Gao Wu: Become stronger by grinding Erlang Shen's talents

Chapter 525 Lin Qi's Stage! (Seeking monthly votes)

After hearing this, Lin Qi belatedly realized that his excitement was fading and a feeling of exhaustion was washing over him.

He then took out a bottle of top-grade potion from the pocket of his armor and drank it all in one gulp.

I immediately felt a significant reduction in my physical fatigue.

"Oh!"

At this moment, Mu Hong, dressed in black armor, suddenly appeared, his cold face expressionless.

However, Lin Qi and the other two could all sense the fatigue in Mu Hong.

"Let's go back!"

The three nodded and began their return to base.

Lin Qi glanced at the time; it was already 7:30 p.m. and the sky was completely dark.

The moon has appeared behind the clouds.

Only the artificial miniature suns in the sky remained, illuminating the entire battlefield once more.

The massive monster horde is nearing its end.

Nine hours have passed since 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.

"Kaka!!"

"Boom!!"

As the number of monsters on the battlefield decreased, a large number of transport vehicles and tower cranes began to enter the site to transport the corpses of the monsters.

They were the first to transport the corpses of high-level calamity beasts.

At the same time, a large number of advanced martial artists also returned to the base. On the way back, Pei Yiqing said goodbye and left with Pei Hongfeng.

Lin Qi, Dean Liu, and teacher Mu Hong parted ways after entering the dormitory area.

Lin Qi himself returned to room 206 exhausted.

"Xiao Chan, cook rice!"

"Okay, master!"

Lin Qi took off his black and gold armor; after a day of fighting, the armor was dirty.

"Whoosh!!"

In the bathroom, Lin Qi let the hot water wash over his body, a wave of intense fatigue washing over him.

After relaxing, Lin Qi realized that he had exhausted his physical strength and a feeling of hunger and thirst overwhelmed him.

A few minutes later, he emerged from the bathroom, feeling refreshed.

The air was filled with the aroma of food. Lin Qi quickly sat down at the table and took out bottles of energy drinks.

They picked up their rice bowls and began to eat heartily.

At the same time, he checked the War House for information about himself.

[Name: Lin Qi (Heilong Base)]

[Realm: Seventh Realm Blood Transformation]

[Merit Points: 75800]

[Base Ranking: 380→360]

Overall Ranking: 3550 → 3490

……

Seeing that his ranking had improved again, Lin Qi nodded to himself.

At this rate, he will soon be able to enter the top 100.

He earned over 7 merit points in a day of fighting, which felt easier than he had imagined.

If another wave of monsters comes, I can buy Blood Spirit Potions again.

Having taken one Blood Spirit Potion, he was already looking forward to the second one.

He was indeed best suited for the battlefield. Lin Qi recalled today's battle. Facing the level seven calamity beast, he was not afraid, but rather extremely excited.

Their combat power was also stronger than usual.

After half an hour,
Unbeknownst to him, 1000 kilograms of flesh and blood from an eighth-level calamity beast entered Lin Qi's stomach.

He felt he had only eaten about 8% of his fill.

Back in the martial arts room, sitting cross-legged, he felt his appetite had increased again.

The constant use of internal energy in war consumes a great deal of physical strength.

This causes extreme hunger, and even the best treatment can only heal the injuries, not suppress the hunger.

However, the greater the consumption, the greater the improvement!
"Hoohoo!!"

The temperature inside the martial arts room was set to the most comfortable 25 degrees Celsius, but Lin Qi felt very hot. His body was operating at high speed, and his cells were frantically absorbing energy.

So he closed his eyes and began cultivating the advanced source energy technique—the "Golden Emperor's Secret Manual."

"roar~"

In the space of consciousness, the Golden Emperor Tiger emerged, its majestic and enormous body causing the space to tremble.

Even though it was just a mental image, the Golden Emperor Tiger still exuded a mysterious aura.

As soon as the Golden Emperor Tiger appeared, it opened its blood-red maw and began frantically absorbing the surrounding source energy.

The body became icy cold, and a large amount of icy breath entered the body through the pores.

It made Lin Qi feel as if he were in a cold river, with the energy engulfing his body.

Specific breathing causes the body's energy to circulate along a specific trajectory, and the movement of cells also changes.

Lynch's mental energy penetrated deep into the cells, sensing their movement.

The fifth-tier spear technique requires penetrating deep into the body and beginning to strengthen control over the cells.

With continuous practice, he gradually began to master cells, but he could only master a portion of them.

Once he can master the cells and allow the influence of the life magnetic field to spread out, that will be the time to break through to the fifth-order spear technique.

Like gluttonous beasts, they frantically devour all source energy, causing cells to move wildly and transforming the entire body.

"call!!"

Lin Qi was completely absorbed and felt exceptionally comfortable, as if he were having a spa treatment, his whole body was relaxed.

He radiated a dazzling golden light, and the phantom of a giant golden tiger appeared behind him.

……

Two hours later, the golden light in the martial arts room began to slowly dissipate.

Lin Qi opened his eyes, and an invisible magnetic field formed a powerful pressure that spread outwards, creating a violent gust of wind.

Lin Qi slowly stood up. Much of the food in his stomach had been consumed, and his body was surging with power.

[You have completed a Source Energy Cultivation session. Your physical strength has increased, and your health has increased by 150.]

[Qi and Blood Value: 5500 → 5650]

……

When Lynch saw the data, the corners of his mouth turned up.

As expected, fighting against the calamity beasts can deplete the body's energy, making cultivation more efficient.

Then he picked up his phone and placed an order for another 2000 kilograms of level-eight calamity beast flesh on War House.

If they keep eating like this, it won't be long before they have to replace their food with the flesh and blood of a level nine calamity beast.

……

On August 22, the massive monster horde ended!

The Black Dragon Base began cleaning up the battlefield, transporting the carcasses of the calamity beasts, and dividing them up, with some of them being used inside the base.

Another portion was transported to Bac Giang Province for consumption.

Meanwhile, all martial artists entered a rest phase, with some healing their injuries and others choosing to go home to recuperate.

Most martial artists, on the other hand, began using their merit points to exchange for resources and seize the time to cultivate.

With increased strength, the next wave of calamity beasts will also be able to become stronger.

……

Time flies, and September 10th has arrived in the blink of an eye.

On this day, at the spacious airport of the Heilong base.

"Boom!!"

A Peregrine fighter jet landed at the airport.

"Buzz!!"

The cabin door slowly opened, and a figure stepped out.

Dressed in a long, dark robe, Shen Heng, with his upright posture, looked at the base before him and sighed:

"finally reached!"

"I heard Lin Qi is at the Black Dragon Base now. I wonder how he's doing?"

"Shen Heng!"

"teacher!"

Shen Heng looked at the middle-aged man in silver robes opposite him and immediately revealed his face.

This is his teacher, a top-tier eighth-realm martial artist.

"Shen Heng, let me explain the various rules and regulations of the entire Black Dragon Base to you..."

The two carried their luggage towards the accommodation area!
"At our Black Dragon Base, you need to download War House; you can find out everything there."

"The most important thing is merit points..."

"There are also various rankings, based on merit points. You're already at the seventh level. I believe you'll be able to break into the top 200 in a few months."

The man in the silver robe spoke with a smile.

Shen Heng nodded, his brain receiving the new information.

"Lin Qi is really amazing, he has already reached number 120 on the Seventh Realm Ranking."

"He's only been at the Black Dragon Base for less than a month."

"To be precise, it's 22 days!"

The conversation between two passersby nearby immediately caught Shen Heng's attention.

"Lin Qi?"

"Ranked 120th on the Seven Realms Ranking?"

"Teacher, what level is 120th in the Seven Realms ranking?" Shen Heng couldn't help but ask curiously.

The man in the silver robe also heard the conversation, and he laughed:

“In our Black Dragon Base, those who rank in the top 200 are extremely powerful seventh-realm warriors in the entire Xia Kingdom.”

"Most of them are only at the peak of the seventh realm, which is enough to enter the top 200."

"But you are an SSS-level genius, and you have reached the peak of the seventh realm in just a few months."

Shen Heng nodded, then asked curiously:
"I heard from them that Lin Qi seems to be very powerful now?"

"They actually climbed into the top 120 of the rankings in just 22 days!"

The man in the silver robe laughed and said, "What's this? For Lin Qi, this ranking is too low."

“You may not know something because you are cultivating in the Blood Pillar of Ten Thousand Beasts.”

"On his second day at the Black Dragon Base, Lin Qi defeated Gu Cheng, who was currently ranked 92nd!"

"what?"

Shen Heng doubted that he had heard correctly!

He knew Gu Cheng all too well; he was his senior from the previous year and the champion of the Global Martial Arts Competition.

Being ranked 92nd shows that the opponent is by no means weak.

But how could he be defeated by Lin Qi, who had only been at the Black Dragon Base for two days?

The man in the silver robe then recounted in detail the events leading up to the duel.

After hearing the whole story, Shen Heng was completely stunned.

So many things have happened at the base in less than a month.

And then there's Lin Qi, who became the protagonist as soon as he arrived at the Black Dragon Base.

He realized that he was no match for Gu Cheng, and was far inferior to Lin Qi.

How long has it been, and I've already fallen so far behind?
……

At this moment, Shen Heng and the man in the silver robe passed by room 206 in the accommodation area.

Inside the martial arts room, Lin Qi, dressed in a black martial arts uniform, brandished a gun with both hands.

The "Mountain and River Spear Technique" was unleashed, with the Golden Emperor's罡劲 (Golden Emperor's罡劲) condensed on the spear.

"Boooooooh!!"

"Chi chi chi!!"

As the spear technique is unleashed, the imagery of mountains and rivers emerges, flowing together with the internal energy within the spear.

The gun was swung, tearing through the air and making a series of sounds.

Lynch has now developed muscle memory for his marksmanship, and he is fully committed to controlling his cells.

The body is covered with a vast number of cells, many times more numerous than muscles.

There are at least billions of them, and it would be too difficult to control them all.

It can only mobilize a part of the whole. It penetrates little by little, takes control of the cells, and improves the skill of marksmanship.

An invisible force of spiritual energy was spreading outwards, as if forming a small domain.

after an hour,

"Zheng~"

The imagery of mountains and rivers slowly dissipated, and Lin Qi slowly sheathed his spear, the tip of which emitted lingering echoes.

Through arduous training, you have gained a new understanding of marksmanship; Marksmanship +1%.

[Gun Technique: Tier 4 82 → Tier 4 83%]

……

Lin Qi looked at his panel; his marksmanship was already at 83% progress.

I've been at the Black Dragon Base for almost a month now, and my martial arts skills have improved rapidly.

I'm only 17% away from achieving the fifth-tier spear technique.

He felt he was getting closer and closer to the realm of power, and there was a third killing move to come.

Once he comprehends the third killing move, his combat power will continue to increase.

A moment later, Lin Qi came out of the bathroom.

Lunch is ready, a feast of meat dishes, all made from the flesh and blood of level eight calamity beasts.

He began to eat heartily.

Simultaneously project the panel to view your own panel data.

[Name: Lin Qi (Heilong Base)]

[Realm: Seventh Realm Blood Transformation]

[Merit Points: 15.86 million]

[Base Ranking: 120]

[Overall Ranking: 400]

……

Lin Qi smiled as he looked at his ranking; in just over 20 days, he had climbed to 120th place.

His overall ranking reached 400th.

In the entire Xia Kingdom, only 399 people have more merit points than him.

This does not mean that there are 399 people who are better than him.

He then checked Gu Cheng's ranking; Gu Cheng and Gu Ming had already left the Black Dragon Base.

Currently in the Sky Base in another world.

Currently ranked 92nd on the leaderboard and 350th overall.

The ranking is even higher than mine.

After some time, I will be able to surpass Gu Cheng.

Then he saw Xu Qin's ranking.

[Name: Xu Qin (Heilongjiang Base)]

[Base Ranking: 70]

[Overall Ranking: 300]

……

Xu Qin's ranking is also rising, but the rate of increase is getting smaller and smaller.

The warriors at the seventh realm have all spent several years on the battlefield, making it increasingly difficult for them to advance.

half an hour later

After consuming 1000 kilograms of flesh and blood from the table, Lin Qi rested briefly before returning to the martial arts room.
I sat cross-legged, eyes closed, feeling the blood flowing through my body.

A few days ago, he took the Blood Elixir again and successfully completed his fourth blood transfusion.

Physical strength has increased again, and combat power has been further enhanced.

Therefore, its ranking rose rapidly.

He felt his blood flowing through his veins becoming increasingly viscous and heavy, drawing ever closer to becoming like a syrupy blood plasma.

The nature of the blood is also changing, and even its color is becoming more transparent and deep.

……

The next day, at 9 a.m.

"Woooo!!"

With the teacher's introduction, Shen Heng has gained a general understanding of the entire Black Dragon Base.

He also received an emergency notification from the House of War that a large-scale monster horde had broken out at the Black Dragon Base.

So he immediately put on his black and silver armor, held it in one hand, and went out.

Downstairs in the dormitory area, I walked to the main gate with the others and soon met my teacher.

"Shen Heng, you're lucky. Your first time on the battlefield, you encountered a massive horde of monsters."

"You'll stay by my side today!"

Shen Heng nodded, showing extraordinary curiosity about everything. He followed his teacher to the top and stood up with the other high-level martial artists.

They also saw Xu Qin in green armor, and she nodded and greeted them.

There was also Lin Qi, dressed in black and gold armor, holding a gun in one hand, exuding a domineering aura, making him stand out among the high-level martial artists.

The other person also sensed his gaze, turned around, and nodded in greeting.

Shen Heng had a strange feeling. He was supposed to be the senior student, but on the battlefield, he felt like a greenhorn.

Lin Qi, a junior student, has become a veteran.

"Boom!!"

"kill!"

Moments later, the battle officially began, with the ninth-realm warriors making the first move.

Next, the high-level martial artists took action, which made Shen Heng, who was on the battlefield for the first time, quite nervous.

He followed his teacher into the battlefield, and looking at Lin Qi, he saw that Lin Qi was at the very top, already fighting against the level seven disaster alongside Dean Liu.

“Puff~~”

He began hunting down low-level monsters in the area, followed by mid-level monsters.

The silver-armored man hunted the monsters with him while explaining the precautions for the battlefield.

Finally, he was left to hunt intermediate-level calamity beasts alone, while he went to hunt level-eight calamity beasts.

"Bang!!"

Shen Heng brandished his battle armor and began hunting down level-six calamity beasts with ease.

He observed the level eleven calamity beast, comprehended an advanced source energy technique, and even cultivated the罡劲 (罡劲 is a type of internal energy cultivation technique), greatly increasing his combat power.

He adapted quickly and felt that the battlefield was just like that.

"Ow~"

The next instant, a roar rang out, and a massive figure appeared.

He recognized the creature; it was a ground-splitting wolf.

"Zizzi!!"

Shen Heng was surrounded by thunderous energy, which condensed into sword energy to resist the sudden attack of the Earth-Splitting Wolf.

His body was thrown out and rolled several times on the ground before coming to a stop.

"So fast!!"

Shen Heng was greatly shocked. It was his first time fighting a level seven calamity, and he was astonished by the opponent's speed.

"Ow~"

A foul gust of wind swept in, obscuring the sky and the sun; it was the unusually large claws of the Earth-Splitting Wolf.

"Bang!!"

Shen Heng swung his sword again to defend, but was blasted away once more, his whole body trembling and his blood surging!

"Ow~"

Just then, the mournful howl of a Earth-Splitting Wolf rang out, and a golden spear beam pierced the sky, instantly penetrating the Earth-Splitting Wolf's neck.

Blood splattered in the air, the earth shook violently, and the corpses collapsed with a thud.

"Senior Shen Heng, are you alright?"

Lin Qi, dressed in black and gold armor, extended his hand.

Shen Heng was pulled up. Looking at the dead Earth-Splitting Wolf, and then at Lin Qi, his expression was somewhat complicated.

Now he can clearly feel the gap between himself and Lynch.

I still remember that during the Sky Dome Competition a few months ago, Lin Qi was no match for me.

But only a few months have passed, and he is now no match for Lin Qi at all, with a huge gap between them.

"I'm fine, thank you, Junior Brother Lin Qi!" Shen Heng said.

Lin Qi said, "Senior Shen Heng, level seven calamity beasts are not strong. I believe you will soon be able to adapt to fighting against high-level calamity beasts."

After saying that, he transformed into a black lightning bolt and charged towards the other calamity beasts.

"call!!"

Shen Heng let out a breath. As an SSS-level genius, he also had his own pride and couldn't let his junior look down on him.

So he gripped his sword and charged toward the other calamity beasts.

……

The daily routine at the Black Dragon Base consists of fighting against monstrous beasts.

Without a horde of calamities, one can cultivate on one's own.

Fighting against monstrous beasts every day keeps most martial artists on edge and puts them under immense psychological pressure.

After a long time, I need to return to the city to recuperate and rest.

Lin Qi felt that he was living an exceptionally fulfilling life every day, and even really enjoyed it.

You can earn money every day, become stronger, and most importantly, resist the invasion of calamity beasts and contribute to humanity.

As time went on, Lynch hunted down even more monstrous beasts.

More and more martial artists began to discuss his deeds and frequently paid attention to his ranking.

It seemed that Lin Qi's improvement also made the warriors of the Black Dragon Base feel proud.

……

In the blink of an eye, more than two months have passed, and it's now mid-November.

The entire Xia Kingdom began to enter autumn, and the weather started to cool down.

Another world, Sky Base, Sky Academy.

It remains spring-like here all year round.

"get out of class is over!"

In the Sky Dome classroom, the teacher dismissed students after the bell rang.

Amidst the commotion, the crowd headed towards the door.

"Brother Tao, you're really amazing! You've already made it into the top ten!"

"I might be able to compete for a top-three spot in the second Sky Dome Competition."

"Apart from Meng Yuxuan, Brother Tao is not afraid of anyone!"

Among the crowd, the third-year students boarded the tram together and headed towards Xingxiuju.

Among the crowd, Jiang Tao has become the new focus, and even Chu Yu, who is also an SSS-level, cannot overshadow his brilliance.

Listening to the discussion, especially when they talked about the Sky Dome Competition, Jiang Tao suddenly thought of Lin Qi and said:

"I wonder how Brother Qi is doing at the Black Dragon Base?"
