I Don't Want to Be a Peerless Prodigy

After obtaining so many breakthrough points in such a short period of time, Zhu Wuyang's heart was like dead ashes.

He knew that he was about to break through again!

Speaking of which, he had just stepped into the Perfected Golden Bones Refinement realm not long ago, and he was about to break through to the next realm.

Skin Refinement, Fleshly Body Refinement, Tendons Refinement, Golden Bones Refinement… and then the Five Viscera Refinement!

If the first four major realms of the Body Tempering stage were external tempering, the next few realms were internal tempering. Only by fusing the internal and external realms could one reach the peak of perfection, refine mysterious inner Qi, and condense Inner Qi Seeds.

The external forging and internal tempering process advanced layer by layer, affecting and intertwining with each other.

As the breakthrough point surged, it transformed into a large amount of strange power that flowed through his entire body. Under the effect of the Grand Earth Limitless Technique, this strange power transformed into the purest Earth Qi and blood at an extremely fast speed.

Powerful, vast, pure… It condensed into large clouds of blood and Qi, and the color gradually became deep.

Only by increasing the strength of his blood essence could he temper his martial artist body more deeply.

When the Earth Qi and blood reached a certain level, it began to spread towards the internal organs. After being filtered through the skin, muscles, tendons, and bones, the originally sharp Earth Qi and blood became much gentler. This way, when it entered the internal organs, it would not harm them at all.

Everyone knew that the five internal organs were fragile and weak. If one was not careful, they would suffer injuries. The consequences were unimaginable. At best, they would damage their foundation, and at worst, they would die on the spot.

Even on Earth, internal injuries were extremely serious.

Not to mention, at this moment, Zhu Wuyang wanted to use his powerful and sharp Earth Qi and blood to temper his internal organs. If anything went wrong, it would definitely bring about tragic consequences for him.

Therefore, the Qi and blood power used to temper and nourish the internal organs had to first be filtered through the skin, muscles, tendons, and bones to make them gentle.

If there was no external tempering in the beginning, it would be very difficult for martial artists to carry out the subsequent internal tempering. External tempering was at the front and internal tempering was at the back. This was the best cultivation process.

According to the technique and method of the Grand Earth Limitless Technique, Zhu Wuyang filtered the vast Earth Qi and blood layer by layer and carefully guided it into his internal organs. He first began to temper his heart, small intestines, and gallbladder.

The gentle Earth Qi and blood were also divided into two parts. One part was gently hammering and polishing his body from the outside, while the other was nourishing and improving his innards from the inside out, combining and promoting each other.

With his previous experience of tempering his skin, muscles, tendons, and bones, Zhu Wuyang felt much more relaxed and stable when tempering his internal organs.

If not for the previous cultivation, it would definitely be very easy for problems to arise when he improved his internal organs in the future.

External and internal refinement were originally one. The two were closely connected, and the cultivation path was also advanced layer by layer. It was definitely not something that could be improved by cultivating randomly.

As his internal organs were tempered, Zhu Wuyang could clearly feel the increase in his strength. However, the greatest increase in his internal organs was not in strength and agility, but in endurance.

Once one tempered their internal organs, the endurance of a martial artist would soar and catch up to a galloping horse. In a day and night, they could travel hundreds of li. One could imagine how fast they were.

After the internal organs were strong, one could breathe deeply and have extremely long stamina.

After an unknown period of time, when the heart and small intestine were almost completely tempered, it also meant that Zhu Wuyang's strength had stepped into a new realm.

Initial stage of Five Viscera Refinement!

Under normal circumstances, only martial artists above the age of 20 could increase their strength to the fifth major realm of the Body Tempering realm. Even the geniuses of the outside world could only increase their strength to the Five Viscera Refinement realm at most at the age of 18.

However, Zhu Wuyang was only 17 years old at this moment, but he had already raised his strength to the Five Viscera Refinement realm. Not to mention in the Jiu Zhao Imperial Palace, he was already a prodigy in the outside world.

Most importantly, Zhu Wuyang cultivated the top, extremely difficult, and peerless Foundation Establishment martial technique, the Grand Earth Limitless Technique. Moreover, the Grand Earth Limitless Technique that Zhu Wuyang cultivated had a foundation that far surpassed the other Princes and Princesses.

In comparison, the current Zhu Wuyang could be said to be a peerless genius of the Jiu Zhao Nation.

Once the other Princes, Princesses, concubines, or the Mad Emperor, Zhu Zhenwu, found out about this, the outcome of Zhu Wuyang could be imagined.

Although he had just stepped into the Initial stage of the Five Viscera Refinement realm, Zhu Wuyang's strength was not inferior to a martial artist who had reached the Perfected Bone Marrow refinement realm in the outside world. He could even compete with those Blood Refinement realm martial cultivation with unstable foundations in the outside world.

Zhu Wuyang's comprehensive strength steadily surpassed that of ordinary Bone Marrow refinement martial artists. The strength he possessed with every move already exceeded 10,000 catties.

Although Zhu Wuyang's strength was still at the bottom in the Crown Prince Palace, with his current cultivation speed, it wouldn't be long before he could catch up.

But this was not what Zhu Wuyang wanted.

"Congratulations to the host for advancing to the Initial Stage of the Five Viscera Refinement realm for the first time in your life. You have obtained 2,000 breakthrough points…"

Zhu Wuyang had yet to use up the previous wave of breakthrough points. Now that he had broken through to the Initial Stage of the Five Viscera Refinement realm, Zhu Wuyang had obtained another wave of breakthrough points.

These breakthrough points combined with the previous breakthrough points, formed an even greater wave that swept towards Zhu Wuyang.

Zhu Wuyang could only continue to cultivate bitterly, transforming the strange power transformed from these breakthrough points into Earth Qi and blood. After filtering through several layers, he used the gentlest portion of Earth Qi and blood to temper his internal organs.

His intestines were being tempered at an extremely fast speed, and he was getting closer and closer to completion.

As long as he finished tempering his intestines and broke through the bottleneck, he would be able to step into the Mid-stage of the Five Viscera Refinement realm. Zhu Wuyang was clearly getting closer and closer to this realm.

It was so close that Zhu Wuyang closed his eyes in despair and could not help but say, "System, f*ck your sister!"

When Zhu Wuyang was struggling to withstand the waves of impact from the breakthrough points, the news that the Internal Affairs Supervisor, Zhu Jinzong, had personally gone to the Crown Prince Palace to comfort the "dying Crown Prince" Zhu Wuyang spread quickly throughout the palace.

Those with discerning eyes could naturally tell that Zhu Zhenwu was just putting on an act. Even if Zhu Wuyang could really live until the Mad Emperor, Zhu Zhenwu, was finished, it was impossible for Zhu Wuyang, who had no power or background, to become the Emperor of the Jiu Zhao Nation.

However, there were always some short-sighted and worried Princes and Princesses who felt that Zhu Wuyang had received Zhu Zhenwu's favor and might have a chance to ascend to the throne. Hence, they began to take action.

Although there were very few of them, compared to the "weak" Zhu Wuyang, it was still a disaster that he could not withstand.
