Leaving

After arriving in the Mist Mountain Realm, also known as the World Within the Bell, Wang Chen had not only lost all his cultivation, but even the Cultivation Panel, that heaven-defying cheat, had been sealed away along with it. It had gone from a deluxe high-end version to a shriveled beggar's edition.

Although he could still grind skill experience, the most important Heavenly Merit and Human Virtue System was gone.

In its place, he now had a Vitality and Blood value.

And these Vitality and Blood points were undoubtedly gained by killing people—or, more precisely, by slaying Martial Artists.

After returning home, Wang Chen analyzed and compared the results, concluding that the number of points should be directly proportional to the slain person's cultivation realm.

A first-tier Skin Tempering Martial Artist gave 1 Vitality and Blood point, while a second-tier Flesh Tempering Martial Artist gave 10.

That made things very straightforward.

The question was, what exactly were Vitality and Blood points for?

Wang Chen tried using them to Add Points to his cultivation technique, but there was no response at all.

In other words, 1 Vitality and Blood point could add 1 point of skill experience.

It was the same no matter how many points he added.

The result left Wang Chen somewhat disappointed. Back then,
