Every time he finished practicing a weapon, he felt that his proficiency in the use of all weapons increased simultaneously.
After finishing all the exercises, picking up the nine-foot alloy spear again gave me a different experience.
Xue Jing seemed to understand something.
"As expected, what I practiced was the [Art of Strike]."
"The so-called [Weapon Strike] refers to the understanding of the concept of 'weapon' itself, rather than a single type of weapon..."
"Once there is progress, there will be immediate progress in the use of all weapons."
"Unlike those warriors who specialize in a single weapon, I follow the path of 'the path of mastering all weapons'."
Xue Jing danced the spear in his hand into a spiral stick flower, as if he was holding a large electric fan in his hand, and it even made a "tick-tick-tick" sound like a helicopter. The violent airflow blew the curtains in the room wildly, almost making them come off.
At the end of the dance, the spear in his hand suddenly stopped, and then stabbed forward fiercely!
“Swish!!”
A light golden sharp spear light shot out from the tip of the spear, piercing forward and directly turning the upper body of the iron dummy fist pile into nothingness.
The spear light, nearly half a meter wide and eight meters long, stayed on the tip of the spear and did not dissipate, like a solid. As Xue Jing's hand holding the spear tilted slightly, the spear light gently touched the ground.
Just like the lightsaber in science fiction works, just a slight touch to the ground will leave a sharp mark on the hard wooden floor, just like butter being scraped by a hot knife.
"The place is too small to fully display the weapon. The spear blade can be longer and bigger."
Xue Jing nodded.
"Very good, when the race starts, I'll let you run 39 meters..."
Putting the spear back on the weapon rack, Xue Jing wiped the sweat from his forehead and then opened the panel.
His eyes moved to the divine skill column.
"Since Zhou Yinglin is related to the Secret Martial Arts Society, he must also know my identity as the 'God's Chosen One'..."
"If he wanted to kill me, he would definitely take my 'God-given Secret Technique' into consideration. He would have the confidence to attack me. Maybe he has something to rely on, so we have to be on guard."
After a little consideration, Xue Jing looked at the 4178 divinity in the inventory and clicked on [Shadow Flame].
[Shadow Flame Lv7 (4178/3000)]
"The current Flower God sexual plan has only one guideline."
"Leave 1,000 points for the regular skills that can be upgraded at any time, and put the rest into [Shadow Flame]. Max it out as soon as possible and bring out the 'Incarnation of Divinity'."
Having made the decision, Xue Jing immediately pressed Yingyan's upgrade button.
[Shadow Flame Lv8 (1178/4500)]
"The next upgrade will cost 4,500... so 9 to 10 will be 6,000."
"Add to that the two thousand needed to activate the divine incarnation, a total of twelve thousand five hundred divinities are needed..."
"It's not too far away. The Qingcheng government still owes me ten divine relics. Even if it's 5,000 divine powers, plus the 1,000 I have now, there's still a gap of more than 6,000 left."
"However, there is no guarantee that I won't spend it on other skills along the way... It would be great if I could enter another borderland like 'Roaring Waterfall' where I could earn a lot of divinity."
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Xue Jing snapped his fingers and cast Shadow Flame, drawing out a black air current from the shadows in the training room and igniting a ball of black flame on his palm.
Perhaps it was because he had reached Level 8, the black flames he condensed now felt like they were getting darker and darker.
There were ripples all around it, like a black hole, almost sucking in all the light around it.
After experiencing the changes in Shadow Flame after the upgrade, Xue Jing was about to try out its power when he suddenly had an idea.
Instinctively he looked at his arms.
The next moment, his arm... melted.
The entire arm quickly disappeared and transformed into black flame!
"coax-"
Xue Jing blinked and looked at the arm that had lost its shape and completely turned into black flames, and was surprised.
"Is this... Elementalization?"
Without any hesitation, Xue Jing reached out and picked up the eight-sided Han sword on the weapon rack next to him and held it in his backhand.
Then he stabbed himself hard in the stomach.
"Squeak—"
Without any hindrance, the eight-sided Han sword went straight through his body, entering from his stomach and coming out from his back.
But no blood flowed out of Xue Jing's stomach, only wisps of black flames emanated from the 'wound'.
"this… "
Xue Jing's eyes widened.
After pulling out the Eight-sided Han Sword, countless black flames suddenly condensed from the "wound" on his stomach, filling it and restoring it to perfection.
Even the clothes were not damaged.
"Hmm? A user of the Nature-type Shadow Flame Fruit?"
Xue Jing scratched his head, put the Eight-sided Han Sword back into the weapon rack, and then sat down cross-legged.
After calming down his somewhat excited mood, Xue Jing immersed his thoughts into the space of consciousness.
Countless small pixels swept through like a storm, creating a wilderness scene.
Xue Jing himself was present in the consciousness space. He clenched his palms, and after confirming that the data was correct, he had an idea.
Dozens of opponents began to appear around him, all of them were his past enemies, including Li Chengxuan, Jiao Hongyuan, Yan Xiangweng, the sky pirate leader, the man with four-dimensional senses, Du Mingluan... and even different kinds of dragons and cockroach monsters.
All the people and animals had angry expressions on their faces after they appeared. All kinds of dragon thunder, flames, and energy immediately attacked Xue Jing.
Without any movement, Xue Jing just put his hands behind his back and calmly watched all the violent attacks coming towards him.
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!”
He was instantly submerged in countless attacks, blasted into pieces on the spot, and dissipated into nothingness.
However, the next moment, in the huge crater on the battlefield that was blasted out by countless attacks, countless scattered wisps of black flames gathered towards the center.
All the black flames gathered together and slowly took shape, transforming into a human figure.
Then, the human-shaped black flame slowly transformed and restored itself into the intact Xue Jing, with even his clothes intact.
"What? Are you guys tickling me? I haven't eaten yet, can you please use more force?"
Xue Jing dug his ear with his little finger, looked around, and raised his eyebrows.
"roar!!"
The angry dragon roar resounded through heaven and earth, and countless attacks fell again.
Xue Jing chuckled and did not endure the attacks anymore. Instead, he opened his arms and turned into black flames, spreading out in all directions.
The scattered black flames flew behind a cockroach monster one after another, merged together, and condensed into the shape of Xue Jing.
He raised his right fist and blasted the cockroach monster in front of him into pieces with a thunder and fire boiling cauldron. Xue Jing looked at his fist and muttered to himself:
"Now... I'm truly invincible."
…
Chapter 210: Yuancheng, Zhou Yinglin, the Dragon Cult's Son, Yuuga Suzuka, and the reactions of all parties to Xue Jing (4K)
He pulled the nine-foot-long spear in his hand out from the chest of Li Chengxuan in front of him and swung it to the side.
The dozen-meter-long spear light extending from the tip of the gun swept across the bodies of a dozen cockroach monsters, leaving a light golden fan-shaped trajectory, cutting off the lazy waists of all the cockroach monsters, and dark green mucus flowed all over the ground.
He wielded the spear, creating trails of gunfire, and constantly stabbed or swept his opponents to death.
Soon, there were no more enemies on the battlefield. Xue Jing stretched out the spear in his hand to the side, pointing it diagonally at the ground. His whole body, face, chest, abdomen... were covered with deep "wounds", but not a drop of blood flowed out of the wounds, but boiling black flames continued to burn.
As the black airflow continuously transformed into black flames to fill his wounds, he soon recovered to his full health, with even his clothes not damaged.
Relying on Shadow Flame's new function 'Elementalization', Xue Jing did not dodge from beginning to end, and calmly dealt with all the enemies present one by one.
"… This new ability is pretty cheating."
"I don't know if there are any special attacks that can target me in reality... but at least magic attacks like 'Dragon Thunder' can't break my 'Elementalization'."
"The only problem is that it consumes too much energy."
Xue Jing frowned slightly.
Although he was invincible, he was not invincible without any limits.
After he was annihilated by countless attacks for the second time, turned into nothingness and re-condensed his body, he found that Shadow Flame's 'blue bar' was almost empty.
This is Lv8 Shadow Flame... Ever since this skill was upgraded to Lv4, Xue Jing has used it in various Gundam battles, and it is rare that there is not a drop left. As long as the surrounding shadow area is large enough, the blue bar will grow ridiculously long.
But now, Shadow Flame, whose level has clearly reached Lv8 and whose blue bar length has more than doubled compared to Lv4, was drained after several elementalizations.
If this wasn't a consciousness space, Xue Jing could restore the blue bar with just a thought. In reality, he couldn't just stand there and pierce through all the enemies so arrogantly.
"But it's not bad. The consumption of 'Elementalization' varies according to the degree of injury... Although the mana bar will be drained after only two uses of the whole body repair, if it's just the head repair, it can be used at least five or six times."
Xue Jing calculated.
"In this case, in an emergency, for those minor injuries, I can just activate my vitality to recover. The more I save, the better. If I encounter a fatal blow that cannot be avoided, I can use 'elementization'..."
"Anyway, with this new ability, my ability to save my life has been improved by several levels. I don't know how many more lives I have. Except for the inability to delay resurrection and the inability to be fully healthy after resurrection, it is more useful than 'Twins'!"
Xue Jing let out a long breath, and withdrew from the consciousness space with a thought.
“Next, we just have to wait for the U19 finals in a few days.”
…
The fifth urban circle, Yuancheng.
In a hundred-story skyscraper filled with pale golden floor-to-ceiling windows and holographic advertisements of various colors constantly rotating around it.
In the room on the top floor, next to the floor-to-ceiling window, stood a young man with a childish face and eyes as sharp as an eagle's.
At a glance, his appearance was nothing special. He was wearing white hotel pajamas and was a little over 1.80 meters tall. Apart from his eyes and slightly longer arms that almost reached above his knees, there was nothing special about him.
But only those who are in the know can understand how talented and brilliant this young man is and how noble his identity is.
A middle-aged man standing not far behind the young man was holding his hands in front of him, looking a little restless and nervous.
The disciple of Wu Xuanzhu, the 'Eternal Lord of Arms' and 'Spear Saint'... This title itself is enough to make anyone who understands the concept go weak in the knees.
Not to mention that his halo is not limited to this. He himself was born into the Zhou family, one of the 'Four High Families', which is particularly special among the thirteen wealthy families...
Although he is not a direct descendant, he also has an extremely impressive background. He is a close friend of Takeshiro Akira, the third son of the direct descendant of the small branch of the Take family in the capital, who is one of the thirteen wealthy families. They have been friends since childhood and are as close as brothers.
If we count the others, there are also the 'Vice President of the Night City Branch of the Martial Arts Association', the 'Leader of the Eastern United Youth Martial Arts Alliance', and the 'Core Member of the Secret Martial Arts Society'...
All kinds of identities and titles, no matter which one you mention, are difficult for ordinary young people to achieve...even most people will never get them in their lifetime.
Such a being who possessed so many glories suddenly called him over to meet him alone... The middle-aged man felt extremely stressed and sweated all over, fearing that he had offended him in some way that he had not noticed.
As time went by, the boy didn't say anything. He just looked up at the floor-to-ceiling window in silence. The middle-aged man was under increasing pressure.
His breathing became more and more rapid. Just when he was about to pass out from over-breathing due to the pressure, the young man pinpointed the limit point very accurately and spoke softly:
"Mr. Li, what are you doing standing there? Sit down."
As soon as these words were spoken, they seemed to have a special magical power. The middle-aged man named Li Ziyuan felt as if he had drunk a glass of iced juice in one breath in the middle of summer. The pressure on his body was swept away in an instant, and he felt extremely relaxed.
It was as if the previous invisible huge pressure had never existed.
Although he felt relieved physically, Li Ziyuan became more cautious in his heart.
Although he has never practiced martial arts, as the person in charge of the U19 Unlimited Elite Fighting Tournament, he has sufficient understanding of martial arts and its various systems even if he does not practice martial arts.
Being able to influence others' psychological or even physical state with just one sentence is a manifestation of an extremely high "spiritual energy level".
"Mr. Zhou, I'll just stand here." Li Ziyuan said modestly.
Zhou Yinglin didn't care. He just looked through the French window at the building in the distance that was surrounded by clouds and mist. It was so huge that it looked like the "Jianmu" in mythology.
Due to the extremely long distance, the specific details could not be seen clearly, and only a blurry blackness could be seen. However, it was so huge that it truly reached the sky and the earth, penetrating into the clouds for who knows how many tens of thousands of meters.
The hundred-story building where Zhou Yinglin was located was nearly four hundred and fifty meters high, but compared to it, he was like an ant under the feet of an elephant.
