Chapter 158: Chapter 70 Breakthrough Martial Arts Eighth Grade_2
“I should be able to! After all, before now I had only reached the introductory chapter of the Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill, and even after reaching the beginner’s level, I was still able to continue earning experience value.”
Thinking this, Jiang Ning decided not to waste any more time.
He positioned himself on the spot in the first stance recorded in the remaining chapters of the Vajra Immortal Body technique, then circulated his power, driving the Qi-Blood throughout his body to refine the skin membrane.
…
Time passed slowly.
[Vajra Immortal Body Experience Value +1]
...
[Skill]: Vajra Immortal Body (Small Success 1/5000)
Seeing the change in this column on the panel, the stone that had been hanging in Jiang Ning’s heart finally fell.
“This way, there will be no problem!”
“After achieving small success with Vajra Immortal Body, the next phase is an uncharted area in the remaining chapters.”
“Now that I am still able to gain experience value for this technique, as long as the time comes, once I accumulate five thousand points of experience value, this technique will naturally achieve breakthrough to the next level, getting one step closer to Perfection, and solidifying the Undying Golden Body.”
Jiang Ning was heartened by this thought.
A moment later,
He stopped his actions of continuing to refine the skin membrane.
Because just now, in order to make a breakthrough, the skin membrane had already reached a point of strain.
Continuing to refine the skin membrane, under consecutive strain, caused the skin membrane all over his body to ache faintly.

“Two points of experience value, that’s enough!”
Jiang Ning completely relaxed.
…
[Swimming +1]
[Swimming +1]
[Swimming +1]
[…]
Soaking in the cool lake water,
Jiang Ning felt the weariness on his body gradually dissipate, and at the same time, the experience value of his swimming skill continued to increase.
“It seems that taking a bath in the Luoshui River is indeed a better choice.”
“Not only can it dispel bodily fatigue, but it can also increase the experience value of the swimming skill.”
Half an hour later,
Jiang Ning got up and went ashore.
He returned to his room.
He looked at the Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill placed in front of him.
His eyes couldn’t help but emit a hot gaze.
The Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill was in his view the fastest way for him to step into the Martial Arts Eighth Grade.
Martial Arts Eighth Grade, Divine Power Realm.
It involves using power to drive the Qi-Blood to refine the muscles all over the body, causing the muscles to transform, and thus to be able to burst forth with even greater strength.
The biggest improvement at this level is strength.
Therefore, Martial Arts Eighth Grade is also known as the Divine Power Realm.
The most difficult aspect of this realm is to master power.
For only by mastering power can one internalize and train all the muscles throughout the body.
Without mastering power, there is no real method for refining muscles throughout the body.
Whether it is Medicinal Power from Spirit Fruits or pills like the Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill.
They can at most enable an ordinary Ninth Grade Martial Artist to barely step into the threshold of Martial Arts Eighth Grade.
The further forward you go, the finer the muscles that need to be refined.
Without relying on oneself, there is no way.
And mastery of power has always been no simple matter.
It is merely a matter of perception.
Only with high perception can one cultivate lower-level martial arts to Perfection, thereby mastering a certain kind of power.
And perception is elusive and intangible.
It’s like some people struggle to reach small success with boxing after several years due to poor perception.
But when they switch to swordsmanship, they advance rapidly, reaching the state of swordsmanship Perfection in half a year.
This situation is not unique; it has happened countless times from ancient times to the present.
And it still continues to occur.
So for most people, mastering power also requires some luck, encountering a weapon or martial arts they are proficient in makes it much simpler.
But all this is irrelevant to Jiang Ning.
He already mastered power long ago, so the Divine Power Realm of Martial Arts Eighth Grade holds no more secrets for him.
Give him a little time, and he would smoothly complete this realm.
Moreover, the realm was quite simple, not convoluted like Refining Skin.
Tempering physical strength and muscles, an increase of five hundred catties signified entering the lower echelon of Eighth Grade.
Most martial artists reaching this step possess strength above one thousand five hundred catties, mostly ranging from one thousand five hundred to two thousand catties.
Then, continuing to temper the muscles with another increase of five hundred catties would result in small success in the Divine Power Realm.
Most martial artists at this step generally possess strength above two thousand catties, with the vast majority between two thousand and two thousand five hundred catties.
As for Great Success in the Divine Power Realm, that involved completely tempering all the muscles in the body.
The strength would greatly increase as a result, reaching the limit of this realm.
At this point, the disparities became more significant.
Some individuals with superior Innate Root Bone and well-developed muscle groups could reach the limit of this realm and possess strength above three thousand catties.
There were even those with Innate Divine Strength who could reach an astonishingly terrifying level of power, having more than four thousand catties of strength.
Such martial artists were the symbol of invincibility at the same level.
The gap in strength allowed them to easily defeat opponents of the same level.
Even with sufficient accumulation, ordinary Seventh Grade Martial Artists wouldn’t compare to those with Innate Divine Strength who also reached the limit of the Eighth Grade Martial Arts Realm.
This realm, Mastery in Power Training, was in some sense the limit.
Because Mastery in Power Training meant that all muscle groups had been tempered once over.
Thus, unlike Ninth Grade Martial Arts, even with Refining Skin Mastery and tempering to copper skin, there were still two more steps.

At this moment, Jiang Ning’s mind was filled with information about the Eighth Grade of Martial Arts.
Then he closed his eyes and looked inward at his body.
He immediately saw that the muscles throughout his body had undergone extensive changes.
This was because he had eaten three Bull Demon Strength Fruits before.
One Bull Demon Strength Fruit could increase his strength by one hundred catties.
Where did this one hundred catties of strength come from?
Naturally, it wasn’t directly from the fruit’s enhancement.
It was merely the medicinal effect of the fruit that tempered the muscle layers, thus increasing his strength.
With muscles that had not been tempered, they were like a blank sheet of paper.
Therefore, at the beginning, it was the optimal time for the medicinal effect of the Bull Demon Strength Fruit.
As one proceeds, more muscle groups are tempered, and the strength gain from the Bull Demon Strength Fruit becomes weaker.
This was the rationale behind the strength increase brought by spirit fruits like the Bull Demon Strength Fruit.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but think to himself,
“The three Bull Demon Strength Fruits gave me an increase of three hundred catties in strength, which means I need to increase my strength by two hundred more catties to formally enter the ranks of the Martial Arts Eighth Grade.”
“If that’s the case, then I’m close!”
Jiang Ning opened his eyes, his gaze falling back onto the Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill before him.
The Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill was undoubtedly far more potent than the three Bull Demon Strength Fruits.
Because this pill was known for breaking through a minor realm with a single dose.
That meant one Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill could increase strength by at least five hundred catties.
Moreover, according to widespread belief, this improvement was consistent regardless of whether one had yet to step into the ranks of Martial Arts Eighth Grade or had been deeply cultivating at the Divine Power Realm level of Eighth Grade for a long time, guaranteeing at least a five hundred catties increase in strength, equivalent to the breakthrough of a minor realm.
“Today is the day I step into the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm!” said Jiang Ning, picking up the Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill before him.
The next moment,
He peeled away the pill’s coating.
With the removal of the external encasing, a rich medicinal scent filled the room.
Jiang Ning’s nose was enveloped with the intoxicating aroma.
“Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm, it’s all in this effort.”
Jiang Ning spoke, then placed the Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill on his tongue.
With a gulp, the pill slid down his throat into his stomach.
After entering his stomach.
Boom—
Jiang Ning suddenly felt as though a mini-sun had plunged into his body.
The pill instantly released a terrifying power.
He immediately closed his eyes again and looked inward at his body.
As he observed inwardly, Jiang Ning suddenly felt an unusual surge of power within him.
A force that was not his own.
This force was extremely domineering and was filled with a lively essence.
It was like dragons and tigers roaring and coursing through his body.
It seemed to carry a lively intention, precisely integrating into his muscle groups, cooperating with the released medicinal power to begin tempering every muscle in his body.
