Chapter 527 - 501: Cultivating Gang Power

Chapter 527: Chapter 501: Cultivating Gang Power

Dean Liu sighed.

"However, now that you’ve surpassed Li Tianxing and Sun Saint, they probably won’t take it lying down."

Lin Qi smiled and said, "They’ll come to accept it."

Dean Liu laughed. "Good. That’s the kind of confidence a genius should have."

「Fifteen minutes later.」

After packing his bags, Lin Qi and Dean Liu arrived at a deserted airfield.

Director Fu, dressed in a gray robe, came to see them off. He waved and smiled.

"Lin Qi, I’m sure it won’t be long before we see you on the battlefield on TV!"

"Train hard! All of us in the Xia Country are counting on you!"

Lin Qi nodded. Once the cabin door was completely shut, he set down his luggage and leaned back in the smart seat.

WHIRRR!!

The all-red Sparrowhawk Fighter shuddered slightly, then slowly ascended, flying toward the Celestial Vault Institute and shuttling through the clouds.

Lin Qi gazed through the window at the cylindrical black building. He had been at the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar for less than a month, and now he was leaving again.

His biggest gain this time was learning the top-level technique—the Golden Emperor’s Secret Manual.

Now, all the way to the Peak of the Eighth Realm, he wouldn’t have to worry about finding a new Cultivation Method.

He could just follow the steps, and he would naturally become an Eighth Realm Martial Artist.

This made him think of Li Tianxing and Sun Saint again. His next goal was to surpass those two top-tier geniuses.

Dean Liu chose a seat opposite him, poured a glass of water, and said,

"Lin Qi, when do you plan to head to the battlefield?"

Lin Qi took the water and replied,

"I plan to cultivate Gang Power using the High-Level Source Energy Technique before I set foot on the battlefield."

Dean Liu nodded. "With your Talent, once you cultivate Gang Power, you’ll be considered powerful even among Seventh Realm Martial Artists."

"When that time comes, we’ll go to the battlefield together!"

Lin Qi’s expression brightened. "Dean Liu, are you preparing to break through to the Eighth Realm?"

Dean Liu nodded. "Thanks to you, I now have a hope of breaking through as well."

A smile immediately spread across Lin Qi’s face upon hearing this.

...

「Celestial Vault Institute. Classes had just ended.」

VRRROOOM!!

A large number of students were riding their electric cars back to the Star Residence.

BOOM!!

A Sparrowhawk Fighter streaked across everyone’s vision, leaving a white trail in its wake.

At the Celestial Vault Institute, such a sight was commonplace.

But this fighter jet was different.

"Jiangtao, that jet is landing in front of Villa 9!"

"Isn’t that Brother Qi’s villa?" someone asked in confusion.

Seeing this, Jiangtao furrowed his brow and said,

"Let’s go take a look!"

So, a large group of people swarmed over to the entrance of Villa 9, arriving just in time to see the fighter jet land.

The cabin door opened, and Lin Qi’s figure emerged.

He was as tall and handsome as ever, dressed in a black and gold robe, his aura profound.

After not seeing him for a month, everyone felt a subtle change in Lin Qi’s presence.

"Brother Qi!"

Jiangtao immediately called out with a smile.

"Brother Lin Qi!"

Jiang Miaoyin also called out quickly, hurrying forward.

Everyone got out of their cars and gathered around.

Lin Qi looked at the crowd gathering around him and greeted them with a smile.

"Taozi, Amiao!"

"And everyone else, it’s been a while!"

Jiangtao asked curiously, "Brother Qi, you’re back so soon?"

"Senior Sister Xu Qin said that cultivating a High-Level Source Energy Technique takes several months, doesn’t it?"

"Did something happen?"

Lin Qi laughed at the question.

"I finished cultivating, so of course I came back!"

Dean Liu, who was standing nearby, added, "Lin Qi has completed his Cultivation at the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar."

Everyone was shocked to hear this. Wan Ming said in amazement, "As expected of Brother Qi!"

The crowd was stunned once again. They clearly remembered hearing Xu Qin say that it had taken her three months to complete it.

But for Lin Qi, it took less than a month.

Meanwhile, Shen Heng, who was also an SSS-level genius, hadn’t been heard from yet.

That meant he hadn’t finished his Cultivation.

The comparison made Lin Qi’s Talent seem even more outrageous.

They were all SSS-level geniuses, but Lin Qi had left them far behind.

Seeing their shocked expressions, Dean Liu thought to himself, ’If they truly understood what the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Pillar entailed, they’d be even more astonished.’

...

「Half an hour later, the crowd had dispersed.」

In the spacious living room, Lin Qi was having lunch with the Jiangtao siblings.

Jiangtao shook his head. "Brother Qi, you’re getting more and more ridiculous!"

"The pressure on me is immense!"

Lin Qi put a slice of meat from a Seventh-Level Calamity Beast into his mouth and said slowly,

"It’s normal to feel pressure. Haven’t you noticed everyone else has already given up on catching me?"

Jiangtao nodded. The others, including Chu Yu, had long since lost the will to chase after Lin Qi.

When the gap is small, it fosters competition.

But when the gap is too large, you’re on two different levels.

All they can do is gaze up at his back from a distance.

Jiangtao himself didn’t want to compete with Lin Qi, he just wanted to work hard to keep up with his pace.

After the meal, Jiangtao and Jiang Miaoyin left.

They needed to go train hard.

As for Lin Qi, who had just eaten over a hundred kilograms of Calamity Beast flesh and blood, he went to the Martial Arts Room.

Feeling a pleasant warmth spreading through his body as it rapidly digested the essence from the flesh and blood, he sat down cross-legged.

He closed his eyes and began to browse the Golden Emperor’s Secret Manual in his Consciousness Space.

He had now comprehended the High-Level Source Energy Technique.

The next step was to condense his own unique Gang Power.

As he flipped through the technique, a vast amount of information flooded his mind.

The seventh part, the Blood Exchange Chapter, not only described how to practice the Cultivation, but also explained how to condense Gang Power.

’Gang Power is a type of Advanced Power!’

’When the human body exerts force, it condenses into Power, which flows through the body like a current of water, capable of inflicting great damage.’

’The fusion of immense Power and Source Energy, using Source Energy as a medium, can leave the body and harm opponents at a distance.’

’Forming a beam of Power is achieved through high compression, compressing immense Power to unleash even greater destruction.’

’Gang Power, on the other hand, is a transformation. It is the evolution of Power, a fundamental change in its very nature. The destructive capability of a wisp of Power and a wisp of Gang Power are worlds apart.’

’It is like the fundamental difference between an ordinary tree branch and a piece of steel!’

Thinking about this, Lin Qi marveled internally at the vast difference a fundamental transformation of power could make.

He continued to browse, and more information surfaced, faster than simply flipping through a book.

He even had Little Chan project a panel to help him interpret and record some of it.

’Some geniuses of our Human Race develop powerful Talents as they grow older.’

’They may possess various Talents due to their bloodline, Genetic Awakening, or other reasons.’

’One such type of Talent is the control over Natural Powers: Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Ice... ’

’Compressing Power to its absolute limit, fusing it with Source Energy to form a special power, will result in a qualitative change.’

’Then, by integrating a Natural Power, you will complete the final step and condense Gang Power!’

’The entire condensation process is not easy. It requires immense Spiritual Power for the compression, and not a single mistake can be made.’

’At the same time, one must also have superior control over the Natural Power... ’

Lin Qi finished browsing, opened his eyes, and began to take notes.
