Chapter 336: Bone-Piercing Blade Intent

Lu Yu pondered this in his heart and once again decisively added 360 points of Experience Value to the 【Wanzhang Shenggong】.

Following the injection of Experience Value, a familiar warm current flowed slowly through his body once more, yet other than that, no other obvious changes occurred.

Regarding this, Lu Yu did not feel surprised. In his view, if his guess was correct, that hidden characteristic would most likely only be unlocked upon reaching the Consummation realm.

Thus, Lu Yu continued to invest Experience Value, consuming another 720 points, and finally, the proficiency level of the 【Wanzhang Shenggong】 successfully rose to the Great Success realm.

But upon looking, it was still those same three characteristics as before.

Lu Yu could not help but take a deep breath, secretly pondering in his heart: "I'll stake it all on this final attempt."

Immediately after, he gritted his teeth and consumed nearly another 1,500 points of Experience Value. In an instant, a dazzling white light flashed through his mind like lightning.

He hurriedly and eagerly looked at the skill bar, only to see it displayed:

【Wanzhang Shenggong: Consummation, Characteristics: Steel Bones and Iron Muscles Level 5, Strength of One Ox Level 5, Mountain Pushing Palm Level 3, Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm Level 1】

【Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm: Active skill, consumes 10,000 points of True Qi, gathers a three-meter-high palm print, causing damage up to twenty times the practitioner's strength value; the further the distance, the lower the damage. For every level the skill increases, the True Qi consumption doubles, and the damage increases by an additional ten times.】

"Twenty times the strength value!"

Lu Yu subconsciously glanced at his own strength attribute, and a wave of ripples could not help but stir in his heart.

This meant that if he were to unleash this palm at his best state, the palm force could actually reach a magnitude of 30,000 tons!

Recalling the previous 10,000-ton power of the Mountain Pushing Palm, unless he could precisely hit the vital parts of a top-tier Elite-level Fierce Beast, at most he could only punch a large hole in it, knock it flying, and cause it heavy injury.

But this Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm was completely different; even if he failed to hit a vital part, as long as it landed, there was a high probability of killing a top-tier Elite-level Fierce Beast with one palm!

This is because compared to the Mountain Pushing Palm, the Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm adds more than just an eight-fold basic strength bonus. There is also a huge difference in the palm print.

To give an example, Lu Yu's current strength is on par with an Elite-level Fierce Beast.

An Elite-level Fierce Beast can easily punch through an entire wall with one blow, and with a single swipe of its palm, it can even overturn a small two or three-story building.

Yet Lu Yu can only punch through one wall with a single blow.

This gap in characteristics is laid out right before his eyes in a real way.

The Mountain Pushing Palm can gather True Qi into a palm print over a meter high, which already possesses strong destructive power.

But the Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm is even better; it can gather a palm print as high as three meters, about as tall as a single story of a building.

Pushing out such a massive palm print, wanting to destroy a small two or three-story building is simply an easy task.

A smile appeared on Lu Yu's face unconsciously; he knew that this palm technique was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

This characteristic is the very essence of this martial art, and one can catch a glimpse of it just from the name.

Moreover, he also keenly discovered that from the perspective of True Qi consumption, the Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm is undoubtedly more cost-effective. It only requires 10,000 points of True Qi to unleash a palm force of twenty times his strength.

Looking at the Level 4 Mountain Pushing Palm, although it can unleash a palm force of twelve times the power, the True Qi consumed is already as high as 8,000 points.

"However, with the amount of True Qi currently in my body, it seems I still can't execute this Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm?" Lu Yu could not help but shake his head with a bitter smile.

After all, his current True Qi value is only over 9,000, and it is still a little short of the 10,000 required to execute the Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm.

"Regardless, these two martial arts, which serve as prerequisites for the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, have finally been learned, and the effect is even better than I expected," Lu Yu pondered to himself.

The Thousand Elephant Divine Skill greatly enhanced his strength attribute.

And the Wanzhang Shenggong takes the Martial Artist's own strength as a foundation, increasing the power of palm techniques by several times, or even twenty times.

From this, it can be inferred that the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art derived from them will likely not only allow a Martial Artist to obtain the powerful strength of ten dragons and ten elephants, but perhaps it will also contain an overbearing and peerless palm Secret Technique!

Thinking of this, Lu Yu took a deep breath and resolutely clicked the option to complete the martial arts.

Because both of these martial arts had already reached the Consummation realm, the time required for completion was significantly shortened, taking less than three days—a full two times faster than the previous 【Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill】.

"In terms of unarmed martial arts, having this Wanzhang Shenggong is enough for now. Next, I will complete a blade martial art, and use all the remaining Experience Value to learn mental cultivation methods. Otherwise, if my True Qi doesn't go up, I won't even be able to use a single Ten Thousand Daos Divine Palm," Lu Yu muttered to himself with some helplessness.

True Qi is as important to a Martial Artist as money is to a man; without sufficient True Qi, one can be said to be unable to move an inch on the path of martial arts.

Lu Yu's gaze slowly fell upon 【Wind-Facing Blade Slash】.

This martial art is not simple; it was carefully selected and purchased from the Awakened Association for 3,000 points previously, and it is absolutely worthy of being called a top-tier martial art.

With a thought, he consumed one point of Experience Value on it. Immediately, the proficiency slowly rose by 1/40,000.

"???" Lu Yu was stunned all of a sudden, his whole person a bit dazed.

No way? Just for Entry, it requires 40,000 points of Experience Value? And this is even after a 20% discount and considering the reduction from Basic Blade Technique.

Lu Yu hesitated for a good while, but ultimately made up his mind to learn this martial art.

It's just 40,000 points of Experience Value; even after learning it, the remaining Experience Value should still be around 50,000 or 60,000 points.

Hardening his heart, he added all of the remaining 30,000-plus Experience Value at once.

In an instant, a strange feeling like never before surged into his heart like a tide.

At this moment, wherever his gaze fell, the Alloy Battle Blade placed on the table no longer seemed like a cold, dead object, but rather as if it possessed life, had breath, and was even like a living thing capable of communicating with people.

"Could this be the legendary Blade Intent?" This thought flashed through Lu Yu's heart.

Immediately after, he gave a violent start and hurriedly looked at the skill panel, only to see it displayed:

【Wind-Facing Blade Slash: Consummation, Characteristics: Bone-Piercing Blade Intent Level 1, Wind-Facing Blade Slash Level 1】

"It reached Consummation directly?" Lu Yu was truly taken aback when he saw the realm displayed behind it.

Looking at it this way, does this martial art not have an Entry stage? Either one is Not Even a Clue about it, or once comprehended, it directly reaches the Consummation realm? This is too extreme.

Lu Yu shook his head, unable to laugh or cry, and then continued to look down.

There were actually two characteristics, and the former one was precisely Blade Intent! He couldn't wait to click and view it.

【Bone-Piercing Blade Intent: When equipped with a blade-type weapon, every strike will carry a bone-piercing chill. The greater the difference in the Spirit values of both parties, the higher the effect, which can at most cause the opponent's reaction speed to decrease by one time. For every 10% the skill increases, the effect increases by an additional one time.】

【Wind-Facing Blade Slash: Consumes 10,000 points of True Qi and 1,000 points of Mental Power to unleash a five-meter-high, fierce Blade Qi. The power of the blade technique increases by ten times. The Blade Qi contains Blade Intent, which will lock onto the opponent, making it impossible for the opponent to dodge.

For every time the True Qi and Mental Power consumption increases, the blade technique's power increases by an additional ten times, with an upper limit of fifty times. For every level the skill increases, the size of the Blade Qi increases by one time.】

"So this is what Blade Intent is." Lu Yu suddenly realized, and then a wave of wild joy surged in his heart.
