I Maximize My Item-dropping Rate

Chapter 29: Second Body Tempering

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Although Xiao Shi did not take a closer look, he still remembered that the item that dropped after the ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level powerhouse died was a completely black jade slip. He took out the jade slip.

Relevant information immediately appeared in his vision.

[Name: Nine Vajra Body (Heaven Rank)]

[Type: Body Tempering Technique]

[Grade: Qi Martial Level]

[Introduction: The leader of the three great body tempering techniques of the Fiend Star Territory. When cultivated to Greater Mastery, it can form the Invincible Vajra Body.]

[Remark: The requirements for cultivation are extremely harsh. Cultivators are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, one in ten thousand.]

...

It was actually a body tempering technique! Moreover, it was a Qi Martial Gradem, Heaven-rank body tempering technique!

Xiao Shi was overjoyed.

Body tempering techniques were even rarer and more precious than natural treasures. One of the reasons why there were so few martial artists who could temper their bodies was because of the heavenly treasures.

Most of them lacked body tempering techniques.

Usually, even Yellow-rank body tempering techniques were enough to make people go crazy.

Heaven-rank body tempering techniques’ value was even more unimaginable!

Of course, there was no need for body tempering techniques in the Martial Entry-Level. However, if one wanted to break through to the Qi Martial Realm, they had to have a suitable body tempering technique.

Which meant, even the lowest level body tempering technique was at the Qi Martial level. There was no Martial Entry-Level body tempering technique. If he did not drop it, Xiao Shi would only have a chance to obtain a body tempering technique after reaching the Qi Martial Realm.

He did not expect that the first kill of a Martial Entry-Level Nine martial artist would successfully drop a Qi Martial Grade item.

And it happened to be a body tempering technique!

“As expected, only by killing powerful Martial Entry-Level martial artists can higher-level items drop easily!”

Xiao Shi was very excited about this.

Although he had yet to reach the level of cultivating a body tempering technique, he could not wait to check the specific cultivation situation of this body tempering technique under the joy in his heart.

He held the jade slip and found that the activation of this jade slip was very different from ordinary jade slips.

This jade slip could only be activated with blood.

Xiao Shi immediately used the Ling Jian Grass from before to cut his finger and drip his blood onto the jade slip.

The black jade slip quickly absorbed his blood.

After a flash, he released a small amount of information.

“It used my blood to determine the strength of my body. It sensed that my body wasn’t strong enough, so it didn’t release all the information?”

Xiao Shi was deep in thought. Although the information he could see was limited, he had gained a lot from the information he could see.

According to the information displayed by this body tempering cultivation technique, the Martial Entry-Level allowed a total of nine body tempering sessions. When he successfully tempered his body three times, there would be some additional changes and improvements.

If he wanted to cultivate the Nine Vajra Body Technique, he had to undergo nine body tempering sessions.

This was the prerequisite for cultivating this cultivation technique. At the same time, he could only see the subsequent contents of the cultivation technique after completing nine body tempering sessions.

“As expected of a Heaven-rank cultivation technique. The requirements are indeed high!” Xiao Shi sighed.

For most people, being able to temper their bodies once was already very good.

Tempering the body nine times? It was simply wishful thinking! After all, natural treasures were extremely rare. Nine times of body tempering required at least nine types of natural treasures.

Based on the rarity and preciousness of heavenly treasures, even a sect like the Red Tiger Sect could not take out so many natural treasures. Usually, if one could obtain a heavenly treasure, it would be treated as the sect’s ultimate treasure.

Obtaining nine types of heavenly treasures was definitely impossible in the Seven Star Province.

But to Xiao Shi, although there was a certain level of difficulty, it was not impossible! At the very least, he had already obtained two heavenly treasures through consecutive kills. As long as he kept killing Martial Entry-Level powerhouses, there would be hope of dropping treasures.

Judging from the drop rate, the probability of dropping a heavenly treasure was not too low.

Of course, this required him to kill a Martial Entry-Level martial artist with a certain level of strength. If he only killed Martial Entry-Level Three or Four martial artists, he would probably need to kill a lot of them to drop them.

“Nine body temperings!” Xiao Shi took a deep breath. This would be his goal from now on. He would do his best to kill them and obtain even more heavenly treasures. “Now, let’s begin the second body tempering.”

Xiao Shi looked at the long bottle beside him. Inside the bottle was the heavenly treasure that had fallen this time, the Water of Transmigration. He immediately followed the previous body tempering method. He first drank the Water of Transmigration in the bottle.

As soon as it entered his stomach, a bone-piercing cold spread from Xiao Shi’s body. In this cold, Xiao Shi felt as if every part of his body was pricked by needles. Immediately after, his legs, hands, shoulders, and back began to swell.

However, when it swelled to a certain extent, it stopped. Then, like flowing water, it wriggled into his body. Its expanding body quickly began to shrink. His body became stronger and stronger, sinking deeper and deeper.

His flesh and bones made a sound like mud being stirred. It was his flesh, bones, and internal organs that were constantly increasing in density. The entire body tempering process was as painful as ever.

However, this was a necessary process for body tempering, and it was also a huge test of will.

Xiao Shi could clearly feel that his body was rapidly improving amidst the pain. The power contained in every piece of his flesh and blood was even more shocking and violent. His blood and qi had also increased tremendously.

High-density condensation followed. It caused his condensed blood and qi fluctuations to rise from Martial Entry-Level Four to Martial Entry-Level Five. And once it erupted, his blood and qi was comparable to Martial Entry-Level Eight.

An hour later, the body tempering finally ended. After the successful body tempering last time, the flame patterns that appeared between his eyebrows appeared again.

There were some changes this time. However, it was immediately concealed by Xiao Shi.

There was no need for such a high-profile body tempering symbol.

Whoosh!

Xiao Shi stood up.

...

The first time he tempered his body, due to the condensation of his flesh, blood, and bones, his body became thin and small. Originally, he was still a little worried that if every body tempering was like this, after nine body temperings, he would probably become a dwarf.

Fortunately, not every time he tempered his body, his body would shrink.

This time, this situation did not happen. Not only did he not shrink, but his body became stronger than before. At least, he did not look thin anymore.

Xiao Shi clenched his fists. He felt the increase in his body tempering. In addition to the improvement in his strength, blood and qi, his physical defense had also reached a new height.

With his current physical body, even if he was hit by the full-power attack of the ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level martial artist from before, although he would still be injured, his chest would definitely not collapse and his sternum would not shatter.

Yet, there was still a considerable gap between him and a ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level powerhouse.

But Xiao Shi felt that as long as he completed the eighth Heavenly Cycle of the Red Tiger Technique and stepped into Martial Entry-Level Eight, the gap would be shortened again.
