Yimu Liver

The third stage of the Organ Refining method described in the "Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique" is called "Viscera Refining Vajra".

That is, to cultivate a diamond-like heart, a diamond-like liver, a diamond-like spleen, Vajra Lung, and diamond-like kidneys.

After cultivating the Five Great Visceral Diamond in succession, once the Organ Refining Stage Completion, one can directly rival a powerhouse at the Great Perfection of the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm.

However, Chen Lie remembered that a great figure from the Central Galactic Empire seemed to have given a comment on the Organ Refining method of the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique>, saying that although Viscera Refining Vajra can make a person powerful during the Organ Refining Stage, it has a drawback.

Because the five internal organs of the human body —Five Viscera, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys—are divided into the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, forcibly cultivating the Five Viscera into the five Vajras will have some impact on a certain stage of the True Qi Realm.

Therefore, this important figure from the Central Galactic Empire slightly modified the Organ Refining method of the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique>.

The original five Visceral Diamond were cultivated using special methods into the Geng Metal Lung), Yimu Liver), Kui Water Kidney), Bing Fire Heart), Wu Earth Spleen). In this way, although the power was weakened during the Organ Refining Stage, all five elements were complete.

Chen Lie knew that even within the True Qi Realm, there were Ultimate Realm within the True Qi Stage for Martial Artist.

To reach the Ultimate Realm of True Qi Stage, one must cultivate the Five Elements True Qi of True Qi: lungs containing metal, liver containing wood, kidneys containing water, heart containing fire, and spleen containing earth. Then, one must break through to the Ninth-Order Grandmaster, Yuan Gang Alternation, and the Five Elements True Qi transforms into the five elements of Yuan Qi.

Then gather the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth in your mind, reaching the Ultimate Realm of True Qi Stage, the Five Qi Converging to Origin Realm.

The reason why this important figure in the Central Galactic Empire modified the Organ Refining method of the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique> was to make it easier for practitioners of the secret method to hope to reach the Ultimate Realm of True Qi Stage in the future, the Five Qi Converging to Origin Realm the Origin.

Knowing this, Chen Lie naturally had to consider the long-term consequences and abandoned the more powerful Five Viscera Vajra, choosing instead the second set of Organ Refining methods.

However, he also wanted to take into account the strengths of both methods of Organ Refining organs, so he cultivated the Geng Metal Lung into the more powerful Vajra Lung. Both are of the metal element, but the Vajra Lung is obviously stronger than the Geng Metal Lung and can also generate the True Qi of metal, and even the primordial energy of metal.

And so, following the second version of the Organ Refining method, Chen Lie began cultivating the Yimu Liver.

After a morning of cultivation, Chen Lie felt that he was only one step away from cultivating the Yimu Liver technique.

"I've hit a bottleneck and need the necessary resources to assist my cultivation."

Chen Lie stood up from the cultivation platform, walked out of the Cultivation Room, and went to the Resource Category Building.

Upon arriving at the Resource Category Building, Chen Lie saw that the lobby was bustling with people, all of whom were exchanging Credit for martial arts resources.

He went directly to a window and said to the staff inside, "I want to exchange for a Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure with the wood element." "Are you sure you want Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure? It's not cheap. A Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure costs at least 600 Credit. Even students in the Genius Class rarely have the opportunity to use Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure," the staff member asked.

"Yes, I want Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure."

After checking the information on the Optical Computer, the staff member pulled up a list and handed it to Chen Lie.

"All the second-tier wood-attribute Martial Dao Rare Treasure currently existing at Blue Star University are listed here. This list includes the prices, uses, and effects of each treasure. Take your pick!"

Chen Lie took the list, glanced at it, and was surprised to find that there were more than twenty kinds of second-tier wood-attribute Martial Dao Rare Treasure on the list, and at least five of them could help him cultivate the Yimu Liver.

He couldn't help but marvel. As expected of Blue Star University, the place with the most concentrated martial arts resources on Blue Star, there are so many kinds of existing Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure.

Chen Lie directly selected a suitable Martial Dao Rare Treasure and said, "Give me one of these Chen Wood Pulse-Nurturing Grass."

The staff member glanced at it and said, "Chen Wood Pulse-Nurturing Grass, a rare Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure, priced at 850 points. Super Genius Class students will receive a 40% discount, and Genius Class students will receive a 20% discount. What class are you in?" "The Key Class."

"According to Blue Star University's regulations, students in the Key Class receive no preferential treatment when purchasing martial arts resources exceeding 500 Credit. 850 Credit —that's a whole month's expenses for an Key Class student. You should carefully consider whether you really need such resources. Even if you do need them, try to find a student in the Genius Class to buy them for you; it can save you nearly two hundred Credit," the staff member kindly advised. Although Chen Lie could find a student in the Genius Class to buy them for him, he was currently at a crucial stage in his training and didn't have time to waste saving those two hundred Credit.

Just as Chen Lie was waving his hand in refusal, a clear and melodious voice suddenly rang out.

"Captain Chen Lie, it seems you've run into a little trouble. Do you need my help?"

Chen Lie turned around and saw that it was Song Yixuan standing behind him, smiling and waving at him.

Beside Song Yixuan, there was a strikingly beautiful girl accompanying her.

"Oh, it's Song Yixuan. Since you're here too, thank you for your help."

"It's nothing."

Song Yixuan walked up and said to the staff member, "Hello, I'll purchase the Martial Dao Rare Treasure then."

The staff entered Song Yixuan's student information, Chen Lie obtained the Chen Wood Pulse-Nurturing Grass, which was originally worth 850 Credit, for only 680 credits.

Song Yixuan said with slight surprise, "Captain Chen Lie has made great progress in martial arts recently, and he can actually use such high-level martial arts resources." "You are the same. At this age, to have reached this level, you can be considered exceptionally talented no matter which province on Blue Star you are in." Song Yixuan looked at Chen Lie with surprise.

I was a little suspicious. Surely he couldn't possibly know his own true bone age?

Her personal information always listed her as being close to 18 years old, but only she knows her actual age, which is just 17.

An 18-year-old at the Internal Organ Refining Stage would be considered exceptionally talented on Blue Star, but a 17- Organ Refining Stage at the same stage would be considered unparalleled in talent. "Heh heh, it's alright. No matter how good I am now, I'm just one of Captain Chen's junior officers in East River Province. I can't compare to you, Captain." Chen Lie's insightful observations greatly alarmed Song Yixuan. She was worried that Chen Lie would uncover her secrets, so she said, "Captain, you go ahead with your work. I have some things to do over there."

Chen Lie nodded and, seeing Song Yixuan leave in a hurry, he also immediately took the second-tier wood-attribute Chen Wood Pulse-Nurturing Grass and left the hall of the Resource Category Building.

At this moment, the strikingly beautiful girl who was with Song Yixuan asked, "Yixuan, who was that person just now...?"

"Oh, he's the number one Martial Leader in our East River Province," Song Yixuan explained.

"Your East River Province, I remember, is only ranked around 70th on Blue Star. Logically speaking, the Martial Leader's strength should be at most at the Tendon Refining Period."

With your strength, you'd be Martial Leader even in one of the top 30 provinces on Blue Star. I never expected you couldn't in East River Province. East River Province is really acting strangely today; your overall strength is surprisingly high."

The girl sighed.

She had privately sparred with Song Yixuan from East River Province a few times, and Song Yixuan's strength truly astonished her. She had assumed Song Yixuan was from one of the top ten provinces on Blue Star, but she never expected her to be from a backward province like Chuanzhong.

I thought Song Yixuan must be the top Martial Leader in Chuanzhong, or even the number Region-Level Genius in several provinces, but I never expected that she wasn't even the Martial Leader. Generally speaking, the Martial Leader of provinces ranked outside the top 60 on Blue Star are mostly at the Tendon Refining Period. This East River Province is too strange. It feels like a province ranked in the top 30 on Blue Star.

"Yes, East River Province this year has been truly strange."

Song Yixuan was also deeply moved.

It's astonishing that a province ranked near the bottom of Blue Star could actually seize the Northwest General Star, a privilege reserved for the top ten provinces on Blue Star. Even she, an outsider, couldn't help but be amazed. This Chen Lie, on the other hand, is a true native of East River Province.

On the other side, Chen Lie returned to the Cultivation Room in the Teaching Building, sat cross-legged on the training platform, and swallowed the Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure, Chen Wood Pulse-Nurturing Grass.

Before the energy of the Martial Dao Rare Treasure could even dissipate, Chen Lie directly refined it using his blood and qi.

Guided by the pure wood energy, Chen Lie began to strengthen his liver.

As Chen Lie continuously guided energy into his liver, Chen Lie saw, under his divine vision, that the originally ordinary liver began to gradually bloom with a blue light.

As Chen Lie practiced the new version of the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique>'s Organ Refining method, the azure light emanating from his ordinary liver suddenly intensified. "The Yimu Liver is complete!"

Chen Lie stood up, feeling the wood energy filling his liver, and nodded in satisfaction.

Cultivating the organs of the Five Elements will give one the opportunity to reach the Ultimate Realm of True Qi Stage, the Five Qi Converging to Origin Realm, which is of paramount importance.

The Organ Refining method of the Central Galactic Empire is naturally not the same as the Five Elements Organ Refining Method that Chen Lie previously obtained from the Resource Category Building. The Five Elements Organ Refining Method on Blue Star can balance the five elements of the Five Viscera internal organs and accelerate the progress of the Organ Refining Stage, while Chen Lie directly refined his Yimu Liver, which is filled with the power of wood.

When he Ranked Martial Artist in the future, he will be able to cultivate the Wood True Qi of the Five Elements more easily.

When Chen Lie left the Cultivation Room, it was already afternoon. He took the opportunity to have a meal in the restaurant.

When he returned to the Teaching Building, he met Chi Naixue.

Chi Naixue saw Chen Lie and walked over to him.

"Chen Lie, last time in the Sumeru Illusion Realm, that Starry Sky University student Tang Yan'er said you were the East River Province Martial Leader? Is that true?"

Chen Lie asked expressionlessly, "Is it true? Is there something wrong?"

Chi Naixue looked somewhat embarrassed and said, "I always thought you were exaggerating your strength. I'm really sorry, but it seems you really do have the strength of the Tendon Refining Period. To have cultivated martial arts to this level in East River Province is indeed remarkable. However, in principle, you should be able to directly join the Genius Class of Blue Star University. Why are you with the students of our Xiangguang Province Genius Training Camp?"

Chen Lie didn't say much, only stating, "I naturally have my reasons."

"I'm really sorry about the resource category issue before. I thought your martial arts strength wasn't high enough to warrant such a profound cultivation method as the Organ Refining Technique. However, Tang Guanlin is currently in the Organ Refining Stage and needs the Five Elements Organ Refining Method even more than you do. Once you enter the Organ Refining Stage, if needed, I will ask Tang Guanlin to share his cultivation experience with the Organ Refining Technique," Chi Naixue said.

"No need, I don't need any Organ Refining techniques." Chen Lie waved his hand.

"Hmm." Chi Naixue didn't say much more, then said, "Since you are the East River Province Martial Leader, you must also be at the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm."

My advisor asked me to inform the students in the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm from Xiangguang Province that we need to meet in the classroom on the first floor tomorrow. The advisor will announce the details tomorrow.

"Okay, I understand. Is there anything else?" Chen Lie asked.

Chi Naixue shook her head. "No, that's all."

"Then I'll head Dormitory."

After Chen Lie finished speaking, he turned around and went upstairs.

Chi Naixue watched Chen Lie leave, her eyes flickering.

The Martial Leader in a province is bound to be arrogant, the strongest genius in the entire province, with the other geniuses merely playing a supporting role.

Chi Naixue also knew that she had previously misunderstood Chen Lie as someone who was not very good at martial arts and had gotten in through connections, so she had treated the two transfer students, Tang Guanlin and Chen Lie, very differently.

She believed her differential treatment was perfectly reasonable; martial arts masters naturally deserved preferential treatment, and it was only natural for the weak to yield to the strong. However, now that she knew Chen Lie was actually a provincial Martial Leader, her previous attitude became somewhat problematic.

Even though she was in Xiangguang Province, one of the twelve largest provinces on Blue Star, she knew how difficult it was to reach the Tendon Refining Period in martial arts and stand out among millions of her peers to become the Martial Leader in a poor province.

Although Chen Lie was found to have Medium Bone Quality, his mentor also said that sometimes physical attributes don't mean much. Chen Lie's martial arts talent may not be weaker than Tang Guanlin, a member of the Genius Group from one of the top ten provinces of Blue Star, and may even be stronger.

If she had known from the beginning that Chen Lie was the East River Province Martial Leader, she certainly wouldn't have made the differential treatment so obvious; she would have naturally considered Chen Lie's feelings.

But now that what's done is done, all she can do is express her current attitude, hoping to improve her relationship with this East River Province Martial Leader. If not, she won't force it, since no one owes anyone anything.

The provincial Martial Leader is a genius, isn't she one too?

Not to mention a backward province like East River Province, where even the highest Martial Leader can't reach the Bone Refining stage. The Martial Leader of East River Martial Champion isn't from a top-ranked Blue Star arts province like Xiangguang Province, so their martial arts strength is even inferior to hers. Naturally, she's not worth doing anything more for them.

The next morning, Chen Lie stopped cultivating the <Lingguang Divine Refining Chapter> overnight.

Knowing that his mentor was gathering students at the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm, Chen Lie washed up and left his Dormitory early. As soon as he stepped out, he saw Chen Lie Chen Huafeng and Huang Yuande, who had left their dorm room around the same time.

"Chen Lie, you also knew that the instructor would be lecturing on martial arts today?" Huang Yuande asked upon seeing Chen Lie.

"What martial arts class?"

"Didn't you know that the instructor summoned all the students in the class who had reached the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm?"
