BXBX NOVEL Chapter 7 - Breakthrough, True Aperture Realm!
Cheng Qingman asked.
“Hmm.”
Luo Mu nodded.
The rewards at the academy’s grand ceremony were extremely generous, and there was no way he would miss it.
However, before the grand ceremony.
He still had to train hard, improve his cultivation, and learn more martial arts techniques.
Over the past half month, he had noticed his weaknesses.
For example, his defense.
And his speed.
If his opponent was skilled in movement techniques, it would be difficult for him to keep up.
Coming to the Inner Palace today.
He truly felt the power of the Inner Palace disciples. Looking around, nearly all of them were at the True Aperture Realm, full of vigorous energy and blood.
These geniuses enjoyed the best resources and benefits.
Naturally, their strength was not to be underestimated.
Therefore, he had to improve comprehensively.
Only then could he possibly defeat these geniuses, enter the top 100, or perhaps even higher!
“With your blade technique, entering the top 100 shouldn’t be a problem.”
Cheng Qingman said frankly.
“Then I’ll borrow your good wishes, Senior Sister. I have something to do, so I’ll take my leave.”
Luo Mu smiled, cupping his hands before turning to leave.
He didn’t have time to waste.
“Uh…”
Cheng Qingman had wanted to talk more with Luo Mu.
After all, it was rare to meet someone who shared her interests.
But Luo Mu seemed uninterested.
This made Cheng Qingman wonder if her charm had recently declined.
“You seem to have confidence in that kid.”
The steward said.
“How many have mastered the Absolute Death Blade Technique to perfection? How could I not be confident?”
Cheng Qingman replied.
“But it’s still just a top-tier Human-tier technique.”
The steward shook his head, “And the Inner Palace is full of hidden talents, especially this year, which is stronger than ever.”
“You have a point.”
Cheng Qingman nodded slightly.
She thought of a few people, and indeed, some were extraordinarily powerful, having already stepped into…
——
Back in his room, Luo Mu eagerly closed the door.
He then sat cross-legged on his bed.
He took out the Breaking Yuan Pill that Cheng Qingman had given him.
The main effect of this pill was to help martial artists break through major realms.
Beyond that, it had no other use.
True Aperture Realm…
Luo Mu’s eyes filled with anticipation.
In his previous estimate, it would have taken him at least three years, perhaps even longer, to reach this realm.
But now.
It had only taken just over half a month.
It felt almost like a dream.
Whew!
He exhaled softly.
Luo Mu cleared his mind, adjusted his state, and then swallowed the Breaking Yuan Pill.
Almost the moment it entered his stomach.
A surge of powerful medicinal energy erupted from the pill, spreading throughout his body.
Luo Mu quickly circulated his cultivation technique.
He absorbed all of it.
His energy and blood skyrocketed, increasing six or seven times in a short amount of time!
The human body has nine major apertures.
They are located in the center of the right hand, the left hand, the right foot, the left foot, and five near the internal organs.
The barrier in the center of the right hand is the thinnest.
And the easiest to sense.
So when martial artists aim to break through to the True Aperture Realm, they typically choose to open the aperture in their right hand first.
Found it!
Luo Mu closed his eyes.
His consciousness was focused.
In the darkness, he sensed a small light.
That was the aperture!
Break through!
Without hesitation, Luo Mu surged his energy and blood, like a tidal wave, toward the aperture!
Crack!
The barrier around the aperture didn’t hold for long before it began to shatter.
Under normal circumstances, Luo Mu’s energy and blood wouldn’t have had such overwhelming power.
But the boost from the Breaking Yuan Pill was immense.
Whoosh!
After the aperture shattered.
Golden primal blood began to flow out.
In an instant, every part of his body felt a craving, as if it knew that devouring this primal blood would bring immense benefits!
The primal blood flowed through his meridians, spreading throughout his body.
Gradually, it was absorbed by his physical body.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Luo Mu felt his body tremble.
Whether it was his muscles, skin, meridians, or bones, they all became more compact and resilient.
Black impurities were expelled from the surface of his skin.
This process lasted for the time it takes to burn a stick of incense before it slowly stopped.
Luo Mu stood up and shook off the impurities from his body.
His skin appeared white and tough.
Though only seventeen, his body was nearly fully developed.
He stood at about six feet tall.
His frame was both lean and muscular.
Boom!
Luo Mu casually threw a punch, and the air seemed to explode!
“This punch must be close to thirty thousand pounds of force.”
“No wonder they say the True Aperture Realm and primal blood bring such a huge improvement.”
Luo Mu thought excitedly.
He remembered that when he was at the ninth level of Body Tempering, his punch was only around five or six thousand pounds.
If not for his powerful blade technique.
He wouldn’t have been able to face off against that demonic path True Aperture martial artist.
In terms of his previous life’s understanding, Absolute Death Blade Qi was similar to magic damage.
Ding!
“You diligently cultivated, used a Breaking Yuan Pill to break through, triggered a critical hit, and received ten times the reward!”
Suddenly, a system notification sounded in his mind.
Luo Mu was momentarily stunned.
Breaking through counts too?
A series of images flashed in his mind.
They showed him breaking through.
It was as if he had broken through ten times.
This…
Something dawned on Luo Mu, and his eyes lit up.
Breaking through wasn’t always guaranteed.
He had the Breaking Yuan Pill, so success was almost certain.
But without the pill, with insufficient preparation, failure was more likely.
However, with a critical hit reward.
As long as his luck wasn’t terrible, even after ten attempts, one would surely succeed!
“System, you’re awesome.”
Luo Mu gave a thumbs-up.
In this world, talent didn’t entirely limit a person’s potential. It only limited their cultivation speed and the probability of breaking through major realms.
The better one’s talent.
The faster their cultivation.
And their realm barriers would be weaker, making breakthroughs easier.
Although his talent was average, the critical hit rewards meant he had unlimited chances!
“I’ll consolidate my realm tonight, and tomorrow, I’ll head to the Martial Arts Hall again.”
Luo Mu opened the window to let in some fresh air, then sat back down on his bed.
He needed to learn more martial arts!
To make up for his deficiencies!
