29: Secondary Body Refining

Xiao Shi did not check carefully at the time, but he remembered that the item dropped after the Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level expert died was a pitch-black Jade Slip.

As he took out the Jade Slip.

Relevant information immediately appeared in his vision.

[Name: Nine Refinements Vajra Body (Heaven Rank)]

[Type: Body Refining Cultivation Technique]

[Grade: Qi Warrior Grade]

[Introduction: The foremost of the three great Body Refining Cultivation Techniques in the Star Fiend Territory; when cultivated to Major Achievement, one can form an Invincible Vajra Body.]

[Remark: The requirements for Cultivate are extremely harsh; those capable of Cultivate are as rare as phoenix feathers, one in ten thousand.]

...

It was actually a Body Refining Cultivation Technique!!

And it was a Heaven Rank Body Refining Cultivation Technique of the Qi Warrior Grade!!

Xiao Shi felt a burst of wild joy in his heart.

Body Refining Cultivation Techniques were even rarer and more precious than Heaven And Earth Treasures.

The reason why Martial Artist who could perform Body Refining were so rare.

Heaven And Earth Treasures were only one aspect.

The greater issue was the lack of Body Refining Cultivation Techniques.

Usually, even a Yellow Rank Body Refining Cultivation Technique was enough to make people go crazy with desire.

A Heaven Rank Body Refining Cultivation Technique...

Its value was truly unimaginable!

Of course.

Body Refining Cultivation Techniques were not needed in the Entering Martial Realm, but to break through the Physical Body to the level of the Qi Martial Realm, one must have a suitable Body Refining Cultivation Technique.

In other words.

Even the lowest level Body Refining Cultivation Technique was of the Qi Warrior Grade.

There was no such thing as an Entering Martial Rank Body Refining Cultivation Technique.

If there hadn't been a drop from a higher rank, Xiao Shi would only have had a chance to obtain a Body Refining Cultivation Technique through killing after reaching the Qi Martial Realm.

He didn't expect that this first kill of an Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level Martial Artist would successfully drop a Qi Warrior Grade item.

And it happened to be a Body Refining Cultivation Technique!

"As expected, it is only by killing powerful Martial Warrior of the Entrance to Martial Realm that it is easier to drop higher-grade items!"

Xiao Shi was very excited about this.

Although he had not yet reached the level to Cultivate this Body Refining Cultivation Technique, in his joy, he couldn't wait to check the specific cultivation details of this technique first.

Holding the Jade Slip, he discovered that opening this Jade Slip was very different from ordinary ones.

This Jade Slip required blood to be opened.

Xiao Shi immediately used the soaring sword grass from before to cut his finger and dripped his blood onto the Jade Slip.

The black Jade Slip quickly absorbed his blood.

After a flash of light.

It only revealed a small amount of information.

"Is it using my blood to judge my Physical Body strength, and sensing that my Physical Body strength is insufficient, so it didn't reveal all the information?"

Xiao Shi was thoughtful about this.

Although the information he could see was limited, he had gained quite a bit from what was visible.

According to the information displayed by this Body Refining Cultivation Technique.

One could perform Body Refining a total of nine times in the Entering Martial Realm.

Every time one successfully performed Body Refining three times, some additional changes and improvements would occur.

To Cultivate the Nine Refinements Vajra Body technique, one must first perform Body Refining nine times.

This was a prerequisite for Cultivate this technique.

At the same time, only after completing nine times of Body Refining could one see the subsequent content of the technique.

"As expected of a Heaven Rank technique, the requirements are indeed very high!"

Xiao Shi sighed in his heart.

For the vast majority of people, being able to perform Body Refining once was already quite good...

Nine times of Body Refining?

That was simply wishful thinking!

After all, Heaven And Earth Treasures themselves were extremely rare.

Nine times of Body Refining would require at least nine types of Heaven And Earth Treasures!

Given the rarity and preciousness of Heaven And Earth Treasures...

Even a Sect like the Red Tiger Sect could not possibly produce so many Heaven And Earth Treasures.

Often, being able to obtain one Heaven And Earth Treasure would be considered a treasure of the Sect.

To obtain nine types of Heaven And Earth Treasures was definitely impossible in the Seven Stars Province.

However, for Xiao Shi...

Although it was difficult, it was not impossible!

At least he had already obtained two Heaven And Earth Treasures through consecutive kills.

As long as he kept killing powerful Entering Martial Realm experts, there would be hope of dropping Heaven And Earth Treasures.

And judging by the drop rate.

The probability of dropping Heaven And Earth Treasures didn't seem too low.

Of course.

This required him to kill Martial Warrior of the Entrance to Martial Realm with a certain level of strength.

If he only killed Martial Artist at the Entering Martial Realm Third or Fourth Level, he would probably need to kill many before one dropped.

"Nine times of Body Refining!"

Xiao Shi took a deep breath.

This would be his goal from now on!

He would do his utmost to drop more Heaven And Earth Treasures through killing.

"Then for now, let's proceed with the second Body Refining."

Xiao Shi looked at the long bottle to the side.

Inside the bottle was the Heaven And Earth Treasure that dropped this time, the Dusheng Heavenly Water.

He immediately followed the same Body Refining method as last time.

He first drank the Dusheng Heavenly Water in the bottle.

As soon as it entered his stomach.

A biting cold spread throughout Xiao Shi's body from within.

Amidst this freezing cold, Xiao Shi felt a needle-like pain in every part of his body.

Following that, his legs, arms, shoulders, and back all began to bulge with muscle.

But after bulging to a certain point, it stopped.

Then, like flowing water, it wriggled towards the inside of his body.

His entire swollen physique began to shrink rapidly.

His body became increasingly solid and heavy.

His flesh, bones, and internal organs made sounds like mud being stirred; that was his flesh, bones, and internal organs constantly increasing in density.

The entire Body Refining process was as painful as ever.

But this was the necessary process of Body Refining and a huge test of willpower.

Xiao Shi could clearly feel that amidst the pain, his body was rapidly improving, and the power contained in every piece of flesh was becoming more astonishing and violent.

His Qi and blood increased significantly.

Subsequently, it underwent high-density concentration.

Causing the fluctuations of his concentrated Qi and blood to rise directly from the Entering Martial Realm Fourth Level to the Entrance to Martial Realm Fifth Level.

And once it erupted!

His Qi and blood would be comparable to the Entering Martial Realm Eighth Level!

An hour later.

The Body Refining finally ended.

After the last Body Refining was successful, the flame pattern that appeared on his brow appeared again.

It was just that there were some changes this time.

But it was immediately hidden by Xiao Shi.

This kind of high-profile Body Refining mark...

He didn't need it.

Hah!

Xiao Shi stood up.

During the first Body Refining, due to the concentration of flesh and tendons, his physique became thin and small.

Originally, he was a bit worried that if this happened every time he performed Body Refining, after nine times, he might turn into a dwarf...

Fortunately, his physique did not shrink every time he performed Body Refining.

This time, this situation did not occur.

Not only did it not shrink, but his physique became even more lean and strong than before, at least it didn't look thin and small anymore.

Xiao Shi clenched his fists.

He felt the improvement after Body Refining.

In addition to the improvement in strength and Qi and blood, his Physical Body defense had also reached another height.

With his current Physical Body, even if he were to suffer another full-force blow from that Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level Martial Artist from before, although he would still be injured, he would definitely not be beaten to the point where his chest collapsed and his sternum shattered.

It was just that there was still a significant gap between him and the Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level experts.

However, Xiao Shi felt that as long as he completed the eighth cycle of the Crimson Tiger Art next, and thus stepped into the Entering Martial Realm Eighth Level, this gap would narrow again!
