Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 60: Upper Three Grades

Han Dong thought of Prison Chief Sun.

Jiang Feng and Prison Chief Sun were both just Little Prison Chiefs.

If Jiang Feng hadn’t had her protection today, the outcome for him would have been easy to guess.

Even with Middle Third Grade strength, Jiang Feng would have had a hard time protecting himself. Thinking of this, Han Dong felt a sense of sympathy for Jiang Feng.

She said, "If something like this happens again, you must come to me first."

"Mm, thank you, Sister Dong."

Jiang Feng nodded.

"You can go back now! What happened today is already over, you don’t have to worry about Cao Zhengyang doing anything to you. With me here, he won’t dare touch you. As for the Second Prince and the Seventh Prince, their attention will all be on Cao Zhengyang. Even if they eventually find out you helped Wang Qisheng go to the black market to look for the ’Five Poison Grass,’ Wang Qisheng is already dead, so they won’t do anything to you. On the contrary, Cao Zhengyang will have a lot of trouble on his hands.

In short, in these next three months, don’t leave Zhenbei Prison."

Han Dong thought for a moment, then spoke slowly.

"Yes, I understand."

Jiang Feng bowed deeply to Han Dong, then returned to the workshop.

Sitting on the bed inside the workshop,

Jiang Feng was filled with mixed emotions.

He didn’t need to worry anymore about the Seventh Prince or the Second Prince causing him trouble. Even if his identity was exposed, it was Cao Zhengyang who’d be in danger, since he was the one fooling the two princes.

And with Wang Qisheng dead, in the eyes of the two princes, he no longer had any value or threat.

It was precisely because of this,

Jiang Feng knew,

between him and Cao Zhengyang, one of them had to fall.

Han Dong could protect him for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Moreover, Cao Zhengyang was helping the Second Prince clean up the aftermath—even if he caused it, the Second Prince’s way of handling things would likely be a mix of favor and intimidation. If nothing went wrong, Cao Zhengyang would become a confidant of the Second Prince.

Originally, in Jiang Feng’s plan,

after confirming that everything was instigated by Cao Zhengyang, Han Dong would sense the gravity of the situation and go see the Second Prince in person. The Second Prince, in a thunderous rage, would order Wang Qisheng’s execution and naturally have Han Dong heavily punish Cao Zhengyang.

Cao Zhengyang would have ended up in a miserable state.

Even if he didn’t die, he’d be stripped of a layer of skin.

As for Jiang Feng, he was betting Han Dong wouldn’t make things difficult for him—at least not kill him. If things got worse, he still had a way out; once he noticed things getting bad, he could escape far from Dragon Capital.

But he never expected,

that Han Dong would be even smarter than he’d thought.

She actually made Cao Zhengyang go see the Second Prince.

From beginning to end, she kept herself out of the situation.

Which led to this whole series of events.

Jiang Feng was grateful to Han Dong.

He also admired Han Dong’s composure and far-sighted nature.

Before, he’d thought Uncle Huo was his only friend in Zhenbei Prison.

Now, he had Han Dong too.

This favor, Jiang Feng would never forget.

Sitting on the bed, Jiang Feng checked the information on his status panel.

Name: Jiang Feng

Fortune Point: 18775

Cultivation Technique: Prison Guard Health Care Skill (Perfection+)

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Minor Achievement+), Divine Arrow (Mastery+), Monkey Escape Technique (Great Success+)

Realm: Fourth Grade (Essence Refining)

Divine Power: Immortality

Jiang Feng saw that overnight, the Fortune Point, which had been seven or eight points short of ten thousand, had actually reached 18,775. There was now a plus sign behind the Prison Guard Health Care Skill as well.

His Fortune Point had leapt up by over eight thousand in an instant.

One could imagine just how dangerous this time had been.

If he hadn’t taken the risk and gotten Wang Qisheng killed, otherwise—given Wang Qisheng’s connections and influence, once he got out, he would have found countless ways to kill Jiang Feng. Even if Jiang Feng dodged the first few waves of danger.

Once Wang Qisheng discovered he’d been hiding his strength, the only thing Jiang Feng could do would probably have been to flee far from Dragon Capital.

Of course, these eight thousand-plus Fortune Points,

didn’t come from Wang Qisheng alone.

The Second Prince, Seventh Prince, and even Cao Zhengyang contributed as well.

Jiang Feng didn’t dwell on it further.

What mattered was improving his strength now.

He put ten thousand Fortune Points into the Prison Guard Health Care Skill.

The panel information changed.

Name: Jiang Feng

Fortune Point: 8775

Cultivation Technique: Prison Guard Health Care Skill (Great Perfection)

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Minor Achievement+), Divine Arrow (Mastery+), Monkey Escape Technique (Great Success+)

Realm: Third Grade (Refining Divinity)

Divine Power: Immortality

Jiang Feng got what he wanted.

He finally became an Upper Third-Grade Martial Artist.

At this moment, he truly experienced the gulf between an Upper Third-Grade Martial Artist and a Middle Third-Grade Martial Artist.

Just as Han Dong had said.

The difference lay not only in perception power, sensitivity, and speed, but, more importantly, in the mastery of Qi Blood Power.

Jiang Feng raised his hand.

The skin of his palm seemed to ripple like opened paper; a red dot appeared at first, then slowly his whole palm turned crimson. In the workshop, Jiang Feng found a piece of iron and gripped it hard.

He didn’t rely on any martial technique.

Just with this Qi and Blood Power alone, he left a shallow mark on the iron block.

If he faced Yuan Tiangang again,

Jiang Feng was confident that, once at close range, even just with Prison Guard Long Fist’s Minor Success Level and this Qi and Blood Power, he could beat Yuan Tiangang to death in a short time.

"Cao Zhengyang, I wonder if you can withstand a palm strike from me?"

Jiang Feng thought to himself.

He had investigated it.

Cao Zhengyang’s strength was at Middle Third Grade Level, Fourth Grade Essence Refining Realm.

But as commander of the Divine Arrow Army, Cao Zhengyang’s archery skills were exceptional. His Archery Skill might be on par with Jiang Feng’s, or even surpass him.

It was also possible that Cao Zhengyang, being a cunning old fox, had hidden his true cultivation.

In these times, after all, who didn’t have a trump card?

In any case, Jiang Feng had to deal with Cao Zhengyang as soon as possible. If he waited for Cao Zhengyang to be favored by the Second Prince, killing him would be much harder—and then Jiang Feng would be the one in danger.

"Let’s try boosting my body technique!"

To be safe,

Jiang Feng decided to level up his body technique as well.

He remembered that when his Fortune Point hadn’t yet reached six thousand, there was already a plus sign behind Monkey Escape Technique.

So he put 5,500 Fortune Points into Monkey Escape Technique.

The panel information changed.

Name: Jiang Feng

Fortune Point: 3275

Cultivation Technique: Prison Guard Health Care Skill (Great Perfection)

Skills: Prison Guard Long Fist (Minor Achievement+), Divine Arrow (Mastery+), Monkey Escape Technique (Great Perfection)

Realm: Third Grade (Refining Divinity)

Divine Power: Immortality

Jiang Feng saw that Monkey Escape Technique had gone from Great Success to Great Perfection—he had already cultivated this technique to the extreme. If he wanted to enhance his body technique further, he’d have to cultivate some other, more advanced technique next time.

Still, with a Great Perfection Level Monkey Escape Technique plus Third-Grade Refining Divinity realm cultivation, Jiang Feng knew that even if things went south, he should be able to flee Dragon Capital and save his life.

"With a bit more than three thousand Fortune Points left, which skill should I improve?"

Jiang Feng saw that both Prison Guard Long Fist and Divine Arrow now had a plus sign after them, and he was momentarily hesitant.

If he wanted to kill Cao Zhengyang, improving his archery skill would certainly make it easier. But he’d just used this method to kill Yuan Tiangang and Lei Laohu, and if he used it again, Han Dong might grow suspicious.

If he improved Prison Guard Long Fist, combined with Third-Grade Refining Divinity Realm cultivation and Great Perfection body technique, he should also be able to quickly kill Cao Zhengyang.

After much consideration,

Jiang Feng decided to upgrade Divine Arrow!
