Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 219 - 154: There’s Always a Higher Mountain

Chapter 219: Chapter 154: There’s Always a Higher Mountain

Inside Willow Alley.

On the bed.

Jiang Feng spent 160,000 Fortune Points, adding them to the Tai Chi Longevity Skill.

The panel information changed.

Though he still couldn’t figure out why the Seventh Prince would send people to investigate Zhenbei Prison, he knew that improving his strength could not be neglected.

He had spent 160,000 Fortune Points.

Jiang Feng got what he wished for and became a strong cultivator in the Innate True Essence Realm.

His perception power spread outward, the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth revealed its form; with each breath, the energy moved as his will commanded. Jiang Feng felt that now, he could actually control the ambient Power of Heaven and Earth with his thoughts.

"Hoo!"

He stretched out his hand, and a vortex of energy appeared on his fingertip.

The vortex was drawn from the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth.

The vortex swirled fiercely around his finger.

His fingertip grew hot.

"This must be telekinesis, which only a True Essence Realm expert possesses. Unfortunately, just as the books say, the telekinesis of True Essence Realm cultivators doesn’t have lethality yet—it only helps me control nearby energies more freely."

Jiang Feng clearly felt that, as a True Essence Realm expert, his control over the Power of Heaven and Earth was several times stronger than a Primordial Realm cultivator.

It was as though he could grasp the Power of Heaven and Earth in his palm.

Turn his hand to make clouds, flip his hand to bring rain.

The range covered by his perception felt like its own domain, and within this field, True Essence Realm experts could fully ignite the strength of their surroundings.

Moreover, the primordial power inside his body subtly transformed, as if it now possessed awareness, circulating on its own and absorbing the Power of Heaven and Earth for his use.

Jiang Feng felt that, at this moment, he could casually strike out with a palm.

The Power of Heaven and Earth within a twenty-meter radius could be instantly fused into his palm, allowing him to shatter the mud-brick house ahead with a single strike.

Recalling the last confrontation with Liu Jinhu at Black Iron Mountain, Jiang Feng felt he’d narrowly escaped death that time.

Liu Jinhu, as a Celestial Profound Realm expert, was far stronger than him now. Although he still couldn’t harm people directly with his mind, he could already transform the Power of Heaven and Earth into Circulation Power, establishing the embryonic form of a domain.

If he hadn’t suppressed Liu Jinhu from afar with archery, pushing him to the edge of the cliff and finally forced him down using Loulan Slash’s Moon-Slaying Style—

If they had fought directly, death would’ve been certain.

Even though Jiang Feng’s primordial power far exceeded those of the same realm, it was still no match for Liu Jinhu’s Circulation Power.

Of course, being able to beat Liu Jinhu back wasn’t only due to his archery and Loulan Slash, but because Liu Jinhu had already been gravely wounded by Xiao Zhan—his arm nearly torn off.

Otherwise, even with three lives, Liu Jinhu could’ve killed him all the same.

And even after falling from the cliff and taking two arrows from Jiang Feng, Liu Jinhu still managed to return to the mountaintop.

"Compared to Xiao Zhan and Liu Jinhu, I’m still not strong enough. No matter what happens in the future, I absolutely must not cross paths with them."

Jiang Feng reminded himself.

Having leveled up, he hadn’t relaxed at all; instead, he was increasingly aware of how terrifying Liu Jinhu and Xiao Zhan were, warning himself to live as low-profile as possible.

"People from Yun Gui Sect are still hunting me in Dragon Capital. The Seventh Prince, to win over Yun Gui Sect’s Immortal Master, is determined to drag me out. That Li Zhang’s soul power is immense; he’s already suspicious of me. I need to find a way to deal with him."

Jiang Feng stood up and paced in the room.

"I have to come up with a win-win plan—can’t just shake off the Second Prince and Xiao Zhan only to offend the Seventh Prince right away."

Jiang Feng grew more serious.

The next day.

Jiang Feng went alone to Zhenbei Prison.

"Prison Chief Jiang, Grand Commander Li asked me to tell you to go see him first."

Chief Feng saw Jiang Feng and hurriedly spoke.

"Okay."

Jiang Feng became even more alert and soon arrived at Li Zhang’s courtyard.

"Prison Chief Jiang, please sit."

Li Zhang was reading documents in the courtyard.

Seeing Jiang Feng, he showed no airs, motioning for Jiang Feng to sit across from him—his superior, Captain Yang Feng, was brewing tea nearby.

"My lord, I’ll stand, if that’s alright. May I ask what you need of me?"

Jiang Feng replied humbly. After all, Yang Feng was his superior; how could he sit and let Yang Feng serve him tea? Even with Han Dong supporting him, it would make Yang Feng uncomfortable.

This Li Zhang seemed to be stirring up trouble on purpose.

"No need to be nervous, I called you here just to ask: you seem to have a good relationship with that Huo Ya I dismissed last night. What do you think, should I give him another chance, maybe let him come back as a Little Prison Chief?"

Li Zhang asked.

"Reporting to my lord, I used to work under Uncle Huo, and nowadays live in the same alley—so yes, we do interact. But Uncle Huo is addicted to wine and liable to make mistakes; I think, by dismissing him, you’re actually helping him."

Jiang Feng hurriedly replied.

Li Zhang’s words were full of traps—he wasn’t about to fall for them. If Li Zhang really wanted to bring Uncle Huo back, there’d be no need to consult Jiang Feng in front of Yang Feng.

"What you said makes sense. Then let him be! The real reason I called you here is I want you to do something for me. Lord Director of the Prison left in a hurry, and many important documents are still in her courtyard. As you know, I’ve just taken office and need to get up to speed. So, I want you to go to the Director’s courtyard and bring me those important records."

A glint of surprise flashed in Li Zhang’s eyes—he hadn’t expected Jiang Feng to follow his lead, not only showing no intention of bringing Huo Ya back but even agreeing with his decision.
