With his physical strength reaching 1000 kg, Li Chen clearly felt his skin and flesh becoming denser and with the flexibility of his muscles, it turned hard like a rock. In addition, shallow footprints were left in the courtyard after Li Chen walked past him, he estimated that he was gaining a bit of weight.
'Once the body refinement technique reaches the next stage, will my weight be several times or even ten times more than the average person?' Li Chen was very curious about the unknown.
He felt it was very possible.
With the Crimson Battle Form at the first rank, Li Chen was trying to advance towards the second rank.
The method of circulating qi for the second rank was much more complex, one careless movement could cause the meridians to collapse. So during the circulation of qi, one must be meticulous and leave no room for error.
And yes, body pills are still needed.
But what was important was whether one could withstand the overwhelming pain during the second rank cultivation process; as one that needed to be immersed in boiling water during cultivation.
Without the help of qi, humans are still mortal and are not immune to boiling water.
To do so, it takes a strong determination like iron.
***
There was a large jar in the courtyard, underneath which was firewood.
With the large jar filled with water, Li Chen sat inside, leaving only his head sticking out of the water.
With a hot blaze, the water in the urn began to boil. Li Chen's skin was cooked like shrimp, entirely red, and his face was constantly twitching in pain.
The pain was overwhelming, as if his entire body was burned.
He wanted to give up many times but he finally persevered.
As one famous saying goes, 'One can never attain glory and riches, without going through trials and tribulations.
If he could not even endure this small ordeal, he would definitely regret it in the future.
Forcefully enduring the pain, Li Chen circulated his qi cycle after the cycle, trying to overcome the pain with qi strength.
Finally after 2 hours.
Pangs!
With both hands hitting the end of the Jars, Li Chen jumped out of the Jars.
One could see many blisters on the surface of Li Chen's skin, this was an indescribable type of torture.
Had he not gone through the agony of retracting his soul spirit, Li Chen would never have been able to endure until now.
With his entire body covered, Li Chen fell into the dilemma of choosing to suffer pain while standing or sitting, or perhaps even lying down.
She was!
Ignoring the pain, Li Chen sat down and prepared to cultivate the Red Battle Fist Style technique written inside the Crimson Battle Form.
The Red Battle Fist Style was able to activate all the muscles and bones within the body, which was something that was impossible with just the circulation of qi.

In the afternoon, the blistered skin turns into dead skin and begins to peel off, leaving a light scar.
Develop sword arts in the morning, Red Fire Techniques at noon, and Crimson Battle Form in the afternoon. Then ending the day by soaking in the medicinal herbs, Li Chen spent every day filled with satisfaction.
All the pain and suffering had now turned into a strong foundation of martial arts.
With the development of the second rank Crimson Battle Form on the fifth day, cracking and popping sounds could be heard from Li Chen's body.
Every inch of his flesh and bones changed.
Jumping out of the Grandson, Li Chen easily grabbed a stone that weighed a thousand kilograms and lifted it.
This meant that Li Chen's strength had exceeded 1000 kg and he had officially stepped into the second rank of the Crimson Battle Form technique.
Li Chen used all the remaining 6,000 of his contribution points to redeem more body pills.
24 Pills.
Currently, Li Chen could lift a 1500 kg stone easily and could easily make a hole in the ground with a fist. He had an abnormal density of muscles and flesh, which made him immune to strength of less than a few hundred kilograms.
“I've run out of contribution points and body pills. I need to think about
the solution. ”
Li Chen knew he could not go back fishing at Cang Lan Lake, because he was sure, people would pay attention to him.
"Maybe I can look for ore in the Ore Mountain"
The Cang Lan Mountains were full of rich minerals and ores; countless ore mountains lived within them.
Mountain ore produces various metal ores, which are separated into classes such as yellow grade ores, mystic grade ores, earth grade ores, etc …
Low grade and yellow ores reach 1 ~ 3 points per kg.
Middle grade ore, yellow grade, 5 ~ 10 points per kg.
High grade, yellow grade 15 ~ 30 points per kg.
Peak Rate, yellow grade up 50 ~ 10 points per kg.
The mystic grade and earth grade ores are rarely seen. There was a time when an outer sect disciple found 1 kg of peak level, yellow ore, he was awarded 50,000 points for it.

Mount Keng Qiang was a large but abandoned ore mountain in the Cang Lan Mountains.
When Li Chen arrived, it was already the afternoon of the third day since he left.
The sun shone on the vast and heavy Mount Keng Qiang, giving off a layer of metallic color. Perhaps due to the incredible hardness of the rocks, there was no life, not even grass was difficult to grow here.
“Keng Qiang Mountain is one of the largest derelict ore hills, there should be little treasure missed. "Gneering at the mountain, Li Chen nodded to himself.
Although Keng Qiang Hill was a single mountain, it was actually a merger of several large mountains and dozens of small hills. Among these mountains are intersecting valleys.
Following the mountain trail, Li Chen entered Keng Qiang Mountain.
“Without surprise, there are many ores in
approximate. ”
Just a few steps away, Li Chen discovered raw iron ore. It was a low grade, yellow ore that was worth 1 point per kg.
Toying with the stone, Li Chen threw it away.
Raw iron ore is worthless, unless there are several hundred kilos.
Walking further up the mountain, there were many ores lying on the wall. Mount Keng Qiang was excavated a long time ago, when cracks appeared during mining and since then after many years and environmental erosion, collapse is common.
"Hmm? This is the Silver Snow ore. ”
In the depths of the dark cliff, Li Chen looked around and found a piece of dark silver ore.
Snow Silver Ore, top grade ore, yellow in color. Each kilogram is worth 20 contribution points and this piece is about 4 or 5 kg.
Quickly, Li Chen raised his head and looked at the side of the canyon.
Li Chen saw on the left cliff, that there was an untouched looking point of land that was tens of meters high.
With his heartbeat, Li Chen had an idea of what he should do next …
