Chapter 75: The Terrifying Giant Power (Part 1)

  "Jiuxian Gong" is a relatively special kind of physical exercise method, the word "xian" fully explains the characteristics of this set of exercises.

  Ordinary body training methods focus on 'training', only emphasizing the strengthening of power and physical fitness. After practicing, the muscles are often well-developed, with a strong waist and back, far surpassing ordinary people.

  As for 'Jiuxian Gong', while practicing, it also requires 'tempering'. What is meant by 'tempering' is to temper and refine, like refining a tool, to hammer out the impurities in the material, leaving only the essence.

  So, the practice of 'Jiuxian Gong' is completely different from ordinary physical exercises. It has an additional step of 'tempering', which treats the body as a tool and uses iron hammering to temper out impurities in the body, leaving only the essence.

  Therefore, when practicing the 'Nine Forgings', the body will not become as robust and muscular as with ordinary physical training methods, and there won't be much difference in appearance compared to ordinary people. However, the power contained within the physique is far superior to that of martial artists who practice ordinary physical training methods.

  Xuantian drank the blood of the Blackline King Snake, greatly strengthening his physique and increasing his stature. During the New Year's festival, Xuantian was only 1.72 meters tall, but now he has grown to 1.75 meters.

  It's only been a little over a month, mainly after drinking the blood of the Black-striped Snake King, my body swelled up and suddenly grew much taller and stronger.

  If he continued to cultivate ordinary physical exercises, Xuan Tian would soon become the third master of Fu Wei Gang, just like Cheng Jifeng, a member of the Cheng family. He would be 1.9 meters tall, or even two meters, with arms as thick as an average person's thigh.

  However, by practicing the 'Nine Forgings', such a situation will not occur. Impurities are constantly being refined away, leaving only the essence. The body size won't increase, but strength will surge explosively.

  Xuān Tiān's current physique is already very powerful, equivalent to the third stage of 'Jiǔ Duàn Gōng', the only difference being that impurities have not been refined out.

  So, the first three forges of cultivation are very simple. The 'practice' is already in place, and what's left is just 'tempering'.

  On the wooden cabinet for storing utensils in the space ring, three black iron hammers were placed on top, with weights marked on them, which were one hundred catties, one thousand catties, and ten thousand catties.

  These three black iron hammers were forged from special materials, although not a treasured item, they are extremely sturdy and used by Old Man Nine Furnace for forging equipment as well as 'tempering his body'.

  The equipment for refining Huang Jie, and before practicing the first three hammers of 'Jiuduan Gong', use a 100-pound black iron hammer.

  Refining the Xuanjie stage's treasure equipment, and cultivating the 'Nine Forgings Art' third forging, using a thousand jin heavy black iron hammer.

  Refined earth-grade treasure and after cultivating 'Nine Forgings Art' for three forgeries, use a 10,000 jin heavy black iron hammer.

  Xuantian took out a hundred jin heavy black iron hammer and started pounding his body according to the "Nine Forgings" breathing method and forging technique.

  If you just use an iron hammer to hit your body, there is only one outcome: injury. Even if you use internal force to protect yourself and can withstand it for a while, you cannot withstand it forever.

  But the Xuantian Yunzhuan 'Nine Forgings' method of running Qi, the position of running Qi, and the position of iron hammer striking are exactly the same. Every time the iron hammer strikes down, the body trembles with the strike, and impurities will be expelled from the body along with the running internal Qi.

  This physical training technique that uses the body as a tool for tempering, apart from 'Nine Forgings Exercise', there is no second kind in the world.

  Although the 'tempering' process was strange, the effect was quite rich. As impurities were hammered out of his body, Xuan Tian felt that the power inside his body had become even more refined and easier to control. With the same intensity of physical strength, he could exert even greater force.

  "The First Forging" of the "Nine Forgings Technique", which expels impurities from the body, is relatively the lowest level. Xuan Tian held a 100-jin heavy black iron hammer and simultaneously performed the Nine Forgings Technique and the Nine Forgings Hammer Method. After about an hour of forging, the first forging was successfully cultivated.

  After about an hour of continuous tempering, Xuan Tian Fei didn't hurt his body at all, but instead his strength became more and more refined. He swung the black iron hammer with increasing ease and precision.

  Xuantian's body, which originally had some muscle hypertrophy, appeared slightly smaller, but his strength, after being tempered, increased by about 50% compared to before. His single-arm strength almost reached 3,000 jin, showing that this 'tempering' step was indeed extraordinary in its effect. Compared to ordinary physical training methods, the addition of this step resulted in a much stronger power at the same level.

  The first forging practice was successful. After resting for over ten minutes, I adjusted my breath and adapted to the changes in my body. Then, I started the second forging practice.

  The practice of each of the 'Nine Forgings' has different methods for circulating energy and forging, as well as varying degrees of intensity. The difficulty level of each successive forging is several times greater than that of the previous one.

  However, for Xuan Tian, whose physical strength had already reached the third tempering, the second tempering was still easy, it just took several times more time than the first tempering.

  Every hour or so, Xuantian rested for over ten minutes. He rested a total of four times and spent more than five hours in total. The second exercise was completed.

  Xuantian's body, due to the impurities being refined, had shrunk a bit more, his physique becoming even stronger and more refined. The muscles on his body no longer appeared strong and sturdy, but were transforming into a perfect streamlined shape.

  The second refinement was successful, and Xuan Tian's power became even more refined and stronger. The strength of his single arm had almost broken through 4,000 jin, and the effect of the 'Nine Refinements Technique' was quickly and prominently displayed.

  After replenishing food, Xuan Tian's breath was adjusted for about an hour, and then continued to cultivate the third refinement.

  The third refinement was many times more difficult than the second, but with Xuán Tiān's physical strength having reached its peak, it was only a matter of time.

  After another day, Xuan Tian successfully cultivated the third refinement of 'Jiuzhao Gong', and his single arm strength reached a terrifying 5,000 jin. Such enormous power was not even comparable to that of a Sanzhong warrior in the Xiantian realm using their Xiantian true energy.

  Xuān Tiān, however, is merely a simple physical strength. If combined with the prenatal true energy, the explosive power would be overwhelming, and one strike would be enough to severely injure or even kill a three-realm warrior in the prenatal realm.

  The third refinement was successful, and the next fourth refinement would be even more difficult. Moreover, Xuan Tian's current physical strength was only equivalent to the peak of the third refinement. Before entering the fourth refinement, he still needed to cultivate his physical strength and physique, which would require an even longer period of time.

  He put away the black iron hammer in his spatial ring and began to cultivate the fourth Forging Technique.

  Nine days later, Xuantian's physique and strength reached the minimum requirement of the fourth tempering. His originally perfect body became even stronger, his power also surged, and his single arm strength increased faster than in the previous three tempers, breaking through from 5,000 catties to 7,000 catties.

  The first step of 'refining' has been completed, and a thousand jin heavy black iron hammer was taken out. Xuan Tian began the second step - 'tempering'.

  His single arm strength, although it had reached the terrifying seven thousand jin, could easily lift a one thousand jin heavy black iron hammer, but to wield the fourth Forged Body Hammer Technique with ease was not easy. After all, a weight of one thousand jin was too heavy, lifting it up was easy, swinging it about at will was difficult.

  A thousand jin heavy black iron hammer is a tool for refining Xuanjie treasure, the fourth forging, is a refining artifact technique that can be cultivated as soon as it enters the pre-heavenly realm. It seems that the fourth forging must be cultivated to the great completion realm in order to easily wield the thousand jin heavy black iron hammer.

  Xuantian's two hands grasped the dark iron hammer and began the fourth forging of his body.

  Each strike has impurities discharged from the body along with the innate true energy, making the physique more refined and the strength more pure.

  The fourth refinement of the hammering lasted for four whole days, and finally, Xuan Tian successfully refined it to perfection, reaching the Small Accomplishment Realm. His body was once again tempered into a perfect streamlined shape, his strength surging up another notch, with a single arm now capable of exerting a terrifying 9,000 jin of force.

  This is just the fourth small success. If you cultivate to great success, ten thousand jin of giant strength will be easy and effortless, swinging a thousand jin iron hammer with ease.

  The fifth refinement requires a breakthrough in cultivation to reach the middle stage of the Innate Realm, which is after the fourth refinement.

  The fourth refinement has just reached the small success realm, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in strength. However, this requires time, and it is necessary to cultivate to three refinements before the fourth refinement can be cultivated to the great success realm.

  The power of the fourth refinement is now sufficient to leave this place. Xuan Tian has been trapped in this stone room for 17 days, and he doesn't want to stay a second longer. Compared to when he first entered the Beast Mountain Range, Xuan Tian's strength has improved by leaps and bounds. The Huang family in Beidao County has always been shrouded in crisis; it is time to clear the obstacles for them.

  Xuantian raised a thousand-pound black iron hammer, mobilized the pre-heavenly true energy, poured it into the hammer, and used his greatest strength to strike the wall in front of Jiu Chui's old man with a loud crash.

  A loud explosion, and indeed, the wall that Xuantian had tried several times before but failed to break through, shattered with a loud crash after Xuantian cultivated the "Nine Forgings Technique" to the fourth forging. Behind the wall, a mountain cave passage was revealed.

  He put away the black iron hammer into his spatial ring and held up the heavy Yue sword, then walked into the mountain cave tunnel ahead.

  The Space Ring was a rare treasure, even among the top-notch experts of the Tianjie realm, only one in ten had it, and naturally couldn't expose it, so they could only use it secretly. Xuan Tian threaded a string through it and wore it as a necklace around his neck.

  With Xuantian's current terrifying power, the 10-odd jin heavy Frost Snow Sword and the 128 jin heavy Heavy Mountain Sword are no different, both as light as a feather. Using the Heavy Mountain Sword, Xuantian can still quickly deploy the "Absolute Shadow Sword Technique" without any hindrance.

  Nature, the famous sword Cold Snow Sword was eliminated, and the middle-grade treasure Xuan Yue Sword in the Mystic Stage can increase the attack power of Xuantian by about 60%, making it more suitable as a weapon for Xuantian.

  The sword is not placed in a spatial ring, but held in hand, it's a habit.

  Now that he is about to leave the stone room, in the Beast Wasteland Mountain Range, he may encounter other warriors. To avoid suddenly taking out his sword from the spatial ring when he has no choice but to use it, and exposing the secret of having a spatial ring to other warriors.
