Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116: Chapter 96 Promotion to Blood Refining! Shock arises!

Ten days.

Gone in the blink of an eye.

Inside the dark chamber, Gu Sheng sat cross-legged in the center of a wooden barrel, the blood-red medicinal liquid rising just to his neck, with only his head exposed.

Having soaked in the medicinal bath over forty times now, Gu Sheng was already familiar with every detail of the process.

Within the liquid, tiny vortices constantly formed. This was the result of his skin pores "breathing," absorbing the essence of the medicinal properties. The medicinal energy permeated through his skin, infiltrating and nourishing his flesh and blood.

A simultaneous sensation of sharp pain and satisfaction arose, as the energy tempered his body, causing his flesh to continuously transform.

Compared to the very first time he tried the medicinal bath, Gu Sheng’s physical strength had grown exponentially stronger, and he was now approaching the absolute limit of his flesh and blood.

Once that limit was truly reached, it would mark what most people called the "half-step into the Blood Refining Realm."

Gurgle, gurgle.

Tiny bubbles surfaced continuously. Gu Sheng’s pores absorbed the medicinal liquid at a significantly faster pace. The first time he went through this process, it took two hours, but by now, it required only about an hour.

The piercing pain was intense, but Gu Sheng had become completely accustomed to it. He even regarded it as proof of his progress, and his brows didn’t so much as twitch.

It was unclear how much time had passed.

The blood-red medicinal liquid gradually lost its color, its bubbling slowing until it finally ceased. His pores returned to their normal state, and a deep sense of fullness arose from within his flesh.

Gu Sheng’s eyes suddenly snapped open, crackling with light as if electricity coursed through the room. A flash of brilliance shone within them.

With a light flick, he leapt out of the barrel, water splashing everywhere. The pale red liquid streamed off his flawless body, highlighting his jade-like, streamlined physique to utter perfection.

Though the Blood Nourishing Powder’s medicinal power hadn’t been completely absorbed, Gu Sheng had still reached the absolute limit of his flesh and blood!

"So this... is the limit of flesh and blood..."

Gu Sheng’s eyes sparkled with joy. He clenched his fist lightly, already able to feel the explosive power coursing through his body. Compared to the Jade Skin Realm, the difference was night and day—every casual punch of his now carried the force of a thousand pounds!

His senses, both hearing and sight, had ascended to a new level. The natural rhythm of his breathing had an almost inherent cadence that resonated throughout his skin.

Reaching the limit of his flesh and blood, his skin’s resilience had grown significantly as well.

At this point.

Gu Sheng had already become what people regarded as a half-step into the Blood Refining Realm. Though it seemed within reach of the Jade Skin Realm, the gap was enormous—it wasn’t yet truly the Blood Refining Realm, as he still lacked one critical step.

Qi Blood Power!

The strength of a Blood Refining Realm cultivator relied not only on their physical prowess but also on the incomparably formidable Qi Blood Power that elevated them above others!

With the amplification of Qi Blood Power, the destructive capabilities of a Blood Refining Realm expert would grow exponentially more terrifying.

"Today, I’ll advance to the Blood Refining Realm!"

Gu Sheng dressed quickly and eagerly stepped out of the dark chamber, positioning himself in the courtyard.
