Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 107: First Grade Qi Refining

Seeing Jiang Feng was unharmed.

Han Dong secretly let out a sigh of relief.

She said to Blood Skull, "Let him go, or I promise, you won’t get anything!"

"Get lost!"

Blood Skull’s target was Han Dong.

Now that Han Dong had shown up, keeping Jiang Feng was pointless.

He was confident—Han Dong dared come before him, so she couldn’t possibly escape his grasp.

"Sister Dong."

Jiang Feng finally understood.

Blood Skull must have something important in Han Dong’s hands, otherwise he wouldn’t take such a risk.

"Go quickly, this has nothing to do with you."

Han Dong didn’t want to waste words with Jiang Feng.

"Sister Dong, be careful."

Jiang Feng nodded, warned her, then dashed out of the yard.

Soon after.

Jiang Feng heard the sounds of fighting.

He realized Han Dong and Blood Skull were battling.

The outcome was obvious.

Blood Skull was a First Grade Qi Refining Realm expert—he even killed Han Dong’s master. Han Dong was only Third Grade Realm, how could she be a match? Not to mention, there was also another Third Grade Realm expert and three Middle Third Grade Martial Artists helping out.

There was no way Han Dong could win.

No chance of making it out alive either.

Jiang Feng kept running.

But the more he ran, he couldn’t help but slow down.

His mind kept replaying the moment Han Dong came alone to save him.

In the end, Jiang Feng leaned against a wall.

He closed his eyes.

Took a deep breath.

First, he checked the changes in his panel info.

Name: Jiang Feng

Fortune: 66177

Cultivation Technique: Tai Chi Longevity Skill (Proficient+)

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Minor Achievement+) Divine Arrow (Great Success+) Loulan Slash (Beginner+)

Realm: Second Grade (Refining Essence)

Divine Power: Immortality

"As expected of a First Grade Realm expert—I actually gained nearly twenty-seven thousand Fortune Points."

Jiang Feng exclaimed in shock.

He broke into a cold sweat for no reason.

He thought Blood Skull was wounded. With Tai Chi Longevity Skill and primordial power several times stronger than peers in the same realm, he could catch him off guard and win.

But seeing his Fortune Point increase—

Jiang Feng realized he’d oversimplified things.

If he really fought Blood Skull,

there was no way he’d gain the advantage.

Even if he could win by luck, it would be a narrow escape, requiring a hefty price.

And his strength would be completely exposed.

Attracting attention from the Second Prince and Seventh Prince.

Especially the Second Prince.

The Second Prince might even suspect he killed Cao Zhengyang, took the ledger, handed it to the Seventh Prince, and fired that crucial arrow in Prince Zhennan’s Mansion—he’d also be exposed to the Seventh Prince’s eyes.

Otherwise, how could his Fortune Point have jumped by nearly twenty-seven thousand all at once?

The danger here was obvious.

"At last, I can enhance the Tai Chi Longevity Skill again. Hope it doesn’t let me down."

Seeing the plus sign after Tai Chi Longevity Skill—

Jiang Feng immediately poured forty thousand Fortune Points into it.

The panel info changed again.

Name: Jiang Feng

Fortune: 26177

Cultivation Technique: Tai Chi Longevity Skill (Mastery)

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Minor Achievement+) Divine Arrow (Great Success+) Loulan Slash (Beginner+)

Realm: First Grade (Qi Refining)

Divine Power: Immortality

Jiang Feng felt the primordial power within him surge. It was as if an invisible energy from heaven and earth followed his primordial power, controlled by him.

The primordial power that had once scattered in his dantian—

now formed a vortex.

As the vortex spun—

Jiang Feng felt his body become a black hole, able to refine the energy of heaven and earth for his own use, so his primordial power would flow endlessly, truly reaching the level of Refining Essence and Qi.

In this moment—

Jiang Feng felt it clearly.

This is what First Grade means.

It’s not simply about transforming Qi Blood into primordial power—

or having primordial power exit the body.

Instead, primordial power merges with the energies around his body, using them to strengthen physique and Essence, Qi, and Spirit. Compared to ordinary martial artists who rely on breathing to strengthen their Qi Blood and keep up strength, it was a qualitative leap.

No comparison at all.

If—

A Third-Grade Martial Artist only lets Qi Blood overflow outward,

A Second-Grade Martial Artist just turns Qi Blood into primordial power,

a First-Grade Martial Artist possesses primordial power and also forms a self-cultivation system, allowing them to constantly train and strengthen, expanding their own Qi Sea.

Beyond that—

The clarity and range of his perception also doubled.

Jiang Feng was keenly aware—if not for cultivating "Tai Chi Longevity Skill," not just a Health Cultivation Technique but also a Celestial Extreme Technique, he couldn’t have fooled Blood Skull earlier by feigning unconsciousness.

Now he realized how lucky he’d been.

"There’s still over twenty-six thousand Fortune Points. Hmm, upgrade Loulan Slash—this is a Profound Level Blade Technique."

"Before, three thousand Fortune Points got me to Beginner level. In theory, doubling that, I’ll need at least six thousand. Let’s try it!"

The panel changed again.

Fortune: 20177

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Minor Achievement+) Divine Arrow (Great Success+) Loulan Slash (Proficient+)

"Still far from enough—another twelve thousand!"

Jiang Feng wasn’t satisfied.

He decided to increase Loulan Slash again.

He believed boosting Divine Arrow wasn’t as good as boosting Loulan Slash.

First, Divine Arrow’s level was already higher than Loulan Slash’s.

Second—

Now that he was First Grade, Jiang Feng knew normal archery upgrades couldn’t really threaten someone at his level.

Once the enemy got wary—

they could just hide, and no matter how strong his archery, it would be useless.

The panel changed again.

Fortune: 8177

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Minor Achievement+) Divine Arrow (Great Success) Loulan Slash (Mastery)

"These... over eight thousand Fortune Points shouldn’t be left unused."

Jiang Feng remembered when he boosted Prison Guard Long Fist from Mastery to Minor Achievement, he spent one thousand Fortune Points. According to the doubling rule, he could spend six thousand to upgrade two more levels.

The panel changed again.

Name: Jiang Feng

Fortune: 2177

Cultivation Techniques: Prison Guard Health Care Skill (Great Perfection) Tai Chi Longevity Skill (Mastery)

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Perfection) Divine Arrow (Great Success) Monkey Escape (Great Perfection) Loulan Slash (Mastery)

Realm: First Grade (Qi Refining)

Divine Power: Immortality

"Finally, I have some security."

Looking at the changes, Jiang Feng felt more confident.

"Pa!"

"Bitch, I’m asking you—where the hell did you hide the thing?"

Just as Jiang Feng suspected—

After he left, it wasn’t long before Han Dong was subdued by Blood Skull.

Right now, she faced Blood Skull’s interrogation, taking a hard slap to the face.

"I’ll tell you if you tell me first—how did you escape?"

Han Dong taunted him.

She knew there must be someone in the Court helping Blood Skull.

"Bitch, I’ll skin you alive."

Blood Skull roared, his five fingers stabbing into Han Dong’s shoulder, viciously threatening her.

"If you’ve got it in you, kill me."

Han Dong was covered in sweat, speaking through her pain.

"Squad Leader, if we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late."

The Third-Grade Martial Artist urged anxiously.

Blood Skull took a deep breath. Considering their situation, he could only nod and say, "Retreat as planned!"

"Whoosh!"

But just then, a wind-breaking sound rang out.
