High Martial Arts: Gains one point of health per second, sweeping across the heavens.

Su Jie was like a highly efficient assassin, relying on his superior mobility and terrifying explosive power to specifically target general-level demonic beasts with combat power between 10,000 and 18,000 points. To conserve his energy, he often chose the least strenuous method, attacking weak areas such as the eyes, throat, and abdomen, striving for a fatal blow.

[Defeat the general-level monster "Bloodthirsty Mad Bull" to gain 135 contribution points and refine it to obtain 6.5 points of Blood Essence!]

[Defeat the general-level monster "Shadow Leopard" to gain 115 contribution points and refine it to obtain 5.8 points of Qi and Blood Essence!]

[Defeat the general-level monster "Rock Giant" to gain 200 contribution points and refine it to obtain 9 points of Blood Essence!]

……

While not as efficient as the previous targeted hunting, it was safer and more stable. Qi and blood essence accumulated little by little.

Each time Su Jie's Qi and Blood Essence accumulated to 25 points, he would say without hesitation, "System, instantly level up a level 10 Martial Aperture!"

[Consuming 25 points of Qi and Blood Essence, Martial Aperture level increased to 10! Combat Power +30!]

His power increased slightly again! Su Jie felt even more at ease.

He weaved through the chaotic beast tide, like Death wielding his scythe, ruthlessly reaping those "valuable" targets. Contribution points and Qi essence steadily increased.

[Qi and Blood Essence +7 points! Total 7 points!]

[Qi and Blood Essence +8.5 points! Total 15.5 points!]

[Qi and Blood Essence +6 points! Total 21.5 points!]

[3.5 points short! Found you! Qi and Blood Essence +4 points! Total 25.5 points! Level up!]

[Consuming 25 points of Qi and Blood Essence, Martial Aperture level increased to 10! Combat Power +30!]

And so, while clearing away the scattered beast tide, Su Jie used the harvested blood essence to continuously level up his martial acupoints by ten levels.

When the beast tide shrank to less than a third of its original size, and most of the monsters had fled into the wilderness, Su Jie's number of level 10 martial acupoints had reached an astonishing number!

[Current Martial Acupoints: Level 10: 60! Level 9: 39!]

Current Qi and Blood Reserves: 0 points (+1/second)

[Qi and Blood Essence: 18 points]

[Combat Power: 8730 points!]

Su Jie felt the sixty level-ten martial acupoints within his body, as hot as sixty blazing suns, providing almost infinite power, and an unprecedented sense of power filled his heart.

His blood and qi surged like the Yangtze River, turbulent and roaring with a deep, thunderous sound. His body was as if it had been forged from divine iron through countless hammer blows, incredibly tough. The wounds left by the Golden Thunder Eagle had long since disappeared without a trace, and his skin shimmered with a faint jade-like luster.

Su Jie clenched his fist, the air crackling and popping in his palm. "If I encountered that Golden Thunder Eagle again, would I need to be in such a sorry state?"

His gaze swept across the devastated battlefield below. The scattered beast tide was no longer a threat, and the battle in the direction of the outpost was nearing its end, with soldiers cleaning up the last remnants.

"It seems the big fish won't be coming out again." Su Jie clicked his tongue, somewhat unsatisfied. This beast tide had made him incredibly wealthy. Not only had he accumulated a terrifying number of contribution points, but more importantly, the foundation of sixty level ten martial acupoints had given his strength a qualitative leap!

"It's time to go back. This harvest is enough for me to improve." With a thought, Su Jie transformed into a streak of light and flew towards Outpost No. 77.

When he landed on the outpost's perimeter wall, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

At this moment, although Su Jie's clothes were somewhat tattered, his aura was profound and imposing, his eyes were as deep as the starry sky, and the oppressive feeling emanating from his body made the veteran soldiers around him who had experienced countless battles feel their hearts pound.

Lieutenant Zhang hurried forward, looking at Su Jie with a complex expression, his tone filled with disbelief and a hint of awe: "Su... Su Jie, young brother? You... you're alright? Just now, those general-level demonic beasts behind the beast tide, and that strongest Golden Thunder Eagle..."

Su Jie dusted himself off and said casually, "Oh, you mean those demonic beasts? I thought they were getting in the way, so I took care of them. How's it going, Lieutenant Zhang? Is there any pressure on this side of the defense line?"

I just... tidied things up a bit?

Officer Zhang and the soldiers around him twitched at the corners of their mouths, and fell into silence as they looked at Su Jie's relaxed appearance, as if he had just gone to the countryside to pick a few wildflowers.

One person ventured deep into the rear of the beast horde and killed dozens of general-level monsters, including an elite-level leader with a combat power of 25,000... and this is called "casually cleaning up"?!

This is no longer a monster, this is practically a walking, human-shaped natural disaster!

Lieutenant Zhang took several deep breaths to barely suppress his shock, and said with a wry smile, "The pressure is long gone. Brother Su Jie, thank you so much this time, you've done a great service! I'll report to my superiors immediately!"

"No need for a report, just let everyone take credit." Su Jie waved his hand, not caring much about these empty titles. "Since everything's alright here, I'll head back now."

All he could think about was getting home as soon as possible, using up the remaining essence of his life force, and then seeing if he could find another opportunity to go to the "Myriad Heavenly Palace" or somewhere else to continue his "pay-to-win" spree.

Watching Su Jie once again use that ghostly movement technique, streaking across the sky like a shooting star and quickly disappearing into the distance, the outpost wall fell silent.

After a long silence, one of the new recruits murmured, "Lieutenant...who...who is he?"

Officer Zhang gazed in the direction where Su Jie had disappeared, exhaled a long breath, and his eyes were filled with emotion.

"Him? Perhaps... he is the future pillar of our Linjiang City, no, our Tiandu Province, and even the entire human race."

Su Jie did not take the military's aircraft. Instead, he relied on the astonishing speed of the "Sky-Treading Step" to move like a bolt of lightning tearing through the sky. He was several times faster than when he came and returned to his familiar rented house in Linjiang City in less than an hour.

He closed the door to shut out the outside world, then immediately sat down cross-legged and eagerly brought up the system panel.

[Host: Su Jie]

[Current Martial Acupoints: Level 10: 60! Level 9: 39!]

Current Qi and Blood Reserves: 3500 points (+1/second)

[Qi and Blood Essence: 18 points]

[Combat Power: 8730 points!]

[Federal Contribution Points: 58700!]

"58700 contribution points!" Su Jie couldn't help but gasp at the number. He had made a killing from this beast tide! These contribution points were incredibly valuable! And only a little over two days had passed since he left Stronghold No. 7.

He carefully sensed the changes within his body. The sixty level-ten martial acupoints, like sixty eternally burning stars, formed a more complex and stable energy circulation system within his body. The quality of his qi and blood became purer and more refined than ever before, as if it had transformed from an ordinary stream into mercury.

He tried circulating his qi and blood, and without even having to exert any effort, an invisible force field naturally emanated from his body. The dust on the table was gently pushed away, and the air seemed to become a little thicker.
