But I'm definitely stronger than before, Apollo could feel that he has at least twice the strength of a 7-year-old. He only did the Simple Breathing Technique for an hour or two, and the effect is already so great.
And that potion... Apollo observed his right hand. It's like he never got injured from his dumb decision.
"Hey System,"
"Yes, Host?"
"You said I will be able to reach the Foundation Building stage with this technique, how long will it take?"
"Two weeks if the Host cultivates it 8 hours a day," The System answered.
"Two weeks? So reaching that stage is that easy?" Apollo muttered in surprise. If the Cultivators heard his words, they would have rushed at him and beat him up for saying those words.
"Ti to get back to work then!" Apollo went back to his previous spot and raised his hands above his forehead.
Hopefully, another good Samaritan will give him money. Silver gives him 10 Alm points, so probably a bronze coin will give him 1 Alm point and a gold coin will give him 100 Alm points.
He also wanted to reach that stage as soon as possible because of the mission the System issued him. He had to find that guy who threw him in the alley within a month and then kill him.
Although he doesn't have any idea as to what stage that guy is, at least reaching the Foundation Building stage will boost his confidence.
Cultivating the Simple Breathing Technique is the only thing he could do at the mont besides collecting Alm points.
Although the introduction of the Breathing Technique is simple, he felt like it would be good for his foundation. These thoughts co from his many years in business. Ro was not built in a day, right?

"We're here, Ma'am Bel," June's voice echoed outside the silver chariot.
"Okay," Bel responded. The door opened, and she went out, then she put the bandage-covered broadsword behind her back.
She looked up and read the signboard.
"Filly Restaurant… what a la na," Bel shook her head with a smile.
She started walking towards the entrance when she noticed June still standing and seed to be looking at sothing.
"Hey, what are you looking at?" She asked while turning to the direction he's glancing. She saw a young beggar on the side of the restaurant with his hands above his forehead.
"Ignore him, let's go!"
"Yes, Ma'am," June took one more glance before he followed behind her. The beggar boy seed kinda off. Strange, where do I get this feeling?
They entered the restaurant and were greeted with a luxurious interior. There's already diners eating with a smile on their faces.
"Haha, really, turning this rundown place into sothing like this," Bel smiled. Outside, one might think it's just a simple restaurant, but once they enter inside, they will be greeted with this high-class scene.
A server went forward and bowed towards her. "Miss Bel, our lady is waiting for you. Please follow ."
"Okay,"
They followed the server, who led them to the second floor. After walking for a while, the server stopped at a door and knocked a couple of tis until the sound of a woman echoed from behind it.
"What is it?"
"Miss Bel from the Helflick Family is here," the server replied.
"I see, you can go now." The woman's voice instructed, and the server bowed to the two guests before departing.
The door opened, revealing a woman wearing the sa uniform as Bel's: a black and white suit with a robe on top, adorned with the sa serpent insignia on her chest. Her hair was reddish-brown, and her eyes resembled the ocean. A rounded glass rested on top of her nose, adding a sense of authority to her deanor.
"You ca. Co inside," the woman said, moving aside to let them in.
"Thanks, Filly," Bel said, glancing around the room.
Filly nodded towards June, and the two won took a seat.
"So, what brings you here?" Filly went straight to the point.
"Straight as ever," Bel smiled. "Leone disappeared overnight, and our family wanted to take part in, you know... slicing its remaining legs."
"I figured," Filly laughed. "You wanted to take part in it?"
"Yes," Bel confird. "I heard they still have good fighters remaining to protect their business. I wanted to fight them to improve my experience."
"I'm not surprised. You're a battle maniac," Filly chuckled.
"Haha, I'm not going to deny it. So, do you want to join?" Bel asked.
"Nah, I'm good here," Filly waved her hand. "Besides, it won't be long before this area develops."
"Oh? Is that the reason you bought this place? I might say I really like the interior," Bel praised.
"Yes, and thanks."
They conversed for a while before Bel stood up. "I need to go back to the sect. Thanks for the chat."
"Feel free to co back," Filly smiled, standing up and hugging her friend.
"Oh, by the way, there's a beggar boy sitting beside your restaurant. I'm just reminding you," Bel ntioned as she recalled the boy.
Filly frowned upon hearing this. "Thanks for telling ."
"Alright, see you!"
After the two left, Filly remained standing there. "A beggar near my restaurant? That's not good."
She had chosen to buy this building in this area because of its future developnt. If she wanted to build a great reputation for her restaurant, she had to ensure that diners had a pleasant experience. If there was soone near her restaurant who was going to ruin people's appetites before they even entered, it would definitely not be good for business.
"I have to make him go away," Filly muttered, then called one of her servants.
A servant knocked on the door, and Filly let him in. "There's a beggar boy near the restaurant. Do whatever you can to make him go away."
The servant's eyes lit up. It's ti to show my skills!
"Yes, Ma'am!" The servant bowed before leaving with big strides.
Hehe, boy, don't bla . I'm only doing my job, the servant thought, smiling maliciously.
