Chapter 716: Chapter 630: A Promising Future, Reckoning (Combined Chapter)
The human body is like the universe, and the acupoints within it are akin to the most crucial stars, containing unimaginable vast energy.
The Candle Dragon Acupoint, after fully deifying, emitted a brilliant light that shone through the body, dazzling and radiant.
At that moment, a massive amount of pure Gang Qi rebounded from the Candle Dragon Acupoint.
It baptized Lou Yi’s physique at an unimaginable speed, pushing his bones, tendons, and muscles toward further strength and breakthrough.
’Condense and refine the acupoints with Gang Qi, and after the acupoints are deified, they can nourish the body in return.’
Lou Yi felt that his physical form had been enhanced in all aspects.
His strength broke through tens of thousands of pounds once again, increasing by another one to two million pounds, and his basic speed surged from eight times the speed of sound to nine times.
His external body’s raw defense, without any added talents, also saw a considerable boost. Lou Yi estimated he could withstand Upper Grade and even Top-grade Spiritual Artifacts without breaking.
Of course, the most significant change was in Lou Yi’s total Gang Qi.
After the deification of the Candle Dragon Acupoint, it equated to transforming into his second Dantian.
The acupoint was filled with pure, translucent red Gang Qi, at two to three times the amount of the original Dantian.
Gang Qi is Lou Yi’s foundational essence.
Whether it’s offensive martial arts like Surging Tides, Body into Sword, or Sky Splitting Claw, or defensive techniques like Glazed Gang Attire, their power is directly proportional to the total amount of Gang Qi.
’Before deifying these acupoints, I had already integrated numerous talents, my strength akin to the Third Level of the Spirit Platform.’
’Now having deified one acupoint, my Gang Qi has increased several times over.
At present, dealing with cultivators at the Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform or demons with Fourth Bloodline Transformation shouldn’t be an issue.’
’Moreover, more importantly, I now see the hope of reaching the Golden Core level within eight years.
The future is promising, the future is promising!’
Lou Yi’s eyes sparkled, filled with boundless joy.
With diverse talents, he could transform what others feared as heavenly thunder into resources for his breakthrough.
At this moment, heavenly thunder appeared not as punishment but as a vast pool of pure energy to him.
Unable to resist, Lou Yi launched his mocking talent toward the skies again.
Unfortunately, he had already drained the heavens; no thunder would fall in the short term.
According to his estimation, there should be another cooldown period of three to four months.
Previously, he felt the cooldown period was too short, but now it seemed too long.
’Three to four months later, if I deify another acupoint, my strength would surely ascend once again.
Who knows, maybe I’ll even be able to fight with an ordinary Trench Patrol Guest!’
Lou Yi turned to leave the scene.
He thought for a moment, then waved his hand, releasing a surge of Gang Qi to crush the bodies of these demons into powder, leaving no trace.
By now, Lin Xuan, Ding Shiniang, and others should have gone to other Su Districts; I should go find them and meet up.
Not long after Lou Yi returned, he paused.
Several figures were flying rapidly toward him.
Seeing Lou Yi, each of them showed a look of surprise and delight.
“Liu Shu!”
“Little Shu, it’s so good to see you’re alright!”
It was Lin Xuan’s team, including Lin Xuan, Elder Gui, Ding Shiniang, Qin Dong, and He Shu Li.
“Weren’t you supposed to go to the Jiaoxu District first?” Lou Yi asked.
“The leader was worried about you, so we came together to have a look…” Elder Gui explained with a smile.
Next to him, the boy Lin Xuan, with pigtails, seemed unusually bashful: “I thought we couldn’t leave you to face the danger alone.”
Hearing this, Lou Yi felt warmth in his heart.
He dared to act like this because he had a trump card, with great chances of success.
But the others, unaware of this, came over at considerable risk.
Joining this team was indeed the right choice.
“Where is Hao?” Ding Shiniang asked, her expression serious.
“Dead.”
“What?!”
The group was astonished to hear Lou Yi’s answer.
Lou Yi thought, if he were to tell them that not only was Hao dead, but the ram-headed monster was also dead, how would they react?
“Didn’t I say my friend is quite powerful,” Lou Yi said, “We were in the open while he was in the shadows. With calculated moves, how could there be any chance of survival?”
“Finally, that evil beast is dead!” Lin Xuan clapped happily, jumping up and down.
“Hao, being a Trench Patrol Guest, didn’t care about maintaining fairness, always indulging in corruption, suppressing dissent. He deserved to die!” Ding Shiniang said through gritted teeth, her eyes full of satisfaction.
Previously, when she was about to break through to the Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform, she was abruptly interrupted by Hao, leaving her severely injured.
It had pushed her breakthrough back by several years, a grudge of life and death.
“Little Shu, where is your friend? We must thank him properly.” Ding Shiniang approached, bringing a fragrant breeze.
Incidentally, she hooked her arm around Lou Yi’s, leaning closely against that soft expanse, her tone filled with flirtation.
’This woman is being coquettish again.’ Lou Yi, speechless, discreetly withdrew his arm and said, “My friend is always elusive like a dragon and has already left.”
“Oh, that’s a shame.” Ding Shiniang licked her full lips with some reluctance.
“Now that Hao is dead, do we still need to leave the Shisu District?” He Shu Li suddenly posed this question.
“Absolutely,” Elder Gui said solemnly, “With the death of a Trench Patrol Guest, this matter could be significant, possibly drawing the attention of the Immortal Dao Alliance.
If we remain here, we might encounter incalculable dangers.”
Lou Yi also nodded, then added with a smile, “However, before we leave, some causes and effects need to be resolved first.”
