Cultivating Immortality: I Have a High-Martial World

Chapter 79 Advancement to Grand Martial Master, Acquired Immaculate Body!

Chapter 79 Advancement to Grand Martial Master, Innate Immaculate Body! (Please continue reading)

Lin Chen didn't investigate further.

After all, no matter how much his master tries to hide his abilities, he's still doing what's best for him.

"With two more high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills, perfect Foundation Establishment is just around the corner!"

"My cultivation is not far from reaching the perfection of Qi Refining... but before that, it seems I need to break through to a higher level in martial arts!"

Lin Chen glanced at the health and mana value on his wristwatch—298 points.

He was within reach of the 300 health points required to become a Grand Martial Master.

"Exactly one week has passed, and you can take another Marrow Cleansing Pill."

"Let's take this opportunity to challenge for the title of Grand Martial Master..."

He took out a Marrow Cleansing Pill and swallowed it.

Practice breathing techniques, breathing rhythmically throughout your body.

As the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill were gradually absorbed, Lin Chen also noticed the changes in himself.

Like the protagonist in a martial arts novel who has opened up his Ren and Du meridians, his eyesight has improved and his body has become much lighter.

At the same time, a layer of filth and grime seeped from his skin, emitting an unpleasant odor.

Since Lin Chen took the Marrow Cleansing Pill, his skin has been expelling impurities every so often.

But there have never been so many...

"This feeling... the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill have been fully activated!"

"Am I now the legendary Acquired Immaculate Body?"

Lin Chen was overjoyed.

Over the past six months, he has taken more than fifty pills of the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Only then did he finally complete the transformation of his physical constitution.

And almost the instant Lin Chen achieved the Innate Immaculate Body…

A breakthrough in martial arts realm also follows.

The bottleneck in martial arts between a martial arts master and a grand martial arts master can be a hurdle that can take a year or two to overcome, even for those with exceptional talent.

However, with the blessing of an immaculate body acquired later in life, there was no hindrance whatsoever.

Lin Chen seemed to hear a crisp sound as the shackles were broken!

With unprecedented strength and stamina, Lin Chen glanced at his health points—310!

Not only did he break through the bottleneck in martial arts, but his Qi and blood value also increased significantly.

With a whoosh, Lin Chen stood up and practiced two sets of martial arts techniques in the room.

After warming up his body, Lin Chen was quite amazed.

"This feeling of complete physical rejuvenation is probably not from a breakthrough in martial arts."

"What other benefits are there after acquiring an immaculate body?"

The first thing Lin Chen thought of was the absorption rate of consuming the flesh and blood of demonic beasts.

He took the Marrow Cleansing Pill multiple times, and his absorption rate of the flesh and blood of third-tier demon beasts was astonishingly high.

Consuming one or two ounces of demonic beast flesh and blood can increase one's health by a maximum of 26 points.

But now that we have an acquired, flawless body, wouldn't the absorption rate be even higher?

Thinking of this, Lin Chen stroked his chin thoughtfully and said:

"Tomorrow will mark one month since the last time I consumed the flesh and blood of a demon beast."

"Let's wait a day and see the effects of the monster's flesh and blood..."

After breaking through to the Great Martial Master level, Lin Chen strolled around the market for a while.

First, they purchased over a thousand medicinal herbs, and then bought over a thousand kilograms of cold iron stone.

Now, Lin Chen's shop is gradually becoming famous in the market.

Firstly, the pills he sells are of superior quality; although they are expensive, everyone who has used them says they are good.

Secondly, his title as the closed-door disciple of the Danfeng Peak Master also came in handy.

Therefore, as his business grew, Lin Chen's purchasing of more resources became less noticeable.

After finishing his shopping, Lin Chen didn't rush back to the shop, but instead went to the herb garden outside the market.

Not long after entering the medicinal herb garden, Lin Chen saw Huang Xin busy in the fields.

"Ah Xin!" Lin Chen called out.

Huang Xin smiled when he saw Lin Chen, then instructed his disciples to continue their work before quickly stepping forward to greet him.

Now, Lin Chen's herb garden covers nearly twenty acres, and about twenty outer disciples of Dan Peak have been recruited into it.

Almost every month, they could provide Lin Chen with hundreds of first-tier spiritual herbs.

"Senior Brother Lin, what brings you here today?" Huang Xin looked at Lin Chen with eyes full of admiration.

"Wow, long time no see... Your cultivation is almost at the third level of Qi Refining?"

Lin Chen praised him, then got down to business.

"Ah-Xin, remember when I told you I wanted to hire people to purchase cold iron stones? How many people have you hired yet?"

After listening, Huang Xin replied meticulously:

"Senior Brother Lin, there are probably more than thirty people, half of whom are outer disciples and the other half are independent cultivators from the market."

"More than thirty people?"

After listening, Lin Chen considered it for a while and concluded that mining the cold iron stone was not difficult.

There are plenty of cold iron stones around the cold pool in the Changchun Mountains. Thirty people can mine about two hundred catties a day without any problem.

But mining is hard work, and even thirty people can only earn ten spirit stones a day.

In addition, mining requires paying taxes to the sect and bribing officials at all levels...

If one were to profit from mining, one could earn less than a few dozen spirit stones a day.

But Lin Chen's only purpose was this cold iron stone.

Two hundred catties of cold iron stone a day, and nearly fifteen hundred catties a week.

In addition, Lin Chen also purchases some from other shops, so it's not difficult to produce an average of one ton per week.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen said:

"Then I'll leave the mining to you, Ah-Xin... You'll have to keep a close eye on this."

After listening, Huang Xin nodded seriously and said:

"Don't worry, Senior Brother Lin, without you, I, Huang Xin, wouldn't be where I am today... I will definitely carry out the task you assigned!"

Huang Xin did not ask why Lin Chen wanted to mine.

In his view, that was not something he should be considering. Although he was of ordinary talent, he knew respect for hierarchy and was grateful.

Lin Chen smiled with satisfaction and patted Huang Xin on the shoulder.

He felt very reassured leaving the matter to Huang Xin.

……

The next evening, Lin Chen sat cross-legged on the bed.

"More than ten hours until we return to Earth..."

"Before that, let's consume that piece of monster flesh and blood."

Lin Chen's heart stirred, and he obtained a small piece of demonic beast flesh.

The pale golden flesh emitted an enticing aroma.

After breaking through to the Great Martial Master level, Lin Chen's physical attributes became even stronger.

Therefore, he swallowed the piece of flesh completely in just two bites.

Afterwards, Lin Chen alternated between the pain brought by the flesh and blood of the demon beast and the comfort of his own increased strength.

It wasn't until late at night that Lin Chen absorbed all the energy from the demon beast's flesh and blood, feeling a surge of exhilaration throughout his body.

I glanced down at my health and mana – 340 points!

Just one piece of monster flesh and blood increased my health by thirty points.

This is equivalent to a month of arduous training for an ordinary grandmaster.

But Lin Chen frowned slightly.

"Compared to before, it only increased by four points of health? That shouldn't be the case..."

After thinking for a while, Lin Chen made a rough guess.

"A third-tier demonic beast is equivalent to a Martial Spirit level expert... its blood and qi value is not infinite."

"And my increase of thirty points in Qi and Blood... is not because the absorption rate of the Acquired Immaculate Body is poor, but because this piece of flesh can only provide a maximum of thirty points of Qi and Blood?"

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows, if his guess was correct.

This means that the acquired Immaculate Body has achieved a 100% absorption rate of the flesh and blood of a third-tier demon beast!

"However, this idea cannot be verified for the time being, as my current physique is far from being able to absorb the flesh and blood of a fourth-tier demon beast."

Lin Chen thought to himself.

However, an extra 60 points of Qi and Blood value per month is still quite remarkable.

After absorbing the flesh and blood of the demon beast, Lin Chen cultivated for several more hours.

Until an hour before returning to Earth, he took stock of the supplies he needed to bring back.

After confirming that nothing has been missed, wait quietly for the return time to reset to zero.

"Three, two, one..."

As the countdown reset, Lin Chen's gaze shifted.

……

The Great Xia Kingdom, Martial Arts Palace.

Time seemed to rewind to the moment before the time travel.

"I'm back……"

Lin Chen spoke slowly.
