A 40-megabyte skill, at a network speed of 8 megabytes per second, would take exactly five seconds.

Trying to touch a martial artist at the Skin-Refining Realm for five seconds is somewhat unrealistic.

That's why Hu Long resorted to this desperate measure.

Hu Long didn't think there was anything wrong with it at first.

But when he actually learned how to download things, he realized the importance of internet speed.

When faced with someone more powerful than yourself, it's impossible to allow them to maintain contact with you for an extended period.

This is an extremely dangerous act in itself.

If the internet speed is fast enough, at 100 megabits or even gigabits per second, there's no need for this kind of trouble.

As for why Hu Long gave a bracelet instead of something else...

It wasn't that he didn't want to give the secret warriors what they needed.

However, with a few exceptions, most of those items can only be redeemed using points.

His score was only the initial ten points.

They could barely exchange for a single secret medicine, let alone anything that could affect a martial artist at the Skin Polishing Realm.

In the martial arts community, Hu Long is considered a poor guy.

Therefore, we had to find another way and choose to give a bracelet, such an old-fashioned gift, in order to connect with her.

Based on his investigation into Hu Li's background, he believes that she is more eager for recognition as a woman.

Giving this kind of gift should have a good effect.

However, this is just Hu Long's personal speculation.

I don't have much hope of success.

If that doesn't work, try other methods.

However, to everyone's surprise, the gift was exactly what the recipient wanted.

In doing so, he successfully achieved his goal.

On the surface, Hu Long's expression and attitude remained very serious.

They are putting a bracelet on it.

The others around witnessed this scene.

They looked at each other in bewilderment.

In fact, many people present also gave their congratulatory gifts.

However, this is not very effective for martial artists in the Skin Polishing Realm, especially for those in the Jade Skin Realm like Hu Li.

Hu Long was the first to give such an ordinary gift, and what was even stranger was that Hu Li actually accepted it.

Five seconds passed quickly.

Once the skill download is complete.

Hu Long had already put the jade bracelet on Hu Li's wrist.

"Thank you! I really like this gift."

Hu Li glanced at the bracelet on her wrist, and the corners of her mouth curved upwards almost imperceptibly.

As her strength grew stronger.

In a sense, this was the first time since she came of age that she had received a common gift that symbolized her female identity.

In the past, there were gifts, but they were all kinds of secret medicines or tonics.

"I'm glad you like it!"

Although Hu Long didn't understand what was so great about a jade bracelet that would break at the slightest touch, he could tell from the other person's satisfied expression that they were quite pleased.

This is undoubtedly an excellent result, since the purpose of a gift is to make the recipient happy.

The rest of the process was straightforward.

Hu Zhenkui personally hosted a banquet to celebrate Hu Li's breakthrough.

During the meal, everyone drank and laughed heartily.

Hu Long did not leave either. He joined the others in toasting and congratulating Hu Li, and then buried himself in his meal.

As soon as he took a bite of the food, Hu Long immediately noticed the difference.

This is clearly not ordinary home-cooked food; it obviously contains a lot of precious medicinal herbs.

With its own highly efficient absorption and metabolism, the medicine's effects are almost immediate.

Realizing this, Hu Long ate even faster with his chopsticks.

As time went by, the other family members at the table couldn't help but turn their attention to him, their expressions filled with surprise.

Secret warriors can eat a lot, but those like Hu Long are few and far between.

After all, from a certain perspective...

Being able to eat is a skill in itself.

However, people who are born with superhuman strength generally have a good appetite.

So I didn't think much of it.

Only after several rounds of drinks and nearly all the food was gone did he follow the dispersing crowd and head home.

……

It was completely dark by then.

The snow fell thicker and thicker, like goose feathers, carried by the howling cold wind and hitting my face, leaving it icy cold.

Hu Long walked at a leisurely pace.

Before long, we arrived home.

He locked the door from the inside and specifically told others not to disturb him before sitting down cross-legged in the room.

"Let's begin."

With a thought, he turned his gaze straight ahead.

Above the panel.

A line of blurry writing appeared rapidly the instant his thought was formed.

This is nothing else.

It was the Spirit Ape Secret Weapon that he downloaded from Hu Li.

At this moment, with his thoughts, the loading process begins.

In that instant, a series of first-person perspective images flashed before his eyes.

The image zoomed in rapidly, completely enveloping him. A strong sense of immersion arose within him.

At the same time, a flood of information rushed into his mind.

It contains all the key points and insights about the Spirit Ape Secret Martial Arts.

In a daze, the scene before my eyes changed, transforming into a vast expanse of sky and earth, with undulating mountains.

A massive black ape stood there, roaring to the sky, its sound waves transforming into visible ripples that swept outwards.

At that moment, the black ape suddenly stopped moving, as if it had noticed Hu Long's gaze, and turned around abruptly.

--boom!

Hu Long felt a jolt in his mind.

Countless pieces of information flooded my mind.

At the same instant.

Outside, an astonishing surge of heat erupted from Hu Long's body.

"Well……"

He groaned, and his arms and even his entire body suddenly felt intense itching, quickly turning red and swollen.

The itch seemed to penetrate to the bone marrow, making one want to scratch and tear every inch of skin apart.

On one hand, there was a torrent of information churning in my mind, and on the other hand, there was an unbearable burning sensation in my body.

Hu Long gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, but his body remained as still as a rock.

Skin smoothing mirror, as the name suggests.

Reaching this level is not something that can be achieved overnight.

Under normal circumstances, a martial artist needs to use various methods to grind down the skin membrane until it is mangled and bloody.

Soak in medicated wine and apply a special secret medicine.

Keep honing your skills, keep practicing.

The skin scabs over, peels off, and regenerates repeatedly, from the initial excruciating pain to the later numbness.

Then the transformation begins, shedding the old skin and growing a new one.

This is the origin of the term "skin smoothing mirror," which has no other meaning than its literal literal meaning.

It's simple.

However, in practice, the pain one has to endure is simply unbearable for ordinary people.

Breakthroughs are like peeling skin; once you get through it, the hide is complete.

If you can't endure it, you might die from the excruciating pain.

Even though Hu Long already knew.

But knowing something is one thing, experiencing it firsthand is another.

This feeling is simply intoxicating.

The only good thing is that it's too plain.

This process has been accelerated considerably.

What might have taken at least half an hour was quickly shortened.

puff!

A few minutes later.

The sound of the membrane being torn was heard.

From the outside.

You'll find that Hu Long's skin looks like a snake shedding its skin, as if a layer of human skin has actually been shed.

His clothes also turned into pieces.

And after the skin underneath appears, it only takes a few breaths.

It starts as a thin layer, gradually deepens, and becomes leather that has been forged and tempered, like a taut drumhead.

It's been reskinned.

Just as Hu Long breathed a sigh of relief.

That itchy, painful sensation returned.

"The first molt is cowhide, but the Spirit Ape Secret Weapon I downloaded is at the Jade Skin Realm, so I have to molt three times in a row?"

Hu Long immediately understood what was going on.

His face turned dark.

But there's nothing we can do about it now.

This is the result of taking too big a step.

Since I've chosen to download it all at once, I guess I'll just have to grit my teeth and bear it.
