My Ability Is Role-playing-Chapter 278 - 277: Feedback: Stamina Greatly Increased!

Chapter 278: Chapter 277: Feedback: Stamina Greatly Increased!

Using Inner Qi, simulate the structural principles of technological creations from the Earth civilization, construct Inner Qi circuits to efficiently absorb light energy, store it, and convert it into Inner Qi at any time.

Sounds quite scientific...

But just thinking about the difficulty of it, Su Qiangwei felt a bit of a headache.

Finely manipulating Inner Qi and shaping it might not mean much to other novice cultivators, but she was very aware of how difficult it was for others to achieve what Ma Ran could do effortlessly!

"Phew..."

The girl took a deep breath.

Actually, it doesn’t matter.

It’s just the fourteenth rank of Inner Qi, right?

Not too far off!

Through persistent effort and using a small cheat she crafted with the power of [Myriad Transformations], she had reached the fourth rank of Inner Qi.

Between fourteen and four, there’s only a one-character difference, right?

With a bit more effort, I won’t take long to catch up with Ma Ran’s pace and even surpass him!

Thinking of this, the girl chuckled to herself, feeling invigorated.

She scooped several spoonfuls of white sugar onto a sliced watermelon and began to eat it happily, one spoonful after another.

Seeing Su Qiangwei’s expression, Ma Ran could vaguely guess what she was thinking.

She might not have other advantages, but her mindset was certainly good.

That was something worth learning.

Without the time to concern himself with the girl’s little thoughts, Ma Ran collected the Youwen Text Illusion, and the glow radiating from his hand seemed to be gradually absorbed by his skin.

He patiently explained to everyone present, "If you have the relevant knowledge, moving from thirteen layers of Inner Qi to fourteen layers isn’t hard at all."

"If the design and calculations are correct..."

"It won’t take long before I reach the fifteenth layer of Inner Qi realm."

"Earlier, I promised everyone an ’Inner Qi Opportunity,’ which can be achieved at the fifteenth rank of Inner Qi."

Hearing this, the cafeteria fell into silence, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, only the sounds of breathing and heartbeats were audible.

When new members joined the second phase of the society, Ma Ran’s promise had spread across the country recently.

"The opportunity to rise from the third rank of Inner Qi to the fourth and even the fifth rank"...

Not only various academic societies but even many ordinary people who were just getting started with Inner Qi cultivation were gearing up, all eager for the opportunity promised by Ma Ran and launching towards this goal.

Unfortunately, the ten names on the first list of adventures have now been filled and announced to the entire society.

This left many who wanted to get ahead quite disappointed.

However, still, many well-informed individuals have pinned their hopes on the ’Swordsmanship Adventure.’

After all, the ’Swordsmanship Adventure’ promised by Ma Ran, like the ’Inner Qi Opportunity,’ is a benefit that at least ten people can enjoy.

And now, only two slots have been taken, by the Sword Master disciples Zhu Hanyi and Wan Haihao.

The remaining eight slots, anyone who contacts the Seven Vortex Swordsmanship has the qualification and possibility to obtain!

Some quick-reacting people began hiring psychologists and hypnosis experts at a high cost, or even brainwashing themselves at home, trying to raise their obsession with the ’sword’ to meet the minimum standard for Swordsmanship Talent recruitment by various academic societies.

However, most attempts have been ineffective, mostly only raising the Swordsmanship Talent by one or two points, far from the standard ’6’ points.

Online, many have jokingly referred to the current era as the ’Epoch of Delusions,’ where those deep in such delusions have the most opportunities to seize in this Extraordinary Era.

In fact, this saying has some validity, yet is not entirely correct.

Those who uphold the belief in materialism and have firm faith, even if unable to cultivate the Seven Vortex Swordsmanship, can awaken superpowers through contact with the Victory Stone!

If lucky enough, they might even take a great leap forward, becoming outstanding among the Extraordinary Ones!

No matter the personality or worldview, reaching the extreme and steadfastly adhering to one’s path will not yield an achievement lower than the average level.

Of course, those who follow the middle path, and are ordinary in every aspect, do not face a dead end either.

The upgraded Inner Qi Martial Arts by Ma Ran is prepared for these people.

What is the most important thing in cultivating Inner Qi?

Wisdom?

Physique?

No!

Neither!

The most critical aspect is self-control!

An ability to control one’s diet, exercise, rest, and acupoint analysis time with discipline, cultivating steadfastly day by day, will naturally lead to a profound realm.

In conclusion, here’s the question...

Suppose—if someone is not delusionally inclined, lacks firm belief and faith, and lacks self-control, could they become a powerful Extraordinary One?

The answer is...

No.

That’s the cruel reality.

If one wants to become strong, in the end, they can only rely on themselves.

Before Ma Ran’s rebirth, among the three major conditions above, only those with determined belief and faith had the qualification to become a powerful Extraordinary One.

Delusionally inclined individuals and those with strong self-control were not much different from ordinary people.

A mere Ace Mecha Master or Ninth Rank Martial Arts Master in the face of catastrophe was as vulnerable as an ordinary person, laughably incapable in disaster resistance.

Ma Ran shook his head, collecting his thoughts, "In as little as three days or as long as ten days."

"By then, I’ll have a surprise for everyone."

He knew very well that his discussion in the cafeteria with members and chefs at this time would surely have reached the ears of those big shots above.

Ma Ran was confident that this play-act would definitely succeed wonderfully.

After all, having just experienced an interstellar expedition, counterattacked the Eternal Civilization, and ’forced’ the other party to sign a peace agreement, surrendering two important technologies as compensation.

At this time point, who knows how many current powers and retired but still ’influential’ big shots were closely watching Ma Ran.

However...

Ma Ran did not expect that just as he finished speaking, the feedback from [play] already arrived!

Originally, the Inner Qi consumed over numerous battles quickly refilled in the blink of an eye!

Not only that!

The essence of the Inner Qi fundamentally changed, becoming purer and more intense, with each breath, the strength of Inner Qi continually increased.

Threads of light converged into his body through his limbs and bones, absorbed, digested, or stored by the flood of Inner Qi.

At this moment, Ma Ran truly broke through to the fourteenth rank of Inner Qi!

From now on, he could absorb light energy anytime and anywhere to replenish consumption!

Whether it’s sunlight or artificial light, it can all serve as an energy source.

In an environment rich in light energy, oftentimes, the consumption rate of Inner Qi doesn’t even match the pace of replenishment!

Thereafter, if any enemy wished to drain Ma Ran through a sea of people tactic...

It’s almost impossible to achieve that.

Ma Ran gently caressed the faintly glowing light at his fingertips, brimming with thoughts.

The feeling of steadily growing stronger without the need for diligent cultivation, to be honest...

Isn’t bad.

Having reached the fourteenth rank of Inner Qi, even without invoking the [Zhang Kuang (Gun)] medal, Ma Ran had the confidence to outlast and defeat the gravity-controlling ’Four’ encountered previously without injury.

This rank’s biggest advantage is the greatly increased endurance!

It influences far beyond just combat.

Including daily work, study, and research, there are immense benefits.

As for the downside...

Compared to the night, after reaching the fourteenth rank of Inner Qi, one might experience excessive physical energy and abnormal mental excitement during the day, requiring some time to adapt.

...

That afternoon, at the Grass Hut Academy.

Wu Di, Li Xing, Ma Ran, Su Qiangwei, and Demon Child Zhang Kuang, plus 98725 who remained invisible and floating in the air, arrived at the Shengyu Stone Well.
