Zhao Gao quickly entered his EXP points, raising the Basic Breathing Technique to the highest level he could currently raise.
“Basic Breathing Technique: Level 3 (1280)”
“Level 4 (1945)”
Finally, the Skill level stopped at 4, and the next level only required 3240 proficiency points.
Zhao Gao did not care about this. Once again, he used the Breathing Technique to test if his conjecture was correct.
Breathe. Hold your breath. Breathe.
After half an hour, Zhao Gao opened the system interface again.
“EXP gained: 7200”
“Extra Talent Profit: 3600”
“Total EXP gained: 10 800”
“Current storage EXP: 13 974”
At this point, Zhao Gao finally proved his conjecture. On average, this Basic Breathing Technique allowed one to gain EXP points of the same Skill level every second.
The current EXP points were just enough for him to increase Character level by 1 and level up his Skills by 1.
Zhao Gao could not care less. The sooner he had more strength, the sooner he could level up.
He spent 10 000 EXP points to increase Character level by 1, and 3240 EXP points to level up the Basic Breathing Technique.
“Character level up. Current level 2”
“All Stats will automatically grow by 1 point. Talent profits: additional growth of 0.5”
“Basic Breathing Technique leveled up. Current level: 5”
“You have received 5 Freedom Stats Points. Talent bonus: 2.5 Points”
“Current Freedom Stats Points: 7.5”
The system produced the latest information of Zhao Gao.
Looking at this information, Zhao Gao began to distribute his Stats.
He added 3 points to Essence, and 4 points to Magic.
He did not add any points to his Spirit Stats. If he did add any points to his Spirit Stats, he would be a real idiot.
As for the Spirit Stats, the system had explained it very clearly. This was a Stat that could only be obtained by combining Essence and Magic. It was the combination of one’s energy and the prerequisite for activating a Skill.
But the most important part of the introduction was that the Spirit Stats was the average value of combining the Essence and Magic Stats.
In other words, when the Magic and Essence Stats increase, the Spirit Stats would naturally increase.
For example, if the Essence was 10 and the Magic was 10, then the corresponding Spirit Stats would also be 10 points.
However, to be clear, these 10 points were the upper limit of the Spirit Stats, derived from the combination of Essence and Magic.
As long as Zhao Gao raised his Essence and Magic Stats, even if his Spirit Stats did not reach its upper limit in an instant, it would still reach its limit eventually.
Moreover, as this Basic Breathing Technique could absorb energy, would it not naturally increase one’s own energy Stats?
Hence, by increasing the Stats points of the Spirit Stats would only cause the Stats to rise to its upper limit at a faster rate.
Moreover, Zhao Gao did not have any Skills that required Spirit. Would it not be a waste to increase points for this Stats?
As Freedom Stats Points were precious and hard to obtain, he had to think through carefully.
From all that Zhao Gao now knew, there were only two ways to obtain Stats points.
One was the increase gained by leveling up; and the other was the Freedom Stats points gained from every upgrade of the Basic Breathing Technique.
Zhao Gao did not know if there were any other ways. However, given the current situation, and the fact that Freedom Stats points were so precious, how could he waste them?
————
As soon as the points were added, Zhao Gao felt an intense change.
His body-every inch of his skin, every muscle, every bone-began to shake violently.
It was as if they had been dismantled and reassembled.
The intense pain made Zhao Gao scream, “Ah! Ah! Ah!”
“It hurts!”
As he screamed, Zhao Gao fell and rolled on the ground. Still, the pain was so intense that he used his hands to pound on the ground.

He wanted to stop the pain.
However, the increase in his Spirit Stats and Soul Perception had magnified the affliction of his body’s restructuring by several times.
“Bam! Bam! Ah! Pain!” Zhao Gao punched out one fist after another. In this dirt field, there were fist marks all around him.
Yet, there was no wound on his fist, let alone any pain from punching.
And while Zhao Gao was making a commotion, Chiliarch Ling noticed the situation Zhao Gao was in.
In an instant, Chiliarch Ling’s figure blurred and disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was already beside Zhao Gao, who was rolling on the ground and screaming in pain.
“You’re seriously giving me trouble!” Chiliarch Ling muttered impatiently.
After that, he started to strike.
Grabbing Zhao Gao, Chiliarch Ling placed his hands on Zhao Gao’s shoulders and moved down to his fingers.
“Arm reformation!”
Chiliarch Ling used his internal energy to cause Zhao Gao’s expanding arm muscles to change shape.
He did not want Zhao Gao’s violent body and his muscles to become deformed.
After that, Chiliarch Ling slapped Zhao Gao’s palms and mobilized his internal energy. Using vibration, he allowed Zhao Gao’s body reformation to evolve to its most natural form, such that Zhao Gao would not become a ‘devil-tendon man’.
With Chiliarch Ling’s palms as the starting point, waves of vibrating power were transmitted to Zhao Gao’s body. This helped Zhao Gao avoid the pain of breaking bones.
For a moment, silence fell around the field. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the two of them, trying to find out what had happened.
After about an hour, Chiliarch Ling finally retracted his hand. He said to Zhao Gao, who had regained his composure and said to Zhao Gao, “Don’t thank me. In future, don’t foolishly increase too much power that you can’t control.”
With that, Chiliarch Ling turned and left.
“Thank you for your help, Chiliarch Ling!” Although Chiliarch Ling had said that there was no need to thank him, Zhao Gao was not an ungrateful person.
Although he could not do anything to help Chiliarch Ling, Zhao Gao still had to thank him.
Chiliarch Ling did not respond to Zhao Gao and returned to the field.
“Continue practicing the Breathing Technique!”
Hearing his words, everyone quickly turned back and focused on practicing the Breathing Technique.
————
Zhao Gao turned back and quickly sat down cross-legged. He did not want to be the only one standing. How awkward would that be?
Besides, had he not caught too much attention already?
He had just caused an incident. Now, he had to keep as low a profile as possible.
After sitting down, Zhao Gao clenched his fists and squeezed his wrists. He had never felt so strong before.
He felt like he could kill a cow with one punch, just like the protagonist of a novel.
It was not an illusion. At this moment, Zhao Gao believed in his intuition.
At the thought of this, Zhao Gao quickly opened the system interface and checked his current information.
As the screen unfolded, all of Zhao Gao’s body information was presented to him.
