71: Cheng Yurou's Body Tempering
Purple Bamboo Manor.
After spending a few days touring Dongfeng Town with Cheng Yurou and the others, Jiang Chen did not neglect his martial arts training.
Upon returning, Jiang Chen also used the Body Forging Azure Flame to refine some True Spirit Pills.
However, these Medicinal Pills were not put up for sale.
In a place like Dongfeng Town, where even a single Body Tempering Pill required a pre-order, suddenly producing a large quantity of second-grade Medicinal Pills would be useless, as they couldn't be sold.
During the Alchemy process, Jiang Chen also became familiar with and mastered the Body Forging Azure Flame.
Although Jiang Chen could now control the Body Forging Azure Flame with ease, using the Body Forging Azure Flame to perform Body Tempering for others still required caution.
Otherwise, a moment of carelessness could incinerate a person into ash.
Jiang Chen caught a chicken and conducted an experiment.
In the end, he successfully performed Body Tempering on the chicken.
Of course, the chicken still couldn't escape the fate of being stewed into soup.
“I should be able to start performing Body Tempering for them now.”
His Cultivation during these days had allowed Jiang Chen's Cultivation to reach the third layer of the Xiantian Realm.
It was imperative to improve the strength of Cheng Yurou and the others.
Moreover, it was highly likely that they would be heading to Cangzhou City next.
Since he had promised to work under Chu Yun, accumulating merits as soon as possible to elevate Chu Yun's status, and also to enhance Chu Yun's strength, living in Cangzhou City would be more convenient.
More opportunities naturally meant more dangers.
Jiang Chen also needed to further enhance his own strength.
That evening, Jiang Chen called Cheng Yurou into his Cultivation room.
Although Jiang Chen often didn't sleep in his own room, he did have his own room and Cultivation room.
Because Cheng Yurou knew that Jiang Chen also needed his own space, and without Jiang Chen's permission, no one was allowed to disturb him.
“Aren't you coming to my place tonight? Shi Shi is still waiting.”
Cheng Yurou was a little surprised.
“No need, today I need to help you with Body Tempering.”
“Body Tempering?”
Cheng Yurou's beautiful eyes widened instantly, and she looked at Jiang Chen with confusion.
Previously, when Jiang Chen taught them to Cultivate, he had never mentioned anything about Body Tempering.
Wasn't Cultivating equivalent to Body Tempering?
Cheng Yurou felt a bit confused.
But whatever Xiao Chen said, it was so.
As if seeing the confusion in Cheng Yurou's eyes, Jiang Chen smiled slightly.
“Although the process of your Cultivation can make your body tougher, it doesn't count as Body Tempering. A large portion of Impurities still remains within your body.”
“I will use the Spirit Fire I control to Refine your body. Don't be afraid, this fire won't harm you.”
As Jiang Chen spoke, he raised his hand and released a wisp of Body Forging Azure Flame.
As the Body Forging Azure Flame appeared before Cheng Yurou, her eyes immediately lit up.
“How magical!”
Cheng Yurou didn't know that Jiang Chen had mastered such a mysterious power.
“After Body Tempering, it's equivalent to removing the Impurities from your body. You will become much more powerful then.”
Jiang Chen said.
Cheng Yurou's eyes also held some anticipation.
Subsequently, under Jiang Chen's guidance, Cheng Yurou also sat cross-legged.
She was only wearing a thin robe.
Jiang Chen raised his hand and released the Body Forging Azure Flame.
When the Body Forging Azure Flame surged into Cheng Yurou's body, her brows furrowed slightly.
She seemed to feel a very intense pain.
This pain was not caused by Jiang Chen's Body Forging Azure Flame, but rather the effect produced by the continuous burning and removal of Impurities.
Cheng Yurou gritted her silver teeth.
She didn't utter a sound, but endured forcefully.
She knew that if Xiao Chen helped her with Body Tempering, the consumption would definitely be greater than her own.
Therefore, Cheng Yurou also had to persevere and not waste Xiao Chen's good intentions.
The Body Tempering process was relatively long.
This was also Jiang Chen's first time performing Body Tempering for another person with the Body Forging Azure Flame, and he needed to meticulously control the flame's movement within the body.
Fortunately, Jiang Chen's Comprehension Ability was extremely high.
When he truly unleashed the Body Forging Azure Flame, his mastery over it was rapidly increasing.
His proficiency in performing Body Tempering for Cheng Yurou also grew quickly.
For a moment, Cheng Yurou's body was sizzling, emitting a white, smoky aura.
In the early morning, Cheng Yurou woke up in Jiang Chen's arms.
She found that her body had become lighter.
Her entire skin condition had become firmer and more elastic.
“Xiao Chen… I…”
“Mm, Rou’er, your body has been Refined and become stronger.”
“Now, you should barely be considered to have just crossed the threshold of an Acquired Realm Body Cultivator.”
Jiang Chen said.
“Acquired Realm? Body Cultivator?”
“Am I very strong now?”
Cheng Yurou was not very clear about these concepts.
“You've just broken through, and your strength hasn't been fully integrated yet. After integration, you should be able to unleash a punch with three thousand catties of force.”
Jiang Chen said.
“Three thousand catties!”
Cheng Yurou's small mouth widened in astonishment.
Looking at Cheng Yurou's rosy lips, her skin was now even smoother after Body Tempering.
As for the Impurities on her body, they had long been incinerated to nothingness by the Body Forging Azure Flame.
Jiang Chen whispered a sentence into Cheng Yurou's ear.
Cheng Yurou's pretty face flushed, and then she nodded obediently.
“I… I’ll try…”
