Chapter 144: Gang Qi Realm!

"Bodhi seed?"

When Fang Yu saw Ye Fan hand the Bodhi seed over, his expression was a little strange.

This Bodhi seed was a great treasure on Mars, but at the time Ye Fan had obtained it, and he had not gone to take it.

"Brother Fang cultivates fire-attribute divine abilities; with the help of the Bodhi seed, he should be able to comprehend some principles."

Ye Fan spoke.

The Bodhi seed had helped him far too much, letting him comprehend far, far too many things—such as the Dao and principles above the Dao Scripture. Without the Bodhi seed, he could never have comprehended them.

Although Brother Fang cultivates the brain, with the help of the Bodhi seed, he should also be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"Good, let me take a look. I do indeed need to comprehend a bit right now."

The moment Fang Yu grasped the Bodhi seed in his hand, he immediately felt a strange rhythm of the Dao being transmitted over, as if it came from a great power of the primordial ages, displaying the rhythm of the Dao between heaven and earth to him at this moment.

Fang Yu's mind stirred slightly, and another meditation cushion appeared in the void, landing beneath him.

The meditation cushion from the Great Lei Yinsi and the Bodhi seed, at this very moment, were both lending Fang Yu a hand.

Azure flames rose, like a stretch of azure sea, shrouding Fang Yu's entire body, and from time to time even making the sound of waves rolling.

The great sea roared, yet it was not a sea, but a kind of azure flame, representing terrifying power. If this true qi were to sweep out, everything within a hundred li would turn into a sea of fire in an instant.

The young Xiao Tingting could not see the danger of this azure flame; she only felt it was wondrous. This Brother Fang seemed even more wondrous than the other two brothers, his body filled with an aura that made her feel awe.

But she could also sense that this Brother Fang was a good person.

Time passed. The sea of azure flames steamed in the void for a full day, and Fang Yu also sat cross-legged in the void for a full day.

Ye Fan and Pang Bo both went to eat, but Fang Yu was still cultivating.

"That young man isn't eating? I made something delicious today."

Old man Jiang of the Jiang family looked at Fang Yu, who was still cultivating high in the sky, and carefully asked Ye Fan.

"Old man Jiang, you don't need to worry about Brother Fang. Brother Fang is a cultivator; going a few days and nights without eating is no big deal."

"Not eating is fine too…"

Old man Jiang could not imagine such people existed in the world, but since Young man Ye had said so, he would not disturb them.

The group ate a meal of sweet-and-sour roe deer meat, very delicious.

Ye Fan had brought delicacies from Earth to the Northern Dipper, and everyone ate to their heart's content.

After the meal, Xiao Tingting took the initiative to wash the dishes.

This scene made Ye Fan and Pang Bo feel a little ashamed; the two of them hadn't lifted a finger, yet Xiao Tingting had gone to wash the dishes.

Just as the two were wondering whether they should do something, the azure sea of flames in the void began to boil.

"Heaven and earth's true gang, condense into my body. Endless fire, refine the true into gang!"

Fang Yu's voice rang out across the field, and the azure sea of flames boiled even more violently, actually ten times stronger than before.

At this moment, the true qi in Fang Yu's mind began to crystallize continuously, and then the crystals melted again, transforming into wisps of Daoist Gang Qi.

Within this Daoist Gang Qi appeared a liquid form, covered with countless azure flame patterns, as if it had become a true sea of azure flames.

In his mind, the circulation of true qi nearly increased tenfold; all the true qi began to undergo massive transformation, converting into Daoist Gang Qi.

At this very moment, the large amount of qi and blood in Fang Yu's body combined with the Daoist Gang Qi, his physical form changed once again, and an even more violent, terrifying aura radiated from his body.

Fang Yu suddenly moved. His neck twisted, able to twist a full three hundred and sixty degrees. His arm, with a casual grab, could reach any part of his body, and his mouth could also bite any part of his body.

In other words, at this moment, the bones in his body seemed to have vanished. When soft, he was like a ball of cotton, but once the Daoist Gang Qi filled them, his bones became like cold iron nurtured for ten million years—soft or hard as he wished.

At the same time, the large amount of qi and blood in his body transformed once again into spirit, and then into magic power and true qi, echoing in concert with the Daoist Gang Qi.

Fang Yu could feel that within his flesh and blood there were countless tiny particles, golden and black-and-white in color, which also entered his mind and transformed into a massive amount of magic power.

These were the divine medicines of the Shrouding Heaven Realm, and the Yin-Yang Wan Shou Dan, a top-grade elixir of the Yuhua Sect, which still had not been fully consumed, and were now being developed once again.

Vast amounts of spirit surged upward, and in his head came a string of firecracker-like explosions—the apertures of the divine *something* in his head were being blasted open one after another.

The surging Daoist Gang Qi washed down, combining with qi and blood, and from every pore on his body burst forth rolling gang winds, fiercer than the attacks of a magic artifact.

In other words, the moment Fang Yu circulated his qi, the gang winds shooting from his pores were already comparable to a magic artifact.

All the true qi, under tremendous pressure, transformed entirely into Daoist Gang Qi.

The fire essence qi from the Fire Domain was also drawn out at this moment, falling into the azure sea and becoming raw material for the increase in strength.

Strength was increasing at tremendous speed at this very moment.

Three thousand Xuanhuang steed-strength.

Five thousand Xuanhuang steed-strength.

Eight thousand Xuanhuang steed-strength!

Ten thousand Xuanhuang steed-strength!

At this moment, steed-strength seemed to be just a number, but everyone knew how difficult it was to increase even a single steed-strength.

One steed-strength was a full five thousand jin of force.

Below the Divine Ability Secret Realm, increasing five thousand jin of force might take several years.

But now, Fang Yu's strength had increased by hundreds, thousands of steed-strength.

Fang Yu felt his strength increasing at tremendous speed. Originally, at the peak of the True Qi Realm, his strength had been one thousand five hundred Xuanhuang steed-strength, but now it had actually increased to ten thousand Xuanhuang steed-strength.

Such magic power—only an expert at the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, Heavenly Man Realm, would possess it.

Yet he was now only at the 3rd Stage of Divine Abilities, Gang Qi Realm, and already possessed ten thousand Xuanhuang steed-strength.

His strength had now reached fifty million jin.

What kind of concept was that?

He could not even imagine how terrifying a casual strike of his would be now.

Vast divine abilities, boundless magic power—after breaking through to the Gang Qi Realm, this kind of dramatic increase in strength was truly delightful.

"Ten thousand steed-strength."

Fang Yu suddenly stood up. The boundless sea of azure flames around him was swallowed in a single gulp, and with the slightest movement of his body, heaven and earth seemed about to tremble.

This was a terrifying kind of power.

Now, with every step Fang Yu took, the entire small town would shake three times over.

"This is too terrifying. Can a person's power increase this rapidly?"

Pang Bo watched, dumbstruck, feeling that it was unscientific.

He had been cultivating diligently all this time, and had finally, with great difficulty, stepped into the Life Spring Realm. His increase in strength was actually not much, but he could now fly, which was at least a good thing.

And now, watching that Brother Fang, after breaking through a single realm, the aura he unleashed seemed capable of shattering even mountains, a single person radiating a presence like thousands of troops and horses rolling in.

Instantly, he could not help being shaken to the core.

"This is just too unscientific!"
