Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Family Revitalization

Chapter 5 Soaring Strength

Looking at the rewards.

Shen Ping's pupils suddenly contracted.

The number of offspring is very important for the development of the family, so he had expected the rewards for swordsmanship and movement techniques. However, he did not expect that the birth of a bloodline would also be rewarded with a cultivation resource such as dragon blood.

This was definitely a pleasant surprise.

After realizing what had happened...

His face couldn't help but show excitement again.

The appearance of dragon blood means that the rewards are not limited to swordsmanship and movement techniques, which is undoubtedly crucial. After all, swordsmanship and movement techniques alone can only improve Shen Ping's combat power on the existing basis, but cultivation resources can greatly improve his physical qualities in a short period of time, causing his overall strength to skyrocket.

Like the Dragon Blood this time, after a martial artist uses it, their physical attributes will double. The lower the strength before using it, the greater the increase will be.

Since August of last year, Shen Ping has been training every day, and his punching power has increased to about 18000 kg. If he uses dragon blood, it may reach more than 36000 kg. This is the physical quality of a high-level warrior. When combined with the fourth level of the Nine-fold Thunder Blade, his combat power will truly enter the level of a war god.

Thinking of this.

He longed to return to the villa immediately to use the dragon's blood and see how effective it was, but he quickly suppressed the urge. His wife had just given birth and needed careful care; he couldn't leave her at a time like this.

Seeing the expression on Shen Ping's face, Li Yuewei, who was lying in the hospital bed, smiled even more broadly. She could tell that her husband was genuinely happy.

I stayed in the hospital for half a month after giving birth.

Shen Ping and his wife completed the discharge procedures.

Back at the villa in the community.

He had his father-in-law and mother-in-law move over from their place, mainly to make it easier for them to take care of his wife and children.

The once quiet villa suddenly became lively, with the loud cries of children heard every day. At first, Shen Ping was not used to it, and the noise always distracted him from his cultivation, but he gradually got used to it.

I stayed at home for six whole days.

He had just started claiming the rewards from the virtual frame.

brush.

A test tube filled with golden liquid immediately appeared in his palm. The test tube was stopped with a stopper, and the liquid filled more than one-third of its volume.

Shen Ping knew how to use the dragon blood; all he had to do was apply the golden liquid to one part of his body. The golden liquid was very viscous, so he lay flat on the ground, pulled out the stopper, and applied it to his chest.

Soon.

The area where it was applied started to heat up; this is the dragon's blood taking effect.

Just like when Luo Feng used it, as waves of heat surged into his body from his chest and flowed through his limbs and bones, a bone-deep pain instantly spread throughout his body. In an instant, Shen Ping's muscles twitched, his heartbeat quickened, and his blood flow accelerated rapidly.

Until he fell into a coma.

This effect is still ongoing.

At the same time, his bones, muscles, and internal organs were undergoing crazy changes. Genes deep within his cells broke down and recombined, making his muscles stronger, his internal organs more resilient, and his bones more robust.

Even the neurons in his brain are undergoing transformation.

I don't know how much time has passed.

When Shen Ping woke up from his coma, he saw the bronze color on his skin and knew that he had successfully used the dragon blood. He could easily feel the power bursting from his muscles as he clenched his fists.

"Let's test your punching power."

He got up and quickly took a cold shower, then couldn't wait to go to the Extreme Martial Arts Hall in the community. At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, there were very few people in the martial arts hall, with only a few martial artists training in the training room.

Walk up to the punching power tester.

He arched his body and then slammed his fist into the test target.

boom.

After the punching pad was pressed down heavily, the testing instrument displayed the number 35710kg when it returned to its original state.

See here.

He smiled and threw another punch. After four or five punches in a row, his average punching power exceeded 36,000.

"As expected of dragon blood!"

Shen Ping was overjoyed. Now, his fist strength alone had reached the level of a high-level warrior, catching up with Captain Qin Shan of the Gale Squad. Then he tested his speed and nerve reaction speed, both of which reached the level of a high-level warrior.

"Haha, from this day forward I am a high-ranking general!"

"If I unleash the full power of the Ninefold Thunder Blade Fist, I will become a novice War God!"

Having transmigrated to the Swallowed Star world for so many years, he has finally reached the level of a God of War in terms of combat power. There are no more than four thousand Gods of War in the world, which means that Shen Ping's strength ranks among the top three thousand in the world.

Even though reality had already worn down his edges, he couldn't help but burst into laughter at this moment.

After a while.

His expression returned to normal.

Activate the cheat code.

He knew this day would eventually come, but for him, the God of War was no longer the goal he was pursuing, but rather the starting point.

"The next step is to break through to the level beyond the God of War, that is, the planetary level, within five years!"

Shen Ping clenched his fists and secretly set himself a small goal.

Only planetary-level units can truly have a voice.

……

During dinner in the evening.

When Li Yuewei talked about the hot pot restaurant, she said, "My cousin has been working in a hot pot restaurant for quite a while. Yesterday, he came to visit his child and mentioned that he wanted to try opening and running his own hot pot restaurant."

Shen Ping looked up. "What's wrong? Did you feel uncomfortable at the hot pot restaurant?"

The father-in-law laughed and said, "Li Qi is a strong-willed boy. He wants to buy an apartment in a neighborhood near Nanyuan Community on his own."

The mother-in-law chimed in, "The houses in the nearby neighborhoods are expensive. How could he possibly afford one with his meager salary? That's why he had this idea."

Shen Ping remained silent and continued eating.

Housing prices in the base city are very high. Even the low-rent housing is not cheap. Most college graduates rent. Those who can afford to buy a house on their own come from families that are not well-off.

Li Yuewei added, "He's just too ambitious. He thinks his business has been doing well for a year, so he's thinking of starting his own business. What if he loses money? He won't even be able to pay back the start-up capital he took out a loan for!"

Having broken through to the level of War God, Shen Ping was in an exceptionally good mood. So he said in a slightly relaxed tone, "Young people should always go out and explore. Since Li Qi has this idea, let him give it a try. Don't take out a bank loan for the start-up capital. I will provide it. But this money will be considered as an investment. If we make a profit in the future, we will give him a share of the profits every year."

No matter how easily he earns money, it's all earned through his own hard work; it didn't come from nowhere, and it's not something given away for free.

The father-in-law and mother-in-law tried to persuade him for a while, but when they couldn't convince him, they readily agreed and praised Shen Ping.

On the bed in the bedroom.

"Honey, the doctor specifically instructed that we can only have sex after you've rested at home for two months."

"I didn't say anything about sex; we can use other places too."

Shen Ping's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Are you coming or not?"

"Hehe, then I'll trouble you, my wife."

More than half an hour passed.

Li Yuewei's mouth was almost numb before she finally managed to help Shen Ping. She couldn't help but complain, "Why did it take so long?"

Shen Ping scratched his head. "Wife, you have to be understanding. We haven't had sex for almost a year. Besides, I'm a martial artist, so I'm bound to have plenty of energy."

Li Yuewei didn't refute, "Why don't you listen to me and find someone outside, honey? I'm not testing you, I've really thought about it. In the HR Alliance Mall, many of those martial artists often seek companionship, I understand."

Shen Ping hadn't expected his wife to be so understanding, but he didn't fall for it. Instead, he seized the opportunity to say, "Wife, instead of looking outside, why don't we go to the wilderness to release our energy?"
