Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 1063 - 526:
Just a little bit short.
This feeling is like a window pane as thin as a cicada’s wings.
Clearly, I can already see the scenery on the other side, and my fingers have touched that layer of membrane.
But I just lack that final bit of strength to pierce through it.
If Fang Cheng previously still had doubts about this "unexpected ability."
Then, after experiencing that brief yet real high-altitude gliding just now, he can be almost 100% certain.
This hidden skill about to be unlocked is definitely the legendary "Flying Ability"!
Fang Cheng slowly opened his palm, as if the touch of commanding the wild wind remained in his hand.
He took a deep breath, his nostrils filled with the uniquely cold scent of high altitudes, invigorating his spirit.
This is the taste of freedom, and the delight of breaking free from shackles.
"Not really a regret."
Fang Cheng closed his fingers, a hint of brilliance flashing through his eyes.
According to past experience, as long as Agility Attribute breaks through the 80-point human limit threshold, the resultant physical transformation is enough to make up for this final 0.02-second shortcoming.
It might even overflow more.
By then, I might be able to use the Skill Effects of "Powerful Ejection" and "Bounce" to instantly launch myself like a cannonball into the sky.
Then truly, like a bird, soaring high above the nine heavens with just the flesh.
"Flying..."
He murmured to himself, a wild arc forming at the corner of his mouth:
"Just like walking, running—it should be the simplest thing."
At this moment, the faint engine roar of a car came along with the night wind.
Fang Cheng lowered his gaze, looking down through the steel grid beneath his feet.
He saw on the desolate road under the TV tower, two dust-covered cars speeding towards here, one after the other.
One is a fake-plated black modified off-road, and the other is his own Range Rover.
Through the front windshield, the faces almost pressed against the glass in the driver’s seat can be clearly seen.
Xiao Shuai and Xu Hao’s expressions were anxious yet betrayed an undeniable excitement, clearly their destination is this TV tower.
"Coming quite fast..."
Fang Cheng’s eyes slightly narrowed, revealing a smile beneath the mask.
This battle was fought quite exhilaratingly.
Next comes the time to clean up the aftermath.
Fang Cheng opened his arms once more, embracing the fierce wind at high altitude for the last time, savoring its exhilarating aftertaste.
Then, he made an astonishing, illogical move.
Without a running start or bending his knees to store power, he naturally lifted one foot forward to step.
This step was set firm in the 300-meter-high void.
"Whoosh————"
The body instantly left the steel support, plunging toward the abyss.
But this time, the sensation of uncontrolled plummeting was completely absent.
The moment that foot stepped into the void, Fang Cheng clearly perceived the change in airflow around him.
The night wind that was initially invisible and intangible transformed into layers of thin yet solidly existing steps to his senses.
"Rise."
As he silently chanted in his heart, Fang Cheng adjusted his posture mid-air, leaning his body slightly forward, arms spread.
The surging blood within vibrated in a peculiar rhythm, swiftly circulating throughout his limbs and bones.
The newly enhanced levitation ability was instantly activated.
He didn’t drop straight down like a stone, but rather, like a falling feather caught by an ascending current.
If earlier he was crashing through the storm recklessly.
Then now, he is completely wielding the power of this wind.
The 300-meter height turned into an invisible slide beneath Fang Cheng’s feet.
Flying into the night sky, he drew an elegant and leisurely arc.
No need to spray steam from his pores for thrust, nor to drastically adjust his center of gravity.
Simply by fine-tuning his wind direction, he gently descended through the air.
Strolling in the air, his figure graceful, akin to the legendary wind-riding immortal.
On the road below.
Inside the speeding Range Rover, Xu Hao’s eyes widened abruptly, blurting out towards the sky:
"Holy crap! Is that... the boss? He’s flying?!"
Xiao Shuai’s hand shook, almost ripping off the steering wheel, and he slammed on the brakes.
"Screeeeech————"
The tires of the two cars skidded violently, leaving long black marks on the highway as they came to a sudden halt.
At the end of the light beams cast by the car headlights.
A figure silently descended.
There was no earth-shattering noise, no dust-rising impact.
Fang Cheng’s feet lightly touched the asphalt road, not even stirring up the slightest dust.
It was as if he had just walked down the last step, calmly standing on the ground.
At that moment, the night wind abruptly stopped.
Xiao Shuai and Xu Hao pushed open the car doors and rushed out, but upon seeing the scene before them, their steps froze simultaneously.
The strong car lights shone on Fang Cheng.
The man, naked with a muscular build and wearing a white Evil Ghost Mask, quietly stood there.
His body seemed to still have residual heat, slightly distorting the air around him.
His perfectly defined muscles exuded a suffocating sense of oppression under the interplay of light and shadow.
"Ch... Chairman..."
Xiao Shuai swallowed his saliva, his voice involuntarily trembling.
Fang Cheng slowly raised his hand, removing the mask from his face, revealing his cold yet calm visage.
He casually tossed the mask to Xiao Shuai, speaking in a flat tone, as if he had just taken a stroll downstairs:
"Drive more steadily next time; you almost hit me."
Xiao Shuai fumbled to catch the mask, warm as he held it as if it were a national treasure.
He clearly remained in a state of brain overload-induced stupor.
Beside him, Xu Hao’s mouth was agape enough to fit an egg, his eyes fixed on Fang Cheng’s unscathed body.
As if looking at a Monkey that just jumped out of the alchemy furnace of the Grand Supreme Elder Lord.
Fang Cheng paid no attention to the two fools, turning his neck for his own sake.
"Crack."
The crisp sound of a joint echoing distinctly in the quiet night.
The feeling of leaping down from the TV signal tower was indeed marvelous.
His body felt inexplicably lighter, as if he was no longer a terrestrial creature only capable of freefall motion.
Compared to the fierce momentum of falling from a kilometer high, that jump just now had a more relaxed and composed sense of control.
This was the direct feedback from the improved suspension ability.
Even though he hadn’t unlocked the "Flying" skill yet, just that final 0.02 seconds away.
But the understanding of riding the wind has truly been etched into his bones, becoming instinct manifesting in specific actions.
Reining in his thoughts, Fang Cheng raised his eyes, scanning the slightly desolate surroundings.
The dry grass by the roadside rustled in the night breeze.
In the direction of the half-finished building in the distance, black smoke and fire still lingered.
Seeing the two underlings still dumbfoundedly standing in place, Fang Cheng slightly furrowed his eyebrows, then asked:
"I told you to stay on the periphery and monitor the situation; any findings?"
"Huh? Oh!"
Xiao Shuai jolted awake, quickly straightening his posture and respectfully reporting:
"Reporting to Chairman! After you and the prey arrived at the half-finished building, we set up many surveillance devices around the area as planned, and so far we’ve found nothing suspicious."
Xu Hao, standing to the side, pounded his chest noisily, adding:
"Yeah, boss, Xiao Shuai and I kept our eyes peeled like copper bells, ensuring nothing slipped past!"
Pausing, he sneaked a glance behind Fang Cheng and cautiously asked:
"Boss, that... bastard who planted the bomb, did you take care of him?"
Fang Cheng, while flexing his wrist, nodded slightly:
"Yeah, turned to ash."
"Nice!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Hao excitedly slapped his thigh, nearly jumping up:
"I knew it, boss, you’re off the charts strong! That little punk only playing with bombs is just a firecracker that makes noise in front of you!"
Though Xiao Shuai said nothing, the admiration in his eyes deepened a bit more.
Reacting quickly, he immediately dove into the back seat of the SUV, retrieving a brand new set of clothes he’d prepared earlier and handing it over.
"Chairman, put on some clothes; it’s chilly at night."
Fang Cheng took the clothes, and without hesitation, began dressing in the middle of the highway.
