Chapter 168 The Five Organs Perfected, Forging a Golden Body! A Self-Made Furnace Within the Body!
Inside the cramped single-person cabin, the air seemed to freeze.
The two high-grade spiritual source crystal cores turned into powder, and the violent energy disappeared into Lu Sheng's body like a mud ox entering the sea.
Lu Sheng remained in a cross-legged position, his brows slightly furrowed, his fingers unconsciously tapping his knees.
Quiet.
A deathly silence.
The pleasant "ding" sound I had expected did not ring, and I did not feel that lightness of breaking free from shackles. Instead, it felt like I had eaten too much but had indigestion, with a hot feeling stuck in my chest, neither rising nor falling.
"Um???"
Lu Sheng looked completely bewildered, then suddenly opened his eyes, his golden vertical pupils filled with huge question marks.
"What's wrong?"
He quickly opened the attribute panel.
Current Level: 6 (2500/2500)
The progress bar is already a deep red, clearly reaching the ceiling, but the number "7" just won't pop up.
"System, are you using a bug?" Lu Sheng asked in his mind. "You swallowed my crystal core and aren't doing your job?"
[Ding! Host life level about to jump.]
[Prerequisites for advancement to Level 7 Spirit Source User not met: Incomplete strengthening of the five internal organs.]
[Current progress: Cardiac strengthening level I (completed), Lung strengthening level I (completed), Remaining unstrengthened areas: Liver, Kidneys, Spleen.]
The system's mechanical voice poured cold water on Lu Sheng's enthusiasm.
"So it was because I was unbalanced in my studies..." Lu Sheng suddenly realized, and then another wave of toothache hit him.
This is the downside of self-taught individuals: focusing solely on strength and defense while neglecting the fact that the human body is a complex circulatory system.
The heart governs blood, and the lungs govern qi. Even if these two are strong, the liver governs tendons, the kidneys govern bones, and the spleen governs flesh. If these three are not up to par, it's like putting a Ferrari engine on a tractor. If you step on the gas, the chassis will fall apart.
"What should we do?" Lu Sheng asked. "Still rely on training?"
[The host can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and guide it to the corresponding organs for tempering (estimated time: 30 days/organ).]
[Forced enhancement can also be performed by consuming Spirit Source Crystal Cores (completed instantly).]
"Thirty days?" Lu Sheng curled his lip. "By the time I finish training, it'll be too late. If that old bastard Tian Zhen finds out, he'll probably have scattered my ashes."
He glanced at the pile of crystal cores left on the bed, a ruthless glint in his eyes.
Although it hurts, life is more important.
"Just upgrade it! It's not a problem for the money!"
[Ding! Organ enhancement panel activated.]
[Strengthen the Liver (Requires 10 High-Grade Spirit Source Crystal Cores)]
Strengthen Kidneys (Requires 10 High-Grade Spirit Source Crystal Cores)
Strengthen the spleen (requires 10 high-grade spirit source crystals)
"Strengthen the liver first!" Lu Sheng grabbed ten high-grade crystal cores and clenched them tightly.
"Snap!"
The crystal core shattered, and a torrent of vibrant blue energy surged through the meridians and rushed straight to the right rib.
[Ding! Enhancement successful! Level I Liver Enhancement!]
[Detoxification ability greatly enhanced! Resilience greatly enhanced!]
[Basic strength increased by 1500 jin!]
Lu Sheng felt a jolt throughout his body, like a bowstring snapping, and his vision seemed to clear up a bit.
"Awesome! Again!"
"Strengthens the kidneys!"
Another ten crystal cores were used up.
A surge of black energy flowed into my lower back, and my two kidneys instantly became scalding hot, like two small suns, pumping a continuous stream of energy throughout my body.
[Ding! Enhancement successful! Kidney Strengthening Level I!]
[Stamina greatly increased! Explosive power recovery speed increased by 50%!]
[Basic strength increased by 1500 jin!]
The feeling of heat in his lower back, as if he had inexhaustible strength, made Lu Sheng want to roar to the sky.
"The last one, the spleen!"
The last ten advanced crystal nuclei transformed into yellow light and entered the body.
[Ding! Enhancement successful! Spleen Strengthening Level I!]
[Significantly improved digestion and absorption! Increased muscle density!]
[Basic strength increased by 1500 jin!]
The moment all five internal organs were fully strengthened.
"Buzz—!!!"
A loud bell suddenly rang out from within Lu Sheng's body.
Upon internal inspection, the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were all radiating a dazzling golden glow!
The heart belongs to fire, the lungs to metal, the liver to wood, the spleen to earth, and the kidneys to water.
The five elements flow and regenerate endlessly.
The free spiritual particles that he originally needed to consciously meditate and open his pores to capture now seemed to be attracted by something fatal.
breathe--!
With each breath, the spiritual energy in the surrounding air flows like rivers flowing into the sea, automatically drawn into the body and refined in the furnace of the five internal organs, transforming into the purest energy.
"This is... the perfect balance of the five internal organs?"
As Lu Sheng felt the self-contained little world within his body, a wildly joyful smile curved his lips.
next second.
The notification sound, indicating that we were half an hour late, finally rang out like heavenly music.
[Congratulations, host! You have broken free from the shackles of life!]
[Successfully promoted to Level 7 Spirit Source User!]
As the system notification tone faded.
Rumble—!!
Lu Sheng felt as if a nuclear bomb had exploded inside his body.
The invisible barrier that had been suppressing him was instantly shattered into dust under the resonance of his internal organs and golden body.
The already surging spiritual energy and blood were now like a raging torrent, washing over every inch of blood vessels, every bone, and every cell.
This feeling is like a river that was originally just a small stream suddenly being widened into the Yangtze River.
[Promotion Reward: Base Strength +3000 jin!]
[Current Level: Level 7 Spirit Source User (0/5000)!]
[Status: The six internal organs are not strengthened (the gallbladder, stomach, large intestine, small intestine, bladder, and triple burner need to be strengthened to advance to level 8 spiritual source)]
Lu Sheng slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the ultimate pleasure brought about by this leap in the level of life.
It took a full five minutes for the storm inside my body to gradually subside.
He slowly opened his eyes.
"laugh--"
Two beams of golden light, almost tangible, shot out from the vertical pupils, casting two spots of light in the dim cabin. There was even a faint smell of burning electricity in the air.
Lu Sheng lowered his head and looked at his long, strong hands.
Her skin was fair, even possessing a warm, jade-like luster, completely concealing a terrifying power capable of tearing apart steel.
"This is level 7..."
Lu Sheng clenched his fist tightly.
Bang!
The air in his palm was instantly crushed and exploded, producing a muffled sonic boom.
"System, bring up the control panel."
[Host: Lu Sheng]
[Level: 7 Spirit Source User]
[Basic Strength: 14887 jin (approximately 7.4 tons)]
Speed: 180 meters per second
[Body Enhancement: Five Internal Organs Golden Body (Level I), Muscle Strengthening Level IV, Bone Strengthening Level I...]
......
Looking at that impressive string of data, Lu Sheng's lips curled up into a wide smile, and he finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Fifteen thousand catties..."
This is just the basic strength under normal circumstances!
It should be noted that even Tian Yonghua and his fellow Level 7 drowning victims only had a basic strength of around 7,000 to 8,000 jin at most.
He exceeded the limit by 50%!
"If I activate the human-dragon form..."
