Demon-Subduing Golden Body, Improve Bone Structure?

Demon-Subduing Golden Body, improving his root bone? The instant the two of them spoke—

Lin Tian's fist had already collided with Ma Dalong's.

A tremendous boom immediately rang out through the mountain forest!

And the moment Ma Dalong felt the force in Lin Tian's attack before him—

His expression changed drastically on the spot!

Clearly, he had never imagined that the youth before him would possess such strength!

But it was not over yet.

Just as Ma Dalong was still caught in shock—

A soft, sinister, and bizarre force—

Immediately surged into Ma Dalong's body like a venomous snake.

Then it began to reverberate endlessly through his internal organs.

Ma Dalong spat out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body was sent flying backward!

Ma Dalong crashed to the ground, his eyes wide open.

They were filled with disbelief.

Da... Dark Force!

The youth before him was a Dark Force expert??!!

Who was he?

And why did he want to kill me?

When had I ever provoked a powerful figure of this level?

At that moment, countless questions surged through his mind.

Unfortunately, he was destined never to speak again.

Because after that strange Dark Force entered his body—

His internal organs had long since been destroyed.

At most, all he could do now was open his mouth again and spit out blood.

The next moment—

Ma Dalong's consciousness vanished at once, and his life force completely dissipated with it.

Looking at this scene—

Lin Tian did not hesitate in the slightest. First, he struck Ma Dalong's head viciously with another burst of Dark Force.

To prevent him from pretending to be dead.

After doing all of this—

Lin Tian did not linger for long either.

After taking everything from the other man's body that could be taken—

He immediately left that place.

In the mountain forest, flames soared into the sky.

After Lin Tian left—

Very soon, the sound of the fight here just now immediately drew the attention of the Black Axe Gang's members...

At that moment, Lin Tian quickly arrived at a safe place.

He did not go straight home.

Instead, he came to an abandoned house.

By the moonlight—

He took out everything he had obtained.

Some silver notes, as well as a bit of broken silver.

Altogether, the money added up to around one hundred taels.

Of course, there were also some other things.

Two black iron beads?

He picked them up and examined them, and a heavy smell of gunpowder immediately wafted out.

Looking at these two iron beads—

Lin Tian thought of the huge explosion Ma Dalong had caused before fleeing.

Could those explosions have been caused by these things?

Lin Tian carefully picked it up and looked it over.

After all, if it really was what he thought it was, then this thing was no ordinary danger.

He recalled the scene back then, when Ma Dalong had triggered an explosion and sent the entire sea of fire surging up.

Lin Tian still felt a lingering fear in his heart.

Then Lin Tian put away the iron bead in front of him first.

Next, Lin Tian's gaze shifted again.

This was the last thing he had found on Ma Dalong tonight.

A... copper plate?

This thing had been hidden by Ma Dalong in his sleeve.

If Lin Tian had not caught a glimpse of something in the other man's sleeve out of the corner of his eye during the previous battle, he might not have discovered it at all.

For the other party to hide it away so carefully and secretly, this thing was clearly no ordinary object either.

Hm? There seemed to be words on this copper plate?

He looked at the largest few characters among them.

"This is... Demon-Subduing Golden Body?"

"Hm? What does that mean? Could this actually be a cultivation art?"

As Lin Tian carefully read the words on the copper plate, he then discovered that it was exactly as he had thought.

This was a cultivation art.

And it was a hard-body art at that!

Moreover, it was a hard-body art that cultivated both the inner organs and the sinews, bones, outer flesh, and skin!

Seeing this, a sharp gleam flashed through Lin Tian's eyes!

His heart grew more and more pleasantly surprised.

After all, this was the first time he had ever heard of a hard-body art capable of cultivating both inside and out.

Traditional hard-body arts generally did not involve the organs.

It was not that they could not be cultivated, but that places like the internal organs were far too fragile.

If one trained them according to the methods of hard-body arts as well, that would only injure oneself!

So methods for cultivating the inside and outside were generally practiced separately.

But this cultivation art could actually cultivate the inside and outside together!

This was not as simple as merely giving the internal organs the same powerful resistance to blows.

This strengthened his five viscera and six bowels.

The significance of that naturally could not be the same.

Possessing powerful five viscera and six bowels not only allowed one to have even stronger recovery, but could also make one immune to a hundred poisons.

Of course, the text also stated that this cultivation art had another effect... improving root bone!

That was right, this cultivation art could improve his root bone!

It could even improve it more than once.

According to what this cultivation art said, once he cultivated it to a profound level, he could undergo three transformations. At that time, his flesh and blood would be recast.

His root bone and aptitude would both receive a tremendous improvement!!

Looking at the cultivation art in his hands, Lin Tian felt as if he had obtained a priceless treasure.

Although on the surface, he did not much care about his root bone, after all, he had his Fate Grid.

Even without a powerful root bone, he could still cultivate into a powerhouse.

But who would ever complain about having too many benefits?

But in the next moment, his gaze immediately turned somewhat hesitant.

It was just that cultivating this art seemed extremely demanding.

To begin cultivation, it seemed he needed the assistance of something called a Bodhi Fruit??

Or was this cultivation method something he simply had no way to cultivate?

But what was that Bodhi Fruit?

Clearly, he knew absolutely nothing about such a thing.

But right after that, he looked toward his own Fate Grid.

Learning Leads to Success?

Perhaps...

As he thought this, Lin Tian immediately began to move.

Only after a while had passed—

In his mind, his Fate Grid once again shone with a ray of light.

Fate Grid · Learning Leads to Success

Mountain-Shaking Fist (Limit-Breaking) 3485/10000

Demon-Subduing Golden Body (First Layer · Stone Garment) 5/800

"It worked! It really can be done!"

"Heh, I never thought this Fate Grid would actually let me ignore the conditions for cultivating a technique and start cultivating it directly."

After that burst of excitement had passed, Lin Tian put all these things away, and his whole person once again vanished into the black shadows.

The next day.

Lin Tian entered the Martial Academy once more.

Because after obtaining the Demon-Subduing Golden Body last night, Lin Tian had readjusted his cultivation schedule.

After all, now that he wanted to cultivate two techniques, he still had to allocate his time reasonably.

Of course, at this moment, he would still place the Mountain-Shaking Fist in the absolute core position.

After all, a martial artist's realm was the foundation; everything else was merely external assistance.

So the schedule he adjusted was to set aside part of the morning to cultivate the Demon-Subduing Golden Body.

All the remaining time would be used to cultivate the Mountain-Shaking Fist.

So when Lin Tian arrived at the Martial Academy today, the courtyard was already packed with disciples of the Outer Academy.

As Lin Tian entered, the disciples of the Outer Academy all greeted him respectfully.

But after Lin Tian left, the sound of everyone's discussion rose once again.

"Hey, hey, did you hear? Yesterday, a new senior brother came to the Inner Academy. They say that yesterday, when he acknowledged Master as his teacher, Master had him offer tea!"

"What? There was such a thing? I thought that since that senior brother arrived around the same time as Senior Brother Lin Tian, he wouldn't need to offer tea either."

"Heh! How could that be the same? I heard that new senior brother used to cultivate alone at home, and it only took him a little over a month to break through to Bright Force! That's a genius!"

"And they say he's also the son of a great merchant! Someone with that kind of status and background, and talent on top of it—how could Master possibly not value him?"

"Hey, haven't you noticed?"

"When Senior Brother Lin Tian came today, he seemed a little late."

"Don't tell me he already knew what happened yesterday, so he got angry and..."

Having said this much, that disciple seemed to realize he had said something wrong.

He immediately looked a little fearfully in the direction where Lin Tian was.

Fortunately, however, Lin Tian's figure had already disappeared into the Inner Academy.
