Chapter 280: Chapter 276: Mysterious
Translator: 549690339 |
The clan warriors standing on the stage before his eyes embodied his impression of martial artists. They possessed several spirit art killer moves, but they lacked their own unique martial art style.
They practiced martial techniques inconsistent with their breathing exercises, most of them relying on only one secret technique, or worse, none. Their means of fighting were limited.
Isn’t this the normal state of clan warriors? Of course, this is not because clan warriors are stupid, but because the noble families of the clans have grown accustomed to readily available resources. Many have ceased their in-depth studies. The emergence of the Combined Attack Technique resulted in the nobility having impressive martial power, but this also obliterated their individual will to advance.
“Tang Luo and the Tang Family are both far too unruly!” Looking at a warrior frozen by the frosty sword intent, Ji Fu thought bitterly.
While the Han Family developed quietly under a hidden name, they naturally had a certain understanding of the world’s situation, especially the continuously rising noble families after the dramatic advancement of martial arts.
Even so-called top families mostly have a hodgepodge of gathered warriors who pose no threat to Ji Family’s warriors.
But Tang Luo’s appearance undoubtedly challenged his understanding of these established families, especially his recent analysis of western Xiling warriors, which was even more confusing.
“Second brother, with the strength shown by the Tang clan in Jianglin that night, they could have easily dominated Xiling. So why did they only take half of the city?” Ji Fu asked Xu Lao Ying, who was descending from the stage calmly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I asked my cousin the squestion.” Xu Lao Ying sat down next to Ji Fu and replied, “He said it’s because the strength of the Mi clan is close to that of the Tang clan. If they went to war, both sides would likely be severely damaged. Otherwise, the Tang clan has enough power to occupy four or five upstream and downstream cities on both sides of the Lingjiang.”
As a holy land’s son who traveled from Yuanzhou, he had the most say in the matter of strength. He heard tavern guests making exaggerated claims about city powers at each stop, forcing him to learn more than he wanted.
Based on what he saw along the journey, Tang’s immense power could have easily controlled four or five cities along the Lingjiang River.
“If the two clans are at an impasse, why doesn’t the Tang clan start afresh somewhere else, then cback to subjugate the Mi clan with newfound power?” Ji Fu was especially puzzled. In his view, a clan’s territory should match its strength since only vast land can nurture a large number of warriors. If a stalemate offers no gain, why not chose to leave?
“Neither the Tang nor Mi Clan would agree to that,” Xu Lao Ying answered, “because both clans’ ancestral lands are in Xiling.”
“Ancestral lands?” Ji Fu fell silent. If given the choice, who would want to leave their ancestral land?
Sgreat advice is easily given to others but not applicable to oneself. For instance, the Han Family could live well in hiding, but why did it insist on changing its nature, returning to Zhongzhou to reclaim its roots? Wasn’t this because Zhongzhou is the ancestral land of the Han Family?
Seeing Ji Fu’s sudden melancholy, Xu Lao Ying realized that he had said something wrong and didn’t know how to console him.
Minor Spirit Realm of Longzhou
There’s no sunrise or sunset in this Minor Spiritual Realm. All light comes from the Realm Heart Stone hanging above, illuminating the surroundings, allowing for the growth of vegetation.
Ji Ming and six warriors of the Tang Clan had been walking for three days. However, these three days had been eerily quiet. Initially, they anticipated an ambush by puppet troops once they left the grasslands. Surprisingly, just as Ji Fu predicted, they hadn’t encountered a single puppet.
This was undoubtedly bad news for everyone.
“We must split into two groups and actively search for traces of the puppets.” Ji Ming said to everyone.
Since the number of puppets in the Minor Spiritual Realm is fixed, if they don’t encounter any in the early stages, they might be surrounded deep inside the Spirit Realm, not even getting the chance to escape.
Early April
Monastery’s back mountain, Tang Luo’s place of seclusion
Even though he knew early on about the abnormalities of his body, Tang Luo never expected his abnormality to be so far-reaching.
When ten divine runes circulated in his arms, his body began to strengthen at an almost inflated speed. It was a good thing to be strong, but it was too much when his bones also becnumb, causing his body to grow taller and inflate.
The originally five-foot-tall Tang Luo had grown into a six-foot-tall robust man after half a month of continuously practicing the Undying Battle Body. Except for his handsface, there was no trace of his original body in his current muscular physique.
Words could not describe his formidable stature, his body was turned taut like a rope knot, as solid as a steel plate that would make a sound when hit.
Developed muscles lumped up on his shoulders and arms, the chiseled eight-pack abdomen symmetrical in size. His stature resembled a god.
Even though Tang Luo had always wanted to bectall, this sudden change was quite shocking. How was he supposed to explain this to his family two months later?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut his stature was only a small part of his problem. Something seemed different about his Undying Battle Body, compared to how Ji Fu described it.
A normal warrior’s muscles wouldn’t be able to handle the strain of Undying Battle Body. If it’s used continuously, it won’t strengthen the body, but rather injure the tendons. Even occasional usage can cause muscle soreness.
Yet Tang Luo was odd. His muscles did becsore, but his Undying Battle Body could continuously operate. His flesh seemed to have no limit, with the only issue being his need for massive food intake.
A piece of Top-Grade Tai Sui, half a human head in size, could support an ordinary Mortal Realm for a day. But for Tang Luo, even three meals a day felt insufficient. He had nearly finished a whole piece of Top-Grade Tai Sui, who’d believe that!
Fortunately, after growing to this size, the forging effect of the ten divine runes appeared to slow down, at least he was not growing taller and bigger anymore. Yet, Tang Luo’s strength was still increasing steadily.
And so, Tang Luo finally understood what Ji Fu meant by the forging effect of the Undying Battle Body.
The reason that Ji Fu said that a ninth-grade Undying Battle Body could forge the strength of ‘nine bulls and two tigers’ was because using 9999 points of spiritual power to urge the Undying Battle Body equalled circulating 999 spiritual power in the spiritual array. The limit of this forging effect was probably the ‘strength of nine bulls and two tigers’
But Tang Luo was a man with over 14000 points of spiritual power, which meant 1400+ spiritual power circulated in the spiritual array. This forging effect was approximately 1.5 times that of an ordinary ninth-grade Undying Battle Body warrior.
In other words, if Tang Luo’s spiritual power reserve reached 20000 points, the forging effect of his ninth-grade Undying Battle Body would exceed that of a warrior of the srealm or one possessing an eighth-grade Undying Battle Body. Because even an eighth-grade Undying Battle Body only circulates 1998 points of spiritual power in its spiritual array, whereas Tang Luo’s ninth-grade could reach 2000 points.
His strength kept increasing because of the daily intake of 34.2 spiritual power, resulting in a daily increase of spiritual power in the spiritual array. But can someone explain how he was supposed to practice his martial prowess if his strength was increasing daily!
After all, anyone would be dumbfounded if their strength changed daily. Let alone practicing prowess, a casual punch from him now could shatter the stone figures in the training field.. How was Tang Luo supposed to know if his martial prowess was correct?
