49. Limit Of Body Refining
Ten Blood-Increasing Pills were swallowed into his stomach, transforming into a warm current that quickly flowed throughout his body.
Simultaneously, the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique automatically activated, causing Lin Fei's blood and energy to surge continuously inside him.
He could clearly sense that his blood and qi had reached a limit, as if a barrier was pressing down on them, preventing them from increasing any further.
This was the limit of his blood and energy, the limit of his Body Refining. Once a martial artist reached the limit of Body Refining, their inner power would emerge.
"Body Refining limit, inner power is born..." Lin Fei muttered softly. He was feeling the situation inside his body carefully. As his blood and qi continued to surge, he gradually felt a slight warm current appearing inside him. This warm current was like a mist, barely perceptible, but undoubtedly real.
"Inner power!" Lin Fei suddenly realized.
With a slight movement of his mind, his eyes opened, and he extended his hand. In the next moment, a trace of inner power gathered in his palm.
He lightly pressed his hand against the ground, and there was a soft sound as the ground trembled. Lin Fei widened his eyes. His palm seemed to have sunk into a piece of bean curd, leaving a clear palm print on the ground.
"inner power, it really is inner power! But... why is this inner power so terrifying?"
Lin Fei's heart trembled slightly. His inner power was really terrifying.
He had encountered acquired martial artists before and even killed two.
One was the Wind Chasing Fragrance, whom he had killed in Yi Mountian Mansion City. The other was Zhao Yihu, whom he had killed not long ago in Luo City. Both of them were acquired martial artists with inner power.
Lin Fei had also collided head-on with their inner power. However, compared to the trace of inner power he had just produced, their inner power seemed too weak.
"Pff!"
Lin Fei increased his strength. The trace of inner power that had just been generated in his body was instantly depleted. However, a clear handprint appeared on the ground.
"There should also be differences between different types of inner power. The stronger the Body Refining technique, the harder it is to produce inner power. But once inner power is generated, it's stronger than others!"
A glint flashed in Lin Fei's eyes.
He already had a general idea of why his inner power, although small in quantity, was much more powerful than the inner power of the Wind Chasing Fragrance and Zhao Yihu.
The difference lay in the Body Refining martial arts.
Whether it was the Wind Chasing Fragrance or Zhao Yihu, they were all lone martial artists
What kind of Body Refining martial arts could they get? Just very ordinary martial arts.
Therefore, the inner power they produced was naturally very ordinary.
But Lin Fei was different. He had been practicing the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique all along.
Even among all the Body Refining martial arts in the Nine Profound Sect, it belonged to a rather powerful type.
It was precise because of this that Lin Fei had found it so difficult to practice before.
But once inner power was born, it was not something that could be compared to the Wind Chasing Fragrance or Zhao Yihu.
"System."
Lin Fei immediately called up the system panel to check his martial arts situation.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Arts Realm: Acquired Realm
Giant Whale Body Refining Technique: Limit (Unable to improve)
Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist: Perfection (0% Progress)
Nine Shadow Saber Technique: Perfection (Progress 18%)
Vajra Iron Cloth: Ninth Level (95% Progress)
Tendon Transformation and Bone Forging Technique: Seventh Level (68% Progress)
Flowing Clothes Skill: Transcendence (0% Progress)
The first thing Lin Fei saw was the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique.
Sure enough, it had reached its limit. Even the cultivation progress was not displayed, but instead showed "unable to improve."
This was the limit of the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique.
Once inner power was born, the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique would be almost at its end.
Martial arts also had limits. It cannot be infinitely improved.
However, Lin Fei's realm had already reached the Acquired.
In other words, from the moment he was born with inner power, he was no longer a Body Refining martial artist but an Acquired!
Lin Fei rested for a while. His inner power slowly recovered bit by bit. However, he only had a little inner power, which was not much.
Moreover, at the moment, Lin Fei could only rely on his huge blood and qi automatically generate inner power. Therefore, the increase in inner power was very slow.
He needed martial arts in the Acquired realm.
Lin Fei had two Acquired martial arts. They were obtained from the Wind Chasing Fragrance and Zhao Yihu.
However, Lin Fei did not want to practice these two martial arts. Because they were too ordinary.
He could receive three Acquired martial arts for free at the Nine Profound Sect.
However, Lin Fei would not choose to rush to practice Acquired martial arts at the moment.
"Acquired martial artists rely on inner power. The stronger the inner power, the stronger the Acquired martial artists' strength.
To make inner power strong enough, the foundation of martial arts must be strong enough.
Otherwise, even if the same Acquired martial arts are cultivated in the same realm, the difference in inner power will be huge, and the strength will naturally be vastly different.
So, I still need to wait. Wait until the Vajra Iron Cloth gives birth to inner power, and even wait for the Tendon Transformation and Bone Forging Technique to give birth to inner power.
At that time, the three inner powers will merge into an unparalleled huge inner power. With this inner power as a foundation, practicing Acquired martial arts will be twice the result with half the effort!"
Lin Fei's eyes shone with brilliance. He had a plan in his mind.
50. Second Inner Power
Zhou Mountain Mansion City.
Wang Xuan blushed. In front of her were two young men dressed as martial artists.
"Junior Sister Xuan, you said your father almost betrothed you to someone else?"
One of the young men, who held a long sword, seemed arrogant.
"Senior Brother Liu Hao, my father didn't know about me and Senior Brother before...I have already explained everything to him. That man is just a nobody in Zhou Mountain Mansion City, how can he compare to Senior Brother? Besides, my father has agreed to our relationship."
Wang Xuan seemed afraid that Liu Hao would misunderstand, so she explained the whole story.
"Junior Sister Xuan, you don't have to worry. You are also a disciple of our Autumn Haze Mountain's inner sect. How can someone from Zhou Mountain Mansion City be compared to you? Can he match up with you? I heard that he is a disciple of Nine Profound Sect's inner sect?"
Liu Hao obviously knew something about it.
Wang Xuan knew that Liu Hao was proud. Even though this matter had nothing to do with Lin Fei. But since he knew, Liu Hao must have felt uncomfortable.
He might even go looking for trouble with Lin Fei. Wang Xuan didn't want to stir up trouble.
So she took the initiative to hold Liu Hao's hand and said, "Senior Brother, Lin Fei is just a Body Refining martial artist. He has only just been promoted to the inner sect of the Nine Profound Sect after three years. He is nothing compared to you.
Senior Brother doesn't need to bother with such an ordinary person and a trivial matter. Isn't Senior Brother Chen Yuan gonna Luo City for something? Senior Brother Chen Yuan's matter is more important."
The other martial artist, also an inner sect disciple of Autumn Haze Mountain, was Chen Yuan.
At this time, he also smiled and said, "Senior Brother Liu Hao, Junior Sister is right. How can a mere Body Refining martial artist be worth your attention? Lin Fei is just an ant on the ground, and he will probably only be a Body Refining martial artist for the rest of his life.
But Senior Brother is a divine dragon in the sky, destined to become an innate expert and dominate the world! How can someone like Lin Fei deserve Senior Brother's attention?"
Liu Hao glanced at Chen Yuan and Wang Xuan.
He couldn't help but smile, "Right, Junior Sister Xuan is right. A mere Lin Fei, still a Body Refining martial artist, is indeed not worth our attention. Okay, let's go say goodbye to the uncle first, then accompany Junior Brother Chen Yuan to Luo City, take care of his matter, and then return to the sect."
"Haha, I am also gonna investigate why the Zhang family suddenly withdrew their patronage for me. It's just a small matter that can be solved in Luo City. It's an honor to have the company of senior brother."
"Anyway, it's on the way. Moreover, Junior Brother Chen Yuan just broke through to acquire, and your inner power is unstable. If you encounter any small problems in Luo City, I will take care of them for you."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Liu Hao!"
So Wang Xuan, Liu Hao, and Chen Yuan said goodbye to the prefect and quickly left Zhou Mountain Mansion City towards Luo City.
...
Lin Fei sat cross-legged in the room, his whole body covered in the golden light snake blood. His skin turned red, and he felt a tingling sensation, but he remained unmoved.
He was used to it by now. He had just reached the limit of the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique yesterday, and he was about to develop inner power today.
And now, his Vajra Iron Cloth also almost reached its limit, which was about to give birth to inner power! When the two inner powers merged, what kind of power would they bring? Lin Fei was not sure.
Today was crucial for him, and he ordered the servants in the Lin mansion not to disturb him at this time.
As time passed, the effect of the golden light snake blood on Lin Fei's body gradually weakened, but he felt that his Vajra Iron Cloth was still a little short of reaching its body refining limit.
However, Lin Fei was not worried because he had prepared a lot of golden light snake blood. So he applied a large amount of it again.
Lin Fei's skin had become somewhat black and even a bit rough to the touch. After all, it was training the skin to become tougher than cowhide.
Suddenly, Lin Fei's skin began to vibrate slightly, and there seemed to ripple appearing on his slightly black skin, like the ripples on water. Then, the tough skin began to crack with a "crackle."
Lin Fei opened his eyes wide and grabbed the skin on his hand and tore it apart with a "chirp." There was no blood or pain. After the old skin cracked open, a new layer of skin was revealed, which looked very fair and tender.
Lin Fei seemed to have been "reborn" and transformed like a completely different person. Looked like a handsome young gentleman from a distance.
However, these details were inconsequential. What mattered was the new layer of skin on his body.
Lin Fei felt as if an invisible force was covering his entire body, and it was tingling with a slight burning sensation.
"The inner power produced by the skin membrane! The Vajra Iron Cloth has finally reached its limit!"
A flash of enlightenment crossed Lin Fei's mind.
