Chapter 31 Basic Breathing Technique

Level 10

Jiang City – Longquan District.

“Chu Zhou, you obtained first place in the elite trial. This is the genetic potion rewarded by the city hall. Use your fingerprint to open it.”

A young woman in a work uniform handed Chu Zhou a sealed alloy box.

The genetic potion had finally arrived!

Chu Zhou suppressed the excitement in his

heart and ran his finger across the top of the alloy box.

“Beep! Fingerprint verified!”

An electronically synthesized voice sounded. Then, the alloy box opened, revealing a tube of light blue potion.

There was also a white label on the syringe.

There were two words written on it: Genetic potion.

“Chu Zhou, please sign this if you’re sure there’s no problem!”

The woman in uniform said to Chu Zhou with a smile, a trace of envy flashing in her eyes.

This was a genetic potion that could change a person’s fate!

The market price was 10 million.

However, 10 million Alliance Dollars did not

mean one could get it.

Because almost no one would sell it.

Chu Zhou quickly signed and the woman in uniform left.

BANG!

Chu Zhou closed the door. His sister, Chu Yu, and father, Chu Donglai, immediately walked

over.

“Big Brother, is this the genetic potion?”

Chu Yu’s eyes widened as he curiously examined the light blue genetic potion.

“That’s right. This is the genetic potion.”

Chu Zhou smiled and reached out to stroke his

sister’s little head.

“Your big brother will be a true martial artist soon.”

“Big Brother, you’re really amazing. You actually obtained first place and obtained the gene potion!” Chu Yu praised. Her eyes lit up, as if she suddenly thought of something. “Hehe, Big Brother, remember what you said. You have to give me five million Alliance Dollars as pocket money when you become a martial artist!”

“Got it, you money-grubber!” Chu Zhou snapped.

His father, Chu Donglai, did not speak. He only looked at Chu Zhou gently.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the phone in his pocket vibrated

slightly.

Chu Zhou took out his phone and saw an additional notification.

“1,000,000 Alliance Dollars entered your account XXXX at 10:00 a.m. on January 2nd. Your balance is 1,016,000 Alliance Dollars.”

Another notification came before Chu Zhou could figure out where the money came from.

“100,000 Alliance Dollars entered your account XXXX at 10:00 a.m. on January 2nd. Your balance is 1,116,000 Alliance Dollars.” Then, Chu Zhou received two more messages.

“Chu Zhou, the city government has specially rewarded you with one million Alliance Dollars in view of your great contribution in the elite trial.”

“Chu Zhou, the school is rewarding you with 100,000 Alliance Dollars since you won first place in the elite trial and brought honor to

our school.”

Chu Zhou finally knew how these two sums of money came about after seeing the last two

messages.

At this moment, Chu Zhou only wanted to say

one word-Exhilarating!

“Wow, 1.1 million as prize money. Brother, you’ve made a fortune!”

His younger sister, Chu Yu, leaned over. She immediately cried out in excitement when she saw the notifications and text messages on Chu Zhou’s phone. Her eyes almost turned

into money symbols.

This was the first time she had seen so much money in her life.

“I can switch to consuming higher level

monster meat with this sum of money. The

higher the level of monster meat, the faster I can increase my attribute points…”

Chu Zhou thought to himself and decided not

to inject the genetic potion so quickly. He would first accumulate attribute points and raise his Basic Breathing Technique to a higher level to increase his Life Field Energy.

In that case, his success rate in advancing to a martial artist would be even higher when combined with the genetic potion. Chu Zhou didn’t even go to school anymore.

He took leave and ate Beast General Level

monster meat that cost 30,000 Alliance Dollars per catty every day.

He basically ate one catty of monster meat per meal.

Three meals a day meant three catties of meat.

In other words, his meals cost 90,000 Alliance Dollars a day.

It was ridiculously expensive.

His father, Chu Donglai, only earned a total of

36,000 Alliance Dollars a year. It was not even enough for him to eat for a day.

He would not have been able to afford it if not

for the two bonuses.

However, the attribute points increased with the Beast General Level meat was nine times more than that of Beast Soldier Level meat.

Beast soldier level monster meat could increase 0.45 attribute points per meal, which

meant that he could increase 1.35 attribute points per day.

Beast General Level monster meat, on the

other hand, could increase 12.15 attribute

points a day.

His efficiency increased exponentially! Therefore, Chu Zhou felt that it was worth it

even though the price was much more expensive.

12 days later, Chu Zhou only had 36,000

Alliance Dollars left in his bank account. Back to poverty!

However, Chu Zhou looked at the Attribute

Board and smiled.

…

Name: Chu Zhou (Advanced Apprentice, Life Field Energy 4.5)

Attribute points: 146.9 (+145.8)

Basic Breathing Technique (D-rank): Level 5

(Upgradeable)

Curved Hand Blade (D-rank): Level Five -Intent Realm (Upgradable) Sharp Blade Kick (D-rank): Level 4

Perfection Realm (Upgradeable)

—

His attribute points had increased by 145.8

points. I’m rich! “Upgrade the Basic Breathing Technique!”

With a thought, he let the Attribute Board upgrade the Basic Breathing Technique until it could no longer be upgraded.

The Attribute Board flashed crazily instantly.

This time, the Attribute Board flashed more violently than ever.

All the information on it became blurry, leaving behind afterimages. Chu Zhou automatically entered a cultivation state and activated the Basic Breathing Technique at the same time. Countless refreshing cosmic energy surged into Chu Zhou’s body in the dark.

A tsunami of energy swept through every

muscle, every bone, every cell in his body…

All the cells in his body and even his genes were crazily devouring the energy and undergoing a transformation.

Chu Zhou slowly opened his eyes after an unknown period of time. An invisible and intense life force spread out from his body. A gust of wind blew in the room.

Name: Chu Zhou (Advanced Apprentice, Life

Field Energy 7)

Attribute points: 26.9

Basic Breathing Technique (B-rank): Level 10 (Colored Vortex Form) (Unupgradable) Curved Hand Blade (D-rank): Level Five – Intent Realm (Unupgradable)

Sharp Blade Kick (D-rank): Level Four – Perfection Realm (Upgradeable)

“Basic Breathing Technique Level 10. Life

Field Energy has broken through to Level 7.” Chu Zhou looked at the change in information on his attribute panel and was overjoyed. Level 10 of the Basic Breathing Technique had already far exceeded the original limit. Chu Zhou sensed it carefully and made a rough calculation in his heart. He could absorb about 30 units of cosmic energy in one

circulation with Level 10 of the Basic Breathing Technique.

All breathing techniques were basically

divided into three levels.

The higher the level, the higher the efficiency

of absorbing cosmic energy. According to his understanding, even if a

C-rank breathing technique was cultivated to the third level of the highest realm, it could

only absorb 27 units of cosmic energy with one circulation.

A B-rank breathing technique at the first level would absorb 15 units of cosmic energy with one circulation. He would be able to absorb 30 units of cosmic energy with one circulation only if he could cultivate it to the second level.

In other words, the tenth level of the Basic Breathing Technique had already surpassed all C-rank breathing techniques and was comparable to the second level of the B-rank breathing technique.

“Did I upgrade the Basic Breathing Technique to a level comparable to the B-Rank Breathing

Technique in such a short time?”

Chu Zhou muttered to himself as the corners

of his mouth curled up slightly.
