Immortal Martial Saint, starting with unlimited stat points

Looking at the figure outside the door, Zhou Chen ultimately decided not to tell Uncle Sun the news he had heard at the Li family residence at dawn that day.

Uncle Sun has only reached the Great Perfection of Skin Refining, and is still far from breaking through to the Flesh Refining Realm.

If the information is given, there are only two possibilities: either they will live in constant fear or they will prematurely expose the information and allow Li Xiong to take action.

"Bone Forging Realm".

Zhou Chen assumed the stance of the Zhenyue Pillar and entered a meditative state. The demonic beast flesh in his abdomen acted as a huge energy source, continuously strengthening the muscles throughout his body.

Martial artists who have cultivated the Zhenyue Stance to the second level of the Tiaoyuan Realm, whenever they assume a stance and practice breathing exercises, inhale to absorb the earth's essence and exhale to cleanse themselves of worldly dust.

Inside the courtyard, Zhou Chen's body rose and fell like a galloping horse, and the sound of blood surging could be faintly heard all around.

[Zhenyue Stake Progress +1]

[Precision +0.1]

【Fine: 4.2】

Late at night, Zhou Chen slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly opened his eyes.

On the panel, the countdown to entering the old world is almost zero.

"Hopefully, we can find a relic that allows us to break through to a higher realm today."

[Energy accumulated. Enter the old world?]

"Enter."

-----------------

Inside the Xuanbing Martial Arts Hall, Zhou Chen slowly opened his eyes.

The incense, map, and rattle drum in his bosom were all intact.

Zhou Chen took out the map, glanced at it, confirmed the direction of the Earth God Temple on the path leading to the Central Taoist Temple, and then pushed open the door and went out.

Along the way, his psychic abilities covered the surrounding area, but what he sensed were all in extremely distant places.

Zhou Chen was focused on getting on his way. After about half an hour, the surrounding buildings became increasingly low and dilapidated, as if he had entered a slum.

A low, cramped earth temple, barely tall enough for a person, came into view.

In front of the temple stands an ancient incense burner, and in front of it are three dirty cushions for people to worship.

The temple, which should have housed the venerable Earth God in the center, is now just a pile of dust, like the temple of the Howling Dog and the shrines in the courtyard.

Tread!

Zhou Chen took out some incense from his pocket, stepped forward, and inserted it into the incense burner of the local temple.

The moment the incense sticks were inserted into the burner, the tips ignited, and a wisp of sandalwood fragrance rose and gathered towards the central altar of the local earth god.

As the fragrant aroma drew near, the dust piled on the throne trembled slightly.

The incense on the burner seemed to be being absorbed by some unknown creature, and it burned faster and faster.

In the blink of an eye, most of it had burned.

Just then, a sudden gust of wind swept through the dilapidated streets and alleys, carrying with it the powder that had turned into the remains of the plague monster after its death.

Splash...

Countless roof tiles were blown off and shattered into pieces on the ground.

The incense on the burner burned out instantly.

bang...

The next moment, the old incense burner shattered, and the accumulated incense ash inside scattered all over the ground.

Zhou Chen covered his mouth and nose and stepped over the prayer mat.

The dust that had been trembling on the central throne has returned to calm. Unlike before, a jujube-colored memorial tablet has appeared around the temple.

"The position of Zhou Chen."

Zhou Chen's pupils contracted. As he read the words written on the memorial tablet, he could vaguely sense its location in his mind.

His expression was strange. He reached out and grabbed, but found nothing.

"Perhaps this is the secret to restoring my soul?"

Since he couldn't catch it, Zhou Chen stopped worrying about it.

Each time we enter the old world, the time is limited. Now, more than half of the time has passed. If we cannot find the breakthrough relic today, the plan to upgrade the Zhenyue Stake will have to be postponed.

He activated his spiritual tracking ability, and two strong auras of relics emanated from behind the temple.

Two!

Zhou Chen strode to the back and saw two gray-spotted plague monsters lying on the spot, their bodies convulsing.

Not far away, two warm white relics floated in mid-air.

"Could it be that the change was caused by the tremors of the local temple just now?" Zhou Chen stomped on the throats of the two convulsing monsters before putting the two warm white relics into his pocket.

[Obtained Breakthrough Relic (Beginner) *2]

[Relic: Breakthrough Relic (Beginner) *7]

"Seven breakthrough relics are enough to upgrade the Zhenyue Stake to the next level." Zhou Chen looked at the relic information displayed on the panel and felt excited.

Afterwards, Zhou Chen searched around the Earth God Temple again, but before he could find any other relics, white mist rose up, bringing him back to the real world.

【Zhenyue Stance (Mastery, 24%)】

"Consuming seven Breakthrough Relics to upgrade the Mountain Suppressing Pillar." Zhou Chen stood in the courtyard, his thoughts racing.

In the blink of an eye, a muffled thunderclap seemed to resound within Zhou Chen's body.

The lightning burst from the coccyx and traveled upwards along the spine.

Zhou Chen's twenty-four vertebrae were being forged one by one by an invisible hammer.

Gradually, a tingling sensation spread outward from the twenty-four vertebrae, as if every inch of bone was being forged by flames.

These calcined bones seemed to sprout invisible roots that burrowed deep into the muscles and skin.

Muscles and skin that have been tempered to their limits through rigorous muscle and skin training become stronger and more resilient.

Zhenyue Pillar, the third realm, tranquility of mind.

Once you've reached this level, when you're practicing standing meditation, the external world may seem chaotic, like clouds rolling and unrolling; your inner thoughts may rise and fall, like waves rising and falling.

Maintaining a centered mind is like a mirror; even if a hundred demons dance before you, the mirror's reflection remains unblemished. This is called a tranquil mind.

Aside from calming the mind and spirit, the biggest breakthrough in this realm is that it grants cultivators the ability to see inwards.

Once the tingling sensation in his body subsided, Zhou Chen's mind settled, and he suddenly looked inside.

All that could be seen were thick, robust blood vessels, with blood surging within them like a mighty river, flowing endlessly.

There are also tiny and weak blood vessels, through which blood flows throughout the body like a trickle.

"Arteries and capillaries?"

Before he could find the vein, Zhou Chen's gaze was drawn to the semi-transparent channel near the thick artery.

The passage was hidden among the flesh and blood, yet seemed to exist outside the body, empty inside, devoid of anything.

Meridians!

Two familiar words from his previous life flashed through Zhou Chen's mind.

"The meridians actually exist. Could the so-called 'qi' on the panel really be an internal force?"

Zhou Chen opened his eyes and slowly exhaled.

The breath condensed into a straight white line, shooting seven feet away and striking a withered branch hanging from an old tree in the courtyard.

With a "crack," the withered branch broke in two, the cut as clean as if it had been made with a knife.

Name: Zhou Chen

[Realm: Bone Forging Realm]

【23:23:42】

【Fine: 5.7】

[Qi: 0.0]

【God: 1.6】

[Supernatural Ability: Spirit Tracking (Beginner, 40%)]

【Skill: Zhenyue Stance (Minor Success, 5%)】

Archery (Mastery, 7%)

【Trap (Beginner, 12%)】

[None of the items]

The seven breakthrough relics successfully enabled the Zhenyue Stake to break through to the minor completion stage, and also resulted in a 5% increase in proficiency.

"The enhancement effect of the breakthrough relic has been halved again." Zhou Chen pondered for a moment, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted.

Therefore, to upgrade the Zhenyue Stake again, a total of sixteen low-level breakthrough relics would be needed.

The seven relics that were upgraded this time also allowed him to accumulate a lot of time.

"The Zhenyue Stake has been partially completed, and the spirit attribute has increased by 1.5. At the same time, I have also broken through to the Bone Forging Realm."

Looking at the changing realm and spirit attribute values ​​on the panel, Zhou Chen wasn't too surprised.

He had already discovered when he was practicing the Zhenyue Stance that his strength was not far from the perfection of the Body Refinement stage.

Although he was unaware of systematic cultivation knowledge, the burning sensation in his bones when he added points earlier made him realize that he had broken through his own realm.

Clenching his fingers tightly, his knuckles cracked.

Zhou Chen spread out his spiritual tracking ability and sensed the figure resembling a furnace in the distant courtyard, feeling a sense of relief.
