In the blink of an eye, nine days had passed.
On this day, Lin Fei's blood and qi trembled.
Immediately, he heard the voice of the system in his mind.
"Your Giant Whale Body Refining Technique has broken through to the eighth level after many days of hard training."
Lin Fei opened his eyes wide.
"Body Refining eight levels!"
Lin Fei immediately checked the system panel.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Arts Realm: Body Refining Eighth Level
Giant Whale Body Refining Technique: eighth level (2% progress)
Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist: transcendence (1% progress)
Nine Shadow Saber Technique: perfection (8% progress)
Vajra Iron Cloth: seventh level (6% progress)
Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique: sixth level (56% progress)
Sure enough, Lin Fei had now reached the eighth level of Body Refining. And Vajra Iron Cloth had finally reached the seventh level.
Lin Fei reached out his hand. His skin looked a bit rough. But it was as tough as cowhide.
Even ordinary sabers might not be able to cut his skin.
Vajra Iron Cloth had an unparalleled defense against some force attacks.
Now, even if Lin Fei stood still and let those below the seventh level of Body Refining attack him, he wouldn't be hurt much.
This was hard martial arts! Training hard martial arts was very slow. But if one reached a high level, it would be terrifying.
However, at this point, the effect of some of the Vajra Iron Cloth's medicine baths had already diminished.
Similarly, Lin Fei could clearly feel that the Blood-Increasing Pill's effect had also weakened a lot.
Although it had not completely lost its effect, if he wanted to rely on herbal baths and Blood-Increasing Pills to improve his training progress again, he would inevitably consume more quantities.
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
That meant silver. A huge amount of silver!
Lin Fei now had just over ten thousand contribution points on him.
For Lin Fei, it was not enough.
"It's been nine days... how Chen Lian's side is doing?"
Lin Fei thought for a moment, got up directly, and left the inner door.
Soon, Lin Fei arrived at Chen Lian's courtyard.
"Chen Lian, what is your Chen family's decision?"
Lin Fei saw Chen Lian in the courtyard and asked directly.
"Senior Brother Lin, I was just about to find you."
"Yesterday, someone from the Chen family came. They also brought silver bills and said that a genius like Senior Brother Lin needs at least 20,000 taels of silver a year." Chen Lian immediately took out the silver bills.
"20,000 taels?" Lin Fei took the silver bills.
He remembered very clearly that his request was only 15,000 taels of silver a year.
But the Chen family's attitude was very strange. They gave an extra 5,000 taels of silver.
"Interesting. I feel your sincerity." Lin Fei nodded.
His goodwill towards the Chen family immediately increased a lot.
After all, he was really short of silver now. And the Chen family just right sent it over.
"As long as you are satisfied, Senior Brother Lin." Chen Lian smiled.
Lin Fei returned to the inner door.
He now had more than 30,000 contribution points. So he directly bought thirty Blood-Increasing Pills.
Lin Fei now only hoped to reach the ninth level of Body Refining as soon as possible.
Because, only when he reached the ninth level of Body Refining, could he try to give birth to the inner power.
Once inner power was born, he would become an Acquired martial artist.
There was a fundamental difference between an Acquired martial artist and a Body Refining martial artist.
Now Lin Fei didn't have many contribution points left. His cultivation speed in the future would inevitably slow down.
Lin Fei thought about it, but he didn't have a good solution.
After advancing to the eighth level of Body Refining, Lin Fei used the Blood-Increasing Pills again.
He could absorb three pills every day.
Therefore, in just ten days, Lin Fei's Blood-Increasing Pills were consumed.
And Lin Fei's progress in the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique was only 40%.
In other words, three Blood-Increasing Pills could only increase Lin Fei's progress in the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique by 4% each day.
However, even so, the Blood-Increasing Pill was also gone.
It was increasingly difficult for Lin Fei to maintain a 4% daily speed increase.
However, there was also some good news. Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique had reached the seventh level.
The progress of the Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique had always been steady. It only needed to listen to Buddhist and Taoist scriptures.
However, after reaching the seventh level, just listening to Buddhist and Taoist scriptures was no longer enough. Its progress had also slowed down.
During this time, Lin Fei was hesitant because his Body Refining progress was very slow.
He went to the Martial Arts Pavilion and practiced some saber techniques. However, each of them barely reached transcendence. All of them had hit a bottleneck.
By now, almost all of Lin Fei's martial arts skills had hit a bottleneck and could no longer be improved.
"I need to come up with a plan... and the most important thing is to earn contribution points!"
A thousand contribution points per month were clearly not enough to support Lin Fei's cultivation.
"Let's go to the task hall and see."
Lin Fei was also helpless and could only go to the task hall to see if there were any suitable missions for him.
He now understood why most of the disciples who accepted missions were inner disciples, while outer disciples were rare.
Inner disciples consumed resources at a terrifying rate, and without doing missions, they couldn't sustain the cost of practicing martial arts.
Lin Fei went to the task hall. It always seemed crowded here.
The task wall was covered with various missions.
"Lin Fei."
Suddenly, a clear and cold female voice came from behind Lin Fei.
