"Spirit Power?"
Jiang Fu was slightly stunned.
It had not been there before.
Yet it had suddenly appeared.
It should have appeared after he multiplied his Constitution by ten.
At that moment.
Jiang Fu realized.
After the Spirit Power stat had appeared, he felt much more alert—his thoughts seemed far more active as well.
Jiang Fu pondered for a moment.
The original owner's memories contained nothing related to Spirit Power.
This was beyond the limits of his knowledge.
"How about multiplying Spirit Power by ten... Wait!"
The moment that thought arose.
A layer of cold sweat instantly formed on Jiang Fu's forehead.
Previously.
Whenever Jiang Fu multiplied his Blood Energy or Constitution by ten, it affected other aspects of his body in various ways.
Spirit Power should be connected to the brain.
If he rashly multiplied his Spirit Power by ten, would his head explode?
Jiang Fu thought for a moment.
Then—
"Brain Strength multiplied by ten, lasting three days!"
"Brain Capacity multiplied by ten, lasting three days!"
"Spirit Power multiplied by ten, lasting three days!"
As soon as the words fell.
Jiang Fu watched helplessly as, on the attribute panel floating before him.
His Spirit Power value jumped from 100 to 1000!
Immediately afterward.
Jiang Fu felt as though.
His body had become lighter.
His mind, his spirit, became exceptionally clear.
An indescribable.
Inexpressible sensation.
Lingered in his heart.
It was as though...
Jiang Fu turned his head.
And looked at the oranges the young nurse had placed back on the bedside table.
Then.
One of the oranges floated into the air.
Following Jiang Fu's will, it drifted little by little toward him.
Jiang Fu's eyes widened.
"Th-This is the effect of multiplying Spirit Power by ten!?"
When his Spirit Power value was 100.
Jiang Fu had only felt that his mind was much clearer.
He absolutely could not have done this.
That meant 100 Spirit Power was still within the range of an ordinary person.
But after multiplying his Spirit Power by ten, he could actually move objects through the air!
It was like an invisible hand.
"Then..."
The next moment.
Jiang Fu's mind stirred.
The other nine oranges on the bedside table floated up at the same time.
The ten oranges lined up in a row.
And flew rapidly around the hospital room according to Jiang Fu's will.
Leaving trails of afterimages behind them.
Jiang Fu's eyes glimmered faintly.
A moment later.
Jiang Fu put the oranges back where they had been.
Then, his Spirit Power slowly extended outward.
His Spirit Power was unhindered by walls.
It passed through them with ease.
And stretched toward the outside world.
One meter.
Two meters.
Five meters.
...Ten meters.
At last, it stopped at a radius of roughly ten meters.
Jiang Fu's Spirit Power covered a sphere with a radius of ten meters and a diameter of twenty meters.
Within that sphere twenty meters across, every scene was clearly reflected in Jiang Fu's mind.
He did not need his eyes or ears.
Through Spirit Power alone, he could sense everything within its range.
At that moment.
Within Jiang Fu's perception.
The doctors and nurses in the hospital hurried about as though facing a great enemy.
They came and went.
With a certain hospital room as their focal point.
Jiang Fu had already guessed.
That room was where Ge Yanxia was.
However.
Ge Yanxia was beyond the range of his Spirit Power.
So Jiang Fu did not know her exact condition at the moment.
"That little bastard Jiang Fu not only didn't die, he even ate a Mist Ripple Fruit. His condition has already recovered!"
Just then.
A voice lowered in volume entered Jiang Fu's Spirit Power.
"Old Wu, what the hell were you doing?"
"That little bastard had a Mist Ripple Fruit on him, and you didn't even notice!"
"Now that he's eaten the Mist Ripple Fruit, his Blood Energy has recovered. He'll probably heal completely before long... What do you think we should do?"
"What did you say? No Mist Ripple Fruit? If there was no Mist Ripple Fruit, then how did his injuries heal? Could someone really be stupid enough to spend three hundred thousand on Vitality Pills for him?"
"Kill him again? This is the city! Do you dare kill someone in the city, and a Martial Artist at that!? Don't drag me down with you!"
"That little bastard isn't an idiot. How could he possibly fall for the same trick twice!"
"Hm? Fine. Be more thorough this time. Don't leave him an intact corpse!"
"I'm hanging up."
Jiang Fu's expression instantly darkened.
The owner of that voice.
Was none other than his nominal uncle, Guo Fangdong.
Under the perception of his Spirit Power.
The Blood Energy within Guo Fangdong was immense. He was clearly a Martial Artist as well.
"I thought they had tricked the original owner into going out to die."
"I never expected they had tricked him out to murder him..."
In an instant.
Jiang Fu understood the whole story.
For Guo Fangdong and Ge Yanxia to reasonably swallow the original owner's family estate.
They had to prove to everyone that the original owner was dead.
And a corpse was the best proof.
Therefore.
After Old Wu on the other end of the phone had arranged for the original owner to be killed.
They brought the body back and sent it to the hospital Morgue.
This matter had originally already been settled beyond dispute.
But his homeroom teacher, Xu Chi, had refused to give up.
He insisted on trying to save him again.
And at that moment.
Jiang Fu had transmigrated into this body.
Thanks to the hospital's full efforts to treat him, this life had finally been preserved.
And now.
Just as Jiang Fu had guessed earlier.
As long as he remained alive.
Guo Fangdong and Ge Yanxia would never let the matter rest.
That Old Wu was the man Guo Fangdong had found to deal with him.
Jiang Fu did not know what Old Wu on the other end of the call had said to Guo Fangdong.
But one thing was certain: the man was absolutely no good.
Jiang Fu carefully searched through the original owner's memories from before his death.
...Nothing.
He had no idea how he had died.
Nor had he seen this so-called Old Wu.
"Ge Yanxia, Guo Fangdong, and that Old Wu... They are all absolute threats."
"I have to kill them first!"
Jiang Fu locked onto Guo Fangdong with his Spirit Power.
"Blood Pressure, Blood Lipids, Blood Sugar multiplied by ten!"
After a pause.
He said somewhat hesitantly, "Bad luck multiplied by ten!"
Jiang Fu did not know.
Whether something as intangible as bad luck could truly be multiplied by ten.
If it really could be multiplied by ten.
Then Jiang Fu would multiply his own good luck by ten.
Guo Fangdong, who was nearly beyond the range of Jiang Fu's Spirit Power.
Suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Then he fell flat on his face for no reason at all.
Then.
His eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
Streams of crimson blood immediately sprayed from his nostrils as well.
"What's going on!?"
Guo Fangdong was horrified.
He had not fainted on the spot like Ge Yanxia.
Clearly, Guo Fangdong was stronger than Ge Yanxia.
But even so.
Guo Fangdong's head spun, and he struggled to breathe.
An intense wave of nausea filled his chest.
Guo Fangdong wanted to cry out.
But it felt as though something was lodged in his throat.
He could not make a sound.
Jiang Fu withdrew his Spirit Power.
He no longer paid Guo Fangdong any mind.
For now, this was the only way he could forcibly keep his two so-called uncles and so-called aunt in the hospital.
And stop them from causing more trouble.
As for this world's medical standards...
Whether they could handle a sudden tenfold spike in Blood Pressure, Blood Lipids, and Blood Sugar...
Jiang Fu wasn't sure either.
"Right, weeds must be pulled out by the roots."
"And my dear cousin... Guo Xiaofeng!"
"...That isn't urgent. I need to deal with my own situation first."
Jiang Fu had multiplied his Blood Energy, lifespan, Constitution, Brain Capacity, and Spirit Power by ten for three days.
During those three days,
Jiang Fu had to find a Vitality Pill.
Or a Spiritual Fruit like the Mist Ripple Fruit.
At the very least, he needed to find something else that could increase his Blood Energy.
Otherwise,
Even if he could continue using Multiply by Ten after three days,
The returns from multiplying would diminish.
The larger the base, the greater the gains from multiplying by ten.
And vice versa.
With that in mind,
Jiang Fu walked over to the wardrobe in the ward.
Although this VIP Ward was only the most basic kind,
It lacked none of the necessary amenities.
Jiang Fu took out a faded school uniform from inside.
It was the uniform of Bincheng Ninth Middle School.
It had already been washed clean.
Yet faint bloodstains still remained on it.
He changed out of his hospital gown.
Then Jiang Fu slowly walked out of the ward.
He used his Spirit Power to glance in Guo Fangdong's direction.
At that moment,
Guo Fangdong was lying silently in the corridor on the floor below, completely motionless.
Perhaps because of Bad luck multiplied by ten,
No one had noticed Guo Fangdong lying in the corridor yet.
