This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 413 - 108: Ghostly Foot

Chapter 413 -108: Ghostly Foot

June 10, morning.

Li Fei held the Ghost Slash Blade as he walked into Wuda’s Exotic Beast Breeding Area, making his way to the small mountain where Shi Caiming lived.

Since he had killed the “Poison King” and “Gun King” a few days ago, Li Fei had stayed and cultivated in Wuda, not causing any further trouble.

The Blood-faced Ghost had died that night, a silent agreement between Bian Jingru and him.

In fact, the Garrison Commander initially hadn’t planned it that way, but that night forced his hand.

Li Fei killed the “Poison King” and “Gun King” not only for revenge but also to strengthen himself.

Bian Jingru was willing to save the Green-faced Ghost because the “blade” was of great utilitarian value.

Li Fei wanted to enhance the value of the Green-faced Ghost even more!

The former “Seven Kings” of Datong Prefecture, except for the “Sword King” who was killed by Xu Jing, the rest—the “Beast King,” “Gun King,” “Poison King,” “Queen”—were all slaughtered by Li Fei…

Now, just the “Shadow King” and “Gambling King” remained.

After killing the “Gun King” and “Poison King,” the items left by the “Beast King” allowed Li Fei to smoothly take over, and from then on, he dominated the Exotic Beast Food market of Datong Prefecture.

He could also swallow some of the powers left by these two.

One of Li Fei’s targets for revenge was the Inspector of Feng Province, the Family Head of the Canglin Lu Clan.

So, he needed not only powerful martial strength but also to build a stronger force.

Nowadays, the Green-faced Ghost, after killing the officials of the provincial city, could only remain safe with Bian Jingru’s protection.

What if one day in the future, speaking a word in Datong Prefecture as the Green-faced Ghost King would have even more weight than the Garrison Commander Bian Jingru? Would he not then be able to kill more recklessly?

Thinking about the future development of the Qingyuan City Management Company, Li Fei reached the small mountain where Shi Caiming lived and climbed to the summit.

Shi Caiming had mentioned before that Li Fei could come up the mountain and consult with him once a week.

Having advice from a Great Grandmaster, Li Fei would not miss it, so when he encountered a bottleneck in his practice, he came with questions for Shi Caiming.

“Principal.”

Li Fei approached the edge of the cliff, bowing to Shi Caiming, who sat leisurely sipping wine in his lounge chair.

“Uh-huh.”

Shi Caiming drained his cup of wine, his face slightly reddened with a touch of tipsiness as he looked toward Li Fei:

“Do you need something?”

“Master left one Elixir in this blade, but I haven’t managed to master it. I wish for your guidance, Principal.”

Li Fei lifted the Ghost Slash Blade as he spoke to Shi Caiming.

Shi Caiming glanced at the Ghost Slash Blade in Li Fei’s hand.

When he first saw the mark on the blade, he sensed the Sword Intent it contained.

“I told you before; your master’s ultimate move had neared the threshold of the Grandmaster’s Domain. With your current Realm, trying to forcibly comprehend this move is too premature.”

Shi Caiming stated plainly.

Li Fei persisted, “I still wish to try.”

He was eager to become stronger and naturally did not want to miss out on such an ultimate move.

But Shi Caiming shook his head:

“It’s not about whether you are willing to try, this move involves the Fire Attribute Force, and you’ll at least need to have mastered the Innate Qi of the Fire Attribute to start practicing. You’ve only incorporated one implant so far; you don’t even meet the basic requirement. How would you try this? Overestimating oneself is not the way.”

Li Fei fell silent for a moment, then bowed again to Shi Caiming:

“What should I practice now? Please direct me, Principal.”

He was not one to ignore advice, and he readily acknowledged his errors.

Shi Caiming watched Li Fei’s respectful bow, a flicker of admiration crossing his eyes.

The more talented the individual, the more confident they often were, very self-centric.

However, Li Fei did not have the same faults that he had seen in other prodigies of the past, which pleased him greatly.

Great talent, humble and respectful, and willing to listen.

Teaching such a student was truly a pleasure!

“Didn’t you practice the Red Sound Fire Vajra Skill before? Show it to me.”

Shi Caiming said.

Upon hearing this, Li Fei immediately began circulating the Vajra Force within his body.

After preparing, he directly slashed at Shi Caiming!

The next second, countless brilliant beams burst forth from the blade, illuminating the mountaintop with dazzling light.

“Too dispersed.”

Shi Caiming’s voice echoed through the light:

“The form is scattered, and even more so the spirit. The Infinite Bright Fire requires you to emit Infinite Light, but it doesn’t mean you should disperse your Force and focus into countless fragments.”

As his critique sounded, the light on the mountaintop quickly converged, ultimately focusing into a single point.

Shi Caiming extended a finger to meet the tip of the Ghost Slash Blade, where a pearl-sized orb of light formed.

This orb contained all of Li Fei’s essence, Qi, and spirit released by that slash!

This extraordinary display left Li Fei in awe.

“Infinite Light means that even a single thread of light is boundless.”

Shi Caiming finished speaking, and without waiting for Li Fei to thoroughly grasp the change, flicked his finger.

The edge of the Ghost Slash Blade was deflected, and the orb of light struck Li Fei’s chest like lightning.

Li Fei instinctively activated his Vajra Force as a shield, but the extremely tough, touted as the “Eternal Wall” Vajra Force, before the tiny orb, was like snow under the blazing sun—it instantly “melted” away a hole!

The orb hit Li Fei’s chest and burst into infinite light.

Li Fei’s mind was startled, the world before his eyes disappeared, replaced by an expanse of brightness.

The intense heat seemed to completely melt him!

Li Fei slowly came to his senses after what felt like an eternity. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

“This is the direction you should practice next, figure it out yourself.”

Shi Caiming said this as he poured himself another glass of wine and began to drink.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to give more guidance to Li Fei, but at the level of ‘Tao Power’, even the wisest teacher in the world could only inspire their students through demonstration and not through direct instruction.

Shi Caiming could only point out the path and demonstrate it; the rest was up to Li Fei.

Li Fei stood still, slowly closed his eyes, and recalled every detail of the moment.

Time passed slowly, and Li Fei stood there from dawn until sunset.

Shi Caiming, sitting in a lounge chair, had finished three pots of wine and smoked four packs of cigarettes, even taking a nap in between.

Just as he was about to get up and go back inside, Li Fei, who had stood all day, suddenly moved.

He gripped the Ghost Slash Blade with both hands and slowly swung the blade forward.

A faint glimmer of light emerged from the blade, and ultimately, Li Fei unleashed a dim saber aura.

When the saber aura flew beyond the cliff, it suddenly burst into brilliant light!

The next second, the entire hillside was as bright as day.

The fierce light shone on Shi Caiming’s bald head, making it appear a bit brighter too.

He looked up at the dazzling sky, a smile appearing on his face:

“Good lad.”

Moving from emitting countless rays of light directly to bursting out countless rays from a single saber aura might seem minor, but it was actually a huge change.

Li Fei had already shown his extraordinary speed in cultivation, but he hadn’t shown much of his talent in other areas yet.

Shi Caiming had worried that Li Fei’s talents might only be in cultivation, unsure if he could inherit Hao Yi’s saber techniques.

But now, it seemed some legacies would never be broken.

…

June 14.

Li Fei had been visiting the hill where Shi Caiming lived every morning for several days now.

Even though Shi Caiming had mentioned Li Fei could visit once a week, he did not refuse him despite his frequent visits.

This morning, just as Li Fei was preparing to go find Shi Caiming, a box was delivered to the doorstep of his dormitory.

“Student Li Fei, this package was personally requested by the Principal to be delivered here, please check it.”

One of the instructors said to Li Fei.

“Requested by the Principal?”

Li Fei was startled, then thought of something, “Is it the ‘Implant’ I requested?”

“That’s right, this box contains a Third Grade lower level ‘Ghostly Foot’.”

The delivering instructor said.

“That’s great, thank you!”

Li Fei expressed his joy.

For him now, the quickest way to enhance strength was not to upgrade the Myriad Blood Pearl but to incorporate a new implant.

As soon as he integrated a new implant, his physique would be further strengthened, which meant that the number of Blood Souls would increase.

Besides, the limit of ‘Blood Rage’ would also increase.

Next, he could gain a new Extraordinary Ability and acquire new Innate Qi to enhance his force.

Li Fei believed that once he incorporated this new implant, his strength would definitely advance to a higher level!

After signing for the box, he eagerly brought it into his dormitory and opened it.

A cold breeze emerged from the box, which contained two lumps of pitch-black substance resembling sludge, emitting a fishy smell.

This was the Third Grade lower level dual attribute implant—’Ghostly Foot’.

The primary attribute of ‘Ghostly Foot’ was Earth Attribute, and it also possessed the Mutant Attribute Dark Attribute.

Its Earth Attribute could grant a common Extraordinary Ability—’Divine Movement’.

This ability allowed enhanced balance and speed on solid ground, moving swiftly and smoothly even in complex terrains.

Meanwhile, its Dark Attribute might allow the development of a Core Level Extraordinary Ability!

The five types of implants that made up Mixed Element Heavenly Gold theoretically could endow a Martial Artist with five Core Level Extraordinary Abilities.

Li Fei had already developed the Core Level Extraordinary Ability ‘Danger Perception’ with his ‘steel armor’. Next, he intended to attempt developing ‘Ghostly Foot’.

Having already learned the absorption techniques for ‘Ghostly Foot’ from books left by Hao Yi, Li Fei didn’t hesitate. He took off his shoes, then with fingers like blades, he made an incision on the sole of each foot.

Then, he took the two lumps of black ‘mud’ from the box and placed them into the wounds.

Upon contact with fresh blood, the two lumps quickly melted. Li Fei used his Qi to seal the wounds and took out a prepared Elixir to consume.

Next, he would start cultivating ‘Ghostly Foot’ from the Embryo Cultivation Stage.

However, as a Martial Artist in the Tao Foundation Stage, incorporating another implant was easier due to a sufficiently strong physique and having Innate Qi to stimulate the new implant, speeding up the cultivation process significantly.

Previously, it had taken Li Fei just over two months to cultivate his ‘steel armor’ from the Embryo Cultivation Stage to the Qi Change Stage.

Now, cultivating ‘Ghostly Foot’ would likely be even faster!

…

In the capital city of Feng Province, while Li Fei began absorbing ‘Ghostly Foot’, preparing for a new phase of cultivation.

Xu Jing was also preparing to begin devouring the Seventh Grade Exotic Beast, Azure Water Sky Cloud Beast.
