Chapter 585

Each style contained many changes, almost including all the attack methods in Lin Qi's spear techniques.

"Chee!!"

"Shoo shoo!!"

The Five Styles of Golden Sharp were displayed one after another from his spear techniques, the air vibrated, constantly tearing the air, forming strong gusts of wind.

He was currently focusing on researching the Splitting Heaven Style and the Shaking Heaven Style; the Shaking Heaven Style was the venting of power, through the vibration of spear techniques, superimposing layer upon layer of impact shockwaves.

The power would only get stronger and stronger; one spear strike down was enough to shatter everything.

And the Splitting Heaven Style was also the power to pierce through everything, needing to constantly improve penetrating power during high-speed rotation.

This was different from the Golden Light Volume; after all, the Golden Light Volume pursued absolute speed; speed was power, and speed could kill the enemy.

Among the three volumes, in terms of cultivation difficulty alone, the Five Styles of Golden Sharp in the "Golden Sharp Volume" were the most difficult, involving five attack methods.

The force application of each attack method was different.

Unlike the "Golden Light Volume" and "Jin Gang Volume", where the force application methods were the same.

Or rather, they also had more force application methods, but the "World-Extinguishing Spear Canon" focused more on attacks!

Then he changed his spear techniques again; the spear techniques were displayed around his body, his body bloomed with golden light, condensing a golden protective shield.

The "Jin Gang Volume" had one force application method, exceptionally exquisite; when practiced to completion, it could almost defend against all attacks.

Like an iron prison, airtight, and even air couldn't blow in.

Lin Qi's main goal next was to focus on the "Golden Sharp Volume"

He watched battle videos for a whole day yesterday, especially Liu Ming, watching it over and over again.

He had already discovered the opponent's weakness, which was defensive power.

Although he also awakened defensive abilities, his defensive power was more than a notch worse than the other two abilities.

As long as his lethality was strong enough, it would be enough to kill Liu Ming head-on.

Now that he had a goal and pressure, the rest depended on himself.

How much he could improve within one month.

……

After knowing the power of the opponent, the Flowing Blade civilization, the geniuses of Blue Star had no choice.

Instead, they continued to invest in even crazier cultivation; for the sake of civilization, they needed to squeeze out more of their potential.

In the blink of an eye, another 25 days passed.

Martial Path Calendar 2049, August 6

The Xia Guo had reached the hottest season of the year

The Black Dragon Base was the same,

"Roar~"

"Puff~"

On the battlefield, the Disaster Beast tide had also reached its end, and one figure after another dragged their exhausted bodies, as well as their blood-stained and sweaty bodies, back to the base.

"Really tired!"

"However, today I saw Lin Qi kill the Level Nine Disaster Beast Thunder Horn Rhino!"

"In this month, this is already the 6th Level Nine Disaster Beast Lin Qi has killed!"

"Too powerful, is he still an Eighth Realm martial artist?"

"I suspect he is already a Ninth Realm martial artist, just hiding his strength, intending to participate in the Fire Seed Trial as an Eighth Realm martial artist!"

"You don't say, recently the martial artists participating in the Fire Seed Trial have been cultivating desperately, and their strength has improved a lot."

"This was impossible in the past."

A group of high-level martial artists discussed on the way back.

"Look, Lin Qi and the others are back!"

A group of people looked behind them, only to see several powerful figures walking back to the base.

Jiang Tao, wearing silver armor, also smiled after hearing the discussion:

"Lin Lin Qi Ge, everyone is discussing you!"

"Your strength is improving too fast, breaking the upper limit of Eighth Realm combat power every day!"

"Level Nine Disaster Beasts will be killed head-on; with you here, the Eighth Realm will definitely win!"

Beside him was Lin Qi, wearing Black Gold battle armor; he shook his head after hearing this:

"I'm not strong enough yet!"

He asked back: "Taozi, how are your preparations?"

Jiang Tao showed a confident smile:

"Lin Lin Qi Ge, soon, tomorrow I will be able to perform the sixth blood exchange!"

Lin Qi nodded; the time for six blood exchanges was about the same as his; with the help of a large amount of merit points from Heavenly Blade Li Qifeng, Jiang Tao's strength improved significantly.

The number of blood exchanges also constantly improved.

Other geniuses, constantly consuming so many resources, might not be able to digest them.

But Jiang Tao could digest them all.

His talent was still improving.

On the battlefield, Lin Qi had already confirmed Jiang Tao's strength; five blood exchanges were already stronger than most people at the peak of the Seventh Realm.

In terms of martial arts techniques, he also possessed Fourth Stage peak blade techniques.

One month, he improved too much.

Combat power was a large margin stronger than a month ago; heavy pressure stimulated his potential.

"See you tomorrow!"

Lin Qi waved goodbye to the conversation and Dean Liu and the others.

"Hum!"

The door of Room 206 opened, and he entered it.

Taking off the Black Gold battle armor on his body, Lin Qi looked at the battle armor with only slight wear and nodded secretly.

"Worthy of being Ninth-Stage battle armor, you get what you pay for; it's much stronger than Eighth-Stage battle armor!"

Lin Qi secretly thought that half a month ago, the Ninth-Stage battle armor and Ninth-Stage weapon were finally finished.

His combat power was significantly improved again.

Within half a month, he killed four Level Nine Disaster Beasts in a row.

Unlike the virtual world, equipment in reality was also part of strength.

Wearing Eighth-Stage equipment, and wearing Ninth-Stage equipment, the strength difference would be about 20%.

Of course, if he wore the special version of the equipment, the strength gap might reach 40-50%.

In the virtual world, everyone's equipment was the same, so naturally there was no gap.

Lin Qi entered the bathroom, finished showering, and walked out wearing a black martial arts uniform.

He sat cross-legged and opened the War Home.

【Name: Lin Qi (Black Dragon Base)】

【Realm: Eighth Realm Aperture Training】

【Merit Points: 20.25 Million】

【Base Ranking: 1】

【Xia Guo Ranking: 1】

【Blue Star Ranking: 1】

……

Now, his accumulated merit points had reached the first place on the three lists.

Becoming the strongest Eighth Realm in the entire Blue Star.

Even an Eighth Realm martial artist like Augustus didn't have as many merit points as himself.

Because he could hunt Level Nine Disaster Beasts, change into new equipment, and further improve hunting efficiency.

In a super-large Disaster Beast tide, if there were Level Nine Disaster Beasts, he could gain nearly 20 million merit points, and if not, he could still get about 10 million.

"Phew~"

Lin Qi sat cross-legged and took out a metal box from his space bracelet; opening it, inside was black Soul Marrow.

He opened it, swallowed it expressionlessly, and then began to operate "Divine Thought Thousand Threads"

"Hum!!"

A wave of coolness instantly surged into his brain; in the consciousness space, in one month, many changes had also occurred.

Mist clusters and liquid coexisted, just like a lake surface full of mist.

There was more and more liquid, and in the future, even all the mist clusters would condense into liquid.

Then the liquid would condense into a solid state, condensing into a spiritual core.

However, this step was still far away; the current spiritual power water cluster could only be counted as a stream.

"Inhale~exhale~"

Lin Qi closed his eyes, removed distracting thoughts, and let his spiritual power constantly differentiate.

His spiritual power differentiated rapidly; they were like agile snakes constantly multiplying and decomposing.

100, 200, 300, 400……

Soon the differentiation of spiritual power reached 495 strands, only 5 strands away from 500.

Under the effect of Soul Marrow, it constantly replenished power for spiritual power.

Lin Qi invested his whole heart into it, continuing to let his spiritual power differentiate.

496, 497, 498, 499!

As time passed, he finally got 499 strands.

Lin Qi felt his brain become heavy; he endured the exhaustion and discomfort, continuing to force himself to break through the limit.

"Hum!"

Until a certain moment, his brain shook, and he finally differentiated 500 strands.

Under the control of his consciousness, all the spiritual power wove into an unbreakable large net, connected to each other, spread out, and shrouded the entire martial arts room.

The changes in airflow, the constantly moving Xiao Chan, the opened ventilation system, and the gravity device in the corner.

Everything was changing; his perception became clearer, and he could feel more subtle changes.

【You consumed Soul Marrow, successfully differentiated 500 strands of "Divine Thought Thousand Threads", spiritual power significantly improved, spiritual power +300】

【Spiritual Power: 34700→35000】

……

Lin Qi slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes shot out essence, shooting straight out like a beam of light, illuminating the entire martial arts room.

Looking at the spiritual power on the panel, Lin Qi nodded secretly.

Spiritual power improved faster than he imagined, only 5,000 away from the spiritual power of the Ninth Realm.

According to his breakthrough speed, it would only take a few months to break through to 40,000 spiritual power.

Simply feeling the changes brought about by the improvement of spiritual power, the perception of the environment became clearer.

He expanded his perception, like an invisible large net, passing through the martial arts room, entering the living room, then the bedroom, covering the entire martial arts room.

Then it passed through the door, but felt a layer of obstruction; that was the room's shielding function.

Specifically used to prevent prying by high-level martial artists; he continued to spread, along the corridor, gradually reaching the entrance of the accommodation area, where countless figures were coming in and out.

Now Lin Qi could clearly feel it; at this moment, his spiritual power could already perceive 100 meters away.

However, the further the distance, the blurrier the perception; currently, it was already his limit.

He opened his eyes, nodded with satisfaction, and used his spiritual power to open the space bracelet again.

"Hum!"

The next second, another black box appeared in his hand; opening it, it revealed two items: Aperture-Opening Liquid, Ancient Blood Vine.

"Now that a month is almost over, I can take the Aperture-Opening Liquid again."

Lin Qi took out the Aperture-Opening Liquid; although the time was not yet a month, he felt that the side effects had dissipated.

He could take it again, so he opened the bottle cap and drank it in one gulp.

"Gurgle~"

Lin Qi felt the Aperture-Opening Liquid pass through his throat into his stomach, instantly starting to take effect, penetrating the stomach, and merging with the blood in his blood vessels.

In an instant, his body became scorching hot, like a furnace burning.

"Swish swish!"

The blood rolled in his body like 100-degree waste water; Lin Qi immediately mobilized Gangjin to merge into the blood, and under the guidance of spiritual power, began to impact the aperture points.

At this moment in his body, under the effect of the Aperture-Opening Liquid, 65 aperture points, 65 vortexes appeared in his perception.

Constantly absorbing source energy particles in the surrounding air, keeping the body in a state of becoming stronger at all times.

However, this speed was too slow; Lin Qi didn't have much time, and he needed to become stronger.

"Boom!!"

Heavy blood rolled, fiercely launching an impact on the 66th aperture point!

The 66th aperture point was located in the kidney; when the impact was launched, a wave of severe pain instantly came from the kidney.

This feeling was like someone punching him hard in the kidney.

It hurt so much that he broke out in a sweat.

The first impact didn't open it, so he continued to guide the blood to impact.

Impact after impact, the pain changed; this time it became a kind of cramping pain.

It reminded him of the scene where he had kidney stones in his previous life, which once made him hurt to death.

Now he experienced it again, and the pain was amplified dozens of times.

"Inhale~exhale~"

Through constant adjustment of breathing, and enduring the pain, he constantly impacted the aperture points.

"Drip!"

Sweat constantly dripped, Lin Qi gritted his teeth, making a clicking sound, and his body couldn't stop trembling.

"Boom!"

Soon, his whole body trembled, and a wave of heat surged from the kidney, flowing to all parts of the body, and power constantly surged out.

Stimulating the body cells to begin metamorphosis, and the physical fitness significantly improved.

"Phew~"

Lin Qi took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, felt ruthless in his heart, and continued to impact.

Enduring the pain, he impacted continuously.

One hour later, the 67th aperture point was successfully opened!

Two hours later, successfully opened the 68th aperture point.

Five hours later, the 69th aperture point was also successfully opened.

"Phew phew!!"

Lin Qi breathed heavily, feeling strong exhaustion, and spiritual power was consumed hugely.

"Continue, open the 70th aperture point in one go!"

Lin Qi endured the exhaustion and continued to impact the 70th aperture point.

"Boom boom boom!!"

Feeling the severe pain from the kidney, it was as if the organ was being twisted into countless fragments.

However, accompanied by waves of heat, the pain was also decreasing.

Several hours later

"Boom!"

Finally, accompanied by a violent impact, Lin Qi's whole body shook, and he felt his whole body lighten.

The invisible shackles were broken, majestic heat surged out, stimulating the entire body to begin metamorphosis.

"Phew phew!!"

The majestic source energy particles in the air were instantly sucked into the body.

Letting the cells undergo metamorphosis, and physical fitness significantly improved.

"Swish swish!!"

The blood was like viscous mercury, flowing in the body, and power also filled every corner with the blood.

70 aperture points appeared, like 70 vortexes, making his connection with heaven and earth more precise.

"Phew!"

In an instant, Lin Qi opened his eyes, releasing his whole body's power with his aura, and the invisible shockwave formed a violent storm, raging in the martial arts room.

【You consumed Aperture-Opening Liquid, successfully opened 5 aperture points, stimulated cell metamorphosis, your physical fitness significantly improved, blood value +1500】

【Your spiritual power and blood value improved, template fusion degree +0.5%】

【Blood Value: 29500→31000 (70 aperture points)】

【Template: Erlang Zhenjun · Yang Jian】

【Fusion Degree: 42%→42.5%】

……

Lin Qi slowly stood up, and the black martial arts uniform was already dried at this time.

He clenched his fists, and in an instant, his muscles bulged, his veins popped, and endless power surged from his body.

In an instant, among the 70 aperture points, majestic energy was contained, which he could mobilize at any time; he clearly felt that his power had received a terrifying improvement.

Compared to a month ago, his physical fitness had received a significant improvement again.

"Before the Fire Seed Trial, test my current physical fitness."

Lin Qi came to the fist power tester.

"Beep!"

The instrument started, the electronic screen lit up, and Lin Qi's gaze locked onto the black fist target that was as thick as a water bucket.

"Phew!"

In an instant, Lin Qi clenched his fists, and all the cells in his body were mobilized.

Muscles coordinated movement, and even the cells were under his control.

The fist seemed to be magnified countless times, turning into a giant mountain, tearing through the sky, and smashing down heavily.

"Boom!!"

The moment the fist exerted force, it broke the speed of sound. A sonic boom sounded, and a gust of wind blew in the martial arts room, blowing Lin Qi's clothes.

"Boom!!"

In an instant, Lin Qi's fist slammed into the thick fist target.

The air exploded, the fist target shook violently, and ripples were set off in the air.

"Beep!"

The electronic screen refreshed crazily, the data rose crazily, and finally stopped — "320000kg"

320,000 kg of fist power, which was 320 tons of fist power.

Lin Qi nodded after seeing this, quite satisfied.

More than a month had passed since his last test, and the fist power had risen by a full 34 tons.

"Test my full power again!"

"Boom!"

The next instant, Lin Qi's whole body erupted with golden light, strong sharpness was released, three layers of golden patterns appeared, forming a triangular geometric pattern.

His bones also radiated golden light, and terrifying power emerged.

"Chee!!"

Lin Qi swung his fist again, terrifying power roared out, golden Gangjin attached to his fist, condensing into a fist aura.

It roared out at several times the speed of sound, the air exploded, forming layers of air waves, and the air seemed to be shattered in an instant.

"Boom!!"

A deafening loud noise came from the fist target, the black fist target shook, like a fat man who had eaten too much, and would explode at any time.

"Beep!"

The data on the electronic screen rose crazily, flipping several times before stopping — "1600000kg!!"

1.6 million kg, which was 1,600 tons of fist power!

157 tons more than last time, combat power significantly improved.

Lin Qi's expression was happy; 1,600 tons of fist power, applied to spear techniques, the power would only be improved to a terrifying level!

If he fought Sun Sheng again, he was confident that he could defeat Sun Sheng more easily this time!

"Test speed again!"

Lin Qi opened the speed tester again and tested his speed.

A moment later

"Shoo~"

"Phew phew!!!"

In the midst of the storm, Lin Qi stopped his steps, and two sets of data appeared on the speed tester!

【First set: 190m/s】

【Second set: 950m/s】

Lin Qi glanced at the data and nodded; the speed increased by 10 meters per second.

It could be said that the progress was obvious; the current physical fitness was already much stronger than many Ninth Realm martial artists.

Even galaxy-level geniuses who awakened three types of abilities, their physical fitness at the peak of the Eighth Realm was about the same as his.

How could he be a genius of a higher level than a galaxy-level genius.

If his physical fitness was not as good as Liu Ming's, then he would have wasted the talent of the Erlang Zhenjun template.

He thought of the Ancient Blood Vine again; perhaps the final selection later could be used.

One month, Sun Sheng also improved; fight him again, and take the Ancient Blood Vine to let his martial arts techniques get a significant improvement.

In this way, his physical fitness and martial arts techniques would reach the limit.

He couldn't lose.

He had this confidence.

He watched videos for a month and could be sure that he could win.
