Chapter 67 Level Three Breathing Technique

A moment later, in front of the office of the Internal Affairs Section of the Wu'an Bureau in Yuquan District.

"Knock knock knock—"

Jiang Heng knocked on the office door.

"Please come in."

Jiang Heng pushed open the door and entered. Liao Junhui was sitting behind his desk and looked up at Jiang Heng.

"Team Leader Jiang is here! I'm coming right now—"

Liao Junhui lowered his head to approve Jiang Heng's merits, but then he sensed that something was wrong.

He paused for a moment, then looked up again, staring at Jiang Heng with a somewhat bewildered expression: "You're at level three?"

Jiang Heng nodded slightly: "I was lucky, I broke through—."

Liao Junhui was speechless for a moment. He vaguely remembered that two months ago, when Jiang Heng broke through to the second level of physical body cultivation,

That's what they say too.

"Looks like you're getting promoted to squad leader. Your accumulated merits must be close to 50,000 by now, right?"

Liao Junhui asked casually, and then searched for Jiang Heng's information on the computer.

Jiang Heng nodded: "Yes, with this merit, it'll be enough for a promotion."

"Okay, I'll transfer the merit points to you right away."

Liao Junhui then operated the computer for a moment and transferred a total of 41,500 merit points to Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng took out his phone and looked down at the account on his screen.

[Merit Points: 46250]

[Cumulative Merit Points: 89850]

This time, the merit points, plus the 6,000 merit points that were not used up before, total forty-six thousand two hundred and fifty merit points.

In the Wuan Bureau's online store, the most common professional-grade martial arts skills cost between 20,000 and 30,000 merit points.

Even the "Three Forms of the Broken Ape" from the King Kong series only requires 36,000 merit points.

Jiang Heng nodded and said, "Section Chief Liao, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

"Okay, you go ahead and do your work."

Liao Junhui watched Jiang Heng's retreating figure as he walked out of the office, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Eight years ago, he was the leader of the fifth group of the first detachment, and he was about to break through the third level of physical strength and be promoted to the level of detachment leader.

However, due to his injury, he had to step down to a secondary position and eventually became the head of the Internal Affairs Section.

Watching Jiang Heng break through to the third level of physical body cultivation, it was as if I saw my younger self, with unfulfilled aspirations—

"A new generation surpasses the old—"

Liao Junhui shook his head, trying to dispel the memories in his heart.

A vision is just a vision. Actually, there's nothing wrong with stepping down to the second line. At least it's safe and stable, and you don't have to fight your life on the front line.

Over the years, he has seen too many members of the Armed Police Force who risked their lives on the front lines, only to lose limbs or even their lives, and he has long since lost interest in them.

Moreover, recently, tensions between the bureau and Yuquan District have been escalating.

The Hongmen has been entrenched in Yuquan District for fifty years, and its members are incredibly powerful. If a conflict were to erupt, who knows how many people would die?

Liao Junhui put his mind at ease, turned his attention back to the computer in front of him, and continued working.

Jiang Heng walked out of the Internal Affairs Department office and went first to the director's office on the top floor.

"Chief."

As Jiang Heng entered the office, his aura as a level three physical being was unmistakably revealed.

"Little Jiang, you've broken through?" A look of surprise appeared on Jiang Yunliang's face.

Jiang Heng nodded: "Yes, I was lucky enough to break through, and I just received the merits from the first two missions, bringing my total merits to over 50,000. You see—"

Jiang Yunliang snapped out of his daze: "Okay, no problem. I'll apply to the General Administration for team establishment for you in a bit."

"Okay, thank you, Director."

"It's nothing. I didn't expect you to break through to the third level of physical body so quickly."

A hint of regret suddenly appeared on Jiang Yunliang's face.

"Sigh, if I had known you were this talented, I shouldn't have been in such a hurry to attack Hongmen in Yuquan District—"

Jiang Heng was slightly taken aback. What did this mean?

Jiang Yunliang patted Jiang Heng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "With your talent, you might break through to the fourth level of physical body in a few years."

"You can just lead your team and crush Pang Long to death; I won't need to waste my time with all this."

Jiang Heng was slightly speechless; Director Jiang's thinking was a bit too far ahead.

However, it shouldn't take him that long if it's only a few years.

At this moment, Jiang Yunliang suddenly remembered something and frowned, saying:

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. In the past two days, the bureau has completely wiped out the Hongmen forces in the southwest of Yuquan. It seems that Pang Long has already made a move. You've only just stepped into the third level of physical body cultivation, and you killed a Hongmen Red Stick before, so you might be targeted by them."

You need to be careful. It would be safer for you to move to the Wu'an Bureau area.

Jiang Heng's gaze sharpened slightly, and he slowly nodded: "Don't worry, Director, I'll be careful."

Is Hongmen about to make a move?

"Okay, that's settled then. You can go find Bai Yong to learn the Level 3 Breathing Technique first."

"Okay," Jiang Heng nodded immediately.

His strong desire to be promoted to the rank of squad leader was mainly to obtain the Level 3 Breathing Technique.

The third-level breathing technique will drastically change a martial artist's fighting style.

Jiang Heng took his leave and left the director's office.

He then contacted Bai Yong, the captain of the reserve team, and went to the armory to learn the Level 3 Candlelight Breathing Technique.

Inside the arsenal.

Bai Yong took a dark red syringe from the metal cabinet and injected it into Jiang Heng's arm vein.

He calmly explained to Jiang Heng, "The biggest difference between the third-level breathing method and the second-level breathing method is that the third-level breathing method can integrate the special energy between heaven and earth into one's own energy sense."

Jiang Heng nodded slightly; he had heard about it before.

Legend has it that the energy of this world comes from behind the Heavenly Gate and arrives on Earth after the Heavenly Gate opens.

Martial artists at the first and second levels of physical body can only use these auras to stimulate the strengthening of their own cells. However, starting from the third level of physical body, they can exert a variety of special effects by combining their own qi sensation and the special aura guided by their breathing techniques.

Pang Long, nicknamed "Stone Buddha" because his arms resembled those at Hongmen.

It was because his Qi sensation combined with "stone breath" that he strengthened his entire body's skin membrane to the point that it was as hard as a rock, making it difficult for even cannonballs to penetrate.

The breathing techniques in the Candlelight series have a similar effect.

The third-tier Blood Burning technique not only causes the blood in the body to boil, but also combines the internal energy with the flames, unleashing a power as fierce as flames.

After Bai Yong finished injecting the medicine, he put the syringe into the recycling bin.

He wasn't too surprised that Jiang Heng could break through to the third level of physical body in such a short time; he was just numb to it.

In fact, ever since Bai Yong saw that Jiang Heng had bought two bottles of Crimson Flame Golden Body Ointment in just half a month,

He could then deduce just how terrifying Jiang Heng's cultivation speed was. Jiang Heng thought for a moment and then asked, "Captain Bai, does the Martial Security Bureau's shop have anything else that can increase the cultivation speed of the Candlelight Breathing Technique?"

With Jiang Heng's continuous cultivation over the past few months, his resistance to ordinary candlelight disease has become very high.

In addition, he has now broken through to the third level of physical body.

It's probably very difficult to contract severe Candlelight Disease through mere cultivation alone—

Bai Yong said speechlessly, "Even the Crimson Flame Golden Body Ointment isn't enough for you, is it?"

He thought for a moment, then said, "Yes, we do have some, but they're not cheap—"
