High-Level Martial Era

Wan Qinghe really did want Li Yuan\'s help.

However, he wouldn\'t ask lightly, he had patience, and needed an excellent opportunity.

Before that.

What Wan Qinghe needed to do was to continually strengthen his ties with Li Yuan.

...

A day after signing the contract with the Martial Hall, which was October 8th.

In the evening, while Li Yuan was training in the underground martial arts room, he received two transfer notifications in succession.

"Your account ending in 1486 has received 19.2 million Blue Star Coins..."

"Your account ending in 1486 has received 13.44 million Blue Star Coins..."

Two sums of money.

One was the cash reward for the \'second year\' of the contract.

The other was to make up for the shortfall in the first year of the contract.

Of course, taxes had to be deducted, and the total amounted to 32.64 million Blue Star Coins.

"This time, the Martial Hall\'s S-grade contract paid me quickly," Li Yuan said with a smile.

He clicked on his smart bracelet to enter the wealth section and saw his financial status:

Bank balance: 96.51 million Blue Star Coins

Martial Hall Points: 41.18 million

...

"Points, they\'ve topped me up with over 40 million all at once?" Li Yuan sighed to himself.

As for the Martial Hall Cultivation Points? They too had increased by several tens of millions.

If one only purchased cultivation resources within the Martial Hall, Martial Hall Points were as effective as Blue Star Coins.

"With the contract update, my privileges within the Martial Hall have also been enhanced, not only has the treasury updated its purchase catalog with plenty of \'Heavenly Materials Treasures\', it seems the database has also been enriched quite a bit," Li Yuan quickly perused within the Starfire app.

Having been upgraded from an A-grade contract\'s L4 level to L6, it was a comprehensive enhancement.

"Tomorrow, Teacher Li Yang will supervise me using the \'Hundred Marrows Spirit Dry\'." Li Yuan thought to himself.

"In October, I\'ll first buy 6 portions of High Origin Spirit Spring with points."

Thus, together with the 4 portions of High Origin Spirit Spring that the school provided for free, that would be 10 portions.

"That should be enough for October\'s cultivation."

...

On October 9th, under Li Yang\'s supervision, Li Yuan used the \'Hundred Marrows Spirit Dry\' once again.

He underwent yet another nightmare-like ordeal.

However, although he still screamed in agony, his performance was significantly stronger than when he used it in September.

This continuous transformation of his willpower left Li Yang increasingly astonished.

...

As time went on day by day.

The newcomer competition among the ten schools had created some impact worldwide, and Li Yuan\'s fame within Kunlun Martial University had topped the list, already surpassing Jin Huguo.

However, as the competition concluded, Li Yuan\'s life gradually returned to normal.

On October 10th, Li Yuan received a notice from the school.

A total of 18 units of Stellar Earth Marrow Crystals had arrived at the school\'s \'treasury\' and were allocated under his name, ready for use at any time.

Without hesitation.

Li Yuan applied to use them.

...

On the afternoon of October 11th.

The main building of the Vermilion Bird Building, where underground lies Kunlun Martial University\'s premier \'Pillar of Spirit\'.

On the third floor above ground.

Guided by a teacher, Li Yuan came to a very special chamber.

"Li Yuan, the items have already been placed in the room," the teacher reminded, "The handover process is fully monitored, so you can be at ease."

"They can only be used within the room, do not take them out, and you have access to the cultivation room for one day."

"Thank you, Teacher Zhu," Li Yuan said with a smile.

He pushed the door and entered the room, noting the door was extremely thick, certainly over 30 centimeters, appearing to be made of alloy and very heavy.

The defense must be astonishing.

"This room is really small," Li Yuan glanced around, noting the room was only about ten square meters.

Apart from two air vents and a door, there were no other gaps.

In the room, there was only a meditation cushion and a table.

The most special features were the four walls, as well as the ceiling and floor, which seemed to be cast from alloy.

Without a doubt, extremely sturdy.

"Everything is for safety," Li Yuan entered the room and the door gently closed behind him.

Approaching the table, there lay a porcelain tray on which rested an object the size of a baby\'s fist, earthen yellow and translucent like jelly.

At first glance, it appeared ordinary, but upon closer inspection, one could feel the strong vitality it emitted.

"Is this the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal?" Li Yuan mused inwardly, noting that it looked quite similar to the sample shown in the \'instructional video\' he had seen that morning.

He pondered for a while.

"Go ahead and eat, a Third Rank treasure, this piece might be worth tens of millions of Blue Star Coins, maybe even a hundred million," Li Yuan murmured to himself.

How expensive was the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal, exactly? Li Yuan did not know.

Gulp~

Li Yuan swiftly picked up the tray, opened his mouth, and swallowed the unit of Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal whole.

It melted upon entering his mouth.

Swiftly, the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal had been swallowed into his stomach, and within just a few seconds, it seemed to react with his body, sending a surge of rich, strange power quickly spreading throughout his body.

"Hm?" Li Yuan suddenly started.

So comfortable!

It had been a long, long time since Li Yuan had felt this comfortable.

"Both are Third Rank treasures, so why was the Marrow Cleansing so painful, and this is so comfortable? Why such a big difference?" Li Yuan muttered to himself.

Time passed.

Li Yuan could clearly feel the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal transforming into streams of strange power, continuously merging into his flesh, bones, blood, skin, and deep within his marrow.

An endless surge of vitality was fusing into countless cells, causing the deepest layers of transformation within Li Yuan.

"Activity, vitality." As an expert with Subtlety in mind, Li Yuan could perceive these special changes.

Something like the Marrow Cleansing was for cleansing the marrow, in addition to tormenting people.

The High Origin Spirit Spring, on the other hand, was for pushing the body\'s evolution.

But the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal, part of its function was to strengthen the body, but its core function was \'enhancing life potential,\' increasing the body\'s foundation.

In short, it was about raising the upper limit of the body\'s growth talent.

At this moment, Li Yuan felt incredibly comfortable and he reveled in the subtle transformations of his body.

"No wonder Master Fei said that once I use the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal, it would greatly increase my success rate in Law Creation," Li Yuan sat cross-legged, mentally sensing his whole body.

The greatest difficulty in Law Creation was when guiding Origin Power incorrectly it would backlash against the body, causing injury.

In that moment, the body\'s life potential was very important.

Just like a 20-year-old and a 50-year-old, both may seem to have similar strength, speed, and other physical data.

But if both suffered the same injury, who would recover faster?

Being young means greater life potential, such is natural law.

This was also why Dean Hai repeatedly hoped that Li Yuan would become a Prime Warrior as soon as possible.

And the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal could further enhance Li Yuan\'s \'life potential.\'

"To be consumed once a month," Li Yuan silently pondered: "In total, it can last 18 months."

"Together with the Marrow Cleansing and High Origin Spirit Spring, my cultivation speed will be even faster."

...

After consumption, under the effect of that strange power, Li Yuan\'s life potential was continuously improving.

This enhancement was consolidating his foundation.

In the future, as Li Yuan\'s strength grew even stronger, its effects would gradually become apparent.

But a trace of strangeness was also fortifying Li Yuan\'s body, slowly advancing his physical quality.

Finally, after over four hours,

The effects of this unit of Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal gradually faded, and Li Yuan ended this long \'enjoyment.\'

Suddenly.

"[Your Life Level has risen from 13.9 to 14.0]"

"[Your Fist Strength has increased from...]"

"[Your Burst Speed has increased from...]"

"[Your Life Level is now sufficient to accommodate Spiritual Guidance]" Four consecutive Divine Palace notifications flashed.

Phew!

Li Yuan\'s eyes snapped open, a hint of light twinkling within.

Finally, his Life Level had reached Level 14.

Li Yuan could feel some special changes occurring within the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.

...

Once he confirmed the full effects of the Stellar Earth Marrow Crystal had taken hold,

Li Yuan quickly left the Vermilion Bird Building, took a flying vehicle, and returned to his villa.

He went down to the Martial Arts Room.

"Spiritual Guidance," Li Yuan immediately sat down cross-legged, and with a thought, his consciousness entered the inner world.

...In the inner world, the towering four-layered Divine Palace stood imposingly, and Li Yuan\'s consciousness quickly entered.

His consciousness condensed, and as he looked around, just as he expected, the white jade staircase that had disappeared twice before

Had appeared once again.

"Are you asking me to go upstairs?" Li Yuan felt guided to do so in the depths of his mind.
