Chapter 1201: Strength of the Dragon and Opening Experience Gift Packs

Selina was happy because she had finally found something she was better at than Luke.

As for the rest… Forget it. Whether it was her chest or butt, she actually couldn’t compare with a certain brawny beast. It was simply ridiculous.

It was a good thing that Luke always liked to cover himself up tightly to hide his various guns and equipment. Otherwise, who knew how many hungry muscle-loving fans would come knocking.

Luke was very satisfied.

This experiment proved that using the Kunlun Chi Refining technique wasn’t a matter of innate talent.

As a master of skills, and coupled with the cultivation experience of Alexandra and Mrs. Gao, these two 500-year-old monsters, Luke was able to produce results with the Kunlun Chi Refining technique in three days.

After he taught Selina for another two days, she was also able to break through.

A large part of it relied on several smart programs to dismantle parts of the cultivation method and analyze them extensively, as well as his long-term research on Selina and himself.

If the progress requirements were lowered and the time reduced, any other normal person who wasn’t stupid would probably be able to learn a thing or two within a few months to a year.

Nevertheless, they would still be far from Selina’s level; it would be equivalent to what novels referred to as “sensing chi.”

But after sensing this chi, a cultivator’s subsequent progress would depend on talent and proper guidance.

Those who couldn’t think out of the box and didn’t have any guidance might not be able to learn for decades. Their bodies would at most be a little healthier than those who didn’t cultivate, and wouldn’t be much different from those who practiced tai chi in the park.

Thus, there were actually two meanings to the saying, “A master leads the way, a person trains.”

Most people only took note of the person who trained, and felt that cultivation depended on one’s hard work.

That was understandable, but the focus was wrong.

Without a “master” to guide them, a cultivator would have to find the right path themself, or even open their own path bit by bit. That required too much talent and power of understanding.

The Kunlun Chi Refining technique was most likely a path that had only taken its final form after exploration and refinement by generations of cultivators.

It was practically impossible for one person to master a cultivation technique derived from hundreds or thousands of years of collective knowledge.

Secondly, a master who just showed the way was no more than pointing the person in the right direction.

In the future, the person would have to build their own path bit by bit, and their cultivation speed would remain slow.

Luke, on the other hand, only needed to follow the path which Kunlun had already built.

He would mend some of the forks and pits along the way as appropriate, but he wouldn’t spend too much time deducing them.

There was no scientific way to quantify an energy system like Kunlun’s “chi.”

Luke would give the task of patching up the flaws to the A.I. program, Alfred, and let the Star of Justice clone test the results.

In any case, he would only lose 100,000 credit points if his clone died. Moreover, with Elementary Self-Healing, it would be very hard for his clone to cultivate to death.

In the end, Alfred would modify the Kunlun Chi Refining technique and split it into several minor cultivation phases to create something like a 9-stage manual.

In the future, Luke would be able to provide these “secret manuals” to his allies based on the situation.

This sort of thing that could guide progress and which wasn’t his was really too suitable for use as a favor.

He also wasn’t worried that Kunlun would come looking for trouble.

Kunlun wasn’t the only entity who cultivated chi in the East. As long as Luke removed the distinctive technique of releasing chi, and just used it as a supporting strengthening technique, the chances of being detected by Kunlun were next to zero.

Besides, even Danny had been sent back to America, so Kunlun didn’t attach much importance to the Chi Refining technique.

One reason was because it was very hard to cultivate the technique without the guidance of a master like Luke.

More importantly, the Kunlun Chi Refining technique was just a primer.

Without the special “strength of the dragon,” the power of this chi wasn’t exaggerated. Ordinary people would at most be able to beat up a few bare-handed hoodlums.

Want to fight a hundred enemies? It was more practical to use a gun.

Luke had also obtained information from Alexandra and Mrs. Gao about the “strength of the dragon” which Kunlun valued the most.

The source of this power had always been under the exclusive control of Kunlun, so it didn’t really care about the Chi Refining technique leaking out.

But the Hand in New York had discovered that a dragon had left a “relic” here in ancient times, and it was something which contained the strength of the dragon — a dragon bone.

The dragon bone was probably behind that stone door in the pit next door.

That was why the Hand had spent so much effort and money to acquire the building.

When Mrs. Gao, i.e. the Hand, worked with Kingpin before, the organization had wanted Kingpin to acquire the building first.

That way, they wouldn’t draw the enemy’s attention.

In the end, Kingpin ran into death-courting Red Matt.

Then, Luke and Selina suddenly appeared to chase Kingpin down.

Kingpin decisively withdrew, and the Hand could only take action.

Then… nothing.

The Hand sent reinforcements to New York to deal with Luke and Selina, but were all beaten up.

But something was seriously wrong with Alexandra’s body. After so long, her body was about to run out of the strength of the dragon, and she couldn’t continue using it to buy herself more time.

She was about to die, and the other “fingers” were also coming to the end of their lifespans.

Thus, the Hand, which had always been hiding in the shadows, finally became impatient, and ran into Luke.

This time, Luke caught two of the five fingers and Elektra.

It was only then that Luke finally understood why the Hand’s movements had seemed so dumb.

It wasn’t that the “five fingers” were stupid, but that they were running out of time.

If they didn’t take this gamble, they could only wait for death.

If they won and obtained the dragon bone, they could live for several more centuries, which would give them time to find a way to extend their lives again.

For the next five days, Luke focused on confirming the intelligence which he got from the two old monsters, Alexandra and Mrs. Gao.

He had no time to deal with Black Sky, Elektra, at all, and the creature simply hibernated in Space 2.

Whiplash, on the other hand, was enjoying the same treatment as Boogeyman John and was locked up in a dark room. Apart from reading, he could only eat, sleep, and exercise.

After obtaining the intelligence, Luke used Elementary Annihilation to turn Alexandra and Mrs. Gao into nothing.

It wasn’t about burning their bones and scattering their ashes; he just didn’t want these two old demons to be resurrected through some inexplicable ability.

After all, there weren’t many “people” on Earth who had lived for 500 years; they might have some strange trump cards.

The system finally gave him the last experience and credit gift packs.
