Chapter 214: Chapter 202 Physical Body Rank Promotion, Astonishing Changes! (3/3, Three Updates Complete!)

"You just need to take me to the place where you escaped from the control of the Fire Ritual Spirit Demon and point me in the direction they left. There’s no need for you to accompany me the entire way," Chu Feng consoled.

"I’ll give you five hundred thousand Longhua Currency as remuneration!"

"Just to lead the way, and I’ll give you five hundred thousand.

"If you agree, I can give you two hundred thousand as a deposit right now!"

Du Baocuan fell into an even deeper hesitation and inner conflict.

Five hundred thousand, he really wanted it from the bottom of his heart!

In his most prosperous times, it would have taken him three to four months to earn such a large sum of money!

As his Martial Path Realm had stagnated, eventually becoming a drag on his teammates, it would take half a year, a full year, or even longer to earn that amount!

After much deliberation, he stamped his foot hard and gritted his teeth, "One million, plus treating my magic injury!

"Meet these two conditions, and I’ll take you there!"

But Chu Feng’s expression immediately turned cold, "Old Du, one should not be too greedy.

"You’re only asked to lead the way, asking for a million is outrageous!

"Furthermore, whether your magic injury can be healed, or how long it will take to fully recover, these are uncertain matters.

"No one can guarantee there won’t be other complications with your injury, which if arises, will need to be dealt with.

"Paying such a high price, wouldn’t it be better for me to put out a bounty for the whereabouts of the Fire Ritual Spirit Demon and hire a professional guide?

"Five hundred thousand, plus taking you to the hospital to try and arrange cut-in-line treatment, then we’ll set off immediately.

"This is the best offer I can make since you have personal experience with the matter. If it’s not acceptable, let’s forget it!"

Chu Feng leaned back on the couch, crossed his legs, and looked deeply at Du Baocuan.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford to pay more; it was simply unnecessary to be taken for such a fool.

As he said, five hundred thousand was already the bottom line. Any higher, it would be better to spend the money on a reward bounty for tracing the Fire Ritual Spirit Demon.

Giving more to Du Baocuan would only whet his appetite and lead to irrational actions.

As for treating the injury, Du Baocuan complained that hospitals are all fully booked and wouldn’t take him in.

However, if he remembers correctly, his Top Scholar Gold Book states that holders enjoy a series of rights including "priority treatment rights."

He wondered if he could use it to help Du Baocuan jump the queue for registration.

...

On hearing this, Du Baocuan felt a slight depression, thinking that it seemed impossible to secure a better deal.

Seeing Chu Feng growing impatient, he clenched his teeth and said, "Fine! Let’s do it your way! When do we leave?"

Chu Feng nodded in satisfaction and stood up, "I will transfer the money to your account today, and we will set off early tomorrow morning!"

"Okay, you’re the boss; you call the shots."

Du Baocuan’s service attitude was still very proper, taking the lead to open the door wide and smiling as he saw Chu Feng out.

Later that evening, when he saw the deposit of two hundred forty-five thousand on his information terminal, he nearly laughed until tears came out.

Although the battlefield was still not very safe, based on past experience, there tended to be a rather long period of calm after a large-scale battle had just erupted.

So, this trip was bound not to be very dangerous, and to earn such a high remuneration made him almost exuberantly happy.

...

His original room had been severely damaged, and after Chu Feng compensated for it, he had been moved to a new room.

The hotel manager’s old face was all wrinkled up, and it was only after Chu Feng repeatedly assured there would be no more destruction that he reluctantly handed over the room card.

Having arranged the transfer, he went to the new suite and dove straight into the Cultivation Room, sitting down cross-legged.

Having successfully broken through to the Everlasting Realm, it was time to boost his combat power!

He first called up the Attribute Panel.

...

At this moment, his "Vitality, Energy, and Spirit" three attribute values had already soared to 55!

Compared to the value of just 31 for each attribute when he left Yan University, it was as if the values had nearly doubled in such a short time, resulting in a natural decline in control over his strength.

At the same time, he was now somewhat uncertain about how strong he actually was.

Perhaps he needed some intense combat to help him reacquaint himself with his abilities.

"Hmm?"

As his eyes scanned over, he suddenly noticed a change.

He saw that there was now a small asterisk after [Iron Bone Mortal Physique].

If it wasn’t for the asterisk, he would have almost forgotten about the "Physical Body Rank" column on the attribute panel!

"What’s with the asterisk?"

As he focused on the asterisk, the panel instantly popped up a prompt:

[Any one of the "Vitality, Energy, Spirit" attribute values reaches 60, total attribute value reaches 180, the next rank will be unlocked!]

After reading the prompt, Chu Feng stroked the slightly hardening fuzz on his chin and decisively chose to continue adding points!

The more lice one has, the less they itch; the more debts one owes, the less worried they are. Since he was already out of control, he might as well go a bit further.

And the [Iron Bone Mortal Physique] Physical Body Rank had been static like a background board ever since it appeared on the panel, until now when it finally underwent a change.

This made him quite curious, really wanting to know what would happen after the evolution of the Physical Body Rank.

Under his gaze, the three major attributes rapidly increased.

When all three attribute values simultaneously hit 60 (60), Chu Feng suddenly felt a bit stunned.

Out of nowhere, one after another, deep bell chimes began to resound, reaching his ears!

The sound of the bell brought about intense vibrations, and his entire flesh and bones were thoroughly scattered by this formidable force, then quickly reassembled!

Each inch of his skin, every tendon, and every bone were repeatedly tempered by the bell’s chime, causing extreme pain, numbness, and itchiness.

Chu Feng’s face nearly twisted in pain as he cursed in his heart: ’Damn panel, you love to put me through agony with every little change!’

Curse as he might, but since the panel ’enjoyed’ this approach, he could only bear it while struggling to maintain internal vision to monitor the status within his body.

To his astonishment, as the tempering vibration persisted, faint jade hues began to appear on every piece of bone and tendon, while the flesh started to show a deep bronze color.

As time passed, the pain intensified, but the colors of the bones and flesh darkened.

Eventually, it was as if he had become a breathing bronze statue, sitting cross-legged in the quiet room.

"Dang~~~~"

As if signifying the end, a colossal bell chime rang out, and the sensations of pain, numbness, and itchiness on his body immediately ceased.

Followed by that, a blindingly brilliant light burst forth from his entire body!
