Chapter 352
Success!
A dazzling light appeared before him, and an indescribable sense of immense power surged from the core of his abdomen, instantly sweeping through his whole body.
It was like a warm torrent, washing away all the fatigue and soreness that had accumulated before.
Fang Cheng slowly lowered his body, straight as a flag, his feet touching the ground.
He leaned against the cold metal pillar, his chest heaving violently, taking deep breaths of the morning air.
The corners of his mouth, however, couldn't help but turn upward.
He didn't feel very tired; instead, he felt a lingering thrill.
If not for avoiding excessive tearing of muscle fibers, disrupting tomorrow's training plan.
He surely had to challenge once, to find out where his true physical limit was?
Fang Cheng shook his slightly sore and swollen arms, twisted his waist, producing a series of crisp cracking sounds.
Then he raised his wrist and glanced at the sports watch.
6:52.
Unknowingly, it was almost seven o'clock.
From starting to practice the "Dragon Flag" till now, this extreme static core confrontation had surprisingly lasted over an hour.
And this was because earlier high-speed running and other exercises had already consumed a lot of stamina.
Fang Cheng thought that if he were in his peak condition, he might be able to extend this time to over two hours.
Of course, the closer to the physical limit, the deeper the fitness actions stimulate the muscle groups, and naturally, the better the training effect.
Retracting his thoughtful feelings, Fang Cheng focused his attention on the floating prompt information in front of him.
[Congratulations, through effort and perseverance far beyond ordinary, your skill has reached the Grandmaster Level]
[Lifting Leg Lv 3 (0/1000)]
[Received Skill Enhancement Reward: 12 Free Attribute Points]
[Congratulations, during the battle against gravity, you have initially grasped the secret of Force Field Balance, and your basic air time has increased by 1 second]
[Please keep moving forward on this path, when your still air time exceeds 9 seconds, you might unlock unexpected abilities]
Fang Cheng's gaze swept over and finally fixated on the last two newly added prompt messages.
Besides the regular enhancement rewards for skill upgrades, there was even an additional surprise.
"Basic air time increased?"
"Unlock unexpected abilities... Could it be a flying skill?"
Fang Cheng muttered to himself, a hint of astonishment in his eyes.
This should be the first time that, after upgrading a skill to gain free attribute points, a new ability was comprehended.
Although during the novice period of training, similar dual rewards had appeared.
But it only rewarded a small amount of restricted attribute points, with an additional related Skill Effect at most.
Moreover, as the skill level increased, this situation never appeared again.
It certainly had never been like now, with an extra line clearly stating the origin of the ability, even pointing out the feasibility of unlocking a new ability.
Fang Cheng moved his slightly sore arms, stretching his body while savoring the afterglow of his breakthrough just now.
A crisp birdsong came from the forest, with distant snippets of human voices rising intermittently.
Rays of golden sunlight pierced through the morning fog, sprinkling down, giving the mountain forest a warm hue.
At this moment, the number of people exercising in the morning had evidently increased.
On the originally quiet path, there were shadows passing by from time to time.
In the park, there were also a few similarly shirtless, strong young men, all fitness enthusiasts who came here specifically to exercise.
Their gazes occasionally glanced towards Fang Cheng.
Their eyes were full of admiration and curiosity, seemingly wanting to approach and ask for advice.
It was obvious that they had also just seen this fitness expert's awe-inspiring scene while practicing the Dragon Flag.
Noticing that someone wanted to strike up a conversation, Fang Cheng immediately took off the jacket from the horizontal bar and put it on.
Without a moment's pause, he turned and quickly descended the stone-paved path down the mountain.
As for the pair of running shoes that had worn-out soles, he discarded them into a trash bin when passing by the lake on the way down.
Then, just like that, he ran barefoot across roads and streets toward his home.
..................
When he returned to the new house in Wanghu Town, his grandfather had already gotten up.
He was wearing a white practice outfit, practicing Tai Chi Boxing in the yard.
Every move was with form and style.
Fang Cheng had initially taught him this set of twenty-four-style Ma's Tai Chi Boxer hand in hand. By now, his posture was familiar and full of flair.
At this moment, seeing his grandson drenched in sweat, he wasn't very surprised, just slowly finished his pose, nodded in satisfaction:
"Hmm, full of vigor, young people should be like this, moving the bones daily so they won't rust."
Li Biyun was wiping new furniture in the living room and came out upon hearing the noise.
"Chengcheng, look at you drenched in sweat, just like you were fished out of water."
Saying that, her gaze fell on Fang Cheng's bare feet and immediately asked in surprise:
"Where are your shoes?"
Fang Cheng explained calmly:
"I couldn't resist going for a swim in the lake just now and accidentally let my shoes slip into the water."
"You child, really careless."
Li Biyun playfully scolded, putting down the rag and urged:
"Quickly go take a shower, I'll make breakfast, and it'll be ready to eat soon."
"Okay."
Fang Cheng responded, quickly heading upstairs.
The uncle's room was still quiet, clearly still indulged in dreams.
Fang Cheng returned to his own room, took a change of clothes, then went to the bathroom and locked the door.
Stripping off the sweaty clothes and pants, he stood naked in front of the wash mirror.
The body in the mirror, graceful and toned, with every muscle line nearly meeting the perfect standard of the golden ratio.
