Eternal Reverence Chapter 374

"Zhao Linghua, you are just making use of your cousin, Zhao Fenghua as he is a Listed Cadet. In the future, I will not suffer from your bullying anymore."

Luo Yan spoke complacently while she thought:

With Li Fuchen12Li FuchenMain Protagonist around, a Listed Cadet is nothing. A single slap from Li Fuchen is still going to send Zhao Fenghua flying.

Of course, she wasn't going to divulge Li Fuchen's strength. From what she reckoned, Li Fuchen should still be cultivating his qi as the main aspect in the future. Since he was already so incredible in body refinement, his qi cultivation shouldn't be too inferior too. At least in the Heaven Dipper Realm, there shouldn't be too many opponents comparable to him.

"Haha, this is the funniest joke I have ever heard. Just a measly underling is enough to give you so much confidence. It is truly hilarious." Zhao Linghua laughed heartily with a face of despise.

"You are truly don't know what is death. Let's see if you still dare to speak like this if Senior Zhao Fenghua is here." Yang Biao was speaking fiercely with a half a swollen face.

Just as Luo Yan was about to continue speaking, Li Fuchen said, "Don't bother about them. They are just some n.o.bodies."

"You say I am a n.o.body?" Zhao Linghua's eyes were wide opened while feeling extremely angered.

This was the first time, she, Zhao Linghua was so angry.

If this wasn't the Demonic Fragrance Pavilion, she would surely teach Li Fuchen and Luo Yan a lesson.

"What is this kid? He is rather arrogant. It is a pity that Zhao Fenghua must not be trifled with. If his elder female cousin is offended, there will definitely be suffering in the future."

"A newborn calf doesn't fear tigers. He seems unfamiliar and must not be an outer cadet. I reckon he is preparing to partic.i.p.ate in the new cadet enrollment!"

There were plenty of Outer Inst.i.tute Cadets on the fifth floor. Everyone was shaking their heads and lamenting at Li Fuchen's ignorance.

A listed cadet had absolute strength and was comparable to a 1st level Reincarnation Realm martial artist.

Once the meat arrived, Li Fuchen and Luo Yan started eating.

Cla.s.s 5 demonic beast meat was indeed worthy of its fame. Putting aside its taste, the qi power contained inside was extremely impressive. Li Fuchen could tell that the dishes didn't only include cla.s.s 5 demonic beast meat but various herbs. Some dishes were directly cooked with the herbs and meat, while there were some dishes that made the herbs into sauces to smear on the meat. The herbs greatly enhanced the nouris.h.i.+ng effects of the demonic beast meat. Furthermore, there were plenty of other ingredients that Li Fuchen wasn't able to identify for the moment.

"What much does it cost for this meal of meat?" Li Fuchen inquired.

Luo Yan replied, "Gold coins cannot purchase the meat dishes here. For our meal, it will need around five low-grade spirit stones."

Her Luo Clan might have more than 10,000 spirit stones, but that was the entire Luo Clan's wealth. Every year, she would be given with around 100 low-grade spirit stones, hence, five low-grade spirit stones was a huge sum for her.

Of course, once she became an Inner Inst.i.tute Cadet or got accepted as an In-Room Cadet by an Outer Inst.i.tute Elder, the clan would surely put in all efforts to nurture her. Her annual low-grade spirit stones given would also increase significantly. Right now, she was only at the 5th level of Heaven Dipper Realm and didn't need that many low-grade spirit stones.

"Five stones? That is quite expensive." Li Fuchen shook his head. Why did eating have to be this expensive too?

If he was to auction five low-grade spirit stones, it would be worth a few tens of millions of gold coins.

"What a boor. Even a meal of meat is too expensive, he must have not seen the world." Finally seeing a chance, Zhao Linghua immediately mocked.

Her Zhao Clan was a huge clan that had been around for many generations. Even though the clan had declined in recent years, but their acc.u.mulated wealth was still much superior to any regular clan. She was issued with 300 low-grade spirit stones every year, as such, it was understandable that her younger cousin Zhao Fenghua was issued with 1000 low-grade spirit stones, much more than what she had.

"Let's go! The air isn't even fresh when having a meal with such people around."

After finis.h.i.+ng the meat dishes, Li Fuchen and Luo Yan left.

Zhao Linghua was so enraged that her teeth were clenched tightly while she swore to teach Li Fuchen and Luo Yan a vicious lesson.

The duo started to stroll around South Forest City's inner city.

If Raging Inferno City had more Concoction Masters and more elixirs, then the South Forest City was developed in all aspects. The city might be inferior to Raging Inferno City in terms of concoction, but the other aspects were much superior.

In this place, there were countless weapon workshops, elixir shops, herb stalls.

Just as Li Fuchen and Luo Yan was about to enter a large weapon workshop, a group of people escorted someone out from inside.

It was a young lady who was being escorted and she was emitting an extremely n.o.ble and respectable aura, with the addition of a trace of barbaric aura.

Luo Yan quickly pulled Li Fuchen to the side and whispered to him, "Li Fuchen, this is the Marquis Residence's Third Young Lady. You must not offend her."

Li Fuchen naturally knew the significance of the Marquis Residence. They signified the sky of the South Forest Region. In the South Forest Region, the Nanlin Marquis Residence was the one that called the shots.

After the Marquis Residence's Third Young Lady walked far away, Luo Yan continued, "The Marquis Residence's First Young Master and First Young Lady are the cadets of the Violet Flower Martial Inst.i.tution. The Third Young Lady's apt.i.tude is slightly inferior, thus, she is a cadet of our South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution."

Violet Flower Martial Inst.i.tution is one of the two major martial inst.i.tutions in the Violet Flower Kingdom. They were above the 24 regions and 24 martial inst.i.tutions and were considered the top martial inst.i.tution. But the Violet Flower Martial Inst.i.tution had an extremely high demand for apt.i.tude and also a high demand for the clan background. It was also known as the Royal Martial Inst.i.tution.

Li Fuchen nodded and didn't say anything.

He had just arrived and naturally didn't wish to provoke such individuals with an influential background.

After strolling fro an entire day, Li Fuchen had a great understanding of the South Forest City.

If this city was brought to the East Unicorn Continent, it would probably make everyone go insane. Including the pinnacle experts like the Evil King.

This place had countless earth cla.s.s weapons, elixirs, herbs. One or two of these items were enough to drastically increase their strength and there wasn't a need to explore the treacherous ruins.

Nighttime arrived, the duo returned to their respective rooms.

Bursting out the dragon elephant power, Li Fuchen's body was coated in pale golden l.u.s.ter, as though a pale golden divine elephant.

Li Fuchen noticed that after the Blood Corpse Elixir's evil intent vanished, his control had been enhanced greatly too. Previously, when he controlled 2000 strands of dragon elephant power, it was rather taxing, but now, he didn't feel as taxing when he was controlling 3000 strands of dragon elephant power.

"It seems like the Blood Corpse Elixir's evil intent is corroding my mental state." Li Fuchen thought to himself.

"Right now, there isn't a hurry to strengthen my dragon elephant power. 3000 strands of dragon elephant power are almost my limit. If I wish to increase my strength to the next level, dragon elephant power will need at least 6000 strands."

Li Fuchen didn't know about the other body refinement techniques, for the Dragon Elephant Body Forging Fifth Chapter, 1st level Reincarnation Realm is 300 to 400 strands of dragon elephant power, 2nd level Reincarnation Realm is 750 strands of dragon elephant power, 3rd level Reincarnation Realm is 1500 strands of dragon elephant power, 4th level Reincarnation Realm is 3000 strands of dragon elephant power. According to the pattern, the 5th level or Reincarnation Realm will be 6000 strands of dragon elephant power. Each level of increase in strength will require double the amount of dragon elephant power.

Putting aside the problem if Li Fuchen could control the power, even if Li Fuchen wanted to increase another 3000 strands of dragon elephant power, just the resources required wouldn't be a small sum. With the number of low-grade spirit stones he possessed now, it would be hard to make ends meet.

"I might not be able to increase the dragon elephant power, but if I can increase the proficient of body refinement martial arts, it will also increase my strength."

In just a few short months, Li Fuchen had already cultivated the Metal Bone Fist to the perfection stage. He was just one step before comprehending the Metal Bone Fist Intent.

One had to admit that the cultivation of martial arts relied on the acc.u.mulated experience. Li Fuchen's qi martial arts foundation was extremely robust, hence, his comprehension speed was extremely fast. But his foundation on body refinement martial arts was close to zero, thus, he was still unable to comprehend the Metal Bone Fist Intent until now.

But during these days, Li Fuchen could faintly feel that he was making a breakthrough on the Metal Bone Fist.

***

A week's time pa.s.sed by in a flash.

On this day, in the guest room's secret room.

Buzz!

In the center of the secret room, Li Fuchen executed a fist in the air, producing a warping effect that could be hardly seen by the naked eye. As for Li Fuchen's fist, it was unknown when it had been covered by a layer of black color.

"I finally comprehended the Metal Bone Fist Intent." Li Fuchen's eyes flashed with delight.

After comprehending the Metal Bone Fist Intent, Li Fuchen felt that his fists had turned into weapons, indestructible weapons. The layer of qi on his fist was extremely dense, like metallic skin.

If he was only confident in fighting against 5th level Reincarnation Realm martial artist previously, right now, he had the confidence to fight against elite 5th level Reincarnation Realm martial artist.

***

The annual South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution's enrollment was the liveliest day in South Forest City. This year wasn't an exception either.

During these few days, there were plenty of young people arriving at the South Forest City. Some of them did things in a low-profile and wouldn't have any conflicts with others. But there were more who were exuberant and would start a dispute just because of some minor disagreement.

Of course, no one dared to start a fight in the city and would generally fight outside the city.

Li Fuchen shook his head when two young men had a dispute on the street and were hooted to battle outside.

It was unknown why, as compared to these young people, Li Fuchen felt he was an outsider and didn't have that fired-up feeling. It felt as though he was a senior watching the juniors.

"It seems like strength has a huge influence on a person."

With the combat strength of Reincarnation Realm, Li Fuchen didn't put these younger generations in his eyes. He was just like an exceptional expert who didn't have the desire to win against ordinary martial artists.

"This year's enrollment is much livelier than normal. It is rumored that this year, there are three 6-star bone frame new cadets that the South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution is enrolling. Those three already have the cultivation above the 7th level of Heaven Dipper Realm." At the side, Luo Yan sighed with sorrow.

"Why don't they enter the South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution sooner?" Li Fuchen asked.

Luo Yan said, "Most of the people who entered the martial inst.i.tution is to obtain higher-tiered cultivation techniques and martial arts. Before this, they must have not fully digested the mystic cla.s.s peak-tier cultivation techniques and martial arts, therefore, they aren't in a hurry to enter the martial inst.i.tution."

"Look, that person is Le Changfeng, the heavenly prodigy from Evergrace City's Le Clan. He is 26 years old this year and at the 8th level of Heaven Dipper Realm. It is said that he has already cultivated the Le Clan's mystic cla.s.s peak-tier cultivation technique, the Everjoy Scripture to the highest rank. He simply requires a few moves to kill a cla.s.s 4 demon."

Luo Yan suddenly pointed a handsome and refined young man at the end of the street.

"26 years old and he already cultivated a mystic cla.s.s peak-tier technique to the highest rank?" Li Fuchen looked over.

Le Changfeng sensed something and looked back as well.

Le Changfeng frowned and withdrew his vision. He initially thought that Li Fuchen was an expert? But why was his gaze so special.

"He isn't simple." Li Fuchen nodded slightly and didn't mind it.

In the Seven Color Continent, be it cultivation or comprehension of martial arts, it was much easier than on East Unicorn Continent. If the elite heavenly prodigies were to s.h.i.+ft over from the East Unicorn Continent, they might not lose out to Le Changfeng.

Sometimes, the environment would decide everything else.

Two individuals might have the same innate potential, but in different environments, their development speed were drastically different.
