Chapter 130: 092 Additional points, Hard Skill further improved! (6k)_3
Fighter immediately stepped aside to make room.
Chen Liao strode in and directly emptied the contents of the bag.
Clatter…
All of them were small ice cubes, about a quarter of a fist in size. The crystal-clear ice cubes fell into the pale blue medicinal fluid, instantly lowering the temperature. Some cubes sank to the bottom, while others floated.
It looked like a beautifully mixed cocktail.
“Alright, that should be enough. Go on in,”
Chen Liao piled the white bag next to the barrel and continued.
“If you feel like the temperature isn’t low enough, just scoop out some ice cubes from this bag and toss them into the bath. But don’t add too many…”
“Just the right amount, you got it?”
“Got it.” Bai Xiao nodded and walked right into the Medicine Bath Room.
Chen Liao left, the door closed behind him, and silence filled the surroundings.
He quickly stripped naked and submerged himself in the bath.
“Hiss…”
Bai Xiao experienced a bone-chilling cold, completely different from his previous medicated baths. He gradually sank into the icy water, which engulfed his chest.
This time, Bai Xiao felt even colder.
The chill of soaking in ice water is an entirely different concept when it engulfs the chest. Some people claim not to feel cold just up to their waist, but would they say the same if they submerged further?
Inside the secret chamber, in the medicinal barrel.
Bai Xiao calmed his nerves, overcoming the cold, and slowly opened his eyes.
The faint fragrance was surprisingly rather pleasant to his mood.
After adjusting himself to reach an optimal state,
his gaze shifted to the front, where a dark red glow was already taking over.
[Skill: Jiao Jin Net Introduction (1/200)]+
[Dark Red Modifier]
[Potential Points: 6]
“Dark Red!”
With a thought, he focused all his attention on the plus sign.
Suddenly, the Potential Points rapidly decreased until only two were left.
Then he looked at the status bar of Fighter’s skills.
Blurry and vague, the Experience was skyrocketing.
[Your profession ‘Martial Artist’ gained Experience +30!]
[Your skill ‘Jiao Jin Net Introduction’ gained Experience +200!]
[The skill ‘Jiao Jin Net Introduction’ has leveled up to ‘Snake Muscle Realm’!]
[Skill: Jiao Jin Net Snake Muscle Realm (1/400)]
Bai Xiao took a deep breath, and the next moment, familiar negative effects came rushing in waves. However, his Physique had already surpassed thirty points, and he was totally able to withstand it. Within a breath or two, Bai Xiao reopened his eyes.
[Profession: Martial Artist LV.1 (424/600)]
In this period, facing successive strong adversaries and continuously improving his Hard Skill, his Martial Artist profession’s Experience had risen quickly. It seemed that it wouldn’t take long to elevate his Martial Artist to LV.2 and further enhance his talents.
Hiss hiss hiss…
Composing himself, Bai Xiao looked down at the pale blue medicated water.
Due to the rapid enhancement, his body was very thirsty.
Pores and skin were wide open, like little mouths continuously absorbing the surging and stimulating medicinal force around them. It was almost visible to the eye, the blue in the medicated water was being depleted, turning clear.
The next second, Bai Xiao suddenly furrowed his brows.
He felt that every major tendon throughout his body was as if frozen by cold winds and air, covered with icy ridges on the surface. Piercing cold came in waves, limbs gradually numbed, and a cold feeling faintly surrounded him.
“Add ice when the temperature isn’t low enough? Are they trying to freeze someone to death!”
Bai Xiao recalled Chen Liao’s warning and felt it was the opposite.
However, almost in an instant.
All the cold tendons in his body reversed into scorching heat. It was like his body had steel bars heated to redness inserted in it.
Broiling his flesh and burning his bones.
“…”
Chen Liao was right; this was a trial of ice and fire.
Bai Xiao immediately concentrated, his chest rising high, as he kept adjusting his breathing. Occasionally, when he felt the temperature wasn’t cold enough, he’d get some ice to put in.
Thus, seconds and minutes passed.
Bai Xiao’s body temperature kept heating the medicated water, and the subsequent ice cubes kept cooling it. In this repeating cycle, the blue medicinal force was gradually absorbed clean, leaving only a small barrel of clear water.
Whoosh!
Black eyes snapped open, and a flash of sharpness passed through them.
Bai Xiao rose from the medicinal barrel, splashing water everywhere.
He slowly lifted his arms, positioning them in the posture of an ape with forearms slantingly placed in front of his body, and then, with a burst of power, muscles fiercely bulged.
However, the most eye-catching was beneath the hard muscles.
Row upon row of thick black tendons spread all over his body, resembling numerous slender snakes squirming and jumping, giving off a sense of toughness and power.
“Fascia, related to power, the stronger the fascia, the greater the power!”
Bai Xiao moved his shoulders, which crackled and popped.
He stepped out of the medicinal barrel and put on his clothes.
Since the class hours were nearly over, and there were no free meals to scrounge, Bai Xiao drove himself to a restaurant to replenish his nutrients. After returning to his residence, he took a shower and stepped out of the bathroom.
While drying his head with a towel, he looked ahead.

A good improvement, and the effects of the Martial Body were also quite good.
But this time, advancing Jiao Jin Net to the Snake Muscle Realm mainly filled Bai Xiao’s gap in Hard Skill. Now, his resistance to being hit had been further strengthened. You need umbrella ribs to support an umbrella fabric for it to provide shelter from the wind and rain.
And the major tendons throughout Bai Xiao’s body were part of those umbrella ribs.
In the bedroom, Bai Xiao slowly donned his clothes.
Next, he planned to go deliver takeout, this time grinding the profession to max level. After that, Bai Xiao would gain six Potential Points, plus the previous two he’d saved, giving him a total of eight points.
