Chapter 144 Powering Up
New day, new him.
Dorian and everyone else cultivated throughout the night.
And surprisingly, by morning, they felt refreshed with no feeling of tiredness.
Wow! The revelation was too shocking for the trio.
Hey. If they knew, they would've spent their 'sleeping' time cultivating instead.
Eh?
Butler Sheng suddenly felt hot, as though something was trying to burst out of his body.
A strange power quickly engulfed him, bulging his muscles to the max.
Boom!
An explosion erupted within him. Now, his body felt lighter, and even the back pain he had long developed over the years seemed to have disappeared completely. And his hidden ailment also didn't give him trouble either.
How odd...
Butler Sheng opened his eyes in shock and confusion, trying to find clarity in the matter.
"Congratulations. You have just broken through to the 1st Dan of the True Qi Realm."
(?_?)
....
It took a minute for things to register in their brains.
What?!!!
Raulin and Zhulyn heard Pandrol's words and gasped in awe and envy.
"Sheng! How was it? How do you feel?"
"Yeah! Yeah! Tell us how you feel!"
The duo couldn't help rushing towards the dazed Butler Sheng, wanting to know what it felt like to break through.
Right off the bat, they noticed some difference between the former and the latter Butler Sheng.
Yes. The former him still gave off a very intimidating aura. But it wasn't as intense as the new him.
It was as though raw power would seep out of his flesh. What was this?
The duo looked at Butler Sheng from head to toe, accessing the few changes in his physical appearance.
His back was straight, he was taller, his hair color seemed slightly brighter, and the few age lines faded away, making them forget that he was a middle-aged man.
The duo were dumbfounded.
Was it just them, or did Butler Sheng turn slightly younger overnight? Even his lips were fuller and peaches than before.
Tsk. If the women of today know of such a miraculous thing, they might choose to cultivate only for the sake of beauty alone.
After all, who doesn't love to be vibrant, hip and hoppity? In fact, they loved hip hop.

"Daoist Sheng, you may test your strength in the training room," Pandrol said, gesturing towards another region.
Yes! They might as well see just how strong he was.
Butler Sheng puffed out his chest like a proud peacock, walking with his hands behind his back while following Pandrol.
And for this, Zhulyn and Raulin only rolled their eyes heavenwards at his homelessness.
'You think you're the only one who will get to this stage? Just wait and see how we break through and catch up with you!'
Hmph!
The gang of 3 followed Pandrol excitedly.
"Daoist Sheng, please test your strength on this."
Walking into the room, everyone saw several large rocks all lined up one after the other, all having different weights and sizes.
"Please listen attentively... At your stage within the 1st Dan. At the primary stage, your strength should be equivalent to 500 jin. At the intermediate stage, it should be 700... Advanced 900. And at the peak, your strength should be equivalent to 1100 jin. Now, the first rock weighs 20000 jin. So start testing your strength out with that.
(**... 1 jin = 0.5 Kg)
Amazing!
Butler Sheng clenched his fists, feeling the raw power within them.
.
Swish!
He carried the rock, feeling only a little resistance, as though he were carrying a watermelon or something.
Superman! Superman! Superman!
The duo saw him lift it and place it over his head with one hand, making them scream in alarm and enthusiasm.
Zhulyn began strangling, and rocking Raulin left and right crazily. "Oh my God! Do you see this? Look! Look at what he can do!"
(*0*)
Raulin was also excited.
This was the kind of power that superheroes had!
Hey. If Haru found out, he would probably use his strength to make his annoying magic act become a reality.
Lying tough. The fairy strength was real!
~Hup!
Butler Sheng threw the massive boulder high up in the air, caught it again and again, as though trying to test how far he could throw it, as well as his control on things.
Within the space, one couldn't see the ceiling, as it kept going up and up and up and up... Especially when looking at the library section.
The shelves ascending just never ended. And a majority of things in this hidden space seemed like they were meant for giants, with them being ant-size.
Thus, Butler Sheng was free to throw way up as high as he wanted.
Knowing his maximum throwing speed would also help when fighting too.
Whoosh. Whoosh. Whoosh.
The boulder flew up and came down.
Good.
.
"Daoist. It's also essential that you test your punch strength." Pandrol reminded.
And sure enough, his words stirred Butler Sheng's mind in the right direction.
Loading the boulder firmly on the ground, Butler Sheng took deep breaths, preparing himself for what he was about to do.
"Everyone, stand back."
"Right." The duo replied, taking many steps back, lest they got caught up with something.
"Be careful, Sheng. In the end, it's still a rock. And flesh is meaty. So... Be careful."
"Mmm."
He was a little scared.
After all, his bones could crack, and his flesh could tear, leaving him with nothing but deep pains and injuries. So taking such actions might backfire.
But feeling the strength in his first, he somehow felt confident to take the risk.
Butler Sheng wet his lips nervously and closed his eyes, immersing himself in a deep trance.
1... 2... 3....
BOOM!
With just a single punch, the hardened rock that seemed indestructible... Now had a monstrous fist dent in it, as well as several cracks on its body.
Boom! Boom!
Two more attacks, and it not only broke but shattered into several pieces as though Butler Sheng had lived it apart like tofu.
This... This... Biology has been defied.
The duo clenched their fists with maniacal looks of determination in their eyes.
No way! They had to break through fast!
