My Checkpoint System Turned Me Into The Godfather of Humanity

Nine Tribulations of the Divine Fists

Immediately, the Lin family elder’s body shuddered as a strong aura of life permeated his entire body. Like a plant exposed to heavy rain after a long drought, the Lin family elder’s wrinkled skin became fuller at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The deathly energy in his body was suppressed as he slowly regained life.

What Chu He had just used was a drop of life elixir, which he had gained from one of his check-ins.

Its main use was to increase longevity, whilst its side effects were able to heal martial artists who had suffered wounds that had damaged the foundations of their power and caused blood and qi decay.

If the Lin family elder had used the life elixir right after he had gotten injured, his wounds would have healed completely and he would be full of life.

Unfortunately, his injury had been left untreated for too long. As the years passed by, the wounds had sapped the life out of him and the damage was not reversible.

A drop of life elixir was only enough to heal his wounds and replenish a little bit of his life. It was not enough to make up for all the life that had seeped out of his body.

With his current injuries, he would require at least ten drops of life elixir if he wanted to heal completely. Either that or some kind of treasure that could extend a demi-king’s life.

However, that was no longer any of Chu He’s concern.

The only reason he had taken out a drop of life elixir was for Lin Xueling’s sake.

Of course, there was another reason for that. Chu He wanted the elder to hang on for a few more years until Lin Xueling could breakthrough and become a demi-king. Then, no one would dare challenge the Lin family and he could check-in without any worries.

When the medicine was fully digested, Chu He nodded and waved his hand again to retrieve a forbidden technique seal he had claimed during his check-ins. He slapped it onto the Lin family elder’s body.

With the seal in place, the old man could fight at full force even if his body was in bad shape.

Once he was done, Chu He put his hands behind his back and left.

The Lin family elder, who had previously been lying on the bed, gave a whoop and leaped to his feet like an inferi.

He could feel a massive change taking place inside his body. All his weakness had disappeared and he could once again feel the long-lost sense of power returning to his body.

“This, this feeling.”

The Lin family elder was in disbelief. He felt as if he was dreaming.

Today had started as his last day of being alive.

Who would have thought that just as he was about to take his last breath...

A Senior would appear and place a drop of a mysterious elixir on his forehead that would cause his health to undergo a complete turnaround.

“Thank you for rejuvenating me, Senior.”

The Lin family elder stood and placed one fist in the other hand as he bowed deeply in the direction Chu He had departed, a respectful and grateful expression on his face.

That Senior had rejuvenated him.

“Family… Family Elder, are you alright now?”

Just then, the rest of the Lin family who was at the secret temple regained control over their bodies after Chu He left. They hurriedly rushed toward the family elder and crowded around him.

As they looked at the Lin family elder, who had been restored to normal, they turned to gaze at the door to the secret temple in unison. Looks of horror appeared on their faces when they recalled how scary the incident had been.

“Send out the fake news of my death tomorrow so that we can bait the bandits out of hiding. I shall make full use of the energy I have now that there are an additional five years for me.”

“We need to be thorough with it if we’re putting on a show. We can’t let anyone find out. Don’t announce it with great fanfare, but be secretive. It will be more believable that way.”

The Lin family elder calmed down from his euphoria and instantly began making plans.

The Senior had given him an additional five years to live, and he would not be in a half-dead state but rather one where he could fight with full force. He would not let the Senior down.

Five years was not much.

He had to do his best in getting rid of obstacles for the Lin family whilst he could still move.

...

Chu He returned to the book depository.

It was past midnight now and could be regarded as the arrival of a new day. The checkpoint panel would be refreshed and activated now.

Ding! Successful check-in. Rewarded with Nine Tribulations of the Divine Fists.

The system panel was refreshed after that.

Chu He touched the golden book on the system panel using his consciousness. A simple introduction to the Nine Tribulations of the Divine Fists immediately appeared in his mind.

The Nine Tribulations of the Divine Fists were extremely powerful and suited him well. There were nine levels to it in total.

Its effects were simple.

It was power that could stack on top of each other layer by layer.

The power would double with every additional layer that was stacked on.

The first level was not much, but the more you went on, the scarier and more obscene the power became.

This power was worth cultivating.

Chu He retrieved the secret golden scroll from the System Space and slapped it against his forehead.

Instantly, he felt his brain waves vibrating as the Nine Tribulations of the Divine Fists began taking place inside him. A vast ocean of knowledge entered his mind, turning into a set of information for him to comprehend.

Chu He shut his eyes as he immersed himself within the information.

A long while later, he opened his eyes, a glint of intelligence visible within them.

He had cultivated the entire first level of the Nine Tribulations.

Chu He clenched his fists together, suddenly itching to try it out.

After some thought, he waved his hand and placed two formations on the ground. Then, feeling that it was not safe enough, he added another three.

These formations were all for defense. Each one of them could hold against a full-force attack from a fifth-level king.

He waited for the formations to settle into place.

Chu He raised an arm and threw a punch into the void.

The force of the punch flew from his fist and grew in size as it collided with the air after leaving his fist. Within seconds, it expanded to look like the silhouette of Gold Hill.

It landed on the first formation with a bang. The formation did not even fight against it for an instant before it shattered to the ground in pieces along with its array plate. Then, it shattered the second, third, and fourth one before a sign of a struggle was visible. The punch still had the strength left to shatter the fifth one and would have destroyed the entire Lin Mansion and half of Lin City if Chu He had not waved a hand to disperse it.

It was just the first level, but it was already immensely powerful. Not bad.

Chu He nodded his approval for this power. He felt that this one would earn a spot in his top ten favorite powers, amongst the many others he possessed.
