On his way back to his own courtyard, Li Xingkong saw many elderly men and women walking out. These were all people who had signed contracts, and they had all come out at the old man's urging.
This scene was quite lively; if they had left even a moment later, they would have truly become hostages.
Li Xingkong decided not to join in the fun. After all, the scene looked a bit chaotic, and some elderly people might bump into things. As one of the few young people, he wouldn't be able to handle it all.
It's better not to go.
Pushing open the gate to his courtyard, Li Xingkong returned to his cultivation spot.
Knowing he would soon be embarking on a long period of cultivation, Li Xingkong first made an overall assessment of his current progress before beginning his training.
My current cultivation level can be considered as the Mid Qi Refining. To break it down, my cultivation progress can be divided into several parts.
These include Bone Tempering, which focuses on physical cultivation; Qi Refining Technique, which focuses on Magic Power cultivation; and various other miscellaneous spells.
Regarding physical training, 45 bones have completed Bone Tempering so far, which is almost a quarter of the total human skeleton. The Body Tempering progress is about in line with my estimated time. If I increase the amount of Body Tempering Grass used, I can complete Bone Tempering within a year.
Li Xingkong couldn't estimate his current physical strength, but based on his experience in the Prisoner Continent, ordinary RPGs posed little threat to him, and direct fire from guns would have difficulty breaking through his defenses. Judging from his current strength, he could probably take a shower with a rapid-fire cannon.
As for his own strength, it's even more impossible to estimate. Before, after only a few Bone Tempering, he could already be a human excavator. Now, he estimates that if he exerts his full strength, pushing a 50-ton object is definitely not a problem. As for heavier objects, he has only Bone Tempering so far, and there are still many subtle parts of his body that have not been modified. Too much weight would still cause some damage to his body.
In terms of Qi Refining Technique, he has now completed the construction of his entire body's Magic Power pathways. Through repeated construction, his Mana Circuit have become sufficiently robust. At this stage, if his Magic Power were like a car, his Mana Circuit would be eight lanes wide.
Even when casting spells at full power, the rate of Magic Power supply cannot keep up.
The most fundamental aspect of the Sun and Sun and Moon Qi Refining Method is absorbing sunlight, and he has already cultivated this to the point where he can do without sunlight. Now he can absorb the energy emitted by the sun anytime, anywhere.
As for magic, he doesn't know many spells, only a few in total.
Li Xingkong had mastered Shotgun Spell to a high degree. Although this magic was not very useful in Divine Land, he could still use it when cultivating the land. Using military magic for agriculture was very reasonable and perfectly suited to Divine Land's national conditions of integrating agriculture and warfare.
Explosive Counter Spell, as his first defensive spell, played an indispensable role in the Prisoner Continent. However, it is now nearing retirement, as his physical strength has surpassed the defensive capabilities of Explosive Counter Spell. The greatest value of this spell now lies in constructing a Magic Power structure attached to the body's surface, a technique that will be frequently used in subsequent spells.
The Rejuvenation Technique, used to treat external injuries, has been rarely used since I learned it. After all, there are very few scenarios where this spell can be used. I can't exactly sit at the entrance of a hospital emergency room and collect patients, can I? That would be too much of a waste of time.
The Ingestion Spell was the most worthwhile spell Li Xingkong learned. With each day he ate Body Tempering Grass, the progress of this spell was also increasing day by day. Originally, he could only make do with absorbing Body Tempering Grass, but now he has gradually improved to the point that he can devour almost anything.
Six months ago, I might have had to consider whether I could even bite into a piece of steel. Now, eating a steel bar is no different from eating a spicy snack.
Most importantly, I've developed a better sense of taste, so now I don't find everything I eat tastes bad.
It's not that the food has become tastier; it's that the Ingestion Spell includes a small spell that alters the taste. Simply put, it tricks your nerve cells so that even though you're eating a piece of iron, this spell tells your brain that you're eating a piece of high-quality fatty pork belly.
It just goes to show that cultivators really go to great lengths for food.
How did they come up with such an unorthodox spell?
I recently learned the Wind Riding Spell, a travel spell. I can now fly on the wind, though it's still lacking in speed and can't compare to an airplane. However, it has the advantage of extremely low energy consumption and freedom of movement.
The Heavenly Eye Express Edition" is a self-created spell used to spy on and modify the internet. As long as there is a network signal, it can manipulate the signal. In the current Earth Star, it is considered a divine skill. The only problem is that it is only the beginning of practice.
Signal readings can only be done near a base station; you can't see too far.
If one Divine Sense, then the uses of this spell become even more extensive.
Restoration Technique, a healing spell used to treat his family members' illnesses. Because of his sufficient theoretical support in this area, he can now analyze and reconstruct this spell. It's better than nothing, but this is the first spell he needs to control externally, so it's still very valuable for him to learn from.
That's all the spells I've learned so far, and the only offensive spell I have is a Shotgun Spell, which is only good for easily defeating weaker opponents. I don't have a single spell that's truly effective against cultivators.
The main reason he didn't learn it was because there wasn't another cultivator available and he didn't need the skill.
There's only one defensive spell, the outdated Explosive Reactive Armor. While there's a need to learn more defensive spells, there's no rush; it's best to focus on your cultivation progress first.
Besides magic, there are also miscellaneous arts related to cultivating immortality.
There are many different kinds of cultivation arts, but due to the special circumstances of his own world, he cannot practice any of them, such as alchemy, talismans, medicine, food, arrays, artifacts, or divination. At present, the only thing he can learn is breeding, to become a spirit plant grower.
And his own breeding efforts have already begun to show results, namely the Body Tempering Grass he cultivated.
Theoretically speaking, Li Xingkong is quite different from the Lingzhi Fu that everyone knows.
All you need to do to grow spiritual plants is know how to plant them; the barrier to entry is very low, and you don't need any specific breeding skills.
What Li Xingkong is doing now is far more complex than that of a spiritual plant cultivator, which means that not many people will get involved in this profession.
After reviewing his cultivation methods so far, Li Xingkong gained an overall understanding of his progress. He realized that his current level of firepower on Earth Star was already in the third tier.
The first-order nuclear missiles are something we can't afford to provoke, but they are deterrent weapons and won't be used unless absolutely necessary.
The Second Sequence missiles are fast and have a long range. Their speed can reach tens of Mach, far exceeding our reaction speed. Currently, we have no way to resist them.
The third order consists of various main combat weapons for land warfare, such as tanks and aircraft.
Li Xingkong estimated that he was in the same category, possessing the ability to outshine others in certain aspects, but still having his own shortcomings and being unable to attend to all situations.
For example, right now, if you ask him to flip over a tank, that would be a piece of cake. But if you ask him to catch up with or shoot down an airplane, at his current speed, he can only take down old planes from World War I.
However, defending themselves against an aerial attack is generally not a problem.
Set yourself a small goal and strive to reach the Second Sequence as soon as possible!
