In chaotic times, one can become a martial immortal.

In the days that followed, Lu Yuan continued to shuttle between his room and the training room.

Two points in a straight line, extremely regular.

Another ten days have passed quietly.

Although maintaining a high-intensity training state every day can feel a bit tedious and tiring at times, Lu Yuan can feel himself getting stronger almost every moment, which still motivates him greatly.

However, maintaining a high level of cultivation efficiency comes at a terrifying rate in terms of the consumption of money and resources, especially when advancing to the Golden Muscle level, where the internal energy consumed almost doubles each time.

As a result, the consumption of Ironback Barbarian beef jerky and Blood Essence Pills also doubled.

In order to accelerate the condensation of his internal energy and ensure that he could practice the Five Elements Vajra Body Refining Technique three times a day, he even spent a lot of money to buy some Xuan Yuan Pills from the academy's medicine hall.

One hundred taels each, and they bought fifty in total, which amounted to a full five thousand taels.

"Although I still have about six thousand taels of silver notes, the consumption of silver and resources will definitely be more terrifying after I advance to the seventh rank. If I don't have a good source of income, I'm afraid I'll have to sit and eat my savings until they run out."

Lu Yuan pondered to himself, then glanced at the ancient scroll in his mind.

The two little golden figures were still diligently cultivating, one of them sitting cross-legged, continuing to perfect the Five Elements Vajra Body.

I thought that after more than two months, there should be some results.

Unexpectedly, the progress was much slower than he had imagined. Perhaps only after entering the inner courtyard and finding a few more profound-grade internal cultivation manuals could he speed up the process and see real results.

The other little golden figure is also continuing to break the limit of the Blazing Sun Sword Technique, and its progress has been stuck at around 30%.

It will take at least a few days to increase the progress by one or two points.

Clearly, the yellow-grade sword techniques he had acquired were also insufficient to support the Blazing Sun Sword Technique in completely breaking through its limits.

We need to find more and better sword techniques with similar profound concepts.

Without paying much attention to the two little golden figures, Lu Yuan turned his gaze to the proficiency of each martial art technique.

【The Great Completion of the Five Elements Vajra Body Flesh Refining Chapter (196732/200000)】

【Mastering the Frightening Leg Technique (31732/150000)】

[Mastery of Throwing Knife Technique (31629/150000)]

My proficiency with the Five Elements Vajra Body Flesh Refining Technique is nearing its limit. I estimate that after one more practice session, I should reach perfection.

His whirlwind kick and throwing knife technique have both reached a high level of mastery.

The fully mastered Gale Kick not only allows Lu Yuan to increase his speed several times over in a very short time, but also leaves behind several afterimages to protect himself from ordinary damage, and even unleash destructive power comparable to a typical Qi Realm attack.

If he were to unleash his speed to its fullest potential, even ordinary sixth-rank or fifth-rank warriors might not be able to catch up with him.

While Lu Yuan's mastery of the throwing knife technique still only allows him to throw a maximum of three knives at a time, its speed, accuracy, and lethality have all been greatly enhanced.

Even the effective distance has been increased from one hundred steps to two hundred steps.

It can be said that even from two hundred paces away, Lu Yuan could simultaneously shoot three throwing knives, easily striking the enemy's vitals, with no misses.

……

After returning from the training room, Lu Yuan rested for a while.

Then, he ate another pound of dried meat, and also took one Blood Essence Pill and one Profound Essence Pill.

Without the slightest hesitation, he continued to cultivate the Five Elements Vajra Body Flesh Refining Technique.

About an hour and a half later, Lu Yuan seemed to be covered in a golden robe, and there were even golden patterns reflecting each other beneath his skin.

The two layers of gold patterns intertwined, making the golden robes on his body seem a bit more solid.

Golden skin, complete!

"Buzz!"

Lu Yuan drew his sword, and the blazing sun sword energy burst forth.

The intense heat caused the temperature in the entire room to rise sharply.

The next moment, he slowly brought his sword energy into contact with the golden robe.

"Clang clang clang..."

Although the golden robe trembled incessantly, it remained completely undamaged.

This means that the combination of golden skin and golden muscles is sufficient to withstand ordinary Qi Realm attacks.

Next, Lu Yuan unleashed 30% of his Thunder Sword Intent.

In an instant, lightning flashed, and sword energy blazed like lightning.

"Click...click..."

The sword energy, containing thirty percent of the sword intent of thunder, had barely touched the golden robe when it was completely torn apart as if it were made of paper.

He didn't continue to look at the limit; the power of the Thunder Sword Intent was too strong and could easily injure himself.

Lu Yuan, on the contrary, looked satisfied with the result.

This shows that having already grasped 30% of the Thunder Sword Intent, he could easily break through the defense of a genius who had also cultivated golden skin and golden muscles.

After all, this is a county-level martial arts academy where first-class students are as common as dogs and top-tier students are everywhere. Most of them even have powerful backgrounds and can frantically pile up resources. Even if there aren't too many students who have achieved the Golden Skin and Golden Muscles, there are certainly not too few.

The artistic conception is different; it is a special realm that relies purely on enlightenment.

Even if a small number of them can visualize the imagery of the diagrams without limitations, like Murong Jue, those who have already grasped 30% of the meaning must be very few.

Of course, for Lu Yuan, this was not enough.

Next, he needs to continue cultivating the Bone Forging Chapter of the Five Elements Vajra Body.

Not only must one advance to the seventh rank, but one must also successively reach three levels: Iron Bone, Gold Bone, and Jade Bone.

Of course, the Thunder Sword Intent must also find an opportunity to continue improving its progress.

Only by simultaneously mastering the strongest defense and the strongest offense can one ensure their invincibility.

[The Five Elements Vajra Body Forging Technique: Unfamiliar with Basics (1/2000)]

The initial proficiency level of the Five Elements Vajra Body Forging Technique has increased by another 500.

Even so, Lu Yuan was still confident that if he maintained a pace of five training sessions a day, he should be able to successfully cultivate the basics and reach the seventh rank before the freshman assessment.

Ninth grade skin, eighth grade meat, seventh grade bone.

It can be said that the Bone Forging Realm is the final step in a martial artist's external physical training, a crucial hurdle, and the foundation for their future.

As the saying goes, "If the bones are not strong, the body will not be strong."

Only when the entire skeleton is as tough as iron can the strength of the physical body be truly demonstrated.

Of course, Lu Yuan's goal was far more than just Iron Bones, or even stronger Golden Bones, but the ultimate Jade Bones.

[The Five Elements Vajra Body Forging Technique: Unfamiliar with Basics (5/2000)]

……

As the cultivation technique circulated, Lu Yuan discovered that the internal energy in his dantian space once again spread to all parts of his body, transforming into countless fine threads that continuously drilled into his bones, rapidly tempering and refining the bone tissue.

A tingling, numb sensation came over me; this was the feeling of bone changes.

It's important to understand that, generally speaking, even for those with top-tier bone structure, the process of bone forging is extremely slow, with only minor changes each day, requiring accumulation over time for a complete transformation.

Lu Yuan could clearly feel that the bones in his entire body were truly and rapidly strengthening.

It can be said that his bone-forging efficiency far surpasses that of so-called top-tier bone structure.

Of course, high efficiency also means faster consumption.

Lu Yuan now needs to eat ten catties of Ironback Barbarian beef jerky, one Blood Essence Pill, and one Profound Essence Pill every day in order to maintain his five-times-a-day training progress.

"At this rate of consumption, I can only last for another month at most."

Lu Yuan pondered to himself, feeling that making money was now an urgent matter.
