Translator: 549690339 I
As spiritual power increases and the body becomes more spiritual, the emotional part of a human body will diminish, leaving only the purest form of rationality. As such, spowerful individuals who have reached the King Realm and are already somewhat extreme, begin to regard themselves as gods, something that the two Saint-level individuals are loathe to see.
Whether it’s Saint Han’s belief in equality for all or Xu Sheng’s belief in empowering individuals, though their starting points may differ, they fundamentally aim to remind those equipped with formidable martial power that they are no different from ordinary people.
However, the differing methods employed by Saint Han and Xu Sheng have led to varying outcomes, which when heard, left Ji Fu with a unique aftertaste.
-Let’s see. I too wish to see how the sacred land operates now.” Ji Fu said, his eyes reflecting an intricate mix of emotions.
Elated, Elder Xu turned his gaze towards Tang Luo, planning to strike while the iron was hot and impress him with his brilliance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I’ve seen it before.” Tang Luo curtly refused.
“Eh- Hey! Don’t be such a wet blanket.” Elder Xu waved his hands in quick succession, hoping to further persuade Tang Luo.
However, Tang Luo, who had already observed a dueling platform, wasn’t about to waste his tagain, especially at such a crucial juncture in his martial journey.
“Nobody in Xiling can match you. It doesn’t feel great watching my fellow villagers get beaten.” Tang Luo flattered him, trying to ward off Elder Xu’s invitation.
“Oh my—” Elder Xu, patting his head, responded with laughter, “Don’t be too modest. Once you train to possess an Undying Battle Body, you’ll surely be able to matchin battle.”
After their business discussion, Tang Luo bid the duo farewell and set off for the Martial Hall.
Through the days of sculpting his martial arts style, he discovered a fact that deeply frustrated him: the impressing technique he painstakingly researched could not be utilized in combat. Specifically, due to the peculiarities of the Undying Battle Body, his previous path in the Spirit Art aspect is no longer viable.
In his initial ‘Power-up Plan 1.0’, the structure of his strength was as follows:
Utilize the Star Pavilion to rapidly increase spiritual power, store ample spiritual energy for breakthroughs. In essence, after the successful research of the Concealment Technique, his aim was merely to grow insidiously whilst concurrently studying Spirit Arts.
In this martial arts system, the primary weapons of offense revolve around combining Spirit Arts with a superior realm, disregarding all flashy preliminary stages and brewing times, to defeat enemies swiftly with sheer power.
However, the peculiarities of the Undying Battle Body training requires him to make a difficult choice. If he wishes to practice the Undying Battle Body, then his previous 1.0 martial arts plan would be entirely invalidated.
The Undying Body, when operating, automatically extracts a percentage of one’s spiritual power. Even if Tang Luo could only cultivate to the second-rank Undying Body, it would require eighty percent of his spiritual power. With his current spiritual power of 14166.6, what sort of damage could he inflict with just the remaining 28333 spiritual power?
Putting it bluntly, this level of spiritual power wouldn’t even allow a complete set of Triple Impression to be released. When facing opponents like Elder Xu or Ji Fu, the potency of a single impression could only tickle them.
This remains true even for the second rank. If Tang Luo could cultivate the Undying Battle Body to the first rank, the remaining spiritual power would beceven more irrelevant.
Consequently, Tang Luo decided to abandon all previous tailored methods, and dedicate himself to developing a new power-up plan, the current 2.0 edition.
In the 2.0 edition, Tang Luo would abandon all Spirit Arts and focus on an immense physical cultivation. Burst, Spirit Attachment, and Soul Ignition secret arts would all becuseless. The only secret arts he would choose in the future are those that complement physical strength, accelerate speed, enhance flexibility, and regenerate injuries.
All secret arts relating to spiritual power shall be abolished because of simple logic. Since the Undying Body can withstand damage based on its current spiritual power, Tang Luo decided to retain all of his spiritual power from now on. With the acceleration prowess of the Star Core, although it remains uncertain whether he can emerge as the world’s top cultivator, becoming the world’s strongest shield shouldn’t be an issue.
Tang Luo has always adhered to one simple principle, either strengthen his offense or boost his defense. Attempting to excel in both would merely result in a mediocre martial artist.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA balanced martial artist would be applauded for a flawless performance when battling against weaker opponents. However, when confronted with adversaries of equal level, they would falter.
Originally, Tang Luo believed his constitution, which did not require recovery of qi, was particularly suitable for offense. Yet, after observing the Undying Battle Body, he realized that defense was indeed the path he should specialize in.
Ordinarily, the spiritual power in one’s dantian can only accumulate to a certain limit, for instance, the Mortal Realm limit is 9999 points. Even with a second-rank Undying Battle Body, the spiritual protection provided would only be 7000 points, a damage level that a standard sect could break through, let alone Elder Xu. Although it would not harm the physical body strengthened by the Undying Body, it shows the limitations of ordinary people cultivating the Undying Battle Body.
However, Tang Luo was different. His spiritual power was locked within his dantian by the Star Core, meaning that his spiritual power at the Mortal Realm could reach 29998 points.
Elder Xu’s current most powerful attack, ‘Sword Fusion,’ combines three spiritual swords into a colossal spiritual sword. The damage level of this massive spiritual sword is approximately 20000 points. This means that even with a second-rank Undying Battle Body, Tang Luo only needs his spiritual power to accumulate to 25000 points in order to be immune to this Mortal Realm single-person fusion technique of the Xu Clan.
This tremendous compatibility is why Tang Luo is willing to abandon Power-up Plan 1.0, even if it means he will beca close-combatant martial artist in the future.
However, for Tang Luo, the initial years of Power-up Plan 2.0 are unbearable. He had previously never taken fancy to physical combative skills, engrossed in maximizing output, completely devoted to researching how to bombard enemies with spiritual power, leaving his knowledge of physical cultivation techniques practically nonexistent.
Even though the Tongtian Domination Scroll of the Tang Clan is a set of expansive and aggressive palm techniques, Tang Luo stood out due to his focus on Space Splitting Palm Force, disregarding the close combat palm techniques. Practices such as Zen Oscillations, Hidden Power, and Explicit Power seemed unimportant in his previous viewpoint, hence he didn’t cultivate any of them.
Not only does he need to catch-up on all of them now, but he also must practice weapon handling. This packed his schedule to the brim. In terms of physical cultivation practices, Tang Luo could be said to have above-average talent. Even when he dedicates himself to these pure physical strength practices, he still feels that progress is slow, especially comparing to his talent in understanding Spirit Arts, any speed resembles that of a crawling turtle.
So, to progress faster, Tang Luo was heading to the Martial Hall this tfor a handover of responsibilities.
He intends to hand over all matters related to impression technique research to Tang Guangyu, allowing him to focus entirely on the study of physical cultivation!
