Looting the life force of demons to forge a golden body Martial God-Chapter 373 - 361: The Importance of the Three Major Attributes, The Confidence to Defy Higher Stages! Digest, Cultivate, and Embark Again!
Chapter 373: Chapter 361: The Importance of the Three Major Attributes, The Confidence to Defy Higher Stages! Digest, Cultivate, and Embark Again!
Attribute increases are not simply linear increases, but rather stepwise growths.
For instance, when a Martial Apprentice is on the verge of Foundation Establishment to become a Formal Martial Artist, the "Essence" attribute can generally reach 5 points.
This is also a rigid requirement for Foundation Establishment, as, at least physically, one must be able to withstand the consumption and pressure brought about by Foundation Establishment.
On this basis, for each additional point, physical strength can be increased by at least a quarter!
Although the magnitude of physical enhancement diminishes as the points increase, focusing on the three primary Attributes remains the most effective way to strengthen oneself.
This is precisely why Chu Feng, when able to allocate points, chose to first augment the "Vitality, Energy, and Spirit" Attributes—
He was the greatest beneficiary of attribute enhancement.
Reliant on his outrageously unreasonable tri-dimensional Attributes, he could even counter enemies two major levels above his own!
Only he could cheat by elevating his "Vitality, Energy, and Spirit" Attributes to the maximum right after each Realm advancement.
Other Martial Artists, including members of the Demon Clan, had to undergo rigorous training after breaking through their current Realm to fully unlock the potential of that Realm.
And every race had its focus, Demon Clan focused on the physique, Human Race focused on True Force, while Demon Clan concentrated on spiritual power.
Beyond their focus, the Human Race might intentionally train their physique, but they could never be as comprehensive as Chu Feng.
A Human Race Martial Artist who had just broken into the Zhou Tian Realm, having "Qi" Attributes reaching 100 was already considered a generational prodigy, usually, it was more around 60-80.
Having "Essence" Attributes at 80 was also considered outstanding among humans, while ordinary people averaged about 40-60.
As for "Spirit" Attributes... that wasn’t the Human Race’s strong point, better left unmentioned!
Many Martial Artists throughout their lives, except for when opening their brain acupoints might incidentally strengthen their spiritual power, would hardly engage in training it further.
Advancing to Yin Yang Realm, it’s common to find those whose spiritual power attribute is still below 50.
Only a minority of scholars, who focus on studying magic, manage to enhance their spiritual power through meditation, consuming magic potions, and other methods, but at the cost of almost completely giving up their Martial Arts.
This is why the Human Race struggles so much against the Demon Clan because the gap in spiritual power is hard to bridge.
That is why the Demon Annihilation Army has many warriors specialized in magic, just to counter the Demon Clan.
Now, with "Attribute Burst" upgraded to level three, capable of increasing 300 attribute points in two minutes, the enhancement brought forth is practically unimaginable!
Past experiences told Chu Feng that if he had been able to invest those three hundred points entirely into his physique, Scorpion-tail Lion Tribe Leader Od might not have had the chance to make a desperate counterattack, and would have been slain by his single strike!
’There would even be a chance to wrestle with the Hunyuan! With that, the plan to bait the Evil God and trap the enemies would be more assured!’
Chu Feng touched his gradually emerging stubbled chin, his heart surged with excitement.
...
By now, after the breakthrough to the Zhou Tian Realm, the greatest surprise had been fully appreciated.
Chu Feng clenched his fists, his heart brimming with overwhelming zest, almost wanting to rush into the battlefield right then to find a Demon Clan False God and smash its head!
But he immediately suppressed his boiling fighting spirit.
’The Realm is still not high enough, need to continue advancing, time to train!’
Chu Feng looked at the remaining 361 Attribute Points, originally intending to use them to upgrade his self-created Ultimate Skill "Demon-Breaking", but now thinking, it might be better to use them to advance his Realm first.
After all, pushing forward the progress of upgrading "Demon-Breaking" each time by 10% would cost nearly 50 attribute points.
By that calculation, to upgrade "Demon-Breaking" to Lower Heaven Tier would end up consuming nearly 500 attribute points!
Even exhausting all his Attribute Points would be insufficient.
’Who let me choose such a high blueprint for creation in the first place, Upper Earth Grade... And wanting to improve further, the marginal cost would be so high that even grandma wouldn’t recognize it!
Chu Feng had no choice but to continue opening his acupoints.
For each additional acupoint he opened, a new secret of the human body was unlocked, increasing his combat power!
This visible progress was indeed substantial.
With his mind set, Chu Feng cleared his thoughts and sank into a deep state of cultivation once again, embarking on the monotonous journey of opening and nurturing acupoints.
...
...
Three days later, Chu Feng stopped his cultivation because he had hardly any Attribute Points left.
He only kept 20 points to activate "Attribute Burst" in emergencies, investing all other Attribute Points into the grand endeavor of opening Zhou Tian Acupoints.
Though the consumption was huge, the effect was excellent, and Chu Feng had now opened and was nurturing 75 Zhou Tian Acupoints simultaneously!
Each acupoint opened and nurtured consumed less than 5 Attribute Points.
However, the power stored in the Zhou Tian Acupoints was not as significant as in the main acupoints. Each one opened didn’t provide Chu Feng with much of an enhancement.
By his estimates, opening every five acupoints approximately increased his combat power by 1%.
Of course, the cumulative effect was still considerable; 75 acupoints also increased his combat power by about 15%.
’According to the instructor’s explanation, there are about 700 acupoints discovered in the human body to date. By these calculations, opening all acupoints could more than double my strength!’
’This is without considering the bonuses from reaching the Nurturing Stage. If all are nurtured to the Polar Realm, my strength could increase even further.’
Chu Feng couldn’t help but sigh internally, each step truly was a transformation.
In the mid to late stages of Martial Arts cultivation, advancing through each realm drastically enhanced one’s strength!
Simultaneously opening 75 acupoints increased the upper limits of his "Vitality, Energy, Spirit" attributes by 9 points, bringing each attribute’s upper limit to 123.
At this point, his panel had only a lonely 20 Attribute Points left as reserves.
"Sleep well tonight. Tomorrow, we set off and continue causing trouble!"
Chu Feng rose from the Meditation Cushion where he had been sitting for three days and two nights, glanced at the dark sky outside the window, and walked to the door, thoroughly clearing out the fresh meal that had been delivered during dinnertime.
People had regularly delivered meals on time over the past few days but hadn’t disturbed his cultivation; the next mealtime they would take away the old and bring in the new.
He also placed the heads of several Grotto Heaven Realm members of the Demon Clan by the door for the meal delivery personnel to collect, to be recorded in the military merits book, offsetting his penalties.
Then he threw himself onto the bed in the bedroom and buried his head under the covers, falling into a deep sleep.
...
The next morning, Chu Feng was fully energized and dialed Secretary Wang’s number.
Unlike the previous time, Secretary Wang immediately greeted him with a smile overflowing with warmth, "Captain Chu, how are you feeling after your rest?"
Unable to resist, he gave away too much.JPG
"Pretty good," chuckled Chu Feng, "This place is very quiet, quite comfortable."
"Well, as long as you don’t feel uncomfortable, that’s good. Actually, Commander Lin has instructed that you can go out whenever you want; that thing hanging on the door is just for show," Secretary Wang said with a smile.
"Hey, I’ve been busy cultivating and thinking about how to better plague the Demon Clan. I haven’t had the mind to wander off," Chu Feng waved his hand and chuckled.
Hearing this, Secretary Wang’s eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is Captain Chu preparing to make a move again?"
