Chapter 163: Chapter 148: Upgrade and Profound and True Martial Arts

Translator: 549690339

Time flies.

Two days later.

Quanjiang City, morning.

In Yinghui Grocery Store, various strange sounds resonated.

There was a steady and heavy heartbeat, like the sound of a drum.

There was a swooshing sound, like waves crashing on the shore. And there was a continuous and deep, mountain-like breathing.

In the center of the courtyard.

Chen Sheng’s upper body was bare, revealing well-defined muscles as hard as metal.

Every inch of his body was covered with beads of sweat.

Under the sunlight, they reflected a dazzling gleam.

Whoosh!

Chen Sheng pushed himself up with both hands.

His tall and burly body leaped from the ground.

In the air, muffled sounds immediately followed.

It was the sound of a massive object colliding and rubbing with the air.

Stepping.

He landed steadily on both feet.

“Huff

Chen Sheng couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

It was winter now.

The warm air quickly condensed into white mist in the air and rose.

Chen Sheng closed his eyes.

The various sounds in his body gradually subsided.

When he opened his eyes again, the courtyard had returned to its original tranquility.

Moving to the stone table, he picked up the cup of water and gulped it down.

The boiled water inside was gone in an instant.

Setting the cup down.

Chen Sheng looked around and couldn’t help but let out a faint sigh, his face showing a hint of helplessness.

The brick ground in the courtyard was filled with traces of dents and cracks everywhere.

This was a result of his rapidly growing physical attributes and difficulty controlling his own strength.

The only exception was the area surrounding the spiritual medicine field.

Chen Sheng was afraid of destroying the hard-grown spiritual medicine, so he didn’t go near that area except when picking the herbs.

Nevertheless,

At this moment, the courtyard looked like a mess.

Right now,

Chen Sheng felt a little guilty as he looked towards the other side, Zhou Li’s room.

He could even imagine how Zhou Li would be furious when he returned to the store.

“Sigh—

Chen Sheng let out a long breath.

Before he could get someone to repair the courtyard, he thought it would be better not to let Zhou Li return. With that in mind,

He walked towards the kitchen.

White mist lingered.

Above the stove, the glowing spirit medicine soup bubbled and steamed.

This was the spiritual medicine that Chen Sheng had been brewing since two hours ago.

At this moment, it was just the right time.

Seeing this,

Chen Sheng  directly picked up the iron pot.

The scalding hot pot did not cause any harm to his palm.

He poured the spirit medicine soup into a cup.

Then Chen Sheng went straight out the door and headed toward the riverside.

Two minutes later.

Riverside.

Chen Sheng’s figure appeared.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Listening to the sound of water flowing, he felt refreshed and at ease.

[Chen Sheng]

[Strength: 158] [Agility: 157] [Constitution: 173]

[Skill Points: 257]

As his basic attributes improved each day,

Chen Sheng’s attribute growth rate had reached a shocking extent.

In just two days,

His strength and agility attributes both increased by fifty-five points.

The constitution attribute even increased by sixty points directly.

The skill points had also reached a level sufficient to upgrade his Profound and True Martial Arts.

Last night, Chen Sheng picked up his long-unused Xingyi Fist and Three-Body Technique.

Compared with the Breathing Technique, practicing the Xingyi Fist fighting method required more control over his force.

After nearly two hours of practice, Chen Sheng barely adapted to his current body strength without causing extensive damage to the environment in the courtyard.

At this moment,

Chen Sheng slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at the skill column on the panel.

[Profound and True Martial Arts Level 2: 97/200,000]

Now,

It was time to upgrade.

According to Shen Zi Ming, it would be either today or tomorrow.

The entrance to the Sealed Land would be found.

Before setting off,

Chen Sheng planned to maximize his strength.

Thinking of this, he didn’t hesitate at all.

Chen Sheng focused his attention on the words Profound and True Martial Arts.

Upgrade!

The words became blurry.

The skill points quickly decreased. In a short breath, they were fixed again.

[Skill Points: 58]

[Profound and True Martial Arts Level 3: 0/500000]

Chen Sheng let out a soft cry.

Looking at this, Profound and True Martial Arts was not like the other breathing techniques Chen Sheng practiced, which only had three levels. Moreover, the skill points needed to upgrade were becoming more and more exaggerated.

This made Chen Sheng somewhat disappointed.

He originally thought that this upgrade would bring Profound and True Martial Arts to perfection, leading to a leap in strength and a better chance against the unknown strength of Zhao Zhenfeng.

But now, that hope has fallen through.

However, Chen Sheng didn’t feel too discouraged.

In the long run, the higher the limit of Profound and True Martial Arts, the more advantageous it would be for him.

Thinking about this.

Chen Sheng held his breath and waited silently.

However, this time, he didn’t enter the illusion.

Boom!

An enormous torrent of muscle memory and information streams instantly entered Chen Sheng’s body.

“Ergh-

The sudden and overwhelming pain swept through his entire body, causing Chen Sheng to let out an anguished howl.

Blood vessels crawled up the whites of his eyes, quickly dyeing them bright red.

Due to the sudden intensity of the pain, Chen Sheng could no longer control the strength of his own body for a moment.

The ground beneath his feet instantly collapsed, as cracks rapidly spread out in all directions at a visible speed.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

His heart beat at an unprecedented rate, pounding rapidly like thunder.

Under the influence of the heartbeat, Chen Sheng’s blood surged even faster through his body, causing waves of tidal-like wailing sounds. Perhaps sensing Chen Sheng’s pain at the moment, the surrounding water spirits became somewhat anxious.

The originally calm river surface gradually stirred with ripples.

It seemed as if there was a raging undercurrent beneath the surface of the river.

Crack… snap!

Due to the overwhelming pain, Chen Sheng almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, his legs strained just in time so that he barely managed to stabilize his posture.

Chen Sheng’s facial features twisted in pain, and his body instinctively arched up, like a cooked shrimp.

The muscles that he had built up like boulders in various parts of his body were constantly compressing and contracting under a series of teeth -gritting friction noises.

He could clearly feel that each fiber of his muscles was breaking and healing at an extremely high frequency.

And as the reformed muscle fibers grew thicker, they were forcibly compressed, continuously increasing in density and hardness.

Not only that,

With the constant increase in muscle mass, Chen Sheng could clearly hear the miserable cries of his bones in his body, unable to bear the load.

Until finally, Crack!

Thud!

The bones in his legs could no longer withstand the pressure and broke

directly.

Chen Sheng  knees slammed into the ground.

“Ergh-‘

With his bloodshot eyes wide open, he let out a beast-like roar.

The pain that swept through his entire body constantly assaulted his reason, making him desperately want to find a way to vent.

As a result,

Chen Sheng slowly lifted his arm.

The steel muscles tinged with metallic luster constantly made ear-piercing friction noises.

But eventually, he chose not to smash it down.

Now, Chen Sheng’s physical strength was not to be taken lightly.

If he recklessly destroyed things, he could cause a disaster and attract attention.

He could only choose to silently bear the pain brought about by the transformation of his body. For a moment,

The sound of the river washing,

The sound of bones breaking,

And the thunderous heartbeat sounded together by the riverside.

Among them,

Muffled groans filled with pain were occasionally mixed in.

As time slowly passed,

Two hours later,

These sounds gradually faded away..
