Chapter 237: [Golden Gangjin Transformation] (Seeking Monthly Votes)

"Hoo~"

Lin Qi held the 700-kilogram black great spear and swung it with difficulty, dancing out spear flowers, from "Meteor Spear Technique" to "Diamond Spear Technique", and finally returned to the initial "Mountain-Splitting Spear Technique".

Every move and every style, he had practiced into the instinct of his body, and he could display it like flowing water even with his eyes closed.

But his body only felt heavier and heavier, and his tendons, bones, blood, and flesh cells were constantly resisting the ubiquitous gravity.

Constantly letting his body approach the extreme state, letting the genetic instinct deep in his body be completely stimulated.

Genes underwent transformation, and unknown power was also gestating, getting closer and closer to breaking out of the cocoon.

Just a little bit!

Lin Qi felt that his premonition was very accurate; he felt that he was getting closer and closer to comprehending the

Even though his body was exhausted and in pain, he kept gritting his teeth and persisting; he knew he was just a little bit away, and once he gave up, all his previous efforts would be wasted.

Although he would still comprehend it in the future, he would definitely regret it.

"Boom!!"

After an unknown amount of time, the Golden Gangjin Tiger visualized in Lin Qi's consciousness space suddenly woke up, its towering size making its body exceptionally robust.

"Roar~"

She opened her eyes, which were like two scorching suns, and opened her blood-red maw to roar at the sky.

In an instant, an invisible aura erupted from Lin Qi's body; he trembled all over, his body undergoing a sudden transformation inside and out, his chest heaving like mountain rocks.

An invisible power seemed to be gestating, and his exhausted body suddenly became excited.

The source energy hidden in his body also oscillated, traveling through his body along specific trajectories.

"Boom!!"

So hot!

Lin Qi only felt as if his whole body had been instantly ignited by scorching flames, his body burning up.

The genes deep within his body seemed to undergo a drastic change in an instant, strands of golden light crazily traveling through his body, penetrating every corner.

Lin Qi's perception also reached its limit at this moment.

He seemed to perceive the eruption of unknown golden patterns, and a powerful force swept through his entire body like a surging tide.

Every part of his body trembled uncontrollably, his heart beating powerfully, the blood in his vessels surging and roaring like a bursting river, emitting a thunderous boom.

Qi and blood surged wildly, the surrounding airflow changed, and a continuous stream of power emerged to every part of his body.

Lin Qi's eyes seemed to bloom with terrifying golden light, his muscles swelled, and his physique became even more burly.

The texture of his body's muscles changed, with a subtle golden texture emerging and intermingling within them.

The veins on his body bulged, his skin seemed to be heating up, and a suffocating aura confronted the gravity.

"Crack, crack!"

Lin Qi clenched his fist with one hand, feeling power surging, his tendons and bones resonating together, and the 700-kilogram black great spear in his hand felt lighter.

Now he felt stronger than ever before!

One punch felt like it could shatter everything!

"Boom!!"

He suddenly threw a punch, and in an instant, a fierce wind was whipped up, condensing and compressing around his fist to form a white air wave.

Lin Qi was exhilarated!

At the same time, several messages popped up on the panel in his field of vision.

【In a seven-fold gravity environment, your body has stimulated its potential in a limit state; minor divine ability "Golden Gangjin Transformation" comprehended 100%】

【You have comprehended a minor divine ability, your body has transformed, your Qi and blood value has broken through, Qi and blood value +2】

【Your spear technique has improved in a seven-fold gravity environment, spear technique +2%】

【You have completed the training, template fusion degree +1%】

【Template: Erlang Shen · Yang Jian】

【Fusion degree: 18.6%→19.6%】

【Qi and blood value: 66.3→68.3】

【Spear technique: Stage Three 11%→Stage Three 13%】

……

Looking at the information on the panel, Lin Qi revealed a smile.

Tonight, his gains were too great.

His body technique broke through to Stage Three, his combat power increased significantly, and his template fusion degree increased by another 1% directly.

His Qi and blood value even increased by two points because he comprehended the minor divine ability, allowing him to absorb a large amount of source energy, bringing him closer to 70.

Most crucially, the most important thing was comprehending the minor divine ability 【Golden Gangjin Transformation】.

The gravity on his body began to dissipate, but the power within his body became increasingly strong.

On the panel, there was even a detailed introduction to the minor divine ability 【Golden Gangjin】.

【Golden Gangjin Transformation: A minor divine ability comprehended based on the "Golden Gangjin Tiger Evolution Method" created by the level-eight disaster beast, the Golden Gangjin Tiger.】

【Effect: Unleash Golden Gangjin Transformation to comprehensively and explosively increase physical fitness and nerve response in a short period, during which power and speed skyrocket, combat power increases significantly; duration is 1~3 minutes……】

……

Lin Qi's eyes lit up after reading the effects; he had heard Teacher Jia Hui say that when disaster beasts unleash divine abilities while fighting for their lives, their physical fitness increases explosively.

With his current physical fitness, every point of increase brings a huge boost in combat power.

Being 0.1 seconds faster might be enough to defeat an opponent and win.

"Although it can only last for 1~3 minutes, for me, it's enough to end the battle."

Lin Qi clenched his fists; practicing the "Golden Gangjin Tiger Evolution Method" gave him power and speed that surpassed martial artists of the same realm.

If he were to unleash an explosive increase, the power of his punch would definitely exceed 5000 kilograms, which means he now possesses the ability to fight across realms.

"I finally have my own trump card; even when facing geniuses from the Ten Academies who have awakened special abilities, I have the ability to contend."

"I'm determined to win the championship of this national competition!!"

Lin Qi clenched his fists, generating strong self-confidence, and the sense of urgency brought by the Ten Academies vanished.

But the next second, a strong sense of weakness surged into his heart, and his body lost all its strength as if his bone marrow had been drained.

He sat on the ground, gasping for air, sweat dripping down from his forehead.

His face turned pale, his body felt exceptionally heavy, and he didn't want to move at all.

The consumption this time was too severe; first, he challenged his limits in seven-fold gravity, and then he mastered a minor divine ability.

Lin Qi knew that unleashing a minor divine ability was not without side effects. Its side effect was that the body would become exceptionally weak and require time to recover.

He slowly walked to the side, opened the prepared functional beverage, and drank it in large gulps.

Finally, he took a tube of intermediate healing potion; he had prepared this in advance to prevent situations where physical exertion was too high.

A few minutes later, gravity room washroom.

"Swish, swish!!"

In the spacious bathroom, white steam was rising, and countless streams of hot water washed over Lin Qi's body.

He felt his physical strength had improved a lot, and the weakness in his body was also dissipating; apart from the soreness in his body, there was no major problem.

After washing up, he looked at himself in the mirror and realized that his body had indeed changed.

There wasn't much change in his physique, but he saw a shallow mark appear on his chest.

This mark looked like a triangle, and also like a pentagon; it didn't look like any pattern he recognized.

!

At the same time, along the surroundings of the mark, there were lines thinner than silk threads spreading outward.

On the surface, there were no changes, but with Lin Qi's astonishing eyesight, he still discovered them.

"My body did undergo a slight change after comprehending the minor divine ability."

Lin Qi knew this change was good.

He clenched his fists; next was preparing for the final day of the competition tomorrow.

……

Martial Path Calendar Year 2046, November 29th.

Cangqiong Six Academies, in Villa No. 01.

In the living room, Lin Qi lifted a portion of nutritional meal and ate it in large gulps.

On the table, four or five empty white lunch boxes remained.

"Phew~"

Putting down the empty lunch box, Lin Qi stood up, feeling his body beginning to become active.

"The consumption of unleashing a minor divine ability is really not small; I've taken two tubes of intermediate healing potion so far, along with a large amount of nutritional meals, and I've only recovered eighty percent."

"Such a skill really can only be used at critical moments."

He returned to the martial arts room, entered the virtual cabin directly, and logged into the scene of the National Freshman Competition.

"Brother Qi!"

In the spectator stands, Lin Qi appeared, and noisy sounds came from all directions.

After the people from the Six Academies around him saw Lin Qi come online, they greeted him one after another.

Lin Qi nodded, his gaze locked on the sky above the arena, and he saw Xu Wenji projected on time at 8:30.

"Everyone!"

"As of today, spanning four days, our National Freshman Competition has reached the seventh round."

"Today, we will use one day to decide the final champion!"

"In the seventh round, we have 68 contestants to decide 34 contestants to enter the eighth round, and at the same time, they will receive 5 million Xia currency as a bonus."

After saying this, Xu Wenji waved his hand, and a huge special-effect brown giant rock appeared in his hand.

"Bang!"

The moment the giant rock shattered, the new battle table also appeared in everyone's sight.

The seventh round of the National Freshman Competition officially began!

One hour later.

On the arena in the ruins.

"Pfft~"

Lin Qi withdrew his long spear from his opponent's heart; as fresh blood splattered, the opponent also dissipated into the air as nothingness.

【Match 34: Lin Qi (Cangqiong) wins!】

On the arena, the smart voice announced the result.

In a corner of the Cangqiong Martial Arts University spectator stands, a large number of sophomore and junior seniors appeared today.

Among them, the handsome-looking Li Qing looked at Lin Qi on the field and sighed:

"The junior brother now is really strong!"

"In a few months, I might not even be his opponent."

Wang Zhixuan beside him also nodded and said: "The junior brother now is already very close to the championship."

Li Qing said in a daze: "The championship, that is the strongest existence among a million elites of a generation."

"Last year, I only made it to the top 256 before being eliminated; the junior brother is much stronger than us."

……

In the Shanyu Martial Arts University spectator stands, Liang Yuxin brushed her silver hair and smiled:

"Fighting until now, it can basically be determined that there won't be any geniuses who have awakened special abilities participating this year."

"The championship will be decided among me, Lin Qi, and Li Hanjiang."

……

In the Minghai spectator stands, Li Hanjiang looked at Lin Qi and smiled:

"It's a pity that no geniuses from the Ten Academies are participating; it lacks a bit of excitement!"

"However, Lin Qi's strength is not bad; he is the only contestant who can pose a threat to me!"

……

In the leadership spectator stands, the audience from the three top universities was very quiet, and a few figures were even missing.

"I originally thought it would be a wonderful collision; I didn't expect that some of that group of geniuses actually participated."

"Lin Qi, Li Hanjiang, and the others are destined not to win the championship; they are all here to accompany the run," said Wu Yueze, the vice principal of the First Academy, shaking his head.

Others nodded; according to previous years, as long as a genius who has awakened a special ability participates, the championship basically has no suspense.

"At the very least, it must be a genius from our Cangqiong Martial Arts University who wins the championship," said the purple-clad woman from the Ninth Academy.

Dean Liu looked at the people in the spectator stands and sighed silently.
