Chapter 77: Marrow Cleansing
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Looking at the fourth-grade marrow cleansing pill, Li Ming placed it in his mouth and swallowed it!
As the medicinal pill entered his body, it instantly diffused throughout his body. As it spread, the medicinal effects of the pill acted on every inch of his body!
He experienced marrow cleansing, a process by which the impurities in his body were removed, allowing his entire body to sublimate.
Humans had one of the weakest bodies in this world. It could simply not be compared to the bodies of demonic beasts and demons.
The very purpose of cultivation was to allow cultivators to break free from the shackles of their body.
Qi refinement, foundation establishment, core formation, nascent soul. With every step, qi cultivators would further abandon their physical bodies.
However, the same could not be said for body cultivators.
Body cultivation focused on the fleshly body and used their physical body as the foundation of their cultivation.
It was by constantly strengthening and improving their body that they increased their strength.
What Li Ming needed to do right now was to break the normal limits of his body.
Previously, reaching the body cultivation foundation establishment realm only allowed his body to reach the limits of a mortal body.
And now, the fourth level of the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art was already pushing past the limits of what a mortal physical body should be capable of.
Thus, he needed to improve.
He needed to refine his physical body into something even stronger!
This was his true goal!
He strived to reach the level of undying and indestructible!
This was the ultimate goal of Li Ming’s body cultivation!
Marrow cleansing was a step in that direction.
As the medicinal effects continued to act on his body, a feeling as if countless ants were gnawing on him instantly filled his senses!
He felt as if he was being eaten inside out.
The feeling even permeated through his internal organs!
It felt as if his guts were being torn to shreds!
This pain was far more excruciating than anything he had ever felt; it was even more excruciating than when he had his body be tempered by heavenly fire!
This pain was the greatest pain that Li Ming had ever felt since he started cultivating his body!
Just this point alone was enough to show just how dangerous marrow cleansing was.
Even if mortals were able to obtain marrow cleansing pills, it would clearly not be easy for them to withstand such pain.
The piercing pain had caused Li Ming great suffering!
Even though he had been training his body for many years and was already used to feeling pain throughout his body, the torture of cleansing his bone marrows was an entirely new pain.
The entire process repeated itself again and again inside Li Ming’s body.
Two hours later.
The pain in his body slowly subsided and turned into a clear stream, slowly transforming into a feeling of comfort.
It was as if his internal organs had been reborn, as if every inch of his flesh and blood had upgraded.
Li Ming could feel that his body seemed to have become much lighter.
His body felt completely different from before.
He was very surprised by this feeling.
Regardless, this feeling signified that the limits of his physical body had been hrnlzøn I
At this moment, Li Ming had surpassed the limits of the human body!
He had reached another level!
Feeling out his new body, Li Ming locked his eyes on the ruins in front of him. He lifted his feet and charged forward!
His speed was actually three times faster than what he could have achieved beforehand even without using the Wind Lightning Steps!
Then, he clenched his fist and launched a punch!
Boom!
The moment he punched out, the stone pillar in front of him shattered into countless specks of dust!
When he punched out, the surrounding stones were actually forcefully shattered by the wind brought forth!
This was merely an ordinary punch.
He did not use any martial skills or spiritual qi. Despite that, he already displayed such shocking strength by relying solely on his body!
Seeing the results, Li Ming was very satisfied.
This was great news for Li Ming.
The Golden Crow Body Tempering Art would now be able to guide him to bring his body even further.
He had made ample preparations for his breakthrough to the late stage of the foundation establishment realm.
But just as he was thinking about the steps he would take next, the seventh consecrator reappeared.
When the seventh consecrator reappeared and looked at Li Ming, his eyes were filled with surprise.
“To be able to cultivate your body to such a level, it seems that you are indeed talented in body cultivation.”
“However, you cannot neglect your qi cultivation.”
The seventh consecrator was clearly shocked after seeing the qualitative change that Li Ming’s body had undergone in the short time he was gone.
It was very clear that this was change brought about by the fourth-grade marrow cleansing pill from before.
The marrow cleansing pill also brought agonizing pain, and it was generally only someone like Li Ming, who was a body cultivator, that could endure such pain.
At this moment, the seventh consecrator actually came to look forward to what level Li Ming could reach in body cultivation.
While he was thinking this, Li Ming also walked forward.
“I understand.”
“Naturally, I will not delay my qi cultivation.”
“Seventh consecrator, have you brought the medicinal herbs?”
Li Ming did not waste any time. Although in the eyes of outsiders, body cultivation was a waste of time and only served to delay qi cultivation, in Li Ming’s eyes, body cultivation was his foundation. If he had not cultivated his body, could he have relied on his qi cultivation talent? Had he done so, he would have long since been chased out of the sect.
He would not have been able to reach the point he had today.
“I have them right here. I’ll come and retrieve the pill in three days.” The seventh consecrator directly left after saying that.
Only the medicinal ingredients and the pill formula were left behind.
“Fourth-grade medicinal pill, profound spirit pill?”
Li Ming carefully examined the pill formula.
After confirming that the medicinal ingredients he had were correct, he immediately began refining the pill.
While his last furnace did blow up, fortunately, the seventh consecrator brought him a new furnace when he came to visit this time. Moreover, the quality was much better than that of his last furnace.
He refined according to the Four Symbols Pill Refining Technique.
With the four symbols as the main directions, he set up a true fire in the cauldron and began to refine the pill.
This Four Symbols Pill Refining Technique ingeniously borrowed the terrain to construct an illusory heaven and earth cauldron to refine pills.
In this way, when refining pills, the pills would be able to absorb pure heaven and earth spiritual qi, making it easier for them to be refined successfully.
Coupled with the entry that Li Ming already had, his success rate in refining pills was exceptionally high.
With the four symbols creating an illusory heaven and earth cauldron, Li Ming felt much more assured in being able to refine the profound spirit pill.
The extraction of the medicinal ingredients went very smoothly. However, the fusion, condensation, and refinement of the pill would take a bit longer to complete.
With the experience of refining over 300 recovery pills and the marrow cleansing pill, Li Ming had become much more familiar with the process of refining pills.
Therefore, Li Ming refined the profound spirit pill with greater confidence.
While he was refining, Li Ming discovered that his other entries, besides the pill refining entry, were also helping him out.
They allowed him to better focus on the task at hand, allowing him to complete it with a greater chance of success.
His control over his flames and the integration of medicinal essence had all been significantly improved.
After two hours, Li Ming sat in front of the furnace.
Due to the influence of the Four Symbols Pill Refining Technique, a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual qi had gathered in his surroundings.
The spiritual qi kept circling around him.
While the pill was absorbing the spiritual qi, Li Ming’s body also absorbed some of it on its own.
Ever since his physical body had broken through its limits, his body could automatically absorb spiritual qi.
Now that his body could absorb spiritual energy on its own, not only could it increase his qi cultivation, but the spiritual qi also had a certain tempering effect on his body!
Besides, the pill refining process also helped with tempering his body with the high temperatures that were exhibited by the furnace while pills were being refined in it, especially since he was using golden crow true fire to refine pills!
