A few breaths later,
When Chen Yi was practicing the sixth form of the Vajra Fist, he suddenly felt an emptiness in his Vitality and Blood. Despite any posture he held, he could not get his Vitality and Blood to flow to the respective parts of the body.
At the same time, an extreme pang of hunger came from his stomach. Weak, famished, seeing dark spots, juices of motivation all dried up—these sensations suddenly sprang on him.
Chen Yi understood that it seemed he had overdid the training. The power of his Vitality and Blood had been consumed too much, and his body was at a deficit.
But, he had only practiced six forms. Was the consumption of Vitality and Blood by the Vajra Sutra this huge?
What Chen Yi hadn't noticed was that, after completing the six forms, half the skin on his upper body was turning red and itching. This was an effect of the nourishment of Vitality and Blood.
The Body Refining Techniques in this world, in terms of improving the strength of the body, are too much superior,
The difference is that the foundation of Fist Techniques in the Martial World is the Breathing Techniques, which can nurture and enhance the Vitality and Blood,
But this Vajra Sutra seems to consume Vitality and Blood and transfer the energy into the flesh and skin, thereby improving the condition of a person's skin and muscles,
The two ways of thinking, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, complement each other and make up for each other's shortcomings.
But these two cultivation methods, both require a lot of replenishment of vitality and Vitality and Blood Power!
Despite running out of steam after just six attempts at cultivating for the first time, Chen Yi was not at all discouraged.
With this Endless Marsh and Spirit-containing Air, all he needed to do was eat and replenish slowly and then practice.
Now that he had the Martial Method, everything would get better.
While he was fishing and baiting, he was thinking about the Vajra Sutra.
After the first cultivation, he felt that he was getting the hang of it. Under the condition of having Vitality and Blood Power, the Vajra Sutra was extremely effective when practicing body cultivation,
Perhaps other people in the world could also achieve such results when cultivating the Vajra Sutra, but they relied on the healing power of medicine to propel the Vitality and Blood Power to cultivate Vajra Sutra, while he relied on the rhythm of sensing the movement of Vitality and Blood Power for propulsion,
Not to mention the world of difference between the two, and what side effects the power of the medicine will have on the body when it enters the blood,
Just the few tens or hundreds of gold coins needed for each dose of medication, he had saved that much!
"I made a fortune! Today I have made 100 gold coins, a thousand two silver!"
Splash! A splash sounded as a big fish, almost two feet long, entered the net, and Chen Yi pulled the long bow in his hand to its limit.
Whoosh, a fish arrow with a hook and curve was thrown into the water in an instant,
The next moment,
With a pull, the fish of over twenty pounds was flung out of the water and landed on the boat board.
Clean the fish, remove the cheeks and guts, boil the water, put it in a pot, sprinkle some salt, sprinkle some pepper,
A big nourishing and delicious meal was ready again.
It's worth mentioning that when he just caught this big fish, Chen Yi saw a black fish with a red line on its side swiftly passing by. He took a closer look this time and roughly guessed that it was a Red-Blooded Black Carp, but despite being prepared, he still couldn't net it.
Shortly after, Chen Yi finished a pot of fish, including the meat and soup, and still didn't feel full.
His strength had probably only recovered by about 50%.
"Has my appetite increased again?!"
Chen Yi was a bit worried about this. As he kept training in both worlds, his body grew stronger, but his appetite also grew. This way, he feared the two hundred pounds of grains stored at home wouldn't last a month.
"I wonder how effective the expensive rice in this world is in replenishing energy? When I have a chance to make some money, I should give it a try."
...
Three days later, at the Iron Fist Sect Hall in the Martial World.
Morning lessons.
Chen Yi was performing every move of the Iron Wire Fist technique,
Ever since he learned the Vajra Fist, somehow his understanding of the Iron Wire Fist seemed to have advanced to a higher level.
Many aspects of how to manipulate Vitality and Blood which he previously did not understand, have now become clearer,
Chen Yi felt that the Iron Wire Fist was much like the first three movements of the Vajra Fist that focussed specifically on training the arms, only that each movement had been broken down into six techniques, making a total of eighteen movements.
The Vajra Fist was like a general guide, and now that he had the corroborative evidence of the two fist techniques, His understanding of the Vitality and Blood trajectory and objective of every move of the Iron Wire Fist was as clear as glass.
With each punch, he effortlessly controlled his movements, allowing the Vitality and Blood to circulate as he wished.
In accordance with the momentum of his punches, the Vitality and Blood within Chen Yi's body gradually coiled into a strand.
He suddenly felt a sharp force formed by his Vitality and Blood wanting to break out of his body,
Snap!
As Chen Yi threw his last punch, a sound appeared out of thin air.
One would pay a fortune just to hear such a sound,
He had achieved Mingjin!
Chen Yi closed his eyes to sense and understand: "So this is Mingjin, where Vitality and Blood merge into one to form power,"
This punch he just threw probably had at least five hundred pounds of force.
The internal strength in a punch and arm strength were different. He could now lift 300 pounds with one arm, but the imparted force in a punch amplified the power manyfold!
Simultaneously, Chen Yi felt his fists tingling and itching, followed by a slight decrease in the sensory perception of the skin on his arms.
He forcefully pinched himself, and surprisingly found that the skin on his forearm had thickened considerably, like cowhide!
As expected, the first level of Mingjin, three hundred pounds of strength, with skin tough as cowhide, was achieved.
Only, this Iron Wire Fist only trains the arms, while the Vajra Sutra trains the entire body. He will have to complete the cultivation of Mingjin throughout his body upon returning to the Spiritual Energy World.
When it comes to fighting, while others from the martial arts school can only impart Mingjin through their fists, his whole body would be reinforced with the power of Mingjin, undoubtedly setting clear who's superior.
Just as Chen Yi had released this sound, Qi Ying, today's instructing second senior sister, turned her head towards Chen Yi, her eyes lighting up:
He achieved Mingjin? That's great, another training partner!
Qi Ying walked towards Chen Yi, sizing him up from head to toe, growing more satisfied the more she observed,
Well, not bad physique, and fairly solid muscle, he can definitely take a beating!
However, wherever Qi Ying went, old and new disciples alike bowed their heads and retreated, not daring to confront her,
Among the dozen disciples of the Iron Fist Sect who had achieved Mingjin, which one hadn't been beaten by second senior sister?
Seeing Chen Yi happily achieving Mingjin, Yun Hu, who was about to congratulate him, saw the long legs of the second senior sister approaching, his mouth twitched and he quickly retreated three meters,
When he had first achieved Mingjin, he was trained by the second senior sister for a full week, and ended up covered in bruises without a single part of the body spared....
"New guy, you've achieved the power, what's your name?"
A clear voice rang out, and Chen Yi opened his eyes from his perceptive state, his first sight being a pair of long legs,
Long, straight, and powerful. Looking up, the person was a girl around 20. She had to be at least 1.78 meters tall, charming and lively, especially her long legs, tight and firm under her tight training suit, full of power and beauty.
It was a pity that this girl wasn't a model, in his previous life she would undoubtedly have been a supermodel.
Instantly, Chen Yi remembered the titles attributed to the second senior sister - martial arts lunatic, crazily seeking challenge matches - he shivered inside, knowing he was targeted to be the punching bag,
He made a fist salute and said: "Chen Yi has the honour of meeting Second Senior Sister."
"Hmm, not bad physique, these muscles, you've been eating a lot of meat, right. Come, practice with your senior sister, let's see your real strength."
