Chapter 11

It was not until it was time to light the lamp that Yang Kai stopped reluctantly. After such a long time of practicing fists and kicks, he not only didn’t feel tired at all, but was instead full of energy and had great stamina. Ever since he obtained the Proud Bone Golden Body, his physical strength seemed to have improved a lot. Today, he walked twenty miles without feeling tired, and carrying such a big bag of rice was as light as nothing.

I’m afraid only when practicing the Body Tempering Chapter will he really feel the pressure. Just thinking about the feeling of practicing the Body Tempering Chapter this morning, Yang Kai couldn’t help but shiver. The feeling of the pressure of heaven and earth on his body was very uncomfortable.

But there is progress only with pressure. Now that there is no pressure at all, how can one practice?

The potential of a person is all forced out, and this is especially true for the growth of a martial artist. Forcing one’s own potential step by step and surpassing one’s own limits little by little, only in this way can one’s strength be improved.

But now that he had punched and kicked so many times and didn’t feel the slightest bit tired, where was he close to his limit? How could he force out his potential?

This was really a difficult situation. Yang Kai was also a bit depressed. Obtaining the Proud Bone Golden Body was indeed a great blessing, but with its powerful recovery ability, the basic skills of the Lingxiao Pavilion could no longer be cultivated. Could it be that he could only cultivate for half an hour every day before sunrise from now on？

There were a full twelve hours in a day, and only half an hour was for cultivation. What should he do with the remaining time？ Sleep with his head covered？ This was absolutely not possible. Yang Kai vetoed this idea without even thinking.

While absentmindedly starting a fire to cook, Yang Kai was thinking about how to make himself feel pressure. If others knew about this, they would probably find it at a loss for words.

Other martial artists on the path of cultivation wished for it to be easier, but Yang Kai was now looking for abuse on his own.

After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn’t come up with a good solution. The main reason was that his current economic conditions couldn’t keep up. There were many pills that could assist in the cultivation of the Body Tempering Realm. Besides pills, there were also some other external force methods, but the root of all this was one word – money.

In the Lingxiao Pavilion, money meant contribution points. Poor Yang Kai only had twelve contribution points. He really had the intention but not the ability.

After cooking the meal, Yang Kai wolfed down a few bowls. There was no side dish, and he just ate it dryly like that, but Yang Kai was already very satisfied. This was the only full meal he had eaten in the past few days.

After the meal, Yang Kai didn’t go to cultivate either. He directly went to take a bath and then lay down on the bed. Continuing to cultivate would only be half the effort for twice the result. It would be better to think about a solution. After all, sharpening the knife doesn’t delay the woodcutting work.

While thinking, Yang Kai’s heart moved, and he summoned the wordless black book again.

Yang Kai had roughly figured out the tricks of this black book. Something was sealed in each page of the book, and as long as his strength reached the required level, he could summon it out.

The Proud Bone Golden Body obtained on the first page was the foundation and the root.

The second page was the Body Tempering Chapter, which was precisely the cultivation chapter for the Proud Bone Golden Body.

He didn’t know what was on the third page because when he peeked last night, he couldn’t see any situation at all. This was definitely related to his own strength.

Now that the first and second pages were empty, Yang Kai studied them carefully for a long time but found nothing. However, when he inadvertently turned to the third page, his eyes were in a trance for a while.

Hmm？ Yang Kai frowned and stared closely at the third page.

Almost instantly, golden light flickered on the third page, and countless golden shadows out directly jumping into Yang Kai’s mind. Immediately afterwards, a vortex slowly appeared on the surface of the third page and an ancient incense burner rose from the vortex.

This unexpected change made Yang Kai a little abated, but when he figured it out, he was overjoyed.

That’s right. Didn’t he break through to the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm this morning？ He couldn’t see the mystery of the third page last night, so why didn’t he try after the breakthrough today？

Although it was only a difference of one level, it was precisely this one level that hindered his path of snooping the third page.

After figuring this out, Yang Kai couldn’t help but feel a little regret. If he had checked it this morning, perhaps he wouldn’t have to bother thinking about it now.

Youdaoplaceholder0 the excitement in his heart, Yang Kai picked up the incense burner and carefully examined it.

This incense burner wasn’t very big.It looked like something used by ordinary people to burn incense. However, it was in a semi-closed state, with a lid on the mouth and several small holes on the lid. It was antique, but not outstanding. No matter where it was placed, it wouldn’t attract anyone’s attention.

Yang Kai gently sniffed it and found that this thing had no smell and wasn’t heavy in his hand.

What was this for？ Yang Kai couldn’t figure it out for a while, so he had to close his eyes and concentrate to check the information that had just poured into his mind.

After a short while, Yang Kai opened his eyes with a strange expression.

According to the information he had just obtained, this incense burner could actually assist him in his cultivation. However, the incense burner itself had no effect. Instead, some herbs needed to be added to it to burn a strange fragrance and this strange fragrance was the thing that could assist in cultivation.

For different realms, the herbs that need to be put into the incense burner are all different.

What made Yang Kai a little puzzled was that the herbs suitable for his realm turned out to be the Three-leaf Soul-remaining Flower and the Absolute-land Deadwood Grass.

As far as Yang Kai knew, the value of these two kinds of herbs was not high, only a little scarce, and they themselves also had a little toxicity. Although the toxicity was not great, if one inhaled the medicinal properties of these two kinds of herbs for a long time, it would also cause damage to people.

Could these two kinds of herbs really be helpful for his cultivation？

There must be these two kinds of herbs in the Contribution Hall. However, with the stingy character of Old Meng, the selling price would definitely not be cheap. Moreover, Yang Kai himself didn’t have many contribution points. Where could he go to squander them？

In this case, he could only find a way to look for these two kinds of herbs by himself. Fortunately, the Black Wind Mountain Range was not far from the Lingxiao Pavilion. Yang Kai had gone in and out many times to hunt and was quite familiar with it. Maybe there were herbs inside.

Enter the mountain tomorrow! Yang Kai made up his mind, and all his troubles dissipated. He soon fell asleep heavily. Before going to bed, Yang Kai also specially checked the fourth page of the Nameless Black Book to avoid the recurrence of today’s embarrassing thing. However, the fourth page showed no sign of movement. Probably the strength of the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm was not enough to spy.

The next day, Yang Kai got up very early.

He had gained such great benefits from cultivating the Body Tempering Chapter yesterday. Naturally, he wanted more. Moreover, he was not a lazy person himself.

Taking advantage of the purple qi coming from the east, the slow and profound fist and foot techniques of the Body Tempering Technique gradually unfolded.

Although his cultivation level was one level higher than yesterday, there was not much progress in using the Body Tempering Technique today. After half an hour he still stayed at the progress of one-twentieth. Instead, his body was tortured to the point of being a little sore and backache, and his bones cracked loudly, as dense as frying beans.

A mouthful of purple qi was inhaled, and the thin qi sensation in the body became clearer and more solid. The meridians seemed to have been widened a lot, and many acquired impurities oozed out on the surface of the skin.
