I Can Strengthen Everything

’I can’t waste this High Realm White Tiger Essence. I’ll absorb the other two Middle Realm Essences first.’

With that thought, Fang Xing put the White Tiger Essence away.

This trip to Cang Province had turned out much better than he had expected.

Aside from the Demons and Monsters, the more significant discovery was the ability to enhance with Demon Essence.

He had 8,500 Demon Essences, but unfortunately, not enough Enhancement Points.

This process could directly enhance his spirit.

’To manifest a Yin God while in the True Qi Realm... I wouldn’t dare say I’m the first, but I’m definitely one of a very select few.’

’Enhancing with Demon Essence isn’t urgent. I should first raise my Martial Arts and Cultivation.’

Calming himself, Fang Xing summoned his panel to take a look.

Name: Fang Xing

Cultivation: True Qi Fourth Layer!

Enhancement Level: Four-Star (19%)

Enhancement Points: 236,750

’Nineteen percent... It seems that reaching Five-Star will require spending at least one million Enhancement Points.’

Looking at the panel, Fang Xing had a rough idea.

’One million Enhancement Points. That’s a lot!’

Excluding what he had now, he would need at least another 600,000 or so Enhancement Points for a Star Promotion.

However, if he had a few more situations like the one in Cang Province, it wouldn’t take too long.

But this kind of turmoil caused by collusion between Demons and the Evil Cult was extremely risky.

If Zhuang Qian hadn’t taken out that special Magical Treasure to destroy the Blood-colored Coffin, victory would have been uncertain.

The methods of the Evil Cult were beyond imagination.

Even with his current strength, he was still no match for a behemoth like the Evil Cult.

It was also fortunate that no True Gang Realm powerhouses from the Evil Cult had appeared; otherwise, he likely would not have returned alive.

Top-level experts operated on a different level.

The reason no True Gang Realm powerhouses from the Evil Cult appeared was that the Observatory had dispatched its own equally powerful experts to intercept them.

Hong Miaojin’s appearance at Qingfeng Pass was definitely not a coincidence.

Perhaps she had just finished dealing with an Evil Cult powerhouse before rushing over.

’Enough overthinking. I should just focus on getting stronger.’

Casting those thoughts aside, Fang Xing took out a Qilin Essence and swallowed it.

He activated the Longevity Technique and the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt simultaneously.

The Dragon Qi roared, and waves of Dragon’s Roars echoed from within his body.

The power of the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt was beyond doubt.

Without the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt, he would have died a thousand times over.

Although this Top Level Divine Skill consumed vast resources, its power was astonishing.

It tempered the Flesh Body, granting unparalleled defense!

The deeper his Cultivation, the more powerful the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt would become.

With these Essences, Fang Xing set his sights on a greater goal.

Three Essences in total: two Middle Realm and one High Realm.

’Breaking through to the Late Stage of the True Qi Realm is impossible.’

From the Middle Stage to the Late Stage, he was a full three layers away.

Even if the enhanced Divine Beast Essence far surpassed Elixirs refined from Demon and Monster Cores, it was still an impossible feat.

’One step at a time.’

Cultivation couldn’t be achieved overnight.

’However, if I can break through to the next layer of the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt, my prospects will be much better.’

The power of the Qilin Essence continuously permeated his body, and his Essence Power increased bit by bit.

The Dragon Qi within his body grew stronger and stronger!

...

「Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.」

He had spent a full half-month completely absorbing the two Middle Realm Essences.

The progress on his Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt didn’t disappoint. Propelled by the two Middle Realm Essences, it reached the Eighth Layer, just as he had hoped.

Golden Armor draped over him, covering his entire body.

Golden Dragon Qi coiled around him.

Having cultivated the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt to the Eighth Layer, his Dragon Qi had become almost tangible.

Thanks to his Flesh Body being tempered by Essence Power, combined with the breakthrough of his Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt, his strength reached an astonishing 350,000 jin of Divine Power.

The jump from the Seventh to the Eighth Layer alone increased his Divine Power by 80,000 jin. Combined with the tempering from the Essence, his strength reached a total of 350,000 jin.

His qi, blood, muscles, bones, and internal organs were all greatly strengthened.

With his pure Physical Strength alone, he could fight and kill other Martial Artists in the same realm.

Such was the advantage in strength granted by a Horizontal Refining Divine Skill.

To overwhelm with pure power!

Besides the breakthrough of his Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt, his Cultivation also advanced rapidly.

He had filled all thirty-six Major Acupoints, his True Qi was polished to its absolute limit, and his Cultivation reached the Fourth-Layer Extreme.

’Just the last White Tiger Essence left...’ Fang Xing thought as he took out the High Realm White Tiger Essence.

’If the Dragon’s Roar Iron Cloth Shirt goes up one more layer, it will reach Third Stage Perfection.’

’And breaking through to the True Qi Fifth Layer shouldn’t be a problem.’

These thoughts flashed through Fang Xing’s mind as he gazed at the White Tiger Essence in his hand.

This was the first time he had ever consumed a High Realm Essence.

According to his experience, the changes brought by different levels of Essence were immense.

He didn’t yet know what heights a single High Realm Essence could help him reach.

He would only know after consuming it.

He opened his mouth and swallowed it.

Soon, Fang Xing felt a vast and majestic power spreading through his body.

VMMMM—!!!

A faint white light enveloped his body.

ROAR—!!

Faintly, it sounded as if a fierce tiger was roaring.

The power of the High Realm Essence spread out, sweeping through his entire body like a torrential flood.

He simultaneously activated the Longevity Technique and the Dragon Roar Heart Method, pushing both Heart Methods to their absolute limits.

The Essence Power was so immense that even his Flesh Body felt like it could barely contain it.

Although he was prepared, he was still struck by the sheer force of the White Tiger Essence.

A white glow enveloped his entire body as a powerful aura filled the air.

An oppressive pressure swept out, and the very air seemed to be forcefully compressed by his aura.

Ripples spread out in layers!

The air even began to distort in the space about an inch from his body.

Fang Xing threw his entire being into the Refinement of the White Tiger Essence.
