Hong Jin Li Mai Dan was originally a fierce medicine, and if the efficacy increased several times, it could be said to be a poisonous medicine that pierces the intestines! So Lin Ming had made the Mingwen symbol, but he never took it rashly.
Now, his "Chaotic True Origin Formula" has entered the second heavy realm, and the impure true origin power of the Golden Snake Red Gallbladder Pill has also been refined clean. Lin Ming feels that it can be taken almost.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Ming put the dan medicine into his mouth and swallowed it directly.
The pill slipped into his stomach and calmed down, with no too much reaction.
Lin Ming was clear that this was just the calm before the storm. Once the medicinal properties took effect, and it burst forth left and right within his body, that would be when the pain began.
Lin Ming filled the bathtub with water and jumped in to start practicing the Chaotic True Primordial Scripture, the water helping him relax and calm down.
About two quarters of an hour later, Lin Ming felt his stomach start to heat up. At first, it was like drinking a cup of strong liquor, but soon it was like igniting a flame, and the heat spread throughout Lin Ming's body. His body was like falling into a furnace, with hot air reaching his skin and about to escape through his pores. But just as this was happening, an invisible force seemed to bind these hot airs tightly, forcing them to stay inside Lin Ming's body!
This is the effect of the Míngyào Fú.
If it weren't for the medicinal talisman, this medicinal power would have dissipated, and the medicinal talisman forcibly bound them within Lin Ming's body. However, this also increased Lin Ming's suffering!
Jīn shé chì dǎn wán xìng hán rú bīng, chī xià qù hún shēn rú zhuì jiǔ yōu shēn yuān, bīng lěng cì gǔ, ér zhè hóng jīn lóng suǐ dān xìng rè rú huǒ, chī xià qù rú wàn huǒ fén shēn, zhuō tòng nán rěn!
English Translation:
The Golden Snake Red Gallbladder Pill is cold as ice, and when taken, the whole body feels like it's falling into a deep abyss, with icy coldness piercing to the bone. And this Red Gold Dragon Bone Pill is hot as fire, and when taken, it's like being engulfed in flames, causing unbearable scorching pain!
Lin Ming only felt that his body was as if it had been charred, and then there was an iron brush brushing back and forth on the flesh, brushing him to the point of almost collapsing in consciousness.
At first, he could still forcibly circulate the Chaotic True Origin Technique, but later on, he couldn't even circulate the Chaotic True Origin Technique! Such pain was simply unbearable for a human, and even with Lin Ming's strong willpower as a martial artist, he couldn't force himself to cultivate in this state.
The water in the bathtub was getting hotter and hotter because of Lin Ming, and before long it started to churn and boil, emitting a large amount of white steam.
A bucket of water was actually boiled.
However, in such a severe pain, Lin Ming was unable to concentrate his mind, but the countless tiny units within him began to spontaneously spit out and digest the hot air in Lin Ming's body.
Their breathing quickly formed a resonance of true yuan, in this resonance, the hot air masses that had accumulated in Lin Ming's body began to be dispersed and absorbed, and Lin Ming's pain began to subside slightly.
"Hmm? Like this again..."
The last time Lin Ming took the Golden Snake Scarlet Gallbladder Pill, the tiny units in his body spontaneously entered a state of refined power like silk, dispersing the cold air masses and making it easier for the body to absorb them. This time, after taking the Red Gold Dragon Marrow Pill, it was the same.
It was as if Lin Ming's body had formed a kind of instinct to defend against external enemies, and it didn't need Lin Ming's conscious command at all.
Undoubtedly, this is a good wind brought by his years of hard work and practice...
"This 'Hunyuan Gongfa' is truly a divine technique!" Lin Ming had already thought this countless times in his heart.
If it weren't for the boundary of his refined strength, Lin Ming wouldn't know how much longer he could endure the scorching pain brought by the Red Gold Dragon Pill. By the time he finally absorbed all the medicinal properties, the heat toxin might have lingered in his body for too long, causing some damage to his meridians that would require him to spend time recovering.
But now, with the help of Lin Ming's refined strength, he perfectly refined the medicinal properties of the Red Gold Dragon Marrow Dan, just like last time when he absorbed the Golden Snake Scarlet Gallbladder Pill.
All that's left is the process of absorption and consolidation.
Time passed bit by bit, and before he knew it, Lin Ming had already been soaking in the bathtub for two hours. During this time, the water in the bathtub remained steaming hot.
As the medicinal power was refined, Lin Ming's true yuan further permeated his body, thoroughly seeping into his five viscera and six bowels. The third stage of Body Refining and Organ Refining had finally been completed!
Lin Ming opened his eyes, exhaling a long breath of hot air. This single breath surprisingly stirred up the white mist filling the room, forming a small whirlpool that lingered in mid-air for several breaths without showing any signs of dissipating.
"Inhaling like a snake, exhaling like an arrow is already the mark of great achievement in the Refining Organs period. But I was able to reach this level at the beginning of the Refining Organs period. Now that I have reached the great completion of the Refining Organs period, I can exhale like a whirlwind and inhale like a vortex, which is even more advanced. In the memory of that powerful being, those who truly practiced the Chaotic Boxing Sutra to the extreme could blow out air like a stormy tempest and shout loudly like thunderbolts descending upon the world. That was the true power of opening up the heavens and splitting the earth."
After the three major achievements of Lin Ming's physical training, he naturally wouldn't forget to test his fist strength. These days, every time Lin Ming made progress in his cultivation, he would check his fist strength and see how much difference there was with Ling Sen. This time was no exception.
It was already the third watch, and the testing chamber was empty with no one in sight. Lin Ming randomly chose a testing stone stele, closed his eyes, focused his spirit, and continued to build up his momentum before suddenly punching out!
Bang!
A dull, muffled sound, the force-measuring stele shook ceaselessly, the light column jumped wildly, exceeding the five-foot mark, and continued to rise!
Five feet!
51!
Go for it!
Finally, the light column stopped at the scale of five feet three, with a strength of 5,300 catties!
Seeing this number, Lin Ming let out a breath of relief, finally surpassing Ling Sen's casual strike!
"Chaotic True Origin Formula" breaks through the second layer, combined with the completion of the Zang period, Lin Ming's fist strength finally broke through the 5,000 mark!
"When Ling Sen first demonstrated the Force Measuring Stone Stele to the freshmen, a casual punch yielded a result of 4,900 kilograms. Given Ling Sen's temperament, that one punch probably used about 80% of his strength, which means he was being serious. Ling Sen's maximum punching power should be higher than my 5,300 kilograms."
"But no matter how I say it, my current fist strength is already very close to Ling Sen's. However, Ling Sen's advantage doesn't lie in his strength, but rather the terrifying fighting instincts and killing skills he has cultivated through his training in Shura Martial Arts. On the other hand, my advantage lies in my strength, which is still inferior, not to mention my combat abilities which are far behind!"
A martial artist who aspires to reach the pinnacle of martial arts will often treat every strong opponent they encounter as a hypothetical enemy, analyzing their respective strengths and weaknesses, and imagining who would emerge victorious in a battle to the death.
Lin Ming is no exception.
Another ten days passed, "Boom!" Lin Ming's fist struck a tree trunk as thick as a man could wrap his arms around, leaves fluttering and falling everywhere. Lin Ming shook the Gun of the Rainbow, his hand moving like lightning!
"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"
Dozens of falling leaves were all pierced by Lin Ming in just a few breaths!
Lin Ming couldn't be like Hong Xi, stringing fallen leaves on his spear. He could grasp speed and accuracy, but he couldn't control his strength well.
Lin Ming might as well not pursue control over his power and directly pursue ultimate destructive power!
With a force like silk, he stabbed out with his long spear, and the treasure spearhead that carried the Shocking True Yuan touched the fallen leaves, directly crushing them into powder!
He was able to do so because he had reached the peak of his foundation-building period, and his true yuan had become even more condensed, **his power stronger, and his speed faster**. In order to digest the medicinal properties of the Red Golden Dragon's Marrow Pill within a short period of time, Lin Ming used up almost all of his allocated training time in the Seven Great Killing Arrays for this month, leaving him with only six hours remaining.
"Not bad!" Even Hong Xi, who had always been strict with his disciples, couldn't help but give such praise.
"It's only been twenty days and you've already achieved great success in practicing the Three Greats, your Void Spirit Martial Intent is really enviable."
Hong Xi had not seen Lin Ming for ten days since he last taught him the Gun Will, and when he returned, Lin Ming had already reached the great accomplishment of the Foundation stage, which left Hong Xi utterly astonished.
Lin Ming replied, "Officer Hong, I hadn't been taking the Red Gold Dragon Marrow Pill previously. I only ate the Golden Snake Scarlet Gallbladder Pill. It was just a few days ago that I took the Red Gold Dragon Marrow Pill, which is why I made such progress."
Hong Xi listened and was slightly stunned, it turned out that Lin Ming had actually relied on the Golden Snake Scarlet Gallbladder Pill to break through the third layer of Body Tempering and defeat Zhang Cang. Everyone, including him, thought that Lin Ming had taken two pills at once, but this Lin Ming was truly difficult to understand with common sense.
Hong Xi Dao said: "I didn't expect, really didn't expect, that you could break through the Practicing Zang period with just one Golden Snake Red Gallbladder Pill. If I'm not mistaken, your body is extremely suitable for absorbing heavenly treasures and earthly precious objects. Coupled with your Empty Spirit Martial Intent, your future achievements are truly boundless! This is still because your innate talent isn't good; if your innate talent could increase by two grades, then I really wouldn't dare to imagine!"
"Alright, starting from today, for the next ten days, I'll be with you to practice your marksmanship. Your shooting skills already have the basic qualities of speed, accuracy, and stability, but they still lack one thing - variation! Although gun techniques are not as unpredictable as sword techniques, there are many more gun moves than sword moves! The main attacking methods of a sword are basically just thrusting, slashing, and chopping, whereas guns have many more, such as thrusting, splitting, hooking, sweeping, circling, and dancing. I won't teach you fixed moves or routines, but rather how to combine all these basic gun techniques into one cohesive whole, with endless variations!"
"Let's begin! I'll suppress my true yuan to a level similar to yours, and I won't show any mercy!" Hong Xi said as he shook the long spear in his hand, aiming at Lin Ming's chest, and thrust it forward!
Hong Xi only said that he suppressed the true yuan, but he didn't have the power to suppress it. With Hong Xi's physical strength at the sixth level of Condensed Pulse, how could Lin Ming compare? The speed of Hong Xi's spear was as fast as lightning, and in an instant, it appeared right in front of Lin Ming!
"Whoa, fast!" Lin Ming could clearly feel the chill of the gun's blade at that moment, making his hair stand on end.
Bang!
Lin Ming grasped the Gun of Crossing Rainbow, sweeping his spear horizontally and exchanging a blow with Hong Xi. Even though Lin Ming's physical strength exceeded 5,000 units, he was still shaken by Hong Xi's Tiger Mouth, causing his hand to go numb!
The power of a martial artist at the peak of the Condensing Pulse period is indeed abnormal! If not for Lin Ming's Gun of the Rainbow, which contained the tremors of his practiced strength, he would have fallen with just this one blow.
