172: Three days, huge harvest!

Three days later, in the early morning, the sun was about to rise but hadn't yet.

Yang Dian took off his upper body clothes, his feet submerged in the seawater, and his entire body's Qi and blood surged, transforming into a wolf smoke that shot up thirty-three zhang into the sky.

Just as the morning sun revealed a tiny tip from the sea, and seagulls cried out against the golden sea, Yang Dian's surging Qi and blood abruptly paused, as if breaking through some kind of Bottleneck.

The vast Qi and blood suddenly rolled back, then surged out again with even greater ferocity, transforming into a wolf smoke that soared sixty-six zhang into the sky!

On the beach behind him, early-rising members of the Yang clan who were Cultivating felt the aura that suddenly erupted from Yang Dian, instinctively taking a few steps back. They watched Yang Dian's retreating figure and began to whisper.

"Is Dian Zi having a Breakthrough?"

"It must be a Breakthrough. That wolf smoke was originally only about a hundred meters high and not as thick. Now it's suddenly twice as thick and high. What else could it be but a Breakthrough in Realm?"

"He should have officially reached the fifth Realm of Martial Arts, as announced by the authorities, the Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke Realm, right?"

"Tsk, his Qi and blood soaring two hundred meters high—that shouldn't be weak across the entire Huaxia, right? Most importantly, Dian Zi is only 18 years old! Our branch is probably going to produce a great figure!"

"I don't know how he Cultivates. Just two nights ago, the Qi and blood smoke from his body could only rise about twenty meters."

"You don't know? I do know."

"Lame, what do you know? Quickly tell me!"

"I'll treat you to drinks tonight, don't keep us in suspense!"

Yang Que (qu è), who was called 'Lame' despite his perfectly fine legs, enjoyed the crowd's adulation for a moment, then said:

"You should know that my eyes have been good since I was a child; I can see far and clearly."

"So, while you didn't pay attention, I could see Dian Zi occasionally pull out an iron can and then take something from it to put into his mouth."

"The can probably contains some Heaven And Earth Treasure."

"Really? Dian Zi has never been out, where would he get so many Heaven And Earth Treasure? Did the clan give them to him?"

Yang Que scoffed:

"The clan gave them to him."

"Don't you know how much money and how many resources the clan has?"

"At Dian Zi's speed, he must have eaten at least three hundred, if not five hundred, rare treasure."

"If you say the clan gave Dian Zi three or five rare treasure, I'd believe it."

"But to say the clan gave him three to five hundred rare treasure, do you believe that yourselves?"

"Lame, you're speaking as if it's true, but Dian Zi is currently Cultivating shirtless over there. Where would he pull out the can you're talking about?"

"Right, Lame, you almost fooled us. Where's the can?"

Yang Que pointed to the black bracelet on Yang Dian's left wrist:

"See that bracelet on Dian Zi's hand? You know he's never liked wearing bracelets or necklaces since he was a child."

"But why is he wearing it now?"

"Why?"

"I guess that bracelet is the legendary storage equipment, probably given to Dian Zi by the organization."

"As for the Heaven And Earth Treasure Dian Zi used, they were probably rewards from the organization as well."

"Didn't the news say a couple of days ago that Dian Zi caught a few foreign drug dealers? That's probably the reward..."

...Before the waves.

As the absolute core in everyone's mouths, Yang Dian, who had finished digesting the last portion of heaven and earth treasures, also opened his eyes amidst the sound of waves crashing, the cries of seabirds, and the whispers of his clansmen.

He slightly flexed his muscles to shake off his fatigue, feeling the surging, violent Qi and blood within his body. Yang Dian let out a satisfied breath.

"Hoo."

"So refreshing~"

He took two steps, and as his bone joints audibly clicked, the vast Qi and blood also returned to Yang Dian's body like swallows returning to their nest.

Clenching his fists, feeling the power that seemed capable of punching through the Earth, Yang Dian exhaled a long breath again.

"The power has increased a bit too much at once."

"Indeed, after eating nearly 500 portions of rare treasure at once, how could the increased power not be substantial?"

He stood in place and performed a set of Hun Yuan Strength boxing stances.

By the time the boxing stances were finished, the commotion that had caused sea waves and sand to scatter whenever Yang Dian moved slightly had gradually subsided, eventually becoming the same as usual.

The specially crafted Hun Yuan Strength was just that outrageous.

Others might need weeks, months, or even years to adapt to such a sudden surge in power.

But he only needed to perform one set of boxing stances.

Within this single set of 72 Hun Yuan Strength stances, the uncontrolled power was once again integrated by Yang Dian, becoming unified and completely under his control.

He opened the five fingers of his right hand, then curled them into a fist.

The next moment, Yang Dian raised his right hand, which had already become a blur, and punched fiercely towards the sea surface.

"Bang~"

A dull sonic boom echoed in front of Yang Dian.

Noticing the faint barrier when he threw his punch, and seeing the depression in the sea surface caused by the force of his fist, Yang Dian smirked.

"Just a little more effort, and I'll be able to throw a supersonic punch."

Stretching towards the sun, which had already climbed halfway out of the sea, Yang Dian then looked back at his clansmen who had lined up on the beach and begun their Martial Arts practice.

"Perhaps letting them practice Martial Arts Calisthenics first, and once they master it to the point where their fists move with their will, then letting them Cultivate that one move, 'Gluttonous Eating Qi', would also be a good choice."

After thinking for a while, Yang Dian shook his head again.

Martial Arts Calisthenics, in essence, was still a Cultivation Technique for the general public.

His clansmen not only received his personal guidance but also took three blood-replenishing pills daily to strengthen their bodies, making them far stronger than ordinary people.

There was no need for them to learn Martial Arts Calisthenics like ordinary people.

The only advantage of Martial Arts Calisthenics was its strong universality.

Thinking of this, Yang Dian's thoughts returned to himself.

"The heaven and earth treasures are all eaten, it's time to check the gains."

Perhaps it was because the 'special energy' contained in the heaven and earth treasures was extracted by the innate talent to the dwelling place of the Soul.

Therefore, the improvement after consuming 465 types of heaven and earth treasures was not as great as Yang Dian had imagined.

Converted into energy, all the Martial Arts combined only increased by less than 7000 points of energy.

Of course, one cannot ignore the facts when doing things.

The fact was that in addition to the improvements already gained, the 465 portions of rare treasure he consumed also brought him 121,000 points of energy.

What does that mean?

To fully develop 3 special abilities for five Cultivation Technique—Grass Tread Flight, Iron Shirt, Hun Yuan Strength, Star Gazing Art, and Heaven and Man Unity Skill—would only require less than 110,000 energy!

He could completely choose to immediately start Cultivating, Breakthrough into the Qi Blood Dragon Transformation Realm, and become a Martial Arts Grandmaster!
