“460,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones! 35 portions of Level 2 Ferocious Beast Blood, 4 portions of Level 3 Ferocious Beast Blood! Plus large amounts of Level 2 Ferocious Beast Materials and precious medicinal ingredients! A Total value exceeding 1 million Spirit Stones!”
After tallying up the gains from slaying Zhou Cheng, even Chu Mo was stunned by such terrifying wealth.
[As expected of a veteran Martial Artist! Decades of accumulation truly made one extremely wealthy!] Calming down, Chu Mo smiled.
With this wealth, it was enough to support Chu Mo’s cultivation to the Late-Stage Martial Artist Realm. He might even be able to become a Martial Master!
[I now just need to cultivate! Next up is to focus single-mindedly on cultivation, striving to quickly raise my realm and become a Martial Master! Only then can I grasp the power to control my own fate in Luyang Base!] Chu Mo silently thought.
Categorizing and storing away the Spirit Stones and beast materials, Chu Mo took out a Spirit Fruit – the Wind Spirit Fruit!
It was grown from Wind Spirit Herb!
Initially discovered by Du Jing in the outskirts of Mount Dashu, it was seized by Xu Guang. This was the very item that triggered those subsequent series of incidents.
Since Xu Guang was killed by his hand, the Wind Spirit Fruit naturally fell into Chu Mo’s possession.
“It’s said this fruit can grant insight to Martial Artists with Wind Element Talent, possibly elevating one’s talent. Perhaps I can give it a try?” Currently, Chu Mo’s Wind Element Talent was only at Low-Grade. Fully activating it could grant him nearly ten times the speed. If the Wind Element Talent could be raised to Mid-Grade, how terrifying would it be?
[Probably even veteran Martial Masters would be left in the dust!] With this in mind, Chu Mo immediately washed the Wind Spirit Fruit clean and started eating.
It was sweet and crisp. Upon entering his mouth, it transformed into a pure energy, merging into his body.
His Physique seemed to have become lighter. Vaguely, it was as if he had a closer connection to the surrounding wind.
“It’s working!” Chu Mo’s spirits lifted as he continued eating.
Before long, he had eaten more than half of the Wind Spirit Fruit.
Right at this moment, Chu Mo suddenly felt a warm current surging through his body, as if his body was being massaged by a pair of soft hands. It was extremely soothing.
Moments later, the warm current vanished. Chu Mo stretched his limbs, feeling his body had become much lighter, as if he had undergone marrow-cleansing.
Glancing at his personal info.
Target: Chu Mo Physique: High-Grade Cultivation Physique Talents: High-Grade Saber Talent, Mid-Grade Wind Element Talent, Low-Grade Lightning Element Talent |
Seeing the Wind Element Talent that had become Mid-Grade, a smile appeared on Chu Mo’s face. [As expected, it leveled up!]
“Let’s test my speed after this level up!” Although it was night, Chu Mo could not wait to try it out.
He directly opened the window, leaped out, and arrived on the street.
The streets were deserted and tranquil at this hour.
Chu Mo activated his Wind Element Talent without holding back, going all-out.
‘Boom!’ A sonic boom suddenly rang out. In an instant, Chu Mo had already crossed a hundred meters.
At that moment, Chu Mo felt he had seemingly broken through some boundary.
[I broke through the sound barrier!?] This thought instantly appeared in his mind. The speed of sound in air was 340 meters per second, and Chu Mo’s speed had surpassed even that!
After several tests, Chu Mo finally arrived at a rough figure.
“Mid-Grade Wind Element Talent increases speed by around 15 times! At full sprint, it’s close to 5 times the speed of sound! How terrifying!”
Ordinary Martial Artists could at most reach 100 meters per second. Only Martial Masters could reach supersonic speeds.
Chu Mo had heard that even Peak-Stage Martial Masters could only reach 5 to 10 times the speed of sound at their limit!
[In other words… my current speed is already comparable to Peak-Stage Martial Masters!] The result greatly encouraged Chu Mo.
In the world of martial arts, speed reigns supreme. This statement might be too much of an absolute but being fast did indeed break many impossibilities!
Take now for example.
Chu Mo was only an Early-Stage Martial Artist, but relying on him being able to move 5 times the speed of sound, he had the qualification to fight against Martial Masters without being at a disadvantage!
Of course, Chu Mo would not become arrogant and complacent because of this. Being fast only gives the qualification to not be at a disadvantage. To truly defeat a Martial Master, one still needed the strength to match. Otherwise, no matter how fast he was, if his attack could not break through the opponent’s defenses, what was the point?
[Raise my cultivation realm and grow stronger!] Chu Mo silently thought.
He took out a bottle of Level 3 Ferocious Beast Blood from his storage bag. Popping open the stopper, pure energy immediately gushed out.
The spiritual energy in Chu Mo’s body was stirred, as if yearning for something.
Without hesitation, he drank it all in one gulp.
‘Boom!’ The moment it entered, violent energy instantly rampaged inside his body.
The energy from Level 3 Ferocious Beast Blood far surpassed Level 2. Even Chu Mo felt that the blood in his body was faintly going out of control, seemingly unable to suppress it.
Not daring to delay, he immediately began using the Spiritual Energy Body Tempering Technique, slowly absorbing the violent energy in his body.
In the following days, during the day, Chu Mo would go out to the Martial Arts Building to rent a cultivation room to cultivate.
The main reason for not doing it at home was the lack of space to fully practice his techniques.
If he wasn’t careful, he would damage the furniture.
Only at night would he return early to cook for Chen Xiwei.
In the blink of an eye, over half a month passed.
This afternoon, after Chu Mo drank a portion of Level 3 Ferocious Beast Blood, he began practicing the Spiritual Energy Body Tempering Technique to absorb the energy.
Half an hour later, one cycle of the Spiritual Energy Body Tempering Technique was completed.
Chu Mo suddenly felt the energy in his body surging madly. His muscles and bones were also boiling along with it, as if being roasted by fire.
With a thought, he felt all the blood in his body being mobilized.
Every inch of his bones and muscles were stimulated, resonating together, causing Chu Mo’s body to emit continuous rumbling sounds, like thunder.
[My bones and muscles are resonating and ringing. My bone tempering is complete!] This signified Chu Mo had perfected his bone tempering and stepped into the Mid-Stage Martial Artist Realm!
“Mid-Stage Martial Artist. My bones and muscles are now resonating. I also possess the strength of fifty thousand kilograms!” Chu Mo’s eyes lit up as he moved to the strength testing machine beside the practice room.
This was an advanced strength tester that could measure up to one million kilograms of force, only equipped in High-Grade private rooms.
Standing in front, Chu Mo took a deep breath, then mobilized all his strength and threw a punch—
Boom!
A terrifying punch force was generated, causing even the void it passed to tremble and emit sharp wails. When it landed on the machine, a huge bang immediately sounded, causing the machine to violently shake.
On the very top, a string of numbers jumped out.
50021!
[Indeed 50,000 kilograms of force! Next, let’s test the effect after infusing my Lightning Element Talent into it!] Chu Mo’s eyes sharpened as he silently mobilized the lightning power in his body, then raised his fist again and fiercely smashed down.
Crackle!
Accompanied by a layer of purple electric arcs coiling around his fist, it viciously slammed into the machine.
In an instant, the machine experienced intense shaking. The previous number also rapidly soared, quickly breaking six digits.
The momentum didn’t decrease as it continued climbing.
Moments later, it finally stopped.
252891!
Over 250,000 kilograms of force!
The Low-Grade Lightning Element Talent had a 5 times power amplification, allowing him to strike with over 250,000 kilograms of force in one punch!
This already surpassed the strength of Late-Stage Martial Artists!
And this didn’t even take into account the Saber Force Chu Mo had comprehended!
“If I use Saber Force, Martial Masters might no longer be my match!”
Silavin: Guy, I know some are unhappy that I’m not using Newtons and chose kilograms to denote force. Look at it this way, that is how many grandmas he can bench press okay?
On another note, the author changed the Lightning multiplier to 4x again. I’m changing it to five times.
