Chapter 89: Special Means, Unlocking the Body's Limitations!

Chapter 89: Special Means, Unlocking the Body's Limitations!

In the courtyard of the martial arts academy.

Jiang Ning, having activated the latent potential within his body, took a step forward.

Boom—

His leg muscles suddenly exerted force, causing the dirt beneath his feet to explode like it had been hit by a cannonball, scattering in all directions.

The wind howled in his ears.

If someone were watching from the side, they would see that Jiang Ning's figure was exceptionally tall, and in the not-so-large courtyard, he seemed to move back and forth without any inertia.

As his figure moved back and forth, the wind he stirred up occasionally swept up leaves and dust from the surroundings.

A moment later.

Jiang Ning suddenly stopped.

The dirt beneath his feet was kicked up in a frenzy.

He clenched his fists again, feeling that his body was still in a state of extreme vigor.

It was as if he had inhaled a large amount of stimulants, giving him the urge to release this power.

"Is this the state of fully unleashing the body's potential?" Jiang Ning muttered to himself.

He could feel that at this moment, he was not tired at all, and both his strength and speed had increased significantly.

It was as if he had unleashed a frenzy.

This state even affected his mind, making him feel somewhat impulsive.

Jiang Ning completely understood this.

The human body is inherently controlled by various hormones.

For example, the secretion of dopamine can bring immense joy.

The secretion of adrenaline can significantly enhance the body's abilities, making one fearless of pain and fatigue.

By activating his body's potential, various substances would naturally be secreted.

Then.

Jiang Ning's mind stirred slightly, and the reddish skin on his body gradually returned to normal, and his body temperature started to decrease.

His dilated pupils also returned to their normal state.

Under his mental control, the potential within his body that had been unleashed slowly closed, and his body gradually returned to normal.

A moment later.

When everything had completely calmed down, he instantly felt a sense of emptiness and weakness, and his legs felt slightly soft.

It was like he had spent the night in a pleasure house.

Jiang Ning returned to his room and picked up the bottle of medicinal wine given to him by the martial arts disciples from the academy.

Glug—

He took a big gulp.

Instantly, he felt the fiery liquor burning down his throat into his stomach.

The liquor in his stomach seemed to burn like fire.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on his body.

At the same time, Jiang Ning felt his body gradually regaining strength, and the energy he had consumed was slowly recovering.

"It seems that actively unleashing potential cannot be done frequently; it has a significant negative impact on the body."

"I only activated it for a short moment, and after this state, I feel various discomforts in my body."

"It's understandable that prolonged activation of this potential will undoubtedly have a significant negative impact on the body."

Jiang Ning's thoughts turned, but he felt it was quite normal.

Energy conservation, the law of nature.

Such a powerful effect would inevitably consume a large amount of the body's internal substances.

It's normal to have some after-effects for a short period after such an intense release.

Recalling the feeling of invincibility after activating his potential, Jiang Ning smiled.

"The effect is indeed strong; it's a very practical skill!"

He glanced at his status panel.

【Skills】: Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique (Proficiency 0/2000)



"I still need 2,000 experience points to break through to the Minor Accomplishment stage."

"At the Minor Accomplishment stage of Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique, my organs' strength and function will further enhance, and I will be able to master special techniques using Inner Breath."

Jiang Ning thought to himself.

With this in mind, he eagerly anticipated the day when his Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique would reach the Minor Accomplishment stage.

At that time, his strength would undoubtedly increase significantly.

Then.

As he waited for the medicinal wine to take effect.

Jiang Ning took out the gifts given to him by the martial arts disciples the day before and began to go through them.

A moment later.

After finishing his inventory, he piled up the silver coins and silver notes.

"A total of approximately 138 taels of silver!"

"Now that my Qi and Blood are perfected, I should go to the Wanhua Tower today."

"Before Shen Congyun left, he specifically instructed me to go to the Wanhua Tower to find Lin Qingyi, the Tower Lord, once my Qi and Blood are perfected. He said he had something for me there."

"Now that my Qi and Blood are perfected, it's time for me to find Lin Qingyi, the Tower Lord!"

"After all, it's been less than two months since Wang Jin mentioned that the Patrol Bureau would open in three months."

"To meet the qualifications for joining the Patrol Bureau, I must enter the Ninth Stage of Martial Arts."

These thoughts flashed through Jiang Ning's mind, and he made up his mind.

Afterward, he would go to the Wanhua Tower and then head home to give the more than 100 taels of silver to his older brother, Jiang Li.

After all, Jiang Li had lost his right arm and now had to support his family, and he had borrowed a lot of silver from Feng Buchou for Jiang Ning's martial arts training.

Although Feng Buchou had said not to worry about repaying it quickly due to Shen Congyun's influence, Jiang Ning didn't want to be indebted for such a small favor.

Moreover, for him, this small amount of silver was not of much use.

The more than 100 taels of silver wouldn't last him long, but giving it to his older brother and sister-in-law would significantly improve their living conditions.

After making up his mind.

He got up and left his room.

Stepping into the courtyard, he looked up at the sun above.

He glanced at the Sun Crown placed in the courtyard and knew the time.

It was just past the third hour.

Still early!

It was also the time for practicing Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique after reaching proficiency.

But thinking about the impact on his organs after breaking through in Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique.

Jiang Ning shook his head.

"Forget it! I won't practice today!"

"I'll rest for the day and let my organs recover."

"After all, absorbing the Great Sun Essence Qi and the burning sensation it brings is a significant burden on my organs."

In the front courtyard of the martial arts academy.

Jiang Ning appeared there and then went to the corner where the stone lock was kept.

"Let's test my strength in a different way."

After making up his mind, he bent down, slightly bent his waist, and firmly grabbed a 500-jin stone lock with both hands.

Then, as he exerted force with his arms.

The 500-jin stone lock was instantly lifted by him and raised high above his head.

"It's a bit light!" He said.

He then threw the stone lock with both hands, tossing it a few feet into the air before catching it steadily as it fell.

"It's indeed very light!"

He exclaimed, then put down the stone lock.

Then.

He grabbed the stone lock with one arm, and it rose from the ground again.

When he raised it to his shoulder, he instantly felt significant pressure.

"Begin!"

With a light shout, he exerted force with his right arm, causing his muscles to bulge.

The 500-jin stone lock was effortlessly lifted above his head.

The error-free version is available at 69 Book Bar! 6=9 Book Bar is the first to release this novel.

After a few moments.

He slowly lowered the stone lock.

Boom!

As it hit the ground, the 500-jin stone lock made contact with the floor, instantly producing a dull thud, accompanied by a slight vibration.

After the test, Jiang Ning instantly gained a rough understanding of his own strength.

He muttered to himself, "My single arm should have a force of around 800 to 900 jin. Ordinary martial artists with perfect vital energy, like Cheng Ran, are just over 500 jin, and rarely exceed 600 jin."

"Ordinary martial artists who have just entered the Ninth Stage Martial Dao and have achieved perfection in Skin Tempering should also have a force of around 700 to 800 jin."

"In other words, my single-arm strength is already not inferior to that of ordinary Ninth Stage Martial Dao experts."

"At the level of Vital Energy Perfection, my strength is even more overwhelming compared to others, unless it's someone who is born with divine strength and martial talent. Only they might be able to match me in terms of strength at this level of Vital Energy Perfection!"

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning felt very satisfied.

His efforts these days had indeed paid off with good results.

This level of strength made him feel more at ease.

At the very least, if he encountered Xu Yunfeng again, he would have no fear.

Even when facing a master like Cao Bin, who had achieved perfection in Skin Tempering, he had the confidence to fight him.

As for Cao Rong, Jiang Ning knew that he was still far behind.

Cao Rong was a Seventh Stage Martial Dao expert at the peak of his power, not far from reaching the Sixth Stage, and his strength was subtly above Wang Jin's.

This level of strength, regardless of age, was enough to rank among the top ten in all of Luo Water County.

Cao Rong's archery skills were so powerful that he could shoot arrows capable of causing sonic booms. Such strength was truly formidable.

Jiang Ning also knew that he was far from being able to match Cao Rong at this point.

However, Jiang Ning didn't feel too much apprehension towards Cao Rong.

But he was already aware that this person had left Luo Water County and returned to the county seat of Dongling Prefecture, Dongling City, to rejoin the military.

Moreover, Cao Rong was part of the military, and it would be the next holiday before he returned to Luo Water County, and no one knew when that would be.

By then, Jiang Ning would no longer be the same person.

After all, he had only been practicing martial arts for just over a month, not even a month and a half.

After that.

Jiang Ning rested for a moment and then continued his fist training.

In the county hall.

"I present myself before Chief Cao!" Xu Yunfeng said respectfully.

Cao Bin spoke, "Do you know why I'm here today?"

Xu Yunfeng shook his head, "No, sir."

Cao Bin said, "Do you want to join the Patrol Bureau?"

Xu Yunfeng's eyes lit up, and he said with hope, "Yes, sir! If I can join the Patrol Bureau, I will dedicate my life to you!"

Seeing this, Cao Bin nodded slightly.

"Then I'll give you an opportunity, a chance that requires you to risk your life to seize!"

"Please tell me, sir!" Xu Yunfeng said respectfully.

Cao Bin said, "I want you to remove your patrol identity today, then take my identity token to the Green Serpent Gang, and succeed the position of the Fourth Hall Master. No matter what means you use, get rid of Jiang Ning and Jiang Li, and bring Liu Wanwan to me."

"If you can do this, I'll give you this opportunity."

"If you fail, I'll take your head to the Canglang Martial Academy, and give Jiang Ning and Wang Jin a belated apology!"

Xu Yunfeng listened quietly to these words, his gaze fixed on Cao Bin.

"Sir, leave this matter to me, and I'll handle it properly."

"But..."

Before Xu Yunfeng could finish, Cao Bin interrupted, "There are no buts! Don't worry about the consequences. What about Shen Congyun? Even if he has reached the Sixth Stage, would he really ruin the reputation of Wanhua Tower and antagonize the Cao family over a dead man?"

"By making this arrangement, I've already given him enough face publicly!"

"He, Shen Congyun, should also be wise enough to find a way to save face."

Xu Yunfeng stood respectfully to the side, listening to these words.

He bowed and said, "Since you've made up your mind, sir, I have no more concerns. Please rest assured, sir, I will handle this matter properly."

Upon hearing this, Cao Bin sat upright in his chair, calmly sipping his tea, his expression serene.

Then, he put down his tea and took out a golden jade token from his body.

On the token was a large character 'Cao'.

"Take this token and find the leader of the Green Serpent Gang, Shi Xiaoyuan. Also, deliver my verbal order. No matter what methods you use, get rid of Jiang Ning and Jiang Li, and bring Liu Wanwan to me."

"Yes, sir!" Xu Yunfeng took the token, bowed, and saluted.

Cao Bin picked up his tea again, his expression calm.

"You may go now!"

As his words fell, Cao Bin added, "Remember, in handling this matter, Jiang Ning must be taken care of. Since he is valued by Shen Congyun, if we offend him, we must make sure he's dealt with!"

"But when dealing with Jiang Ning, try to avoid letting others see it. It's best if there's no evidence left behind."

"Yes, sir! I understand!" Xu Yunfeng saluted and withdrew.

After leaving the hall, Xu Yunfeng's eyes flashed with disdain for Cao Bin.

"What a fool!"

"For that boy to be valued so highly by Shen Congyun, that he would even break the rules of Wanhua Tower to help, it's clear that Jiang Ning must be an extraordinary person with an extremely high martial arts talent."

"To risk his reputation and pleasure for a momentary indulgence is truly foolish."

"Not knowing how to turn animosity into friendship..."

"If I succeed, it's fine, but if I fail..."

Thinking of this consequence, Xu Yunfeng's disdain for Cao Bin intensified. Such a person couldn't even control his desires, how pathetic.

In Xu Yunfeng's eyes, Cao Bin's privileged birth and status as a direct descendant of the Cao family were the only reasons he had to bow down.

If not for his background, Cao Bin would never have achieved his current strength and status in Xu Yunfeng's eyes.

As the legitimate heir of the Cao family, enjoying countless resources, yet still stuck at the Ninth Stage Martial Dao and perfection in Skin Tempering at over thirty years old, what a waste.

At the same time, Xu Yunfeng clenched his fists, determined.

"I must change my fate!"

"I will climb up, step by step!"

"I must join the Patrol Bureau!"

"This is my chance to change my destiny!"

"Jiang Ning, I'm sorry, but I need your head to make my move!"
