400 billion... 420 billion... 500 billion!
When the total energy count stopped at 520 billion, the milky-white pool water had turned clear and transparent, and the mist swirling above it had vanished completely.
Under the torrent of immense spiritual power, Lin Yu had actually gone up two whole levels!
