Free Web NovelChapter 15: Chapter 15: Grade 5 Body Tempering Cultivation Technique! Golden Body Technique
"Su Bai, you did well, slaying that Demon Fiend!"
The Great Xia official walked up to Su Bai and took a brown package from a nearby attendant.
He handed it to Su Bai.
"Here. This is your reward for slaying the Demon Fiend. Take it."
After handing the item to Su Bai,
the Great Xia official turned and left.
The prison was contaminated with the Demon Fiend’s aura, and a faint, foul-smelling Demonic Qi lingered in the air.
If not for delivering the reward, he never would have voluntarily set foot in this prison.
After receiving the reward, Su Bai opened the package.
He glanced at it casually.
Inside were several bottles of Elixirs of various sizes, along with some resources for strengthening his Physique.
And tens of thousands in Great Xia silver notes.
’These things are useless to me.’
Shaking his head, Su Bai paid it no more attention.
He had the Purification Tripod. He didn’t need so-called "resources" to break through Realms.
All he had to do was idle!
He gave a portion of the resources to Uncle Da.
Although the man refused several times, he eventually accepted them.
A moment later, Su Bai returned to his residential palace.
’Now, my Cultivation has reached the Ninth Level of the Tongxuan Realm. I’m not far from the First Level of the Qi Sea Realm!’
Su Bai looked at the Realm information displayed on his status panel and sighed with emotion.
He had gone from being a frail, lowly Prison Guard when he first transmigrated into this world to a Martial Artist at the Ninth Level of the Tongxuan Realm.
And it had only taken Su Bai a little over a month.
Thinking about it, it felt surreal, as if a lifetime had passed.
It was all a bit unreal.
’Breaking through to the First Level of the Qi Sea Realm requires twenty thousand Experience Points!’
Su Bai did some quick math. At his current rate of over eighteen hundred Experience Points per day,
he would only need ten days to break through to the First Level of the Qi Sea Realm.
He had also saved some Experience Points from before, which naturally shortened the time he needed to accumulate more.
’However, if I want to reach the Qi Sea Realm Ninth Layer, that will take a much longer time!’
Su Bai calculated based on the assumption that each layer would cost an additional ten thousand Experience Points.
He discovered that if he wanted to break through to the Qi Sea Realm Ninth Layer, it would take about eight months!
Compared to his previous breakthrough speeds, this was quite a long time.
’Looks like I need to increase the Purification Tripod’s intake efficiency!’
Su Bai thought to himself after a moment of reflection.
This was just the simplest calculation. In reality, the amount of Experience Points he could obtain was constantly changing.
As long as he kept processing more convicts, his Experience Point gains would increase.
And his breakthrough speed would naturally accelerate!
’I hope they lock up more serious convicts in the prison soon!’
With these thoughts, Su Bai fell into bed and went to sleep.
Time slowly passed.
About seven days later, the matter of the Demon Fiend invasion in the C-Class Prison was nearly resolved.
The incident had infuriated the Emperor of Great Xia, who ordered a full investigation.
Therefore, even high-ranking Great Xia officials had to personally and diligently conduct the investigation.
During the investigation, they not only exposed the Prison Chiefs who had colluded with the Demon Fiend...
...but also rooted out seven Court officials from within the Great Xia Dynasty who were involved.
After these individuals were dealt with decisively,
the higher-ups of the Great Xia Dynasty put forth a series of attractive offers to quickly replenish the prison’s staff. So, after just a few short days,
the prison’s manpower shortage was solved just like that.
The previous manpower shortage was only because the benefits offered were not good enough.
Among the new batch of recruits were some rather young Prison Guards, a few of whom were even younger than Su Bai.
They admired and envied Su Bai very much.
They were incredibly friendly whenever they greeted him.
After getting to know them for a while,
Su Bai asked them to keep an eye out for any high-profile convicts in the prison.
If they saw any serious criminals being brought in, they were to report it to him.
Of course, Su Bai didn’t expect them to work for free. He would occasionally gift them some cultivation resources.
These young Prison Guards were overjoyed!
They started working even harder!
For a time, wherever a high-profile convict appeared, Su Bai was sure to be there.
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
「Inside his personal palace.」
’I’ve finally broken through to the Qi Sea Realm Ninth Layer!’
Su Bai added the Experience Points to his Realm.
At that moment, his Martial Arts Cultivation finally broke through to the Qi Sea Realm Ninth Layer!
Thanks to his diligent "escorting" during this time,
Su Bai’s Experience Point rewards had skyrocketed once more.
That’s why he was able to soar from the Ninth Level of the Tongxuan Realm all the way to the Qi Sea Realm Ninth Layer so quickly!
Now that his Cultivation had reached this Realm, Su Bai was considered a top expert within the C-Class Prison.
Barring any hidden Martial Dao masters, Su Bai’s overt strength could be considered among the very best.
Of course, after Breaking Realm, he immediately used the Concealing Breath Scripture.
He adjusted his aura to display his Cultivation at the Sixth Level of the Tongxuan Realm.
It was much safer that way.
「One early morning.」
A young Prison Guard arrived at the cell of the Celestial Blade Disciple, Chen Tiansheng, carrying what was clearly a lavish meal.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
He put down the meal.
He banged loudly on the iron bars.
"Chen Tiansheng! Get up and eat!"
"Eat up and be on your way!"
The young Prison Guard glanced at the extremely emaciated Chen Tiansheng, who was slumped inside,
he said impatiently.
Compared to when he was first imprisoned, Chen Tiansheng was now incredibly gaunt.
He was covered in grievous injuries, his aura faint.
He was almost just skin and bones.
Though he was nearly two meters tall, he probably weighed less than 110 pounds.
It was clear that during this time,
Chen Tiansheng had definitely received "special treatment" from the Prison Guards.
After smelling the aroma of the food,
Chen Tiansheng paid no mind to the young Prison Guard’s words.
He crawled all the way to the meal.
Then, he began to wolf it down.
He stuffed his mouth, chewing voraciously.
"BLECH!!"
But he had swallowed too much, too fast, and his shrunken stomach couldn’t handle it.
He promptly threw it all back up.
The smell was incredibly foul!
Not far away, a young, splendidly dressed Prison Chief was watching him intently.
This person was none other than Su Bai!
’Once Chen Tiansheng dies, I’ll be able to obtain one of the Cultivation Techniques he practiced while he was alive!’
’Hopefully, I can get a decent Body Refining Technique!’
Su Bai thought silently to himself.
Ever since hearing that Chen Tiansheng was about to be executed, Su Bai had rushed over at the first opportunity.
Back when he was first brought in, he had taken a blow from the Red Blood Chain and suffered only a minor injury.
Clearly, his Physique was extremely strong!
He coveted such a Body Refining Technique.
When afternoon came, Prison Guards escorted Chen Tiansheng out.
He was taken to the execution grounds and executed on the spot.
「In his personal palace.」
In Su Bai’s mind, within the Purification Tripod, the speck of light belonging to Chen Tiansheng flickered.
"You may randomly acquire one of the Cultivation Techniques practiced by the Celestial Blade Disciple, Chen Tiansheng, in his lifetime. Use?"
After Su Bai chose to use it, ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
orbs of light in various colors floated before Su Bai’s eyes.
Su Bai randomly obtained a golden orb of light.
"Congratulations, Tripod Master! You have obtained the Fifth-Grade Body Refining Technique—Golden Body Technique!"
The next moment, countless images of cultivation flooded into Su Bai’s mind!
