Wei Jun was one stat point away from entering the third realm of cultivation, the Qi empowerment realm.

Wei Jun opened the shop and purchased an elixir that could only increase his Qi by two points if absorbed properly.

Although he wanted to increase his physical stats, he didn\'t have the money to do so yet. Whereas one elixir to increase his Qi by ten cost somewhere around 50-100 million, an elixir to just increase his strength by ten cost a whopping one billion yuan.

A straight-up ten times the price. That was probably why there were so many Qi cultivators instead of body cultivators.

[You have consumed a flame pill]

[Please absorb the elixir properly to better assimilate the Qi]

As Wei Jun began to feel warm in his heart, his body son followed. But it wasn\'t as strong as the raw herbs he congested for which the death Qi came to his rescue.

As Wei Jun slowly began to absorb the Qi leaking from the elixir with his own Qi and into his Qi core, he began to feel something different this time.

A rush.

A rush he hadn\'t felt before. Well, he had but not that intense.

When his stat limit would be removed and increased by a twenty, his locked stats would rush into his body bringing a euphoric feeling of power to his body. He was feeling the same this time, only a lot more than earlier.

Since he was lost last time, he didn\'t know what the feeling of breaking through was like. However, this time he was perfectly awake and could feel everything that came along with his breakthrough.

Such as the feeling of power assimilating into his body.

[You have reached the pinnacle of the Qi gathering realm]

[Advancement to the next stage has begun]

[Progress at 5%]

[18%]

[76%]

[99%]

With each percent increase, Wei Jun felt better and better. There was no pain from the smooth yang Qi. Instead, there was only the pleasure of power that assimilated slowly with his body.

Even with his eyes closed, Wei Jun felt refreshed as he had never felt before.

Soon enough, the process was completed by a hundred percent.

[Congratulations]

[You have advanced to the next realm of cultivation]

[You have now entered the realm of Qi empowerment]

[All physical stats +3]

[Strength: 85]

[Agility: 105-> 100]

[Stamina: 105-> 100]

[Defense: 82]

[Qi: 81]

Wei Jun slowly opened his eyes and let out an exhale of hot breath. Not only that, his whole body felt like it was emitting heat like coal.

The interesting part was that Wei Jun didn\'t feel any discomfort from that heat but instead felt calm. He couldn\'t say the same for anyone else but the heat emanating from his was a testament of his power and it made him somewhat happy.

Wei Jun\'s stats weren\'t looking so amazing but they were in progress. His skills had also increased but he dismissed that information for now because he needed to increase his Qi to the maximum point.

For that, he purchased more elixirs and herbs which cost him about 300 million yuan.

Wei Jun went with the herbs because although they provided lesser stats, they were quick to absorb with the help of the death Qi. There wasn\'t much difference in the price so it was much more efficient to absorb elixirs instead of the herbs, but herbs were faster and that was what Wei Jun was after.

Wei Jun began to consume the herbs first because it hurt a lot and it was also quick as hell.

[You have consumed a scorching root]

[Your Qi has increased by 2]

After a round of scorching pain just like the title of the herb suggested, the herb was fully assimilated and it increased his Qi by two points.

Wei Jun ignored the pain and moved on to the next one.

[You have consumed a yang dormant herb]

[Your Qi has increased by 5]

[You have consumed a root of the underworld heaven]

[Your Qi has increased by 6]

After three hours and a lot of pain, he was at 94 points of Qi. His current limit with the level was one hundred points of Qi so he still had a while to go.

But up next was an elixir instead of an herb so the pain was out of the equation. Wei Jun saved it for the last because the assimilation of Qi through elixirs also made him feel better.

[You have consumed a soothing yang pill]

[Assimilation has begun]

[Please properly absorb the elixir for maximum efficiency]

Wei Jun once again started to feel that pleasant sensation. Just like before, his Qi core began to absorb the Qi from the elixir under his guidance.

After an unknown period of time, Wei Jun finally opened his eyes, feeling refreshed and out of this world.

[Your Qi has reached the limit of your current limit]

[Please raise the limit for further increase in Qi]

After the usual messages, the next set of messages put a smile on his face.

[Congratulations on reaching the 100-point milestone in your Qi stat]

[Your QP has increased by 100]

[QP: 600\\\\600]

Although all of it was good news, Wei Jun couldn\'t help but wonder how he could breach past his limits. His progress was slow, too slow even.

He wasn\'t too happy and comfortable about being protected by Yan Rong. There could easily come a time when she wouldn\'t be there.

Wei Jun would need power then, his own personal power and the only way to do that was to raise his level. And for now, he could only do that by destroying a man\'s life.

Wei Jun sighed and stood up. Despite sitting cross-legged for an unknown long time, his legs weren\'t cramped.

None of his muscles were sore when he stood up. On the contrary, like after every cultivation session, he felt full of power and vigor.

He felt like he could run around the city and not get tired and he had tried that once as well.

Wei Jun shook his head of useless thoughts and got dressed. Once he was dressed, he pulled his phone out of the inventory and checked it.

There were a hundred and nine missed calls, about 200 messages, and the most important detail, the date. Wei Jun\'s eyes popped out of his sockets when he saw that he had been cultivating for two weeks.

**********

Wei Jun was sure that it would at most take him a week because it took less last time but he was gravely mistaken. He hurriedly left the warehouse and got in contact with everyone.

He placated Xia Lu and handled all the business calls with Li Wei, Lao Chen, and his newest business partner, Yue Peng.

After that, he checked some messages from Lin Ruan which were mostly written out of concern for him.

Other than all that, there was nothing too alarming. Wei Jun sighed as he arrived at his apartment building. He still had to go to his office but he decided to take a shower, freshen up, and have a hearty breakfast first.

While going up, he received a call from an unknown number.

Wei Jun picked up the call and Mark spoke from the other side which surprised Wei Jun because it wasn\'t Mark\'s number, "Mister Ruan. There is something you need to know."

Mark sounded panicked so Wei Jun asked, "What is it?"

"They found me. The mercenaries found me. Fortunately, I was able to escape but they had my phone. They know of our contact."

"So?" Wei Jun asked, unconcerned.

Even if they knew, they wouldn\'t be able to make any move on him. Wei Jun was well covered for that.

They needed a better reason to attack him and just a spy wasn\'t reason enough.

"No. You don\'t understand." Mark Wilson spoke.

Wei Jun had just entered his apartment when his keen nose picked up something. Something familiar.

Mark from the other side continued, "I heard the last part of the conversation. They had just finished a job and I heard one of them suggest pinning it on you."

Mark said and paused to breathe while Wei Jun made his way deeper into the apartment.

"I heard one of them say it was a perfect opportunity to get rid of you. My guess is your apartment so whatever you do, don\'t go there." Mark said.

Wei Jun cut off the call as he sighed and looked at the dead man on his living room couch.

"Well, Mark. A little too late for that." Wei Jun said as he knew what the next action would be.

And just as he did, his door was knocked down and a group of men with guns entered while they yelled just one word, "Police!"
