Chapter 115 Tempering Golden Bones, High-Level Battle King
"For your current situation, the optimal ratio of Marrow Cleansing Pill to Bone Tempering Pill is 2:2. Your blood and qi accumulation is very high. One Marrow Cleansing Pill would be more than enough for an ordinary person, but you now need to use a huge amount of Marrow Cleansing Pill to activate the stored blood and qi."
Suo Da helped Chu Wen count the remaining Marrow Cleansing Pills and Bone Tempering Pills. Each Marrow Cleansing Pill costs 2 credits, and each Bone Tempering Pill costs 1 credit, totaling 1800 credits. He bought 600 of each.
According to the original plan, these should have been enough for Chu Wen to temper his golden bones, but unexpectedly, just to temper his limb bones, he consumed 380 of each of the two kinds of pills!
"The higher the level of bone tempering, the more pills you will need. Eventually, you'll probably need thousands of bone tempering pills."
Chu Wen nodded slightly. This wasn't cultivation; it was clearly burning resources!
No wonder even War Kings live such a difficult life; even the most basic bone tempering method to break through to War God requires an unknown amount of money!
If I hadn't come to the Longyu Training Camp, I would have had to kill so many monsters that my hands would be sore to earn enough money to buy Bone Tempering Pills.
In fact, the consumption of energy by ordinary martial artists is not as exaggerated as that of Chu Wen. Under normal circumstances, taking one Marrow Cleansing Pill can stimulate the blood energy stored in the body, and only Bone Tempering Pill is needed.
However, Chu Wen must take the Marrow Cleansing Pill at any time to ensure that his blood and qi surge out and outline patterns on the golden bone before a piece of golden bone can be considered to have been tempered.
At this moment, Chu Wen's current physical data was also projected into the sea of data.
The bones of the limbs have all been tempered, and after careful consideration, the skull will be tempered next.
In this era, apart from a few exceptional martial artists, most people have 29 pieces of bone in their skull.
Tempering the skull is several times more difficult and dangerous than other parts of the body. Most martial artists would leave it for last, but Chu Wenben had already tempered it once with his blood energy and knew every detail of each part of the skull like the back of his hand.
Under the effect of the Bone Tempering Pill, a layer of golden light covered the entire skull. First came a refreshing coolness, followed by the tearing sensation of an electric drill piercing the forehead, making the head buzz with pain.
Chu Wen must remain fully alert at all times to guide the medicinal effects and the flow of his blood and qi. He cannot afford any distraction during this process, otherwise all his efforts will be in vain, and the slightest carelessness could seriously injure him!
Time passed slowly, and Suo Da stood in the sea of data, watching Chu Wen temper himself with trepidation.
It saw that the number of golden bones on Chu Wen's skull had reached 28, and only one more bone was needed to complete the tempering process.
But for some reason, this last piece just wouldn't budge, as if there was a conflict between the blood and the medicinal power, preventing it from being forged.
Chu Wen had been trying to integrate these two forces, and this was the first time he had encountered a problem since the start of the Bone Tempering.
There were no conflicts with the other bones, but this one bone just couldn't be tempered.
"No, forcibly completing the tempering will cause the blood energy to go berserk."
Chu Wen could already vaguely sense the danger, so he could only temporarily abandon the tempering of the last piece of skull and redirect the excess medicinal power to the ribs.
Seven days later.
With the elixirs exhausted, Chu Wen now possessed 162 golden bones!
giggle~
With every step he took, Chu Wen could feel his bones clashing against each other, and his head was ringing with a constant clanging sound. He was extremely uncomfortable with this and it would probably take him a few more days to get used to the strange noise.
"Zoro, have you gotten the results from the analysis of my last piece of skull?"
Zoro rubbed his big head and said helplessly, "My data is incomplete, so I can't analyze the results. I can only make some guesses. It may be related to the Twilight District, or it may be related to the Yaksha statue we obtained before."
"Look at the appearance of the Yaksha statue."
The Yaksha statue was located on the other side of the Sea of Data, and Chu Wen could not get close to it, but he could still see its appearance from afar.
The exquisitely carved skull on that statue probably consists of more than 29 pieces.
"You mean that because I collected the idols, the number of my skulls shouldn't be 29, but more? But you can't figure out how to increase the number of skulls."
Chu Wen shared his guess.
Soda nodded and said, "Yes, but these are all just our guesses. I'm afraid if you want to fully temper the skull, you'll have to go and explore the Twilight Zone to find out more."
"Otherwise, if you cannot complete the tempering of this skull, you will never be able to break through to the God of War level."
Chu Wen understood Suo Da's meaning. He didn't want it to affect his current state of mind, but it was something he had to face head-on and couldn't escape.
Originally, he wanted to become a novice war god before entering the Twilight District near Jiangnan Base City, which would be safer, but now it seems he has no other choice.
Once Long Yu's training camp ends, he can contact He Luoyi and enter the Twilight Zone together.
To deal with He Luoyi, I need to make more preparations... The other party is the Demon Emperor. Although he is kind to me, he will definitely show his fangs and stab me in the end!
After tempering his golden bones, Chu Wen briefly activated his quantum computer network, and his realm information was updated to: High-level Battle King.
There was no need to hide these things. After replying to Lin Wei's messages, Chu Wen entered the second training ground in the southwest direction of the training camp—the Shattered Stone Chamber.
This is also where most martial artists gather to practice.
"Chu Wen? Long time no see. What have you been up to these past few days?" Hu Tao saw Chu Wen and hurriedly came out of one of the small rooms. "Wow, you're already a high-level battle king? Looks like you've used all your credits to buy pills. You're really rich."
"This rubble chamber is the best place to adapt to the Golden Bones; you need to hurry up and get used to it."
"We're heading to the Dark Nest in two weeks. Everyone's making final preparations. I'm going back to training. Shall we meet up with Chen Du for dinner tomorrow night?"
Hu Tao and Chen Du became acquainted with Chu Wen through a misunderstanding during the training camp. However, Chu Wen was aware of the principle of not being too familiar with someone he didn't know well, and he wouldn't do anything unnecessary.
"Okay, same place tomorrow night." Chu Wen said, then entered the rubble chamber and set the amount of rubble to the maximum.
Beep beep beep~!
Three mechanical commands sounded, and a dense barrage of stones rained down on Chu Wen.
The Stone Breaking Chamber requires practitioners to precisely break all the stones, hence the name "Stone Breaking Chamber"!
A barrage of rocks hurtled towards Chu Wen at incredible speed. If he were a War King who hadn't forged his golden bones, he would probably be riddled with holes in no time.
Chu Wen unleashed a speed that broke through the limit, without using much force, attacking the stone purely with the strength of his limbs.
Chu Wen's golden bones underwent two rounds of tempering compared to other martial artists, which not only strengthened their hardness but also enhanced their resilience, thus dissipating some of the force of impact.
The second strike can further crush the shattered rocks!
Although I felt a stinging pain all over my body, I could clearly see that it was just cracked skin, and the healing speed was even faster than the injury speed!
The journey to the Dark Nest is approaching, and only in this way can I adapt to the Golden Bones more quickly! To accomplish more within the Dark Nest!
