Special Constitution!

"Eh, Brother Wang Ping, your cultivation..." Chi Feng was somewhat stunned.

He could sense that compared to the Wang Ping from not long ago, the current Wang Ping's blood energy had increased by far more than just a little.

The intensity of this aura was even stronger than his own.

And right now, he was at Skin Training Realm late stage.

That meant Brother Wang Ping's cultivation had reached Skin Training Realm peak.

This was truly unbelievable.

After all, Brother Wang Ping had still been an ordinary person before, not even at Muscle Training realm.

"My constitution is special—I can raise my cultivation by absorbing spirit stones."

After thinking it over, Wang Ping gave this answer.

His future cultivation speed would definitely be astonishing, so he had to come up with a suitable excuse.

At the same time, Wang Ping could use this reason to ask the Village Chief for more spirit stones.

Otherwise, relying on himself alone, it would be hard to get spirit stones.

Without spirit stones, he couldn't simulate.

"Special constitution? I've heard Grandpa say that there are many special constitutions in this world, each with various powers. For example, the Fire Spirit Body can speed up cultivation when practicing Fire-Attribute Arts and even boost combat strength."

Chi Feng looked at Wang Ping with some envy as he spoke.

"Brother Wang Ping having a special constitution is really great. If I had a spirit body too, my cultivation speed would definitely be fast."

"Special constitutions are innate—you can't force them."

Wang Ping smiled faintly, walked over, and ruffled Chi Feng's hair.

"That's not necessarily true." Chi Feng's big black eyes were full of longing as he said, "Grandpa said some spirit bodies aren't innate—they come from powerful cultivators who changed their own constitutions and passed them down. That's why these strong cultivators' families are called the Spirit Clan—mysterious and powerful."

Hearing this, Wang Ping was surprised.

Powerful cultivators could actually change their own constitutions, create spirit bodies, and even pass them down?

The cultivation system of this world was truly fascinating.

"Too bad none of my ancestors were that strong." Chi Feng muttered, clenching his fists. "But I'm definitely going to become that kind of strong cultivator and spawn a powerful Spirit Clan!"

"Ambitious—I believe you can do it." Wang Ping smiled and walked outside. "Alright, let's go eat."

"Mm!" Hearing this, Chi Feng quickly followed.

When the two arrived at the communal meal, many people noticed them.

Instantly, the villagers looked at Wang Ping, all showing stunned expressions.

"Wang Ping, boy, your cultivation..." Chi Hu was somewhat uncertain.

The Village Chief also found it hard to stay calm. After all, Wang Ping had been an ordinary person before.

"My constitution is special—I can devour spirit stones to raise my cultivation." Wang Ping repeated the same line.

"Special constitution?" Hearing this, everyone in Chi Village was shocked. "Being able to devour spirit stones to raise cultivation—what kind of special constitution is that? It's way too powerful."

"Special constitution, huh..." The Village Chief frowned slightly, murmured, then gave Wang Ping a deep look.

No wonder Wang Ping had asked him for spirit stones—so he had a special constitution.

But there were contradictions here.

If Wang Ping had a special constitution, he should have become a strong cultivator long ago, not been a weak ordinary person before.

And the idea that Wang Ping's family couldn't afford spirit stones didn't hold up either.

Because Wang Ping's guards could protect him deep into Blackwind Forest, meaning they were at least at Postnatal Realm, and there were quite a few of them—otherwise, they couldn't have made it here.

Having Postnatal Realm martial artists as guards but being unable to produce spirit stones was very contradictory.

Still, everyone had their secrets, and the Village Chief had no intention of probing Wang Ping's.

After all, Wang Ping bore no hostility toward Chi Village—in fact, he showed great goodwill—and that was enough.

"Not bad—boundless prospects." The Village Chief patted Wang Ping on the shoulder and spoke.

Wang Ping knew the Village Chief had sensed something off, but having absorbed over a decade of life experience, he no longer felt awkward or nervous. He just smiled and said, "Village Chief, could I trouble you for some more spirit stones? I'd like to raise my cultivation a bit faster."

"Alright." The Village Chief nodded. "Later, I'll give you another hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones. For now, let's eat first."

"Thank you, Village Chief."

Wang Ping cupped his hands slightly in gratitude.

He knew that Chi Village was hiding from the Li Family in Blackwind Forest and didn't have much of a spirit stone reserve.

Because Spirit Stone Mines were extremely precious, mostly controlled by the Great Xia Kingdom, or by large families and sect forces.

Very few spirit stones circulated on the market, and trading gold or silver for them was difficult.

Even if you managed to trade, it would draw attention.

That didn't fit Chi Village's low-key style.

Therefore, the cultivation resources of Chi Village were basically obtained by hunting demon beasts, eating their meat, and processing their inner cores.

The Village Chief had given him ten Low-Grade Spirit Stones before.

Now, not only did he not probe into Wang Ping's secrets, but he generously offered another hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones—this was kindness to the extreme.

Wang Ping engraved this debt of gratitude in his heart and vowed to save everyone in Chi Village.

"You're practically Chi Village's benefactor, no need to thank me." The Village Chief patted Wang Ping on the shoulder and said, "But remember, even if you join some sect or clan later, don't let your Special Constitution be exposed easily. In this world, people's hearts are hard to fathom."

"I know."

Wang Ping nodded seriously.

As a Transmigrator, he understood this truth better than anyone.

"Good that you know." The Village Chief nodded. "Alright, let's eat."

"Yeah." Wang Ping smiled and followed.

Then, amid the warm and admiring gazes of the Chi Village folk, Wang Ping began to eat and drink heartily.

Because his cultivation had advanced, he ate even more—finally able to feast to his heart's content.

After the meal, the Village Chief gave Wang Ping a hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

What's more, to make it easier for him to carry, he directly gifted him a low-grade Storage Ring.

"Village Chief, this Storage Ring must be very precious. I can't accept it."

Wang Ping was both surprised and delighted, but he quickly came to his senses and tried to decline.

"A Storage Ring is indeed very precious—only a few in the Innate Realm are qualified to own one. But you'll be traveling outside, and you need it more than we do."

The Village Chief said with a serious expression.

"Wang Ping, don't refuse. Consider this my investment in you. When you grow strong, please look after Chi Village."

He paused, then sighed as he spoke again.

Hearing this, Wang Ping was momentarily stunned, then no longer declined. He took the Storage Ring and said solemnly, "As long as I live, Chi Village will never come to harm."

"Well said." The Village Chief was deeply gratified.

Wang Ping's origins were mysterious, his constitution special—he had the potential to step into the Transcendent Realm beyond the Spirit Origin Realm.

Once Wang Ping grew strong, they wouldn't have to cower in this dangerous Blackwind Forest anymore.
