With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal-Chapter 735 - 588: Jade Elixir Refines the Kidneys, Divine Waist Takes Shape!

Chapter 735: Chapter 588: Jade Elixir Refines the Kidneys, Divine Waist Takes Shape!

In Great Chu, there is a custom that requires one to comb their hair on this day.

Within Huayun Prefecture, Meng Chuan controlled his hair, which was like steel needles, making it stand upright.

After a while, he gave himself a neat buzz cut.

Looking in the mirror, he smiled with satisfaction, feeling it’s a farewell to the old and a welcome to the new.

The night practice of pile skill ended, accompanied by a prompt in his mind, Meng Chuan introspected inwardly:

[Taiyi Three Talents Posture: Earth Posture (66%) Awaiting Limit Breaking]

[Limit Breaking Feature: Earth Fiend Treasure Body (Intermediate)]

His gaze shifted to the martial arts firmament.

In the pitch-black night sky, star trails dense like a spider’s web were all solidified, connecting 355 stars, ultimately extending to six major orifices at the dome.

Feeling it for a moment, Meng Chuan noticed these star trails were like his meridians, exceedingly flexible.

With the meridians fully cultivated to perfection on the second major limit, now only Qi blood perfection was missing, before he could start breaking through the third human limit.

He was very much looking forward to it.

Returning to his senses, Meng Chuan gazed at the star trails resembling glowing blue ribbons, contemplating:

"The cultivation of the martial arts firmament, hereby ends, the next in the Three Limits pile skill, should work within the inner realm, right?

But directly crossing from the firmament to cultivate in the inner realm might be a bit too ambitious, and the meridians should extend from the firmament to the inner realm first..."

To use the meridians to connect the two?

Currently, the two exist as split entities within him.

Each time the introspection perspective switches, it feels like changing the channel on a TV...

He thought that the martial arts firmament and the inner realm should be a cohesive whole, aligning more with the "common principles of martial arts."

Now Meng Chuan’s understanding of martial principles isn’t lacking, he could roughly guess some aspects.

He felt, the cultivation process of the Three Limits pile skill should manifest internally, bringing the firmament and inner realm closer together.

Until the two merge into one, no longer separate.

The possibility is great, he could confirm this with a mentor at that time.

Thinking of this, Meng Chuan’s gaze naturally lowered, looking towards the inner realm.

With just a glance, the "Natural Mountain" representing the Five Elements suddenly appeared before his eyes.

This mountain, symbolizing Meng Chuan’s main accomplishments in martial arts, became increasingly robust and grand.

Compared to other martial principle mountains, it was indeed a towering presence.

In recent days, he had another Five Elements Fist reach Limit Breaking, with the intermediate trait filling in [Five Qi Chaoyuan].

Not only did the Five Elements martial principles strengthen, but also the Limit Breaking progress of [Five Elements Qiankun Method] approached 80%.

Two more Five Elements Fist Limit Breaking intermediate traits were needed to let Five Qi Chaoyuan break limits again!

Meng Chuan had a premonition that once he advanced it to the fourth-tier core, the mountain representing the Five Elements in the inner realm would undergo an extraordinary transformation...

Exiting the inner realm, at the same time, he felt the misty water attribute essence on his muscles and bones, speaking with delight:

"The efforts of Tao Heart last night are about to yield results..."

Spending a great deal to nurture a dragon demon, wasn’t it all for this day?

In recent days, the digestion of a large amount of water attribute cores had already swollen his muscles and bones.

Reinforcing kidney water, directly benefiting the soul with "real damage" harvested substantially.

The quantitative change had reached its limit, a drastic measure was needed for qualitative change!

Today is the day.

With the Abyssal Water Demon Core, the dragon demon had already nourished muscle and bone with its essence.

Through introspection, Meng Chuan saw a layer of crystal clear azure light covering his muscles and bones.

Like a flowing water breath, he listened closely, hearing the surging "splashing" sounds relentlessly washing over.

With a thought, in two flashes of movement, Meng Chuan appeared at the bottom of an artificial lake in the community.

Sitting cross-legged, the water waves expelled, leaving no trace of wetness around him.

With a thought, the mighty flow within the artificial lake transformed entirely into kidney water for regulation.

Simultaneously, unusual changes occurred within, as muscles and bones vibrated, and the rich water attribute essence wrapped with kidney water.

Refining them, waiting for the two to become like boiling jade nectar inside.

Meng Chuan again drew the surrounding flood, converting it into kidney water, to "cool down" the jade nectar.

The process was like concocting herbal medicine, repeated several times, back and forth for several hours.

Slow work is needed.

After a long time.

Meng Chuan introspected again, focusing his strength.

Externally, it was like lifting the lid off a simmering crockpot on the stove, as wisps of white steam soared high, breaking through the water layer, rising ten feet into the air, remaining condensed.

As his thoughts rose and fell, the white steam lost support and finally dispersed.

Dense bubbles emerged bubbling from the lakebed, like chewing gum bubbles of varying sizes that burst only when reaching the water surface.

Internally, rich essence gradually seeped into Meng Chuan’s kidneys.

The surrounding muscles and fascia got drenched, slowly loosening and vibrating, feeling extremely refreshing.

Feeling his kidneys warm, Meng Chuan sat cross-legged at the lake bottom, hands on his waist, inexplicably thinking...

"Kidney mutation, besides altering the soul damage, could it also strengthen my large waist... making it more durable?"

As the essence supplied the kidneys, the muscles and bones quickly returned to their original state, no longer bizarre.

Meng Chuan then stared at his waist and kidneys.

Warm currents gathered more and more, until an indistinct aura began to swirl and form, not dispersing.

Once the aura coalesced into a mass, it finally changed direction, all converging into the kidneys.

The waist and kidneys swelled like inflating a balloon, sometimes expanding, sometimes contracting tightly, continuously changing.

Throughout this process, Meng Chuan’s pain was beyond others’ understanding, the sensation of the kidneys being gripped overwhelmed him.

This soreness and swelling were indescribable, known only to those who experienced it...

Soon, the situation intensified!

Meng Chuan was indeed a true man, an iron-blooded hero.

But enduring such pain at this moment, even if Ultraman came, the red light would be flashing...

The pain twisted his legs into a pretzel, collapsing at the lake bottom, gasping heavily.

Dense bubbles continuously floated up and burst from all around, Meng Chuan was already red-hot.

Gulping down mouthfuls of lake water, his mouth and nose were filled with bubbles reversing out.

How unbearable this was!

Donning a painful mask, he curled up like a shrimp, only feeling slightly better after adapting for quite some time.

The process of transformation was no easy task.

However, to accomplish great things, one must endure pain beyond ordinary endurance.

Endure!

"I endure!"

After a full hour, the tension in my waist and kidneys finally settled, and the strange phenomena around my body disappeared.

Meng Chuan felt as if an ordinary person had undergone a major surgery, losing several pounds when descending from the operating table!

After adjusting his breath for a moment, he turned to feel the gains from this ordeal.

What kind of reward is worthy of the agony akin to having one’s kidney wrung out!

...

He manipulated the water attribute energy with even greater ease.

With just a glance, the tumultuous lake surface returned to calm.

Meng Chuan had long since sat back down at the lake’s bottom, opening his eyes.

Within his kidneys, the accumulated essence of water attribute energy was completely depleted, and the transformation process concluded.

Under introspection, the filtering, metabolizing, and water-storing organ at the waist, glistened with rippling light.

Its surface seemed overlaid with a crystalline filter net, undulating like tides, showcasing its strong, enhanced functions, far surpassing before.

After experiencing it briefly, his gaze flickered with understanding.

His earlier suspicions were confirmed.

The breaking of the shackle by the water attribute refined energy indeed greatly benefited endurance and stamina!

Breaking the shackle took nearly half a day.

Plus, having his kidneys wrung for so long, yet he didn’t feel fatigued at all at this moment...

In Meng Chuan’s view, the ability to control kidney water and enhance soul-affecting power are merely bonuses.

Only endurance, however, stands as this experience’s focal achievement!

Why say so?

He previously reaped the benefits of strong endurance.

Others, when practicing martial arts, soon needed to rest, but not him.

Practicing martial arts tirelessly and cultivating for long hours notably benefited Qi blood enhancement and proficiency level limit-breaking.

As his cultivation delved deeper into intermediate, advanced, and even more challenging true skill martial arts, Meng Chuan found himself unable to continuously practice for long durations.

Such techniques as [Five Thunders Strike] and [True Martial Demon Vanquishing Nine Forms], always after practicing for a short while, he had to sit in meditation, restoring tense meridians and aching limbs.

Now, governing organ transformations directly underlie functional enhancements, how much of a boost does it?

One can only tell through personal experimentation.

Meng Chuan looked up, the cloud-covered sky struggled to reveal a tint of red light.

A harbinger of a coming storm, spreading across the sky.

Since nine days ago, the second sun was veiled by clouds.

Like darkness before dawn, building silently.

These days, Meng Chuan often pondered.

Is the principal about to make a breakthrough, perhaps building up a major event...

As he practiced his punches, he pondered:

"Wudang often said, nine being the ultimate number, upon nine days of cloud oppression, it’s the principal’s turn to strike back, isn’t it..."

Besides metaphysical conjectures, he could also perceive this.

Although weather ceased warming up, the once sporadic fire attribute spiritual energy now accumulates denser...

Heaven and earth are about to undergo a massive change...

...

Meng Chuan surfaced from the lake, his hair dry, his body still untouched by water.

According to normal time, it was now sunset.

Focus back on oneself.

Practice punches!

Test out this kidney transformation, see how endurance has improved.

By the way, see if he could capitalize on sunset, to trigger the insight between dawn and dusk.

It had been a long time since he last triggered it at dusk.

As his martial path deepened, his sixth sense became increasingly accurate.

Meng Chuan vaguely sensed, now’s the time!

...

Punch shadow scattered, diminishing, sunset insight long passed.

It was already dawn, leaving only sweat-drenched clothing.

Meng Chuan did not rest even for a moment, practicing [Five Thunders Strike] continuously for four hours!

This middle-level ancient martial true skill involved condensing energy, adjusting breath, visualization, converting five element fist paths, and martial arts routine complexities.

Other martial arts practitioners would practice a few rounds before exhaustion overcame them.

Initially, he could practice for two hours, an almost superhuman feat.

Now, having doubled that, his strength virtually beyond superhuman!

"My kidneys, already extraordinary god kidneys..."

Transformed kidneys, resilient as such...

With minimal breath adjustment, recovery came swiftly.

Meng Chuan glanced at his panel, deciding to push through the night.

With god-like kidneys, sleep seemed a waste of time.

He even thought, in the future, sleeping once a week, or even twice a month, would not be an issue...

[Five Thunders Strike: Perfection (97%) → (98%) Awaiting Limit Break]

[Limit Breaking Trait: Thunder Eyes (Advanced)]

"First practice the core method, then another four hours of thunder technique in the latter half of the night, the remaining two percent proficiency should just complete, marking my first manual limit break advanced trait..."

[Nirvana Transformation into Rainbow (Advanced)] is self-awakened, thus doesn’t count.

An advanced trait indeed!

Imagining Nirvana Transforming into Rainbow, Meng Chuan felt invigorated.

Starting with a round of Yu Anle Method, perfect for easing nearly overworked meridians.

For a long while.

About two hours passed, with deeper cultivation of mind techniques, Meng Chuan promptly stood tall.

[Tao Heart Planting Demon] cultivated to the eighth layer (75%), nearing another shackle breaking, approaching Martial Arts Guideline Perfection.
