Chapter 1466: Chi Refining Technique, 40 Breakthrough Point, and an Extra Stat

Luke had two reasons for doing so.

Firstly, he had a lot of things to deal with after the battle. Every time he allocated stat points to his basic stats, it was a good opportunity to observe the changes to his body and the system. He couldn’t waste it.

Secondly, his Dexterity was about to hit 40, which was a critical juncture.

He still remembered how it felt when his Strength and Mental Strength broke 40.

When his Dexterity reached 40, his body would react violently, and he might be unable to continue fighting.

Hence, by the time he was done sorting things out, two days had passed.

That afternoon, Luke and his clone arrived at the New Hope lab in Nassau County. Entering his private basement, he took out the medical A.I. program, Osiris, and various instruments and medication from his inventory.

“Osiris, check the instruments and the meds. Once you’re prepared, we’ll get started,” he said.

“Yes, sir,” replied Osiris.

A few minutes later, it said, “You can start now, sir.”

Luke nodded and lay down on the treatment bed. “Let’s get started.”

Osiris immediately instructed the various robotic arms to work on Luke.

His clone silently lay on another treatment bed and was surrounded by another bunch of robotic arms.

This was the first time his stat had reached a breakthrough point after he acquired his clone.

One of the things Luke was also going to test was whether his clone experienced any abnormalities during this process.

When Osiris reported that everything was ready, Luke tapped his Dexterity lightly, and 29 (Star of Justice +10) became 30 (Star of Justice +10).

An intense and indescribable feeling encompassed his entire body.

It was an itchy, twisty feeling, as if electricity was running through his body.

If he had to describe it with one word, it was — unbearable.

The feeling covered every part of his body, not just his skin and muscles, but also all his insides.

The clone couldn’t help but curse, “F*ck!”

Actually, it was Luke himself who wanted to curse, but he was already no longer coherent, and could only bellow indistinctly.

His clone was in better condition, so it did all the cursing.

This also meant that Luke’s ability to multitask was now useless.

Under this unimaginably unbearable sensation, both he and the clone acted in unison, and cursed at the same time.

It was a good thing he hadn’t leveled up during the battle! The thought flashed through Luke’s mind, but it quickly disappeared.

He still had important experiments to complete.

He couldn’t use his telekinesis.

Unable to focus, his telekinesis, which was usually as fierce as a dragon, was like a small earthworm. It dissipated as soon as it was activated.

He couldn’t use Annihilation.

This ability was too powerful and dangerous to lose control of.

After feeling it out briefly and finding it very hard to control, Luke immediately gave up.

He couldn’t use Elementary Muscle Control.

His muscles, which had always done as they were told, were like machines that had short-circuited; there was a bit of a reaction, but they couldn’t operate.

Finally, he activated the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique.

Uh… It worked? Luke was both surprised and delighted.

Someone who first learned the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique needed to focus and be still.

After learning the basics, however, as long as a person practiced to an extremely proficient degree, it would become almost instinctual, and only a person’s posture and mental state would have any effect on the efficiency of their cultivation.

Whether it was posture or pain, the chi would automatically flow in the most familiar way at just a thought.

At that moment, Luke’s body was undergoing a special transformation. He could only cultivate in the most basic manner, and couldn’t attack or defend.

At the same time, a system notification popped up. “Use credit points to replenish the energy required for the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique?”

Luke immediately chose yes.

When he was cultivating, he usually consumed 5 to 10 credit points an hour; now, he was using 1 credit point every two minutes.

When he had first started cultivating, Luke had still used food and nutrition to keep up the formation of his chi, until he noticed that his clone always consumed more credit points when it was cultivating.

So, he had asked the system a question.

Sure enough, the system could turn credit points into energy for use in refining chi.

Luke usually only recharged with credit points as a backup measure. After all, he was used to eating.

Now that his body was undergoing a transformation, however, he needed a lot of nutrition.

If the Chi Refining Technique plundered his body, this level-up might be incomplete. That would be a big problem.

Now, credit was provided for cultivating the Chi Refining Technique, and his body was getting nutrient solutions via an I.V..

Luke went back to observing the changes brought about by a breakthrough point.

In ordinary times, practicing the Chi Refining Technique allowed the body to adapt to the presence of chi, allowing it to quickly and naturally reach various parts of the body and perform various precise operations.

At the same time, the amount of chi stored in the body would gradually increase, and a person would be able to last longer in battle or explode with even more power.

It was worth paying attention to how the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique might work differently while Luke’s body was being transformed after reaching the breakthrough point that was 40.

The most obvious difference was that with the addition of the Chi Refining Technique, the transformation was far less painful than when his Strength and Mental Strength reached 40.

The data on the various instruments, as well as what he himself was feeling, indicated that the intensity of the transformation was not decreasing, but conversely, was constantly increasing.

In just a few minutes, the effect was already 5% better than before, and then 10% better in half an hour. Only then did the changes stabilize.

Luke could just barely bear the pain of the transformation, and didn’t scream.

The benefits of refining chi during the body transformation was beyond his expectations

Luke had now been changed by this 30 breakthrough point.

After this, his Dexterity would be sixteen times that of a regular person.

Increasing his Dexterity by 10% was equivalent to two to three more points added to Dexterity.

Luke had already seen that the 30 Dexterity (Star of Justice +10) displayed on the system panel had become 31 Dexterity (Star of Justice +10).

His Dexterity had increased by one point.

Luke had never expected this.

He had never stopped working out even after obtaining the system.

However, he had never been able to increase hia basic stats by himself.

He had repeatedly harassed the system over this matter. The answer was pretty much: “The results of the training do exist, but the effect is too weak, so it’s not apparent.”

Luke was perplexed. Even if the effect was weak, was it really that hard to increase a basic stat by one point after training for so long?

The system’s answer was very simple: Long-term training had a more obvious effect before a basic stat broke 20. Every stat after that was breaking the human limit, and the effect was greatly reduced as the stat increased.

Luke thought for a moment before he understood.

It was just like how it wasn’t hard for a regular sprinter to run a race in eleven seconds after years of professional training.

But to finish a race in ten seconds wasn’t something that a person with ordinary talent could do just by relying on training.

And if he wanted to do it in nine seconds, even a professional athlete with professional training might not necessarily succeed.

Luke pondered. After all his basic stats reached the 40 threshold in two years, his constitution was already pretty much inhuman.

There was no way it would be that easy to break through limits with ordinary training.

Even if the fastest sprinter could run a race in 9 seconds, did that mean that he could do it in 8, 7 or 6 seconds?

That was obviously impossible..
