True Qi: 752/930 ( 30%)
Seeing these numbers, Chen Fan heaved a sigh of relief.
With 930 points of Primordial True Qi, and an extra 30% True Qi bonus, the total True Qi in his body had already reached 1209 points.
The requirent to use the Wind-Chasing Arrow was t.
Of course, it could only be used once.
Thus, he planned to use this move as a trump card.
Glancing upwards,
Realm: Early Stage of ridian Refining (0/6,000,000)
The potential points needed for the next Chong ridian had increased from 4,300,000 to 6,000,000.
And there were nine acupoints in the Yin Qiao ridian; to fully clear them would require at least 54,000,000 potential points.
Chen Fan frowned.
The amount of potential points required was indeed quite high.
One must know that ten million potential points were enough to enhance his body once.
On the other hand, breaking through the ridians was inherently difficult.
Not only did the amount of True Qi required double, but one would also encounter True Qi disorder, and even the risk of energy deviation, which could range from wasted True Qi at best to damaged ridians with life-threatening consequences at worst.
Therefore, when the newly promoted ridian Refining Martial Artists within the association attempted to break through their ridians, they would often be accompanied by mid-stage ridian Refining Martial Artists to provide imdiate assistance in case of danger.
Those mid-stage and late-stage ridian Refining Martial Artists had to be even more cautious when breaking through, and even with soone accompanying them, the helper would not dare to intervene rashly if sothing went wrong, for fear that both would suffer severe internal injuries.
Thinking from this perspective, although the consumption of potential points was high, being able to ensure one-ti success was quite worth it.
"I still have twenty million contribution points left. If I use them all to purchase materials for refining Qi Blood Pills, I can buy 1000 portions. If each portion provides 300,000 potential points, that will be 300 million potential points."
Chen Fan pondered for a while.
million potential points, spending 50 million to clear the fourth ridian.
Then there would still be 250 million left. At ten million potential points per Chong ridian, clearing the fifth should not be a problem.
The sixth ridian, though, would probably be challenging.
"I should still save them to refine True Qi Pills."
Chen Fan thought to himself.
The price of materials for True Qi Pills would certainly be higher than that for Qi Blood Pills, but the cost-performance ratio would definitely be better than that of top-grade Qi Blood Pills.
"Tomorrow, I’ll take so ti to participate in the assessnt for ridian Refining Martial Artists. If I pass, I’ll be eligible to purchase the True Qi Pill formula and the martial arts at the ridian Refining Realm."
Chen Fan clenched his fist.
According to Uncle Zhang, a few years ago, the awakeners in Anshan City avoid clashing with elite-level Fierce Beasts unless necessary.
Now, he had the ability to kill elite-level Fierce Beasts, and if he went all out, he could retreat safely.
However, to be on the safe side, he wanted to improve his strength as much as possible.
Glancing at the ti, it was already eight or nine in the evening. Chen Fan tidied up the Alchemy Room, locked the door, and headed towards the president’s office.
He knocked twice. After hearing Sun Wei’s invitation to enter, he pushed the door open.
"Brother Chen, how’s it going? Was the alchemy process smooth? I heard you’ve been in there since last night and haven’t co out at all."
Sun Wei asked with a smile.
"Not too well."
Chen Fan returned the access card to him with a wry smile, "I used up about ten portions of materials and didn’t produce even a single pill."
He could only explain it this way, after all, the pills he refined had already been consud on the spot.
"Hahaha."
Sun Wei laughed heartily, "That’s normal. It was the sa for my friend. For the first month or two, he couldn’t refine a single pill, but it got better later."
"Hmm."
Chen Fan nodded, hesitated for a mont, then said, "President, besides this, there’s one more thing I’d like to discuss with you."
"Go ahead."
"President, I’d like to take the assessnt for the ridian Refining Martial Artist."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wei was stunned, his mouth agape, "You... you want to take the ridian Refining Martial Artist assessnt? Does that an you... you’ve already beco a ridian Refining Martial Artist?"
"I think so."
Chen Fan scratched his head, "I feel an energy flowing inside , which is completely different from the feeling of Power."
"An energy flowing? True Qi!"
Sun Wei exclaid.
"Hmm."
Chen Fan nodded.
"..."
Sun Wei was montarily speechless.
One must know, within the entire association, there were only about twenty or thirty ridian Refining Martial Artists, and most were in dium to large cities.
In a small city like Anshan City, the number of ridian Refining Martial Artists could be counted on one hand.
But Chen Fan?
He suddenly stood up from his chair, "Brother Chen, you’re not joking, are you? You really have Qi Sensing inside you?"
"President, do you think I’d joke about sothing like this?"
Chen Fan smiled wryly.
"Right, right."
Sun Wei, taken aback at first, then showed a look of excitent, muttering to himself, "I never expected our Anshan City branch to produce a ridian Refining Martial Artist. The ridian Refining Realm, the ridian Refining Realm."
His expression looked even more excited than Chen Fan’s.
"Alright, I’ll contact the headquarters imdiately. At most, in two or three days, they’ll send soone over to assess you."
"Two or three days?"
Chen Fan frowned slightly.
Isn’t that a bit too long?
Sun Wei noticed Chen Fan’s concern and smiled wryly, "The assessnt for ridian Refining Martial Artists is different from that for Entry Force Martial Artists. For Entry Force Martial Artists, the heads of each branch can make decisions. However, for the assessnt of ridian Refining Martial Artists, the headquarters’ approval is required.
It’s the sa in Qing City nearby."
"I see."
Chen Fan nodded, sowhat helpless but understanding.
After all, ridian Refining Martial Artists were the core strength of the association, and stricter requirents were understandable.
For the assessnt of True Essence Realm Martial Artists, the examiner would likely be the head of the main association.
"Brother Chen, your progress is indeed fast."
Sun Wei sighed.
He still rembered that Chen Fan was a Dark Power Martial Artist when he joined the branch a few days ago, and the next day, he advanced to the Transforming Force.
Now, he had beco a ridian Refining Martial Artist.
However, considering the combat power Chen Fan showed during his ti in the Transforming Force, it was indeed unmatched by other Martial Artists in the sa realm.
Breaking through so quickly seed to have its reasons.
After bidding farewell to Sun Wei, Chen Fan walked while pondering.
With a two to three days wait to unlock the purchase permission, he couldn’t rely on the True Qi Pills.
Tomorrow’s gold is not as good as today’s copper, so it’s better to continue buying materials to refine Qi Blood Pills.
Buying 200 portions, he could refine them within two days, providing 60 million potential points, just enough to break through to mid-stage ridian Refining.
In the anti, he could enhance his Basic Body Technique.
Additionally, he could return ho. It had been nearly three days since he left the stronghold, and according to the agreent, the old man should have a remnant cultivation technique for him.
As for now, he planned to practice his Body Technique.
In the training room.
In the northern cabinets, there were many weight vests.
These vests were made of special materials, highly dense, with the weights of a single vest ranging from hundreds to ten thousand pounds.
Chen Fan looked at his Physical Attributes, nearly 7000 points, with a maximum load of 70,000 pounds.
He walked to a vest weighing 10,000 pounds and easily put it on.
The last ti he trained his Body Technique was in Chen Family Fortress, and his load then was around 5,000 pounds; this ti, it was directly doubled.
When he tried to take another one, he realized the 10,000-pound vest was the only one.
It made him smile wryly. Even the early stage ridian Refining Martial Artists had around 1,000 in Physical Attributes, with a load of about 10,000 pounds.
Fortunately, after discussing with Sun Wei, he brought in all the 10,000-pound vests from the remaining training rooms.
After wearing about four vests, he finally felt the pressure, as if several mountains were weighing down on him.
"Let’s go with this for now."
Chen Fan thought to himself, once accustod to this weight, he could slowly increase it when the growth of his Basic Body Technique’s skill level slowed down.
...
Early the next morning, before dawn, nearly a hundred guards and seven or eight military vehicles had assembled at Song Family Castle.
There were even two vehicles carrying two pieces of heavy artillery at the back.
Fully ard, everyone looked ahead at the Fortress Lord Song Hailong.
"Cousin, everyone is here; we can depart anyti."
Cheng Lei walked over and said.
"Hmm."
Song Hailong nodded, his eyes cold and sweeping across everyone present. He said loudly, "You all know what happened. The people of Chen Family Stronghold dared to co to Song Family Castle to kill. They even dared to kill Captain Guan! Should we seek revenge!"
"Revenge!"
Nearly a hundred people roared in unison.
"Should we kill the people of Chen Family Stronghold?"
"Kill!"
"Good! Follow my order, and depart imdiately!"
As the city gates opened, one after another, the military vehicles roared out towards Chen Family Stronghold.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the outline of Chen Family Stronghold appeared in everyone’s sight.
From a distance, the gates were closed, and inside was silent like the grave.
"These bastards are sleeping soundly."
Song Hailong looked at the scene with rage, his teeth almost grinding.
He hadn’t closed his eyes since last night.
"Cousin, should we have our n rush in and capture them?"
"No rush."
Song Hailong sneered, "What about the heavy artillery? Shoot a few rounds first. Blow up these bastards before capturing them."
Cheng Lei nodded.
Indeed, doing so would weaken the enemy’s fighting force and reduce their own losses.
Soon, two 75mm howitzers were pushed by over a dozen guards to aim at the gates of Chen Family Stronghold.
The weight of these cannons was 800 kilograms each, and the shells were nearly 5 kilograms. When fired, they could blast a one-ter-wide, half-ter-deep crater in the ground. The killing radius of the dense shrapnel rain around the explosion was up to 75 ters.
With just a few rounds, the small Chen Family Stronghold would certainly suffer heavy casualties.
"Open fire! Blow up Chen Family Stronghold!"
Song Hailong shouted.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The deafening sound of the cannons spread far and wide, and people in Anshan City, a hundred miles away, were awakened from their sleep, looking around with confusion, wondering if there was an earthquake.
With the dense shells falling, countless houses were blown to pieces. Shrapnel and debris flew in all directions, and before long, the entire Chen Family Stronghold was engulfed in a sea of flas.
"Damn it, these beasts!"
With the flickering flas, Song Hailong looked at the scene, a ferocious smile on his face.
Cheng Lei also showed a sense of appreciation.
This was the power of heavy artillery.
Not to ntion Muscle Refining Martial Artists, even Entry Force Martial Artists would be blown to pieces under such firepower.
But gradually, he felt sothing was off.
Silence,
It was too quiet.
