Now I'm thinking about it, if you're following the corrupt path this isn't even a lie, you can be literally immortal, and have a infinite supply of Chi as a bonus.
In the Dragon Trial you can get the Blood-Fuel manual of you're corrupt, this manual basically transforms 1 point of Health into 1 Chi. The point is: The regeneration of the Flayed God Foundation transforms 1 Chi into 2 points of Health.
For example, I'm with 1 in health and 1 in Chi, then I use the Flayed God regeneration spending 1 Chi to get +2 Health, now my Health is 3 and my Chi is 0, however, I can trade 2 points of Health into Chi, now possessing 1 point in Health and 2 in Chi that I can trade for +4 points in Health resulting in 5 total points...subsequently.
The better part of this is that the Blood-Fuel trigger the AP gained per wound after each point of health transformed into Chi. Currently there are four techniques in the book increasing the AP gained per wound in +3, therefore in a build focused on that someone could gain +12 AP for each suffered wound. Keeping the example above, here I have 5 points in Health now and 0 Chi, and assuming I have a limit of 10 to each, I'll use the Blood-Fuel transforming 4 Health points into Chi triggering the AP gained per wound, resulting in +48 AP. Then I'll use the Flayed God regeneration again to get +8 Points of health from these 4 Chi, converting again into Chi using the Blood-Fuel, triggering the AP gained per Wound and gaining +96 AP...subsequently
