Proficiency: Cultivated 10 Million Times

Chapter 19: Incomplete Body Tempering Techniques

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The second tent was filled with miscellaneous items. There were rare ores, some sealed plants, and even the precious ingredients that Wang Yu wanted.

Compared to the weapons tent over there, there were clearly more people gathered here.

From time to time, someone would complete the transaction and leave quickly with a box.

[Mystic Crystals: Superior purity, high-grade building materials. 220 crystal dollars for a piece. If you buy more than 500 pieces, you can enjoy delivery services.]

[Blood-ignition grass root: Upper-middle quality. It is a must-have for martial artists in the Blood-ignition Realm. 2200 crystal dollars for a stalk. Currently 500 stalks in stock.]

[Blood Pork: The item to replenish vital energy and blood. Excellent food for martial artists in the Body Tempering Realm. 1,300 crystal dollars per pound. Currently 1,000 pounds in stock.]

…

Wang Yu was dazzled by what he saw in this tent. Many things that he had never heard of were placed in front of him, which indeed broadened his horizons.

There were at least six or seven types of precious materials suitable for Body Tempering martial artists in this tent, and each type had quite a lot in stock.

It seemed that the Nightsleepers knew exactly what their clients needed most.

Instead of the other meat with strange names, Wang Yu chose the blood pork that sounded relatively familiar in the end.

At least this was pork, although the color of the meat was a little too red.

There were also a few people shopping for blood pork.

“I want four pounds of bloody pork.”

“I want eight pounds.”

“I want six pounds.”

…

As more customers gathered, the seemingly large amount of 2,000 pounds of blood pork was actually sold out very quickly.

“I want 15 pounds. I’ll come and get it later,” Wang Yu said directly as he approached and paid for his goods.

15 pounds of meat didn’t look much, but it still cost him nearly 20,000 crystal dollars. It could be considered a luxury.

The Nightsleeper glanced at Wang Yu, nodded, and handed over a receipt.

One can use this receipt to pick up purchases before the end of the gathering.

After receiving the receipt, Wang Yu quietly disappeared into the crowd and looked at the other items.

He still had less than 10,000 crystal dollars left, so he could still buy other things he wanted.

The entire gathering lasted for a day. However, since everything was limited in stock, those who came late might not have bought their desired items as they were mostly sold out.

Therefore, those who were familiar with this gathering would rush over in the early morning.

At this moment, more than a thousand people had already gathered in the open space. All of them were wearing masks and kept a low profile.

Wang Yu was glad that he made the right decision to buy Blood Pork in the beginning. At this rate, these cultivation treasures would probably be sold out soon.

The fourth tent seemed a little deserted. Not many people were wandering around here.

After Wang Yu entered, he observed the surroundings and realized that the items sold here were all body tempering cultivation techniques.

[Eight Extreme Fists of the West Gate: Retained the complete cultivation methods for the first two levels. The learner can cultivate to the second level of the Body Tempering Realm. Fist technique is smooth and has a good advantage in deflecting and blocking. Price: 1,000 crystal dollars..]

[Tai’s Swift Saber: Retained the complete cultivation methods for the first three levels. The learner can cultivate to the third level of the Body Tempering Realm. The saber technique is fast, fierce, and powerful. Price: 1,500 crystal dollars.]

[Double Form Fist of Tiger and Crane …]

Scattered cultivation methods appeared on the table in the form of books. There were about 20 to 30 sets.

Most of them were incomplete and could only be used to temper the body in the early stages. There was no way to cultivate them in the later stages.

These seemed a little useless. No wonder no one came here.

With this money, wouldn’t it be good to join a martial arts school and receive guidance from a famous master? Wouldn’t it be better than reading these incomplete booklets?

Not to mention that most of the people who came here were martial artists and already had their own cultivation techniques. The path of cultivation was clear.

Among martial artists, it was rare for them to suddenly switch to other martial arts halfway through their cultivation. The amount of energy and time consumed was unimaginable.

The only people who might buy these incomplete copies might be martial artists who had already cultivated to the fourth or fifth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

They had been stuck at this cultivation realm for many years and had reached a bottleneck in their comprehension of the Body Tempering techniques. They bought these incomplete books to try their luck.

Perhaps they would be able to understand something from the essence of other body tempering techniques.

In fact, Wang Yu was also quite interested in body tempering techniques other than the Shadowless Fist.

In his opinion, since he only knew one set of Shadowless Fist, the fist technique that could be evolved in actual combat was too monotonous.

If he happened to encounter an opponent who could counter his fist techniques in the future, he would definitely fall into a bitter battle.

If he knew many fist techniques, movement techniques, and leg techniques, his combat strength would definitely surpass opponents of the same level who only trained for a single technique.

Of course, this assumption was mostly a fantasy for others.

After all, just the Body Tempering technique alone could take decades of research and polishing. If they were to cultivate another one every day, it would simply kill them.

However, Wang Yu was different. He only needed to accumulate the proficiency of the Body Tempering technique to continuously improve. There was almost no bottleneck to speak of.

Under such circumstances, he was completely capable of cultivating more Body Tempering techniques.

Moreover, he had a different idea that he needed to test.

After making up his mind, Wang Yu began to choose the incomplete books on the table. In the end, he bought several sets in one go and spent the remaining 10,000 crystal dollars.

With that, his shopping trip ended.

This so-called Nightsleepers’ Gathering was indeed very high-class. There were many types of items sold inside.

Many rare items could be found here.

No wonder it could keep getting bigger in scale. There were such gatherings all over the world.

Wang Yu roughly estimated that in just a day, Nightsleepers would be able to earn tens of millions of dollars from this gathering. Just thinking about it was terrifying.

If they held a larger gathering in the other core areas of the human race, the benefits would probably be even more difficult to estimate.

With such an idea, the purple coal mine that Sun Chengshan was operating was really nothing.

At noon, Sun Chengshan finally arrived.

Without another word, they each grabbed a nondescript wooden crate and hurried away from the gathering.

They slowed down when there was finally no one around.

“Have you spent all the money?” Sun Chengshan asked first.

“Yes, I bought blood pork.” Wang Yu nodded.

“Hehe, I bought this too. This meat is quite cost-effective. It won’t be a loss.”

Under the mask, Sun Chengshan’s good mood could not be hidden.

“When we go back this time, we have to cultivate properly. These precious ingredients were hard to come by. We can’t waste them. If I’m lucky, I might be able to improve my cultivation further.”

Wang Yu’s heart skipped a beat. “Could it be that you have a chance to break through to the final sixth level of the fist technique this time?”

Sun Chengshan shook his head. “How can it be so easy to master the sixth level of the Shadowless Ghostly Hands? It’s just that with the help of precious ingredients, I have a chance to improve my current body tempering cultivation. At that time, I think I should have a chance to break through to the sixth level!”

The two of them walked for a while in the forest before taking off their robes and masks. They walked all the way back to the island town.

Then, in order to avoid trouble, the two of them took a return airship immediately to Island Town 732 that night. They did not stay for a moment more.

In their absence for two days, nothing happened at the dojo or the mine.

Song Hezheng was handling the matters of the dojo with ease.

Everything in the mine was still the same. It was on track in an orderly manner. With Director Zheng Anbang and the guards behind him, no one dared to have any thoughts about this mine.

Sun Chengshan was also able to shift his focus slightly back from the mine and plunged into his cultivation.
