As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills-Novel2

205 Unmatched Warrior

It was early in the morning, and the mist was thick. action

Jiang Ming was practicing his fist techniques in his courtyard. The blood Qi emitted from his body was extremely weak, and it seemed to even be inferior to unranked martial artists.

However, every punch he threw seemed to contain a tremendous force.

In Jiang Ming’s body, all his blood, flesh, bones, and tendons were empty at this time. His blood Qi was so thin that it was almost non-existent. Only by careful examination could one perceive his extremely weak blood Qi.

However, every trace of his blood Qi was as bright as sunlight, clear and pure, and contained exuberant vitality. At this time, it was slowly seeping into his flesh and blood, tempering his body and causing it to undergo the final transformation.

This process would build his physical body to be able to break through to become a martial artist at the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, it was extremely difficult to walk this path. One had to be able to connect with their soul and integrate it into their blood Qi. However, one’s blood Qi had to be completely condensed for this.

Jiang Ming had been practicing every day for five years since the first time his blood Qi had gone back into his body. Today, he was almost finally done with the process.

“Only one last bit left!”

The last bit of blood Qi was about to completely integrate into his body.

Jiang Ming had been on the path of martial arts for almost two hundred years. Now that he was finally going to take this last step, he did not know how to feel.

He remembered picking herbs in Peace Town like it was just yesterday…

Finally, the last trace of blood Qi completely integrated into his body. At this moment, Jiang Ming was like a mortal who had never practiced martial arts. His body was empty.

However, at the same time, an unprecedented change also happened in Jiang Ming’s body.

At this moment, his body was actually emitting strands of crystalline light. His entire body seemed to be like glass, and his muscles were clear. His blood, bones, and tendons seemed to be vaguely visible.

His body trembled, and a thunderous sound erupted from him at this moment. Wisps of black mist and mud continued to ooze out of his pores.

As it glowed, it seeped out something. Jiang Ming’s eyes rolled back from the mist, and he quickly blocked his nose with spiritual power.

In the end, residual blood oozed out and tore his body apart. Jiang Ming seemed to have been cut by a thousand knives, and his whole body was covered in blood.

However, at the same time, a surge of power emerged from his core, creating new blood that re-entered his body.

“Is this the rumored marrow and meridian cleansing?”

Jiang Ming was a little excited. He had been in the world of immortal cultivation for decades and had heard of such a thing. However, he never thought it would happen to him.

He thought that such a thing was reserved for the top geniuses in the world of immortal cultivation!

However, in the records of various ancient books, there were some natural treasures that could cleanse one’s marrow and meridians and improve one’s aptitude. However, such items were extremely rare. Even the major forces of the Litfire Region could not such treasures. Legend had it that only the blessed grotto-heavens of the Feather Kingdom had these kinds of treasures.

Jiang Ming grinned and then looked at his own bloody body. He was a little frightened.

The marrow and meridian cleansing recorded in those ancient books were not so ridiculous. At most, it could only refine some impurities in the body and improve the affinity of the marrow and meridians with spiritual energy. He had never heard of it tearing the body apart and causing blood to spurt out.

Was he more powerful than the geniuses recorded in the ancient books here?

Jiang Ming felt that his guess was most likely correct.

However, this was only his first transformation, and it was already so intense. If he continued to break through the realm of martial arts in the future, would his whole body be torn apart?

Jiang Ming shook his head. It took him two hundred years to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm of martial arts.

While he was thinking, the transformation was still going on.

After a full fifteen minutes, the transformation gradually slowed down. In the end, all his injuries were healed, and his body was no longer glowing. Everything returned to normal.

Jiang Ming stood in the courtyard, feeling as if his entire body had been refurbished. His every move contained power far beyond the past.

“I’ve finally reached the Foundation Establishment Realm of martial arts!”

Jiang Ming was disgusted by the blood coating his body. He hurriedly cast the Misty Rain Technique to clean himself.

Then, Jiang Ming changed his clothes, stretched, and casually performed a set of fist techniques. His limbs moved like water. It felt as if he was one with the world and nature.

His muscles looked ordinary, but they seemed to have a crystalline temperament. He seemed to have grown a bit taller, and his figure was leaner.

Now, in Jiang Ming’s body, there was no longer any blood Qi that existed alone. His blood Qi was completely integrated with his blood and flesh. As long as he willed it, his blood Qi could burst out in an instant. It was more fierce than usual, and the power contained in it was also incomparable.

“The physical body is the foundation of martial arts. All the power of martial arts exists by relying on the physical body! If the end of immortal cultivation is immortal ascension, then what is the end of martial arts?”

Jiang Ming suddenly had a trace of curiosity. There were legends of immortal cultivators breaking the void and becoming true immortals in this world. However, there were no legends of martial arts becoming true immortals. Did they not exist? Or were these legends lost to history?

If they did not exist, then he would like to see what was at the end of the path of martial arts.

“However, for now, I should first test my physical strength and see how far it has evolved.”

Jiang Ming walked to a stone table and picked up a small black shield from the table. He touched the various potholes on the surface of the shield and muttered, “It’s been so many years. I’ve used all kinds of techniques. However, I haven’t been able to pierce through this shield. Today will be the day I shatter it.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he put his left hand behind the shield and his right hand punched the surface of the shield like lightning.

There was no powerful fluctuation, only a muffled sound, and then, the shield that had accompanied Jiang Ming for decades finally shattered into pieces.

Jiang Ming was not surprised, but he felt that this was not the limit, so he immediately took out a red sword.

It was the Scarlet Separation Sword!

He flicked his finger, and the Scarlet Separation Sword suddenly turned into a red beam of light, circling a few times in the courtyard. Under Jiang Ming’s control, it burst out with all its power and short toward him.

Jiang Ming’s eyes were calm. He did not use any defensive techniques. However, he exerted the power of his physical body to the extreme. He suddenly punched forward and collided with the sword that was shooting at him.

With the sharp clang of metal, the Scarlet Separation Sword’s light surged as it was repelled.

Jiang Ming’s body did not even shake. After all, his martial arts body was at the Foundation Establishment Realm level and could almost ignore the attack of a flying sword at the eighth level of the Qi Refinement Realm.

Jiang Ming mainly wanted to test the strength of his body with a middle-grade magical weapon.

Then, he looked at his hand. There was a clear cut on it, and his palm was covered in blood. However, if one looked carefully, they would see that it was just a scratch.

Jiang Ming was pleasantly surprised. He had just stepped into the Foundation Establishment Realm of martial arts, and his flesh and blood had just begun to transform. However, he could already withstand a middle-grade magical weapon’s attack with only some scratches.

Moreover, the Scarlet Separation Sword was one of the best middle-grade magical weapons!

“I’ll consolidate it a little more. My physical body should not be at any disadvantage against a middle-grade magical weapon at all!”

...

Jiang Ming was extremely satisfied with this result.

Today’s results were worthy of the spirit stones he had invested all these years.

Jiang Ming’s goal was to advance in both the path of martial arts and the path of immortal cultivation at the same time and become an unmatched warrior.

“I’ll rest for a while and then go make talismans!”

Jiang Ming looked at the sky before he made himself a large meal. Then, he left the courtyard and walked to Yue Changmu’s cave abode.

The two had worked together for eight years. They had made a name for themselves in Xiaoqian Mountain.

Moreover, the two of them were quite compatible with each other, and their friendship was quite strong.

“However, this old cultivator’s talent in immortal cultivation seems to be much stronger than mine. His cultivation has become more and more profound these years, and he has earned so many spirit stones for his cultivation. He seems to be on the verge of a breakthrough!”
