Chapter 212: Chapter 132: Breaking Through to Innate, the Gold-Ingestion Dilemma (Part 4)

Only when he exerted half his strength, a full force of over ten thousand pounds, did red marks start to appear on his skin, showing signs of breaking and bleeding.

He took a deep breath.

"Such tough skin, such a resilient body.

I need to reassess that Sword Gang Stream... That rebel Gu Chen was able to backstab with a single sword, piercing through Han Wushang.

His attack power at that moment must have reached at least twenty thousand pounds or more.

This means that this Sword Gang Stream at least doubled his attack strength."

"And this is because Gu Chen had not practiced for long and had a weak foundation.

If he were to practice for a long time and reach the foundational strength of Han Wushang and Gao Yue, doubling or even multiplying his attack power wouldn’t be impossible."

Thinking this way, Chen Ping was tempted to rush into cultivating Sword Gang Stream.

However, recalling some secrets he heard during Trace Origin and Steal Fortune, he hesitated.

"This Secret Technique poses too great a risk before mastering the Three Yang Heart-Burning Technique, with the danger of going insane and a drastic change in temperament at any time.

If not careful, one could end up a lunatic, and that would be disastrous. Better to take it slow..."

He glanced at the Attribute Column again.

[Spring and Autumn Silkworm (Second Transformation)]

[Talent: Trace Origin and Steal Fortune, Cocoon Rebirth]

[Innate Talent: 7 (Quite Potential)]

[Enlightenment: 10 (Dragon and Phoenix in the Human World)]

[Body Refining: Tier Five (Innate First Rank)]

[Qi Refining: Tier Three (Meridian Passage) 8%]

Finally reached the Innate level.

Chen Ping noticed he still had Tribulation Points.

He wanted to see if he could improve his Golden Body Technique.

He didn’t quite understand why Han Wushang’s cultivation had made little progress over the years.

Spending another 16 Tribulation Points, his vision blurred, countless knowledge and insights appeared, advancing the Golden Body Technique from Proficient to Mastery.

His body tensed, and his expression changed drastically.

In a hurry, he poured the remaining Blood Ginseng Pills into his mouth, but it was not enough, so he quickly swallowed a bottle of Jade Ginseng Pills as well.

He felt the surging medicinal power spreading and a strange and ravenous hunger emanating from the depths of his muscles and marrow...

"I finally understand why so few have mastered this Golden Body Technique, and why they dare not advance it.

It’s about nutrition...

Even Blood Ginseng Pills are not very effective; it requires higher-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, or other forms of energy from heaven and earth to supplement. Who would dare to enhance it?"

"No, I need to ask my mentor where to find such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

How did the experts of the Primordial Sect in the past reach high ranks?

Especially the fifth-generation Grandmaster, who reached the Peak of Grandmaster level... There must be a way."

Chen Ping was both happy and concerned within.

The joy was that his strength had significantly increased again.

He casually picked up the fine steel long sword beside him, and with two fingers pinching the sword body, two fingerprints appeared. With a forceful flick, a loud noise erupted, and cracks formed on the sword body.

This body was solid; internally, the Golden Light Gang Force generated, making his entire body like a solid block of steel, and the mobilization of power was swift.

The increase in attack power was more than double.

The same power, the same techniques, with just a change in energy application and the achievement of the Golden Body, made the attack two to three times stronger.

This was the difference between wood and steel.

Indeed, Realm Cultivation is the true path.

Everything else is auxiliary.

If before he could only utilize thirty percent of his body’s power, now it has reached one hundred percent.

With the improving level of the Innate tier Golden Body Technique, in the foreseeable future, it might even reach one hundred, two hundred, or three hundred percent utilization.

The concern was that in the future, he might become a glutton for gold.

Even if he has silver, he still needs to be able to buy Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

That’s a challenge.
