Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Regeneration of Amputated Limbs_1

Actually, the enhancement of defense was not novel, since it was inherently a martial arts of defense, what excited Ling Xiao was the increase in strength.

For martial artists, the assistance of strength was simply too significant.

At the same level of cultivation, when the Gang Qi was close, strength could be decisive.

If he could cultivate the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique to the sixth rotation, Ling Xiao believed his strength would take another substantial leap forward.

But considering that others would not stand still either, he naturally wouldn’t become complacent; the stronger the enhancement, the more satisfied he naturally was.

At the seventh rotation, one could forge a golden body: during the display of the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique, the body would take on a golden hue, with a layer of film-like substance clinging to the skin’s surface, capable even of repelling an enemy’s attacks.

The eighth rotation was even more powerful: martial artists of the same level could hardly inflict any damage, and it could reduce the damage from martial artists one level higher by half, and three-tenths from those two levels higher!

The ninth rotation, known as the golden body of the Nine Rotations, meant that as long as he had gold, unless it was a fatal injury, even if limbs were severed or the body maimed, he could heal and regenerate!

...

Seeing the ninth rotation, Ling Xiao’s heart trembled with excitement.

Wasn’t this astonishing? Although it required the consumption of gold, which was more precious than silver, the fact that he could regenerate lost limbs meant that as long as he didn’t die, there was a chance of survival.

How terrifyingly formidable was this realm?

It was truly a top-level martial arts!

He had reason to believe that if he could practice the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique to the ninth rotation, unless his neck was cut off, or he was killed in one strike, then he would be almost invincible.

"Where on earth did they find such an exceptional defensive martial arts?"

Visions of his loved ones swam through Ling Xiao’s mind, and he couldn’t help feeling a bit sad.

He was still too weak. If he were powerful enough, who would dare harm his family?

He must continue to become stronger, strong enough that no one would dare to provoke him!

With that thought, Ling Xiao took out a piece of gold from Li Xingyun’s storage ring and squeezed it in his hand.

During practice, the gold actually turned into golden powder and then slowly penetrated his arm, and from there diffused throughout his body.

Although it was uncomfortable at first.

He adjusted after a while.

The first rotation was relatively easy to practice; it only took him one shichen, and the full ten taels of gold in his hand were used up.

After the first rotation of the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique, Ling Xiao examined his body and noticed that the membrane was much more resilient than before, almost as if it were cast from steel.

He felt a bit excited, so he continued to practice.

As expected, the second rotation proved much more difficult than the first; it took a full three hours and a hundred taels of gold to finally achieve it.

This time, the strengthening was in the sinews and bones, and he could clearly feel it.

But this tenfold consumption was indeed hard for Ling Xiao to bear.

All the scraps of gold in Li Xingyun’s storage ring were used up, just barely managing a breakthrough.

"Now only a golden undergarment is left. The quality of this gold undergarment is very high, almost a thousand taels of gold. Coupled with some miscellaneous gold items in this residence, I estimate that breaking through to the third rotation should not be a problem."

With this thought, Ling Xiao left the practice room and then looted the residence.

The gold items in this residence were left there by Second Master Ling, totaling about a hundred taels.

But added to the gold undergarment, it should be enough.

After returning to the practice room, Ling Xiao began practicing once again.

This time, the practice took even longer, a full six hours, before he managed to break through to the third rotation of the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was full of vigor and felt extremely energetic, as if he could go on for more than a dozen days without sleep without any issue.

He hadn’t expected that this defensive martial art would have such benefits.

However, he ran into trouble when he wanted to continue cultivating, because he had run out of gold. No wonder no one practiced this kind of defensive martial arts.

It was simply a defensive martial art for the filthy rich.

Eating gold!

Ling Xiao hesitated for quite some time before deciding to make a trip to Tianfeng City, where he exchanged all of his silver, the herbs harvested from the Mountain and River Map, and the younglings of the Monster Beasts for gold.

After calculating, it came to more than twenty thousand taels of gold.

"Well, now I’m flat broke again," he said.

Ling Xiao gave a wry smile. He had a considerable amount of silver to begin with, but now he was left with just over twenty thousand taels of gold, which he was certain would be used to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique.

His plan was to at least reach the Fifth Rotation, or "Small Success," in the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique by the time of the final contest.

This meant he would need hundreds of thousands of taels of gold.

But for now, he didn’t want to think too much about it. Over twenty thousand taels of gold would be enough to advance from the Third to the Fourth Rotation in this defensive martial art.

In order to simultaneously enhance the Gang Qi and speed up cultivation of the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique, Ling Xiao simply consumed his most valuable Gang Qi Pill as well.

In the practice room, where ten thousand taels of gold were piled up, anyone who saw Ling Xiao practicing like this would certainly be shocked and dumbfounded.

Previous cultivation involved gold powder entering the body slowly through both hands.

But this time it was different.

All the gold around his body turned into gold powder that seeped into his body through every pore, combined with the Gang Qi in his body, and then continued to strengthen his body.

Hmm?

Unexpectedly, during this session of cultivation, the Mountain and River Martial Soul finally underwent some peculiar changes, and a surge of energy from the Martial Soul permeated into the mixture of gold powder and Gang Qi.

Starting from the Fourth Rotation, Ling Xiao’s cultivation of the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique became distinctly different from others’.

His defensive martial art would not only be stronger, but it also simultaneously fortified his Martial Soul.

What was most astonishing was that when the energy from the Mountain and River Martial Soul mixed in, it didn’t slow down the cultivation progress; instead, it made the process even faster.

The medicinal power of the Gang Qi Pill and the gold powder were wholly absorbed by his body, and he could distinctly feel that the Mountain and River Martial Soul, which once felt somewhat foreign, now seemed to be connected to his own bloodline.

There were many things Ling Xiao didn’t know, but one thing he could be sure of was that his cultivation speed and the efficiency with which he absorbed the power of the pills were much stronger than that of ordinary people.

This was the special trait of the Mountain and River Martial Soul.

For most people, being able to absorb half the efficacy of a pill was already quite good, but he could achieve almost complete absorption, without any waste.

This alone was a significant advantage for him.

In other words, the same pills used on him effectively had double the impact compared to others.

But as good as the effects were, the consumption was terrifying. Watching the mountains of gold in the practice room dwindle rapidly, he felt waves of pain.

Could he not feel the pain? This was his entire fortune.

Luckily, the gold wasn’t wasted. With the absorption of the gold powder, Ling Xiao could clearly feel the rapid increase of Gang Qi in his body.

Of course, the most significant increase was in strength and the toughness of his body.

Especially his soft internal organs were continuously fortified. Some of the hidden injuries caused by Ling Chong’s beatings, which he had suffered from before, were now completely healed.

It had to be said, this gold had certainly not been wasted.
