Abundant

After making up his mind, Chu Kuang directly took out a Source Energy Potion and swallowed it. He then sat cross-legged in the martial arts room and began to circulate his Basic Internal Martial Arts.

The essence of internal martial arts cultivation is refining essence to generate qi, integrating one's own Blood Essence into the five internal organs, and then using the five organs to transform it into Mighty internal energy.

With the Source Energy Potion providing a high-quality Source Energy boost, Chu Kuang skipped the process of converting Blood Essence into internal energy and directly used Source Energy to cultivate internal energy in place of Blood Essence.

As a result, the Basic Internal Martial Arts, which would normally be unbearable after three cycles a day, felt like no pressure even after Chu Kuang cultivated seven or eight cycles with the boost of Source Energy.

It wasn't until the ninth cycle that Chu Kuang felt his Basic Internal Martial Arts subtly touching a bottleneck, with only one last step remaining before perfection.

So, he pressed on, cultivating for another three cycles. He exhausted the last bit of power from the Source Energy Potion before finally breaking through the bottleneck of his Basic Internal Martial Arts.

"Done!"

As his Basic Internal Martial Arts reached perfection, Chu Kuang's face lit up with joy, but he was then overcome by an extreme sense of hunger.

He quickly took out Nutrient Solution and swallowed it. After consuming five bottles, he finally felt his condition improve slightly.

"Refining essence to generate strength consumes too much."

He didn't stop. He only stopped consuming after downing ten bottles of Nutrient Solution consecutively.

It turned out that during the final moments of cultivating his Basic Internal Martial Arts, the energy from the Source Energy Potion was insufficient. He had to forcefully refine essence to generate strength, which consumed a large amount of Blood Essence.

If this were ancient times, without these Nutrient Solutions, he would likely need months of dietary supplements to recover from the depletion caused by refining essence to generate strength.

"This breakthrough has brought about a tremendous change in my strength."

Name: Chu Kuang Race: Human Life Level: 6.2 Realm: Body Tempering Perfection [Pebble Body], Viscera Refining Perfection [Abundant] Cultivation Method: Basic Internal Martial Arts [Perfection 0/3]

Looking at the data on the panel, Chu Kuang couldn't help but smile.

The Apprentice realm is divided into two stages: Body Tempering and Viscera Refining. Body Tempering includes Pebble Body, Mysterious Iron Body, Barbaric Bronze Body, and Adamantine Body.

Viscera Refining Perfection allows one to cultivate internal energy, and internal energy perfection is divided into four levels: Abundant, Mighty, Heavy Origin, and Primordial Chaos.

This is classified based on the quality of internal energy, much like the difference between the Mount Hua Heart Method and the Purple Cloud Internal Energy of the Mount Hua sect in ancient times.

Even if the former is cultivated to perfection, the internal energy cultivated can only be considered Abundant. The internal energy cultivated by the latter is astonishingly potent; once activated, it's like surging waves, which is the Mighty level of internal energy.

Even if Basic Internal Martial Arts are cultivated to perfection, the internal energy cultivated is only at the Abundant level. It has no special advantages over advanced internal martial arts, but for Chu Kuang, it's still a qualitative leap.

Next, as long as Chu Kuang refines the Nutrient Solution, his Life Level will quickly reach 6.5. Then, by combining his internal and external martial arts, he won't face any bottlenecks before his Life Level reaches level seven.

"Now that I've just broken through, it's the best time to cultivate."

Chu Kuang suppressed the excitement in his heart and immediately began cultivating his Basic Internal Martial Arts.

The Basic Internal Martial Arts at the perfection level are indeed astonishing. He only circulated it for two cycles before consuming all the Nutrient Solution in his body. An extreme sense of hunger once again filled his chest.

He quickly took a few bottles of Nutrient Solution and then checked his panel. He found that his Life Level had already reached 6.3.

"As long as the cultivation method and realm catch up, cultivating internal energy is indeed much faster than cultivating external martial arts."

Chu Kuang muttered to himself and immediately continued to cultivate his Basic Internal Martial Arts.

Internal martial arts cultivation is different from external martial arts. Cultivating external martial arts requires a process, but directly converting Nutrient Solution into internal energy is much faster.

Of course, this is also because of the Nutrient Solution. Without Nutrient Solution, relying solely on a strong physique to refine essence and generate strength, it would likely take decades to cultivate internal energy.

This is also why many ancient martial artists, after decades of cultivation, were still unable to master an internal martial art.

At this moment, Chu Kuang had plenty of Nutrient Solution and immediately began to seize the time to cultivate.

The next day, he directly took a day off from school and spent the entire day cultivating in seclusion at home. He only stopped cultivating in the afternoon after consuming the last bottle of Nutrient Solution.

Name: Chu Kuang Race: Human Life Level: 6.5 Realm: Body Tempering Perfection [Pebble Body], Viscera Refining Perfection [Abundant] Cultivation Method: Basic Internal Martial Arts...

Chu Kuang finished his cultivation and took a deep breath as he looked at the data on the panel.

"My strength has advanced by leaps and bounds, but unfortunately, I don't have enough Nutrient Solution."

Chu Kuang was a bit troubled. He had consumed two hundred bottles of Nutrient Solution just to reach Life Level 6.5, and as his cultivation level increases, his demand for Nutrient Solution will only grow.

Moreover, his internal martial arts are now perfected, and the condition for combining internal and external martial arts has been met. His Life Level will have no bottlenecks before level seven, but this will require at least three to four hundred bottles of Nutrient Solution.

"With my current strength, I should be able to try challenging the top 500. I'll aim to get into the top 500 first to get the interest-free loan and the ten thousand yuan bonus."

Chu Kuang muttered to himself and then directly entered the Tian Heng Star Realm to start the ranked matches.

With his Life Level of 6.5, playing ranked matches was naturally a crushing victory. He quickly achieved a four-win streak, and his rank directly entered 536th place.

"Four consecutive wins, my hidden score isn't low. The next match will likely pit me against someone in the top 500."

After defeating a formidable enemy once again, Chu Kuang had a strong premonition and clicked on the new ranked match.

This time, the matchmaking took two minutes before he successfully found an opponent, and he was finally teleported to a broken star relic.

This was a ruined star battlefield, with a low-gravity star arena at its center, surrounded by hundreds and thousands of star fragments and meteorites.

"Shattered Star."

Chu Kuang's brow furrowed slightly. This arena battlefield had extremely low gravity, which was actually more suitable for those who favored agility.

And in that instant, a beam of light descended from the void before him.

A slender man in white, holding a long sword, landed.

[Ye Shuanghen]

[School: Tian Heng Third Middle School]

[Rank: 500]

[Wins 216: Losses 67]

[Win Rate: 69%]

"Chu Kuang."

Ye Shuanghen looked up at Chu Kuang, a smile in his eyes, and said, "I've noticed you for a while. You've managed to get four consecutive wins today, and none of them were too difficult. You should have no problem breaking into the top 500."

"It's a shame this Shattered Star isn't very friendly to you. I'm afraid you won't be able to pass this stage."

Chu Kuang smiled and flicked his spear, saying, "We haven't fought yet, so it's too early to claim victory."

"Hahaha, then let's fight!"

Ye Shuanghen let out a hearty laugh, his white robes fluttering. He lightly tapped the star arena with his toes, his body moving like flowing clouds, darting left and right, and in an instant, he was in front of Chu Kuang.

"Flowing Cloud Willow Shadow?"

Chu Kuang's pupils constricted slightly as he recognized the origin of this movement technique. Instantly, his spear shot out like a long dragon, drawing several golden slashes towards Ye Shuanghen. This was the opening move of the Gold-Splitting Spear – Seven Stars Splitting Moon.
