Chapter 453: 0294 Ming King Perfection, Flawless Golden Body (4k)

Dali City.

During the war, to facilitate the cultivation of Martial Artists, the military built many Gravity Rooms. By spending Battle Merit, one could train within. Because of the overwhelming demand, the limit was set to 5 hours per person in 30 times gravity, costing 1 hour per 2 Battle Merit. For Lu Chenzhou, this was a trifling matter. Over the past month, aside from his cultivation, he had also patrolled the mountains and hunted demons, amassing nearly three thousand Battle Merit.

After taking the Dragon Tendon Pill, Lu Chenzhou sat quietly for his breath regulation practice.

The "Tiger Demon Tai Sui Technique" circulated, and Tai Sui’s Evil Energy transformed into blade-like forces, continually widening and tempering his Eight Meridians. The pill’s potent effects dispersed throughout his body, completing a Grand Circulation through his meridians, finally entering the Dantian and turning into a strand of Six-colored True Qi. The whirlpool of Qi Sea True Qi engulfed it, seemingly growing stronger.

Three hours later.

Lu Chenzhou ended his Inner Strength cultivation and arrived at the Inner Scenery Land, noticing the lush green fields crisscrossed with streams and rivers that had visibly widened, their water volume also increasing.

"The effects of the Dragon Tendon Pill are really good. One circulation giving birth to a strand of True Qi, three strands each day. If I keep this up for over half a year, I could achieve ’True Qi Like a River.’ If I didn’t take the Great Medicine and relied solely on Inner Strength, it would take at least a year and a half."

So far, there are no scientific instruments to measure True Qi; Martial Artists rely on Inner Vision to observe their progress. The so-called "strand" is the smallest unit of True Qi that a Martial Artist can separate. Just by dividing all the True Qi in the Qi Sea, one can roughly estimate the total amount of True Qi at the current stage.

It had only been three months since Lu Chenzhou broke through to the Second Realm, and his total True Qi was barely 300 strands.

To achieve ’True Qi Like a River,’ one must cultivate 1,000 strands of True Qi and, after opening 180 Acupoints, allow Acupoint resonance for a minor qualitative change. Consequently, the True Qi of Middle Realm is much stronger than that of Initial Realm, and so on.

True Qi like a stream must be used sparingly. Once the End Realm stage of ’True Qi Like a River’ is reached, there will be much more abundance. With ’True Qi like Sea,’ boundless and inexhaustible, as long as the True Qi doesn’t run dry, a Martial Artist’s battle will not cease.

Lu Chenzhou stripped off his Training Clothes, baring his upper body.

"Activate ’Ming King Body’ Cross Training mode."

...

A month later.

White Mountain Town.

A small town on the edge of Hengduan Mountain.

Even though it was summer, the town was beset by howling winds. Across the valley, a horde of Snow Domain Demons shrieked, their collective sonic wave attacks piercing clouds and shattering rocks, breaking the glass windows of the townhouses from afar.

Ratatatata!

Blue-flamed machine guns created a sweeping rain of bullets, with three armored vehicles surrounding a military transport packed with civilians, moving forward along the road.

Above the swarm of Snow Domain Demons, in the high sky, there were three Second Realm Great Demons with wingspans as large as a glider. Intelligent, they directed the ordinary demons to attack as a cover, while they themselves conjured long ice pillars, each about ten feet, high in the sky.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The ice pillars fell from thousands of meters high, their descent accelerated by gravity, landing above the small town. The terrible force directly penetrated a three-story building, causing it to collapse. The armed soldiers hiding inside barely escaped relying on their agile skills.

Until now.

The soldiers Da Xia sent to the front line were at least Dark Force experts, and they also needed military exoskeletons for assistance. Without these, even with firearms, facing the nimble and versatile Great Demons would mean certain doom.

There were simply too few Martial Artists.

Ice pillars kept falling down. Since they dropped straight down, their trajectory was easy to predict. The armored vehicles fired continuously, clearing a path as they advanced.

The leader of this small squad was a female officer.

She was Zhou Ziyu, an outstanding graduate of the Emei Martial Arts University, who promoted to Martial Artist two years ago and was currently at the Middle Realm strength level. After the outbreak of the total war, she enlisted in the military.

In the western region, apart from the remote Kunlun Martial Arts University, there were only two top Martial Universities, Emei Martial Arts University and Qingcheng Martial Arts University. Over the past month, many students from these universities had returned to support their small home counties against the war on the void.

Zhou Ziyu’s hometown was here.

Frantic voices came through the intercom:

"Team leader, we can’t hold on much longer, there are three Second Realm Great Demons in the sky, our drones have been shot down, and Old Xu has been injured in battle..."

"Hold on, our reinforcements are almost here."

Zhou Ziyu, carrying a rocket launcher, kept firing into the sky.

Seeing this, the Snow Domain Demons dispersed in a flurry, hiding in the surrounding forests. They would reappear once the military’s fire weakened, clearly aiming to deplete the army’s ammunition.

"Damn demons, getting craftier by the day."

Her squad’s power was far inferior to that of the demons.

They relied solely on the firepower of the armored vehicles for suppression.

Suddenly.

A chill ran down her spine as cold air enveloped her from above and a fierce wind howled. A giant ice pillar, at least twenty feet long, plummeted from the sky, heading straight for the transport vehicle.

"Damn it!"

Zhou Ziyu fired a rocket into the sky.

The rocket hit the ice pillar accurately.

The ice pillar shattered, breaking into many smaller pieces. A middle-aged Martial Artist on the transport leapt up with his broadsword, shaking off the ice fragments one by one.

But at least half could not be intercepted.

Whoosh! A vehicle zoomed through the sky, and a burly figure leapt from it, his Training Clothes billowing out. His face was red as if a volcano on the verge of eruption!

"Tiger Hunting Eight Directions!"

The broad-shouldered man, with arms thick as water buckets and encircled by dragon and snake tattoos, threw a punch that twisted the space before him, pushing a superheated wave that melted much of the ice into water. Immediately after, he grabbed the Great Cloak on his back and flung it forward furiously!
