Chapter 354: Daily Cultivation (Requesting Monthly Vote)
"Glug, glug!"
Lin Qi strode over, grabbed three bottles of Energy Brew, and chugged them one after another.
Cracking his neck, he felt his joints shift as his spine straightened vertebra by vertebra. His bones grew heavier, yet a deeper transformation had already occurred—they’d become significantly harder, as if forged from superalloyed steel.
As he stretched his joints, raw power surged from his skeleton. A single punch felt capable of shattering any concrete wall. He could even withstand far stronger attacks now.
Bones were the body’s foundation, its structural pillar. The process of bone tempering was also one of forging a martial artist’s will and self-assurance. With stronger bones came unshakable confidence.
After finishing his stretches, Lin Qi turned to the two metal chests filled with elixirs.
"My spiritual power cultivation has unexpectedly accelerated—it’s much faster than both my vitality stat growth and martial arts progress."
He felt puzzled. With access to the Spiritual Cultivation Arena, Spiritual Martial Arts, and abundant resources, his spiritual power was advancing at an unprecedented pace. Daily cultivation flowed smoothly without bottlenecks, steadily climbing.
It was likely he’d break into the Fifth Realm before his vitality stat did.
The rise in spiritual power also directly accelerated physical refinement and martial arts mastery. This had created a perfect positive cycle!
Now, the Bone Tempering Elixirs—ten ordinary bottles and four premium ones remained.
"Once these are all used up, I’ll reach the late-Fourth Realm stage."
Late-Fourth Realm meant 300 vitality. That put him within striking distance of the Fifth Realm, needing less than 100 more vitality points.
...
At Ten Azure Colleges’ sprawling luxury villa, inside the Martial Arts Training Hall,
Yu Zhuoran sat cross-legged on a black cushion, his sharp features and athletic build accentuated by the white martial robe he wore. Before him sat a silver metal case filled with vials of emerald elixirs.
"Lin Qi’s already surpassed me!"
"I’m certain—months ago, he was weaker than me."
"But now he’s pulled ahead!"
"I’m still too weak. Not diligent enough, my willpower lacks conviction, and my mental resilience is insufficient!"
"From now on, my goal is to surpass Lin Qi!"
With that thought, Yu Zhuoran uncorked a Premium Bone Tempering Elixir and downed it. Rising, he unhooked a sharp battle saber from the wall and began practicing blade techniques.
"Hmph!"
Minutes later, the Premium Bone Tempering Elixir ignited within him, his bones searing as if forged in white-hot flames. His consciousness dove inward, sensing surging currents of electricity coursing through his muscles.
Complex silver patterns surfaced on his translucent bones, glowing fiercely as they completed their transformation.
"Zzzt!!"
Lightning crackled across Yu Zhuoran’s body. A tingling numbness spread through him as his bones tempered perfectly, his strength growing by the second.
"I have the Special Ability ‘Seamless Cultivation’!"
"Yet Lin Qi has no awakened abilities or wealthy backing—he lacks my resources."
"Why then does he cultivate faster than me?!"
A sudden thought struck him: "Could it be... we’re just lazier?"
Yu Zhuoran’s mind swirled with confusion, unable to find an answer.
...
That evening, inside the Martial Arts Training Hall,
Lin Qi sat cross-legged in the Five Hearts to Sky posture, refining his Primordial Energy Martial Art.
"Roar!"
Within his Consciousness Realm, a colossal Platinum Malevolence Tiger bellowed, its aura radiating terrifying malevolence. Every movement sent ripples through the realm, drawing in primordial energy particles like whirlwinds into its maw.
"Hmm?"
Lin Qi suddenly sensed an anomaly—the primordial energy concentration in the entire training hall felt off.
"It’s increased!"
Currents of primordial energy surged into his body like cascading waterfalls, far denser than before. He knew the hall’s usual energy levels intimately, but tonight’s surge had started just an hour ago.
"Is this Dean Liu’s doing?"
He instantly guessed the truth—joining the Ten Institute’s competition had granted him partial SS-Rank Genius privileges. The enhanced primordial energy concentration was proof.
Without hesitation, he began absorbing the energy greedily. The richer concentration allowed far greater intake.
Cool streams entered through his pores, devoured by cells, filtered, then stored in muscles and organs. He felt his body rapidly transforming—muscles, sinews, skin, bones, and organs all evolving.
Two hours later—
"Huff!"
Lin Qi’s eyes snapped open, releasing a terrifying aura. Golden radiance blazed from his pupils, surrounded by tiger-like malevolence. The floating Xiaochan nearby was blown backward by the shockwave.
[Your surrounding primordial energy concentration has increased. Your primordial energy cultivation efficiency improves. Vitality Stat +3]
[Vitality Stat: 265→268]
...
"Good!"
Lin Qi stood, nodding. A two-hour session netted three vitality points. Two sessions daily meant six points per day.
"My late-Fourth Realm breakthrough will come even sooner!"
He immediately messaged Dean Liu.
"Lin Qi, while you’re not officially an SS-Rank Genius yet, you’ll gradually receive equivalent privileges."
"The primordial energy concentration here now matches—no, exceeds—the Ten Institute’s standards."
Dean Liu chuckled over the video call. "Your focus is simple: cultivate harder!"
"This is just the beginning. Fourth Realm is only the first stage. Laying solid foundations at every step matters."
"Our expectations for you have risen—from Eighth Stage to Nine Realms Champion potential!"
"Blue Planet’s future rests on your shoulders!"
After hanging up, Lin Qi stood in silent agreement.
Indeed, Blue Planet’s future depended on him. With his innate talent, reaching Nine Realms as a Title-Bearing Martial Artist was inevitable. He simply needed to accelerate the journey.
The sooner he broke through, the fewer lives would be lost to war.
The Fourth Realm was merely the first step—Fifth Realm, Sixth Stage, Seventh Realm, and Eighth Stage still lay ahead.
He set a new goal: Break through to late-Fourth Realm by semester’s end!
With renewed determination, he chugged a Bone Tempering Elixir, grabbed the Tiger Malevolence Spear, and resumed his martial arts training.
