang to unify the Gangs of Linjiang Prefecture.
At least it would not pose a threat to him in the short term.
With his cheat-like cultivation speed, by the time that day truly arrived, he might have already stepped into the Organ Refining Realm.
Not to mention a mere Wang Quan, even if the leader of the Money Gang arrived in person, he would have the confidence to face him head-on.
The next moment.
A martial arts cultivation card appeared in Chen Hu's hand.
"Activate!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 100 days of cultivation!"
"Damn!"
Chen Hu almost exclaimed aloud. Having obtained the martial arts cultivation card for so long, this was the first time he had rolled 100 days of cultivation.
"Could it really be the good luck brought by taking down Saintess Luoyan?"
If that was the case, he would have to go there again tonight no matter what.
"Use!"
The next moment, a stream of internal Qi appeared out of thin air within his body, beginning to temper his skull.
Very quickly.
The remaining skull was tempered to completion.
And the Bone Refining Realm officially reached Perfection.
The next moment, Chen Hu felt his entire body enter a period of transformation.
And this transformation required the consumption of immense energy.
However, 100 days of cultivation only consumed a mere few days, and the remaining cultivation was sufficient to support the completion of the transformation.
Time passed.
In about half a quarter of an hour, Chen Hu's Physical Body completed its transformation.
The changes from this transformation were immense. First, his Dantian expanded directly by three times.
The toughness and width of his Meridians also greatly improved.
At the same time, his internal Qi became much more refined, though it had shrunk significantly in volume.
At this moment, the internal Qi that hadn't been consumed yet began to flow into his Dantian, but the quality of this internal Qi was not as good as his current internal Qi.
After all the cultivation merged, the internal Qi in his Dantian reached one-third capacity.
Then, Chen Hu activated the Great Sage Technique to mobilize his internal Qi for circulation.
After one cycle of circulation, the internal Qi returned to his Dantian, shrinking by half again.
After midnight tonight, once he drew martial arts cultivation again, he would be able to attempt a Breakthrough into the Marrow Refining Realm.
Suddenly.
The Heaven-Swallowing Vine in his heart sent a signal.
It had completely digested the nutrients and reached the Marrow Refining Realm.
In other words, after midnight tonight, he would possess two Marrow Refining Realm combatants.
He glanced at the enlightenment card inside his Storage Ring.
Without a Cultivation Technique or Martial Skill, he could only waste another opportunity for enlightenment.
Suddenly, a thought occurred to him.
Saintess Luoyan was a Saintess of the Holy Moon Sect; she should possess quite a few Xuan-grade or Di Grade Martial Skills, right?
He would ask her about it tonight.
Then, he took out the cultivation multiplier card and activated it.
He obtained a 50x Cultivate effect.
Chen Hu immediately took out a soul nourishing pill, swallowed it, and then activated the Spirit Refining Art to refine the medicinal power.
In the blink of an eye, one hour passed.
Chen Hu ceased his Cultivate.
"Claim cultivation results!"
The next moment, a stream of pure Soul Power was injected into his Divine Soul.
It quickly merged with his Divine Soul.
"Just a little more, and I will be able to reach the Late Stage of Condensed Truth!"
Chen Hu was secretly pleasantly surprised. It seemed that tonight, not only would his martial arts cultivation be able to Breakthrough to the Marrow Refining Realm, but even his Divine Soul cultivation would be able to reach a higher level.
"Go to the Slum Area and take a look to see if any new little brothers have delivered themselves to my doorstep!"
Very quickly.
Chen Hu arrived outside the courtyard in the Slum Area.
Seeing that there were only 12 children outside, he was a little disappointed.
After taking them into the courtyard and completing the process.
He gained 12 more little brothers.
The number of little brothers reached 762.
With a thought, the lottery interface appeared.
"System, use Elementary lottery!"
"Ding, Elementary lottery activated!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one ordinary food card. The prize has been distributed to the System space; please claim it yourself!"
The next moment, a card appeared in Chen Hu's hand.
Corresponding information also appeared in his mind.
"Sigh!"
Chen Hu sighed softly. Once the novice protection period passed, it became very difficult to draw extraordinary cards.
This ordinary food card allowed him to randomly claim between 100 jin and 10,000 jin of food every day.
"Activate!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 1,000 jin of flour!"
With a thought, Chen Hu transferred the 1,000 jin of flour into his Storage Ring.
He had already accumulated quite a lot of food inside his Storage Ring.
It just so happened that he was raising so many children.
This way, the food could be given to these children to eat.
Thinking of this.
He simply went to the stronghold on Yuquan Street.
Seeing him arrive, the little brothers all bowed respectfully.
"Boss, why are you here? Is there something you need me to do?" Da Niu asked.
"Help me rent an empty warehouse. Once it's rented, bring the key to the General Hall!" Chen Hu said, tossing 10 taels of silver to Da Niu.
"Alright, Boss!"
Da Niu was quite efficient in getting things done.
Around 2:00 PM, he delivered the warehouse key.
Chen Hu took the key and went to the warehouse.
He transferred all the food from his Storage Ring into the warehouse.
He planned to go to the Slum Area again tomorrow to give the key to Old Zhao so he could come and transport the grain.
Time arrived at evening.
Chen Hu had originally planned to go to Wanhua Pavilion.
Suddenly, he remembered that he had promised to teach Qianxue and Qianyu a Cultivation Technique tonight.
So he dismissed this idea.
After dinner.
Chen Hu called Widow Wang and the Qian sisters together.
He taught them the Longevity Technique.
As for the Cultivation Technique that Widow Wang had originally practiced, its grade was too low, so there was no need to practice it anymore.
However, by comparison, Widow Wang's talent was still a bit lacking.
After Chen Hu taught them three times, Qianxue and Qianyu were able to circulate their Qi on their own.
Widow Wang, however, had not grasped the essentials.
Fortunately, Chen Hu had good patience, and he began to give her extra tutoring.
After spending more than an hour, she finally mastered the method of circulating Qi.
And while he was teaching the three women, Liu Xianglan was full of envy.
"Xianglan, come here!"
Chen Hu beckoned to her.
"Brother Hu!"
The other party walked in front of Chen Hu and called out respectfully.
"I'll ask you, are you willing to stay at home as a maid, or go outside to work?"
Chen Hu looked at Liu Xianglan and asked.
If she was willing to go out and work, he would send her to the Slum Area to take care of the children; for Widow Wang's sake, he could give her a higher salary.
"Brother Hu, I want to stay and be a maid!"
Although Liu Xianglan had never read books, she was quite intelligent herself. Qianxue and Qianyu were also maids, but she had seen the treatment they enjoyed with her own eyes; she would have to be a fool to choose to go outside to work.
"Good. Since you have chosen to be a maid, you will have to stay in the manor for the rest of your life!" Chen Hu said in a serious tone.
"Brother Hu, I am still willing!"
Being a maid for Chen Hu meant she could eat things she had never eaten in her entire life, and she could also learn martial arts.
But if she went outside, as a farm girl from a poor background, at best she could only marry a man who was slightly better off.
This was not the life she wanted.
"Alright then. From now on, you will follow your sister to learn how to read and follow Qianxue or Qianyu to learn fist techniques!"
"Thank you, Brother Hu!"
Liu Xianglan was overjoyed.
In the blink of an eye, it was past midnight again.
Chen Hu somewhat excitedly took out the martial arts cultivation card.
"Activate!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 40 days of cultivation!"
Although it was not as much as the 100 days he had rolled during the day.
But 40 days of cultivation was enough for him to step into the Marrow Refining Realm.
The Marrow Refining Realm mainly involved tempering the bone marrow.
However, tempering the bone marrow was not done by directly tempering it with internal Qi, but by opening the Bone Apertures, injecting internal Qi into them, and using the energy of the Bone Apertures to temper the bone marrow.
Therefore, if one wanted to step into the Marrow Refining Realm, one had to first open the Bone Apertures.
