Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 7 Turning Harm into Benefit
In this world, warriors can wield Source Force and possess various extraordinary powers.

In his view, the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Incantation is also a way of circulating source energy, but it should be somewhat different from the way warriors control source energy.

Old Huang offered him the Blood Dragon Elixir, simply to trick him. If he pretended to resist, Old Huang would give him the Blood Dragon Elixir for free.

As the saying goes, he has advanced technology and ruthless skills, while I have magical powers and supernatural abilities!
The thought of Lao Huang offering himself up for free made Gao Wu chuckle to himself...

With a good start, things will be much easier from here on out.

Each time Gao Wu injects two milliliters of Blood Dragon Agent, he then recites the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra ten times to purify it.

It took more than an hour to completely absorb the ten milliliters of Blood Dragon Agent.

Blood Dragon Agent can enhance the body's metabolism, causing a sudden increase in appetite. Stimulated by the agent, bones and muscles will break through normal limits and grow rapidly by absorbing energy.

The Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra contains pure primordial energy, satisfying some of the body's energy needs. It also avoids the extra burden that overeating can place on the body.

Finally, Gao Wu practiced the Nine Forms of the Dragon twice, using the "Hidden Dragon, Do Not Use" form in a lying position to adjust his breathing, visualizing a divine dragon lurking in a deep, tranquil abyss, quietly recuperating.

His body naturally curled up, his heart rate decreased, his mind entered an endless, profound state, and he became unusually calm and peaceful, soon falling into a deep sleep.

When Gao Wu opened his eyes, it was exactly six o'clock in the morning.

It was still dark outside, but when Gao Wu opened his eyes, he felt clear-headed and full of energy. He was completely free of the drowsiness he usually felt after long sleeps.

It is said that samurai can easily enter a deep sleep, and only need to sleep for two hours a day to fully rest their body and mind.

Even stronger individuals can continuously enhance their vitality through deep sleep, and may even be able to heal various injuries and illnesses.

He felt that his improved level in the Nine Forms of the Dragon had enhanced his sleep quality. It seemed that as long as he persisted in practicing the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra, he would eventually be able to enter a deep sleep free of dreams and thoughts.

Gao Wu first opened the Book of Boundless Merit and saw that his merit had increased by more than two thousand.

This rate of increase greatly surprised him. He checked the lifespan status again. There were no problems. His mood improved even more.

After a quick wash, Gao Wu put on his weighted suit. He jumped around a couple of times and felt that the 60-kilogram weighted suit was too light, so he added 10 kilograms of counterweight steel plates to his chest and back before finally going downstairs satisfied.

As dawn broke, Gao Wu jogged slowly northward along the long street, all the way to the top of Bailong Mountain in the north of the city.

In early winter, the mountains were covered in snow, and some sections of the mountain roads were icy. Gao Wu ran quickly to the top of the mountain in the dim morning light.

From the most open spot on the mountaintop, you can overlook the entire city of Dongjiang.

In the winter morning mist, the city lights dotted the sky, and car lights flashed by from time to time on the road.

Gao Wu liked this peaceful and tranquil scene. He stared at it for a while before starting to practice the Nine Forms of the Dragon.

In the open mountains and fields, Gao Wu doesn't have to worry about disturbing others and can exert his full strength and exhale freely.

Before long, several more teenagers arrived at the mountaintop. They had a tacit understanding with each other, each keeping their distance and cultivating silently, ignoring the others.

Gao Wu has been practicing his boxing here for many years and knows all of these people. However, since they come here to practice early in the morning, no one wants to waste time chatting idly.

After practicing the Nine Forms of the Dragon, Gao Wu and the other teenagers nodded in acknowledgment and descended the mountain.

By the time he got home, it was exactly seven o'clock.

Today he added 20 kilograms of weight, and the round trip up and down the mountain was about 20 kilometers, but he was 10 minutes faster than usual. The improvement in his physical condition was very significant.

Of course, the Blood Dragon Elixir may also have played a part in it.

Gao Wu bought breakfast and ate it with the old man.

Back in his bedroom, Gao Wu took out his phone and checked the local audio channel. Two of his rescue videos already had 30,000 to 40,000 likes and were ranked at the top, showing great popularity.

However, the video quality was poor, and the accompanying text was also subpar. It failed to showcase his benevolence and chivalry in his act of bravery, nor did it demonstrate his courage and decisiveness in the face of death.

He contacted Shen Yue via Fetion and arranged to meet him at the Seahorse Buffet Restaurant at noon.

These videos are time-sensitive. Since they are currently trending and the Song family doesn't seem to intend to restrict their dissemination, they should finish making the short videos as soon as possible.

Whether you become famous or not is not important; what's important is to gain merit and expand your influence through short videos.

Putting everything else aside, if he really gains fame, even Huang Hai, as the coach, wouldn't dare to treat him with disrespect. Moreover, the speed at which he's accumulating merit points this time far exceeds his expectations. If he really manages things properly, getting 100,000 merit points isn't impossible!

Tianxiang City is the largest leisure and entertainment center in Dongjiang City.

The Seahorse Buffet Restaurant is located on the top floor of Tianxiang City, covering an area of ​​500 square meters. The buffet area offers a variety of seafood and exotic meats.

That's why many martial artists like to come here for a buffet.

As Gao Wucai stepped out of the elevator, he saw the petite Shen Yue standing at the restaurant entrance, peeking around furtively and somewhat sleazy.

"Old Gao,"

Shen Yue was delighted to see Gao Wu. He quickly walked over to Gao Wu and whispered, "I just checked, it's 499 per person, that's outrageous. Let's go somewhere else."

He came from a well-off family and didn't care about the cost of the buffet. However, knowing Gao Wu's family situation, he felt a little embarrassed to let Gao Wu spend money.

"That won't do. I already said I'd treat you, how can I go back on my word?"

Gao Wu pulled Shen Yue into the restaurant. Shen Yue was his best friend from school, so it was no big deal for him to treat him to a buffet since he had money.

Besides, he also wanted Shen Yue to make videos and promote the product.

Friends are friends; you can't use someone for free even if they don't pay you. You should always show your appreciation.

He just went to the bank and deposited the rest of his money. Electronic payments are so convenient now; cash is actually less convenient.

After paying with his mobile phone, Gao Wu led Shen Yue straight to the exotic beast dining area.

Braised black lamb chops, grilled red-scaled beef skewers, six-eyed white shark sashimi, and thorny seahorse soup.

The food for these artificially bred exotic animals is rationed, with each person receiving only one portion based on their number tag.

Once you've secured the most valuable items, there's no rush to get the others, like lobster and Wagyu beef.

Although Gao Wu had used a divine incantation to neutralize the side effects of the Blood Dragon Potion, he was now particularly hungry. He first filled several large plates with regular steaks, roast meats, and high-sugar cakes, among other things.

Shen Yue knew Gao Wu had a big appetite, but seeing the table full of oily and sugary food he had prepared, he couldn't help but worry, "Can you handle all this?"

"We could eat four or five more servings."

Gao Wu glanced at the thorny seahorse soup in front of Shen Yue and took it without hesitation. "This stuff is too nutritious, you can't eat it, so I'll do the work for you."

Thorn and Seahorse Soup is mainly used for aphrodisiac purposes and is a notoriously potent medicine. It would be more harmful than beneficial for Shen Yue's small frame to consume it.

"You talk like you have a girlfriend!" Shen Yue retorted, somewhat unconvinced.

“I can refine essence into qi, while you can only use it for casting spells. That’s not the same thing.” Gao Wu chuckled mischievously.

Feeling guilty, Shen Yue didn't dare to bring up the topic further. He took out his phone and handed it to Gao Wu: "I've edited the video. Take a look and see if it's okay."

After all, Gao Wu is the main character, so his opinion must have been sought for the video. As for the rescued girls, their faces were blurred to avoid any problems.

Gao Wu watched the video once. It was only one minute long. First, there was a wide shot showing someone in the lake, then a close-up of him jumping into the water, bringing the girl ashore, performing CPR on her, and finally showing the girl being helped up by the crowd...

The frequent scene transitions create a fast pace, highlighting three key moments: diving, leading people through ice, and professional rescue. Combined with the rousing background music, the video is very impactful.

The title of the copy also reflects youthful passion: breaking the ice, separating the water, and rescuing people from danger...

Overall, it looks good, several levels better than other rescue videos. His classmate even has some professional skills.

However, Gao Wu felt that it was still lacking, not quite as exciting.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yue asked, seeing that Gao Wu's expression hadn't changed and that he seemed dissatisfied with the video.

"Very good. But, if I may be frank, it's still a ways off from being top-tier."

"Then tell me how to revise it?" Shen Yue's expression was not good when his professional level was questioned.
