Chapter 179: Intermediate Supreme Master
Chapter 179: Intermediate Supreme Master
September 4, 2024
Inside the Sharpening Hall, silence reigned.
Scattered martial arts manuals lay on the ground.
After a long while, Gu Qingfeng's face broke into a smile. When he looked at his attribute panel, he saw some changes.
...
Elixir of Eternal Life (Perfection, Longevity Level 3)!
...
"Bone Refinement is complete!"
Gu Qingfeng felt no great excitement, as if creating the Bone Refinement chapter was a natural progression.
In fact, it was.
This time, Gu Yang had sent a large number of martial arts manuals, which, combined with his previous cultivation, made the creation of the Bone Refinement chapter much easier than the previous chapters.
Now that the Bone Refinement chapter was complete, the Elixir of Eternal Life was halfway done.
Based on Gu Qingfeng's current plan, the Elixir of Eternal Life would only cover the five stages of body refinement: Skin Refinement, Bone Refinement, Marrow Washing, Organ Refinement, and finally, Viscera Refinement.
With the Bone Refinement chapter now complete, only the Marrow Washing and Viscera Refinement chapters remained.
Subsequently, Gu Qingfeng habitually glanced at his information panel.
...
"Your offspring 'Gu Yang' has been ennobled by the imperial court!"
"Your offspring 'Gu Yang' has perfectly refined his skin, increasing his strength!"
"Your offspring 'Gu Yang' has received guidance from the Divine Martial Sect's leader, Gu Yun, enhancing his cultivation!"
"Your offspring 'Gu Yang' has unexpectedly inherited a Grandmaster's legacy!"
"Your offspring 'Gu Xuan' has made some progress in the Elixir of Eternal Life, increasing his strength!"
"Your offspring 'Gu Xiu' has made some progress in the Elixir of Eternal Life, increasing his strength!"
"Your offspring 'Gu Yang' has taken a secret elixir from the Divine Martial Sect, significantly enhancing his cultivation!"
"Your offspring 'Gu Yang' has broken through to the advanced stage of Bone Refinement!"
"Reward: 100 Enhancement Points!"
"Reward: 100 Bone Refinement Pills!"
"Reward: 100 Marrow Washing Pills!"
"Reward: 10 Viscera Refinement Pills!"
...
When he saw that Gu Yang had successfully perfected his skin refinement, Gu Qingfeng's face broke into a smile.
Perfected skin refinement could extend one's lifespan by a hundred years.
For a martial artist, a hundred years of additional life could change many things.
Similarly, Gu Yang's successful skin refinement meant that even if he made no further breakthroughs, he could still live a hundred years longer.
However, when Gu Qingfeng saw that Gu Yang had inherited a Grandmaster's legacy and taken a secret elixir from the Divine Martial Sect, he was somewhat surprised.
The Grandmaster's legacy was one thing, but the secret elixir from the Divine Martial Sect, which allowed Gu Yang to break through from the intermediate stage of Bone Refinement to the advanced stage, was quite remarkable.
But upon further thought, Gu Qingfeng was reassured.
The Divine Martial Sect, being the top sect in the world with a lineage tracing back to the Martial Ancestor, naturally had some secret elixirs that could help martial artists break through.
Moreover, it was just a breakthrough for a Bone Refinement stage martial artist, not a Grandmaster.
In contrast, the imperial court's ennoblement of Gu Yang was more concerning.
"Ennoblement by the imperial court?"
"Ennobling a rebel?"
Given that Gu Yang had declared himself king and taken control of Mount Tai Commandery, he was essentially a rebel in the eyes of the imperial court.
In the past, such actions would have warranted the extermination of the entire family. Now, the imperial court was ennobling him, which was quite intriguing.
Upon further reflection, Gu Qingfeng understood the key point.
Subsequently, Gu Qingfeng glanced at his attribute panel and directly upgraded the Sun and Moon Fist Manual to the perfected stage.
...
Boom!
With the Sun and Moon Fist Manual perfected, a ninth-level True Intent was born.
Gu Qingfeng's eyes seemed to reflect the sun and moon, and a vast surge of life force emerged. Behind him, the life force seemed to radiate outward, intertwining like the sun and moon, and a towering figure appeared, suppressing the heavens and the earth.
The strange phenomenon appeared and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In no time at all, Ethan Greenpeak had completed his breakthrough in the Solar Lunar Fist Manual.
At this moment, his understanding of the Solar Lunar Fist Manual had reached its peak. Even compared to the powerful martial artists who originally created it, Ethan Greenpeak was not the least bit inferior.
Using cultivation points to break through in martial arts was not just about directly mastering the power. It was as if he had spent years diligently practicing the technique, with all the memories and insights accompanying it.
In other words, Ethan Greenpeak had effectively studied the Solar Lunar Fist Manual for centuries, thoroughly mastering this grandmaster-level martial art to the point of returning to a state of pure simplicity.
Afterward, Ethan Greenpeak glanced at his attribute panel once more.

...
This year, Ethan Greenpeak was forty-three years old.
He had advanced to the Middle-Stage Grandmaster of the Ultimate Path.
Achieving perfection in a grandmaster-level martial art had significantly enhanced Ethan Greenpeak's strength, allowing him to take another step forward in his existing realm.
Compared to the Early-Stage Grandmaster of the Ultimate Path, after breaking through to the Middle-Stage, Ethan Greenpeak felt his blood and qi power become even more formidable than before.
At this point, the role of true qi had actually diminished.
Ethan Greenpeak was well aware of the reason for this.
Martial artists focus on refining their physical bodies, primarily to nurture their blood and qi. The appearance of true qi was somewhat of a deviation.
After all, it is not easy for martial artists to nurture their blood and qi, so once they reach the perfection stage of refining their organs, the number of those who can truly break through to become Blood and Qi Masters is very few.
Some martial artists who find it difficult to break through to the Blood and Qi Master stage instead cultivate true qi, thus achieving the grandmaster rank through an alternative method, becoming Innate Masters.
However, blood and qi remain the foundation of martial artists.
This is why Blood and Qi Masters are stronger than Innate Masters.
As for Grandmasters of the Ultimate Path, they are a further transformation of Blood and Qi Masters.
One could say that the blood and qi of a Grandmaster of the Ultimate Path are far more powerful than those of a so-called Blood and Qi Master.
"With my current Middle-Stage Grandmaster of the Ultimate Path cultivation, even without the power of the two Heavenly Veins, I am more than capable of suppressing Yitian Greenpeak!"
"If I activate a Heavenly Vein, I could instantly kill him with just the power of one!"
A sharp gleam appeared in Ethan Greenpeak's eyes.
Unfortunately, compared to the existence that left behind the blood, his current cultivation was still far from enough.
But this was not a significant problem.
Cultivation is a gradual process.
In the future, Ethan Greenpeak would have the confidence to face the Buddha of the Nine Heavens.
For now, he needed to focus on enhancing his cultivation realm as much as possible.
Each step of the breakthrough for a Grandmaster of the Ultimate Path requires a considerable amount of accumulation.
With the Solar Lunar Fist Manual now perfected, the next level of advancement would require far more effort. To make further progress, he needed to seek improvements in other areas.
With this in mind, Ethan Greenpeak turned his attention to the grandmaster-level techniques of various sects.
