Chapter 121 Level 9 and the Surge of Killing Intent
[Gaining combat experience and developing martial arts talent]
[You have gained attribute growth—Intelligence +1, Perception +1]
[You have honed your skills in battle, rising from the ashes, and your understanding of martial arts has deepened!]
Weapon mastery level increased, currently at LV30! Bonus damage increased!
Your fist and sword skills have improved significantly.
[Basic fist techniques/basic swordsmanship have achieved a breakthrough, advancing to mastery of fist techniques/swordsmanship!]
[Mastery of fist techniques +9, Mastery of swordsmanship +1]
[Related damage +58%/42%, true damage increased by an additional 20%]
[You have unlocked new skill effects, currently merging and combining them]
You have unlocked a new skill: Mind at Will
Your perception range has increased by 50%!
You can clearly sense the enemy's attack intentions (including sword strike initiation, spell casting animation, and the trajectory of hidden weapons).
This effect triggers 100% of the time against enemies of the same or lower level, and still has a chance to take effect against enemies of higher level.
You have accomplished a great feat related to killing gods.
[Gain 3 skill points and 1 free attribute point]
[Kill Data Titan Prototype, Skill Points +3]
[Slay Typhon (weak divinity), Skill Points +7]
Within the world of echoes, Lu Qingfeng sat cross-legged, carefully comprehending the breakthroughs in his fist and sword techniques.
The blood and qi throughout his body surged like the tides, resonating with the gentle energy of the Kunlun earth veins he had connected with, marking yet another breakthrough, neither too big nor too small!
"Intelligence and perception each increased by 1 point — it seems the battle with divine units has a significant tempering effect on the mental level. It must be combined with my extraordinary wisdom to have such a powerful training effect!"
Free attribute points will remain for now, but will not be discussed further.
Thirteen skill points are enough to take his core abilities to the next level.
He first looked at the newly unlocked specialization, "Mind Follows the Heart."
"Perception-based abilities—can we add them with skill points? Come on, let me see!"
Lu Qingfeng focused his mind on [Mind Follows Heart] and attempted to allocate skill points.
[Warning: This specialization is a talent-derived ability and cannot be directly improved with skill points!]
You need to hone your skills in real combat or advance through special resources!
"really."
Lu Qingfeng was not surprised and instead browsed other skills that could be improved.
[Battle Spirit LV4]: The current effect is excellent, but it requires 8 skill points to upgrade to LV5, which is too much.
[Armor Penetration Power LV4]: The armor penetration and corrosion effects are sufficient to deal with most enemies, so there is no need to enhance them for now.
[Blood Moon Territory LV10]: Still not cost-effective.
[Earthly Fiend Body LV5]: The cost-effectiveness has begun to decline, and the benefits of further upgrades are limited.
After looking around, Lu Qingfeng realized that his current skills either didn't provide timely feedback or weren't cost-effective. Could it be that these 13 skill points were going to be wasted?
Without exchanging his opinion, his gaze finally fell upon the [Feast], where, as usual, the ability that could not be improved was actually emitting a faint glow that suggested it could be enhanced.
-
Lu Qingfeng tried injecting a little into it and waited expectantly for a long time, but in the end there was no movement. However, the light that could be improved was still there, so he injected 2 more points until the prompt that could be improved disappeared.
Why don't I feel anything at all?
You dare to mess with me?
The feast has reached its current limit; further advanced options will be available during the second breakthrough.
Oh, I misunderstood you. It turns out I was the one who dragged you down.
Lu Qingfeng coughed twice to shift his embarrassment. There was nothing he could do; the monsters he had encountered recently were either robots or divine beings, making them completely unappetizing. He could only try to break through in the next dungeon.
So what should we do with the remaining 10 skill points?
After scanning and considering for a long time, his gaze finally settled on two newly advanced passive abilities: [Mastery of Fist Techniques] and [Mastery of Swordsmanship].
These two abilities stem from breakthroughs in basic martial arts and enjoy the highest damage-increasing bonuses. Why not add some points to them and try it out? You can enjoy the bonus range of level 10.
Since we're already here, let's order and go!
With a slight thought, Lu Qingfeng allocated 1 skill point to [Mastery of Fist Techniques] and the remaining 9 points to [Mastery of Sword Techniques].
[Mastery of Fist Techniques LV9 → LV10 (Skill Points Required: 1)]
[Sword Mastery LV1 → LV10 (Skill Points Required: 9)]
Skill Points: 10 → 0
In an instant, a vast amount of martial arts insights flooded into his mind like a torrent!
The five elements of boxing—beng, zhuan, pie, pao, and heng—are integrated and interconnected!
The five sword techniques of thrusting, parrying, slashing, blocking, and defending give rise to thirteen variations.
So that's how adding skill points improves your character —
Furthermore, the key point is that the methods of channeling energy in swordsmanship and fist techniques have begun to merge. When punching, one can conceal the energy of the sword, and when wielding the sword, one can also contain the energy of the fist. This integrates offense and defense, making it unpredictable and difficult to anticipate.
[Gaining insights into the fusion of martial arts techniques —]
You have mastered a special state: Unity of Fist and Sword
[Effect: When using fist techniques, some of the penetration and range characteristics of sword techniques can be added. When using sword techniques, the power and control of fist techniques can be combined. The smoothness of switching between the two is greatly improved, and the power of combo skills is increased by 20%.]
Lu Qingfeng slowly opened his eyes, his right hand loosely clenched into a fist, his left hand with fingers pointing like a sword, the two blending into one.
"Not bad," he said, dispersing his qi and blood, feeling the more harmonious power system within his body. "Next—it's time to upgrade."
On the panel, the experience pool values are astonishing:
Experience Points: 10,251,795
[Experience required to level up: 6,500,000 (Experience penalty 8761%!)]
[Should I upgrade my job level?]
Yes!
[Martial Artist Level Increased: 8 → 9!]
[Experience Points Consumed: 1,800,000]
[Remaining Experience Points: 60,007,833]
Lu Qingfeng once again clearly felt that his level of life was undergoing some kind of fundamental leap—
You have entered the "Intermediate Extraordinary Level" realm!
Your life essence has undergone its first profound purification!
[Maximum Health permanently increased by 40%! Maximum Stamina permanently increased by 30%!]
All resistances (physical/energy/abnormal) receive a moderate boost!
[Skill Tree Evolving — Based on your combat style, you have gained new abilities!]
【Killing Intent Wave (Extraordinary Specialty)】
【Effect:】
Passive - Killing Intent Perception:
You can sense all malice, murderous intent, and hostility directed at you within a kilometer radius, and pinpoint their source. This ability is extremely effective against stealth and stealth-based abilities.
[Active - Killing Intent Shock: Unleash a concentrated killing intent shockwave, causing your enemy to undergo three checks. These checks are based on your willpower, with a power rating of +3, +0, and -3. If you fail the first two checks, all your attributes are reduced by 10%/20%. If you fail all three checks, you are declared dead!]
[Killing Intent Conversion: Each kill of an elite or higher-ranking enemy accumulates 1 stack of [Killing Intent Mark]]
Consuming a mark can temporarily increase the damage of the next attack (+5% per stack, up to 10 stacks), or convert it into a small amount of health/stamina recovery. [Description: To stop killing with killing, to sustain war with war, your path has been stained with bloody glory]
P.S.: This young man exudes a strong murderous aura—an anonymous Asura cultivator passing by.
