I Can Strengthen Everything

Chapter 164: Chapter 104: First in Celestial South, Breaking Realm Sprint

He mobilized the immense Essence Power, striking relentlessly.

Three days passed. On the bed, a ripple of power suddenly swept out from within Fang Xing’s body.

It vibrated the air.

The next moment, his eyes snapped open.

"True Qi Fifth Layer!"

Fang Xing’s face lit up with joy as he felt the breakthrough in his Cultivation.

Upon stepping into the True Qi Realm Fifth Layer, the True Qi in his body surged by more than tenfold.

His Longevity True Qi grew thicker and more potent, flooding his Dantian.

With the breakthrough to the Fifth Layer, his Longevity Technique had also advanced.

He had reached the peak of its second stage: Water and Fire Illusion.

His Life Potential was stimulated once more, and he could feel that the speed at which he absorbed Heaven and Earth Qi had increased slightly.

’My aptitude must have improved somewhat... I wonder how much it will change if this continues.’

The Longevity Technique was a top-tier Inner Cultivation Technique.

The deeper one’s Cultivation, the more powerfully it stimulated one’s Life Potential.

This Life Potential could defy and reshape his innate talent, strengthening his natural aptitude.

It didn’t just grant longevity; improving one’s talent was also part of the package.

An abundance of True Qi was one of the primary strengths of the Longevity Technique.

The deeper one’s Cultivation, the greater the benefits of this Divine Skill.

Furthermore, it was compatible with other Martial Arts, such as the Red Fire Divine Skill.

By using the Longevity Technique as a foundation to channel the characteristics of the Red Fire Divine Skill, one could even generate True Qi that surpassed the original technique.

’There’s still plenty of Essence Power. Reaching the Ninth Layer should be no problem.’

Feeling the immense Essence Power within him, Fang Xing activated the Dragon Roar Heart Method and began absorbing it with all his might.

Dragon Qi coiled around him as a golden dragon’s shadow materialized at his back, its imposing aura sweeping outward.

After breaking through to the Eighth Layer, his Dragon Mighty had grown even stronger.

Dragon Mighty had a significant effect on Demons and Monsters.

It was a mental and spiritual influence, which would be of great help to him the next time he fought Demons and Monsters.

In a battle between experts, the slightest influence could lead to a massive shift in the outcome.

A hair’s breadth of difference could lead to a world of error!

A momentary change could be enough to turn defeat into victory!

He cultivated both the Longevity Technique and the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt simultaneously, absorbing Essence Power to both stabilize his Cultivation and break through in his Martial Arts.

He could advance on both fronts at once!

「Half a month later.」

Autumn had settled over Jiang Province.

"Second place!"

In the Marshal’s Mansion, Shen Ye was slightly taken aback as he heard the latest quarterly rankings.

’The team didn’t have any outstanding results this quarter, did they?’

’How did we get second place?’

He had thought it would be a success just to stay in the top ten. He never expected to rank even higher than last quarter.

It was truly unexpected!

’Wait, no. If this ranking is correct, then someone must have completed a major mission to cause such a huge jump.’

A thought flashed through Shen Ye’s mind, and an instant later, a name surfaced.

Fang Xing!

Thinking of this, Shen Ye looked at Nangong Qing. "Uncle Qing, this quarter’s ranking... it’s because of Fang Xing, isn’t it?"

Nangong Qing glanced at him and nodded lightly. "Mm, you guessed correctly. A little over a month ago, Fang Xing completed an outstanding mission."

"He completed it with the Commander of Team A-1."

"Zhuang Qian!"

Shen Ye’s expression hardened. He immediately knew who that was.

’But how come I didn’t know about any mission?’

"Why didn’t you call me? We could have done it together, and I would’ve felt included," Shen Ye said, looking at Nangong Qing with a wounded expression.

Nangong Qing: "..."

"You? What’s your strength level? Could you even keep up? If you went, what’s the difference between that and suicide?" Nangong Qing said coolly.

Shen Ye: "..."

"Sigh, I’m a Commander in name only," Shen Ye lamented.

Nangong Qing rolled his eyes at him. "Alright, you have such a capable deputy, so stop complaining when you’ve got it so good. One day he might get transferred, and then you won’t even have a shoulder to cry on."

At this, Shen Ye smiled. "Uncle Qing, I was just letting off some steam."

"I know he’s definitely going to sit in the Vice Marshal’s seat one day."

"I just don’t know if he’ll be *my* Vice Marshal..." Nangong Qing sighed.

Shen Ye: "???"
