Was it because that the imbalance of strength caused this skill to be unusable?

Dugu Hong could only think of one possibility .

He restarted the big cycle rotation that had been stopped for a whole year . Intuitively he felt that could be the key .

The reserve power, which had been several times thicker, started to circulate in Dugu Hong’s channels . His weak meridians couldn’t bear such a strong change . It was like forcing a big foot into a small shoe, the pains of which were no less than that of opening the meridians for the first time .

The faint power channels started shining brightly . The channel points were also growing at a mad speed, limiting the internal power for other uses . Everything was indicating that his body was returning to the original state .

Du Guhong did not stop this change, he suddenly understood . . .

The reserve power inside him was water, his blood and his potential, which was inspired by mind thoughts and since obeying to the commands of mind .

The meridians, were the canals and the channel points were the dams .

How stable the dams were would determine whether the reserve power could be operated freely and withstand the impact of strong currents .

Therefore, without enough channel points, cultivation and internal forces, one’s skills would be restricted to some extent .

Otherwise, the dam could not stand the pressure of the torrent . Once it was broken, the internal force would plunge for thousands of miles . This was the so-called obsession .

After running around the clock for a whole day and night, Dugu Hong had some changes in his body condition . The rates stabilized at: 100,167; 200,333; and 300,500 .

The ratio of free internal strength to the number of channel points was 1:2 . Apparently this was the limit of how much the body could adjust automatically .

Among them, the number of channel points exceeded 190,000, allowing Dugu Hong to win ‘plus 3’ rewards on all his basic attributes .

However, the outbreak of internal power was still not enabled . But now he knew that this was the result of the lack of free internal strength .

When he re-trained his free internal strength to 150,000, he would obtain freedom again .

According to the speed of the health regime, it would be after twenty days .

Undeniably, modernization was the most profitable industry ever created by mankind .

Its toxic level was not inferior to that of drugs . It was impossible for people to get rid of it .

Its means were more subtle than pyramid sales, more effective than forced sales and more reasonable than deceptive sales .

The most terrifying fact was that it had gradually evolved into a human instinct and a natural need, rather than a desire .

The best proof was that even autistic teenagers who lacked desires had to be dominated by such an instinct and come to the largest computer brain market in Beijing .

His old brain computer was more than three years old . Its computing speed was no longer as good as before . Let alone when compared to the accelerated computing speed of new generation of brain computers .

Many times, he even had to manually operate to complete the calculations that was too much for some machines . This situation was of no problem before . In the old times, he was not famous . Nobody would challenge him on the network .

But now, with dark hacker striking out for more times, his fame got bigger and wider . There were also increasing number of defenders against the dark hacker .

But Dugu Hong still had a human brain, which could not complete replace functions of computer brains . So he had to carry out his robberies on websites that had loopholes .

“Welcome to the largest computer store in Asia . The latest models of the most popular computer brains are displayed on the top six floor . Promotional biological computer brains are available on the fifth floor . The classic electronic computers are on the fourth floor . If you need to buy super terminals, place bulk orders or need customization, please go to the third floor . There are dedicated service staff for you…”

In the background of pleasing but old style advertisements, Dugu Hong walked out of the underground ramp slowly, heading to the market entrance under a swimming pool sized electronic screen .

There were no crowds, no noises, only sparse population outside the subway station, although this was the so called busiest subway station in Beijing .

This was all because of the existence of the high-speed air traffic network .

Dugu Hong did not like to take the airbus, the air train, the air taxi, and everything related to the air . It was easy to understand his logic .

Air traffic network did not only change Dugu Hong and his family, but also changed the whole world . Since its introduction, the whole world seemed to be upside down .

A lot of things had become very different from before, for example -

The entrance of a building was not on the ground, but on its roof top . When the built-in elevator was idle, it would automatically stop on the highest floor .

Bus stations, shops and signs that people were used to no longer occupied the narrow space on the ground . They now located on platforms that stretched between tall buildings .

In the metropolis, there were no more eight car lanes, ten car lanes, overpasses, rush hours or traffic jams . Instead, there was an air traffic network in cities .
