From breaking the limits of archery to achieving martial arts godhood

After Lin Zhen and his group left, the elders of the Chen family immediately convened a general meeting of elders.

Besides the five elders, a group of martial artists also participated in the meeting, all of whom were at least at the Iron Skin Realm.

The Chen brothers, Chen Long and Chen Hu, participated in the meeting.

Seeing that there was nothing more for him to do, Chen Xun bid farewell and returned home.

Upon returning, Chen Xun immediately began boiling water to prepare a blood-nourishing medicinal soup.

"Sigh, why can't people just cultivate in peace?"

Chen Xun stood beside the kettle and sighed softly.

Judging from what happened today, it's not hard to guess that things won't be easy for Chenjia Village in the future.

Those Blood Hand Gang members are no pushovers.

We didn't collect the New Year's tribute from Chenjia Village today; who knows what kind of retaliation they might take later?

As Chen Xun pondered these matters, the kettle emitted a whistling sound.

The water has boiled.

Seeing this, Chen Xun took out a special ceramic bowl for making medicinal soup and began to make a blood-nourishing medicinal soup.

Before long, the turquoise blood-nourishing soup was ready.

The medicinal soup was placed on the table and quickly cooled down. Chen Xun drank it down in one gulp, savoring the faint aftertaste.

Then, a surge of heat erupted within Chen Xun's body, allowing him to quickly enter a meditative state.

Strands of qi and blood were rapidly condensed, strengthening Chen Xun's body.

As time passed, Chen Xun grew stronger little by little.

That evening, Chenjia Village increased its security measures, doubling the number of people patrolling the village.

The next day, an elder's decree was issued, ordering all boys over the age of thirteen in the village to enter Chenjiabao and begin learning martial arts.

Clearly, this move is intended to replenish the lost warriors as quickly as possible.

Many villagers, unaware of the true situation, happily sent their children to Chenjiabao.

We don't accept girls, only boys.

Because girls start menstruating around thirteen or fourteen years old, this physiological process causes them to lose some blood and vital energy each month, which undoubtedly slows down their cultivation speed.

In addition, girls are naturally much weaker than boys.

A man of the same level can take on two women.

Therefore, apart from the daughters of some important figures who had the opportunity to learn martial arts, the daughters of ordinary families in Chenjia Village did not have the opportunity to learn martial arts.

Chen Xun ignored the outside noise and continued to cultivate diligently.

Time flies, and another seven days have passed.

For the next seven days, no one came looking for Chen Xun, and he was happy to be free, spending almost all his time on cultivation.

I get up at five in the morning to start a fire and cook, while also practicing my "Bull Demon Mighty Fist".

Realizing that he might have to fight in close combat with others in the future, Chen Xun began to practice this set of boxing techniques diligently.

They're practicing fighting techniques.

If you practice your fighting style well, you can unleash all of Chen Xun's power with a single punch.

With Chen Xun's current strength of six or seven hundred jin, if he were to unleash it all and concentrate it into a single point, he could blow a person to pieces if he were to strike them.

Once the meal was ready, Chen Xun wolfed it down, wiped his mouth, and began to drink the blood-nourishing soup. He then assumed the stance for the [Bull Demon Stance Skill], ready to begin his practice.

This practice lasted for a whole day.

On average, Chen Xun needs to drink a bowl of blood-nourishing soup every three hours.

Drink three bowls during the day and one bowl at night, for a total of four bowls.

In other words, Chen Xun had to stand in the stance for more than 12 hours a day.

One bottle of blood-nourishing powder can make 10 bowls of blood-nourishing medicinal soup.

Therefore, Chen Xun used two and a half bottles of blood-nourishing powder in seven days.

Around 10 p.m., Chen Xun finished his standing meditation and began practicing the [Bull Demon Mighty Fist].

After practicing his boxing techniques for two hours, Chen Xun's mental state reached its limit.

Grabbing a damp, cold towel, I quickly wiped my body, lay down on the bed, and within three seconds, I was fast asleep, snoring loudly.

But by 5 a.m. the next day, Chen Xun was able to get up on time.

Even at this moment, the sky was still pitch black.

At this time, in the entire Chenjia Village, apart from the smoke rising from Chenjiabao, only Chen Xun's family was making smoke.

With such diligent training, Chen Xun naturally reaped great rewards.

First, there has been progress in stance training.

Since the completion of the skill, the progress of the [Bull Demon Stance Skill] has slowed down rapidly.

However, after Chen Xun took the blood-nourishing medicinal soup to aid his cultivation, he had enough energy to condense more than a hundred strands of qi and blood every day for strengthening his body.

Each time a burst of qi and blood is gathered, the proficiency of the stance training increases by one or two points.

It used to be 8 o'clock, now it's 10 o'clock.

However, as one's mastery of stance training increases, the increase in proficiency begins to decline significantly.

Fortunately, every minute of practicing stance training will improve one's proficiency.

This is the guarantee for improving the progress of stance training.

[Bull Demon Stance Skill (Perfect 46%)]

It can improve the progress by about 5 points per day.

Then comes the breathing technique.

The breathing technique has now officially reached its perfect state.

[Bull Demon Breathing Technique (Perfect 2%)]

Similar to stance training, the breathing method requires 200 repetitions to improve progress by one point.

Moreover, each wisp of qi and blood condensed only increases the proficiency of the breathing technique by one or two points.

Therefore, the progress has been significantly slowed down.

At the moment when the breathing technique reached perfection, another memory appeared in Chen Xun's mind.

Chen Xun once again transforms into the Bull Demon King and battles a group of monsters.

This time, however, Chen Xun frequently encountered situations where he was injured or exhausted. Whenever this happened, the Bull Demon that Chen Xun transformed into would use a breathing technique to prolong his stamina and speed up the healing of his injuries.

After his stamina recovered slightly and his injuries healed somewhat, he rejoined the battle.

Life goes on, the fight continues.

When Chen Xun regained consciousness, he discovered that practicing the breathing technique seemed to have increased his stamina.

Whether the recovery speed has been improved remains to be seen.

Then, the quality of the refined Qi and blood was improved once again.

Chen Xun compared the results and found that the quality had improved by 30%.

However, the volume of qi and blood has shrunk by half.

The high-quality Qi and blood allowed Chen Xun's body to absorb them with great eagerness.

The two were almost completely absorbed upon contact.

The faster the body absorbs qi and blood, the more time Chen Xun has to condense the power of qi and blood.

As a result, the blood-nourishing medicinal soup that could originally last for three hours can now only last for two and a half hours.

Furthermore, Chen Xun's stamina improved, allowing him to persist in cultivation for even longer periods.

This leads to a further acceleration in the consumption of blood-tonifying medicinal soup.

Of course, this also further increased Chen Xun's cultivation speed.

Besides stance training and breathing techniques, progress in the [Bull Demon Mighty Fist] is also rapid.

To master the Bull Demon's Mighty Fist at the proficient level, you need 50 experience points to advance even one point.

Each point of fist technique experience can only be gained by performing a complete set of fist techniques.

But Chen found a more effective way to increase experience points.

That is, when performing the [Bull Demon Mighty Fist], one enters the memory of the Bull Demon's battle in their mind and transforms into the Bull Demon to perform the [Bull Demon Mighty Fist].

In this way, it's as if you've activated a 5x experience card.

Chen Xun gains 5 points of fist technique experience after each set of fist techniques is performed.

Furthermore, when the breathing technique reached perfection, the [Bull Demon Mighty Fist] was once again like a blessing, instantly increasing the progress by 50%.

Thus, in just seven days, this set of boxing techniques reached the minor mastery level.

【Bull Demon's Mighty Fist (Minor Success 3%)】

Such a level of boxing skill is unparalleled in the entire Chenjia Village.

It should be noted that Chen Long, the strongest boxer in the entire Chen Family Village, has only mastered the [Bull Demon Mighty Fist] to a minor level.

It was this partially mastered [Bull Demon Mighty Fist] that allowed Chen Long to unleash the fighting prowess of the Chen family's number one fighter.

Xiao Cheng's [Bull Demon Mighty Fist] was already enough to make Chen Xun unleash his qi and blood.

Of course, to unleash the power of Qi and blood, one must also have Qi and blood available to use.

Therefore, it is necessary to accumulate some Qi and blood in the body in advance so that at critical moments, Qi and blood can be unleashed to enhance strength.

Since he had just entered the Lesser Completion stage, Chen Xun could only unleash his Qi and Blood once.

Chen Xun tried it once. After his qi and blood burst forth, they surged throughout his body, as if he had taken a stimulant. His strength increased greatly, his pain decreased, and his fighting spirit soared.

After the burst of energy and blood is exhausted, the body will feel weak.

Therefore, this burst of qi and blood should be used with caution.

With Chen Xun's current physique, each burst of power would require the consumption of ten strands of his vital energy.

This is also the limit that his body can currently withstand.

Finally, there's the progress of physical enhancement.

Both arms have been fully enhanced, possessing defensive capabilities comparable to ordinary rocks.

Ordinary swords and knives could not harm Chen Xun in the slightest.

His arms can generate a force of nearly 700 pounds.

Compared to ordinary Stone Skin Realm martial artists, they can unleash much stronger power.

If he were to combine this with a burst of Qi and Blood, Chen Xun would be fully capable of contending with a martial artist at the Iron Skin Realm.
