"Originally, it took me 85 seconds to restore one unit of Energy Value, but now it's reduced to just 68 seconds for one unit, cutting down by 17 seconds. I feel I'm getting closer to under sixty seconds."

Of course, what's even more important is Zhang Yanhang's body growth speed. It used to take Zhang Yanhang fifty seconds to grow one centimeter, but now it's reduced to just forty seconds per centimeter, cutting off ten more seconds.

This way, Zhang Yanhang is currently able to automatically grow 90 centimeters in height every hour, and the daily growth rate has increased from the original 1728 centimeters to 2160 centimeters a day, improving the efficiency by 432 centimeters.

"I've finally completed the small goal I set earlier to increase my body growth speed to over twenty meters, which I initially thought would be difficult, but now it seems like I can aim even higher."

Since this small goal was completed relatively smoothly, Zhang Yanhang plans to set his subsequent small goal to twenty-five meters directly. Just because, currently, the Swallowing Heaven and Earth Skill has been upgraded to LV.MAX and can no longer be enhanced, his subsequent improvements can only be addressed from the Energy Value Recovery Speed perspective.

Zhang Yanhang intends to see if he can trigger more related adventures afterward, striving to significantly raise the Energy Value Recovery Speed.

"Based on the calculation of 2.8 meters per floor, my current daily growth in height is equivalent to the height of 7.7 levels of a building, not bad."

However, with the increase in body growth speed, Zhang Yanhang's demand for Subordinate Sage Stones is gradually increasing. The portion of Subordinate Sage Stones he had in stock before upgrading was probably enough to last ten days.

But now, since part has been consumed from morning to afternoon, the remaining Subordinate Sage Stones, even with a full count, can only last around seven more days, aligning roughly with Zhang Yanhang's prior estimations.

Fortunately, the issue is not significant because he currently has a large number of corpses in inventory. Even if the Energy Value absorption efficiency improves again later, it will surely sustain for quite some time without any shortage occurring in a short period, affecting his body growth.

After thoroughly upgrading the Swallowing Heaven and Earth Skill, since he's not in a hurry to upgrade the Death Wave Skill for now, Zhang Yanhang took out the artifacts stored in his waist bag, preparing to consume them altogether.

First and foremost were the lowest quality Yellow Medicine Grass, from which Zhang Yanhang had originally stored sixteen plants, so he simultaneously took out sixteen Red Medicine Herbs and synthesized them into sixteen Blue Quality Red and yellow pills. Each Red and yellow pill can increase the Life Value Limit by 6 points.

But because Zhang Yanhang currently has the Original LV.MAX level Swallowing Heaven and Earth Skill, offering a 100% artifact usage effect, thus after the enhancement, it can actually increase to an improvement effect of twelve points in Life Value Limit.

As a result, these sixteen Blue Quality Red and yellow pills together can provide Zhang Yanhang with an increase of 192 points in the Life Value Limit.

But this is still not the limit, because Zhang Yanhang also has a 208% Life Value Limit effect bonus, so these 192 points in Life Value Limit will ultimately be amplified to an increase of 591 points.

Moreover, apart from that, Zhang Yanhang's current Heavenly Mastery Dominator Body LV.6 currently has a total Life Value Limit of 222%, so after the final amplification, merely sixteen Blue Quality Red and yellow pills are already enough to provide Zhang Yanhang with 1312 points of Life Value Limit increase.

Zhang Yanhang recalled that his total Life Value Limit during the First Tier seemed to be less than a thousand points, and at that time, he also consumed a substantial amount of Red and yellow pills, possibly around seventy or eighty in number, yet even so, it was still only 849 points of Life Value Limit.

But now, under the intense stacking of various bonuses, the Blue Quality Red and yellow pills that should have been eliminated long ago can instead provide him with a far higher Life Value Limit increase than during the First Tier.

It can be said that now an average Blue Quality Red and yellow pill exhibits an effect roughly equivalent to fourteen times that of a normal Red and yellow pill before, one pill is equivalent to fourteen pills, even Zhang Yanhang has to marvel at the incredible bonuses he currently possesses.

After consuming these sixteen Blue Quality Red and yellow pills, Zhang Yanhang began counting the next artifact, which is from the Umbrella Biochemical Test Field: [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicine]. After cleaning out the entire Umbrella Biochemical Test Field and the corresponding Lucky Slot Machine prize pool, Zhang Yanhang has acquired a total of twenty [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicines].

Zhang Yanhang is not too familiar with the [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicine], since he hasn't used it at all after acquiring it, so he casually checked the attribute list of the [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicine].

[T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicine]

[Quality: Dark Gold]

[Type: Artifact]

[Origin: Ashen World, Umbrella Biochemical Test Field, A-3 Integrated Research Base.]

[Usage effect: Increases Life Value Limit by 360 points.]

[Usage requirements: Constitution of 100 points.]

[Score: 445 (Dark Gold Item score is between 441 and 530.)]

[Introduction: Just happened to deliver a document, but unexpectedly bumped into my little assistant while changing clothes, she gathered her strength 'he~' then 'tui!' spat in disdain and walked away, then threatened to report me for workplace sexual harassment. She clearly entered without knocking, why then retaliate against me with a lawsuit? This is too unfair...]

"As a Dark Gold quality artifact, [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicine] can help me increase my Life Value Limit by 360 points, and after the Swallowing Heaven and Earth enhancement, it can increase to 720 points in Life Value Limit."

And this is only the effect of a single [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicine], Zhang Yanhang has a total of twenty of them, and all combined, just the basic effect of the artifact alone can increase the Life Value Limit by 14400 points.

And after a 208% Life Value Limit effect bonus, these [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicines] can provide Zhang Yanhang with a total of 44352 points in Life Value Limit.

However, after this, this portion of Life Value Limit still needs to undergo a further 222% increase due to the Heavenly Mastery Dominator Body, ultimately helping Zhang Yanhang enhance his Life Value Limit by 98461 points.

"And my current Life Value Limit, even if all three health bars are combined, only amounts to 142689 points, so these [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicines] alone can help me increase my Life Value Limit by more than seventy percent."

After swallowing all twenty bottles of [T/G Synthetic Virus Modification Medicines] into the Stomach Space, Zhang Yanhang immediately felt a substantial surge of pure Life Energy emerging within his body, but as it came quickly, it dissipated rapidly too, soon integrating into various parts of his body and vanishing without a trace.

After counting the [T/G Synthetic Virus Transformation Medicine], Zhang Yanhang picked up a bottle of [Mutated Ancestor Virus Liquid (Divine Attribute Gathering)], a legendary artifact that he had obtained quite a while ago. However, he hesitated to use it because he hadn't upgraded the Heaven and Earth Devourer skill yet.

Before swallowing it into his Stomach Space for complete digestion, Zhang Yanhang opened the attribute list of the [Mutated Ancestor Virus Liquid (Divine Attribute Gathering)] and took a glance.

[Mutated Ancestor Virus Liquid (Divine Attribute Gathering)]

[Quality: Legendary]

[Type: Artifact]

[Origin: Ashen World, Umbrella Biochemical Test Field.]

[Usage effect: Increases Life Value Limit by 1440 points, Maximum Life Value Conversion Coefficient +8.]

[Usage requirements: Constitution 140 points.]

[Score: 980 (Legendary Items Score ranges from 831 to 980.)]

[Description: After successfully developing the nuclear fusion reactor, I devoted all my efforts to subsequent development and optimization work. Within just a few years, I made further optimizations and transformations, allowing the nuclear fusion reactor to be miniaturized and supply energy for some large machinery...]

"This bottle of [Mutated Ancestor Virus Liquid (Divine Attribute Gathering)] as a legendary item, can alone increase the Life Value Limit by 1440 points, and additionally increase the Maximum Life Value Conversion Coefficient by 8 points.

After the Heaven and Earth Devourer enhancement, it can transform into an increase of 2880 points in Life Value Limit and a Maximum Life Value Conversion Coefficient of 16 points."

With Zhang Yanhang's current Constitution attribute of 123 points, the sixteen-point Maximum Life Value Conversion Coefficient can increase the Life Value Limit by 1968 points, so altogether it can increase the Life Value Limit by 4848 points.

Further enhanced by the Life Value Limit increase effect of 208%, it can provide Zhang Yanhang with a boost of 14932 points in Life Value Limit.

Finally, through the Heavenly Mastery Dominator Body's total Life Value Limit enhancement of 222%, it can achieve a total increase of 33149 points in the Life Value Limit.

It can be said that this single bottle of the legendary [Mutated Ancestor Virus Liquid (Divine Attribute Gathering)] equates to one-third of the enhancement effect of the twenty bottles of Dark Gold Quality [T/G Synthetic Virus Transformation Medicine].

Therefore, one bottle of [Mutated Ancestor Virus Liquid (Divine Attribute Gathering)] is approximately equivalent to seven bottles of [T/G Synthetic Virus Transformation Medicine].

Since there is a full three quality levels difference of Dark Gold, Orange, and Red between the two, Zhang Yanhang feels that this level of disparity is indeed very normal.

After reviewing the usage effects, Zhang Yanhang quickly swallowed the bottle of [Mutated Ancestor Virus Liquid (Divine Attribute Gathering)] into his Stomach Space.

At this point, all of the items related to the Life Value Limit on Zhang Yanhang had been used, so he immediately opened his Life Value Limit to check how much it could be increased by this wave.

[Life Value: 57108/91870/126633/275611 (Constitution ×124(+16), the current body has been formally data-converted, Life Value Recovery Speed, 151 points per hour.)]

"As I estimated earlier, indeed my Maximum Life Value Conversion Coefficient has grown by 16 points again, directly rising from 108 points to 124 points."

Meanwhile, Zhang Yanhang's total Life Value Limit across the three stages increased from the previous 142689 points directly to 275611 points, equivalent to an increase of 132922 points in Life Limit, almost nearly doubled.

Before promoting to Fifth Tier and acquiring the Heavenly Mastery Dominator Body, Zhang Yanhang couldn't imagine he could retain such a massive increase in Life Value Limit, making it even harder for the Energy Value Limit to catch up.

"My previous small target was to raise the Life Value Limit to 145,000 points, but now my Life Limit has reached 275,000 points, essentially meeting twenty-seven small targets at once."

However, this magnitude of increase is rare and non-reproducible, so Zhang Yanhang still intends to set the next small target at 280,000 points.

Besides improving the skill level of the Heavenly Mastery Dominator Body, he feels there aren't many good paths for enhancing the Life Value Limit at the Fifth Tier, so a five thousand-point small target should be absolutely sufficient.

Zhang Yanhang plans to aim for larger small targets once his Life Value Limit exceeds 300,000 points.

Currently, Zhang Yanhang is still short 4389 points of Life Value Limit for reaching the small target of 280,000 points. He thinks as long as he casually upgrades the Heavenly Mastery Dominator Body, it should be easily accomplished.

"The Life Value Limit in the three stages now have reached 57108/91870/126633, even the lowest first stage is far above the previous Peak Fourth Tier Period."

If calculating the total Life Value Limit, Zhang Yanhang's current 275611 points of Life Value Limit is already 6.4 times the 43256 points during the Peak Fourth Tier Period.

Zhang Yanhang used to say things like Life Value Limit absolutely could not be like Strength that increases tenfold with each Rank advancement, but now at the Fifth Tier, Zhang Yanhang feels it might actually be possible to enhance the Life Value Limit more than tenfold; he is currently 3.6 times short, with some effort, achieving this seems quite hopeful.

"A normal Fifth Tier Awakened might commonly have 8125 points of Life Value Limit. Previously, my Life Limit was just 17.6 times that of a Fifth Tier Awakened, but now my Life Value Limit has grown to 33.9 times that of a Fifth Tier Awakened, effectively increasing by 16.3 times, equal to the total Life Value Limit of 16 Fifth Tier Awakened."

Zhang Yanhang remembers setting a previous small target of reaching 18 times the Life Value Limit of a Fifth Tier Awakened. This small target was easily completed, and simultaneously, another fifteen successive small targets.

Currently, Zhang Yanhang is only 0.1 times short of achieving the next small target of reaching 34 times the Life Value Limit of a Fifth Tier Awakened, similar to the Life Value Limit aspect, this small target is effortlessly achievable with virtually no difficulty.
