Realm-Hopping Martial Master

The might was astonishing. Those who achieved Great Success possessed the strength of five flood dragons, unmatched in power by their peers in the same realm.

Ranked twelfth among the Middle Grade Cultivation Techniques of the Da Jing Dynasty.

Indeed, although it's also a Middle Grade Cultivation Technique, one look and I know how much more powerful it is than my own break-limit Famished Tiger Roar Mountain Strength. Jiang Shu mused, clicking his tongue in amazement as he glanced over the introduction.

This Five Flood Dragons Merging Internal Organs Energy could be said to be all-encompassing. However, it had a clear disadvantage. Merging the internal organs required a variety of attribute-specific Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicine to constantly refine them. Paired with five Visualization charts, one could rapidly achieve Great Success.

For instance, the Poisonwood Dragon Energy required Martial Artists of the Refining Internal Realm to regularly consume third-level Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicine containing toxins. They would use their liver to refine the toxins, integrating them into their energy. Once the foundation was laid, every move and strike would contain various bizarre toxins, making them nearly impossible to defend against.

And these third-level Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicine were mostly only available to the imperial family and true noble families.

Although I could theoretically grind out the proficiency, without enough Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicine, I might not even be able to formally begin. If I can't even begin, what's there to grind?

Frowning slightly, Jiang Shu involuntarily looked towards the next technique.

Perhaps because the first technique, "Five Flood Dragons Merging Internal Organs Energy," was so astounding, the several Cultivation Techniques that followed seemed increasingly bland to Jiang Shu.

They could indeed temper the five internal organs, but they rarely offered improvements in combat ability. Even if I managed to perfect such a Cultivation Technique, I might only be slightly stronger than a Bone Forging Realm expert from Xuanxing, unable to dominate amongst peers in the same realm.

I am no longer the mere Martial Artist from Pingling County who didn't even understand the concept of energy. The Martial Artists of Pingling County are blocked by the mountains, completely unaware of how vast the world beyond is. During my Bone Forging Realm phase, simply executing some basic Martial Arts allowed me to dominate. That might work in a small county town, but in a city at the prefecture or state level... If I don't have a stable enough foundation, I might not even compare to the geniuses of the large families! In the future, I definitely won't be able to go far! Not to mention climbing onto the Little Dragon Tiger List, let alone the real Dragon Tiger List!

Five Flood Dragons Merging Internal Organs Energy. Either I don't learn it, or if I decide to, I must learn the most superior version. If I keep not finding one that satisfies me, then I can only choose this one! Although the entry-level difficulty is high, I could simply spend more time in the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm. I'll always be able to gather enough Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicine! It doesn't matter if my Martial Arts progress is slower in the early stages. I'll just consider it accumulating strength for a more substantial breakthrough!

With his determination growing stronger, Jiang Shu browsed through one book after another.

Even though every single one left him deeply disappointed, he still patiently continued, treating it as a way to understand the Five Internal Organs True Strength.

My disappointment is only because such a gem appeared first. These True Strength Cultivation Techniques actually all have their merits. Any one of them, if taken out, could cause Martial Artists to fight tooth and nail for it! It's just a pity...

Jiang Shu shook his head. In a short while, he reached the last row of books.

Just when he thought he would have to turn back and decide on choosing "Five Flood Dragons Merging Internal Organs Energy," he inadvertently flipped open the very last True Strength Cultivation Technique.

"Four Symbols Internal Energy."

The Four Symbols are: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise.

The Azure Dragon represents wood, refining the liver, specializing in healing.

The White Tiger represents metal, refining the lungs, specializing in slaughter.

The Vermilion Bird represents fire, refining the heart, specializing in burst power.

The Black Tortoise represents water, refining the kidneys, specializing in defense.

This True Strength Cultivation Technique is profound and mysterious. Although it only harnesses the power of four internal organs, its profound intricacies far surpass the Five Internal Organs True Strength.

Regrettably, this Four Symbols True Strength requires specific environments for successful cultivation. The conditions are severe. And with only four organs to refine, its potential is ultimately limited.

Ranked sixteenth among the Middle Grade Cultivation Techniques of the Da Jing Dynasty.
