Ling Chen rested until dusk. he was feeling better but could feel that due to excessive loss of blood his vitality was somewhat damaged. he thought of using the Vitality grass but without cultivation, he won't be able to refine it completely and its effectiveness would be greatly reduced.

Ling Chen took his 5.03 gold and went to buy body tempering pills. these pills help body tempering realm martial artists to accumulate and refine Qi at a faster speed. if one cultivator cultivates using these pills and another doesn't, in case their talent is similar, the former will cultivate almost at double speed compared to the latter. 

He again went to the Newmoon trading firm and asked " shopkeeper, what is the price of a Body tempering pill? "

" 20 silver per pill," he replied.

' It's quite expensive but I got no choice but to buy them if I want to cultivate faster' Ling Chen thought. " shopkeeper give me 20 pills."

Taking pills and storing them in his bag, he felt slightly relieved. then he had some ferocious beast's meat soup, spending another 30 silver on it. now he only had a total of 73 silver remaining.

He returned home, took a bath and went to his courtyard. he sat crossed legged. At night time there is more Star Qi present compared to daytime. after meditating for half an hour and making sure his mind and body were in their current top condition, he threw a body tempering pill in his mouth and started cultivating using " Primordial star god's steller art ". after 4 hours he felt his cultivation improve slightly, then he threw another pill and continued. when dawn arrived he broke through to the 1st layer of the body tempering realm after a night's cultivation and using 4 of his pills.

Ling Chen's talent was already quite extraordinary and while using Body tempering pills his speed doubled. he opened his eyes and smiled.

"Finally I've recovered to 1st layer using steller cultivation. I can feel the difference now, steller cultivation is more powerful than yuan cultivation."

"Let's continue." he ate another pill and closed his eyes. body tempering pills are mainly used to increase cultivation speed but they can also be used as a replacement for food, but normally only wealthy people use these pills in place of food because, at the price of a single pill, a family of 5 can feed itself for at least 2 days. but now Ling Chen has already spent most of his money, he doesn't plan on stopping his cultivation until his pill stock is emptied. in his estimate, he should reach the 4th layer of the body tempering realm after using all his pills in a few days.

....

After 3 days of continuous cultivation, he finally reached the 4th layer. he got up, stretched his body and gauged his current strength.

"I feel strength bubbling in my veins. I need to  check exactly how powerful I'm, now that my cultivation has reached 4th layer body tempering." Ling Chen felt that he can give that wild boar a proper fight now.

" Yeah right, I should go in cloud view mountain and see if I'm able to beat the crap out of that boar." 

he clenched his fists. previously he wasn't able to land a single blow on the boar and could only flee from it. now he wanted to test just how much strength that tigertoothed boar Let's refine the Vitality grass first. I should be able to make up for the loss of vitality with it." 

As one's cultivation grew stronger his vitality will also strengthen with it that's why people with strong cultivation can live for hundreds to thousands of years.

In just two hours, he completely refined the Vitality grass, he could feel its benefits clearly. ' it is a miracle medicine, every negative effect of destroying my cultivation has vanished without a trace.' Now he was in his best condition ever.

But first, he went to see Feng Jiayi and told her that he was going to train in the mountain the s, so he won't be able to see her for some days. Then he headed towards cloud view mountain.

...

After running for half an hour he reached the foot of a cloud view mountain. 

"My speed has increased a lot. I only took half the time I used to take." 

He took a deep breath, he was not only faster than before his stamina has also increased by quite a bit. even after running at his full speed for half an hour he still wasn't out of breath.

He ran straight into the mountain, he didn't avoid any wild beast but just outran them. while it was true that in the outer area of the mountain there weren't any powerful beasts but they were still comparable to body tempering realm cultivators.

In this 'Blue Star Planet' cultivation realms of beasts were divided into Wild beasts, Ferocious beasts, and Magical beasts which were further divided into low grade, mid-grade high grade. more powerful beasts than magical beasts were also divided into different realms.

Wild beasts were comparable to Body tempering realm martial artists, Ferocious beasts were comparable to Houtian realm martial artists and magical beasts were comparable to Xiantian realm martial artists.

A low-grade wild beast can fight up to 3rd layer body tempering realm martial artist, mid-grade up to 6th layer and high grade up to 9th layer body tempering realm martial artists.
