Gao Wu: From Martial Arts Student to Star Emperor

Chapter 68 Soaking in a Medicated Bath

"Prepare a medicinal bath for me, and then open a gravity chamber."

Chen Lie said.

"Okay, what type of medicinal bath would you like?" asked the staff at the front desk on the third floor of the martial arts school.

Chen Lie stated directly: "The highest-grade medicinal bath!"

"A first-class medicinal bath costs 30,000 star coins. A double gravity chamber costs 2,000 star coins."

Upon hearing this, Chen Lie immediately took out his Free Star Card from his pocket and handed it to the receptionist.

"Senior, I can do it myself!"

When Yang Xixi saw that Chen Lie had already paid for the gravity chamber for her, she quickly stopped him.

Chen Lie replied, "It's just a small amount of money."

After swiping the Star Coin Card, Chen Jiu took the Star Coin Card from the staff member.

The staff member said, "These are the room cards for the gravity chamber and the medicinal bath room. The gravity chamber can be used at any time, but the medicinal solution in the medicinal bath room needs to be prepared for half an hour."

Chen Lie took the room key, nodded, and gave the gravity chamber room key to Yang Xixi.

"senior……"

Yang Xixi took the room key and wanted to transfer two thousand star coins to Chen Lie, but Chen Lie said directly, "I'll wait in the medicinal bath room. You should go to the gravity room to train too."

After saying that, Chen Lie went straight to the medicinal bath room without waiting for Yang Xixi's reply.

Upon arriving at the medicinal bath room, Chen Lie saw the martial arts school staff preparing the medicinal solution, so he waited.

With nothing to do, Chen Lie took out his communicator and found that the Green Bubble software had received a message, which he immediately opened.

Wei: "Mr. Chen Lie, I have gathered all the martial arts treasures you requested. I was planning to visit you in Dongchuan Province today. Do you have time today?"

Chen Lie replied, "Come on over. How long will it take you to get there?"

Chen Lie received a reply immediately after sending the message.

Wei: "If we leave now, it should take about two hours to get there."

Chen Lie: "Okay, I'm at the Changdong branch of Dongchuan Martial Arts School in Changdong City. When you arrive at the school, go directly to the third floor."

Wei: "Okay, Mr. Chen Lie, I'll arrive around 11 a.m.

Chen Lie did not reply to the message and instead put away his communicator.

After a while, the staff finished preparing the medicinal solution and then left the medicinal bath room.

Chen Lie walked to the wooden basin containing the medicinal liquid and touched the liquid in the basin with his hand.

"The medicine is quite effective. Combined with the Qi and Blood Circulation Method, it should be able to stabilize Qi and Blood."

Chen Lie immediately took off his clothes and jumped into the wooden basin full of medicinal liquid.

As soon as Chen Lie stepped into the wooden basin, his skin, which was soaking in the medicinal liquid, immediately felt a dull pain.

He knew it was because of the irritating sensation from the first contact with the medicine.

Chen Lie closed his eyes and concentrated, trying his best to control the flow of qi and blood in his body, and began to circulate the qi and blood circulation method in the "Basic Body Tempering Technique".

Bubbling began to rise continuously from the surface of the medicinal liquid, and the gurgling sound of ordinary water being boiled could be heard incessantly.

At this moment, the dull pain on Chen Lie's skin where the medicine had come into contact with it turned into severe pain.

Under the influence of the medicinal liquid, Chen Lie's unstable qi and blood began to stabilize and become increasingly robust.

Unbeknownst to him, Chen Lie had been soaking in the medicinal bath in the wooden tub for an hour.

The amount of medicine in the wooden basin had visibly decreased; the water level in the basin, which was originally full of medicine, had dropped by four or five fingers compared to when it first started.

Not only that, the originally milky white and thick liquid had become somewhat clear, as if it had been diluted with three or four buckets of water.

After a long while, Chen Lie stopped circulating his qi and blood and opened his eyes.

"No, the medicinal potency of the solution is almost exhausted. Soaking it any longer won't have any effect."

As Chen Lie spoke, he jumped out of the wooden tub.

After showering in the shower area of ​​the medicinal bath, Chen Lie put on his clothes.

I glanced at the time and realized it was already past ten o'clock.

Stepping out of the medicinal bath room, Chen Lie saw that there were already quite a few people on the third floor of the martial arts hall, and many martial arts students were practicing martial arts in the training ground in the middle.

Chen Lie found a chair in the rest area and sat down to rest.

The medicinal bath I just took was much more strenuous than simply boosting my blood and qi levels.

A medicinal bath cleanses the blood and qi, requiring the rapid circulation of blood and qi throughout the body to absorb the medicinal solution.

Chen Lie had done his best to maximize the effects of the medicinal bath. He may have recovered from his unstable blood and qi, but he certainly couldn't fully recover because the medicinal potency was too weak.

"The effectiveness of this kind of ordinary medicinal bath can only reach this level."

Chen Lie extended his mental energy to check the state of his Qi and blood. He found that he had indeed gotten rid of the unstable state of Qi and blood, but the condition of Qi and blood was still not optimistic.

"However... if we have those martial arts treasures, we can try to cultivate the martial arts secret technique in the Central Galaxy Empire's Martial Arts Training Academy that targets the Qi and Blood stage."

The Star Soul Tempering Vine was a completely unexpected surprise for Chen Lie.

For Chen Lie, a rare spiritual treasure could be used to condense spiritual power, and its effect on enhancing spiritual power would definitely exceed that of two catties of Spirit-Nourishing Flower.

However, while spiritual power is a rare and precious resource, what he needs most right now is the cultivation of martial arts.

After resting for a while, Chen Lie gradually caught his breath. He took out his communicator and waited for Shen Miaowei's message.

It was now 11 a.m.

Chen Lie's communicator suddenly rang with a notification sound.

Wei: "Mr. Chen Lie, I've arrived outside the Changdong City branch of Dongchuan Martial Arts School. Are you still on the third floor of the school?"

Chen Lie replied, "Yes, it's in the third-floor rest area. Just come up."

Wei: "Okay, I'll be right there!"

Chen Lie put the communicator in his pocket and then waited.

A short while later, a stunningly beautiful and elegant young woman walked in from the entrance on the third floor of the martial arts hall.

The stunningly beautiful girl attracted a lot of attention as soon as she appeared.

The girl gazed ahead, her eyes wandering, until finally, her gaze settled, and she found what she was looking for.

So she immediately walked toward where her gaze was directed.

"Hello, Mr. Chen Lie!"

Chen Lie looked up and saw Shen Miaowei standing next to him with a smile. He gave her a look and pointed to the seat opposite him.

"Please sit down!"

Shen Miaowei nodded gently and sat down.

"Mr. Chen Lie, my sister offended me last time, I am really sorry."

She is only sixteen years old this year, and has been spoiled by her parents since she was a child. She is used to being lawless and arrogant to everyone.

I've already reprimanded her, and I hope you won't hold it against her.

As soon as Shen Miaowei sat down, she began to explain to Chen Lie.

Chen Lie said, "Leaving her aside, I want to ask, which of the martial arts treasures I listed did you find?"

Shen Miaowei said, "There are seven rare martial arts treasures: Nine-Leaf Dragon Fungus, Extreme Yang Blood Lotus, Dragon's Prolongation Fruit, Hundred Beast Spirit Bone, Snake Scale Flower, Starwood, Blood Essence Sprout."

The other three items are so rare that it would be extremely difficult to gather them all in a short period of time.
