The potion started taking effect instantly. He felt as if ants are crawling all over his body, sweat began pouring all over his body making his clothes were completely drenched.

He continued the breathing technique, his energy began to rise. second layer, third layer, fourth layer

Finally it stopped at fourth layer of body refinement. He now had the strength of seven bulls. He slowly ingrained the residual effects of the potion.

It looks like i need to start collecting herbs and concoct potions if i want to keep increasing my strength. The fist technique of hundred scholars, the Raging Fist Technique, might suit me for this power level. I remember the first level of the technique requires the user to cause break a boulder with the fist punch.

He went out into the woods again, stood in-front of a boulder, closed his eyes and released a slow breath. He moved his body and arms like the gentle flow of water, he collected all the energy into his right fist and abruptly striked the boulder with all his power. Boomm...!!!!

He opened his eyes and saw a small crack on the boulder, one would not notice the crack unless they looked keenly. "Looks like i need to practice more to master the first level of Raging Fist technique"

He returned to his room and slept, no no...more like started cultivating his Nine Origins Sleeping Technique.

Next day, "Tian!! wake up, you're getting late for school!", Tian hugged his quilt sobbing, 'Boohoo....i want to sleep more....sob sob...'. grandma wang came up and dragged him out of his bed, "Get up boy, why are you becoming so lazy day by day"

Today grandma made chicken momos for breakfast, Tian loved the taste of it. He munched down on them. 'I don't remember the last time i enjoyed my food like this', Tian was feeling nostalgic. The more he spent time, the more he fell in love with everything around him.

He met Zhang Tie and went on to his school.

"Hello Students, I am here to announce that we will be going on a trip to the Eastern Huang Forest in the next week. I hope everyone will break through into body refinement realm by then. Those who have not broken through will not be allowed on the trip, as there it will be dangerous for them", Miss Li stood there looking at the students, she glanced towards Tian for a second and then left the class.

"Hell! how am i going to break through to body refinement realm in just a week! My good Brother Tian, you have to help me. boo hoo....You have to take responsibility for me brother....Waahhh....", Zhang Tie clung onto Tians legs and started weeping like crazy, it was like a women who was cheated wanted him to take responsibility. Tian was speechless, he was anyhow going to help his brother to break through. He facepalmed and tossed him away.

Zhang Tie was getting stronger by the day, but he still had a long way to break through to body refinement realm. Tian knew that Zhang Tie will broke through soon if he cultivated his modified technique. But he still wanted to make sure he will break through within a week, 'Looks like its time to refine some potions again, i might as well refine some for the bandit brothers'

"Calm down you idiot. I'll make sure you'll break through before the trip, don't cling onto me like that", finally Zhang Tie calmed down. They started walking out home.

"I heard you are going to Eastern Huang forest for a trip. Be careful out there, i heard that there are a lot of dangerous beasts out there", it was Xiu Li. He was indirectly threatening them that they will face dangers during the trip.

Tian swiftly moved and before Xiu Li could react Tian swiped him off his legs and kicked him to the ground. "You dare to threaten me on my face!", Tian never cared for Xiu Li after breaking through to fourth layer. Xiu Li got into higher class only because of his father and brother, or else with his second layer body refinement stage, he should still be in the middle class.

Xiu Li was surprised by the sheer strength of Tian. He never imagined that Tian will broke through to body refinement realm and possess such immense strength. He started to feel jealous, he had so many resources with him, yet he wasn't able to break through to blood refinement realm and stuck at body refinement realm. He though after breaking through to third layer of body refinement, he will be able to handle Tian with his fingers, but everything he imagined became reverse.

"Lets go", Tian got Zhang Tie and moved on without even glancing at the utterly shocked Xiu Li.

Xiu Li cursed under his breath, 'Act arrogant all you want, when you go on the trip, i'll make sure you never return....heheheee.....', he gave off a sinister laugh and recovered from his trauma.

"Tian, you should control yourself more. Although you got strong and are able to beat Xiu Li, but his brother works with enforcement office. You shouldn't overdo it, its better to stay low brother", although he hated Xiu Li, Zhang Tie knew that his background was powerful and it isn't wise to stir trouble with them.

Tian went straight to the bandits and checked on their progress, "Not bad, all of you have improved. Lets see how strong you have got, come at me together", the bandits were overjoyed on their boss's arrival. They wanted to show they have grown stronger over the period.

But the very next moment, they were all lying on the floor moaning in pain. They were shocked by their boss's strength.

"Young Master is so strong, so amazing. Your greatness is so bright that it out shines everything", Number One started to start singing praises of his boss. As expected of being leader of bandits, he knew when to boot-lick and when to keep quite.

Tian was pleased with them, "You've done good, but you guys have a long way to break through into body refinement realm. Number one, go to the market and bring me these ingredients in the list", Tian passes a slip to him. He can go for them himself, but that would cause suspicions as he knew many people in the market.

"Boss, wouldn't it be easier for us to order online?", Number one didn't understand why they would have to go to the market when everything is available online.

Tian was fumbled, he realized that the technology of this world in very advanced. He can get whatever he wanted from one device.

I should get a mobile phone for myself, i can get anything without anyone's notice.

"You guys have a mobile phone?", Tian asked as he put front his hand.

"Yes Young master, this is the brand new model XII of Zeus. You can take 360 degree photos and videos with it, also you can connect it with Zeus VR Pro and experience 3D games, also there's this feature.....", Number four went on talking like a sales person. He was a technology fanatic. Whenever there is a new phone or technology released, he would have that information with him.

Tian was dazed with the information, he stopped him and took the mobile from his hands and went off to his home.
