Dreams and fists shatter the sky

Chapter 249: Chapter 249 You Are Already Very Powerful

The extraterrestrial reinforcements first located a frozen black planet and launched an attack. The planet shattered, and the shockwaves from the explosion damaged the surrounding normal planets. However, some reinforcements merged directly into the normal planets, immediately repairing the damage caused by the recent explosion. With this, one extinction factor disappeared, and Ye An remained unharmed. Ji Qing's face lit up with excitement. It seemed there was hope. As long as this step was repeated billions of times, Ye An could stand up unscathed. But how long would that take?

Liu Dahuo remained silent, continuing his treatment. Ji Qing understood his meaning. This was a protracted battle with no shortcuts. As long as both of them could endure, they could complete this mission!

Time passed minute by minute. Liu Dahuo became increasingly familiar with Ye An's body, hence the repair speed increased. Moreover, with each extinction factor vanishing, Ji Qing's pressure decreased slightly! Because those extinction forces were constantly resisting, Ji Qing had to continue freezing and outputting. Now, she felt the pressure diminishing and a glimmer of hope rising within. She calculated the remaining source energy in her body—it should be enough to sustain her.

After a while, the repair progress reached 30%. Liu Dahuo worked tirelessly like an emotionless machine. It was unclear how much time had passed. The repair progress reached 50%, 60%, 70%. Ji Qing's lips were slightly pale, but she thought that as long as she temporarily kept some source energy replenishment potions handy, it would be easier.

But suddenly! "Beep beep beep!!" The urgent alarm sounded. Liu Dahuo opened his eyes, released his hands, and turned to look at the nearby detection device. The device showed that Ye An no longer had any vital signs. Ji Qing's face changed slightly as she asked, "What went wrong?"

A few seconds later, Ye An's figure reappeared with a complex expression. Liu Dahuo glanced at him casually and said to Ji Qing, "You froze him to death."

"Huh?" Ji Qing was stunned.

Liu Dahuo continued, "It's the same issue. His physical strength isn't enough."

"But it doesn't need to be doubled, thirty percent is sufficient." Ye An nodded silently.

Ji Qing frowned, "Can I just issue another command?"

Liu Dahuo looked at Ye An somewhat disdainfully, "Look at your tender self."

"Your lips are all pale."

"Summon some courage yourself."

Ye An smiled awkwardly and nodded quickly. Indeed, Ji Qing just needed to issue another command. But she wasn't a Harbinger, and her internal source energy was limited. The consumption of freezing the extinction factors was already enormous for her. Issuing another command, Ji Qing might not be able to handle it.

At this moment, Liu Dahuo said lightly, "It's been three hours."

"Almost done, let's call it a day."

"The answer is already there. All you lack is increasing your physical strength by thirty percent, and oh, you also need evolutionary fluid. You figure it out yourself."

Ye An nodded.

Next, the dream ended, and everyone returned to the laboratory. Ye An glanced at the clock on the cold white wall. It was almost ten o'clock. They had arrived just after six o'clock. Three hours had passed outside. In the dream, thirty hours had passed. Ji Qing had frozen those extinction factors for thirty hours, and the repair progress was only a bit over 70%. To reach 100%, she would have to freeze them for over forty hours.

Two days and two nights!

Under the moonlight, with a slight cool breeze, Ji Qing and Ye An walked side by side on the path back home. Because the house they bought was in the suburbs, the road leading home was quiet and the street was wide, with green grass and red flowers on both sides of the hills.

Walking on such a path, Ye An felt very calm inside. He held a hot barbecue in his hand, which should have been eaten inside the shop, but Ji Qing was too beautiful, and he was worried about unnecessary trouble.

Ji Qing also felt it was appropriate to pack and go home, especially since Ye An was a celebrity now, it was easy to attract attention.

Suddenly, Ye An asked, "After such a long treatment, are you tired?"

Ji Qing was somewhat silent today. It was only after Ye An asked twice that she came back to her senses and shook her head, saying, "Not tired."

"What are you thinking about?"

Ji Qing still shook her head and said, "Nothing."

She changed the subject, "Do you know how to increase your physical strength by thirty percent?"

Ye An frowned, "Thirty percent is simple."

"Zhuque said that using the method of refining fire could increase one percent. By then, I had already reached the physical limit of the current realm."

"I'll think of a way to raise the limit again, another two percent, and ask someone for help."

"If I can't, I'll put another turn of the career heart in my dream rune and force two more points."

"Surely it's okay, just to upgrade the physical hardness of the conversion heart, feels too short."

"But at the Bright Sword Conference, I have to win."

"This is a fight for luck."

"If you can't break the face of the gods, demons, and ghosts, they won't panic."

"I want more than just to win. I want them to jump up and force them to attack me."

"Only then can we help the overall situation of the human race. Otherwise, it's just my own benefit and it's not worth it."

Ji Qing nodded silently, "Are those opponents really that strong?"

"I asked my father last night. The level of people like the Ghost Sovereign won't participate."

"Why?" Ye An wondered.

"They want to kill me, there's no reason not to come."

Ji Qing said lightly, "My father said to reduce your pressure, Zhao Huaiyi and Li He will open a competition venue on the other side during the Bright Sword Conference, specifically for opponents of that level like the Ghost Sovereign."

"If they dare not come, the luck will fall."

"By then, I will go too."

"Dual-line battle."

Ye An took a deep breath and said, "So like this?"

"Why does it sound like your side is the main show?"

Ji Qing smiled, "We won't play with real fire on our side. Everything will still depend on you."

Ye An couldn't help but curse, "Serve it."

"Still because I'm too weak."

"If I were really strong enough, you wouldn't have to bother so much."

Ji Qing comforted gently, "You are already very powerful."
