Chapter 23: The Powerful Effects of the Nine Dragon Beast Medicine.
Robert opened the briefcase, inside which were several syringes and a package of unopened syringes.
As he unpacked and installed the syringe, he explained, "Bai, Oxygen Dragon is the mildest medicine among the nine dragons."
"It can gradually reduce body fat, tighten muscle lines, and slightly improve endurance."
"The side effect is endocrine imbalance, which may lead to symptoms such as insomnia and acne."
"Normally, oxydral is taken orally. However, for better results, I opted for injection."
As they were talking.
Robert also took out the first vial of medicine. "Bai, I'll ask you one more time, are you sure you've thought this through? Once this treasure is used, there's no turning back."
"Come on!" Bai Chen didn't say much, he just stretched out his arm.
呲!
A syringe of oxydralone was injected into the bloodstream.
"Bai, start doing cardio now. The effects of the medicine will flow through your blood vessels and throughout your body."
Robert instructed, "You can start heavy weight training in ten minutes."
"Thank you, Coach Robert, I understand."
Bai Chen nodded.
Looking around, the few treadmills in the gym were all occupied.
Coupled with the smelly environment inside the gym, he decided to go for a brisk walk in the park outside as a form of cardio.
...
Bai Chen, carrying a submachine gun, arrived at the park near the gym and walked briskly for about ten minutes.
A strange sensation surged through his body; he felt his entire body was burning up.
According to Robert, this is because the body is frantically secreting androgen receptors, increasing the body's nitrogen retention rate, accelerating the synthesis of skeletal muscle cell proteins, and at the same time blocking the accumulation of subcutaneous superficial fat, preventing water retention and edema.
"That's about it."
Bai Chen took a deep breath, put the submachine gun hanging on his chest aside, and assumed the dynamic stance of the "Nourishing Body Stance Exercise" in the flesh-training stage.
drink!
After a low shout, Bai Chen's body sank slightly, and he slowly pushed forward with his arms outstretched as if embracing the full moon.
A moment later, he changed his posture, switching to the second stance—
He bends over, hands on the ground, back arches backward like a bow, then curls up again, like a coiled snake.
...
Complete the three-step routine.
Bai Chen could clearly feel that the fat stored in his body was rapidly turning into muscle.
These muscles are then rapidly consumed and refined, transforming into even stronger and more powerful thinner muscles.
"That's awesome!"
Bai Chen's eyes were bright, and his expression was somewhat excited.
Compared to ordinary training in another world, this method, with the addition of technology, has increased efficiency by at least two times.
It should be noted that the oxygen-containing dragon currently being used is the weakest among the nine dragons.
If it were one of those even more powerful dragon medicines, it probably wouldn't be long before I could complete the Flesh Refining Realm cultivation.
but.
Bai Chen quickly realized something was wrong.
As a martial artist, he has a much deeper understanding of his own body than the average person.
He could clearly feel that while his body was becoming stronger, his endocrine system was also becoming slightly disordered.
"It's just a minor side effect; it won't kill you anytime soon anyway."
Bai Chen didn't care at all.
After all, if he couldn't break through to the Innate Realm, he probably wouldn't even have time for the internal cholesterol to cause a backlash before his lungs completely fibrosed and he died.
...
that's it.
Bai Chen began his first day of training in the real world in the park.
Coach Robert visited once during that time, bringing some fitness supplements, including protein powder and beef jerky.
Robert expressed doubts about Bai Chen's martial arts movements, but the customer is always right, and since the customer wants to do it this way, he naturally has no reason to stop him.
What he had to do was provide Bai Chen with Kowloon Medicine, a steady supply of protein powder and beef jerky, and various supplements to replenish trace elements whenever Bai Chen needed them.
When it's over.
The sun was setting, and the afterglow painted the entire Fez neighborhood, a slum.
"Thank you for your hard work, Coach Robert!"
Before parting, Robert gave Bai Chen a week's supply of oxydral tonic and agreed to replace it with the more potent senna next week.
"Bai, see you next week, best of luck!"
Robert's smile was very genuine.
He really liked this kind of customer; not only was the customer generous, but the customer also didn't need his help with training, only the medicine.
This means that aside from the cost of the medicine, everything else is profit.
.....
on the way back.
Bai Chen made a point of taking a stroll around the neighborhood where he had been robbed.
Unfortunately, no trace of the black men who robbed him was found.
He wasn't in a hurry, since he just came to stroll around whenever he had free time, and given the personalities of those black guys, they would definitely show up.
...
The following days.
Bai Chen injects himself with oxygen every day, and then uses various supplements and protein powder to assist in his training in the Flesh Refining Realm.
With the help of technology, the cultivation progress is encouraging!
His muscles became increasingly sharp and defined.
It's not the kind of bulky, muscular build, but rather a transformation towards the thinner, more muscular physique similar to Bruce Lee's.
Things that were previously too heavy to lift can now be easily picked up.
"Phew~"
After Bai Chen finished another set of three dynamic stances, wisps of mist rose from his body.
This feeling of being able to clearly perceive progress in martial arts is just so exhilarating.
Just like a top student enjoys going to school because they can memorize humanities subjects at a glance and understand science subjects with a little thought.
"If I can maintain this pace of cultivation, I should be able to complete the Body Refining Realm in at most half a month."
Bai Chen rubbed his muscles and smiled.
This means that the possibility of breaking through to the Innate Realm has increased once again.
but.
Because of the large doses of continuous injections of oxyprogesterone, he felt that the effect of the veterinary drug had decreased somewhat.
He speculated that the body might have developed resistance to oxydextrin.
In order not to affect the progress of cultivation.
Bai Chen planned to have Robert prepare the next phase of the Nine Dragons Beast Medicine ahead of schedule.
If possible, prepare all the remaining Nine Dragon Beast Medicines at once to avoid running around and having to deal with them.
Anyway, he can control his body's absorption of the drug on his own, so he doesn't need a coach's help at all, as long as there is medicine available later.
The call connected...
Bai Chen immediately told his bodybuilding coach, Robert, about his plans.
At the beginning.
Robert refused, saying that doing so would violate the ethics of a bodybuilding coach, and advised Bai Chen not to be reckless, otherwise there would be big problems.
However, after Bai Chen offered to add another hundred dollars, Robert changed his mind and agreed.
Robert stated that he would ensure the quality of the medicine and prepare it in the shortest possible time.
...
After hanging up the phone.
Bai Chen practiced meditation and breathing exercises for a while longer.
It wasn't until dusk that he packed his bags (firearms) and left the rusty container where he lived.
He walked toward the restaurant where he used to work.
