Chapter 692 - 662: Launching the Attack

A Perception Range of 7,600 meters was absolutely terrifying. After all, even an expert at the Early Stage of the Divine Demon Realm only had a Perception Range of about 10,000 meters.

As for someone at the Peak of the Body Shaping Realm, their maximum was only around 5,000 meters.

In other words, with Lin Xinghai’s current Perception Power, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him half a Divine Demon Realm expert.

More importantly, his Blood Qi Power hadn’t reached its limit yet. If it could increase a few more times, he might actually be able to touch the threshold of the Divine Demon Realm.

Of course, none of this affected Lin Xinghai in the slightest. He continued to lead the others, constantly killing Abyssal Creatures and acquiring more Blood Bags.

Time passed steadily. Soon, it was 11:30 PM. Three hours had already passed since Lin Xinghai started increasing his Blood Qi Power.

By now, compared to when he started, his total Blood Qi Power had increased by a full 7,200 points.

Distributed evenly among each of his organs, the Blood Qi Power contained within each one had reached as high as 654 points.

And at this moment, through the feedback from these organs, Lin Xinghai finally, faintly sensed where his upper limit lay.

He estimated he could probably increase the Blood Qi Power in each organ by about another 100 points. In other words, the limit for his organs was 750 points, a full 50% more capacity compared to the 500-point limit of others.

Such an increase might not seem significant in a single organ, but when multiplied across 11 organs, it was quite substantial. After all, under normal circumstances, the limit for most people was an increase of 5,500 Blood Qi Value.

But if his feeling was correct, then he could increase his total Blood Qi Power by 8,250 points, a full 2,750 points more than others.

For the Marrow Tempering Realm, this was by no means a small number.

A thought quickly occurred to him. He opened his system panel to check his three main Attributes, and a flicker of understanding instantly dawned on him.

All three of his Attributes were at 1,430 points, whereas for a typical cultivator at the Peak of Marrow Tempering Realm, they should only be around 1,000 points.

Furthermore, other people’s three Attributes were not as balanced as his. When they said 1,000 points, they were referring to their highest Attribute; the other two could be as low as eight or nine hundred points.

This meant his body’s overall quality was almost 50% stronger than others, which was why he could absorb so much more Blood Qi Power.

’It seems my previous choices were correct. Only by cultivating each Realm to its absolute limit will I grow stronger down the line. The foundation, especially, will likely have a greater impact the further I go,’ Lin Xinghai reflected with some emotion.

This was definitely a pleasant surprise for Lin Xinghai.

The others had also made significant progress in the past few hours. Liu Miaomiao, in particular, had successfully broken through to the Peak of Marrow Tempering Realm.

Of course, tempering the final two organs was the most difficult part. The Triple Jiao, especially, was one organ equivalent to five normal ones.

In other words, tempering these two organs was equivalent to tempering six. The difficulty of completing the process was no different from advancing two Small Realms, except that no breakthrough was required.

Lin Xinghai glanced at his watch. He wasn’t sure if Liu Miaomiao had enough time left to finish tempering all her organs.

As for the other members of the Xinghai Squad, there wasn’t much to say. Their Blood Qi Power was increasing at a stable rate of 60 points per hour.

Lin Xinghai just observed them for a moment before refocusing on his own Cultivation.

His total Blood Qi Power continued to increase rapidly. Half an hour later, the amount of Blood Qi Power stored in each of his organs finally reached the upper limit of 750 points.

At that exact moment, he felt a sense of fullness emanating from his internal organs.

’Looks like I’ve reached the limit. Should I choose to break through now?’ Lin Xinghai was instantly conflicted.

If he successfully broke through to the Body Shaping Realm now, his combat power would undoubtedly soar. He felt he would even be able to fight a Divine Demon Realm expert head-on.

But the problem was, breaking through a major Realm was extremely time-consuming. Breaking into the Body Shaping Realm, in particular, required the body’s first reshaping during the process, which would take even longer.

If the Abyssal Plane launched an attack at that moment, his death would be all but certain.

’Sigh... It looks like I’ll have to wait until I’m back at the main base to break through,’ Lin Xinghai sighed softly.

But as he began to grow accustomed to the feeling of fullness in his organs, he was surprised to discover that not all of them felt that way.

At least in his Perception, his heart and stomach—the two organs that had undergone a transformation—didn’t feel full at all.

’This...’ Lin Xinghai was a little surprised. He also discovered that the excess Blood Qi Power from his other organs was gradually flowing toward those two, and the feeling of fullness was slowly receding.

’Could it be that the transformed organs can hold a greater total amount of Blood Qi Power?’ Lin Xinghai quickly formed a hypothesis.

After forming his hypothesis, the next step was naturally to test it. He swallowed another Blood Bag, and as a steady stream of Blood Qi Power was converted, he soon found that his guess was correct.

The Blood Qi Power stored in his heart and stomach was still increasing rapidly.

’I never expected transformed organs to have this kind of benefit. I just wonder how much the Blood Qi Power storage limit of these two organs can increase,’ Lin Xinghai thought, his eyes shining with curiosity.

Just as he was about to continue absorbing Blood Bags to further increase his total Blood Qi Power, a piercing alarm suddenly blared throughout the entire area.

Lin Xinghai spread his Perception Power and quickly discovered that the air-raid sirens were coming from the military patrols in the surrounding area.

As the alarms sounded, everyone who had been engrossed in absorbing Blood Bags was instantly jolted awake.

Unlike the other, more bewildered teams, the members of the Xinghai Squad had long known that the Abyssal Plane would launch an attack.

"Boss, what do we do?" Little Fatty was the first to ask.

"Retreat!" Lin Xinghai ordered immediately, without a second thought.

Although he was certain the Abyssal Plane had targeted him, he wasn’t about to just wait for them to attack. Running was essential.

Besides, if the enemy was slow to act, they might be able to escape the green Poisonous Fog District, and then they wouldn’t have to worry so much.

It wasn’t impossible. After all, the military was also making preparations and might just succeed in thwarting the enemy’s plot.

At Lin Xinghai’s command, the convoy immediately turned and sped toward the edge of the green Poisonous Fog District.

Meanwhile, Lin Xinghai fully extended his Perception Power to monitor his surroundings while simultaneously opening his system panel and raising the proficiency of all his Martial Arts to 100%.
