Chapter 857: Chapter 661 Divine Statue + Chapter 662 Space Channel
"I’ve actually advanced to the Organ Refinement Realm, and within mere moments, my heart has already been successfully refined. My physical strength has increased by seven- or eightfold compared to before."
The freshly bathed Tang Tang looked as radiant as a lotus emerging fresh from water. Her body emitted a faint, pleasant fragrance, with all traces of exhaustion wiped away. She resembled a polished gemstone, her face seeming to glow faintly.
Watching this, Zhou Lan couldn’t help but gulp several times, her envy almost driving her to tears.
She didn’t dare to cling to her brother any longer, figuring that this kind of secret technique, which could forcibly boost individual strength and accelerate cultivation so rapidly, must come at great cost and couldn’t be used often.
As his sister, she still needed to be considerate of her brother and avoid making requests that would burden him too much.
But still, she really wanted it too.
And... wasn’t her brother being a bit too biased? Now that he had a girlfriend, he seemed to have forgotten about his sister.
Zhou Ping’an, however, didn’t notice Zhou Lan’s inner dramatics at this moment. Hearing Tang Tang’s words, he couldn’t help but nod slightly.
From advancing from the Blood Refining Realm to the Organ Refinement Realm, Zhou Ping’an had considerable experience and knew just how enormous the leap in combat power was. Back in Qingyang City, when Lin Huaiyu stepped into the Organ Refinement Realm in one swift move, his strength had immediately taken a geometric leap. At the same time, his mastery of the Wave Subduing Blade Technique reached Great Achievement, allowing him to even go head-to-head with those in the later stages of the True Qi Realm.
As for Tang Tang, her Wave Subduing Blade Technique could at best be described as proficient and hadn’t reached such profound levels yet.
Even so, with her current combat prowess, no ordinary S-rank individual as per international evaluations could pose a challenge to her.
At the very least, that elderly S-rank adversary they had encountered in Proluo State was already far from being her match.
With someone of this caliber stationed in Dongjiang City, there was almost no risk of any real danger there.
Even leading a team out of the city to hunt ferocious beasts in the surrounding areas and expand the livable territory for Dongjiang’s residents was entirely feasible.
Evidently, Tang Tang had also thought of this. Her eyes lit up as she suppressed her inner excitement, taking a deep breath and saying, "If we could have ten – no, even just five more individuals with my level of strength, we could clear hundreds of square miles around Dongjiang."
Thinking about the vast forests and countless fertile fields occupied by ferocious beasts, Tang Tang couldn’t help but tremble slightly all over.
Since the Third War, this generation that had grown up under its shadow all shared one common dream: to reclaim lost lands, drive the ferocious beasts away from their homes, and restore peace and stability across all the surviving territories.
After all, humanity craves a sense of security.
Living cooped up in city walls, constantly running the gauntlet of life and death just to step outside – this feeling wasn’t much better than being imprisoned.
The most critical problem was that as living space shrank, cities had no choice but to keep building upwards, forcing everyone’s living areas to grow smaller and smaller.
For government officials like them, it wasn’t too bad.
But for ordinary citizens, it wasn’t uncommon for over a dozen people to squeeze into a 20-square-meter room.
As for food, aside from the staple grains, the variety and richness of offerings were incomparable to pre-war times.
People could only hope not to starve for the time being, or to avoid being eaten by ferocious beasts temporarily.
This was the reality of life for ordinary folks.
Although on the surface, the cities seemed prosperous and flourishing, adorned with vibrant flowers, the lives of the common people weren’t truly happy.
If the outskirts could be cleared of ferocious beasts and towns constructed in those areas, creating defensive perimeters – what an incredible achievement that would be!
"It’s a pity that this kind of rapid enhancement method must come with a huge price and can’t be used frequently."
At this thought, Tang Tang shook her head again.
That she had received such an enhancement was already a tremendous stroke of luck.
But if this enhancement came at the cost of slowing her junior brother’s cultivation growth, then it wasn’t worth it at all.
All those lofty ideals of serving the nation and the people still needed to be pursued within one’s capabilities.
"When prosperous, support the world; for now, I need to take care of myself."
"Just consider my ramblings as nonsense. Ping’an, you mustn’t push yourself too hard. In the future, don’t strain yourself enhancing my strength, either – I don’t mind cultivating slowly. Also, as for the ferocious beast issue outside the city, that’s just a small thought of mine. Your own cultivation progress is the most important thing right now. Don’t spend too much time on the ferocious beasts, or else the losses will outweigh the gains."
Tang Tang quickly advised as these thoughts crossed her mind.
"Actually, it’s not a problem," Zhou Ping’an reassured her, his tone calm. "Although I don’t currently have the time to fully deal with the ferocious beasts, I can still contribute covertly to some extent. As for that method just now, let me put it this way – you’ll understand. It’s a method that can be used infinitely."
Zhou Ping’an harbored a vague idea in his mind, though it had yet to fully solidify.
"Infinite?"
Tang Tang’s face changed, her eyes widening. "You’re saying it could benefit all the special operations unit members in the entire city?"
"Not just them."
Zhou Ping’an smiled.
More than just the city’s special operations teams. He speculated that with the Infinite Vitality accumulating endlessly within the Yang Mirror, even if he extracted just a single strand of the Vitality radiance, it would be enough that the collective population of humans across the entire Southeast Province couldn’t exhaust it.
"You’re saying it could support cultivation for all the residents of Dongjiang City?"
Tang Tang was nearly at a loss for words, her mouth opening and closing as uncertainty clouded her expression, unsure of how to respond to this.
"You can think even bigger – not just Dongjiang City, not even just the Southeast Province. In fact, nationally or even globally, as long as we desire... Vitality would never be in shortage."
After a long moment of silence.
Tang Tang finally recovered, saying, "If it really can sustain cultivation globally, then it has to be carefully managed. First, we can’t indiscriminately offer it to everyone equally. We need to make clear distinctions, prioritizing certain groups while avoiding empowering the enemy... and definitely not providing it for free. If people obtain it too easily, they won’t learn to value it, and gratitude might even turn into resentment."
"You’re absolutely right. Does Senior Sister have any good strategies in mind?"
