Chapter 229: Ingrid, Super Girl

"Ingrid, when you enter the floor you reach, you will pass a test. The test is the same for everyone; it only changes the degree of difficulty. You'll be fighting monsters, endless monsters until you give up. When you give up, it will be the end of the test and you will receive your reward. Afterward, you can walk freely on the floor you reached, however, there are many dangerous places, especially on floors above 30. So, after the test, wait for me. I'm going to finish my test and finish up. Then we can explore and make progress together," Luan said.

"You don't need to miss so many chances because of me." Ingrid felt guilty.

"It's not a loss. Look, you're probably going to make it about 5 floors less than me. While it will be easier to find stronger monsters and make more points, lowering just 5 floors isn't bad. Do you know why?" Luan smiled.

"Why? Will it help you kill things faster?" Ingrid deduced.

"Exactly, as expected from my girlfriend." He smiled and kissed her cheek. "By killing faster I'll still do a lot of credits, and then we can exchange them for equipment, etc."

"Oh yes, exchanging points is very easy. In each room there is a crystal pillar, and you just have to put your hand on the pillar and your mind goes into the store, something like entering a dream, and there you have the item options and the values," Luan explained.

"I get it." Ingrid nodded.

Stepping through the barrier Luan created, they passed through the tower's nearly 10-meter door.

"It's really stairs," Ingrid muttered. Each step was 1 meter long and two meters wide.

"Remember, when you find it too difficult to continue, stop and meditate. Use pressure to clear your meridian veins, and then don't waste time and connect to your Dantian," Luan said.

"I understand," Ingrid nodded seriously.

The two started to climb. At the beginning, it was as if they were twice as heavy. It wasn't difficult until they reached the tenth step, and then it started to get a little heavy, but it was still easy. After all, for a long time they had been training under the extra pressurized gravity.

After twenty floors, Ingrid started to sweat a little, but she still managed to go on. On the 25th floor, she stopped and began to meditate.

Luan continued. It was still easy for him. On floor 30, he started out hard to continue, and only climbed one more floor before sitting on the floor and starting to meditate. His body was under great pressure, but Luan didn't even frown and continued to meditate and use the pressure to force his meridian veins to open and cleaned them.

Of course, he also swallowed a Meridian Vein Cleansing Pill. Under such circumstances, the effect of the pill were even greater. Ingrid also received 12 of these pills at the Sky level, basically 1 pill for each clean vein.

The first vein to be cleaned was the Yin vein, which was connected to the lung. Luan was the fastest to clear the Yin vein and connected it to his Dragon Core. Then he vomited impurities, staining the floor in black paint. Automatically, his strength doubled. Taking a deep breath, he got up and went to the 35th floor, and stopped.

Ingrid was finally able to clear the vein in her lung and connect it to her Dantian as well. Like Luan, Ingrid's power has doubled. She managed to walk to the 30th floor, but stopped just after the 29th, the smell was too strong coming from the 31st floor.

Sitting up, she began to meditate, forcing the large intestine's Yang meridian vein to clear, waiting for the best time to swallow the pill. Luan on the 35th floor felt the time was right and swallowed the pill to clean the meridian vein. When he finished cleaning, he wasted no time and connected to the Dragon Core.

From 300 times more powerful, he was now 400 times more powerful. Of course, that's putting Qi and Body together that came to 400 times more powerful. The power to clean and connect each vein was very valuable.

Vomiting much impurity again, Luan felt the absence of Qi and took a Heaven-level Qi Collection Pill and swallowed it and meditated. Minutes later, Ingrid finished clearing her meridian vein and connecting them to her Dantian.

She vomited impurity and was also almost out of Qi. Swallowing a Sky-level Qi Collecting Pill, she couldn't stand the smell and went up two steps and meditated.

Unlike Luan who gains 100 times more power, Ingrid averaged 60. Of course, that amount was already quite high. With Qi and Body, her total power reaches 300 times more powerful.

Luan continued to climb. On floor 40 he cleared his Stomach Yang and connected it and at the same time also purified good Spleen/Pancreas Yin and connected them to his Dragon Core.

Ingrid had to do the same when she reached the 35th floor. She was doing better than Luan had expected. Her perseverance surprised him and also made him happy. But from floor 40 onwards, it was difficult to climb a single step. Luan only climbed to 41 and already had to stop. He cleared the Yin Heart meridian and connected it to the Dragon Core, and managed to take another step, climbing to the 42nd step. The pressure made him vomit blood, along with the impurity.

Luan knew his limits. He took a Qi Collection Pill and swallowed it, and began to meditate, going back to Peak. Luan's goal was to reach the 50th floor. As for Ingrid, he expected her to reach at least 40 if she made 45, even better.

"Damn…" Luan muttered as he vomited some more blood.

The pressure on the 42nd floor was too high. Only with the Body, he couldn't stand it. He needed to rebuild his Qi to help resist the pressure. In his previous life, no one had ever reached the 50th floor on the first attempt, which made Luan want to do it even more.

The next was the Yang vein that connected the small intestine. The small intestine was connected to the hand and the head. It took a little longer to get clean, and when he saw that the time was right, Luan swallowed the Meridian Vein Cleansing Pill.

"Success…" Muttering, he vomited a lot of impurity right away but wasted no time connecting to the Dragon's Core.

If it took too long, the impurity could enter his meridian vein, so Luan chose to do it this way to get the best result. He didn't rush. Meditating, he regained his Qi and climbed to step 43.

At that time, Ingrid was at step 38. Her perseverance and talent were very high. She had managed to clear the veins of the small intestine and connect them to her Dantian. Sure, for her it was a little easier than Luan's, but that didn't change the fact that she was a rare talent. Not just anyone could do what she was doing.

Ingrid's total strength had already reached an incredible 540. That equaled the strength of a dragon. How could he not be proud of a woman like that?

Completing her cultivation, clearing the meridian veins, and connecting them to her Dantian, Ingrid now had the incredible strength of 2 dragons. This was something very, very strong. Currently, it would be power with almost no enemies. Of course, there was Luan, but, you know...
