Fleshing Out

I silently chanted to open the panel: Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique (Beginner 37/200).

Looking at the 12 points of progress displayed, just taking Tonic alone achieved the effect of taking Tonic and Bear Gall previously. Luo Yi was very satisfied with the effect of the Tonic he concocted!

He took out a piece of Bear Gall and swallowed it, preparing to verify how much progress he could gain each time he practiced after changing his Tonic.

After swallowing the Bear Gall, he practiced for over forty minutes, relying on the medicinal effect of the Bear Gall, and the heat flow in his abdomen dissipated.

Knowing his body had reached its limit, Luo Yi stopped practicing.

Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique (Beginner 43/200)

6 points, plus the previous 12 points, for a total of 18 points.

From now on, taking Bear Gall and Tonic every morning and evening, he could gain at least 35 points of progress per day. Looking at the panel, he still needed 156 points of progress. He could successfully enter the Body Refining Realm within five days at most.

Thinking of this, Luo Yi felt an immense surge of heroism.

At this time, in a room in the main hall of the Green Wolf Gang, a large number of Green Wolf Gang core members were seated around.

Sitting in the main seat was an elder with frost-white hair and cruel, bloodthirsty eyes. Although he wore coarse linen clothes, it couldn't hide the mountain-like silhouette of his shoulders and back.

This person was the gang leader of the Green Wolf Gang, "Wolf Howl". As early as twenty years ago, Wolf Howl was already a master of the Flesh Refining stage. Later, due to conflicts with other gangs in Yunlu County, he was ambushed and injured, damaging his foundation. Since then, Wolf Howl had been stuck in the Body Refining Realm, with no further progress in his martial arts.

Even without further progress, a master of the Flesh Refining stage Martial Artist could basically walk sideways in a small place like Yunlu County, as long as they didn't provoke anyone from the Four Great Clans in the inner city.

"Quiet! Everyone, state your problems one by one."

Wolf Howl, who was resting with his eyes closed, interrupted the constant bickering of his subordinates.

"Reporting to the Gang Leader, subordinates have reported that last night, there were sounds of intense fighting from the courtyard where Deputy Gang Leader Mother Wolf and Little Wolf Head resided. This morning, when the brothers entered the courtyard to investigate, they found it empty. Only in the Deputy Gang Leader's room were traces of a fight found."

"Now that both of them are missing, we request the Gang Leader to quickly select new Deputy Gang Leaders for the sake of the gang's development."

Wolf Howl, sitting in the main seat, expected his subordinates to propose finding the killer and avenging the two. Instead, they wanted to elect a new deputy gang leader.

Looking at the greed and desire in everyone's eyes below, if he didn't agree, these people might try to test his skills as the gang leader.

Wolf Howl thought for a moment and said:

"Whoever among the Hall Masters present can be the first to find the killer who murdered Mother Wolf and Little Wolf Head will be the new Deputy Gang Leader of our Green Wolf Gang."

After speaking, without giving the crowd below a chance to object, Wolf Howl walked towards the back hall of the headquarters.

The remaining Hall Masters of the Green Wolf Gang were left in the room, looking at each other.

The Hall Masters present were all smart people. They knew that whoever could deal with Mother Wolf must be at least a master of the Flesh Refining Realm. The most they could be was Martial Artist of the Great Perfection of Skin Refining stage, far from being opponents of such a fierce person.

"Alas, the Gang Leader is old and lacks his former spirit," one Hall Master said, turning to leave. The other Hall Masters, hearing this, showed strange looks in their eyes and also walked out the door.

Time passed in this peaceful life for four days.

On the fifth morning, just as dawn was breaking.

Luo Yi got out of bed. Looking at the Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique on the panel, which was only five points away from leveling up, he was already impatient.

He went to the kitchen, started brewing the Tonic, and swallowed the last piece of Bear Gall.

Luo Yi walked under the large banyan tree in the courtyard, struck a pose for the Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique, and began to practice!

"It's done!" Feeling the changes in his body, Luo Yi showed a look of joy.

"Boom!" In an instant, a pain several times greater than that of the Skin Refining Realm struck him.

"Ah!" Luo Yi felt a burning fire rising within his body, madly burning his flesh and blood.

Unlike the Skin Refining, which only caused skin pain, Luo Yi now felt his entire flesh and blood being roasted over a fire, as if on a barbecue.

Streams of scorching energy continuously circulated through the flesh and blood of his entire body, finally gathering in the Dantian below the navel in the lower abdomen.

Feeling the heat flow within his body and the location where it finally flowed, could this be the "Qi and Blood Force" and "Dantian" recorded in the Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique?

As the qi and blood continuously poured into the Dantian, Luo Yi's entire body emitted scorching hot steam, like a red-hot iron brand, constantly giving off mist.

Gradually, Luo Yi got used to this feeling. The flesh and blood within his body went from painful to comfortable.

"Mmm," "Mmm," "Mmm." Luo Yi couldn't help but let out strange sounds of comfort.

The sweat on his body poured down like he was without an umbrella in heavy rain, drenching his clothes, which clung tightly to his body, revealing his strong physique and the faintly visible eight-pack abs on his abdomen.

The hot flow continuously passed through various parts of his body. Luo Yi felt that the parts through which the hot flow passed: his flesh and blood were like they were born anew, filled with immense power.

After a quarter of an hour, the heat flow within his body gradually dissipated. Luo Yi, covered in sweat, took a deep breath.

Eager to verify his guess, he silently chanted to open the panel:

Host: Luo Yi Age: 16 Realm: Flesh Refining (Beginner) Skills: Basic Archery (Great Perfection 270/400), Fierce Tiger Skin Refining Technique (Perfect), Introduction to Poisons (Perfect), Mantis Skin Refining Technique (Perfect), Iron Head Skin Refining Technique (Perfect) Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique (Beginner 1/300)

Attributes: Immune to Poisons, Fierce Tiger Back, Mantis Legs, Iron Brain

Energy Points: 16

Root Bone: Superior

"Awesome!" Looking at the "Meat Refining: Beginner" realm displayed on the panel, Luo Yi couldn't help but shout.

It had only been a little over a month since he transmigrated to this world, and Luo Yi had already gone from a scrawny book boy to a "Body Refining Realm" Martial Artist. He couldn't help but feel a surge of self-satisfaction.

Forcing down the excitement in his heart, Luo Yi walked to the stone table under the large banyan tree.

He bent down, cupped his hands under the stone tabletop, and with a relaxed exertion of his arm, easily lifted the thousand-jin stone table over his head.

"So easy?" He felt like he had only used five-tenths of his strength to lift the stone table, and Luo Yi was shocked by his current power.

Afterward, he found a Dao to verify his defense and tested his improved speed in the courtyard.

Finally, he concluded that his strength had more than doubled after reaching the "Meat Refining" realm.

After testing his current strength, Luo Yi wanted to see how much progress he could make by completing a full round of the "Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique" after its improvement.

'Pounce', 'Lift', 'Ram', 'Stomp'.

A prompt popped up: "Berserk Bear Flesh Refining Technique" progress +1.

Completing all the moves in one go increased the progress by one point. It wasn't too slow.

At the current pace, he could upgrade again in less than half a month.
