Chapter 89: The Method to Forge a Perfect Foundation!
TL: Etude
"How do I break through the limits?" Ye Tian furrowed his brows. He too wanted to forge a perfect foundation, but even Typhoon King had said that it was difficult even for those with extraordinary cultivation talents to achieve this feat. At least, in the Demon Sea Base, nobody had ever managed to break the limit and forge a perfect foundation. As for the Super Bases, perhaps some had, but they were exceedingly rare.
Ye Tian continued reading and found that Hurricane King had listed several seemingly feasible solutions.
"The first method is to use various rare and precious natural resources to help break through the limits. However, this approach is too extravagant, even a king-level practitioner shouldn't think of cultivating a genius with a perfect foundation."
"The second method is to use talents to break through the limits. Skin refining corresponds to defensive talents, flesh refining to strength talents, bone refining to skeletal talents, and blood exchange to blood-related talents. The internal organs are more complex and it's hard to find corresponding talents for them. You can use gravity to refine the frail internal organs, allowing them to shatter and then rebuild. During this process, precious healing medicine must be used to preserve vitality."
Reading these two methods, Ye Tian was instantly thrilled. To others, the first method might have a chance of success, while the second was nearly impossible. This was because it was unlikely for one person to possess so many different talents—except for Ye Tian. He had the ability to copy talents and could copy a plethora of them. Therefore, he could try the second method, while the first was difficult for him to implement.
As for how to use talents to break the limits, details were provided.
"Ten years ago, a genius with a top-tier Blood Flame talent broke through the limits of blood exchange in a short time while activating his Blood Flame talent, making his blood even stronger. By inference, if one has a top-tier defensive talent, refining the skin while activating this talent could potentially break the skin-refining limit. The methods for breaking other limits are similar."
Having read this, Ye Tian had thoroughly comprehended it. However, he couldn't try this method yet, as he didn't possess top-tier defensive, strength, bone, or blood talents. Collecting these four kinds of talents wasn't easy, and attempting to break the limits of skin, flesh, bones, and blood without them could lead to the collapse of the physical body. Only when other aspects had broken their limits, leaving the internal organs as the only weak point, could one attempt to break those limits under extremely high gravitational forces.
This was the best method deduced!
"It seems I must copy top-tier defensive, strength, bone, and blood talents in the future!" Ye Tian resolved. He could copy twice a month; if he was lucky, he could copy these top-tier talents and possibly forge a perfect foundation within one or two years. At present, the most likely to be completed was the top-tier strength talent, as his strength talent was already advanced. Even if he couldn't find a top-tier one, merging two high-tier strength talents might just forge a top-tier strength talent.
"First, I must cultivate. Only when my strength improves can I seek more talents," Ye Tian thought.
Immediately, he took out the inheritance orb that contained the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique. It was an high-tier Origin Force body refining technique, and replacing his mid Origin Force body refining technique would further increase his cultivation speed. As his mental energy spread into it and after making an oath, he read the contents of the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique. The inheritance orb shattered completely.
"Huh, the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique isn't a complete set of movements, but a series of actions divided according to cultivation levels!" Ye Tian was somewhat surprised.
Purple Blood Flesh Refining Technique!
Purple Blood Bone Forging Technique!
Purple Blood Blood Refining Technique!
Purple Blood Refining Technique!
Purple Blood Shockwave Technique!
Purple Blood Vein Refining Technique!
Each refining technique was designed for a specific realm, forming individual cultivation methods far more sophisticated than the mid-tier elemental force body forging techniques. Ye Tian went through the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique again, discovering that his skin, which could no longer be refined, could now be refined once more. However, after practicing it several more times, he could no longer refine it. Clearly, he had reached his true limit; without breaking this limit, further refinement was impossible.
Subsequently, Ye Tian tried refining his flesh, bones, and blood several times, strengthening his foundation.
Finally, Ye Tian began practicing the Purple Blood Shockwave Technique! The Purple Blood Shockwave Technique used a set of movements to create shockwaves, resonating throughout the internal organs, thereby accelerating their refinement. According to Ye Tian's tests, the effects of the Purple Blood Shockwave Technique were twice as effective as the mid-tier elemental force body forging techniques.
"My physical strength has already reached 300,000 pounds. Coupled with ample high-grade beast blood, the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique, and exceptional natural talents, I should reach the ultimate limit of a great martial artist in less than two months," Ye Tian speculated.
In the following month, Ye Tian scarcely left the house, dedicating himself entirely to cultivation. A month later, Ye Tian's cultivation had significantly improved, with his physical strength reaching 680,000 pounds.
Because the talent copying was on cooldown, Ye Tian wandered around the base in the Demon Sea for quite some time and finally found a high-tier defense talent, not copied from a human, but from the pet of a genius. Apart from the high-tier defense talent, he also found a high-tier Vajra Bone talent, copied from a fierce beast called Vajra Beast.
The Vajra Bone talent was similar to the defense talent, but it focused not on flesh but on bones. Once activated, it made one's bones incredibly strong, even capable of easily piercing steel with a finger bone. Even if someone were to break through his defense, they would still be stopped by the Vajra Bone, serving as a secondary defense, which also proved quite effective. While such talents didn't offer much in terms of combat power for Ye Tian, he still needed to copy them to create a perfect foundation. Once he encountered a few more high-tier Vajra Bone talents, the top-tier Vajra Bone talent would form.
After copying the two talents, Ye Tian continued his cultivation. Another month passed, and Ye Tian's physical strength had reached the ultimate limit of a great martial artist—1,000,000 pounds. By this time, his power had also multiplied many times compared to two months ago.
"1,000,000 pounds equals the strength of one elephant. With the amplification of elemental force, it becomes two elephants; with the high-level strength talent amplification, it becomes 20 elephants. Coupled with the six-fold increase of the Qingfeng Slash, that would be 120 elephants," Ye Tian calculated his attack power and couldn't help but be amazed at himself.
A great martial artist possessing an attack power of 120 elephants would be unbelievable if spoken out loud. Ye Tian's speed had also undergone a significant change. He had now reached an astonishing 120 times the speed of sound. Ordinarily, a great martial artist's speed would be at most six times the speed of sound, but he had top-level speed talent, which allowed a 20-fold increase, reaching 120 times the speed of sound. Ye Tian believed that even the pinnacle of grandmasters wouldn't exceed a few dozen times the speed of sound, while his own speed was second only to the king-level.
"Having reached the limit of a great martial artist, the next step is to focus entirely on breaking that limit," Ye Tian was filled with fighting spirit and longing.
