"But… they all failed."
"Even the federation's higher-ups were puzzled by this matter."
"However, whether it was from the mouths and mories of near-demigod Disaster Creatures they captured, or from records found in so relics, it was proven that this is the only path..."
"This is, for all of mankind, or rather, for all Creatures, the only verified path that can continue to be followed..."
"All Creatures walk along this path..."
Upon hearing Qing Ya's words, Fang Ze paused for a while and then silently nodded.
Since countless people had verified that this was the only correct path, he saw no need to doubt it any further, and decided to follow this path and give it a try.
After all, he was still far away from the Spirit Ascension stage, and if he found sothing amiss along the process, it would still be tily to turn back.
Now, his pressing concern was actually Bone Tempering!
Thinking of this, Fang Ze wasted no more ti and took the initiative to ask about how to start learning the thod of Bone Tempering.
Qing Ya didn't delay either. She gestured for Fang Ze to close the practice field's big door, and she herself picked up the small case at her feet, moving to the center of the field.
Fang Ze stood up, closed the practice field's big door, and locked it, then returned to the center of the field.
By this ti, Qing Ya had already opened the small case she had brought along today.
The case had four compartnts, each containing gold, silver, copper, and iron tal ingots.
Qing Ya showed them to Fang Ze and then said,
"Bone Tempering, Bone Tempering, ans to temper your bones to be as firm as gold and as solid as iron, as resilient as steel and as lustrous as silver!"
"But unlike muscles and tendons that can be directly tempered, and unlike the Skin mbrane that can be touched…"
"Therefore, to enhance the bones, what we need is Internal Refinent and to take the Iron Elent into our body, allowing our bones to gradually absorb the tal!"

"Becoming tougher and more ductile!"
"During this process, it might be extrely painful, but it's a necessary stage. So... you'll have to endure a bit."
"Also..."
As she spoke, she paused and her face turned slightly red, "During this ti, I might have so physical contact with you, don't misunderstand."
"Everything is for the sake of cultivation."
Fang Ze certainly had no misunderstandings.
He knew Qing Ya was a very upright ntor.
So he nodded.
Seeing Fang Ze nod, Qing Ya seed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Then she took out a white, balloon-like object from the inner layer of the case, blew into it gently, and threw it onto the ground.
Suddenly, an air mattress appeared on the ground.
Qing Ya pointed at the mattress and then said, "Lie down on it."
Fang Ze felt sohow that this scene seed familiar, as if he had seen it sowhere before.
He pondered over it while lying down on it.
Then he saw Qing Ya take out a black silk scarf from sowhere and tie it around her eyes.
Afterward, she said, "Take off your outer garnt."
Fang Ze: ??
Why... does this seem even more familiar now?
But... his ntor really was a person of particular ways.
While thinking this, he began to take off his outer garnt.
Then, he saw Qing Ya take out an iron ingot from the small case, and she approached him with steady steps.
Without any noticeable action from her, the iron ingot in her hand suddenly transford into scalding molten iron, and then as if the molten tal had no temperature in her palms, she dragged it along and then... sared it onto Fang Ze's... right hand.
"Ahhh!"
In that mont, Fang Ze felt an agonizing pain emanating from his right hand.
He wanted to pull away, but Qing Ya spoke sternly, "Concentrate! Endure! Feel the Power of Laws and gather the elents onto your bones!"
Hearing Qing Ya's words, Fang Ze quickly concentrated, sensing the condition of his right hand!
To his astonishnt, he had thought for sure that his hand would be scorched raw by the molten iron!
But... it wasn't.
Whether it was the oddity of the molten iron or the strength of his Skin Tempering stage was genuinely high, his hand at that mont was already bulging with seven layers of Skin mbrane, and on top of that, a thin film ford by the Power of Laws tightly blocked the scorching iron outside his body.
His palm was just like Qing Ya's, resembling a small bowl "holding" the searing molten tal.
And as he concentrated, he felt as though he could sense the abundant Iron Elent in his palm constantly emanating.
He focused intently, trying to control the Skin mbrane to open up a tiny slit, allowing those active tal elents to seep in bit by bit.
Passing through the Skin mbrane, penetrating the muscles, eventually reaching the bones of the hand, and slowly being absorbed…
Perhaps due to the sluggish absorption, Fang Ze did not feel any change in his hand bones.
Just then, Qing Ya's gentle voice rang in his ears once more, "Don't rush. Take it one step at a ti."
Qing Ya's voice seed to carry a magic power, and the sowhat irritable Fang Ze really seed to calm down.
He began to slowly open up, stretch, and absorb.
Soon, the iron in the palm of his hand seed to have been fully absorbed into his bones.
During this period, perhaps because of elental penetration, Fang Ze clearly felt that the Skin mbrane of his hand beca firr, and his muscles and tendons gained more resilience.
Even his hand bones, as seen through inner viewing, seed to be coated with a light tallic sheen.
It was then that Qing Ya's voice reached his ears again, "Get up. Watch my movents! Follow and do the sa!"
Amidst speaking, Qing Ya, drenched in sweat and undeterred by fatigue, stood up and then, with the scarf over her eyes, began to perform a set of precise boxing techniques.
With elegance and grace in her moves, she executed the form as if a light breeze, dispelling the heat of the molten iron...
With his Void Eye, Fang Ze had no trouble following her example, even if it was like drawing a gourd from mory.
