Chapter 30: Vajra Fist
Crack!
As Wang Chen clenched his fist tightly, the muscles in his arm instantly hardened like iron, tendons bulging beneath the skin, and his joints emitted a crisp, resonant sound.
He was brimming with power.
He had never anticipated that the body cultivation effects of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra True Method would be so formidable!
Just by beginning, he gained 1 point in his Physique attribute, and his vital energy had swelled to at least twice its previous volume.
Martial artists in the Mortal Realm cultivate vital energy, with the pinnacle being the Innate Realm.
An innate martial artist’s combat ability can rival that of a low-level Qi Training cultivator, and with divine weapons in hand, they might even challenge mid-level Qi Training practitioners despite being mere mortals.
Many innate strong fighters choose to enter the Dao through martial arts, often opting to become body cultivators that best align with their innate strengths.
Wang Chen, of course, would not tread the path of a body cultivator with limited potential.
Yet, the Heavenly Dragon Vajra True Method could compensate for his physical shortcomings, bolstering both his combat prowess and survival capabilities.
Therefore, even at the cost of precious Heavenly Merit, Wang Chen was resolved to advance this body-refining technique!
At that moment, he realized he was coated in a layer of oily grime, exuding a foul odor.
Wang Chen hastily took a shower to cleanse the impurities that had seeped from his body.
After casting the Cleansing Technique twice in succession, he finally felt clean and invigorated.
However, though his body was now clean, his stomach roared like thunder.
A wave of hunger surged through him, with every cell within his body clamoring for nourishment.
Wang Chen felt as though he could devour an entire ox!
He quickly retrieved the last ten pounds of magical beast meat from his storage bag and set it to stew in a large pot.
Overcome by hunger, he couldn’t wait for the meat to fully cook and eagerly fished it out, slicing off pieces with a dagger, dipping them in salt, and wolfing them down.
In the end, he consumed all ten pounds of magical beast meat without feeling satiated.
His appetite had surpassed his usual intake several times over!
Only then did Wang Chen truly grasp the "terror" of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra True Method.
Its effects were potent, but the demands it placed on resources were equally immense.
According to the technique’s records, the best supplementary aid for cultivating the Heavenly Dragon Vajra True Method is Vajra Ghee.
A single bottle of Vajra Ghee, valued at ten spirit fragments, is sufficient for only one cultivation session. Without this supplement, the efficacy of the cultivation would be significantly diminished.
To achieve optimal results, one must apply a bottle of Vajra Ghee each time!
Moreover, a steady diet of meat is indispensable.
And it must be magical beast meat, with higher grades being preferable; otherwise, it would adversely affect the cultivation of this technique.
Monks aren’t just eating plain fare!
Wang Chen thought to himself, feeling a twinge of regret, as the two spirit fragments in his storage bag seemed to tremble in apprehension.
Before, he had given Little White thirty pounds of magical beast meat and fifty catties of spiritual grains. The remaining rations would barely last until the summer harvest, and he had just finished the leftover meat as well.
He needed to purchase a stockpile of spiritual rice and magical beast meat.
Moreover, even if he couldn’t practice the Heavenly Dragon Vajra True Method every time, he would still consume a bottle of Vajra Ghee.
Wang Chen also had to spend spirit stones.
Otherwise, the future cultivation effects would be poor.
That would be meaningless.
The question was, how could he earn such a large sum of spirit stones?
Hunting magical beasts?
The original owner had lived with his father until Wang Shaoyuan went missing and then entered the Yunyang Sect to farm.
For seventeen years, he had never stepped outside the outer sect area.
He had no hunting experience and had hardly seen any magical beasts.
Doing sect missions?
He had little experience there too, and it was quite dangerous; it was even more unrealistic to expect to earn spirit stones right away.
Weapon refining? Alchemy? Setting up a stand?
As Wang Chen pondered, he stepped into the small courtyard outside.
He practiced the Vajra Fist.
The Vajra Fist was a set of martial arts included with the Heavenly Dragon Vajra True Method.
It had a total of nine moves.
The purpose of this set of martial arts was mainly to refine the residual medicinal power of the Vajra Ghee while guiding the Qi and blood within his body.
Strengthening muscles and bones, transforming the essence!
The Vajra Fist technique was not complicated; in fact, it was quite simple, with each move having no embellishments.
Even though it was Wang Chen’s first time practicing, he could easily get the hang of it.
However, after practicing it again and again, Wang Chen felt the profound depth of this accompanying martial arts.
It was completely different from the mundane martial arts he had imagined!
This point was soon verified on the Cultivation Panel.
Vajra Fist (Entry Level): 1/100
Mundane martial arts would not show up on the Cultivation Panel.
Since the Vajra Fist could be listed in the skills column, it meant it was truly a celestial art!
This martial arts was evidently easy to learn.
With only 3 points of comprehension, Wang Chen mastered the basics after practicing it twice.
What would it be like to cultivate it to mastery, basic level, or advanced level?
Wang Chen suddenly grew interested.
He cast aside his worries about earning spirit stones and repeatedly practiced the Vajra Fist.
Gradually, he accumulated experience.
…
The next morning, after completing his "morning class" cultivation, Wang Chen left his home and hurried to Yunshan City.
Before entering the city, Wang Chen had altered his appearance to an ordinary one.
So plain that he could blend into the crowd without being noticed.
He had possessed the Thousand Transformations human skin mask for a while, but today was the first time he truly used it.
With his new look, Wang Chen arrived at a branch of the Four Seas Trading Association.
The Four Seas Trading Association had several branches in Yunshan City, and their businesses were quite similar.
He did not go to the same one as last time.
After entering, Wang Chen found the shopkeeper, took out his legal sword, and straightforwardly asked, “How many spirit stones can I get for this sword?”
This legal sword was also obtained from a traveling merchant, and its quality was quite good.
Wang Chen had originally planned to keep it for himself.
But now, with his family nearly out of food, he decided to sell it to solve his urgent needs.
As the saying goes, being cautious prevents major mistakes; considering that this sword was black market goods, he used the Thousand Transformations to disguise himself.
Even though the Four Seas Trading Association had a very good reputation.
“This is a mid-tier first-tier legal weapon…”
After evaluating, the shopkeeper said, “It’s well maintained, with no damage. If you want to sell it, this shop will offer one hundred fifty spirit fragments for it.”
One hundred fifty spirit fragments?
Wang Chen really did not expect this legal sword to be worth so much.
But as a mid-tier weapon, if he bought it himself, its price in the weapon shop would definitely be more than one hundred fifty spirit fragments.
The other party’s offer also had to leave room for negotiation.
Wang Chen replied, “Two hundred!”
The shopkeeper shook his head repeatedly, “That’s impossible. I can offer at most one hundred sixty.”
After some back-and-forth bargaining, the legal sword was finally sold for one hundred seventy-five spirit fragments.
Wang Chen was quite satisfied.
He trusted the Four Seas Trading Association’s reputation and knew they would not overcharge him.
Wang Chen did not take all the spirit stones.
He used seventy-five spirit fragments to exchange for eight bottles of Vajra Ghee.
He also managed to haggle down the price difference of five spirit stones.
After leaving the branch of the Four Seas Trading Association, Wang Chen went to the grain store.
When he inquired about the current rice prices, he was shocked.
The price of white corn had actually risen to six spirit fragments per pound!
Previously, the grain store purchased spiritual grains for just fifty pounds per spirit fragment, which was equivalent to two spirit fragments per pound.
The normal rice price was around four spirit fragments.
Now it had risen to six spirit fragments, and the grain shop owner acted like he couldn’t care less whether or not Wang Chen bought it.
With gritted teeth, Wang Chen took out sixty spirit fragments to purchase one thousand pounds of white corn.
He had barely put the spirit stones in his bag, and he had already spent more than half!
But Wang Chen’s shopping spree was not over.
