Chapter 652: Chapter 33: The Dark Night and Strong Wind, Yu Manyun’s Arrival!

At the nameless mountain peak.

The afterglow of the sunset gradually faded.

Jiang Ning’s gaze once again fell on the realm column.

[Realm]: Fourth Grade Marrow Refining (8/1999)

At first glance at this column, he determined that 1999 was the number of times he needed to refine his marrow, and the number 8 was the times he had cleansed his marrow from the afternoon until now.

Immediately, his eyebrows involuntarily furrowed slightly.

"1999 times? It seems my talent is indeed not outstanding!"

He had previously understood that for the Fourth Grade Marrow Refining realm, one must draw the power of heaven and earth to cleanse the marrow.

Some people only need several hundred times to achieve pure and spotless, reaching the perfection of this realm.

While some need to cleanse their marrow tens of thousands of times in their lifetime to achieve pure and spotless, reaching the perfection of this realm.

The difference here lies in the innate disparity.

Generally speaking, the younger the age, the fewer the times needed to cleanse the marrow.

The older the age, the more times the marrow must be cleansed.

From the panel, it showed that he needed 1999 times to cleanse his marrow.

From this, Jiang Ning also realized his innate condition was not top-notch.

After all, since the founding of Great Xia, not many at the age of stepping into the Martial Arts Fourth Grade were younger than he is now.

"But it shouldn’t be too bad either!" he murmured to himself.

times of marrow refining to achieve perfection, in his view, this talent should be considered moderately above average.

He also understood his own situation; after all, he was born in an ordinary family, a family no more ordinary.

Whereas those noble offspring, descendants of grandmasters, and heirs of the imperial family had been nurtured with treasure medicine and natural resources from a young age.

They were naturally able to develop an ape-arm bee-waist, lion and tiger body physique.

The accumulation of acquired impurities and dirt within their bodies was comparatively smaller, not to mention hidden ailments or injuries.

Compared to these people, his starting line was naturally far behind, so achieving perfection with 1999 times of marrow cleansing was already much better than he had previously imagined.

Closing the panel.

He glanced at the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Better go home first! If Yu Manyun truly dares to come tonight, she must not be allowed to leave!!"

A cold light flashed in Jiang Ning’s eyes, then his figure leaped up, instantly jumping down from the mountaintop.

The Dongling Mountain Range, with steep cliffs, sea-like forests of peaks, and clouds swirling.

There were dead pines hanging upside-down on the sheer cliffs, with waterfalls cascading from the heavens...

Jiang Ning traversed the mountain stream, and the faint white light emanating from his pores had not yet wholly dissipated, as if a certain divine being were leaping through the mountain stream. NovelFire

Moments later.

He returned to his home.

At this time, it was also mealtime.

Sparse cooking smoke rose from various places in the city.

Jiang Ning could smell the smoke and fire in the air coming from the back kitchen.

He immediately walked towards the front hall.

By now, the white light between his muscles had mostly dissipated, restoring him to the appearance of an ordinary person, only with a faint glow on his skin, like the lustrous shine of jade.

"Uncle, you have light on you!!"

Little Dumpling was playing in the front yard, and upon seeing Jiang Ning’s arrival, she had a face full of wonder.

Jiang Ning smiled.

At this moment.

The Old Turtle beside Little Dumpling looked at Jiang Ning with some fear.

It could feel that Jiang Ning was different than before.

This difference was inexplicable.

But as a monster, it could sense the stronger oppressive presence Jiang Ning now emitted.

...

It was night.

After dinner.

The sunset had already dipped below the horizon, the sky turned ink-day dark quickly.

Jiang Ning, at this moment, also finished his dinner, returning to his courtyard.

If it were a different time, he would go to the mountain forest behind to seek a good place to practice. NovelFire

But tonight was different because he had learned from Xiao Emei that Yu Manyun would come sneaking under the cover of darkness.

To prevent any accidents, he had to sit in the watch tonight.

"The area is still a bit small!"

Glancing at his courtyard, Jiang Ning secretly shook his head.

Nowadays, when he practices the sword force, even when casually swinging the sword, he can unleash the gang qi that tears through the air.

Where the gang qi passes, nothing remains intact.

If he practiced swords in his courtyard, in no time, the entire courtyard would become a ruin, flowers withered, and trees broken.

[Realm]: Fourth Grade Marrow Refining (8/1999)

He now looked at his panel again.

One thousand nine hundred ninety-nine times of marrow refining to reach perfection, achieving the level of refining marrow like frost.

After an afternoon of practice, drawing the power of heaven and earth into the body, heavenly marrow into the body, refining human marrow, he had completed eight times.

Then, Jiang Ning appeared contemplative, murmuring to himself.

"After familiarizing myself throughout the afternoon, my current marrow refining efficiency has basically reached the upper limit, completing a round of marrow refining in just over an hour."

"At this rate, I can roughly achieve 20-25 rounds of marrow refining a day."

"With one thousand nine hundred ninety-nine rounds of marrow refining, it’ll take roughly three months to reach the perfection of refining marrow like frost!"

With this in mind, he looked at the panel again.

[Skill]: Chopping Wood Blade Skill (Six times breaking limit 7000/7000) (Traits: touch and understand, sword like a flash of lightning, god-like blade control, man and sword as one, innate blade bone)

Five Animals Fist (Five times breaking limit 267/6000) (Traits: Five Internal Organs Store Essence, Five Elements Spirit, Master of Fist Skill, Bear and Tiger Body, Five Elements Body)

Currently, both skills have reached the breaking limit for him to grasp the third level of force movements.

"The foundation of Five Animals Fist is the lower-level martial arts that have gained some reputation, while Chopping Wood Blade Skill, is a farming style that doesn’t even count as martial arts!"

"Logic dictates the force derived from the Five Animals Fist should be more superior!"

With this thought.

Jiang Ning immediately went to a spacious area.

In the next moment.
