Creating Demonic Cultivation Techniques against Non-human Races-Chapter 195: Golden Body Seventh Forging, Dramatic Power Increase, Factions Seeking Alliance, Endless Gift-Givers
As for those machinations behind the scenes, Lin Ping’an is still completely unaware until now.
Of course, even if he were aware, he probably wouldn’t care.
A punch is power; immense strength is confidence.
No matter how many schemes and plots, they can’t withstand a single punch.
In the Great Xia Academy, inside Villa Number One,
at this moment, Lin Ping’an is still multitasking, training his golden body while creating a new technique.
Both tasks are progressing in parallel, with progress constantly climbing.
As time ticked away, a golden light flashed by.
Then, he temporarily stopped creating the new technique.
He withdrew his focus and concentrated on making a breakthrough.
With a brief pause, Lin Ping’an’s body suddenly emitted golden light, his Qi blood surged, and his spiritual power greatly increased.
His entire aura became more formidable, and that fleeting powerful aura made Qin Ruguo, who was in the principal’s office far away, inexplicably uneasy.
Unfortunately, no matter how he scanned with his spiritual power, he couldn’t find any anomalies and could only sit in worried contemplation.
Meanwhile, after successfully breaking through to the Seventh Forging Golden Body, Lin Ping’an opened his eyes, his expression calm and unruffled.
It’s just a breakthrough, as simple and easy as eating or drinking cold water.
Moreover, the steady increase in progress on the panel always mentally prepared him and gave him confidence.
For something clearly anticipated, what’s there to be surprised about?
At this moment, he directed his thoughts and opened the attribute panel.
Instantly, a screen only he could see appeared in his consciousness.
Name: Lin Ping’an
Qi Blood: 850,000 cal/850,000 cal
Spiritual Power: 38,000 Hz/38,000 Hz
Power of Heaven and Earth: 38,000 points/38,000 points
Martial Arts Realm: Eighth Grade Peak (Seventh Forging Golden Body 1%)
Created Techniques: 13 (click to view details)
Civilization Value: 1,530,000
Compared to before, Qi blood has increased by 150,000 calories, 50% more than the 100,000-calorie increase from the Fifth Forging to the Sixth Forging.
In this light, even though the difficulty of training the golden body increases in later stages, the gains are proportional.
What’s more, Lin Ping’an has an unprecedented solid foundation, with a base Qi blood limit so high it’s defying heaven.
Now, breaking through the golden body forging level yields ten to a hundred times the gain of a normal martial artist.
Normally, the Sixth Forging limit for an Eighth Grade Golden Body would be merely 100,000 calories.
Even if one doesn’t choose to break through to the Ninth Grade but continues to forge the golden body to the Seventh Forging realm, the Qi blood would only be about 120,000 to 130,000 calories.
This is equivalent to a more than 20% increase in the Qi blood limit.
Yet, Lin Ping’an already had a full 600,000 calories of Qi blood at the Sixth Forging, and after successfully increasing the limit by more than 20%, he gained the equivalent of one and a half times the limit of a typical Eighth Grade Sixth Forging.
A whole 150,000 calories!
This effect is simply unprecedented and unrepeatable.
Now, it’s truly hard to imagine how ridiculously powerful Lin Ping’an will become in the future.
In addition, the increase in spiritual power was 3,000 Hz, not much, just a spillover effect from the Qi blood increase.
Overall strength increased significantly again, but not by several magnitudes.
After all, although Lin Ping’an’s total Qi blood is astonishing now, other means seem to be lagging behind.
The commonly used techniques, the "Abi Dao Three Blades," "Heaven-Swallowing Demon Technique," "Illusory Demon Nine Shadows," etc., are Earth Level Techniques suitable for normal high tier martial artists, even Ninth Grade powerhouses.
But for him, who has long surpassed the Ninth Grade constraint, they feel somewhat weak.
Moreover, as Lin Ping’an’s Qi blood grows higher and his strength becomes more potent, the powerful Earth Level Techniques he once created have gradually become a bit of a hindrance.
They’re fine for clearing small fry and bullying weaker foes, but against strong opponents or enemies of the same level, even stronger beings, it’s easy to suffer big losses.
Although he hasn’t encountered such situations yet, nor has he come across related information,
Lin Ping’an has always preferred to prepare for a rainy day, acting after thorough planning and being well-prepared in advance.
Therefore, the task of creating stronger techniques has already been put on the agenda.
Of course, at present, he temporarily lacks the foundation and the ability to create Celestial Level Techniques.
All this still requires time for accumulation.
After successfully breaking through, Lin Ping’an paused slightly and once again entered the cultivation state.
He continued to improve the progress of the Seventh Forging of the Golden Body while also continuing to create that previous new technique.
(Unnamed) 75%...(Unnamed) 80%...(Unnamed) 85%...
Almost there... almost there... it’s almost complete!
Meanwhile,
outside the Great Xia Academy, in a concealed room in a nearby area,
at this moment, a group of remnants of evil martial artists is gathered, complaining loudly.
"Damn it! Damn it all! That damned Lin Ping’an keeps hiding inside the academy, with no intention of coming out."
"Yeah! If he doesn’t come out, we won’t have any opportunity at all!"
"A shut-in! Is this the sin of being a shut-in? Such a promising martial artist, and yet a shut-in!"
"What to do? What now? The Martial Arts Association is getting tighter in their investigation; if we don’t find a way to take down Lin Ping’an, we can’t earn merits, and the Divine Race adults won’t take action. We won’t survive."
"Ahhhhh! It’s infuriating me! All those past promising martial artists went through wind and rain, either doing missions or entering the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races, and now an outlier appears."
"To be fair, it’s normal. Lin Ping’an is a Civilization Master, and a high tier one at that, with a status comparable to a grandmaster. Now with insufficient strength, if I were the higher-ups at the Great Xia Academy, I wouldn’t let him wander about either."
...
After the last one finished speaking, there was first a dead silence, followed by a cacophony of angry shouts erupting.
"Damn! Shut your mouth!"
"You’re so talkative, you’re so talkative..."
"You’re invisible if you keep quiet! Want a beating!"
...
As the curses flew, the evil martial artists swarmed in, pummeling the talkative comrade on the spot. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Even if what he said was all true and every bit factual, and everyone understood it,
it didn’t stop them from venting their anger physically.
The truth often hurts the most.
This naive guy made it hard for the others to find excuses to comfort themselves or continue their daydreams.
How could he not get beaten up?
Not getting killed on the spot was only because the evil martial artists’ remaining forces were few; an extra scapegoat meant an extra resource.
In the past, such oblivious types would have been killed off directly.
Even in an evil cult, there’s a need for social etiquette. Low emotional intelligence often results in getting killed.
At this moment,
Lin Ping’an sits firmly like a mountain inside the Great Xia Academy, showing no intention of emerging from seclusion.
Outside the academy gates, individuals with various intentions lined up to curry favor with gifts, flooding the registry in a constant stream.
They temporarily left their items for the academy to hold and transfer.
Of course, if Lin Ping’an ultimately refuses these gifts, the academy will return them on his behalf.
It’s a necessary compromise; in recent days, too many representatives of various forces have come to seek meetings and deliver resources.
And Lin Ping’an remained in seclusion, with the academy’s higher-ups not disturbing him.
To prevent those individuals from lingering and gathering in larger numbers, a compromise was made for collection.
From an aerial view, looking further into the surrounding regions,
besides the evil martial artists, there are many other malevolent presences hidden.
They quietly wait for Lin Ping’an, their prey, to appear.
