Single-Mindedly Increasing His Strength

[Age 16: Your river of Qi and Blood stretched across most of the Nine Provinces, and the phenomenon of purple qi coming from the east for three thousand li made countless people bow in worship. The Emperor Jiaqing bestowed upon you the title of Great Wheel Wisdom King and granted you the land within a hundred li of Shaolin Temple as a Buddhist kingdom on earth. The major schools of Buddhism all came to Shaolin Temple of their own accord and presented you with countless rare treasures. You became the universally recognized Buddha's son of Buddhism, and all Buddhist monks were willing to follow your commands!]

[Age 17: The Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Fists you created became a highly sought-after Buddhist cultivation method, and every temple wanted to receive it as a gift from you. You found this far too troublesome, so you authorized Shaolin Temple to print it in books and granted virtually every request. Because you did not attach much importance to the Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Fists, almost every major temple obtained it. It spread ever more widely, until practically everyone had a copy!]

[Age 18: You tried to teach the Longevity Instruction to the Shaolin monks, but Qi and Blood that had undergone six qualitative transformations could only withstand the gentle power of moonlight and could not contain the violent power of sunlight at all. The Shaolin monks attempted to practice Five Qi Converge at the Origin, but discovered that their Qi and Blood after six qualitative transformations was too fragile to withstand the impact of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi with different attributes. They could only use the power of moonlight in conjunction with one of the five elements. Unable to achieve either harmony between yin and yang or a cycle of the five elements, they found the results greatly diminished!]

[Age 20: The Emperor Jiaqing died, and the Emperor Daoguang ascended the throne. Seven Gang Force national martial arts grandmasters hostile to the Great Qing Dynasty attempted to infiltrate the imperial palace and steal the Imperial Seal of the Realm to strike at the Great Qing Dynasty's national fortune, but were driven back by ten Gang Force national martial arts grandmasters guarding the palace!]

[Age 24: You had no idea how to Shatter the Void and See the Indestructible Spirit, so you gave up studying it and began focusing on how to increase your strength. You began by studying the Three Channels and Seven Chakras of Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism!]

[Age 26: The number of Gang Force national martial arts grandmasters in the Great Qing Dynasty grew substantially, and the dynasty sought to force the various schools and sects into submission. However, people of the martial world were naturally unwilling to submit to such restrictions. Three hundred Gang Force national martial arts grandmasters went to the Capital together, frightening the Emperor Daoguang into hastily sending people to negotiate peace!]

[Age 27: The Emperor Daoguang learned that the son of the Bordered Blue Banner's lord had once offended you at Shaolin Temple. He sent the banner lord to Shaolin Temple to apologize to you and tactfully aired his grievances, saying that those with martial skills defied the law. As the number of Gang Force national martial arts grandmasters grew, crimes across the land had risen sharply, and there had even been massacres of entire cities. Although you detested the Manchu Qing court, you decided to lend a hand for the sake of the people's right to survive. You reached an agreement with the Manchu Qing court: it would collect all kinds of cultivation method materials for you, and you would give it one Six-Revolution Golden Pill each year!]

[Age 28: Manchu Qing experts who had used Six-Revolution Golden Pills to enter the Dao through martial arts killed thirteen Gang Force national martial arts grandmasters whose crimes were beyond measure. This greatly intimidated the people of the martial world, and crimes across the land dropped sharply!]

[Age 29: The leaders of the various schools and sects brought you all kinds of cultivation method materials and asked you for Six-Revolution Golden Pills. You offered different terms of exchange according to how useful the methods were as references!]

[Age 36: With the help of countless eminent monks of Esoteric Buddhism, you finally comprehended the mysteries of the Three Channels and Seven Chakras. Your strength doubled!]

[Age 40: The First Opium War broke out, and an expert from the Great Qing Dynasty who had entered the Dao through martial arts easily shattered Britain's oceangoing fleet!]

[Age 46: You discovered that most of the Manchu Qing court's cultivation method materials came from Shamanism. You had never even heard of the vast majority of the ideas they contained, and you were very curious!]

[Age 50: Gang Force national martial arts grandmasters split into two extremes. The powerhouses who had used Six-Revolution Golden Pills to undergo six qualitative transformations of their Qi and Blood and enter the Dao through martial arts began calling themselves Gang Jin National Martial Arts Myths!]

[Age 51: The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom rose in rebellion. Seven Gang Jin National Martial Arts Myths loyal to the Manchu Qing court and five Gang Jin National Martial Arts Myths hostile to the Manchu Qing erupted into an earth-shaking battle. Because both sides had reservations, they ultimately chose to stop fighting and make peace!]

[Age 56: You mastered the cultivation method of shaman warriors, and your strength doubled, but you had no idea how shaman sorcerers cultivated!]

[Age 61: Empress Dowager Cixi launched the Xinyou Coup, executed eight regent ministers, and established a regime in which she ruled from behind the curtain. To consolidate her political position, Empress Dowager Cixi invited you to the Capital to chant scriptures and pray for blessings. Absorbed in studying the cultivation method of shaman sorcerers, you paid Empress Dowager Cixi no attention at all!]

[Age 66: You discovered that the cultivation method of shaman sorcerers was connected to the totem worship of primitive religions, and something vaguely occurred to you!]

[Age 73: Empress Dowager Cixi lifted the curtain and returned power to the emperor, declaring that she wished to come to Shaolin Temple in person to worship Buddha and seek scriptures. Absorbed in studying the cultivation method of shaman sorcerers, you paid Empress Dowager Cixi no attention at all. Receiving no response, Empress Dowager Cixi felt that she had pressed a warm face against a cold backside and swore that she never wanted to hear anything about you again!]

[Age 76: You gained a preliminary mastery of the cultivation method of shaman sorcerers and created your first totem!]

[Age 86: You recalled the Five Elements Divine Beasts formed by the reflection of the power of the five elements when you achieved Five Qi Converge at the Origin. You improved the cultivation method of shaman sorcerers and created a totem divine dragon stretching three hundred meters. You decided to name this move Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon!]

[Age 96: You completely mastered the cultivation method of shaman sorcerers and condensed seven totem divine beasts based on yin, yang, and the five elements. With the support of the seven totem divine beasts, you could unleash seven times your strength for a short period!]

[Age 106: You began studying the cultivation methods of the Nine Li. You discovered that the Nine Li originated with Chiyou, the legendary Lord of War, and the cultivation methods of the School of Military Strategy gave you great inspiration!]

[Age 116: You discovered that the cultivation method Chiyou had passed down was purely a way to temper the physique. It looked just like the crudest external martial art in the martial world, but careful study revealed that this was simply the great Dao reduced to its simplest form!]

[Age 126: You completely mastered the cultivation method passed down by Chiyou. You deeply regretted that this was only Chiyou's inheritance from a national martial arts world, rather than Chiyou's inheritance from the legendary Primordial Wilderness. Your strength merely doubled!]

[Age 136: You studied the cultivation methods of the Miao Lands and found Gu insects very interesting. You received a Golden Silkworm Gu as a gift from the holy maiden of the Miao Lands and nurtured it until its Qi and Blood had undergone seven qualitative transformations. When you discovered that the Golden Silkworm Gu had exhausted its potential, you returned it to the holy maiden of the Miao Lands. This Golden Silkworm Gu became a sacred treasure of the Miao Lands, capable of allowing every generation's holy maiden to achieve seven qualitative transformations of Qi and Blood!]

[Age 146: You studied the Bushido of Fusang and discovered that its Eight Gates Dunjia was like Italian pasta, Japanese sashimi, Korean kimchi, and European bone china: all had actually spread from China. You felt that Eight Gates Dunjia was extremely valuable as a reference!]

[Age 156: You mastered Eight Gates Dunjia, and your strength increased by eighty percent!]

[Age 166: You began studying Fusang's onmyoji and discovered that they originated from the School of Yin and Yang, which in turn originated from the Daoist School. You felt that every change represented a major theoretical breakthrough and was of tremendous value!]
