128: The second career column is born

Black Gold Bone +1

After nearly three days, the first bone finally healed under the Black Water Bone Forging Method.

And, it was directly a Golden Bone level.

This made Chu Qing very happy.

After all, the first time he forged a bone, he forged a Golden Bone, and it was a special Black Gold Bone.

This was a good start.

A good omen.

With the birth of a Golden Bone, Chu Qing's strength visibly increased by a significant margin.

One Golden Bone is equivalent to five Golden Tendons.

If all his bones were forged into Black Gold Bones, then there would be special profoundness.

It's just a pity that neither the Black Water Bone Forging Method nor the Dean mentioned any detailed profoundness.

It was as if it was deliberately hidden, waiting for him to discover it himself.

Fortunately, Chu Qing didn't care too much.

At this moment, he carefully sensed the change in strength brought by a Black Gold Bone.

"No wonder all Aristocratic Descendants want to forge Golden Tendons."

"Other Martial Artists, forging one Iron Bone, is only equivalent to increasing five Iron Tendons."

"But I directly forged a Golden Bone, which is equivalent to fifty Iron Tendons."

"Even without the Secret Inheritance of tendon and bone enhancement, with the same Move, my power has increased by at least fifty times."

"Moreover, because of my Perfected Gold Tendons, my bone forging speed is ten, or even a hundred times that of other Martial Artists."

"As time goes on, the gap between me and ordinary Martial Artists will become wider and wider."

"Even in the Bone Forging Realm, other Martial Artists, even if they forge 365 Iron Bones, are not as good as my Perfected Gold Tendons; moreover, I have also started forging bones."

"The power of one of my Golden Bones is equivalent to ten of their Iron Bones."

At this moment, Chu Qing had a feeling: only now was he truly a Martial Artist.

Whoosh!

Chu Qing took a deep breath, exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi, and began to check his profession panel.

The initial profession panel only had one page.

Now, there was an extra page.

The description on the first page had changed:

[Chu Qing - Martial Artist]

[Realm - 365 Golden Tendons, 1 Black Gold Bone]

Below were various Perfection, breaking-limit martial arts, Secret Inheritance, weapon techniques, and so on.

Chu Qing was thoughtful.

"This page hasn't changed much, just the addition of the words 'Martial Artist'."

"So, what about the second page?"

He took a deep breath and touched the second page of the profession panel with his consciousness.

The next second, some information appeared out of thin air in his mind:

[You have unlocked the second profession panel!]

[The second profession panel has conceived several professions based on your experience, vision, etc. You can choose one yourself.]

[Once chosen, it cannot be changed.]

Chu Qing repeatedly checked and pondered the information.

Finally, he looked at the second profession panel:

[Your currently available professions are as follows:

1: Bare-handed Butcher - Fist and foot power increased.

2: Swordsman - Sword weapon power increased.

3: Alchemist - Alchemy success rate increased.

4: Archer - Bow and arrow power increased.

5: Actor - Five Viscera and Six Bowels Realm gains additional power... countless professions, dozens of them.

Finally, there was a line of information: [New profession being conceived, requires contact with Black Gold, dragon tendon...]

He was dazzled by the numerous professions.

So many professions seemed to boost his combat power.

And, he also found that these professions seemed to be ones he had seen or heard of.

Among the many professions, he valued Alchemist and Actor the most.

An Alchemist can refine Secret medicine.

Although he could forge a bone in less than three days now, he still lacked Secret medicine resources.

When the Golden Bone was born just now, he had a feeling that his body's foundation was depleted.

He needed some Secret medicine to nourish it.

Otherwise, the next bone would definitely not reach the Golden Bone level.

If he could become an Alchemist, he could refine Secret medicine himself and improve quickly.

As for Actor, it was the only profession among all that could increase the power of a certain Realm.

Professions like Swordsman, Blade Master, Spear Master, etc., increased the power of a certain weapon.

The Actor profession, however, enhanced the overall strength of the Five Viscera and Six Bowels Realm.

If a top Prodigy with top-tier Secret Inheritance and Perfected Five Viscera and Six Bowels were to fight him, he could use the Actor profession to forcefully surpass the opponent.

According to the Dean, in a fight between top experts, a slight difference is a world of difference.

Then, the Actor profession could make him two, or even three, lines above other top experts.

Both professions were very good.

Which one to abandon?

Which one to choose?

Chu Qing was conflicted.

After a long time, he first ruled out Alchemist.

Although this profession was good, alchemy took time.

"I don't even have enough time to Cultivate; if I divert my energy to alchemy, it will waste even more time."

"Secret medicine... I don't have it, but I can rely on the bounty of nature!"

Finally, he looked at the Actor profession.

This profession was also good.

But... he always felt something was missing.

At this moment, he saw the last line of information:

[New profession being conceived - requires contact with Black Gold, dragon tendon...]

His heart stirred.

"I've already touched Black Gold, and I've only heard of dragon tendon, never seen it."

"But, a new profession is appearing because of these two things."

"So, will the new profession be more powerful?"

"Should I wait for this profession?"

After a long time, he smiled:

"Really, why am I thinking so much?"

"For tendons, I've forged the best Golden Tendons!"

"For bones, I also want to forge the best Golden Bones!"

"For this second profession, I also want to choose the best."

It was obvious that the new profession being conceived, which required Black Gold, dragon tendon, etc., would definitely be more powerful.

So: wait!

Must wait!

This second profession had appeared, and the third profession, who knew when it would appear.

Therefore, the choice for the second profession must be made with extreme caution.

"The Dragon Snake Twin-Headed Chain Spear requires dragon tendon!"

"The top-tier Secret Inheritance Black Water Bone Forging Method also requires it!"

"Now, the second profession also requires it."

"It seems I must find a way to get a dragon tendon as soon as possible."

Tang Wuming of Eight Hundred Li Shui Po was organizing people to search for dragon tendons among the big fish.

Chu Qing felt that he couldn't just sit idly by.

He also needed to take action.

"I can have tens of thousands of refugees dig for pearls; I can also organize people to raise pigs, slaughter pigs, and search for dragon tendons!"

"However, before that, I still need to make Zheng Zhixiang completely admit defeat."

When negotiating with Zheng Zhixiang, although he was seriously injured by the Dean, he was very unyielding.

"That guy will definitely test me."

"And I will strike with thunderous force when he tests me."

For this, he specifically told the Wubao Lords that if they found any traces of the rebel army, they should contact him immediately.

Moreover, he also asked the Vice Dean to pay attention to the rebel army's movements.

No longer dwelling on the second profession issue, Chu Qing began to replenish his depleted foundation.

He swallowed all the bone-forging Secret medicine sent by the Fortified Manor.

He then lit the remaining dozens of golden incense sticks and swallowed the fragrant smoke.

Finally, he stood naked, allowing Zhao Hongxiu and others to apply nourishing ointment to him and Cultivate the Toad Skill.

Nourishing ointment was best for restoring the foundation.

The Toad Skill was best for restoring spirit, Qi, and vitality.

After a night of effort, the depletion from forging the Black Gold Bone was finally repaired.

And most of his accumulated resources were also depleted.

Fortunately, the first Black Gold Bone was born.

This Black Gold Bone, in addition to enhancing combat power, could also slowly repair the foundation.

Although the effect of one Black Gold Bone was weak, it was still an additional supplement.

"To quickly forge Black Gold Bones, I need more resources!"

"Once Zheng Zhixiang is suppressed, I will deal with the Wubao Lords!"

At this moment, the melon-faced maid brought news:

"Young Master, a rebel army of five to six thousand people is heading towards Shiji County."

Chu Qing took a deep breath and whispered:

"They're coming so fast?"

"It seems they are really eager to test me!"

He pondered for a moment and said, "Tell Cui Moyang and the others to bring their weapons."

The maid said sweetly, "Yes!"
