Chapter 258: PhD (Seeking monthly votes)

Blue Star.

Villa No. 69, Blue Sea District.

'That Gua Banxian, it seems he was just a second-rate hack...'

'Crucially, he even gave me a hexagram... Isn't this courting death?'

'Now that Mu Wanlong has retreated completely and even killed Gua Banxian with his own hands, cutting off his own arm, the Mu family has nothing to say... That Rank 4 cave dwelling can at least be lived in for another hundred years.'

'Having this is enough.'

As for how Mu Wanlong's faction will decline, that has nothing to do with Fang Xing. After all, both sides are enemies.

Fang Xing stood up, and a layer of crimson gold luster suddenly appeared on his body.

Inside his body, the majestic and surging qi and blood were like the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, vast and mighty, with seventy-two evil acupoints and twelve gang meridians all roaring.

In the dantian qi sea, that 'Purple Pattern Ten Thousand Longevity Jin Dan' turned again, squeezing out a large amount of indestructible matter, allowing his physique to gain another increase.

In Fang Xing's spiritual strange power perception, this Purple Pattern Jin Dan has shrunk by another circle, like a grain of rice.

But its quality has reached an unimaginable level.

"Jin Dan eight turns... only one step away from the Great Vajra Realm."

A trace of satisfaction appeared on Fang Xing's face.

His martial arts Jin Dan foundation is thick, and he has the accumulation of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Indestructible Wei Shentong.

His cultivation in the Vajra Realm has also been smooth sailing.

He hasn't been too focused on martial arts in these few years, and hasn't bought any auxiliary cultivation items, but his progress has been rapid.

Fang Xing's intention moved, and the attribute panel appeared instantly:

【Name: Fang Xing】

【Age: 35】

【Profession: Immortal Martial Artist】

【Seventh Realm: Vajra (Eight Turns)】

【Dragon Tiger Stake: 800/800 (Grandmaster)】

【Star Martial Six Absolutes: 732/1000 (Grandmaster)】

【Dragon Elephant Vajra Indestructible Wei Shentong: 800/800 (Grandmaster)】

【Great Sun Tathagata Curse: 125/400 (Master)】

【Heavenly Mother Prestige Golden Lotus Twin Protector Book: 1/400 (Master)】

【Great Sun Tathagata Palm: 77/100 (Entry)】

【Gate of Heavens (Charging)】

In these few years, he hasn't done nothing.

At least he practiced martial arts every day, absorbing the essence of the Interstellar Martial Arts Competition and integrating it into his own martial arts.

Taking this as an opportunity, Fang Xing refined the 'Cross Breathing Method' and integrated it into the Star Martial Four Absolutes system.

Besides the 'Cross Breathing Method', there is also his own simplified version of the Tathagata Palm martial arts!

Although this set of martial arts has only three styles so far: Covering Heaven Hand, Five Finger Mountain, and Immortal Wu Yi Qi Great Handprint, it is already enough.

Or rather, after creating the 'Immortal Wu Yi Qi Great Handprint', Fang Xing knew that unless his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds again in the future, it would be difficult to achieve anything more on the simplified Tathagata Palm.

However, this set of simplified divine palms can already be regarded as a complete martial art and integrated into the Star Martial Four Absolutes.

After adding two absolute arts, the current name is 'Star Martial Six Absolutes'!

In the future, various martial arts will be integrated into it until all aspects reach the perfection realm.

By that time, it will mean that Fang Xing's martial arts have truly reached great success, and he can be a grandmaster of a generation!

'Grandmaster... is it really the limit of proficiency?'

Looking at the proficiency limit of the Star Martial Six Absolutes which was obviously raised, Fang Xing was thoughtful.

'The original grandmaster limit was 800, it actually became 1000?'

'This change started after integrating the Cross Breathing Method and the simplified divine palm... The proficiency limit of the Star Martial Six Absolutes is two hundred more than the original Star Martial Four Absolutes...'

'Accompanied by adding martial arts in the future, this limit might continue to be broken...'

'Perhaps... after the proficiency of the Star Martial Six Absolutes is full, it will enter a brand new realm?'

'What is that called? "Great Grandmaster"?'

'However, these are all guesses, and might not necessarily succeed.'

He looked at the last line and sighed again.

Although the Gate of Heavens devoured some sacrificial vessels of the Gate Sect, it didn't undergo any too obvious changes.

It seems... these are just a drop in the bucket.

"Fortunately, I live long enough, I can always wait for that day..."

Fang Xing looked at his eight-turn golden body and fell into deep thought.

Time flies, he has been a graduate student for half the time now, and Song Jingang and others have already graduated.

As for those high school classmates?

It's possible some have already retired.

"In the end, I'm still a tender graduate student..."

Fang Xing circulated the Jin Dan, and the golden light on his body became much dimmer.

After using the characteristics of his 【Immortal Martial Artist】 to convert half of his qi and blood into magic power, he now looks like an ordinary martial artist who has just entered the Vajra Realm, and his foundation doesn't even look that good.

'Magic power is appearing for the first time in the main universe, so naturally there are no targeted instruments and detection methods...'

'Using this method to hide one's cultivation is actually quite useful.'

Fang Xing put on a nano-suit and came to the villa's backyard.

A private spaceship had been waiting for a long time.

"Master, Xiao Lan is at your service."

The spaceship cabin door opened automatically, and a cute female voice sounded.

"Let's go, to Blue Star University!"

Fang Xing walked into the private spaceship, and a fluorescent light shot into the sky immediately.

Not long after, he arrived at the landing pad of Blue Star University.

"It's actually a private spaceship?"

"So amazing, it must be some big tycoon, right?"

"No, look, he's so young, maybe he's a second-generation tycoon..."

A few years passed, and batches of students changed in Blue Star University.

Some of them looked at Fang Xing's spaceship landing with envious eyes.

'Even if it's the number one in the universe, there is one every year in the college entrance examination... anything that is too common is definitely not valuable.'

'Even that champion "Blue Stone", known as the number one combat power in the Sixth Realm... after being popular for a few years, didn't he also fade away?'

Fang Xing has no interest in showing off.

He carried his hands behind his back, a golden sun appeared behind him, making his whole person look like a golden rainbow, and he arrived at a cultivation room.

"It's actually an expert of the Martial Arts Jin Dan!?"

Those freshmen in their freshman and sophomore years saw this scene and couldn't help but open their mouths wide.

Inside the cultivation room.

An old man in a Zhongshan suit looked at Fang Xing with a gentle expression: "Not bad, broke through to the Vajra Realm?"

He is Fang Xing's graduate supervisor, Wu Sheng Nie Ying.

"Yes, supervisor."

Fang Xing bowed slightly.

Speaking of which, this was the first time he had met this supervisor in reality.

"Being able to break through to the Vajra Realm is not bad..."

Nie Ying smiled, looking very calm and relaxed.

Because he could see that Fang Xing's foundation was somewhat floating, looking like a low-turn golden body.

If one has deep accumulation and sufficient preparation during the Martial Arts Jin Dan period, rushing to the third or fourth turn, or even the sixth or seventh turn of the Jin Dan in one go, is a true martial arts genius.

"I have to thank the supervisor for introducing those project groups to me, especially Teacher Gu... gave me a lot of help."

Fang Xing habitually said a few words of humility: "Besides that, the Interstellar Martial Arts Competition also gave me a lot of inspiration and resources."

"Hmm... although that's the case, being able to break through to the Vajra Realm is also very good."

Nie Ying said: "Are you prepared to continue reading for a PhD?"

Fang Xing smiled: "Exactly... I don't know if the teacher is willing to continue bringing this student?"

The academic system of the main universe is somewhat different. As the vice-principal, Nie Ying has the qualification to bring PhD students.

For the other party, graduate students are equivalent to registered disciples.

PhD students are formal disciples.

"Being able to break through to the Vajra Realm during the graduate period, the aptitude and comprehension are not bad..." Nie Ying said: "Although breaking through to the Vajra Realm is a bit anxious, the determination of us martial artists to make decisive decisions and overcome thorns is also very important... Forget it, I will continue to teach you. Your martial arts already have their own path, and you can constantly fill it in later. It just happens to save me a lot of trouble."

"Thank you, supervisor." A smile appeared on Fang Xing's face.

"After the Vajra Realm, it is the Wu Sheng. You have practiced the Dragon Elephant Vajra Indestructible Wei Shentong, and the golden body has a potential of at least seven turns... My expectation for you is to practice at least an eight-turn golden body before breaking through to Wu Sheng... As for the Great Vajra Realm and the Vajra Body without Leak, don't force it..."

Nie Ying said seriously: "Also, PhD students are different from graduate students. You can open projects independently... and conduct practical research. Of course, the most critical thing... is that you can plan for the 'mecha' in the future."

"Mecha?"

A look of interest appeared on Fang Xing's face.

"Below Wu Sheng, they are all standard mechas. You can choose suitable modules and assemble them..."

Nie Ying said seriously: "After Wu Sheng, mechas are all tailor-made, costing a huge amount... At the same time, martial artists are ultimately different professions from mecha pilots. We cannot practice 'Light of the Soul', so there are special methods to manipulate mechas. These must be trained in advance... Otherwise, on the battlefield, even with mecha amplification, it is very difficult for Eighth Realm combat power to break through to the Ninth Realm..."

Fang Xing had an expression of being taught.

"There are many types of mechas. For example, the Wu Sheng of our Blue Star University is more suitable for the 'Great Sun Series Model', and the armor martial arts equipped with it match the Tathagata Palm the best..."

"This is distinguished from the cultivation system... If distinguished from the person manipulating it, it can be divided into 'Single-body Flow' and 'Group-machine Flow'... that is, the difference between one person driving a mecha and a group of people driving a mecha..."

"If divided by appearance, there are humanoid mechas, beast-shaped mechas, etc..."

"The above are all in the category of technological mechas. Besides that, there are 'biological mechas' and even 'psionic mechas' built using special materials..."

Nie Ying introduced a little and finally summarized: "The one that suits you is the best... But how to know if it suits you? You can only rely on yourself to contact and try... This is a big project. If you have the heart of a Wu Sheng, you must start preparing now."

'Sure enough... mecha pilot is the biological child profession of the Blue Star Federation, and there are so many inside stories?'

Fang Xing complained in his heart, but his face showed an expression of listening carefully: "I understand."

"A good mecha will often accompany us martial artists for a lifetime... If it is a technological mecha, it also requires a large amount of logistics and maintenance team support..."

Nie Ying seemed to think of some unbearable past events, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Alright... when you are in the Vajra Realm, it is best to seek external assignments, collect resources and establish a relationship network, and form a professional mecha team that serves yourself... Besides that, this secret material must also be learned."

Fang Xing's Xiao Lan immediately reminded him that he had received a secret manual.

"A true mecha pilot uses 'Light of the Soul' to manipulate the mecha... We martial artists don't have Light of the Soul, so we take a different path and drive the mecha with 'Will Secret Runes'... You must know that any manual action is far inferior to the speed of the operation of the soul and will..."

Nie Ying solemnly exhorted: "A martial artist without a mecha is not a powerful martial artist. You must be proficient in this volume of 'Will Secret Runes'..."
