Jade Bone Achieved

"Lin Fan Bro, Lin Fan Bro!"

That day, just as Lin Fan was preparing to enter the Back Mountain Forest to search for spiritual medicine, a delicate voice suddenly drifted over from afar.

Soon, Qing Tan came running over like a butterfly, her little face flushed red and filled with delight.

Lin Fan's heart stirred, and he asked with a smile, "Seeing how happy you are, don't tell me you've cultivated Yuan Power?"

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to guess it, Lin Fan Bro."

Qing Tan nodded. "That's right. I've cultivated Yuan Power, and I've even reached the Body Tempering Sixth Level."

As she spoke, she held out her jade-like palm. After a brief pause, a faint glow began to flicker over it.

Lin Fan rubbed Qing Tan's head and praised her, "As expected of my future wife. Your cultivation talent is truly impressive!"

"Lin Fan Bro!"

Hearing what Lin Fan called her, Qing Tan could not help but blush shyly.

"Haha!"

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Keep up the good work. I'm going to the Back Mountain Forest to see if I can find some spiritual medicine!"

Qing Tan looked at Lin Fan with her beautiful eyes. "Lin Fan Bro, let me go with you!"

However, Lin Fan shook his head. "No. Your task right now is to cultivate properly."

"Oh, I understand."

Lin Fan's refusal left Qing Tan somewhat disappointed.

After leaving the Lin Family, Lin Fan entered the forest alone.

Although spiritual medicine could not allow his cultivation to break through to the Earthly Yuan Realm,

the reason Lin Fan was searching for spiritual medicine this time was not to break through in cultivation.

The "Void Body Refining Art" was not merely a cultivation method. As its name suggested, it also included body-refining techniques.

This body-refining art was divided into five levels.

They were Ice Skin, Jade Bone, Silver Blood, Golden Pupils, and Dao Body.

Among them, the first three levels focused on tempering one's body. They were somewhat similar to this world's Body Tempering Realm, but far more powerful.

The fourth level, Golden Pupils, was actually a divine eye technique.

As for the final Dao Body, it could even alter a person's physique, making them better suited for cultivation.

Now that Lin Fan could not break through in cultivation, he turned his attention to cultivating his physical body.

As long as his body was strong enough, both his overall strength and combat power would increase greatly.

Since the Body Tempering Realm already strengthened the body, after cultivating the "Void Body Refining Art," Lin Fan had already stepped into the Ice Skin level.

This made his current physical strength far surpass that of ordinary Body Tempering Realm cultivators.

Upon entering the forest, Lin Fan relied on his powerful perception to search continuously through its depths.

And if he wanted to obtain spiritual medicine, conflict with the beasts inside was inevitable.

However, these beasts were no match for Lin Fan.

For a time, many of the forest's beasts were either severely injured or killed by Lin Fan.

By the time Lin Fan left the forest at dusk, he had found one Third Grade Spiritual Medicine, three Second Grade Spiritual Medicines, and eight First Grade Spiritual Medicines.

It was only because he was powerful and possessed perception far beyond that of ordinary people.

Otherwise, no one else could possibly have obtained so much spiritual medicine.

After returning home, Lin Fan shut his door and set up another Spirit Stealing Array.

Then, he placed all the spiritual medicine he had obtained into the array, intending to use it to break through in body refinement.

It was not that Lin Fan was selfish and unwilling to give Qing Tan any spiritual medicine.

The main reason was that Qing Tan possessed the Calamity Demon Physique. Only yin-attributed spiritual medicine would be useful to her.

And yin-attributed spiritual medicine was exceedingly rare. Lin Fan had not encountered a single one.

Buzz!

As Lin Fan activated the array, the energy contained within the spiritual medicine surged wildly toward him at the center of the array like floodwaters bursting through a dam.

At that moment, Lin Fan's body seemed to transform into a black hole. He accepted all that energy without hesitation, drawing it all into his body like the sea receiving a hundred rivers.

Even with Lin Fan's powerful physique and meridians far tougher than those of ordinary people, he still felt as if his body were about to burst apart.

Fortunately, the "Void Body Refining Art" refined energy at an extremely terrifying speed. That energy was quickly refined by Lin Fan and used to strengthen his skin, flesh, bones, and even his internal organs.

As Lin Fan continued absorbing it, a faint radiance began to emanate from the surface of his skin.

This signified that Lin Fan had cultivated Ice Skin to perfection. As he continued cultivating, the bones within his body began expelling impurities, becoming crystal-clear and even taking on traces of jade-colored luster.

At this moment, Lin Fan had finally entered the Jade Bone level.

However, cultivating the physical body required no small amount of energy as well. This spiritual medicine had only barely allowed Lin Fan to enter Jade Bone, and he could not continue cultivating any further.

For the next period of time, Lin Fan searched the forest for spiritual medicine every day, then used it to cultivate his body at night.

This continued for half a month before he finally cultivated Jade Bone to perfection.

Now, every bone in his body was like the finest jade—crystal-clear, containing spiritual essence within. An unfathomable transformation had also begun to unfold within his marrow.

After forming Jade Bone, Lin Fan had a feeling that even if his cultivation remained at the Body Tempering Ninth Layer, he could still contend with the Earthly Yuan Realm.

After achieving Jade Bone, Lin Fan stopped cultivating his physical body.

After all, the further one progressed, the more immense the required energy became.

After searching for so many days, Lin Fan had already stripped the forest of nearly all its spiritual medicine.

There might still be spiritual medicine in certain places, but it would not be enough for him to continue breaking through.

Meanwhile,

after half a month of cultivation, Qing Tan had finally broken through to the Earthly Yuan Realm.

Because Qing Tan needed to absorb the Yin Fiend Qi between heaven and earth to cultivate,

the outbreaks of cold energy within her body were becoming increasingly frequent.

In the past, Qing Tan only suffered an outbreak once a month.

Now, she had suffered two outbreaks within half a month.

Lin Fan had used a secret technique to condense the Yin Fiend Qi from both outbreaks into a solid state.

Once he accumulated some more Yin Fiend Qi, he would break through to the Earthly Yuan Realm in one go.
