Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 267 The End of Five Years
"Pure physical strength is... 6,526 tons. Compared to before, it has improved, but it is not a qualitative change."

Xu Feng meticulously sensed all the muscle cells in his body and accurately calculated his current strength.

"However, the purpose of tempering the body with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique is to allow the body to hold more true essence. The key is to further increase the amount of true essence that the body can hold. The true essence of the thirteenth level Prajna Technique is about five times that of the twelfth level. Taking into account the benefits from all aspects, the power of the Tathagata Palm has increased by about ten times compared to when it was used to obtain the Supreme Imperial Arms."

Directly consuming true essence to amplify one's own power has the lowest upper limit in terms of utilizing true essence, and its efficiency is also very poor.

The Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill is an external martial art that consumes true essence to amplify the power of fists and feet. After mastering the thirteen levels of the Dragon Elephant Skill, one can unleash the full potential of its fist and leg techniques.

However, those moves are not even in the same league as moves like the "Buddha's Palm," which skillfully utilizes true energy.

If Xu Feng, with his thirteen layers of Dragon Elephant True Essence, were to unleash the full power of the Tathagata Palm, he could strike the ground with a single blow that stretched for about ten miles, easily flattening cities, destroying hills, and cutting off rivers.

The eighth and ninth forms of the Divine Palm can also infuse this true essence, which is like a large-scale nuclear explosion, into extremely small targets.

This makes the Divine Palm far more lethal to a single target than a nuclear bomb.

Moreover, the strength of the "Buddha's Palm" does not lie in its 'physical attack'.

The essence of palm techniques lies in attacking with Buddha's light.

Xu Feng knew very well that the true energy of the thirteenth level of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill was not the upper limit of the Tathagata Palm at all; to be precise, it was still very, very far from the upper limit of the palm.

The power of the Divine Palm is determined by two parts.

One is the user's Buddhist spiritual attainment.

The second is the amount of internal force or true energy.

In theory, one can enhance their A-level internal energy from the main god and then receive the empowerment to strengthen the "Buddha's Palm" and successfully unleash this skill.

However, the power of the "Buddha's Palm" that was used with difficulty was less than one ten-thousandth of Xu Feng's palm power at this moment.

"Next, we will condense the thirteen layers of Dragon Elephant True Essence into the Dharma form of the Bodhi Dharma Proving Divine Skill according to the cultivation method... If the Bodhi Dharma Proving Divine Skill is cultivated to the top level, the power of the Tathagata Palm can probably be increased by one or two more levels!"

Xu Feng focused his mind, adjusted his posture, and began to visualize the wrathful form of the Immovable King, who had been bestowed with divine empowerment.

A few hours later.

The ferocious-looking image of Acala (Fudō Myō-ō) rose from behind him.

The wrathful image of the Wisdom King grew larger and larger until it reached a height of over eighty meters before stopping.

"After the true essence of the thirteenth layer of Dragon Elephant is transformed into the 'Bodhi Proof Divine Skill,' it is indeed the fourth layer... However, the various abilities of the perfected Dragon Elephant have given me the accumulation to reach the fourth perfect layer of Bodhi Proof. I only need to cultivate hard for another one to two months to cultivate the 'Bodhi Proof Divine Skill' to the fourth perfect layer!"

Hsu Feng wore a delighted smile.

If he could encounter an opportunity in the world of Akame ga Kill!, he might even be able to cultivate the Bodhi Proof Divine Art to the fifth level before the end of this round of exchange time... The division of the Bodhi Proof Divine Art's levels is not as detailed as the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art. After entering the fifth level, there is still a long way to go, but cultivating all five levels will bring about a qualitative change in his cultivation speed, and the growth rate of the five roots and five forces will be greatly increased.

"The radius of the Swallow Domain has been increased from fifty meters to eighty-five meters..."

"The influence of the Swallow Fruit on the advancement of cultivation realm is indeed very significant! As for absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through the Swallow Domain... the efficiency is not high. At present, this idea is not very helpful, but this trend is enough to prove that my guess is correct!"

In Xu Feng's view, the 35-meter increase in the Swallow-Swallow Fruit realm is a minor qualitative change.

When its own will does not exert influence on the awakened domain, its effective range is a sphere, with a radius that only increases by thirty-five meters, but its volume increases by about five times.

If Xu Feng were to interfere with the shape of the Swallow Domain, the current awakened Swallow Fruit domain could extend to 500 meters... Within this range, the life and death of the weak would be decided by his mere thought.

A skyscraper hundreds of meters tall can be turned into a pile of construction waste in the blink of an eye.

With enough materials, he can build space carriers and small spaceships in the blink of an eye... As Xu Feng acquires more technological knowledge, the creations he can build will become even more powerful.

In terms of defense, attacks that lack sufficient depth will be instantly reshaped upon entering this area.

An attack of insufficient magnitude cannot penetrate hundreds of meters of material.

To celebrate this breakthrough and to test the engineering capabilities of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit, Xu Feng spent an hour excavating an artificial canal 200 meters wide, 50 meters deep, and 1,200 kilometers long in the southern part of the empire shortly after the breakthrough.

After that, he spent several more days building an artificial mountain that could influence the climate, making the climate in this region of the empire more stable.

With one month remaining in the 1800-day period for this exchange, Xu Feng began constructing the control center for the High Throne.

This didn't waste too much of his time.

In the six months or so after mastering the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill", he very smoothly advanced the "Bodhi Dharma Enlightenment Divine Skill" to the fourth level of perfection.

As he improved his "Bodhi Enlightenment Divine Skill," the awakening realm of the Swallow Fruit also slowly increased.

At this point, the radius of the awakened domain had grown to over ninety meters.

During this period, the greatest improvement in the Awakening Domain was not in its size, but in the depth of its influence... The amount of matter that could be affected by the devouring, digestion, and reshaping within the domain was increasing, the speed was getting faster, and the level of refinement in the transformation was also getting higher.

The development of absorbing the energy of heaven and earth through the Swallowing Domain has also been very successful.

Xu Feng also developed a technique to assist others in their cultivation based on that idea... The Devouring Domain forcibly binds the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which can increase the concentration of spiritual energy within the domain by dozens of times. People with sufficient talent can make rapid progress in their cultivation in the rich spiritual area.

In theory, the smaller the area where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is concentrated, the stronger the auxiliary effect will be.

For example... compress it to the scope of one person.

So far, only Tifa has enjoyed this acceleration effect... Unfortunately, even with such an accelerator, it would still take her a long time to cultivate the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique to the final levels. With the assistance of the larger and more precise Swallow Domain, Xu Feng even had ample time to prepare two control centers for the Supreme Throne.

There are two new control centers. One is a control talisman drawn by Xu Feng himself using the energy core of the super dangerous species Destagur and the Buddha's golden blood. If there are no accidents, the control time of this talisman can last for hundreds of years. The other is the Imperial Arm Susanoo contributed by Najenda. After being modified by Xu Feng, this Imperial Arm can be connected to the energy circuit of the High Throne through the 'Magatama'. After the first control method fails, it can also control the Supreme Imperial Arm for a period of time.

Xu Feng was very worried that the main god might affect his 'farming'. If the main god maliciously sent several reincarnation teams to interfere with the development of the Akame ga Kill! world when he left this world, it would be very troublesome for him to return to this world.

Moreover, the East Sea Dragon and the core will of the Supreme Imperial Arms mentioned in the Akame ga Kill! storyline have mysteriously disappeared from this planet, and there is no trace of them in the surrounding starry sky... This makes Xu Feng worry that these mysteriously disappeared beings might be hiding in an unknown advanced area, and might return to the Akame ga Kill! world in the future.

The second control mode he prepared was to guard against unexpected events.

With Susanoo at its highest level, and these two Imperial Arms combined... even if Esdeath were to be resurrected, she would still suffer.

If a Reincarnation Team like the Arctic Continent Team enters the world of Akame ga Kill!, no matter how many come, they will all die! Even if a Reincarnation Team with strength comparable to the East Blue Team not long ago enters the current stage of the Akame ga Kill! world, they shouldn't expect to have an easy time; there will inevitably be huge casualties.

Five years is not a long time, but Xu Feng has improved a lot in all aspects.

He was fighting five years ago, and he's fighting now; if he can't last even a second, he'll die.

In the final days before returning to the Main God Space, Xu Feng began developing various items targeting spirit creatures and exploring ways to make the members of the East Sea team stronger.

After his cultivation level improved, his ability to create talismans and magical artifacts increased significantly.

The Five Thunder Evil-Repelling Talisman he drew at this time was vastly different from the one he drew when he first learned how to use it from "Mr. Vampire".

When drawing these talismans, Xu Feng did not use his own golden blood—his teammates from the East Sea team were not worthy of such a 'great' sacrifice from him—but he did use high-grade materials from the world of Akame ga Kill!, which greatly enhanced the power of the talismans.

Besides jade talismans, he had prepared everything he needed, including swords, armor, logistics, and medical supplies.

Xu Feng was very envious of the reward points his teammates had received. He would do anything to get those reward points and side quests, but he didn't like to use violent methods.

When he can gently extract reward points from his teammates, he will put on his 'East Sea Team Captain' mask.

However, this time the gains were far too great!
It's highly unlikely that he'll reap such a huge reward in the next few or even a dozen games—he might be able to get similar reward points through team battles in the future, but Xu Feng felt that he had gone too far in the team battles in Akatsuki.

This result, where the East China Sea team survived without losing a single member and wiped out the entire opposing team, will likely make things extremely difficult for the East China Sea team!

He will test this in the next horror movie, "The Curse of the Ghost Woman"... If the next one is not too difficult, he will not hold back when he encounters other reincarnation teams in the future, and will wipe them out as soon as possible; but if the next one is extremely difficult, so difficult that he has to rely on the Rebirth Cross to return to the God Space, he will consider wiping out all the veterans of the enemy team in the future team battle, and leaving a few newcomer 'seeds' who are destined to be eliminated by the God with negative points.

The East China Sea team received over 200,000 reward points in this team battle, which is an enormous amount. Most reincarnators never see so many reward points from the moment they enter the reincarnation world until their death.

Xu Feng has already considered most of the more than 200,000 reward points as his own.

If a teammate is sensible enough to hand over reward points to buy the equipment he crafts, then naturally everyone benefits.

If there are some teammates who don't know their place... then he wouldn't mind tearing off the mask of 'East Sea Team Captain'.

By the end of this round of return time, Xu Feng had created a large number of equipment items targeting spirit creatures.

If the monsters in the next "Ghostly Curse" are just ordinary ghosts, they will definitely be easily defeated by these powerful anti-spirit equipment.

In addition, the renovation plans for Park Chang-ho and Sanada Yoichi have also been finalized.

In his plan, Sanada Haruno's potential was not high... His bloodline had been modified too thoroughly, making him a non-human being, and unlocking his genetic lock was extremely difficult.

However, Park Chang-ho will most likely become very strong after the modification.

If he is talented enough, he might even have a chance to reach Tatsumi's final level in the anime.

Xu Feng felt that possibility was not small... This South Korean private unlocked his gene lock in the second time he entered the cycle of reincarnation. To be precise, his first experience in the cycle of reincarnation was equivalent to 'playing around', and the second time was his first real experience in the cycle of reincarnation.

Putting aside other aspects, this private's talent for unlocking gene locks is truly exceptional; such a talent as a 'natural unlocking physique' cannot be too bad.

The main god space.

Xu Feng's time span was a full five years, but in the eyes of ordinary members of the East China Sea team, Xu Feng had only just disappeared.

It disappears in an instant, and reappears in an instant.

But when Xu Feng returned from the cycle of reincarnation, the East China Sea team members clearly sensed that... there was a huge difference between the captain of the previous moment and the captain of this moment. His strength, temperament, wisdom... had all changed a lot.

The captain must have gained immense benefits from returning to the cycle of reincarnation!
"My gains in the world of Akame ga Kill!" Xu Feng looked at the East Blue Team members with a smile. "I've gotten everything I needed. Park Chang-ho, this is your Demon Possession. You and I will exchange for two months later, and I will help you develop this Imperial Arm. Oh, and Sanada Haruyuki, you're coming back with me too. We'll strengthen yourselves together."

"Also... before the next round of returns, let's deal with the upcoming exchange issues."

"When we were discussing how to redeem the tickets, we had to consider the next one... 'The Cursed Ghost' is very difficult. The ghost in it even showed the ability to reincarnate through time. I could even die in that horror movie! So, we must prepare specifically for it!"

Xu Feng used his true energy to control nine jade talismans to float to his teammates' side.

"These are talismans I created after five years of training in the world of Akame ga Kill!. Their effect is to release lightning and form a lightning shield around the body. The main material of these Five Thunder Evil-Repelling Talismans is the core of a top-grade dangerous species from the world of Akame ga Kill!, and I also used my blood to mix the talisman ink."

Xu Feng gently pricked his finger and squeezed out a drop of golden blood: "After cultivating my internal energy to its peak, my blood also contains a lot of power, no less than the high-grade materials from the main god."

"As for the strength of this Five Thunder Evil-Repelling Jade Talisman, it is no less than the C-grade spirit-protecting items from the Main God in terms of protecting against spirit creatures. At least in terms of energy level, it is several times stronger than the C-grade Sun Golden Wheel that I exchanged before. Moreover, this is not the limit of the items I can create. Give me enough time, and I can draw an even stronger talisman."

"Therefore, I think that in order to get better and more items with the same reward points and side quests... we should concentrate all the reward points of the whole team on exchanging them, give me enough time to exchange them, and let me have more time to cultivate."
