backyard.
In just a short while, the spiritual fruits he had just received from Xia Xuanyan were all consumed.
[Source Point]: 232.7
Looking at the panel in front of him, he nodded to himself.
Xia Xuanyan's arrival directly boosted his Source Points by more than twenty points.
This improvement is no less than the accumulation of a small sect over many years.
"A celestial grotto-heaven is truly a celestial grotto-heaven! Even the smallest bit that slips through your fingers is extraordinary!" Jiang Ning thought to himself, recalling the benefits he had received from Xia Xuanyan.
It was nothing more than a tea leaf and a plate of spiritual fruit.
However, this suddenly increased his accumulation of source points by more than 20 points.
Its value is enough to be calculated in the form of tens of thousands of taels of gold.
What should we do next?
He pondered this in his heart.
The biggest news Xia Xuanyan brought him was that Emperor Changning had fallen into a coma.
This matter involves the entire Great Xia Dynasty. If word gets out, it could make the already precarious Great Xia Dynasty even more vulnerable.
"It's not advisable to return to the capital for now!" He made the decision after only a moment's thought.
The capital city is now a huge vortex.
If he returns to the capital, Emperor Changning will have passed away, and he will inevitably be involved in the struggle for the throne.
Getting caught up in this vortex would do him no good.
Then he looked in the direction of Ji Mingyue's room.
"But if she knew, she would rush back to see her father one last time."
ponder for a moment.
"never mind!"
Jiang Ning shook his head, having already made up his mind.
Since he knew that Emperor Changning was critically ill, he could not hide it from Ji Mingyue.
If she hadn't rushed back after this incident, it would have been enough to make him regret it for the rest of his life.
"Once she wakes up, we'll let her know, and we'll set off with her back to the capital today."
"Even though the capital has become a place of trouble, with my strength, I should be able to stand firm in the capital and protect him."
He stood quietly in the courtyard, sorting out his thoughts.
He then opened his own panel.
[Source Point]: 232.7
[Divine Power]: 127/8788
[Skill]: Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique (5 times breaking the limit 27833/60000) (Traits: Whale Swallowing (Dark Purple) Dan Sea (Light Purple) Dragon Tendon (Dark Purple) Dragon Body (Dark Purple))
Looking at the numbers in the "Source Point" column, he pondered silently.
The accumulation of more than two hundred source points is a huge fortune.
Previously, he had invested his source points into auxiliary traits, such as exceptional comprehension and the unity of knowledge and action, which had proven to significantly improve his cultivation efficiency.
This is the act of sharpening a knife.
But now, with a storm brewing, going to the capital will inevitably lead to disputes and battles.
He has not yet reached the Great Perfection of the Unity Realm.
There is also a gap in accumulated experience compared to those who are superior to others in the world.
With divine power bolstering his fist, he could unleash several times the power, and his fist was indestructible.
Upon achieving the Great Perfection of Unity, divine power enveloped his entire body.
Its body is indestructible, and every move it makes can unleash tremendous power.
The power unleashed by his martial arts moves is like that of a deity.
On that day, the King of Huai'an unleashed his Great Luo Heavenly Hand, a single palm strike as powerful as a mountain.
It is powerful enough to dam rivers and mountains.
The power and prestige he displayed are something he can hardly match at present.
Others know that, among those of the same rank as the Prince of Huai'an, the Prince of Huai'an could only be considered a latecomer.
The longer one remains at the first rank of martial arts, the deeper their accumulation and the stronger their combat power.
Divine power gathers and grows daily, day after day, year after year.
He dared not underestimate those old monsters who had been around for years.
Even before we've had a chance to fight them, it's no exaggeration to say that we should take them seriously now.
Because he can't afford to lose.
He had not forgotten that the previous owners of the Hunyuan Foundation all perished along the way, which was why such an opportunity fell to him.
His gaze then wandered among the various characteristics and memories.
The Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique, being a top-tier martial art, and having already broken through its limits five times, has the greatest impact on his current strength.
The increased strength and potential new characteristics resulting from subsequent breakthroughs are undoubtedly the most cost-effective option for him.
However, the next breakthrough will require a lot of experience points to accumulate.
Then, his gaze fell on the two characteristics: dragon tendons and dragon body.
These two characteristics are directly related to his physical strength and combat power.
However, its current trait rank is already deep purple.
To improve it further, it can only be upgraded to gold.
Gold quality requires one hundred source points each time.
After a moment of contemplation, he shook his head secretly.
For the sake of simply improving combat power, these two characteristics are not the optimal solution.
His gaze swept over the Nine Netherworld Calamity Fire True Technique, over the Vajra Indestructible Body, and over the Inner Alchemy Nourishing Exercise.
He had already discovered that the higher the grade of a cultivation technique, the higher the grade of its derived attributes tend to be.
Those with higher inherent quality tend to have greater potential and stronger effects.
Just like the white-level characteristic of photographic memory.
Even when upgraded to the blue level, the effect is still not outstanding.
But through his personal experience of his exceptional comprehension, he came to understand another principle.
What's suitable is the best.
Although his innate aptitude for comprehension was not high, it was an extremely useful trait for him.
The multiple upgrades in rank were the most helpful to him during this period.
"Now, we need combat power, but we can't neglect other things either."
He thought to himself.
His gaze swept over these few skills, and then over other skills.
He didn't plan to continue accumulating the two hundred source points.
This is a critical moment.
Furthermore, the campaign to sweep away major sects and eliminate members of the Yingtian Alliance in Guangning Prefecture is still ongoing.
Selling the land, sect assets, mines, restaurants, and other fixed resources obtained from annihilating sects will take some time.
These kinds of incidents are now handled by Xie Xiaojiu and entrusted to Shen Wenyuan for assistance.
The proceeds from the subsequent sale will be used by Xie Xiaojiu to provide him with supplies for his cultivation.
Therefore, his source point can continue to improve in the coming period of time.
As he pondered, he glanced at the art of literacy, then at the Five Animal Fist, Water Sports, Wind and Thunder Steps, and Wind and Thunder Arrow Technique.
Even now, techniques like Five Animal Fist, despite numerous breakthroughs, can no longer keep up with his pace.
The same applies to water-based techniques, wind and thunder steps, and wind and thunder arrow techniques.
The support he received was already minimal.
Only the supernatural abilities derived from his breakthrough in water skills can still be of some help to him.
As for footwork and archery techniques like Wind and Thunder Step and Wind and Thunder Arrow, they are almost negligible.
No matter how fast one moves, it can never be faster than his current method of merging with space and ignoring obstacles.
With the Taixu Yin-Yang Sword, a martial art surpassing even the highest level, his movement techniques have reached the essence, going beyond simple maneuvering and shifting.
Compared to this martial art, even superior techniques like the Wind and Thunder Step pale in comparison.
However, there are a few characteristics derived from the Wind and Thunder Step that he finds important.
Shrinking the earth to an inch, the deep pool still and the wind rustling, the rhythm of space.
Each of these three points is extraordinary.
【Shrinking the Earth to an Inch (Dark Purple)】: Spatial supernatural power.
【Yuan Ting Feng Yan (Deep Blue)】: Wind-based supernatural power.
[Spatial Rhythm (Dark Blue)]: Able to sense the existence of space. One of his two supernatural abilities grants him extraordinary spatial perception.
He pondered for a moment, then glanced at it.
Of these three characteristics, the one that will be most helpful to him going forward is the ability to shrink the distance to an inch.
However, this supernatural power has already reached the deep purple level; the next step is the gold level.
He couldn't possibly invest a hundred source points into it.
Then, his gaze quickly swept towards the Five Animal Fist.
My gaze instantly locked onto several characteristics.
The five internal organs store essence; a master of boxing; the body of a bear and a tiger.
【Five Organs Store Essence (Light Blue)】: Essence is stored in the five organs, and the organs strengthen themselves.
[Grandmaster of Fist Techniques (Deep Blue)]: Possesses extraordinary talent in the art of fist techniques, enough to establish a school and be ranked as a grandmaster.
【Bear and Tiger Body (Light Blue)】: The physical body is different from ordinary people, the physique is naturally extraordinary, and it has the strength of a bear and a tiger.
These three characteristics, which he considered to be the most noteworthy characteristics derived from the Five Animal Fist, led him to abandon his investment in the Source Point in an instant.
He has not yet learned any martial arts techniques, so martial arts masters can hardly provide him with any direct benefit.
The Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Skill can be considered a fist and foot technique, but it is more accurately described as a palm technique.
The five internal organs store essence, which is a characteristic that is worth investing in over a long period of time; it is unlikely to benefit them in the short term.
The bodies of bears and tigers pale in comparison to the bodies of dragons, and are equally unworthy of investment.
His gaze swept over these skills, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
"It has to be a high-level, ultimate technique!"
His gaze fell on the Vajra Indestructible Body technique.
[Skill]: Vajra Indestructible Body (5 times breaking the limit 4133/60000) (Characteristics: Dragon Elephant Power (Dark Purple), Flawless Body (Dark Blue), Sixteen-Foot Golden Body (Light Purple), Indestructible Golden Body (Light Gold))
"The sixteen-foot golden body is also one of my current trump cards!" The thought flashed through his mind as he looked at the panel.
Then, without further hesitation, a thought suddenly occurred to him.
[Consuming 20 Source Points, the sixteen-foot golden body (light purple) can be upgraded to a sixteen-foot golden body (dark purple)]
【Nine-foot Golden Body (Deep Purple)】: A type of supernatural power, the whole body is like glazed gold, impervious to water and fire, the golden body is indestructible, and the strength can move mountains.
I glanced at the panel.
continue!
His mind raced once more.
[Consuming 100 Source Points, Nine-Foot Golden Body (Dark Purple) → Ten-Foot Golden Body (Light Gold)]
[Ten-foot Golden Body]: A type of supernatural power, the entire body is like glazed glass and gilded gold, impervious to all magic, and the golden body is immortal.
"Impervious to all laws, the golden body is immortal!"
Looking at the panel, he muttered to himself, a faint impulse rising within him to display his supernatural powers here.
They were promoted two ranks in succession, one minor rank and one major rank.
He was eager to test just how powerful this supernatural ability was.
But he knew this was not the right place.
Previously, it was a sixteen-foot golden body; once activated, its body grows to a height of sixteen feet.
This supernatural power has now been renamed the Ten-Zhang Golden Body.
He strongly suspected that once he used this supernatural power, he could unleash a body ten feet long.
A body ten feet long would be visible to countless eyes if exposed in the city.
He wouldn't easily reveal this trump card unless absolutely necessary.
"We must go to the wilderness and find a place where no one is around."
He thought to himself.
I glanced at the panel again.
[Source Point]: 112.7
Having consumed 120 Source Points, I now only have a little over 100 Source Points left on the panel.
"There's still room for improvement!" he thought to himself, "but there's no rush."
He then glanced in Ji Mingyue's direction, but there was no sound coming from her; she was clearly still asleep.
He then walked towards the kitchen, quickly cooked some meat porridge, and set off out of the city.
Fifty li outside Guangning City.
The world was frozen, a blanket of silver.
Although the snow was not thick, the continuous light snowfall over the past few days had accumulated and covered the mountains and wilderness.
Now the mountains and forests are devoid of greenery, and there is no trace of biological activity. They appear completely silent, as if he were the only person left in the world.
At this moment, Jiangning stood alone on the snow, surrounded by tall trees and mountains on all sides.
He held his breath and focused his mind; with a slight thought, his blood and qi surged within his body.
The next moment, something unexpected happened.
Billions of golden rays burst forth from the fur all over his body, instantly resembling a dazzling golden sun falling into the mountains and forests.
His muscles and bones were like a dragon's, emitting a dense, popping sound like popping beans.
Beneath the membrane, golden light bursts forth.
It felt as if molten lava was surging within my blood.
His original height of nearly eight feet expanded rapidly under the shimmering golden light, and in an instant, his height exceeded ten feet.
Then it was 1.5 zhang, and then it reached 2 zhang.
Its towering figure, standing two zhang tall in the snow, was comparable in height to the shorter trees.
"This is not the limit!" he thought to himself.
Then, the expanding body, which had stopped expanding, continued to expand rapidly.
Three zhang, five zhang, ten zhang.
The ten-zhang-tall golden statue stands majestically.
At this moment, Jiangning appears as if it were cast from immortal divine metal.
On the surface of the skin, there flows a mysterious, shimmering gold luster.
Layers of light emanated from his body, giving him a solemn and dignified appearance, like a great being who had stepped out of mythology.
Compared to his size, only a few trees around him were level with him; most of the others were only up to his waist.
He lowered his head slightly, looking down at the snow-covered hills and withered trees that had shrunk to a tiny size, and a sense of immense power, as if he were in control of the universe, welled up within him.
He tried to raise his right arm.
Light and agile, without any sense of sluggishness or heaviness.
Boom—
A simple, quick arm raise caused the surrounding airflow to swirl violently, creating a visible white wave of air.
The snow, which covered an area of several dozen feet, was blown away, revealing the frozen black soil underneath.
Clenching your fist with all five fingers, the air is compressed rapidly in your palm, creating a muffled boom, as if you are holding a ball of thunder in your hand.
"This power!" He felt the terrifying power surging within him like a mighty river, far surpassing any previous moment. "It's several times stronger than when I had my sixteen-foot golden body!!"
With another thought, his ten-foot-tall golden body slightly bent his knees and pulled his right fist back.
Without using any true essence or drawing upon any divine power, only the purest and most primal physical strength was employed.
A punch was thrown.
Boom-! ! !
This punch was like a thunderclap.
The air in front of the fist was instantly compressed into a solid wall.
The next instant, it was completely shattered by an unparalleled force, and then exploded.
A transparent fist-shaped energy, visible to the naked eye and distorting the light, shot out and slammed straight into a low stone mountain dozens of feet away.
Wherever the fist passed, the earth seemed to be turned over by an invisible plow, leaving a straight ravine several feet deep and more than ten feet wide.
The permafrost on both sides of the gully cracked, and the accumulated snow evaporated!
The next instant.
The rocky mountain, dozens of feet away, suddenly caved inward, forming a huge, clearly visible fist-shaped imprint.
Immediately afterwards, countless spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly from the center of the fist imprint.
Rumble—!!!
The entire stone mountain, over twenty feet high, collapsed and split apart with a deafening roar.
Countless pebbles rained down in all directions, and dust mixed with snowflakes rose into the sky, forming a gray-white mushroom cloud that lingered for a long time.
