Having reviewed his cultivation progress, Li Xingkong had a general idea of what to do next.
First of all, spiritual cultivation is the foundation of everything, and we must not slacken our efforts in this regard. We must proceed step by step, one step at a time.
Secondly, since we now want to match the firepower of the Second Sequence, we need to consider which direction to start from.
I'm like a hexagonal warrior now, with all attributes at A, but the firepower in the Second Sequence is different.
Take missiles for example. They're SSS-level in both power and speed, no problem at all, but their defense is subpar.
It's not that low defense is bad, but missiles are meant to be used for bombing, so what's the point of defense?
Maintaining a well-rounded warrior stat until all attributes are SSS+ is possible, but it will take a lot of time.
If you want to improve your combat power as quickly as possible, it's better to start by breaking through a specific attribute.
Li Xingkong's biggest problem right now is that, given the modern firepower that can easily strike beyond visual range, his reach is somewhat limited.
The only Shotgun Spell it possesses can only reach a distance of about 100 meters, which is completely inadequate in modern terms.
On the other hand, it's too slow.
Leaving aside the speed of missiles, even modern fighter jets can reach speeds close to Mach 3.
While Li Xingkong could react to speeds of three times the speed of sound, running or flying at that speed would be quite difficult.
It's important to understand that his current hypothetical enemy isn't any human being, but rather modern firepower.
Therefore, in my subsequent practice, I also need to focus on these two aspects.
Putting everything else aside, you need to be fast enough to escape, right?
Although he couldn't imagine what could be chasing him.
Having roughly finalized his plans for the rest of his cultivation journey, Li Xingkong checked the details of the rented land.
He had to ask a friend for help to rent the land; he felt it would be a waste of time to do it himself.
" Bade, you've rented almost 50 acres of land, all contiguous, and you still can't rent it all out?"
I opened V and saw a message from my old squad leader Wu Yan.
That's right, the person who helped me these past few days was my old class monitor. Before going to the Prisoner Continent, he was still studying hard for the exam, but after returning this year, he has successfully passed the exam.
That should be about it, that should be enough.
50 mu is enough for me to cultivate. If I want to expand further, I can consider it.
"When are you coming to complete the formalities? I've already prepared all the contracts and stuff for you."
Wu Yan took a picture; a thick stack of contracts was piled up.
"That's awesome, class monitor! Let's do it tomorrow. It's my treat when we get there. Thank you so much for your help."
This matter was handled much faster than Li Xingkong had imagined. He originally thought it would take several weeks, but he didn't expect his old squad leader to get it done so quickly.
"Hey, it didn't take me much trouble. I have friends at work who helped out. With our relationship, handling something like this wouldn't be difficult."
Wu Yan replied quickly, so it seems he's alright on his end too.
Although working in townships is indeed busy, most of the busy time is spent on the road, either driving to the countryside or driving back to the town.
I spend half the day on the road.
"You've helped me so much, why are you being so polite? Invite your friend too, they've helped me so much, let's have a meal together."
Asking for help is a good idea, and it's only right to treat people to a meal afterward. Although Wu Yan also asked friends for help, it's ultimately his own business, and he couldn't let the class monitor spend money on the final meal.
"Oh dear..."
The squad leader was about to decline, but Li Xingkong made the decision directly.
"I'm coming to see you tomorrow. Are you free tomorrow?"
Tomorrow is the weekend, and usually nothing much happens.
"Okay, then tomorrow."
Seeing how determined Li Xingkong was, Wu Yan didn't refuse and they agreed to have dinner together the next day.
After the matter was discussed, Li Xingkong put down his phone.
In fact, he can now do without his phone. With his magical abilities, he can do anything his phone can do on his own.
However, the habit of subconsciously using a mobile phone is hard to break in a short time.
After putting away his phone and watering his vegetable garden as usual, Li Xingkong went back to his yard and began his cultivation.
Cultivation knows no time, and Li Xingkong felt as if he had only cultivated for a short while.
His biological clock had already started urging him on.
When I opened my eyes, it was already the morning of the second day.
Recently, his practice has been taking longer and longer. He feels that if he were to complete a full practice session now, it would probably take him almost three months to go into seclusion.
It's comparable to the hibernation of wild animals.
After cleaning up a bit, Li Xingkong headed towards the countryside.
I have dinner plans with someone today, and since he's the one treating, I naturally need to find a restaurant and make reservations in advance.
Although rural areas can't compare to the hustle and bustle of the city, there are still plenty of affordable restaurants, especially in rural areas where there are many banquets for weddings and funerals, and many restaurants specialize in catering for these occasions.
The biggest advantage of this kind of shop is that its reputation is truly built up spoonful by spoonful.
If the food isn't good, then shut down; if the vegetables aren't fresh, then shut down; if the taste isn't to your liking, then shut down too.
Compared to the various forms of commercial competition among restaurants in the city, this kind of competition among restaurants in the countryside is actually more primitive.
If you do well, you'll have a great reputation; if you don't, you won't even be able to open a shop.
Li Xingkong still prefers this approach, since it's all about earning a living through ability.
Arriving early at the most renowned restaurant in the village, Li Xingkong ordered a table full of dishes, and even had time to check the ingredients for his lunch.
Right now, they're still hopping around in the shop's backyard.
After ordering the meal, Li Xingkong arrived at Wu Yan's workplace.
Wu Yan's workplace is located in the very center of the township, which is also the liveliest place in the township. Li Xingkong arrived early enough, but the morning market formed by the comings and goings of people here seemed to have opened even earlier.
After dodging many people coming and going, Li Xingkong finally squeezed into the office building.
There aren't many people in their workplace right now; the lobby is still empty.
I'm here.
Li Xingkong sent a message, and soon Wu Yan emerged from a door at the back of the hall.
"Long time no see! You've gotten so handsome!"
They met again, several years after their last encounter.
Wu Yan is still the same as before, which is normal. People generally don't change much after they reach adulthood and before the age of 30.
When Li Xingkong met some of his junior high school classmates last time, he found that they all looked exactly the same as they did back then.
Nothing has changed at all, as if time has stood still.
Li Xingkong, however, has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years due to his embarkation on the path of cultivation.
If it weren't for the fact that her appearance hasn't changed much, she wouldn't have recognized him upon meeting him.
