Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 12: Deficiency in the Body

Jiang Yuan swung his arm, causing the entire body of the old horse to rapidly retreat backwards.

He then swiftly leaped forward, using the momentum.

The brown bear saw Jiang Yuan charging towards it, and a cruel glint flashed in its eyes.

In the next moment, it roared angrily towards the sky, raising its bear paw high.

When it reached the highest point, the palm-sized bear paw suddenly swept downwards, covering almost half of the sky.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan still did not dodge or avoid, and continued to charge towards the brown bear.

Seeing this scene, a hint of worry flashed across the old horse's face.

He couldn't afford to directly face this palm!

The vitality of this brown bear was so strong that even though he was dozens of meters away, he could feel the immense pressure emanating from its body.

From his perspective, in terms of Body Tempering realm, this brown bear was no less than a master at the Blood Exchange level.

If you also consider its advantage in size, even a master at the Blood Exchange level would not dare to rashly face this palm.

But at this moment, Jiang Yuan clearly had no intention of avoiding.

Thinking of this, he immediately shouted, "Young Master, retreat quickly! Don't try to take it head-on!"

At the same time, the brown bear heavily swung down its giant paw.

It seemed to envision that in the next moment, this small and skinny human would be crushed into a pool of blood by its palm.

Thinking of this, it felt extremely pleased, and even wanted to howl towards the sky.

However, in the next moment when the two collided...

Bang!

A dull sound rang out.

Contrary to its wishes, its bear paw was firmly caught by that human.

It looked stunned, with a human-like confusion on its face.

In the distance, the old horse also looked stunned.

"How is this possible?"

His face was filled with disbelief.

In the next moment...

"Roar!"

Jiang Yuan shouted angrily, stomping his right foot on the ground.

Force surged from his foot, traveled along his spine, and rushed into his arms.

Under this force, the massive body of the brown bear was instantly lifted by Jiang Yuan.

Its paws slowly left the ground.

At this moment, fear filled the brown bear's eyes.

Experiencing this force firsthand, it finally understood that it was no match for the weak-looking man in front of it.

Even in its prime, it would never be able to match him.

In the face of this terrifying power, it had no qualifications to resist.

Moreover, it had already lost too much blood, and its strength was greatly diminished.

Not far away, the old horse stared in disbelief at this scene.

Muttering to himself, he said, "How is this possible!"

"Die!"

Jiang Yuan shouted angrily, swinging both hands down in a circular motion.

Boom!

A shocking sound erupted.

The ground trembled and rocks fell from the cliff, causing the earth to shake slightly.

The brown bear, struck by this blow, instantly collapsed and lay motionless on the ground.

At this moment.

The old horse's face was filled with incredulity. Jiang Yuan, who was only at the fourth level of the Body Tempering realm a month ago, a carefree young man, had now become a match for a Blood Exchange expert at the seventh level of the Body Tempering realm.

If this were to be told, no one would believe it.

No one would believe that Jiang Yuan, who was only at the fourth level of the Body Tempering realm a month ago and seemed like a playboy, had now become powerful enough to rival a Blood Exchange expert at the seventh level of the Body Tempering realm.

If this were to be told, people would just laugh it off as a topic for idle chat.

On the other side, Jiang Yuan approached the brown bear and looked down at it.

The brown bear's eyes revealed a pleading gaze.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan did not send it on its final journey, the old horse came to Jiang Yuan's side.

"Young master, shall I do it for you?"

"No need."

Jiang Yuan shook his head.

He lifted his leg and kicked his knee.

Bang!

A muffled sound.

The head of the brown bear instantly exploded like a water bag, lifeless.

Jiang Yuan walked towards the fiery red spiritual plant: "There's always a first time for everything. If I don't dare to take a life, how can I grow?"

"Young master has truly grown up. The late master can rest in peace in the heavens!"

Old Ma, who was behind him, said with relief.

"Uncle Ma, you are knowledgeable. Can you recognize what kind of spiritual medicine this is?"

Old Ma shook his head: "How can I recognize it? In my whole life, this is the first time I've seen a living spiritual medicine."

"Usually, these things are only in the hands of immortals. If we offer this to an immortal, we will enjoy endless glory and wealth for the rest of our lives."

Jiang Yuan smiled and remained silent.

In his heart, he didn't think much of it. Not to mention glory and wealth, even if it were ten thousand taels of gold, what would it matter?

This world was obviously extraordinary. Without strength, so-called glory and wealth would be nothing but empty promises.

Having enough strength, glory and wealth would be within easy reach.

Moreover, there were realms beyond the Body Tempering stage.

If his guess was correct, breaking through the Body Tempering stage would lead to the existence they referred to as immortals, with greatly increased lifespans.

In this case, what did wealth even matter?

This was the path to immortality!

In the history of the previous life, how many emperors were obsessed with the concept of immortality?

Who in the world could resist the temptation of the word "immortality"?

Old Ma suddenly asked, "Young master, how did you know there was a spiritual medicine here?"

"Intuition!" Jiang Yuan's thoughts wandered outside the sky as he casually replied.

After a moment, he came back to his senses and looked at the spiritual plant in front of him.

Old Ma became a little anxious and said, "Young master, don't just stand there! Swallow and refine this spiritual plant quickly. It will greatly enhance your strength!"

Jiang Yuan shook his head. "No rush!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and reached out to pluck a leaf from the spiritual medicine, then put it in his mouth.

Old Ma nervously watched Jiang Yuan.

After a few breaths, seeing that Jiang Yuan's expression hadn't changed, he couldn't help but ask, "Young master, how is it? Do you feel anything?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head and closed his eyes.

Then his lips moved slightly, gently biting the surface of the leaf.

In an instant, a cool liquid surged out.

It spread along his tongue and into his body, making his body feel as if it had encountered a long-awaited rain after a drought.

His cells were filled with joy and excitement.

Feeling the various changes in his body, Jiang Yuan was amazed.

It seemed that his body had been in a state of deficiency recently.

With the power generated by this leaf, he finally noticed the changes in his body.

Thinking about it, he found it quite reasonable.

The strength of his physical body had been increasing rapidly every day, thanks to the progress of his marrow refinement. However, everything in the world followed the law of conservation, and energy couldn't be created out of thin air.

The fact that his physical body had become stronger was due to the daily depletion without any replenishment, so it was normal to have a deficiency.

Fortunately, he noticed it early. If this continued for a little longer, it might even damage the foundation of his body.

Thinking of this, he felt extremely fortunate.

Then he swallowed the leaf completely and opened his eyes.

In his abdomen, the leaf instantly turned into a pure energy, which was absorbed and refined by his body in an instant.

But this energy was like a drop in the bucket.

It couldn't completely make up for the deficiency in his body, but instead fully activated his dormant physical body.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan could clearly feel the hungry signals coming from inside his body.

Old Ma saw Jiang Yuan come back to his senses and quickly asked, "Young master, how is it? Is it not poisonous?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head. "It's not poisonous. It's a genuine spiritual plant."

"That's great!" Old Ma's eyes lit up. "Young master, quickly refine it. A complete spiritual plant is a great opportunity!"
