The stone ball in his hand felt cool and pleasant to the touch.
Other than that, there was nothing special about it – its appearance was dull, like a polished round stone.
“How do I use this thing?”
Just as Lu Ming asked this question, he suddenly felt a slight attraction force coming from the stone ball.
This attraction force was absorbing the mystery factors inside Lu Ming’s body!
After drawing out the mystery factors of three powerful Explosive Fists, a pure white light rose from the stone ball and enveloped Lu Ming’s head.
As a result, Lu Ming’s vision underwent a tremendous change in an instant!
He felt his consciousness drifting and soon arrived at a pure white space.
After Lu Ming stabilized himself, a voice sounded in his ear.
[Source Power Skill: Knight’s Body Forging Technique.]
[Teachable remaining times: Two times!]
[Demo, Begin now!]
Before Lu Ming could digest the information, he saw a Light Figure exactly like him appearing out of thin air in the colorful light, standing in front of him.
Soon, the Light Figure began to move.
Raising arms and legs.
Somewhat like the one-legged stance in martial arts.
Then, the Light Figure stopped moving…
After a brief thought, Lu Ming imitated the movements of the Light Figure.
After that, the Light Figure made its next move.
This completely clarified the method of how this light ball taught the Source Power Skill: Knight’s Body Forging Technique – following it step by step.
This set of movements was very long.
It took about half an hour for the movements to be completely finished, and Lu Ming completed them as well.
Afterward, the Light Figure reenacted the Knight’s Body Forging Technique.
To be honest, this unknown Source Power Skill was not easy.
The movements within half an hour were quite numerous, and many of them were quite awkward, requiring the mastery of the relevant breathing rhythms.
But perhaps due to the system’s influence, after only practicing it once, Lu Ming felt that he had already mastered all the key points of the Knight’s Body Forging Technique.
Opening the attribute panel, Lu Ming’s attributes appeared in his retina.
Name: Lu Ming

Knight’s Body Forging Technique (Entry) (1/100): A secret technique created by a certain knight to temper the body with mystery factors. This secret technique is simple, easy to learn, and can be used by humans and beasts! If one practices diligently, they can slowly increase their basic physical fitness!
[You have mastered the initial stage of the Knight’s Body Forging Technique. In the beginner stage of the Knight’s Body Forging Technique, every cycle can increase your all three attributes by 1 point and 1 free attribute point!]
Lu Ming’s eyes suddenly lit up!
This Source Power Skill was not like the Explosive Fist, which could only increase one’s attributes after leveling up. Instead, it was a continuous exercise that gradually added attributes.
To be honest, Source Power Skill like the Explosive Fist increased attributes rapidly, but as the level of Explosive Fist increased, the feedback would gradually weaken – just like the current Explosive Fist. It took Lu Ming several months of practice to raise the proficiency to the next level, during which there was no attribute feedback.
However, the Knight’s Body Forging Technique was different—it worked like this: exercise once and gain one attribute point! Once per half an hour.
How many attributes does it give?
Not many.
However, what surprised Lu Ming even more was yet to come!
Note: Detection shows that you have Tiger-Step Stance Lv20 (0/2000) and Resistance Stance Lv20 (0/2000). These two basic skills cannot increase the attribute acquisition and cultivation speed of the Knight’s Body Forging Technique. However, when you practice the Knight’s Body Forging Technique, the proficiency of these two basic skills will receive a large increase!
To put it bluntly, Lu Ming’s Knight Body Forging Technique could quickly upgrade Stance Mastery.
The Knight’s Body Forging Technique was linked to Stance Mastery, but the linkage was not very deep.
Other than that, there was another piece of information.
Note: Detected that you possess the basic skills: Fitness and the Source Power Skill: Basic Breathing Technique.
Your basic skill: Fitness, has been changed to basic skill: Cultivation.
The number of basic attribute points you can obtain daily through exercise has changed to: 10 points! (Originally, 0.5)
Cultivation LV31 (200/3,100): The daily limit of attribute points you can obtain increases by 31 points.
The attributes points that Lu Ming could obtain through exercise in a day had changed from 3.6 to 41!
This was the most significant change!
Perhaps the stone ball sensed that Lu Ming had already mastered the Knight’s Body Forging Technique.
That dazed feeling surfaced in Lu Ming’s mind once again.
Soon, Lu Ming woke up again.
The first thing he saw was Huo Sheng and the others.
“How long was I lost in thought?”
As soon as Lu Ming asked this, Huo Sheng said, “A little over two seconds.”
This made Lu Ming look at the stone ball in his hand, marveling at its power.
This thing was very impressive…
With this thought in mind, Lu Ming handed the stone ball to Huo Sheng.
“The Source Power Skill taught in the stone ball is called the Knight’s Body Forging Technique, and its effect is to gradually increase the basic physical fitness of the cultivator.”
Bai Tianyu and Duan Mei’s eyes lit up.
As everyone knew, the physical strength of an Awakened person doubled as he advanced.
However, other than Lu Ming, no one had seen other superpowers or anything else that could increase one’s basic attributes.
The appearance of this Knight’s Body Forging Technique fundamentally changed the way Awakened individuals obtained strength – to be honest, Bai Tianyu had long coveted Lu Ming’s ability to become stronger through exercise…
Who wouldn’t want to be as awesome as Brother Lu?
Perhaps sensing Bai Tianyu and Duan Mei’s expectant expressions, Lu Ming pondered for a moment and added, “Don’t get too excited. To be honest, the increase in physical qualities from this thing isn’t significant.”
For Lu Ming, one point in all attributes every half an hour, and 20 points in 10 hours.
It might seem like a lot, but one must remember that this was Lu Ming’s speed.
Regarding the Knight’s Body Forging Technique’s awkward postures, even if a normal person could complete a cycle properly, they would be exhausted. Practicing three or four times a day would be considered diligent and indomitable will.
However, Lu Ming was a top-level performer.
Bai Tianyu and Duan Mei exchanged glances and responded dryly, “A little progress every day adds up to a lot.
“Also, this thing can only be used twice.”
Unlike the Basic Breathing Technique, this stone ball has restrictions on teaching—it was not clear how many times it can be used, but Zhang Chengcheng used it once, Lu Ming used it once, and the Bear Mountain Ancestor must have practiced the Knight’s Body Forging Technique, so there are only two teaching opportunities left.
Huo Sheng said, “Can’t you or Chengcheng teach others?”
Lu Ming shook his head to indicate that he did not know, but there was a high chance that it would not work. While the movements can be taught, they have to consider individual differences. Besides, he couldn’t fully describe the varied breathing rhythms.
“Anyway, the two of you can use it first.”
Huo Sheng handed the stone ball to Bai Tianyu and Duan Mei. The two of them were the highest combat strength in Nanxiang gathering place, other than Lu Ming..
