“Very good, here are five thousand taels of silver notes. Three thousand taels of them were exchanged using your contribution points, and the other two thousand taels are a separate gift from me.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fenglei was overjoyed and took out a silver note from his pocket, placing it on the stone table.
Lin Xiaofei glanced at the silver notes on the stone table and said calmly, "
From what I understand, within the Qingfeng Gang, and even throughout the entire Canyon County, the opportunity to become a servant of the Gong family is extremely precious.
Once your grandson enters the Gong family, his status and access to cultivation resources will far exceed these five thousand taels of silver.
"Does the Grand Elder really think he can just fob me off with five thousand taels of silver?"
As he spoke, Lin Xiaofei released a slight amount of his martial arts aura.
Although he didn't want to become a servant of the government, he knew that if he exchanged this opportunity with other high-ranking members of the Qingfeng Gang, he could get at least ten thousand taels of silver, or even more, and the other party would owe him a favor.
The Grand Elder wanted to settle things with five thousand taels of silver, which he naturally refused.
Zhao Fenglei's expression changed slightly, and he was startled as he sensed a powerful aura suddenly emanating from Lin Xiaofei.
He had been sitting in front of Lin Xiaofei for a while, but he still hadn't realized that Lin Xiaofei was a peak third-rate martial artist.
In an instant, Lin Xiaofei's aura vanished again.
Zhao Fenglei looked at Lin Xiaofei again and found that Lin Xiaofei's aura was like that of an ordinary person. Suddenly, he realized that he could not see through Lin Xiaofei.
At this moment, he knew that Lin Xiaofei was no ordinary person, and that the other party's actions were a reminder to him not to bully others.
"Haha, five thousand taels of silver is indeed too little."
Zhao Fenglei laughed heartily, easing the tension, and then spoke again:
"Alright then, I have a top-tier martial art from our sect here, which can only be practiced by high-ranking members. I'll give it to you as well, how about it?"
"I wonder what kind of martial art it is?" Lin Xiaofei asked.
"This martial art is called the Body Tempering Golden Body Technique. Once you cultivate it to the highest level, even my precious sword will have difficulty harming your body. You can even fight low-level demonic beasts naked without getting hurt."
Zhao Fenglei said.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaofei was startled, realizing that this martial art was very powerful.
If he were to learn this martial art, his physical strength and defense would be greatly enhanced. He would not only be a martial artist, but also a cultivator.
It is said that rogue cultivators often hunt demonic beasts. Even though they are stronger than the demonic beasts, they are often approached by them and seriously injured, thus dying.
The reason for this is that the physical bodies of cultivators are not very strong, only about twice as strong as those of ordinary people.
If he had a strong physical body, he wouldn't suffer serious injuries even if a demon beast accidentally got close to him.
"Elder, I wonder what level you have reached in your cultivation of this martial art?"
After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiaofei asked curiously.
"This Body Tempering Golden Body Technique is an extremely difficult martial art to cultivate. I have been cultivating it for eighteen years and have only reached the fourth level. I am still far from the ninth level of perfection."
I estimate that I will never be able to cultivate to the perfect state in this lifetime.
Although I have only cultivated to the fourth level, I am very grateful for this technique, which has greatly tempered my physical body and allowed my martial arts talent to increase slightly, enabling me to reach the early stage of first-class level.
Otherwise, I estimate that I can only become a second-rate peak expert at best.
Zhao Fenglei sighed, took out a secret manual from his pocket, placed it on the stone table in front of Lin Xiaofei, and then said:
You should already know the value of this Body Tempering Golden Body Technique.
Lin Xiaofei nodded and accepted the technique. Zhao Fenglei then turned and left, intending to return to the gang and remove Lin Xiaofei from the rankings.
"The Body Tempering Golden Body Technique is a top-tier cultivation method that completely tempers the physical body. If one uses internal energy to cultivate it, it takes a year to even begin to understand it."
If one were to cultivate using internal energy, it would take a month to even begin to grasp the basics, demonstrating how difficult this technique is to master.
However, for me, once I've cultivated it to the beginner level, I can directly consume herbs to accelerate my cultivation; there's no such thing as difficulty in cultivation at all.
After Zhao Fenglei left, Lin Xiaofei quickly browsed through the contents of the technique.
This technique is truly powerful. If one cultivates it to its highest level, their physical body will become incredibly strong. He estimates that with just the strength of their physical body, they could withstand a single spell from a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
"For the next period of time, I don't need to go anywhere. I'll just stay at home, practice this technique properly, and also take care of my spatial bead."
The thought that he no longer needed to concern himself with matters of the martial world made Lin Xiaofei feel a little relieved.
After that, he began to try to cultivate the Body Tempering Golden Body Technique. The first step in cultivating this technique is to use internal force to impact the skin and flesh of the whole body.
Without hesitation, he immediately activated his cultivation method, using his internal energy to cover his entire body. The method absorbed the internal energy and continuously impacted his skin, thereby achieving the effect of tempering his skin.
And so, Lin Xiaofei cultivated for six or seven days straight without going anywhere.
Lin Xiaofei has been working very hard in cultivating this martial art. It can be said that he has done nothing but practice the Body Tempering Golden Body Technique these past few days.
Finally, on the morning of the seventh day, Lin Xiaofei smiled slightly and slowly finished his practice.
"This Body Tempering Golden Body Technique is the most difficult to master among all the martial arts I have ever practiced."
Fortunately, I am a peak third-rate martial artist with a large amount of internal energy stored in my body. In addition, I can quickly recover my internal energy by consuming the herbs in the space bead, which is why I can cultivate the Body Tempering Golden Body Technique so quickly.
My seven days of cultivation were equivalent to a month of daily and nightly cultivation by other third-rate masters.
"If Zhao Fenglei had my method of rapidly recovering internal energy, he would probably have reached the pinnacle of the Body Tempering Golden Body Technique after more than ten years of cultivation."
Lin Xiaofei thought about it and felt a surge of joy.
He mastered the basics of this technique in just seven days, something that is extremely difficult for anyone to do.
Moreover, according to the description in the Body Tempering Golden Body Technique, anyone who can master the basics in a month is a martial arts genius, one in a million.
Besides, he only used seven days.
"For seven consecutive days, I continuously released a large amount of internal energy to temper my skin, which allowed me to break through to the early stage of the second-rate realm without realizing it."
"I've only mastered the basics of this Body Tempering Golden Body Technique, yet it already has such effects. It's truly an excellent cultivation method."
Lin Xiaofei sensed his body and immediately noticed a change in his aura. Then, remembering something, he thought to himself, "..."
Now that you've mastered the Body Tempering Golden Body Technique, things will be simple.
However, there's no rush to accelerate cultivation yet. The items in that storage bag haven't been retrieved yet; they need to be refined as soon as possible.
