Day 37 of the Black Mist Calendar.
The proficiency of the Source Power Armor increased by 3,000 points.
At the same time, he had reached the proficient stage of the Soldier Transformation Technique and the Feather Space Technique.
The upgrade of the two Mortal Realm Source Power Skills each provided Lu Ming with 200 three-dimensional attributes and 200 free attributes. In total, he had 400 points!
That night, Lu Ming changed his cultivation target and began to cultivate the Gale Saber and the Great Dragon Spear.
Day 98 of the Black Mist Calendar.
The proficiency of the Source Power Armor increased by 3,000 points.
The Gale Saber and the Great Dragon Spear had advanced and reached the proficient stage.
They also provided Lu Ming with 200 three-dimensional attributes and 200 free attributes.
This time, Lu Ming did not change his cultivation program. Instead, he continued to cultivate the Gale Saber and the Great Dragon Spear. His goal was to increase his basic skills to the maximum level!
This goal was achieved two days later.
Day 100 of the Black Mist Calendar.
Cold Weapon Combat Lvioo (max level).
Basic Saber Technique Lvioo (max level).
Basic Marksmanship Lvioo (max level).
At the same time, Lu Ming had cultivated the Gale Saber and the Great Dragon Spear to the proficient level!
In addition, the Source Power Armor had also reached the proficient level!
These three mastery-level Mortal Realm Source Power Skills each gave Lu Ming 300 three-dimensional attributes and 300 free attributes points.
Altogether, it was 900!
On this day, Lu Ming’s attributes became:
Strength: 23095.5
Physique: 23095.4
Agility: 23214.2
Free Attribute Points: 10158
Lu Ming switched to another cultivation project.
Spiritual Energy Bullet Rain (Mastery) (1/1,000).
Day 103 of the Black Mist Calendar.
Lu Ming raised his slingshot, crossbow, bow, and gun shooting to the maximum level.
At the same time, the Spiritual Energy Bullet Rain went from mastery to proficiency (+200), and then to proficiency ( + 300) (35,000/100,000).
The Source Power Armor advanced again and reached perfection (10,000/1,000,000). His three-dimensional attributes increased by 400, and his free attribute points increased by 400!
Lu Ming changed his cultivation program again and prepared to start cultivating the remaining two Physique Realm Source Power Skills: Apocalypse and Atomic Sword Technique!
Day 106 of the Black Mist Calendar.
He had maxed out his basic staff techniques and basic sword techniques.
At the same time, Apocalypse and Atomic Sword Technique leveled up and reached the proficiency level.
Lu Ming obtained another 2,000 three-dimensional attributes and 2,000 free attribute points for the two Body Realm Source Power skills.
In total, it was 4,000 points!
On this day, Lu Ming’s attributes became:
Name: Lu Ming

Explosive and transformational upgrades!
Later that evening, Lu Ming slightly adjusted his cultivation plan.
“Regular exercise +10 times Knight Body Forging Technique.”
“In the remaining time, I can actually cultivate other Source Power skills.”
Knight Body Forging techniques emphasized steady progress.
On the other hand, if he used other Source Power Skills to farm his attributes, it would highlight his accumulation for greater breakthroughs.
Considering basic skill factors, Lu Ming had calculated which method would yield faster attribute gains—the other Source Power techniques would be faster initially, but Knight Body Forging Technique would be faster in the later stages.
However, one could not ignore the fact that the level of combat-related Source Power techniques was closely related to combat strength.
Basic attributes determined the lower limit of combat strength, while techniques determined the upper limit
Therefore, Lu Ming decided to do both.
His gaze shifted to the Explosive Fist that had not been inactive for a while.
“So, beyond perfection, what other levels are there? What kind of changes can it bring to the skill?”
Lu Ming did not know, but he wanted to try.
The next day was the 107th day of the Black Mist Calendar.
In the distant direction of the Spirit Clan’s gathering place, the war between the Undead Clan and the Insect Tribe, which had been ongoing for some time, was gradually coming to an end.
On the bloodstained plain, a large number of zombies of all shapes and sizes were lying or sprawled on the ground. There were even more strangely shaped insects or humanoid insects of all sizes moving across the battlefield, aiding their wounded allies or finishing off still-living zombies.
The outcome of the war was obvious at a glance…
Outside the battlefield, within the Chaoshan Division, the leader of the Blood Flame Tribe sat in the place previously occupied by the Chao Shan Tribe’s leader. His expression was gloomy but not despondent.
Observing the Blood Flame Tribe members and the Chao Shan Tribe members below, the Blood Flame Tribe leader named Ma said in a solemn tone,
“Princess (Minister Chaoshan) is dead and the war is lost. We did not capture the group of tribulation transcenders. Instead, we suffered heavy losses in the war against the Insect Tribe.”
After summarizing this, Ma noticed that his words had caused the reaction of the old subordinates of the Chao Shan Tribe members to darken.
Ma continued, “Previously, I reported the matter here to the higher-ups. The higher-ups said that they would send reinforcements. Unfortunately, our reinforcements arrived a little later than the other party.”
As the saying went, speed was a crucial asset in a war. If the soldiers were a step late, everything would be too late!
The Origin Realm experts of the Insect Tribe had arrived at the battlefield first. The situation meant a crushing defeat for the Undead Clan.
At this moment, looking at the situation, the Origin Realm experts of the Undead Clan felt that there was no need to expand the scale of the war, so they simply did not come…
“So unfortunately, the Chao Shan tribe had been abandoned.”
After saying this, Ma carefully looked at the reaction of the old subordinates of the Chao Shan Tribe. After discovering that their reaction was not intense, he continued, “The higher-ups mean to give this area to the Insect Clan and Chao Shan Tribe to join our Blood Flame Sect. From today onwards, we’ll immediately move and leave this area.”
With that said, he waved his hand, “I’ll give you two hours to pack your things.”
His subordinates dispersed one after another.
Ma instead stood up from his chair.
As he sized up the spacious meeting hall of Chaoshan Tribe, Ma did not gloat over their defeat. He had a good relationship with the princess.
But absorbing the Chao Shan Tribe for no apparent reason… If you said that Ma was despondent because of the war’s failure, it would not be true also.
In short, it was very complicated…
A moment later, Ma smiled, “This works too, it’s not bad.”
The Tribulation Transcenders who appeared here were the third batch of Tribulation Transcenders from the Mist Capital.
According to the information from Yamamoto and the others, the population density in Mist Capital on Earth was relatively low, which meant that the number of tribulation transcenders was also relatively low—at least fewer than in Nanxiang and Tokyo.
Now, the tribulation transcenders in Tokyo had already joined the Blood Flame Sect.
In addition, he also knew the location of the Nanxiang gathering place.
From the looks of it, Ma really did not need to engage in a life-and-death struggle with the Insect Tribe here—a sentiment shared by the higher-ups of the Undead Clan.
A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.
The strength of the Insect Tribe was not inferior to the Undead Clan. There was really no need to fight the Insect Tribe to the death for this batch of tribulation transcenders from the Mist City.
“However, this means that when I return to the Blood Flame Sect, I do need to address the situation in Nanxiang.”
There was a lot of room for maneuver in doing things.
Since he could not take down the ones in the east, he had to take down the ones in the west..
