With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal

There are quite a few people at the resource exchange.

But fortunately, the United University temporarily added some exchange windows, and Meng Chuan only had to wait in line for ten minutes.

He unzipped his backpack and poured out a big pile of materials, which quickly stacked up into a small mountain on the table.

The most abundant of which was [Thorn Demon Bark].

There were fewer Lower Rank Withered Wood Puppet Lumps.

This was because Meng Chuan couldn't take too many at the time, leaving quite a few on the battlefield unattended.

"Wow, that's a lot."

The staff member adjusting her glasses looked somewhat surprised.

Many Three-Limit Martial Arts Masters have their own channels for resource digestion.

So, after a day's work, Meng Chuan's haul was the largest she'd seen.

Others, regardless of whether they were Martial Artists or from a Martial Arts Family, looked enviously at Meng Chuan's pile.

"So much... must be worth at least two thousand credits, right?"

"Awesome, you guys missed it, but I saw it with my own eyes.

Comparable to a Middle Rank Celestial Demon, the kind with three big mouths, Brother Chuan took them down, just like a father dealing with his son."

The Martial Arts Family member at the neighboring exchange window remarked to his companion:

"Sigh, it's just like a snowball effect, the stronger the person, the more resources they gather.

The snowball gets bigger and bigger, and before long, we might have to call him Senior Meng."

"Well... why not start calling him that now? It could help us get familiar."

"...I wouldn't dare to be as shameless as you."

From the far-left window, Chu Yanlong approached Meng Chuan.

He had just exchanged his materials for credits.

A full 900 points, converted to money, it surpassed the ten million mark; the harvest wasn't bad.

"Xiaomeng, how much did you earn?"

Chu Yanlong asked as he leaned over.

Turning back, Meng Chuan replied with a smile:

"The staff is calculating."

Fixing his gaze, Chu Yanlong inhaled sharply.

He saw the counter in the staff's hand jump, with the sound of "+80" coming repeatedly.

"A single Middle Rank Bark is worth 80 credits..."

Chu Yanlong muttered to himself.

Recalling his own overnight battle that netted six Thorn Demons, plus the scattered collection of Lumps.

It all added up to only 900 credits.

At this moment, Meng Chuan's material count was only halfway done.

The staff had already announced a staggering figure of "Accumulative 1000 credits".

A moment later, once everything was accounted for, the staff announced a total of 2078 credits.

Meng Chuan nodded, confirming it was indeed much higher than he anticipated.

As expected from the United University, impressive!

Beside him, Chu Yanlong was already numb, wondering what his opponent went through yesterday to bring out over twenty pieces of bark...

The Thorn Demons were formidable, with each one requiring him more than an hour to defeat, including recovery time.

Exhausted, he couldn't possibly kill that many...

Thinking of this, Chu Yanlong couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked:

"Xiaomeng... how did you get so many?"

Meng Chuan was still digging into his pocket, yet to withdraw the most precious treasure.

Upon hearing this, he smiled lightly and said:

"Is it a lot? It's alright. My Fist Blade is quite sharp; just one punch each."

He could have harvested more, but towards the end, Thorn Demon numbers dwindled, hiding in shadows.

Searching for them became even more laborious than combat.

"One punch each..."

Chu Yanlong couldn't help but click his tongue.

He increasingly appreciated his decisive demand for his brother Chu Yanhu to bow before Meng Chuan and apologize.

The scariest part was, the other party had just entered the ranks of a Martial Arts Family.

With further growth, what can be imagined?

Reflecting on this, Chu Yanlong's smile grew even friendlier.

He firmly believed that Meng Chuan's future achievements would not be limited to Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Coming to, he saw Meng Chuan pull a glowing green crystal from his pocket and hand it to the other party.

"Is this... a Demon Core?"

The staff looked solemnly at the item in her hand.

Last night, Chen Cang contained only solid Celestial Demons.

Where did this virtual-type Celestial Demon Core come from?

"Dropped by the Upper Rank Green Wood Enchantress Demon, it disguised as a solid type but is actually a virtual Celestial Demon."

After Meng Chuan's explanation, the staff nodded privately.

The energy of this core was extraordinarily large, nearly reaching the peak of Upper Rank, enough to serve as a primary ingredient for top-tier second-grade True Martial.

With this in mind, she couldn't help but ask:

"This top-grade Upper Rank Celestial Demon... how did you deal with it?"

Meng Chuan replied nonchalantly:

"I succeeded in a sneak attack."

As soon as he spoke, the hall fell silent.

Chu Yanlong and the surrounding Martial Artists were all wide-eyed with disbelief.

Such an entity, not to mention a One-Limit Martial Arts Family member, even a Two-Limit wouldn't dare claim it could rival.

This Celestial Demon stands at the top of the Upper Rank, only graspable by a Martial Arts Master's hand.

Just a Martial Arts Family member, how did Meng Chuan accomplish this?

This feat had surpassed Chu Yanlong's understanding.

Entering One-Limit and taking down a top Upper Rank Celestial Demon, this wasn't just a challenge beyond his rank, it was a monstrous act defying martial arts tradition!

In a trance, he seemed to see a future Martial Arts Great Saint on the rise...

...

"Let's have a spar sometime."

After bidding farewell to Chu Yanhu, ignoring the crowd's astonishment, Meng Chuan exchanged all the materials and headed to the alchemist's chamber at the United University.

Walking down the road, Meng Chuan felt a surge of emotion.

The value of that Upper Rank core was indeed significant; just a single piece exchanged for two thousand credits, far exceeding his reserve price.

Previously, when browsing the University Mall, he saw the Fog Nightmare Core valued at 800 credits, which was a mere fraction in comparison.

However, Meng Chuan came to a realization that this Aogaki Seductress was merely a step away from being [Title Level].

Therefore, the value of its core could not be judged by common reasoning.

Snapping back to reality, Meng Chuan presented his access card for the Grandmaster Class to the school's alchemist.

"Old master, I'd like to look at the [Qi Armor Spirit Pill]."

Initially, he considered ordering directly on his phone, but with each pill priced at 500 credits, comparable to a piece of Demon Rabbit armor.

Thus, he decided to first investigate the quality of the pill before making a decision.

"Alright, young man, hold on a moment."

The elderly man in charge of the alchemist's chamber turned around and retrieved a black pill, resembling an oversized chocolate bean.

Handing it to Meng Chuan, he smiled and said,

"You're quite loaded, young man, wanting to use pills at the First Limit."

Meng Chuan smiled slightly, indeed feeling much more relaxed financially after selling his previous day's loot.

To fulfill the bold declarations he made when he exited seclusion.

For the sake of obtaining the [Martial Extreme True Inheritance].

This Great Pill, priced at five hundred credits each, was a necessary purchase...

Meng Chuan took the Qi Armor Spirit Pill, inspecting it carefully in his hand.

Its value surpassed that of two houses, prompting him to examine it cautiously, fearful it might fall.

"All of these were newly refined at the start of the month. Their vitality is substantial, rest assured."

Hearing this, Meng Chuan brought the pill to his nose, taking a deep breath before his divine thought surged forth.

In the next moment, a strange fragrance emerged.

The scent cascaded like a waterfall, forming into a Black Armor Demon in his sea of consciousness.

As the armor plates on its back surged and rolled, it hinted at a resonance among acupoints.

Suppressing his thoughts, it immediately transformed into a gentle medicinal aura, swirling through his meridians before dispersing.

This was precisely the visual representation of the pill's vitality.

The essence of this pill naturally benefits the accumulation of Qi Blood in meridians and the mutation of acupoints.

The old man was quietly amazed by this scene.

The imagery from the pill was indeed inspired by the Qi Armor Demon, its main ingredient.

This celestial demon was not only extremely rare but also immensely powerful, few First Limit Martial Artists could rival it.

Seeing Meng Chuan suppress it instantly, the old man swallowed back the warning he wanted to give.

Having appraised it, Meng Chuan set down the pill and immediately said,

"Not bad, old master, I'll take... four pills first!"

Four pills were enough to last a month, just right for quickly accumulating Qi Blood while facilitating the mutation of the Baihui Acupoint.

The old man's brows furrowed; four pills required two thousand credits, not a small sum.

There are no cheap pills to aid a martial artist's cultivation.

More crucial than external items like the True Martial Armor is one's own Martial Arts prowess.

Moreover, the golden age for Martial Artists to break through to Grandmaster is generally before the age of forty.

Beyond this age, the Qi Blood of a Martial Arts Master isn't as vigorous, and the body enters a stable period.

This affects their success rate in breaking through to Grandmaster.

This is the direct reason for the high cost of the [Qi Armor Spirit Pill].

The demand exceeds the supply; everyone wants to quickly advance and seize a slim chance to break through to Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Coming back to his senses, the old man glanced at Meng Chuan's Grandmaster Class access card, then turned to retrieve three more pills from the cabinet.

"Last night in the Demon Nest of Chen Cang, it seems you made quite a profit, kid.

Alright, there's no purchase limit for the Grandmaster Class, totaling two thousand credits.

Each pill's effect can last about a week to ten days.

Our school uses top-notch auxiliary materials for refining, basically ensuring nine days of efficacy."

"Understood."

For this kind of Martial Arts Pill, students in ordinary classes can't purchase them, nor do they have as much use for it.

Only after becoming a progressing Martial Artist can one exchange for a pill each month.

Only Grandmaster Class students and teachers of Two Limits or above have no restrictions on purchasing such martial arts resources.

Because they are also considered rare, strategic resources.

Production is very limited and must be prioritized for those who "need it more."

"Alright, thank you, old master."

Meng Chuan grimaced as he completed the transaction, watching two thousand credits vanish from his card as he took the pills.

"I still have 3,400 credits... It's alright."

Credits unspent are wasted sitting there.

Once you've got money, you should use it to improve, spend it, and buy more!

...

Early the next morning.

As soon as Meng Chuan woke up, he noticed something unusual in his body.

Through introspection, his bones and muscles were covered with specks of green light.

Like a layer of thin moss.

He turned his gaze toward the Dragon Demon, now shriveled and dark, instantly understanding.

"Has the essence of the wood returned, turning my bones and muscles green?"

Retracting his inner sight, Meng Chuan tested his arms, throwing a punch.

With his current meticulous control, he noticed a slight difference.

With another focused consideration, he pondered,

"The fist strength feels like... a compression followed by a rebound, a strong penetrating sensation."

Lightly tapping a stone plinth in the courtyard, the previously fierce and overbearing strength now seeped like a spring into the sand.

The essence of wood adhered to the muscles and bones, allowing the Fist Strength to penetrate beyond the surface of the stone plinth, shattering fine cracks inside.

"I see, the qualities of wood essence and the characteristics related to the Wood Element are akin to the same principle.

Both enhance the destructive force of Dark Strength and increase penetrating damage."

But it was different from Dark Strength; it was more of a natural property.

No special technique was needed to exert force; a simple punch could allow ordinary attacks to pierce to the bone.
