Chapter 36: 36. One Slash, Ten Shadows
"Swoosh!"
Lin Fei noticed that when he swung his saber, it wasn't just the usual nine saber shadows that appeared, but ten.
This was terrifying. Despite only adding one saber shadow, it was on the basis of the nine saber shadows, which significantly increased the power of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique.
"I wonder what level this one saber with ten shadows is considered now?" Lin Fei was curious. After all, even the founder of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique had only been able to master nine shadows.
However, Lin Fei had not forgotten his task of perfecting four other saber techniques. Most likely, others had already mastered them and it was only a matter of time before they take on the tasks.
True enough, over the next ten days, people came to instruct him for an hour on different saber techniques, which greatly improved Lin Fei's progress in the Nine Shadow Saber Technique, reaching 18%.
With the Nine Shadow Saber Technique advancing by leaps and bounds, the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique also progressed rapidly. Lin Fei ate one Blood-Increasing Pill after another and was able to refine three or even four pills each day. As a result, he was approaching a breakthrough in his Giant Whale Body Refining Technique.
"Boom!" Suddenly, one morning, Lin Fei's body trembled and his blood and qi surged, even radiating outside of his body. His terrifying blood enveloped his entire body, making him look like a bloody figure.
"After enduring numerous hardships, your Giant Whale Body Refining Technique has finally broken through to the ninth level."
"After many days of hard work, your Vajra Iron Cloth has broken through to the eighth level."
A series of voices suddenly sounded in Lin Fei's mind.
"They both broke through together?"
Lin Fei was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect to receive good news so early in the morning. And it was two pieces of good news.
"System."
Lin Fei directly brought up the system panel.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Arts Realm: Body Refining Ninth Level
Giant Whale Body Refining Technique: Ninth Level (1% progress)
Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist: Transcendence (1% progress)
Nine Shadow Saber Technique: Perfection (18% progress)
Vajra Iron Cloth: Eighth Level (1% progress)
Tendon Transformation and Bone Forging Technique: Seventh Level (44% progress)
Flowing Clothes Skill: Transcendence (0% progress)
Lin Fei saw the system panel.
His martial arts realm had reached the Body Refining ninth level. This also meant that he was finally close to acquiring inner power. And he was just one step away from being able to give birth to the inner power.
Of course, this step was very difficult to cross. In fact, there were many martial artists at the Body Refining ninth level. But not many of them were able to give birth to the inner power.
The proportion was probably only about fifty percent. Almost half of them remained at the Body Refining ninth level, unable to give birth to inner power and become acquired martial artists.
Lin Fei had the system panel, which was very intuitive. He knew that only when the progress of his Giant Whale Technique in the ninth level reached 100%, would he be able to give birth to the inner power.
But the speed of cultivation from the eighth to the ninth level was already very slow. It would probably be even slower to reach the limit of the ninth level and give birth to the inner power.
Lin Fei's Nine Shadow Saber Technique had reached 18%.
In terms of saber techniques, Lin Fei had surpassed many people in the Nine Profound Sect. Even many senior brothers and even acquired experts in the sect cannot compare to Lin Fei in saber techniques. He estimated that his saber techniques could rank among the top three in the Nine Profound Sect.
"My current strength is Body Refining ninth level. And I'm stronger than the average perfection realm in saber techniques. Maybe, if I encounter a criminal like the Wind Chasing Fragrance again, I won't need to waste so much time. I can just defeat him with one strike!" Lin Fei's eyes flashed with a hint of radiance. He now had absolute confidence.
Although he had not yet acquired inner power and was not an acquired martial artist, his strength was already comparable to that of an ordinary acquired martial artist.
"Saber techniques can actually be improved. I just need to practice other saber techniques and then release guidance tasks. But I have no contribution points at the moment.
Moreover, the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique can still be enhanced with Blood-Increasing Pills. It's not completely ineffective, just weakened a lot. If I want to reach the limit of Body Refining, don't know how many Blood-Increasing Pills I need to take. It's impossible to exchange them with contribution points alone."
"If I could refine Blood-Increasing Pills myself..." Lin Fei thought of a solution. He had long thought about alchemy, and he had also inquired about it.
Generally speaking, people could not refine pills, not even acquired martial artists. The reason was simple: the inner power of acquired martial artists cannot leave their bodies. Only innate martial artists, who had innate inner power in their bodies that never depletes, could refine pills.
The sect's pills were mostly refined by innate martial artists. But Lin Fei knew how valuable was the time of an innate martial artist. They would not spare time to refine pills for him.
Occasionally, some other people could also refine pills, such as immortal masters, but they were extremely rare and had to have special qualifications.
Nine Profound Sect did not have any immortal masters, but Lin Fei knew that Lin Miao was actually an immortal master, although a mediocre one who had not yet reached the first layer of Qi Condensation and could not refine pills.
"Wait a minute, does he need to reach the first level of Qi Condensation to refine pills?" Lin Fei wondered. As long as he had spiritual power, Lin Miao should be able to refine pills.
"Maybe I can have Lin Miao try," he thought. "But I need to figure out the recipe for the Blood-Increasing Pills first..."
