Chapter 22: The Realm of Tempering the Body

  Three whole days! The fierce sky didn't stop tempering! His body's power was still surging, but his physical strength had reached its limit! Although the yuan force continued to rise from his brow and pour into his four limbs, making his strength endless, his muscles were extremely sore! The fierce sky did not rest because of this, but instead felt his bronze blood vessels!

  With the help of the Blood-Opening Pill, the Bronze Bloodline was activated in Mo Tian's body. He only felt his muscles becoming stronger, but the power of the Bronze Bloodline had not been truly unleashed. At this moment, he used his physical limits to stimulate the power contained within the Bronze Bloodline!

  Although the power of bloodlines only gradually manifests during the Blood Image period! Before that, Meng Tian wanted to merge his own bloodline into every muscle in his body. In this way, the fusion of bloodlines and yuan force would inevitably allow his strength to rise by one level.

  The distant ancient diagram had numbed, he had already exchanged the sword embryo forged for new materials, and after his new material was forged perfectly, the barbaric sky was still forging! This made him wonder why the barbaric sky wasn't hungry. Generally speaking, a barbarian warrior would still need food to fill their hunger, while the Tempering Body realm could eat once a month, and by the Blood Symbol period, they wouldn't need food to fill their hunger anymore, as the power of their own blood vessels was enough to supply their body's needs.

  Five days later, Mo Tian's body was violently shaking, his swinging iron hammer didn't slow down by half a beat, at this point, it was already Mo Tian's limit, in order to dig deeper into the extreme, he had to grit his teeth and persevere!

  "Ah!"

  "Clang!" The heavy breathing and hammering sounds blended together, Mo Tian's sweat had soaked his clothes countless times, the primal energy inside him was frantically coursing through his body, dictating every move he made, his muscles trembling with weakness! If someone could see through Mo Tian's physical body, they would surely discover that the blood in his meridians had merged into his muscles and was actually being absorbed by them!!

  This is precisely the phenomenon of the realm of tempering the body!

  What is Tempering the Body? It refers to infusing the power of the blood vessels into the muscles and bones throughout the body, making the body's strength even more formidable. This is also a necessary process for unlocking the potential of the blood vessels. Under this excavation of the body's limits, Mo Tian actually advanced from being a 7th-grade Barbarian Warrior to the realm of Tempering the Body.

  On the seventh day, Mo Tian's movements were even more swift and fierce than before. His originally trembling body had stopped shaking altogether! This left Gu Tu, who had been observing Mo Tian all along, extremely curious.

  It seemed like it had been several days since they last visited Man Tian, Xiong Hong and Xiong Yue, the two brothers, arrived at Man Tian's residence. They saw Man Tian forging, Xiong Hong was about to speak, but was stopped by Xiong Yue, who whispered: "Don't make a sound, Brother Man Tian is cultivating!" Xiong Yue's expression was shocked as he stared at the anvil, which had already been pounded into a depression by Man Tian. Man Tian's left hand held a sword hilt, while the sword body had long since disappeared. This bizarre scene made it hard for him to believe his eyes.

  How can the sword embryo that contains only a small amount of mysterious iron withstand such madness? When the sword embryo was forcibly hammered into the anvil by Mo Tian, he did not come to his senses. He remained immersed in the hammering, and it didn't matter if there was no sword embryo left. As long as the iron hammer was still in his hand, as long as there were things for him to forge, that was all that mattered!

  "Big brother, what are you doing?" Xiong Hong looked at Man Tian holding the broken sword hilt in his left hand and hammering an iron anvil with his right hand, asking in puzzlement.

  "He sank into a certain state, and now it seems that he had his reasons for choosing to forge." Xiong Yue said in a low voice, previously still wondering why Mo Tian would choose to forge, but the current scene made him vaguely guess something.

  In the distance, Gu Tu had a different expression. He muttered to himself: "Even if I were in the Refining Body state right now, I wouldn't be able to withstand this. What secrets does this barbarian sky hold? Is his body stronger than an ordinary person's?"

  At the time when the three were in a state of shock, the scene inside Mo Tian's body was another story altogether. His muscles, nourished by the Bronze Blood Vessels, gradually became thicker and more robust, to the point where Mo Tian's body had become even more majestic and powerful without anyone noticing! When the Bronze Blood Vessels had merged with every muscle in his body, Mo Tian's strength reached its peak at this moment! At this time, every swing of his hammer not only unleashed the primal force within his bones but also caused his muscles to burst forth with incredible power.

  "Boom!!" When the iron anvil was directly crushed into powder by a single hammer blow from Man Tian, he finally came to his senses! He looked at the already fragmented iron anvil with some inexplicable confusion. Meanwhile, Gu Tu, Xiong Hong and Xiong Yue were stunned like wooden chickens!!!

  At the moment when Mo Tian swung out his last blow, they actually saw that amidst the bronze light bursting forth from Mo Tian's body, there were strange markings!!

  The realm of tempered body!!

  Has Man Tian entered the Tempering Body realm? The three of them seemed to be unable to believe their own eyes, especially Xiong Hong and Xiong Yue. How long had it been since Man Tian became a Barbarian Warrior? Not to mention that he had directly advanced to a Seventh-Grade Barbarian Warrior by opening his bloodline, but now, in less than a month's time, he had once again entered the Tempering Body realm? Such speed would probably make those self-proclaimed geniuses within the sect feel ashamed. And Gu Tu stared with wide eyes, finding it even harder to believe that Man Tian had entered the Tempering Body realm after just ten days of forging?

  They didn't know that Man Tian's current speed wasn't due to his exceptional talent, but rather the result of two years of hard work, which allowed him to accumulate and suddenly burst forth, using this extreme effort to step into the Tempering Body realm.

  "What a powerful force!" Mantian muttered to himself, staring at the bronze glow that was filled with strange patterns. He was taken aback, and the burst of light had patterns - this was the mark of the Tempering Realm!! Had he entered the Tempering Realm? Mantian was completely stunned. He had originally thought that it would take years of bitter cultivation to step into the Tempering Realm, but he hadn't expected such a huge gain from sinking into the furnace this time.

  "Barbarian Heaven, congratulations on entering the Tempering Body realm! I'm afraid you're the fastest among all the disciples in recent years to enter this realm!" Xiong Yue said with a complex tone as he walked forward. Undoubtedly, Barbarian Heaven's bloodline and talent were enviable and admirable, Xiong Yue found it hard to imagine that just a month ago, Barbarian Heaven was still an ordinary person, yet now he had surpassed him.

  "Great heavens! Congratulations!" Kutu also walked over from the front, his face a complex mix of emotions.

  Man Tian turned his head to look at the three people walking towards him from both sides, a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Thank you, this time it's really just good luck!" Then, Man Tian looked at the iron anvil that had been smashed into four pieces, and couldn't help but sigh. He was about to say something when his stomach growled loudly, and a wave of hunger swept over him. He looked awkwardly at the three people and said: "I'll eat something first!" After speaking, he ran into the room and took out the dried meat he had received, devouring it voraciously.

  After almost finishing the food he had received last time, Man Tian felt barely full. He walked out of the room and greeted Gu Tu before hastily heading to War Peak with Xiong Yue and his brother.

  Watching the three people leave, Gu Tu's expression was stiff, and his eyes flickered as he said: "Is it just good luck? If so, then it's also great!" After finishing speaking, his gaze swept over the iron anvil, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. Should he also learn from Mo Tian and continuously forge for ten days like him?

  Before entering the room, Man Tian and his two companions heard a muffled groaning sound coming from inside. Pushing open the door, they saw Man Zhu struggling to sit up, his hands unable to move, relying solely on his abdominal muscles! Fortunately, his injuries had improved significantly compared to ten days ago! Seeing this, Man Tian was overjoyed and said: "Man Zhu, don't move! Don't rush, your wounds need time to heal. Continue taking the elixir from Bai Xian'er, and you might be able to walk freely in a month!"

  Manzhu's whole body went limp, and he lay on the bed, looking at Mantian. A smile appeared on his rough face: "Hmmm! Baixian'er's medicine is very effective! Although my limbs are unable to move, I can feel the medicinal properties of the medicine entering the wound. At this rate, maybe after a few months, I'll be able to fully recover!"

  Man Tian's smile trembled slightly, Bai Xian'er had said that in order for Man Zhu to fully recover, he needed the blood of a Four-Petaled Fierce Beast! Ordinary elixirs were far from enough to cure Man Zhu! Seeing the hopeful look in Man Zhu's eyes, a hint of pain flashed across Man Tian's eyes, and his smile grew even brighter as he said, "Mm!!"

  "Baron, I couldn't have imagined that you would sacrifice your life for an ordinary person! But now, I must admire how wise your decision was!" said Xiong Yue as he looked at Man Zhu.

  Man Zhu looked at Xiong Yue with a puzzled expression, then turned to Man Tian! With a tired smile, he said: "He is my brother!"

  Xiong Yue and Xiong Hong were stunned, the two words "brother" enough to explain everything! For brothers, willing to bury oneself for a lifetime! This is brotherhood, brothers who share weal and woe together!
