The sky gradually darkened, and soon the entire fortress was enveloped in darkness.
Many people had stayed up all night and were exhausted, quickly falling into a deep sleep.
So people, however, were tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.
At this mont, a barely audible sound of footsteps quickly approached and then gradually faded away.
Soone couldn’t help but open the door out of curiosity and looked ahead, but found nothing in the darkness, showing a puzzled expression.
They were sure they heard footsteps; could it have been a hallucination?
In reality, it wasn’t; a shadow indeed flashed by in the dark night.
This shadow was none other than Chen Fan.
He was carrying two bags weighing over 150 pounds each, and had two more bags on his shoulders, totaling over 600 pounds, running along the inner circle of the wall.
It wasn’t just simple running, but purposely trying to minimize the sound of each landing to quickly improve the skill level of [Basic Body Technique].
As a result, practically every lap he ran improved the skill level of Basic Body Technique by about 10%.
After less than ten laps, Chen Fan felt his entire body lighten, indicating that his Basic Body Technique had upgraded.
[Basic Body Technique: lv4 (0%), Light Spirit Level 3, Fluctuating Level 1]
"Fluctuating?"
An expression of surprise appeared in Chen Fan’s eyes.
This seed to be a trait of Basic Step Technique; its effect boosted evasion by 30%.
It made sense for Basic Body Technique to unlock this trait as well.
"If it were a higher-level evasion trait, it would be even better."
He sighed softly.
He continued running.
This ti, after one lap, the skill improvent was only a bit over 5%.
About twenty laps later, Basic Body Technique upgraded again.
No new traits appeared this ti.
This ti, each lap improved the skill level by only 2.5%.
Chen Fan remained enthusiastic.
It was worth noting that when he practiced dodging on the ihua Stance, his skill improvent was much slower than this.
In the dark night, several shadows gathered together, watching Chen Fan constantly run by, with deep admiration in their eyes.
"No wonder Brother Chen has such skills, it’s so late, and he’s still practicing alone. Zhao Da and others are not nearly as diligent." He Fei remarked.
"Yeah, carrying four rice bags, weighing at least 600 pounds, six hundred pounds! Even carrying a hundred pounds would be a struggle for ."
"Who wouldn’t struggle? And Brother Chen has run dozens of laps by now, right?"
"He’s truly a fierce man."
As they spoke, a figure suddenly appeared before them.
"!"
They widened their eyes in shock, almost scared to death.
"Put two more bags on my shoulders."
Chen Fan said.
"Add more?"
Wu Guang was shocked, "Brother Chen, adding more ans six bags."
"Yeah, Brother Chen, maybe you should ease up?"
"It’s alright, I can handle it."
Chen Fan smiled at them, then turned his back to them, putting down the two bags in his hands and steadied the bags on his shoulders.
After running so many laps, he felt this weight was far from reaching his limit.
Co to think of it, a normal person’s Physical Attribute was only 10 points, but his had reached 500 points.
A normal person can carry sothing weighing 100 pounds, and in a running state, 20 pounds would be about the limit.
Based on this calculation, Chen Fan predicted that with his current attributes, he could easily run with a 1000-pound load.
With re walking, it might reach 5000 pounds! That ans he could walk carrying an Iron Armor Rhinoceros!
Seeing this, the others couldn’t argue further, collectively lifting the two 150-pound rice bags and placing them on his shoulders.
"Brother Chen, it’s done." Wu Guang said, with a bit of concern in his eyes.
Six bags of rice? That’s nine hundred pounds! Can Brother Chen handle it?
"Good, thank you. If you’re tired, feel free to rest early." Chen Fan said, picking up the remaining two rice bags and standing up.
"Not tired, not tired."
They quickly replied.
Helping Chen Fan was a rare opportunity for them.
Watching Chen Fan’s figure quickly disappear, they praised him again.
Chen Fan started running and indeed felt the pressure.
One lap consud twice as much energy as before.
However, the skill improvent was also significant.
Originally, it improved by about 2.5% per lap, now it was nearly 4%.
After more than ten laps, Chen Fan began to struggle, and his running speed was noticeably slower.
After another three laps, Chen Fan felt his body lighten again.
[Basic Body Technique: lv6 (0%), Light Spirit Level 6, Fluctuating Level 3]
"No new traits unlocked?"
Chen Fan gasped for breath and glanced.
No need to rush; he would spend the entire night improving Basic Body Technique.
The higher the level of Basic Body Technique, the fewer Experience Points would be needed to max out those Lightweight Skills later.
Putting down the two rice bags, he leaned against the wall to rest for about ten minutes, then resud running.
This ti, each lap only improved the skill level by 2%.
After fifty laps, a strange feeling surged in his heart.
Chen Fan felt a thrill and looked at the skill bar eagerly,
[Basic Body Technique: lv7 (0%), Light Spirit Level 7, Fluctuating Level 4, Opening and Closing Level 1]
[Opening and Closing: Each skill level increases jumping ability by 30%]
"Improving jumping ability?"
Chen Fan was a bit surprised.
Jumping ability is related to agility.
A normal person’s vertical jump distance is between 50-60 centiters, so gifted individuals can reach 80-90 centiters, but clearly, these gifted individuals have extraordinary agility.
Before his breakthrough, Chen Fan’s Agility Attribute was over 100 points, so he could jump up to a five-six ter high lookout tower. Now, with 300 points in Agility Attribute, he could easily jump at least fifteen ters, aning he could effortlessly leap over Song Family Castle’s walls!
Including the boost from Opening and Closing, he could reach 20 ters!
"Maybe I should try running and jumping next?"
He pondered but dismissed the idea.
If he accidentally dropped the bags, it would be awkward.
"Training equipnt is still too scarce."
He sighed softly and continued running.
Ti passed.
With a faint warm current rising, Basic Body Technique upgraded to Level 9.
[Basic Body Technique: lv9 (0%), Light Spirit Level 9, Fluctuating Level 6, Opening and Closing Level 3]
Chen Fan was drenched in sweat, as if he had walked out of the water.
Two more levels up, now each lap increased the skill level by only 0.5%, aning it would take 200 laps to upgrade one level.
It was getting late, so he decided to call it a night.
He returned to the villa, showered, and had a hearty al.
Since reaching Entry Force Realm, his al intake was more than twice his previous intake, adding over a hundred Potential Points per al.
Adding up to three hundred points a day wasn’t bad at all.
After eating, Chen Fan looked at the skill bar, [Water Floating], and [Grass Soaring], both martial arts seed similar.
"I’ll start with Grass Soaring first."
Chen Fan recalled the scene of his morning encounter with Zhao Da, feeling curious.
First, he added so Experience Points, improving [Grass Soaring] by one-third.
Adding two more points, Chen Fan felt his body lighten, his mind naturally filled with a segnt of mory.
He eagerly looked at it,
[Grass Soaring: Initial Glimpse (0%), Trait: Light Body Level 1]
[Light Body: Each skill level permanently increases agility attribute by 5 points]
"Increasing 5 attribute points? Not bad."
Chen Fan nodded, aning, upgrading to Perfection Realm, agility attribute could increase by 25 points, nearly ten percent.
But only one trait? No other?
He rubbed his eyes and checked again.
Confirming twice, indeed, only one trait.
Chen Fan shook his head and had to add another Experience Point, this ti increasing the skill level by 20%.
Consuming 5 Experience Points, he felt lightness again, and then nothing else.
"???"
Chen Fan looked at the skill bar,
[Grass Soaring: Slight Achievent (0%), Trait: Light Body Level 2]
No new traits unlocked.
Chen Fan scratched his head,
This body technique martial art seed to unlock few traits?
Next, he consud 10 Experience Points, this ti feeling a strange sensation in his heart, finally unlocking a new trait.
[Grass Soaring: Entering the Hall (0%), Traits: Light Body Level 3, Swift Footwork Level 1]
[Swift Footwork: Active Skill, upon activation, continuously consus a small amount of power, increasing speed by 50%; each skill level additionally increases speed by 10%; cannot be used in combat]
"That’s it!"
Chen Fan’s eyes lit up.
Zhao Da’s sudden speed burst must have used this skill, suggesting his skill level is Entering the Hall?
Improving travel speed? aning, in close combat, this skill is unusable?
Chen Fan frowned, expecting an agility attribute boost, which would benefit both long-distance running and close-quarters combat.
Wait.
He noticed sothing, moving his gaze forward.
"Consuming a small amount of power?"
He was surprised.
Shouldn’t it consu the power of Qi and Blood?
Zhao Da, that guy was just a Martial Artist in Muscle Refining Realm, where does he have power to consu?
Chen Fan frowned, then realized sothing, looking at other martial arts.
Only to find,
Whether it’s Tai Chi Fist, Level 8 Fist, or teor Arrow Technique, their skill descriptions originally consuming the power of Qi and Blood had changed to consuming power.
The previous skills consuming Spiritual Power remained unchanged.
"So it’s true."
Chen Fan realized.
Since becoming a Ming Jin Martial Artist, his internal power of Qi and Blood had transford into power.
Now, activating these active skills, he no longer worried about falling into a weakened state.
Though this concern was sowhat redundant for him.
"Hmm, the consumption amount has changed too."
Chen Fan’s gaze fell on the trait [Spear Decides the Universe]. It originally described consuming a lot of Qi and Blood to unleash the strongest strike.
Now, it described consuming a moderate amount of power.
The improvent remained unchanged.
"Indeed, power is a higher-level energy." Chen Fan thought, if he produced True Qi inside him, these martial arts traits would likely change again.
Tai Chi Fist, Level 8 Fist, these techniques could be used in Body Tempering Realm, Muscle Refining Realm, and Entry Force Realm, and probably beyond Entry Force Realm.
However, Entry Force Realm was likely their period of greatest potency.
Beyond that, they would not match other martial arts for energy utilization.
