Chapter 27: Increased Power
Chapter 27: Increased Power
After Luan killed the two would-be kidnappers from the Zing Clan and removed the bones from their bodies, he returned by car to the hotel suite with the bones in a black backpack. In his room, Luan studied the bones and realized that their maximum physical strength was 8 times stronger than an ordinary man.
‘If I use it all together, I can still create the bone reconstruction pill, although I would also have to create a bone marrow cleansing pill.’ Luan calculated in order to better understand the bones he had in his hands.
‘But to create this pill, I’m going to need to get to Heaven and Earth Realm, Qi Refining Stage.’ Luan went to the plants, fruits, even seedlings, and got ready to create pills. Although he was not yet able to create more complicated pills, he would still be able to create simpler pills. One of these pills was the Qi Collection Pill.
As the energy of Heaven and Earth was more dense inside the training room, Luan went there with the ingredients. He had already bought a 30 cm cauldron for the purpose of creating pills, and now he would have the chance to use it.
Since he would not be able to create fire for a long time, seeing as the reserve of Qi stored in his body was low, Luan used the flames generated from a gas stove. It was a one-burner stove, which was used a lot in camping. Luan knew it was not ideal, but he could not be too demanding at that moment. Although he would lose a little of the effect because of that, it was still better than being without. Besides, the pill that he was going to make, the cost of the items was not very expensive.
Luan prepared everything, cutting all of the items and grinding those that needed to be ground. He then turned on the fire and as he needed blood from a living being superior to an ordinary human, the stronger the blood the better, Luan sacrificed some of his own. Cutting his fingertip, he let some of his blood drip into the cauldron.
Luan focused his attention on the cauldron and after adding his blood in the cauldron, he poured in coconut oil and green tea, and little by little, he added other key items. Afterwards, he closed the lid.
Luan’s voice began to resonate through the room as he closed his eyes. His lips moved smoothly making an indecipherable sound, filling the room. It was an impossible sound to understand or hear clearly. Seeming to synchronize with the incessant sound, the cauldron began to shudder. Multicolored lights began to spread all over the place, filling the air. The sound of the song continued to echo, making the room fill with bright lights.
*Poof!*
With the sound of the cauldron lid clacking, Luan opened his eyes and turned off the fire. Sweat dripped down his forehead. Alchemy was not an easy thing for him to do with his current level of Qi, however, he smiled as he opened the lid of the cauldron and saw that at the bottom of the cauldron were three milky pills in the middle of the rest of the ashes of the ingredients that were not able to become pills.
Taking the three pills, Luan sat down with his legs crossed and swallowed a pill. Upon doing so, he was amazed by the rich Qi of the pill that spread throughout his body. On a scale of 1 to 10, Luan would say that the quality of this pill was a 5. Although not very high, it helped him to break the limit of his body. He measured his body’s strength and was pleased that it managed to become 27 times stronger than an ordinary man.
Unlike the standard training using a technique, the effect of the pill was different since it did not necessarily have a limit that could be digested and strengthened. In addition, Luan felt a strong desire to go to the bathroom…
1 hour later, Luan came out of the bathroom. He did what he had to do and took a shower. Wrapped in a towel, he went to his room to put on a new set of clothes. Afterward, he returned to the training room and swallowed the other two pills. With the second pill, although he got stronger, it was not enough to help him break the limit of his body. With the third pill, it only added a bit to his body strength.
‘I’m going to create some new pills tomorrow…’ Luan thought as he felt tired mentally. After putting everything away, he went to take another shower and then went to sleep.

The next morning, Luan woke up in a good mood. Getting stronger by using the pills yesterday caused him to be closer to his goal. When he got out of bed, he did his morning routine and then went into the living room.
“Good Morning,” he said when he saw Ingrid and Cristina talking while sitting around the table.
“Good morning, Luan,” Ingrid said with a smile.
“Good morning, Master,” Cristina said politely.
Sitting on a chair next to the table, Luan took a piece of toast and buttered it. After chewing, he said, “You girls woke up early.”
“It’s already 7:30. You were the one who woke up late,” Ingrid laughed.
“I see…” Luan hadn’t seen the time yet, so he assumed it was before 7:00 am.
As soon as they finished eating, they all brushed their teeth and started training.
Around 14:00, Luan stopped meditating. He didn’t see the girls in the room, which made him assume that they had finished training. He then went to his room and picked up the necessary items to create the Collect Qi pill.
1 hour after Luan started forging pills, he held 7 milky pills in his hand. He was lucky to have forged 4 of the pills at once.
“I believe that with these pills, I can break the limit of being 30 times stronger than an ordinary man.” Sitting on the floor with his legs crossed in the lotus position, Luan ate the first pill. Gradually the Qi inside the pill spread throughout his body.
The first pill alone almost made him break the limit of 28 times stronger than an ordinary man. Luan took a deep breath, and swallowed another pill.
Inside his body, a whirlwind of Qi formed and spread the Qi energy to all the organs, skin, and bones in his body. Luan felt stronger and stronger and that’s when he broke the limit of 28 times stronger than an ordinary man.
Opening his eyes, he let out a long hot breath. He felt his whole body heat up; he knew that this way of strengthening himself was not the best and was also shortening the life span of the training room’s formation. However, his instincts said he needed to be strong soon; he felt urgency from the Zing Clan. Although he could now go against most of them, when he arrived in front of the village gate of Clan Zing, he felt the presence of someone who was very close to the Third Order – someone with strength 40 times stronger than the average man.
Not wanting to take the risk, Luan wanted to get stronger even faster. Then, he could create a new formation when he returned to Jurerê Internacional.
Clearing his mind, Luan swallowed the next pill, and then he swallowed a fourth pill, leaving only three. The power grew within him, Luan saw the limit of his strength increase to 29 times. Just as he calculated, he hoped that the final three pills would help him to be 30 times stronger than an ordinary man.
After swallowing the last pill, a vortex formed on top of Luan’s head, and the same happened inside his own body, strengthening every cell in his body. Luan then broke the limit of the human body, being now 30 times stronger than an ordinary man.
‘Now I can use the technique: Negative White Dragon Transformation…’ Although he wanted to do this now, he needed to use a set of body movements to clean up the impurities from the pills left in his body. Although it was not able to clean 100%, it would be at least 50%.
It was almost 6:00 pm and Luan had already used his body technique and had also meditated. In his body, a lot of impurity remained and a strong desire to defecate was present.
Almost 1 hour later, Luan left the bathroom feeling refreshed. He saw himself in the mirror and noticed that he had become even more handsome. He put on a new set of clothes and went to the training room.
When he returned to the training room, he sat on the floor, and prepared to use the technique: Negative White Dragon Transformation.
