Chapter 0118: Vajra Mastery

Although the iron man was menacing, Qin Yun remained calm.

The iron man's speed wasn't particularly fast, but Qin Yun didn't underestimate him for that reason.

"As long as I can hold out for an hour, right?" Qin Yun chose to dodge, stepping with the Fire Cloud Steps and quickly retreating to the corner of the stone chamber.

Unexpectedly, the iron man's massive head suddenly detached from its body, carrying a powerful internal force, shooting towards him like a beam of light.

Qin Yun immediately dodged, thinking he could easily avoid it, but to his surprise, the iron head could turn and continued to charge at him.

"Truly bizarre!" He cursed inwardly, knowing that dodging was useless, so he struck out with his palm using the Qi Blast Technique, sending the iron head flying.

The iron head crashed into the wall, fell to the ground, and then abruptly flew back up, continuing its assault as before.

Qin Yun finally understood the iron man's prowess and why it was so difficult to deal with.

The iron man itself was made of high-grade spirit iron, making it incredibly hard.

Even with the internal strength of the sixth level of martial physique, attacking it barehanded was virtually impossible to cause any damage.

As he prepared to meet the flying iron head, the headless iron man suddenly moved, one of its arms detaching and charging with formidable internal force.

To make matters worse, the iron man itself also flew towards him!

Qin Yun swung both fists, delivering two powerful punches using the Qi Blast Technique, knocking the iron head and arm away, then swiftly dodged the charging iron man!

*Boom!*

The iron man charged forward and delivered a terrifying punch!

The internal force rippled out like a violent gale; if hit, one would only be able to crawl away!

"Holding out for an hour is indeed very challenging!" Qin Yun gritted his teeth, knowing he was in for a tough battle.

Though difficult, he felt a strange excitement within him.

The iron man's strength was formidable, perfect for honing his combat experience—a form of cultivation.

"Iron lump, come on! I'm not afraid of you!" Qin Yun motivated himself, swinging his fists to strike the flying iron head and arm again, engaging in a relentless dance with the iron man.

...

Three hours later, Qin Yun emerged from the cave, his face bruised and swollen. With the aid of numerous Rune Pattern Equipment, he managed to last three hours. He also received a voucher worth 300,000 Xuan Points.

Xie Wufeng and the others had recovered from their injuries and were waiting outside the cave. Seeing Qin Yun emerge, they all smiled.

"I asked the Dean earlier; we can enter other caves too. However, none of them could defeat the iron man, so they had to go out and hunt evil beasts to earn Xuan Points," Murong Daren patted Qin Yun's shoulder.

"I'm going in!" Huo Zhong said, striding into Cave No. 8.

Subsequently, Xie Wufeng and Murong Daren entered other caves.

Qin Yun returned to rest and recharge the energy of his Rune Pattern Equipment.

If this continued, the four of them wouldn't need long to accumulate three million points.

A day later, the four of them were in the living room of their house, replenishing the energy of their Rune Pattern Equipment together.

With the assistance of the Rune Pattern Equipment, they could all last three to four hours against the iron man.

"In just a few days, we've accumulated two million Xuan Points. We'll reach three million tomorrow! It's all thanks to Brother Yun's Rune Pattern Equipment. Now I understand why Runes Masters enjoy such high status!" Murong Daren sighed.

Xie Wufeng added, "If we can all cultivate the Vajra Internal Force, our team will find it much easier to enter the Star Profound Martial Academy. The entrance examination for the Xuan-level Martial Academy will begin in about three months."

They all knew Qin Yun had to attend the engagement ceremony. If he could break through his cultivation before then, he would have more confidence.

Qin Yun smiled, "Let's work together to become martial powerhouses!"

They rested at night and challenged the iron man in the caves early the next morning.

Lasting three to four hours inside was enough. By the end of the day, the four of them could collectively earn over a hundred thousand Xuan Points!

A few days later!

Students who had been out hunting evil beasts returned and soon learned that Qin Yun and his group had accumulated three million Xuan Points. They were all stunned!

What shocked them even more was that Qin Yun and his group could last at least three hours inside the caves—something they found unbelievable!

Outside the Dean's residence, students and teachers gathered.

"Dean, Xie Wufeng and the others used a large number of Rune Pattern Equipment to last so long against the iron man. That's unfair!" A teacher from the Heavenly Profound Martial Academy spoke up.

The Dean opened the door, his face cold. "What's unfair? You can use them too! This rule was established after consulting with you teachers. Changing it now would be unacceptable!"

They wanted to use them too, but they couldn't afford them!

While Rune Pattern Equipment wasn't as difficult to obtain as storage spirit artifacts, they were still expensive, even for teachers.

Seeing the Dean's displeased expression, the students and teachers dared not say more and dispersed.

Teachers from the Blue Spirit Star Palace hurriedly sent someone to report this matter to the Blue Spirit Star Palace.

Otherwise, Qin Yun and his group would continue to earn more Xuan Points and exchange them for vast resources.

Xie Wufeng and the others learned of this incident but, seeing that the Dean did not change the rules, continued to challenge the iron man with peace of mind.

A few days later, the Blue Spirit Star Palace indeed sent people over to remove the iron man.

The rules can't be changed, but they can withdraw the iron man, which shows how seriously the Blue Spirit Star Palace takes this matter.

Xie Wufeng and the others also learned about this, but fortunately, they had already accumulated enough Xuan points to exchange for the required spirit pills.

Even if the iron man is withdrawn, it won't affect them much; they'll just lose a quick way to earn Xuan points.

They took their vouchers for many Xuan points to Old Xu and exchanged them for one Golden Vein Spirit Pill and three Golden Yuan Spirit Pills.

"The next step is a big improvement for all of us!" Xie Wufeng smiled. Although he had used all the Xuan points to get things for Qin Yun, he didn't mind at all because he would receive a set of light-pattern equipment, which was also a significant gain.

"We're going to cultivate the Adamantine Inner Essence, hehe. I really hope the final assessment comes soon so we can enter the Xuan-level Martial Academy sooner!" Murong Daren chuckled. "There must be many skilled beauties inside. If I can conquer three or four, I'll be more than satisfied."

Qin Yun smiled and said, "I'm going back to my room to cultivate. I need to catch up with you guys quickly!"

He received one Golden Vein Spirit Pill and one Golden Yuan Spirit Pill, which would allow him to refine the three Adamantine Meridians and the Adamantine Inner Essence in one go.

Over the next few days, Qin Yun, Huo Zhong, and Murong Daren were all in their rooms refining the spirit pills.

Although Qin Yun had to refine two pills, he was the fastest to complete the process among the three, indicating his strong absorption ability.

Seeing Qin Yun come out, Xie Wufeng was surprised. "Little Brother Yun, you're really fast! How's your cultivation going?"

"Very smoothly. I successfully cultivated the Adamantine Inner Essence!" Qin Yun smiled slightly, releasing a burst of inner qi that was much stronger than before the Adamantine transformation.

He now possessed the Xuan Golden Adamantine Heart, which greatly aided in cultivating the martial body after reaching the Seventh Level of Martial Body.
