32: The realm of refining the internal organs is complete, patrolling the streets

Chen Cuo, with a burst of effort, completed the tempering of all his bones.

Through the perception from his Soul, he could clearly feel that all his bones had turned into iron, which was the Iron Bone Realm.

Old Master Fan once said that the ultimate effect of the Bone Refining Realm was to refine bones into marrow, capable of tempering out iron bones, and there were even exceptionally talented individuals who tempered out gold bones, silver bones, or jade bones.

However, that required the assistance of Heaven And Earth Treasure, which Chen Cuo did not have.

Moreover, tempering out gold bones or silver bones might not necessarily be better than iron bones; what suited him was the best.

Chen Cuo's goal was to Cultivate his Physical Body to the Realm of an Undying Golden Body, and iron bones were more suitable.

Furthermore, in Chen Cuo's perception, the iron bones he had Cultivated were a convergence of various essential Cultivation Techniques, likely extraordinary.

His overall physical quality, including reaction speed and strength, significantly improved, and the progress of his other Cultivation Techniques also rapidly climbed a large step.

Shadow Shifting was immediately nearing Perfection and could Awaken a talent.

Speaking of Awakening talents, he hadn't checked his Fate Points information for many days.

The North Dipper Gang undergoing such a major upheaval could be said to have a significant connection to him, and the Fate Points he could obtain were probably not low.

Fate Points: 68 → 235

At this moment, Chen Cuo opened the panel, filtered out the extra information, and found the message he wanted.

He discovered that the small squares at the bottom of the panel had 2 squares displaying purple-gold, and the other 35 were light gold.

One purple-gold square represented one hundred Fate Points.

The increase in Fate Points was completely sufficient for Chen Cuo at present.

Chen Cuo settled his mind and continued to immerse himself in Cultivation.

Another week passed, and on this night, the bright moon hung high.

"Spirited Monkey Art Boxing!"

"White Crane Spreads Wings!"

"Tiger Roars in All Directions!"

Just in the backyard, Chen Cuo changed his form, sometimes like a cunning snake, sometimes like an immortal crane, sometimes leisurely stretching, sometimes full of killing intent.

Inside, a surge of Qi rolled up and down, finally reaching a critical point at a certain moment.

A burst of Qi shot out, piercing through the trunk of a large tree with a 'duo' sound, leaving a hole.

"Qi externalization, the mark of the Lian Zang Realm."

Accompanying the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest, Chen Cuo's internal organs made a gurgling sound, like the water tank of a mill, continuously rolling.

With a single whale-like gulp, the surrounding air transformed into a long rainbow and was sucked into his abdomen.

Breathing in like a rainbow, exhaling like an arrow, Lian Zang Realm achieved!

Chen Cuo came before the moved stone pier, lifted it with a single hand, rolled it continuously on his back, strenuously lifted it above his head, and tossed it into the air, easily catching it when it fell.

His strength, he feared, was already approaching fifteen thousand catties.

Precisely because of this, Chen Cuo felt the System was increasingly miraculous and unreasonable.

The "Invincible Iron Palm" talent, though simple in effect, was incredibly astonishing.

As his strength grew, he could now unleash the power of three elephants with a single palm.

Under the Acquired Realm, he wondered who could withstand a single palm strike from him.

"Shadow Shifting proficiency +45, (5000/5000), Perfection."

[Do you want to Awaken the talent of Shadow Shifting?]

Did he need to hesitate? Of course not.

Chen Cuo's Soul touched the interface and lightly tapped.

[Congratulations, Host, you have Awakened the talent "Phantom Flash."]

[Phantom Flash: Activate the power of the talent to instantly move a certain distance and generate a difficult-to-distinguish phantom Clone at the original spot.

The teleportation distance is determined by your Cultivation.]

Fate Points: 235 → 228

It actually consumed 7 Fate Points; the Awakened talent was truly extraordinary.

This talent was a good means of escape.

Chen Cuo's figure flickered, silently teleporting for about a hundred meters, while the phantom generated at the original spot was lifelike, as if he himself was still standing in the previous spot.

"This is truly terrifying! What a powerful talent!

It has endless wonderful uses for ambushing people or escaping, hahahaha!"

Chen Cuo was overjoyed and excitedly opened his attribute panel.

[Chen Cuo]

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Age: 22 / ∞

Cultivation: Lian Zang Realm

Skills: Six Harmonies Saber (Body and Saber as One), Badao Technique (Body and Sheath), Shadow Shifting (Phantom Flash)… Liu's Brewing Recipe (221/500), Incense Making Skill (80/100)

Fate Points: 228

Now that Chen Cuo's Cultivation had reached the Lian Zang Realm, his Qi could be externalized, and his strength was incomparably formidable.

Even the Old Master at his peak might not be his opponent.

If he faced Sparrowhawk or Bei Tong, a single palm strike could directly kill them.

His strength grew rapidly, but he didn't know whether he was stronger or weaker than a Martial Artist in the Acquired Realm.

The Great Boundless Ocean Skill had progressed steadily since he comprehended the 疊浪法 (Wave Stacking Method) to simulate tides, but it had recently hit a Bottleneck, still because external conditions were not met.

On the other hand, the Seven-Colored Treasure Bottle True Force had progressed rapidly, already reaching Major Achievement, and might reach Perfection in another month or two.

The Mountain Moving Skill truly lived up to its reputation as an immortal's Cultivation Technique; its progress was indeed slow.

Even with the System, the further he Cultivated, the longer the time he spent each day.

Although the proficiency increased significantly, compared to other Cultivation Techniques, it was truly like a turtle crawling!

"Perhaps I should go to Old Master's place and move that medium-sized stone pier over; this smallest one is gradually becoming insufficient!"

After some thought, Chen Cuo immediately took action, calling his subordinate to accompany him, and visited the few streets under his jurisdiction.

After the joint rectification by the government and the Vajra Sect, the order in Wei City had completely stabilized.

Shops reopened, damaged buildings were being repaired, and prosperity returned to the entire city, though no one cared how many corpses and blood were buried behind this prosperity.

After Chen Cuo was promoted to Big Boss, Gu Pang, Ding Xiang, and Hong Feng also rose in rank, becoming Little Bosses.

Besides Sparrowhawk's Huanyi Street, Ji Ang's Hei Shui Street also came under Chen Cuo's control, adding to his original three streets, totaling five streets.

And Chen Cuo liked to be a hands-off boss, so he promoted a gang member who had performed meritorious service defending the Changshun Street branch at that time to Little Boss.

That person's name was Luo Ping'an, a brave man.

Now, Ding Xiang managed Changshun Street under him, Luo Ping'an oversaw Hei Shui Street, Hong Feng managed Huanyi Street, Gu Pang handled two streets, Qingshui Street and Jingshui Street, while he himself focused on Cultivation.

Sitting in the carriage, Chen Cuo looked at the surrounding shops and nodded with satisfaction.

The city's public order had finally returned to normal, and his business could continue.

Bringing the carriage to a pavilion, Chen Cuo suddenly called out, "Stop!"

Then he strode towards the tall, noble pavilion.

The plaque on the pavilion read 'Qingyin Fang'.

It was indeed a wonderful place, worth a visit!
