Chapter 35: Bone Forging to the Marrow, Jade Bones Have Formed!

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

In Wushan, thorns were everywhere.

Liu Hongluan carried Long Fei on her back, and the clothes on her feet and hands were torn by thorns, leaving small bloodstains on her fair skin. However, Liu Hongluan paid no attention to the injuries.

“Tik tok.”

Long Fei had fallen into a deep coma, and fresh blood continued to drip from his wounds.

But Liu Hongluan couldn’t stop to tend to his injuries because she had no time to spare. If she stopped, the pursuer known as “Ghostface” would catch up.

“Fei Ge, don’t fall asleep, hold on…”

Tears welled up in Liu Hongluan’s eyes. Before Long Fei fell unconscious, he had insisted that she leave him behind and not seek help from Lu Changsheng. However, Long Fei’s injuries were severe, and she had no one else to turn to for help.

Long Fei had fought “Ghostface” several times despite his injuries to delay his pursuit until Liu Hongluan reached Wushan. But even so, “Ghostface” had been relentless in chasing them, like a shadow that wouldn’t disappear.

Liu Hongluan had personally drawn a map of the deep parts of Wushan, so she remembered the location of the ice mountain. Now, she could only pray that Lu Changsheng was still in the deep parts of Wushan. Otherwise, their fate would be sealed this time.

“Ghostface” continued to follow Liu Hongluan closely. In fact, he could have caught up with her, but he chose to hang back at a distance.

His goal was to find the martial artist who had helped Long Fei kill Shen Lun.

“Is the martial artist who killed Shen Lun hiding in the deep parts of Wushan?”

“If it weren’t for this woman, I probably wouldn’t have found them.”

“Escape, hurry and escape, find someone who can help you.”

“When the time comes, I won’t waste any time investigating; I’ll capture all of them in one fell swoop!”

“Ghostface” muttered to himself in a low voice. He only wanted to capture them all. As for how strong the martial artist who killed Shen Lun was, he didn’t care at all. Below the Divine Power Realm, he had never encountered a worthy opponent. Even at the peak of his strength, “Dragon Slaying Knife” Long Fei had been no match for him, and he had been hired by Shen Lun to deal with Long Fei.

“Ghostface” had been in seclusion all this time, trying to break through to the Divine Power Realm, which was why he couldn’t intervene earlier.

In the deep parts of Wushan, the further they went, the colder it became. Liu Hongluan, carrying Long Fei on her back, was running out of energy. Although she was also a martial artist, she had only reached the Bone Forging Realm, and her stamina couldn’t compare to that of a Dirty Refinement martial artist. Managing to carry Long Fei to Wushan was already a testament to her determination.

Finally, just when Liu Hongluan was on the brink of exhaustion, she suddenly shivered all over her body. Then, she saw an ice mountain not far ahead.

“Ice mountain, it’s really an ice mountain…”

Liu Hongluan’s heart leaped with joy. Since she had found the ice mountain, Lu Changsheng might be inside it. Perhaps they could be saved!

So, with a renewed surge of strength, Liu Hongluan carried the unconscious Long Fei and stumbled toward the ice mountain.

…

“Great Sun Bone Forging Technique, complete, +5 Comprehension.”

A line of small text appeared before Lu Changsheng’s eyes.

“Huh?”

“This Bone Forging Technique is actually a fifth-tier technique. Previously, the six Bone Forging martial arts were all fourth-tier techniques.”

“I’ve completed all seven Bone Forging martial arts in just half a month…”

Even Lu Changsheng was surprised by the speed of his martial arts cultivation during this period.

But when he thought about his comprehension exceeding 300 points, most martial arts no longer held any secrets for him. With a little contemplation, he could grasp their essence. Once he comprehended the essence of a martial art, practicing it only required replenishing energy, making it relatively easy.

Moreover, Lu Changsheng had ample Nine Treasure Bone Tempering Powder, so he had no shortage of energy.

In just half a month, he had completed all seven Bone Forging martial arts.

However, despite all this, Lu Changsheng’s bones had not yet been refined to the marrow, nor had they reached the “Jade Bone” realm.

“It’s just a little bit more. Even without Bone Forging martial arts, I still have the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant.”

“Using the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant as an auxiliary method should have a good effect.”

Lu Changsheng decided to give it another try. So, he began to use the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant.

“Lin!”

Lu Changsheng chanted the nine-character mantra, and his voice caused vibrations throughout his bones.

The surface and interior of his bones, everything trembled as the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant resonated within his bones.

Once, twice, three times…

Lu Changsheng was completely immersed in the vibrations of his bones. It was as if he could see something mysterious deep within his bones.

That was the bone marrow!

“Boom.”

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Lu Changsheng felt that one of the vibrations caused by the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant had broken through a barrier in his bones. The vibrations of the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant instantly affected the bone marrow.

Suddenly, a sharp pain spread throughout his entire body. This pain seemed to reach his soul, and even with Lu Changsheng’s iron willpower, he felt like he couldn’t endure it.

He quickly snapped out of the strange “sensation.”

“Bone Forging to the Marrow!”

Lu Changsheng instantly understood what had happened.

The Nine-Character Thunderous Chant had actually reached the marrow. The bone marrow was the core of the bones and even served as a blood-producing organ. It was vital yet fragile. The slightest force could damage it.

However, Lu Changsheng was ecstatic. Bone Forging to the Marrow! This was the highest realm of bone cultivation!

His body was now incredibly tough, and all aspects of his physical qualities had greatly improved. His strength, reaction speed, and more had all received a significant boost.

Even his Lightning Kill Technique, when activated, would be much faster and more powerful.

Then, Lu Changsheng accessed his attribute panel to check the condition of his body.

Host: Lu Changsheng Comprehension: 367 (quite promising) Great Sun Bone Forging Technique: Complete Nine-Character Thunderous Chant: Proficient

Lu Changsheng looked at the comprehension value on the attribute panel, which had now reached an impressive 367 points. He was not far from reaching 400 points. This was the result of practicing martial arts during this period, combined with the completion of seven Bone Forging martial arts.

Perhaps due to this significant increase in comprehension, he had also achieved proficiency in the Nine-Character Thunderous Chant.

“Previously, after the blood exchange, my physical qualities experienced a significant improvement.”

“Now, with Bone Forging to the Marrow, my physical qualities have improved significantly once again.”

“The Jade Bone realm has been achieved, and next up is Refining the Organs!”

Lu Changsheng didn’t pay much attention to the increase in his strength. With his current strength, even after the blood exchange and achieving Jade Bone status, he couldn’t imagine anyone below the Divine Power Realm being a match for him.

His top priority now was to improve his martial arts realm and strive to reach the Divine Power Realm as soon as possible.

“I should leave Wushan…”

Lu Changsheng was very satisfied with his trip to Wushan. He had spent over a month in the deep parts of Wushan. In just over two months, he had reached the Jade Bone realm. Now that he had achieved the Jade Bone realm, he no longer needed to stay in the cold environment.

“Boom.”

Just then, there was a faint noise from outside the cave.

“Someone’s here?”

Lu Changsheng’s heart stirred. Few people ventured into the deep parts of Wushan, as it was extremely cold. In the past month, he hadn’t seen anyone else here.

“Swish.”

Lu Changsheng’s figure flickered, and he silently left the cave.
