Chapter 116: Lingbo Micro-Steps!

Su Ming was now at the end of his rope.

He had gone through a gauntlet of twenty floors!

His mental energy and physical strength were both extremely depleted!

In this Tower of Heavenly Silence, it was impossible to recover one's state using any food or potions.

He knew he likely couldn't win.

But Su Ming still chose to act resolutely and challenge the 20th floor!

Without trying, how could there be a miracle?

Su Ming held the Shadow Flow Longsword in his left hand and the Long Xiang Broken Sword in his right, suddenly charging up.

The Entwined Thunder Sword Art was fully activated!

Terrifying thunder light flashed.

In his right hand, he used Sword-Drawing Instant Slash.

With his proficiency at this level, he could even use Sword-Drawing Instant Slash without a scabbard.

Su Ming's figure turned into a streak of blood-red light as he charged past.

The Lava Knight shook his head slowly, sighed, and swung his giant hammer.

Clatter!

In this instant, the lava turned into a curtain, stirring up scorching heat waves.

Su Ming charged into it, feeling his whole body burning with pain, his health points dropping rapidly.

In the end, he was completely buried within it!

But in the Lava Knight's eyes, a trace of shock appeared!

Because before Su Ming was defeated, those two sword strikes had also landed on him.

Its health dropped by 50% instantly.

"Challenger, if it were next time, you would definitely be able to win against me."

It said in shock.

In its eyes, there was also a hint of admiration.

Su Ming's vision went black, and before he could respond, he was already ejected from the Tower of Heavenly Silence in the next instant.

【Stopped at the 20th floor!】

【Current Ranking: No. 1】

【Rewards are being settled...】

Su Ming was expressionless.

Rankings were like floating clouds to him.

Rewards were what mattered.

This wave of challenging the Tower of Heavenly Silence had brought him to level 19, along with a massive amount of weapon and equipment rewards and materials.

Now there were additional settlement rewards.

Finally, the reward settlement was complete.

【Myriad Clan Coins 50,000】

【Arrival Coins 100,000】

【Flowing Body Footwork (Diamond Lower-tier Movement Skill)】

Su Ming immediately sublimated the Flowing Body Footwork.

【Sublimation successful!】

【Lingbo Micro-Steps (Diamond Top-tier Movement Skill)】

【A super movement skill from before the ancient times, based on the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching, moving in specific hexagram positions, making one unpredictable, light and swift, like a leisurely stroll, yet fast to the extreme!】

It had actually upgraded directly into a diamond top-tier movement skill!

Su Ming was overjoyed.

He crushed it directly and learned it.

He did have a gold-tier movement skill, Hound Steps.

But that movement skill was not powerful enough for Su Ming.

There was a stronger one, 【God-Hiding Step】, but that was a legendary-grade footwork after all, and with his current physical and mental attributes, the consumption was too great.

Each activation would consume a massive amount of physical strength.

But this Lingbo Micro-Steps was different; he could use it multiple times in succession!

At the same time, it was a high-level movement skill that could dodge many moves.

In a chase, he could also remain invincible.

From now on, he would use Lingbo Micro-Steps for daily use.

When absolutely necessary, he would use God-Hiding Step to dodge essential attacks; that was the optimal solution.

Hound Steps could be discarded.

Skill iteration was normal.

After learning this skill, Su Ming immediately felt that his mind was filled with countless hexagram knowledge and floating visualizations of footwork flow.

Finally, he successfully mastered it.

【Lingbo Micro-Steps (Diamond Top-tier)】

【Proficiency: 0/3,000,000】

Subsequently, Su Ming left the Tower of Heavenly Silence.

He walked slowly toward the outside.

"My sword should be finished forging soon."

He muttered, walking away slowly.

At this moment, outside the tower.

People were watching Li Chenguang's results.

【Li Chenguang, cleared the eleventh floor!】

"Wow, he can still fight?"

"To be honest, Li Chenguang is a bit fierce; he broke through the tenth floor, didn't get extra rewards, yet still continued to break through two more floors before stopping. A monster!"

"His temperament is good, but when he comes out and finds that he is only second place, having been firmly surpassed by Slaughter Su Ming by several floors, his mentality will probably collapse."

【Li Chenguang... stopped at the twelfth floor!】
