Chapter 35 Rapid Improvement
Of course, Chen Yuan felt it would be a bit difficult to advance two levels with just jade marrow, but he didn't care.
He never expected to break through to the God of War level directly with the jade marrow; he was content as long as it could help him advance to the rank of high-level general.
Because there is dragon blood and spirits of plants and trees to come.
Dragon blood is enough to enable a high-level warrior to break through to become a low-level war god, while the spirit of plants and trees can elevate a low-level war god to a mid-level war god.
As for the intermediate war god level, he can use the Wood Crystal to directly skip the advanced war god level and reach the planetary level!
It can be said that Chen Yuan's path before reaching the planetary level has been planned, and the next step is to cultivate step by step.
In the days that followed, Chen Yuan spent almost all his time in the gravity chamber cultivating gene energy, practicing for at least 6 hours a day.
Under the influence of extreme gravity, Chen Yuan's cultivation efficiency did indeed increase several times, but it was not as exaggerated as 10 times. Chen Yuan estimated it to be about 7 times.
As for the reason, Chen Yuan knew it in his heart. Compared with other martial artists, his body cells naturally maintained a higher energy absorption rate due to deep sleep.
If the absorption limit of other martial artists is set at 1, then Chen Yuan's energy absorption limit is at least 3.
Because the base amount of energy absorbed is already large enough, even if one continues to squeeze it out using extreme gravity, the increase in energy ratio cannot be the same as that of others.
While his improvement rate may seem slower than others, in reality, ordinary martial artists can increase their cultivation efficiency from 1 to 10 with the help of a gravity chamber, but Chen Yuan's efficiency soared from 3 to 21.
Although the multiplier may seem low, the actual increase is much greater!
Not to mention, this effect can be doubled again after consuming jade marrow, making cultivation efficiency more than 40 times that of ordinary people!
In just six hours of training on the first day, Chen Yuan's strength increased by 1600 kilograms.
Furthermore, as his body gradually adapts, he can continue to extend the time he spends training in the gravity chamber each day.
Of course, Chen Yuan wouldn't devote all his energy to the gravity chamber.
In addition to his cultivation, he also purchased a large number of secret manuals, most of which were at least C-grade. The most expensive manual was the first 11 levels of the ultimate manual "Thunder Blade," which he bought for 50 billion.
After purchasing these secret manuals, Chen Yuan's savings plummeted from 103 billion to 20 billion.
So every day after leaving the gravity chamber, Chen Yuan would use his rest time to study these manuals in preparation for optimizing the Gale Sword Technique.
He first read through the Thunder Blade manual. As expected, the core of the manual was still the accumulation of internal energy, but starting from the tenth level, it added a part on body control.
Chen Yuan guessed that Lei Shen was probably already on the path of orthodox power, and this book "Thunder Blade" was no longer his main secret technique. It was likely that Lei Shen casually optimized it, added a few moves, and then put it in the martial arts school.
"That's right. I remember that Thor obtained the inheritance of the 'Thunder Lord,' so naturally he would switch to cultivating other powerful secret techniques instead of still stubbornly sticking to the Thunder Blade." Chen Yuan put down the eleventh level of the Thunder Blade manual and then picked up the "World Destruction" manual next to him and began to look through it.
Then Chen Yuan let out a soft "Eh".
"This world-destroying book... almost went down the right path in the early stages."
The first level of the World Destruction technique combines internal martial arts skills, taking physical control as the core of power generation, and supplementing it with hidden force techniques to enhance power generation.
Unfortunately, as Chen Yuan continued to read, he discovered that starting from the second level, the content on cultivating internal strength increased, while the content on internal martial arts gradually decreased.
Even from the fourth level onwards, up to the sixth level, the only technique for generating power is internal force.
"When Hong created the world-ending story back then, could he have been led astray by Thor?" Chen Yuan thought of this possibility and felt a little amused and exasperated.
However, it is true that compared to exploring the potential of the physical body, it is simpler to increase the power multiplier by directly relying on the accumulation of internal energy, and the future path is also clearer - just continue to accumulate internal energy.
The orthodox path of mastering the physical body is much more difficult. It requires not only studying how to coordinate all the muscles in the body, but also exploring how to unleash power at the cellular level in the later stages.
When Chen Yuan looked at the first few levels of the world's destruction, he saw that Hong had indeed tried to control his muscles using internal martial arts, but after a brief attempt, he turned to the more convenient method of internal force.
However, starting from the seventh level of the World Destruction Manual, the main cultivation method changed back to physical body control, and until the tenth level of the manual ended, it explained how to perfectly control the body.
That's right, the new version of World Destroyer, like the Thunder Blade, has also increased its upper limit, from six layers to ten layers.
"Hmm... Thor has the legacy of the Thunder Realm Lord, and Hong has the Time Realm Lord 'Luo' as his teacher. They have indeed both chosen the orthodox way of exerting their power."
After studying these manuals, Chen Yuan felt he had gained a lot. If he used this information to optimize the Gale Sword Technique, he could increase the upper limit of his power by at least 10 times.
However, Chen Yuan was not in a hurry to optimize it. On the one hand, he wanted to wait until he had mastered the Gale Sword Technique. On the other hand, he had also purchased a large number of low-level manuals that he had not yet read, and he planned to read them all before starting to optimize them.
After all, Chen Yuan felt that low-level manuals were not necessarily worthless. As the saying goes, one person's plan is short, but many people's plans are long. He might get inspiration from one of the manuals.
Besides, his Gale Sword Technique was an optimization of the Spirit Wind Sword Technique, so Chen Yuan would naturally not look down on low-level manuals.
So Chen Yuan spent the rest of the time studying the manual, and it wasn't until late at night that he put down the book, took out his consciousness-sensing helmet, and...
"It's time to go to the Trial Tower to hone my swordsmanship."
After one night, Chen Yuan's proficiency with the Gale Sword Technique improved, and his power also increased slightly.
So for the next few days, Chen Yuan maintained this training method—entering the gravity chamber to train in the morning, hiding in the Jiangnan Pavilion to read books in the afternoon, and entering the Trial Tower in the evening.
Occasionally, Luo Hai would challenge him to a sparring match. After all, in the few days since arriving at the training camp, Luo Hai had already beaten all the students at the top of the leaderboard, including Yu Qinglan, who was also from Jiangnan Pavilion.
Then Luo Hai discovered that Chen Yuan was indeed more durable, and the fights between them lasted the longest, so he started to spar with Chen Yuan more and more frequently.
Chen Yuan was naturally happy to do so, since sparring with Luo Hai meant he would get to witness the Hundred Blades technique more often.
Besides these matters, Jiang Fang also came to Jiangnan Pavilion to give him guidance a few times, but after discovering that Chen Yuan's power level was more than 4 times higher, she suddenly lost interest and let Chen Yuan cultivate on his own without interfering too much.
Under such intense training, Chen Yuan's strength improved by leaps and bounds: his power increased day by day, his proficiency in the Gale Sword Technique steadily improved, and even his proficiency in the Meditation Method increased significantly with the help of the gravity chamber.
time flies.
Just ten days after Chen Yuan arrived at the training camp, on December 10th, the effects of the jade marrow medicine wore off.
At this moment, his proficiency in Gale Sword Technique reached 83%, his power level increased to 4.6 times, and his proficiency in Meditation Technique also soared to 74% due to the assistance of the gravity chamber.
After discovering that the chalcedony was ineffective, Chen Yuan specifically consulted Jiang Fang about the matter.
"You mean the medicinal effects wore off after only ten days of using the chalcedony?" Jiang Fang, naturally aware of the chalcedony's effects, asked curiously, "What level of strength have you reached now?"
Chen Yuan glanced at the panel and replied, "Approximately 37180 kilograms."
"You gained almost 20,000 kilograms in ten days!" Jiang Fang's eyes widened immediately. "You still have the nerve to say that the chalcedony is gone? What do you think chalcedony is, some kind of wood crystal?"
"So...it's because I cultivated too fast and exhausted the medicinal power of the jade marrow ahead of time?" Chen Yuan asked hesitantly.
"Otherwise what?" Jiang Fang rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "Jade marrow is just a cultivation enhancement potion worth 300 billion, and it's only effective for those below the planetary level. Do you really think it's some kind of magic pill?"
"The medicinal power of a single dose of jade marrow is limited, but it would take an ordinary martial artist a month to fully digest it."
"I really don't know how you cultivate. Your efficiency is several times that of others." Jiang Fang looked at Chen Yuan with a strange expression. "I think that the fact that the jade marrow could support your cultivation for a full ten days has far exceeded its value."
"I see." Chen Yuan understood.
In other words, the chalcedony didn't have a quality problem; it was simply that the medicinal effects had been exhausted.
Therefore, he can use the dragon's blood without worry.
