Chapter 54 Underwater Shelter

"If I work hard like this, I should be able to complete the first level of Body Tempering next month!"

Inside the bamboo house, Jiang Chen's eyes shone brightly.

For most body cultivators, it takes about six months to complete the first layer of copper skin.

The "Diamond Body Forging Technique" that Jiang Chen extracted from the essence blood of the Diamond Fish has a cultivation speed that is twice that of the ordinary body forging technique, which is about three months!

Jiang Chen's hands and right arm have now been tempered and turned into copper.

Another major advantage of cultivating the Vajra Body Forging Technique is that Jiang Chen does not need to dismantle the Arhat Body Forging Technique and start cultivating it again.

Based on the "Arhat Body Forging Technique", it can transform copper skin into gold skin!

This is the aspect of the "Diamond Body Forging Technique" that Jiang Chen is most satisfied with.

The body-strengthening skills of Flowerhorn fish and King Kong fish should be inherited from the same lineage, which is why they have such amazing effects.

Jiang Chen has already tempered part of the first level. If he works hard and puts in extra hours, he should be able to finish it within a month!

Once Jiang Chen completes the first stage of body tempering and achieves the Golden Skin Mastery, he can then begin to upgrade Xiao Jiu's bloodline level.

Yes, Jiang Chen has had Zhang Mingwan's Two-Tailed Fishing Cat essence blood for several days now, but he still hasn't dared to upgrade Xiao Jiu's bloodline.

He's afraid of dying...

After this period of extraction, Jiang Chen discovered that the stronger the extracted skill, the greater the physical cost!

The weaker the extracted skill, the less the physical cost.

The price to raise Xiao Jiu from a one-tailed fisherman to a two-tailed fisherman would probably be far greater than a few simple skills!

Jiang Chen has only extracted a few low-level skills, and he is already extremely weak, almost completely drained.

If we were to extract any more elite-level bloodlines, I'm afraid I'd be drained dry on the spot!

However, Jiang Chen found that extracting skills such as "Whale Breath Meditation", "Arhat Body Forging", and "Diamond Body Forging" did not require much energy or spirit; he only needed to rest for half a day or a day.

Jiang Chen thought about it and concluded that it was probably because these skills were not offensive or defensive, but rather auxiliary cultivation skills.

What is extracted is only a cultivation method; it cannot be used directly and requires additional effort to cultivate in order to achieve its effect. Therefore, it does not require a high price to pay.

However, when Xiao Jiu upgrades from a one-tailed fishing cat to a two-tailed fishing cat bloodline, all of its attributes will be improved, its skills will be more powerful, and a second tail will grow on its back, resulting in a surge in strength!

With such drastic changes, Jiang Chen felt it was best to wait until the first layer of "golden skin" was successfully refined before extracting it; that way, his life would be safer...

As thoughts raced through his mind, Jiang Chen stopped rambling and began cultivating the Vajra Body Forging Technique while keeping an eye on Xiao Jiu.

……

Time passed slowly, and the arrival of Super Typhoon Chanthu drew ever closer.

The sea breeze blowing towards the town grew stronger and stronger, and the white waves rose one after another, making the stilt houses tremble and become more and more violent.

On a large reef in Ningshui Town, at the Beast Taming Academy.

"Jiang Chen is still cultivating?" Zhao Zhonggang emerged from the underwater shelter and saw Jiang Chen still controlling his pet beast to weave and flash through the waves on the distant sea, practicing his skills. He was immediately taken aback.

Jiang Chen seemed to have been cultivating since morning until evening, without stopping at all except for a short rest at lunchtime.

Schools have been closed due to the approaching super typhoon.

The students cultivated freely without supervision, but Jiang Chen was very self-disciplined.

"Yes," Gao Hong, standing on the reef with white hair and beard, nodded and said, "I haven't seen him rest or have any fun in the past half month."

"Aside from classes and meals, he devoted almost all his time to cultivation!"

Gao Hong was both amused and exasperated as he said this: "This student is so easy to manage. I don't have to say a word or give him any instructions. It makes me, this old man, feel like I have no use for anything. I'm so bored!"

Zhao Zhong was speechless, but inwardly admired him.

As the vice principal, he also lived at the school. However, over the past two weeks, Jiang Chen's cultivation had far exceeded his expectations.

He had seen lazy students, and he had also seen diligent students.

But this was the first time he had ever seen someone like Jiang Chen, who devoted almost every moment of his day to cultivation, working so hard, almost like he was risking his life!

He also understood somewhat that there was a reason why Jiang Chen was able to make such a name for himself and his cultivation level soared.

With his diligent and hardworking personality, even without the talent for "dual cultivation" in beast taming, Jiang Chen will definitely be able to join the ranks of top beast tamers in the future!

God rewards hard work!

As the fireball in the west gradually disappeared below the horizon, the sky grew darker, and the surrounding sea turned pitch black.

"Jiang Chen, you're back!" Gao Hong shouted, his voice carrying with him spiritual energy and completely drowning out the sound of the surrounding waves.

Jiang Chen, who was riding Xiao Jiu in the distance, stood up and waved his arm in response.

As night fell, the wind and waves began to grow even more violent.

Wave after wave crashed violently against the rocks, creating a series of loud splashes. Xiao Jiu carried Jiang Chen safely back to the Beast Taming Academy in Ningshui Town.

When Xiao Jiu and Jiang Chen arrived, they saw that the school that had once stood on the large reef had been almost completely demolished, leaving only some bare stone pillars.

"Give me a hand, and while you're at it, move these water bamboos into the shelter," Gao Hong said, pointing to the bamboos that had already been removed from the rocks and were shimmering with a bright green luster.

"Okay." The relocation work is almost complete. The water bamboo here will be moved a few more times before it is all moved.

Jiang Chen nodded, and he and Xiao Jiu, along with the cat, each carried dozens of kilograms of water bamboo. They then followed Gao Hong into the turbulent sea and swam towards the shelter below the academy.

The sea was raging with wind and waves, but after Jiang Chen led Xiao Jiu to dive down dozens of meters, the sea immediately became calm and still. The contrast was striking, as if the wind and waves on the surface were an illusion.

The two people and the cat swam for a while longer, and a huge hole appeared on the seabed directly below the academy.

Inside the cave, beams of white light spewed out, shimmering in the seawater and appearing somewhat mystical.

The entrance to the cave is over ten meters wide and several meters high, resembling a gateway embedded in the seabed.

Jiang Chen and his two companions swam straight into the cave. The entrance was initially very narrow, only allowing a dozen or so people to pass through. After walking several dozen times, the cave suddenly opened up, and a new world slowly unfolded before them.

The entire underwater shelter is structured like a bottle, with the entrance being the bottle's opening. It's narrow inside, but after moving forward for a while, the interior opens up into a spacious area.

As soon as the three stepped inside, a cacophony of noise greeted them.

P.S.: During the new book period, we need to compare reading data, so please don't let the book sit idle. Remember to open Qidian every day and read it!

Thank you "断绝千殇" for the 100 Qidian coins!
