Chapter 71: Summary and Strengthening

Wu Pifu slept before waking up.

Although he was in a coma for one hundred and fifty-two days, his mental fluctuations were extremely large after waking up, almost hurting his spirit, so this sleep was another day and night.

As for food, there is no need to worry. Carbon-based nano-units can be converted into various nutrients consumed by the body. It's just that in the past, the number of carbon-based nano-units was very small and couldn't be consumed, but now there are many. Although some are wasted, it is no problem to consume them in a short time.

Now the medical station has more than two thousand one hundred carbon-based nano-units. The carbon-based nano-units consumed by Wu Pifu and Jiu Jiu in a day are only about 0.8 to 1 unit. This is because Wu Pifu's own consumption is extremely large. Otherwise, if it were an ordinary person, consuming 0.2 or 0.3 units a day would be about enough.

More than two thousand one hundred, if you don't consider future medical problems, it is enough to consume for more than two thousand one hundred days!

But Wu Pifu naturally couldn't stay in this Gaia for more than two thousand one hundred days. This is waiting to die, and this is also a loser who has completely given up.

First of all, his mind's negative backlash is still a fatal threat. During the battle with the Sravaka Body before, his mind's negative backlash rate broke through to thirty percent. At that time, he almost didn't look human, and even after barely suppressing the mind's negative backlash afterward, it almost exhausted his Sleepless Spiritual Light. Sleeping for more than a hundred days is a clear example. If it weren't for the Wang Wang Fugui mark given by Xu Shilan, he really wouldn't have been able to wake up.

So even if it is just to survive, he must continue to strengthen himself, otherwise, what awaits him can only be worse than death.

Secondly, he wants to obtain a Level Six shelter, or even a higher-level shelter. He wants to say thank you to Xu Shilan, and wants to say thank you to Amida!

And if there really is an afterlife, he... wants to go and break in!

Finally, the Unborn Mother...

It's still too early to think about so much, but Wu Pifu is definitely not a person who will give up. He is narrow-minded, and it is not an exaggeration to say he is vengeful. Having suffered such a big loss and sacrificed so much, if it was just to thwart the Unborn Mother's scheme to enter Gaia once, this grievance would be too great!

Therefore, no matter what, he will continue to walk on, strive to establish more shelters, and then become stronger, stepping into the deeper parts of the dream world!

But the more important problem now is to first absorb and summarize the harvest after the battle with the Unborn Mother, and then strive to raise his own strength to the current limit. This is the most urgent.

Because...

In the Northern Song dream world of the Mud Buddha Yaksha, one hundred and fifty-two days have passed!

Once any shelter has not been guarded for more than thirty days, it will be noticed by weirdness, monsters, nightmares, or other things. And among them, existences of Level Two Nightmare and above can come to Gaia through this shelter.

So when Wu Pifu heard that one hundred and fifty-two days had passed, his first reaction was mind negative backlash, and his second reaction was the nightmare penetration of the Mud Buddha Yaksha dream world. Simply put, he felt at that time, why was he still alive?

Even if there is Wang Wang Fugui for negative backlash, why hasn't this Baseline Reality 0.7 dream world penetrated by nightmares yet?

Could it be that some low-baseline reality great power is hiding, waiting for him to penetrate and control him?

Wu Pifu doesn't know, but he can't return to the Mud Buddha Yaksha dream world rashly. He must adjust his state to the best and integrate his strength to the best before returning.

"A total of four Huang Lian fragments."

Wu Pifu cleaned up the battlefield. The first thing he obtained was the three Huang Lian fragments that penetrated along with the Sravaka Body. Plus the one he already had, there were four Huang Lian fragments that had been judged by the Mainframe and could be used as fantasy objects.

When Wu Pifu put these four Huang Lian fragments together, the Huang Lian fragments actually all fused and condensed like liquid. Finally, he obtained a Huang Lian fragment that looked deeper in color and slightly larger in volume.

"Huang Lian fragment."

"... Since the sound escaped from %#*, the body turned into five lotuses, simulating the Heavenly Dao, Buddha Realm, Sin Prison, Void, and Human Realm, the five great foundation structures, finally forming the Vacuum Hometown. Among them, the Huang Lian is the control center of the Human Realm, possessing the great power to project the world of living beings."

"The holder will unilaterally see through the illusion above the limit of Baseline Reality 0.7, reduce the possibility of reverse detection of illusion above the limit of Baseline Reality 0.6, and be ineffective against illusion below the limit of 0.6. When held in multiples, the effect will be enhanced."

This effect is already much more powerful than the original single Huang Lian fragment. The introduction of a single piece was "The holder will unilaterally see through the illusion above the limit of Baseline Reality 0.8, and be ineffective against illusion below the limit of 0.8. When held in multiples, the effect will be enhanced." And now, not only can it unilaterally see through Baseline Reality 0.7, but it can also reduce the reverse detection of 0.6 illusion. This effect is already very powerful.

It can be said that this is the biggest harvest after the battle with the Sravaka Body.

Wu Pifu still tied the Huang Lian fragment with a rope and wore it on his neck, and then he looked at his personalized information panel.

Among them, the progress in National Martial Arts is very large. Hua Jin has reached 72.8%, and it is not far from the Great Completion of Hua Jin. But the real surprise is the Tiger Demon Art, which has reached 97.61% of Peak Perfection, leaving less than 3% to the final stage of Supreme Manifest Saint.

Wu Pifu decided to practice the Tiger Demon Art to the Supreme Manifest Saint rank. Although he couldn't be sure, he had an intuition that when the Tiger Demon Art reached the Supreme Manifest Saint rank, this technique would have a qualitative change.

At the same time, he planned to start practicing the Iron Refining Record. This set of techniques was an item obtained by Amida using the designated reward. It is the original Iron Refining Record. Before, because he was in a hurry to go to the Peace Hotel dream world, this set of techniques was not practiced. But now there is time, Wu Pifu planned to practice it to at least the initial threshold, and then consider entering the Mud Buddha Yaksha dream world. In the following time, Wu Pifu began to practice National Martial Arts Tiger Demon Art and Iron Refining Record in this Gaia.

Relying only on practice or fighting to practice the Tiger Demon Art, its progress is very slow. After several consecutive days, there was not even 0.01% improvement in a day, which made Wu Pifu very distressed.

After four or five consecutive days like this, he planned to trigger the mind's negative backlash bit by bit.

After so many battles, he also found that the fastest way to improve the Tiger Demon Art is life-and-death battles. Besides that, it is fastest when negative backlash occurs.

Sure enough, when he entered the controllable devil-entering (mind negative backlash rate ten percent), every time he practiced a set of Tiger Demon Art boxing techniques, his progress bar began to increase significantly, even increasing by about 0.5% in a day!

According to this progress, it would take at most a week or so to practice the Tiger Demon Art to the Supreme Manifest Saint rank.

In the days of practicing the Tiger Demon Art, Wu Pifu also summarized and recalled the scene of fighting the seven martial artists at the entrance of the Peace Hotel before. What gave him the deepest feeling was "Intent."

From that Brave, to the old eunuch, to Du Xinwu and Li Shuwen, these four all had Intent, and when they attacked, they gave Wu Pifu a strange feeling.

Just in terms of physical fitness, he could hang these people up and beat them. You know, there is a saying in National Martial Arts that being three points higher is boundless. He was more than three points higher than these people?

Three times higher is a conservative estimate!

But he was injured by the old eunuch first, then heavily injured by Du Xinwu and Li Shuwen. The last Sun Lutang didn't make a move, but if Sun Lutang could still maintain his martial artist sanity, I'm afraid even Gang Jin might be possible!

This Intent is too important for National Martial Arts.

Although it is not that mysterious, it is nothing more than the intention forged over a long time. But whether there is this Intent or not, the combat power that can be exerted is a qualitative change.

The feeling this battle gave Wu Pifu was that he was like a child holding a giant hammer, while martial artists like Li Shuwen were truly martial arts honed through a hundred battles.

!

"I also need to start practicing my Intent."

Wu Pifu had this realization while practicing the Tiger Demon Art.

He divided his combat power into two different parts. One is hard strength, paper strength—National Martial Arts, Human Immortal Martial Dao, and even controllable devil-entering belong to hard strength.

The second is soft strength—on-the-spot fighting, response experience, finding flaws, and mental stability, etc. All of these belong to soft strength.

And condensing his own Martial Dao Intent is also a part of strengthening soft strength, and it is very likely to be a significant strengthening of soft strength.

And there are many kinds of Intent—Fist Intent, Palm Intent, Blade Intent, Sword Intent all count as Intent. Besides that, there are Killing Intent, Mad Intent, Chivalrous Intent, or Intent of Home and Country, Intent of Revolution, Intent of Fighting. Of course, Invincible Intent is also among them.

Wu Pifu wanted to choose a kind of Intent, practice it always, remember it always, and implement it into his fists, thoughts, and actions, achieving the unity of knowledge and action. Over time, this Intent would naturally exist. And over time, as the things he did became greater and heavier, this Intent would become stronger, even enough to feed back his boxing techniques and strength. By that time, even if his Intent was not Invincible Intent, there would be no difference.

Unity of knowledge and action!

"Then... what kind of Intent should I choose?"

Wu Pifu thought about what kind of Intent he wanted while practicing the Tiger Demon Art, but for a while, he couldn't decide. Claw Intent and Palm Intent were currently most suitable for him, but he felt they didn't match his heart, so that wouldn't work, so he temporarily put it aside.

Eight days later, Wu Pifu finally finished practicing the last bit of proficiency of the Tiger Demon Art's Peak Perfection. At the moment of reaching it, the Sleepless Spiritual Light in his mind shone brightly, giving Wu Pifu a feeling of turning from virtual to real...

"Damn it!"

Wu Pifu suddenly saw a point of light emerge from his brow and stand virtually before him.

At this moment, the Sleepless Spiritual Light practiced by the Tiger Demon Art actually turned from virtual to real, becoming a light that could be seen in the material world!?
