Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

Chapter 397: Chapter 262: Thousand Hammerings and Hundred Tempering, Power Enhanced! (Ask for monthly passes, ask for subscriptions!) _2
These three hammerings allowed him to skip over countless attempts, instantly gaining full mastery of the art of tempering.

From now on, even without Gongye Lie’s help, he could temper on his own.

Yet, when he tried a bit, he discovered that the efficiency of performing tempering alone and with Gongye Lie’s help was like night and day.

Gongye Lie’s three hammerings, especially the third one, had ten times the effectiveness of the first one.

It made him feel a significant transformation in his own bones, becoming even more solid.

Moreover, a jade-like gloss faintly radiated from his bones, no longer the pure whiteness it once was.

“How are the results?” Gongye Lie asked.

“Very good! The results are very good!”

Jiang Yuan replied.

“Can you still withstand it?”

“Yes!” Jiang Yuan nodded.

He understood that this was a rare opportunity to toughen his bones.

Having Gongye Lie’s help, could save him a lot of time.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan didn’t want to waste such an opportunity.

Hence, he closed his eyes again.

“Brother Gongye, please continue!”

Looking at Jiang Yuan’s calm demeanor, Gongye Lie inwardly marveled.

For he, the wielder of the hammer, understood most clearly just how much power that third hammer stroke contained.

It could just obliterate an ordinary practitioner at the first level of the Dharma Realm.

Yet that power, when it fell on Jiang Yuan, could only make him stagger, nothing more!

Knowing now how powerful Jiang Yuan’s physical body was, Gongye Lie stopped holding back.

After every hammer strike, he waited dozens of breaths’ time for Jiang Yuan to recover before giving the next one.

Under this sort of practice, particularly with Gongye Lie personally hammering him.

Jiang Yuan felt his bones undergo earth-shaking changes.

Impurities were not just hammered out, but as that golden mysterious substance merged in, his bones seemed to become stronger and tougher.

After half a day had passed.

Jiang Yuan looked at the jade-colored hue of his bones, a trace of delight in his eyes.

Compared to half a day ago, the hardness of the bones had increased significantly.

Suddenly, Gongye Lie stopped hammering.

“Can’t continue hammering anymore!”

“Why?”

“If you continue, your body won’t be able to take it! Take a look inside your body!”

Hearing Gongye Lie’s words, Jiang Yuan scanned his body with his divine sense and instantly realized why Gongye Lie would say such a thing.

After half a day of tempering, his blood became thinner, his divine sense had also diminished considerably.

The rate at which his heart was producing blood could no longer keep up with his consumption.

“You need a powerful medicine to nourish your body so that you can continue tempering! Don’t be impatient and rush things!”

Gongye Lie emphasized solemnly.

Looking at the junior brother before him, satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Unless there were any unexpected circumstances, this Temper Bone Technique would surely be greatly developed under Ninth Junior Brother’s hands.

Comparatively, Sixth Junior Brother fell far behind.

As for Eighth Junior Brother, the gap was even wider!

Regarding the remaining two junior sisters, Gongye Lie shook his head.

Even though both of them had received this Sacred Technique of Bone Tempering from him.

But it wasn’t him being sexist, the two gentle little sisters would find it hard to achieve great success on the Path of the Physical Body.

They were more suitable for the Divine Soul Path.

The Path of the Physical Body was, after all, best suited for males.

Hearing Gongye Lie’s words, Jiang Yuan laughed: “I might not have a thousand-year-old great medicine, but I do have this!”

As he spoke, a white light flashed in his hand.

A palm-sized blue bird suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand.

“Is this… a corpse of a blue bird at the ninth level of the Transfiguration Realm?”

“Yes!” Jiang Yuan nodded.

The next moment, a golden sun-like flame suddenly rose from his palm.

Heatwaves surged outward.

Gongye Lie’s eyes slightly narrowed, and he was inwardly shocked.

The True Fire of the Sun!!

His junior brother actually controlled the True Fire of the Sun. With this kind of flame, wouldn’t he be an excellent smithing genius?

He looked at Jiang Yuan again, taking in his youthful face.

Then he quietly shook his head.

What a pity!

He reached this point at such a young age; it was a waste of his talent to tread the path of a blacksmith.

Someone like him should instead walk a path that dominates an era.

Thinking of this, the fiery anticipation in Gongye Lie’s heart gradually died off.

Meanwhile, under the heat of the True Fire of the Sun, the blue bird’s feathers transformed into blue smoke and dissipated in an instant.

Jiang Yuan gestured with his fingertips, and several strands of sword qi exploded.

In the blink of an eye, the blue bird was cleanly processed.

After that, the True Fire of the Sun erupted again.

Now that Jiang Yuan had achieved the Dharma Realm, the True Fire of the Sun had become even more terrifying.

Under Jiang Yuan’s precise control, the processed blue bird was quickly baked by the True Fire of the Sun, releasing a mouth-watering aroma.

Gulp——

Gongye Lie swallowed unconsciously.

Only then did he realize he hadn’t eaten anything for several years.

Smelling this scent activated dormant memories. Gongye Lie’s mouth involuntarily began to salivate.

In less than the time it takes to brew a pot of tea, with Jiang Yuan’s current power, the ninth level Transfiguration Realm blue bird was thoroughly cooked.

Jiang Yuan tossed it into his mouth.

Under the grind of his teeth, the tough bones of the bird were ground into nothing.

In just a moment, the ninth level Transfiguration Realm blue bird had entered Jiang Yuan’s stomach.

Jiang Yuan sat cross-legged, and the Technique of Devouring Heaven emerged in his mind.

Starting to think about the Toad Devouring Heaven Diagram, his qi and blood also began circulating.

With the passage of time, a hazy image of the Toad Devouring Moon Diagram slowly emerged.

In an instant.

With the circulation of his qi and blood, Jiang Yuan felt a change in his stomach.

His stomach secreted extremely strong digestive juices. Under digestion, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt that he was digesting the essence of flesh and blood twice as fast as before.

Noticing this change, Jiang Yuan was elated.

It really works, such a good thing!

Keeping his mind calm, he continued to think about the Toad Devouring Moon Diagram.

As he continued this train of thought, the Toad Devouring Moon Diagram became clearer.

His digestion rate also increased.

Time continued flowing.

Gongye Lie also stopped his smithing and quietly waited for Jiang Yuan to finish on the side.

The sun set in the west, the moon rose and fell, and the Golden Crow rose.

A full day had passed.

Jiang Yuan stopped the Technique of Devouring Heaven because he had completely recovered to his peak state.

Immediately after, he silently detected Birdy Huang’s presence.

Birdy Huang was quickly changing positions at this time, seemingly quite happy.

Noticing her mood, Jiang Yuan was momentarily puzzled.

After thinking for a while, he decided to not bother about it.

Since she was so happy, it meant that she and Shu Xiaoxiao were safe.

He didn’t need to worry too much.

Moreover, they were not ordinary people.

Even without him, they could achieve Dao Fruit and glorify the ages.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes and stood up.

With a slight movement of his body, a thunderous sound resonated within him.

The power of his qi and blood hammered against his bones.

As a sensation of numbness spread, Jiang Yuan could feel his bones becoming slightly harder.

But this rate of change, compared to Gongye Lie’s proactive pounding, was far slower and completely out of the same realm.
