I, the only superpower on earth

"Refining Qi, planting Dharma, building foundation, true spirit, golden elixir, ascending to heaven...are these six realms the common practice realms in this world?

"But... I don't know what state that 'Yu Jing' is in now? Being able to detect the fluctuations in my consciousness means that his level of power is very high. He should be at least a true immortal, right?"

Xi Gu sat on the bluestone, flipping through the "Introduction to the Tao" and thinking in his heart.

At the same time, he also noticed some information between the lines in "Introduction to the Dao".

"This book has a very detailed description of the Qi Refining realm, including the lower and upper limits of each level; but after reaching the cultivation realm, there is only a description of power, but no specific division of realms; after the foundation is established, there are only In a word - above all, True Spirit, Golden Pill, and Dengtian simply have only one name.

"It stands to reason that the later stages of cultivation should be more complex and the levels of power should be more subtle, but the narrative in the book is completely the other way around. Is this due to the commercial considerations of the 'Tianji Yanlou', or is it because of The awe of the powerful at a high level...or is it some kind of restriction?"

Xi Gu thought thoughtfully, with a speculative light in his eyes.

He collected all the information he thought and perceived through the "Data Master", and used this information as an aid when the time was right to help him better understand the world view of this universe.

Then, his eyes flashed.

The data panel appeared in his eyes.

"

Xigu (Li Yuanshu)

Core Talent: Growth (…)

Talent traits: physical fitness grows by one-tenth every ten days, spiritual power grows by one-tenth every ten days...body grows by one-tenth every ten days.

Current strength: 400 pounds

Current spiritual perception range: thirty-one feet

…

Current practice method: "Basic Qi Refining"

The amount of vitality in the body: one.

"

The reorganized data appeared in front of Xi Gu's eyes.

Looking at the description above, he showed a relaxed smile.

"As I expected, the growth of vitality in my body has been successfully incorporated into my core talent.

"Moreover, the vitality brought by practice has also helped my physical fitness and spiritual range to make great progress, which saves several days of talent improvement time."

This is one of the reasons why Xi Gu wants to practice and try the cultivation methods of this world.

To him, although the alien energy produced by cultivation - Yuan Qi, is quite wonderful, it may not be that high in terms of intensity.

He has the talent for growth, even if the speed of exponential growth in this universe is a bit slow due to the speed of time in this universe.

However, as long as he starts to grow exponentially, he will one day be able to easily climb to the highest point of power in this universe.

Not to mention anything else, even if he stayed in this universe for forty years, the power of his body would be hundreds of thousands times more than the mass of the entire universe.

Even if you don't practice, by that time, "one punch can break all kinds of magic" will not be an incredible thing.

but……

Cultivation itself is a way to integrate yourself into the system of the universe.

Just like a bandit who accepted a commission from the imperial court and agreed to be recruited. Once you receive this order, you become a member of the "system".

Although he can develop freely outside the "system", he can have the power to resist the entire imperial government in forty years.

But wouldn’t it be faster to make progress by entering the system and utilizing its resources?

Forty years seems a bit long to Xi Gu - he has only experienced a life of more than 20 years so far... The 100,000 years of looking back are not included - because looking back It is only a "glimpse" of the present world.

"Since the vitality grows by one percent every ten days, that is to say, even if I don't practice now, I will be able to increase my vitality in seventy to eighty days, and I will be able to become a so-called one in two hundred and forty to two hundred and fifteen days. The 'Second Level of Qi Refining'... has a thousand vitality in two years - but in this way, the highest Qi Refining monk can only have ninety-nine vitality, but I have more than a thousand - isn't that? Refined one hundred levels of Qi?

"...Forget it, it doesn't matter. I believe that the universe will handle this contradiction on its own - after all, the original universe has already demonstrated it. If the law of conservation of mass and energy does not apply to me, then take back the law of conservation of mass and energy.

"And compared to physical strength, I can also speed up the growth of vitality through practice. The growth of vitality can also lead to the improvement of spiritual thoughts and physical fitness - this is even better... Maybe it took me forty years to reach the universe. Invincible, but now you can do it in thirty-five years. Time is life! over."

Summarizing the results in his mind, Xi Guzhi punched his left palm with pride.

Standing up, Xi Gu wanted to go back with a smile on his face.

But just then, he noticed something.

"That is……

"...Mist?"

Xi Gu narrowed his eyes slightly.

At some point, this bamboo forest was filled with mist.

It was evening, but the dusk sunlight didn't penetrate at all.

Looking around, there is fog everywhere.

The bamboos swayed in the gray mist. The fresh bamboo leaves turned yellow, while the bamboo body became pale and mottled.

My ears became extremely quiet.

But in this tranquility, there was some kind of strange sound.

"...Duh-tuk...doo-tuk...hiss..."

It sounded like some kind of alien footsteps, mixed with a hoarse neighing sound.

In the originally silent world, the sounds that sounded were boring and terrifying.

However, if you follow the sound, you will find nothing.

...because of the fog.

It's obviously just mist, but it's like a living, sticky substance that adheres to the surface of the body, blocking sight and hindering perception.

The environment becomes increasingly strange.

Xi Gu stood there silently.

He looked as if he was petrified, letting the slow footsteps gradually get closer and become clearer and clearer.

…

"……snort."

Looking back on what happened today, Wang Mengqing still feels a little aggrieved.

He has been a handsome boy famous all over the country since he was a child. He was good at talking and calculating. When he was seven or eight years old, he could calculate accounts faster than the guys in the store.

Although he came to Luoyan City due to the flood, he is still full of confidence in the future, not to mention that he has been blessed with immortality and can worship at Qingsong Temple?

But... after officially starting to practice, Wang Mengqing discovered that he had been left behind.

Not only that "Li Yuanshu", but also the boy named "Huang Jing" practiced faster than himself.

Zi Fu Li Qi, others can do it, but he has not done it.

Even if the annoying Huang Jing was ignored by Li Yuanshu, which made him a little angry, wouldn't Li Yuanshu be equally annoying?

...Thinking about this, Wang Mengqing became even more depressed.

"No matter what, if people can do it, I can do it too!"

Wang Mengqing supported Qingzhu, clenched his fists, and comforted himself, finally feeling better.

Raising his head, Wang Mengqing looked into the depths of the bamboo forest, but he couldn't see the end.

He couldn't help but shook his head.

Since he started, he has always encountered some unsatisfactory things. Wang Mengqing often comes to this bamboo forest to relax and wander around. He always feels that this forest is very comfortable, while other places in Qingsongguan, whether it is Viewing from the front or back, both gave him a depressing feeling.

Lifting his steps, Wang Mengqing stepped into the bamboo forest.

But his body immediately stagnated.

The next moment, the diffuse fog swept him into it.

I watched the Asian Games in the morning and was a little late.
