Chapter 121: Refinement Stage
121- Refinement Stage
As I said, even a mortal human who has never cultivated can defeat an Awakening stage human or a Beginning stage human if he/she has practiced some fighting techniques.
But the difference starts showing after stepping into the Refinement stage.
The Refinement stage is divided into 5 levels. And they are:
Skin Refinement Level
Muscle Refinement Level
Tissue Refinement Level
Organs Refinement Level
Bone Refinement Level
And as one reaches Skin Refinement Level, ordinary punches or kicks can hardly hurt him/her and even the weapons used must be sharp and must be used by some cultivator. An ordinary mortal will never be able to inflict any lethal injury on a cultivator who has reached the Skin Refinement Level.
In the Skin Refinement Level, there is only a little increase in power but the major increase is in defense.
Now, before I proceed, I need to check for the information that has been unlocked in the Brown book after I have reached the peak of the Beginning stage.
So, after I met Armelia, we did the blood ceremony, and then,
Sha...
Once again, the book started shining, and then it got back to normal. And again, this time brown color faded a bit and the color of the book became lighter.
I guess that as we continue unlocking more information about the brown book, the brown color of the book will continue fading and become lighter.
So, I guess when the color of the book turns completely from brown to white, then I can conclude that we have completely unraveled the mysteries of the book and the old man, who left this book inside the statue.
Then I started reading new information that was related to the Refinement Stage.
.
Hey, the person who is reading this, now that you have reached the peak of the Beginning stage and are ready to step into the Refinement stage.
So, I guess I must congratulate you.
Now, getting back to the topic to be discussed.
In the Refinement stage, cultivators need to strengthen or forge or refine or whatever you want to call it; their Skin, Muscles, Tissues, Organs, and Bones. And doing so, they become extraordinarily good and lots of impurities are also removed.
Or like the saying-
One must bend and stretch if the situation demands.
For example, in the novels, while MC is sitting in a restaurant and having food. He is sitting alone at the table. Some people with huge backgrounds enter the restaurant but it is packed with people and no tables are empty. And someone from the group spots the table where the MC is sitting. They ask or order him to give up the table.
Now, like all the novels, the MC argues with them and they fight. And that leads to lots of drama, chasing, fighting, killing, etc.
Now, if the MC had silently given up the table, would he lose anything other than his pride?
No.
Nothing would have happened if the MC had swallowed his pride for such a small incident.
But I won't blame him.
Even I felt that fighting them was a reasonable choice.
But after some incidents, I realized that it was a stupid incident.
.
If I was in the MCs place, I would have given up the table as I would hardly have any knowledge about their background.
But of course, there would be a limit to it. If they really think that I am a pushover, then they are so wronggg.
But I will bear all the things that will happen until I gather all the information about them, after that, I will proceed with some revenge and clan extermination.
Why clan extermination?
Am I being cruel?
