Nine Times the Strength Value

Chen Lie nodded when he saw the look Feng Shuangshuang was giving him.

"Why?" Chen Xingyao curiously.

Feng Shuangshuang said, "Your brother is the top student in the Genius Training Camp. He can charge each student in the camp two thousand points. In just two months, he has already collected more than one million points."

"A million points? That's equivalent to billions of Star Dollar!" Chen Xingyao exclaimed in surprise.

"It can be converted into billions of Star Dollar, but it's easy to convert points into Star Dollar, but it's very difficult to convert Star Dollar into points."

Because most of the martial arts resources in the Trading Market cannot be bought with Star Dollar.

Chen Xingyao never dreamed that her brother would be so wealthy now.

A fortune of billions of Star Dollar is something that even a wealthy family on Blue Star couldn't achieve in hundreds of years.

"Sister Shuangshuang, what's your Blood Qi Value now? Are you almost ready to join the Provincial Youth Genius Group?"

Feng Shuangshuang said awkwardly, "Me? I'm still far from good enough—"

Chen Liedao, "Shuangshuang, have you encountered any difficulties in your martial arts practice recently? Do you need any guidance from me?"

"I haven't encountered this yet."

Although she had already made up her mind to humbly learn martial arts from Chen Lie, Feng Shuangshuang still felt a little embarrassed in front of Chen Xingyao.

Meanwhile, she was also thinking to herself, "Chen Xingyao calls me 'Sister Shuangshuang,' but Chen Lie, just because of his martial arts achievements, calls me by my full name. Isn't that incredibly disrespectful to an elder like me?"

Chen Lie nodded and hummed in agreement. He still had quite a bit of affection for his cousin, Feng Shuangshuang.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that Feng Shuangshuang was willing to spend a month tutoring him in martial arts during her rapid rise in strength in her previous life is something that not everyone can do.

Even among the closest cousins, very few can do this.

At this moment, the shop staff returned to the location.

"Sir, of the Martial Dao Rare Treasure you just listed, we only have five in stock."

As he spoke, the staff laid out the five Martial Dao Rare Treasure in a row on the counter.

Chen Lie nodded and said, "I'll take them all. Wrap them up."

"OK!"

Upon hearing this, the staff member immediately packed up the five martial arts items on the counter.

Chen Lie glanced at Feng Shuangshuang and said, "You've come to the Trading Market, so you must want to buy resources."

Tell me, what resources do you need?

"I'll save up my points and buy it myself," Feng Shuangshuang whispered.

"My points are now in the millions, I don't care about your pittance, just tell me."

"That--that--"

After hesitating for a moment, Feng Shuangshuang still told Chen Lie the Spirit Medicine she needed.

What Feng Shuangshuang needs is a Spirit Medicine that is over four hundred years old and can enhance the purity of her qi and blood.

After hearing this, Chen Lie immediately asked the shop staff for one 400-year-old Spirit Medicine to improve the purity of Qi and blood, and one 400-year-old Spirit Medicine to improve the strength of Qi and blood.

At the final checkout, I had a total of 250,000 points.

As they exited the shop, Feng Shuangshuang said in an almost inaudible voice, "I'll return these points to you later."

C

Chen Lie simply smiled and did not reply.

"Shuangshuang, it's been so long since you've visited my home. Why don't you come over today?"

Feng Shuangshuang shook her head and said, "I'm currently in the Genius Training Camp. During the training period, I can't just go out whenever I want."

Chen Xingyao could only say, "Alright then!"

After saying goodbye to Feng Shuangshuang, Chen Lie walked out of the Trading Market, Chen Lie Communicator suddenly rang.

He took out his Communicator and glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number, but he still chose to answer.

"Hello, Chen Lie, I am a staff member of the Martial Artist Association. The two 800-year-old Spirit Medicine you requested to reserve have been found. You can pick them up at the Martial Artist Association's resource search area now."

"Okay, I understand."

After receiving the call, Chen Lie immediately went to the Martial Artist Association to collect two 800-year-old Spirit Medicine.

It was already evening when I got home.

Chen Lie gave Chen Xingyao five rare Martial Dao Rare Treasure and said, "Take these to the Dongchuan Martial Arts Hall tomorrow, and I will guide you through the initial stages of the Green Phoenix Body Refining Method."

"Okay!"

Chen Xingyao accepted the Martial Dao Rare Treasure and nodded in agreement.

"There are still 100 jin of Spirit Nourishing Flower in the Practice Room. You can use them whenever you need them when cultivating the <Lingguang Divine Refining Chapter>."

"I see."

Chen Xingyao didn't say anything more about her gratitude. Her brother had been so considerate; any words she could muster seemed inadequate.

After explaining things to Chen Xingyao, Chen Lie returned to his room and placed the two 800-Year Spirit Medicine together with the two Thousand-Year Spirit Medicine he had brought from Cloud River Province.

"Two 800-year-old Spirit Medicine and two Thousand-Year Spirit Medicine should be enough for me to cultivate the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique> to a minor success, break through the thousand-calorie mark in my qi and blood, possess Myriad Jun Great Strength, and step into the first extreme Ultimate Realm of the Blood-Qi Stage, Marrow Refining Like Mercury Blood-Qi Like Slurry."

Looking at the four Spirit Medicine, Chen Lie murmured.

Early the next morning, Chen Lie took two 800-year-old Spirit Medicine and went to the Dongchuan Martial Arts Hall with his sister Chen Xingyao.

Upon arriving at the third floor of the Dongchuan Martial Arts Hall, Chen Lie approached the front desk and told the staff, "Prepare two medicinal bath rooms for me, and I need two servings of the highest-grade Spirit Liquid medicinal bath."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The staff at the Martial Arts Hall's front desk immediately prepared the medicinal bath room and bath solution for the rest of the staff.

After waiting for about half an hour, a staff member came to Chen Lie and said, "Sir, the medicinal bath is ready. Please follow me."

Chen Lie grunted in agreement and followed the staff to the medicinal bath room.

"Sir, the two medicinal bath rooms are adjacent; the other medicinal bath room is right next door."

Chen Lie glanced at the medicinal bath room, then went to the wooden tub in the middle of the room, touched the medicinal bath Spirit Liquid, and said to the staff, "You can leave now. Okay, please feel free to call us if you need anything."

After finishing speaking, the staff member left the medicinal bath room.

After the staff left, Chen Lie turned back to Chen Xingyao: "Yaoyao, come here."

Chen Xingyao quickly went over, looking like he was about to be lectured.

"I have been teaching you the Green Phoenix Body Refining Method for a while now, and you must be familiar with its contents."

These rare Martial Dao Rare Treasure can be eaten raw.

After finishing the raw food, immediately remove your clothes, soak in a medicinal bath, and then practice the introductory chapter of the <Green Phoenix Body Refining Method>.

Chen Xingyao curiously, "Why do we need to take a medicinal bath?"

Chen Lie explained, "Because your skin and flesh are fragile, cultivating the Green Phoenix Body Refining Method can raise your physique to the level of a young Starry Sky Exotic Beast Green Phoenix celestial beast, allowing you to absorb energy and strengthen yourself."

"But you don't have the physique of Green Phoenix, and you can't withstand such a rapid rate of energy absorption. If you don't soak in the medicinal bath, it will damage your body and cause an discomfort as if you're being burned alive."

"I see." Chen Xingyao nodded.

"Yes, that's roughly how you begin the <Green Phoenix Body Refining Method>. The initial training will cause intense pain, so you must endure it. Practice on your own now. I'm going next door."

Goodbye, brother!

Chen Xingyao escorted Chen Lie out of the medicinal bath room, then locked the door from the inside.

They went to the table in the medicinal bath room and unpacked the Martial Dao Rare Treasure treasures.

"Eat it raw?"

On Blue Star, even if a young boy or girl consuming a Spirit Medicine that has been stored for decades, it must be prepared into Spirit Herb Beast Meat Meal by Dining Workshop, precisely to prevent the Spirit Medicine's energy from being too potent and damaging to their bodies.

And she actually intends to eat all these rare Martial Dao Rare Treasure?

However, she now firmly believes her brother's words.

So she picked up the Martial Dao Rare Treasure and ate it raw.

Meanwhile, Chen Lie went into the adjacent medicinal bath room and locked the door.

Arriving at the table in the medicinal bath room, Chen Lie took out two 800-year-old Spirit Medicine and began to consume them.

Before long, Chen Lie had eaten the two 800-year-old Spirit Medicine.

Soon, Chen Lie felt a burning sensation rising in his abdomen.

He immediately took off his clothes and jumped into the medicinal bath tub.

The <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique> quickly began to operate automatically, and the cells in Chen Lie's body transformed into a dragon, frantically devouring energy.

His blood and qi purity and strength increased at an incredible speed.

Soon, Chen Lie's Blood Qi Value reached a critical point, and he felt a stinging pain in his skin, as if it were about to crack.

The intense pain caused Chen Lie's brows to furrow.

The medicinal Spirit Liquid in the wooden tub was rapidly diluted, and the water level kept dropping.

After an unknown amount of time, the stinging sensation on Chen Lie's skin began to slowly subside, and the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique> also stopped operating.

Chen Lie felt that he had completely digested the two 800-year-old Spirit Medicine, so he got out of the medicinal bath tub and went to the adjacent bathroom to wash his body.

Feeling the lingering stinging sensation on his skin, Chen Lie couldn't help but say, "It seems I must complete the first stage of body tempering..."

"The Tough Skin Resilient Flesh."

I'm now very close to reaching the Ultimate Realm of Myriad Jun Great Strength; my frail body can no longer withstand such immense force.

After rinsing himself off, Chen Lie put on his clothes and went to the Blood Essence Detector to test his blood and qi.

As the blue light swept across, the Blood Essence Detector announced the results, "Beep, test complete, Blood Qi Value 841.74 calories."

After checking his Blood Qi Value, Chen Lie went to the Strength Value next to him.

Chen Lie delivered a powerful punch to the target representing his Strength Value.

A reading immediately appeared above the Strength Detector.

Strength Value: 7611.33 jun.

Chen Lie glanced at his strength value and muttered to himself, "I currently have nine times the Strength Value, and I'm only about 2,500 jun away from the Myriad Jun Great Strength jun."

Completing the body-refining process of building Tough Skin Resilient Flesh is of utmost urgency.

"However, the Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure used for body tempering are a problem--"

Suddenly, Chen Lie remembered the Gold Booklet that Ji Lingxuan had given him at the Eight Provinces Gathering.

It is said that by holding the Gold Booklet, one can exchange it for a martial arts resource of no more than 30 points at the Martial Artist Association in any province.

This Gold Booklet will then come in handy.

After leaving the medicinal bath room, Chen Lie noticed that Chen Xingyao's medicinal bath room next door was still closed, so he waited outside for a while.

About an hour later, the door to Chen Xingyao's medicinal bath room opened.

Upon seeing Chen Lie, Chen Xingyao immediately went up to him and said, "Brother, I have successfully mastered the <Green Phoenix Body Refining Method>. It was indeed extremely painful to practice."

"It's good that you've successfully entered the field. Your martial arts have improved so much; others can't even experience this kind of excruciating pain," Chen Lie said.

Chen Xingyao chuckled and said, "Do you know how much Blood Qi Value Strength Value I have right now?"

My Blood Qi Value 88 calories, Strength Value 450, which is five times my Strength Value.

Chen Lie grunted and said, "I'll teach you a secret technique later that can temporarily fake your Blood Qi Value to fool the instruments."

Remember, you must not reveal your true Strength Value to others.

At this stage, five times the Strength Value is definitely too much. In the future, depending on the environment, it's best to keep the Strength Value around four times.

"Okay, I understand." Chen Xingyao nodded.

When Chen Lie walked out of the Martial Arts Hall, it was already afternoon. He had intended to use the Gold Booklet to exchange for the Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure needed to refine "Tough Skin Resilient Flesh," but he found that he did not have the Gold Booklet with him.

The next morning, Chen Lie took Flying Bus to the training ground of the Genius Group.

Today is the day of the Grandmaster Seed Assessment. With Chen Lie's current Strength Value, he is more than qualified to assess the Grandmaster Seed members.

After arriving at the Genius Group's training grounds by Flying Bus, Chen Lie did not go to the training grounds immediately after getting off the bus, but instead went to the Martial Artist Association.

Upon entering the Martial Artist Association's hall, Chen Lie went directly to a reception window.

Hello, how can I help you with your business?

The staff of the Martial Artist Association saw Chen Lie and asked.

Chen Lie took out Golden Card Album and placed it on the counter. "Do you recognize this?"

"This is--""

"If you don't recognize me, you can ask your superior. I am a member of the East River Provincial Genius Group, and my name is Chen Lie," Chen Lie said, taking out his Genius Group member ID card.

The staff member at the counter glanced at the ID card and immediately said, "Please wait a moment."

After saying that, the staff member turned and left.

A short while later, the staff member brought over a middle-aged man with short hair.

"Hello, Chen Lie. I'm Wang Wei, the person in charge of the reception hall of the Martial Artist Association. How can I help you?"

Chen Lie said, "Hello, Manager Wang, do you recognize this Gold Booklet?"

Wang Wei took the Golden Card Album, examined it closely, and then his expression changed. "This is Gold Booklet specially awarded by the Blue Star Martial Artist Association Headquarters martial arts geniuses, used to exchange for resources?"

"Oh? It seems you know Steward Wang. I'm here today to exchange my Gold Booklet for some martial arts resources. Is that possible?" Chen Liedao.

"That's certainly possible, but—"

Wang Wei pointed to the Gold Booklet and said, "The holder of this Gold Booklet is clearly listed as Ji Lingying. I wonder where Chen got this Gold Booklet from?"

"Ji Lingxuan?"

The staff and people doing business nearby all turned their attention to them.

Ji Lingxuan's name is known to everyone in the Three Provinces of Chuanzhong.

Ji Lingxuan is the number one martial arts genius in Chuanzhong. She has repeatedly represented Chuanzhong in sparring with martial arts geniuses from outside Sichuan, and she always manages to win.

Chen Lie replied frankly, "Naturally, it was given to me by the holder of the Gold Booklet. Could it have been stolen or found?"
