Chapter 107: The Qualifications for Practicing the Dodon Ray (3k, Second Update)
Bai Cangshu had by now realized that Reincarnators possessed an advantage over Plot Characters.
That is, the 【Energy】 attribute does not distinguish the specific numerical values of the various types of energy a Reincarnator has mastered.
【Energy】 merely measures the total amount of energy a Reincarnator can command.
Most of the time, this distinction poses no problem.
But for someone like Bai Cangshu, who, due to his unique experiences and Constitution, obtained an energy threshold far exceeding what is gained through normal ability system training, a minor "bug" appears.
That is, the "Qi" that Bai Cangshu can actually command at this moment, or rather the energy flowing through his body, remains at his previous level.
But because his Soul power is overly strong, the 【Energy】 attribute has become an unfixable high value; therefore, the energy attribute is no longer a shackle limiting Bai Cangshu for the Ability Scroll 【Dodon Ray】.
He could completely achieve it before entering the next mission world.
A 【Ping】-rank Reincarnator who has mastered the Dodon Ray ability from the Dragon Ball World, heh.
Bai Cangshu pointed his fingers like a crane and struck out; intense Force erupted from his fingertips.
Pfft!
He pierced directly into the wooden dummy used for training.
The concentrated, unscattered Force penetrated through the back of the wooden dummy.
This is the level 4 Fighting Mastery; the circulation and eruption of Dark Force is quite powerful.
It is just that Bai Cangshu cannot yet do it as he wishes.
When he uses Taoist Palm or punches to attack, the Force cannot be condensed to this extent.
In the Dragon Ball World, this phenomenon actually exists; abilities fired from the fingertips, such as Dodon Ray and Special Beam Cannon, often have stronger cohesion and superior penetrating power.
In terms of the ability to break the defenses of powerful targets, their performance is superior to the Kamehameha of the same level.
Of course, supported by absolutely powerful Qi, more magnificent Qi Gong Waves like the Kamehameha have destructive power that is devastating.
Pfft!
Bai Cangshu continued to perform the dull and repetitive movements, letting the Dimension Points be consumed.
He was not in a hurry, because even if he could not improve his mastery level through his own training, he still had the chance to find a 【Fighting Mastery】 scroll in the Shanty Town to increase his level.
It is just that the latter method would not come at a low cost.
Fighting Mastery is a quite special mastery, even rarer than Fighting Mastery.
"Redeem a C-rank martial arts sparring partner."
【Spending C-rank Singularity*1, currently searching for a qualified sparring partner possessing Fighting Mastery】
【Search complete, please choose from the candidates】
With the intention of earnestly improving, Bai Cangshu invested a C-rank Singularity and immediately saw several character profiles appear on the panel.
【Candidate A: Champion Martial Artist · Suiryu】
This was a young man with a black ponytail and an upright posture. Bai Cangshu confirmed that the other party was likely that young martial artist from the 【One Punch Man World】, who was quite talented and possessed the ability to defeat Ghost-level monsters; his strength was quite formidable.
【Candidate B: Aged Martial Arts Grandmaster · Guo Haihuang】
This was an old man whose face had so many wrinkles he looked like cracked porcelain; his hair was gray and his figure was somewhat hunched, yet he was known for having mastered ultimate technique.
【Candidate C: Cruel Martial Arts Prodigy · Kiryu Setsuna】
The shirtless young man had black hair draped behind him, falling to his waist; his muscles looked as if they had been carved by a knife or axe, and the smile on his face did not make one feel warmth, only cruelty.
Seeing these three candidates, purely in terms of power level, naturally, Suiryu from the One Punch Man World was the most powerful.
The martial artists of that world also possessed terrifying, otherworldly explosive power.
But the chosen sparring target would not teach skills; this 【Training Institute】 merely summoned a puppet-like existence of the target character to spar with you.
From this perspective, Suiryu could not provide Bai Cangshu with the best results; the strength of the martial artists in the One Punch Man World is just like the strength of the martial artists in the Dragon Ball World.
What is strong is the person, not the Qi, not the technique.
Suiryu's strength is built upon absolutely powerful force and absolutely swift speed after practicing martial arts.
Being able to split a stone arena nearly a hundred meters square with a single hand blade, and kicking Saitamu hundreds of meters away with one foot, his speed was so fast that A-rank heroes could not react at all.
In Bai Cangshu's view, this kind of strength could be called numerical suppression.
Just like when he goes to fight some ordinary people.
Bai Cangshu already had an understanding of his own abnormal learning ability; compared to Suiryu, the remaining two could help him improve more.
Kiryu Setsuna, nicknamed 【Meiju】, was an expert who had mastered both the 【Two Tigers Style】 and the 【Fox Shadow Style】; sparring with such a target, Bai Cangshu would likely be able to learn more techniques from these two schools.
But...
"Select B"
【Selection complete. After Guo Haihuang appears, Dimension Point consumption will double until you actively cancel Guo Haihuang as your sparring partner (50*2/minute)】
As Bai Cangshu made his decision, the old man wearing a Tang suit and sunglasses appeared in this white training space.
Compared to Kiryu Setsuna's abilities, Bai Cangshu needed Guo Haihuang's technique more!
The Guo Haihuang replicated by the space did not have his own "personality" or "Soul"; after appearing, he walked toward Bai Cangshu step by step.
His movements had no warning, and were incomparably natural.
In Bai Cangshu's eyes, as Guo Haihuang took a step, almost only the most essential muscles were exerting force.
All other muscles in his body maintained a relaxed posture.
This is the secret to his having absolutely no flaws. Because he is always maintaining the opportunity to strike after the opponent.
It is just like two people playing rock-paper-scissors; Guo Haihuang is always in a state of having his hand raised, about to throw a punch but not yet throwing it. He is waiting for you to throw your punch first, and then, based on whether you threw rock, paper, or scissors, he chooses his counter-move.
This philosophy is basically what all physical combat schools are pursuing.
Whether it is the Jeet Kune Do of Bruce Lee in the real world, or Kuroki Gensai, the master of the ability 【Magic Spear】 that Bai Cangshu has mastered, both are experts in this field.
Once he intends to strike, he must grasp the "First of the First," striking the enemy before the enemy strikes;
Once the opponent strikes, he instantly sees through the opponent's attack and strikes first by acting second.
Bai Cangshu lowered his eyelids and walked toward Guo Haihuang as well, his muscles trembling a few times before calming down; under the state of the Transparent World, he mimicked the other's posture and stance.
The two walked until they were almost only a single step apart.
Bai Cangshu still had not struck.
Inside the Training Institute, not only does time not pass, but the life-and-death state of a Reincarnator is also stabilized; here, even if you practice abilities like self-detonation, self-mutilation, or Heavenly Demon Disintegration, you will not encounter life-threatening danger, at most consuming some extra resources.
!
Guo Haihuang raised his hand, his fist lightly clenched, and slowly extended it.
Bai Cangshu's scalp tingled slightly; that was a sense of crisis, as Guo Haihuang's slow movement contained a terrifying power.
Bai Cangshu also raised his hand, his muscles completely relaxed, and struck toward Guo Haihuang's chest.
The two arrived near each other's bodies almost simultaneously.
The next moment, Bai Cangshu's pupils constricted; he saw Guo Haihuang's heart beat slowly once, and it was this single beat that caused the muscles all over the other's body to tense and snap simultaneously.
Bang!
Bai Cangshu's chest collapsed, a terrifying force erupted on his chest in an instant, his sternum snapped immediately, blood sprayed from his mouth and nose, and Bai Cangshu himself was sent flying.
In the air, his physical condition began to recover rapidly, as if time were flowing backward; Bai Cangshu landed on his feet and slid dozens of meters across the ground.
Guo Haihuang's physical body had long passed its peak, and many muscles trained to the extreme had begun to atrophy, but the power erupted in that instant was so great that even Bai Cangshu's current Constitution could not resist it.
This is the power of technique.
So-called martial Dao is the use of technique to allow humans to exert power several times their own.
Bai Cangshu wiped the blood from his mouth and nose, lifted his feet, and walked toward Guo Haihuang again.
He also had some inkling regarding the flow and control of the other's Force.
Step, step.
The two walked toward each other, raised their hands at the same time again, and struck toward each other's chests.
Relying on his height and reach, Bai Cangshu touched Guo Haihuang a step earlier; following a "thump" of a heartbeat, Bai Cangshu's muscles tensed instantly.
Inch Force!
Within a square inch, the entire body's power was fully erupted in an instant.
Bang!
The air let out an explosive sound like a crack, and Guo Haihuang's body was instantly sent flying.
But this old man curled his knees and spun continuously in the air; Bai Cangshu saw clearly that even the bones in the other's chest had dislocated one after another, but during the rotation, the Force was dissipated, and upon landing, the other made the bones return to their positions again.
Dissipating Force!
Hoo~
Bai Cangshu exhaled a breath of turbid air like a white sword; he had also become interested in these techniques from the Baki world.
He was no longer practicing purely to master the Dodon Ray; on the contrary, Martial Dao Mastery Lv5 itself was an extremely powerful strength.
——
Song Xian sat in a luxury car he was not even used to, wearing a headset, carefully checking the surrounding environment, while whispering to his apprentice.
"How is it? Did the inspection of that Ms. Li go smoothly?"
As a heaven-chosen worker, Song Xian originally did not need to participate in this security work, but he did not expect that because the March Conglomerate was dissatisfied with the translator arranged here, the General Bureau temporarily arranged for Luoshui to be the accompanying personnel.
Song Xian was also subsequently arranged to be in the rear, responsible for the security of this inspection work.
Binhai City attached great importance to the March Conglomerate's factory inspection; if the March Conglomerate could land a production line in Binhai, it would have a quite significant promotional effect on Dongxia's chips and smart equipment.
Luoshui walked at the back of the team, looking at the indifferent posture of the tall woman in front, and also replied in a low voice.
"Master, I feel... that Ms. Li does not seem to have much interest."
Song Xian raised an eyebrow; he was actually not very concerned about this matter either. Being a Reincarnator, it was really hard to have much psychological fluctuation over things like factory arrangement plans.
Luoshui thought for a moment and added.
"Ms. Li was indeed very interested yesterday; not only did she inspect the place, but she also asked me about things like universities, snacks, and tourist attractions in Binhai City."
"But today, she seems... suddenly disappointed and has lost interest."
Song Xian frowned; he was currently quite sensitive to the location of Binhai University. After all, because the place where that card finally appeared was the block near Binhai University, many Reincarnators had appeared in Dongxia one after another.
"Ah, Ms. Li finished today's inspection and said she would consider it further..."
Luoshui followed the inspection team, hurried out of the factory area, and watched the woman with exquisite but aggressive features get into a Bentley and leave before she returned to her master's car.
"Master, that Ms. Li... I feel she is a bit strange."
Song Xian's expression had become serious by now.
"If Ms. Li asks you about Binhai University again, you must be careful and report it to me."
"No, you must tell me everything related to Ms. Li without missing a single word; this is very important and also very dangerous, understand?!"
Resuming 10,000-character updates today, there will be another chapter in the afternoon.
