Chapter 564: 282 Strength Increased, ’Mad Beast Evil Axe’ _2

The protective shield can devour, buffer, or even rebound nearby damage.

"Interesting."

"There are three layers in total."

"The first layer, the shield is thinly attached to the surface of the body."

"The second layer, three inches away from the body, within those three inches is the buffering layer."

"The third layer, six inches away from the body, which is about twenty centimeters."

"Copper Wall Iron Curtain enhancement, it’s possible to add another layer on top of the limit!"

Bai Xiao’s eyes flashed, feeling that this cultivation technique was like putting an invisible turtle shell on him. Any attacker’s offensive moves would first land on this turtle shell. Only by breaking through the shell could they attack Bai Xiao himself. Weaker opponents probably wouldn’t even have the chance to touch Bai Xiao.

"Come on, Dark Red!"

He muttered to himself, his eyes focusing sharply.

Suddenly, a flash of red light rapidly appeared in his field of vision.

[Dark Red Modifier]

[Potential Points: 43]

Bai Xiao slowly extended his right hand and grabbed a red pill the size of a fingernail cover, similar to a jelly bean, and swallowed them all. A sour and medicinal taste immediately spread throughout, even leaving behind an inerasible bitterness.

What followed was an alternating sensation of cold and heat.

Without any hesitation, he focused his attention on the personal panel.

[Skill: Blood Condensing Shield Beginner (1/200)]+

His gaze fixed, and a huge change occurred in an instant.

[Your profession ’Secret Martial Arts Expert’, experience +210!]

[Your skill ’Blood Condensing Shield’, experience +1400!]

[Skill ’Blood Condensing Shield Beginner’ advanced to ’Giant Axe Three Layers’!]

[Skill: Blood Condensing Shield Three Layers (1/1000)]

The fierce energy brought by three consecutive upgrades is astonishingly powerful.

Bai Xiao was sweating profusely, his muscles with a honey hue, showing a strange wriggling motion, like waves undulating up and down. The band of his black trousers was dampened with a dark trace, even faint white salt stains could be seen.

He felt as if there were two streams of alternating cold and hot air constantly circling around his Dantian, the power of all the pills he had swallowed. Two streams of different attributes alternately rippling over his body, causing the Qi-Blood in that area to be intensely stimulated. Bai Xiao’s body’s pores opened wide, and the strong air current could no longer be suppressed, releasing out like arrows, striking the ground inch by inch.

Gradually, the formless air became denser and heavier.

Incredibly, around his body, an invisible shield formed, about twenty centimeters away from the body, yet it felt indestructible.

"Anyone who wants to harm me..."

"Must penetrate this twenty-centimeter protective layer to have a chance."

But underneath the protective layer lies an even more despair-inducing defense of the physique. Perhaps after much suffering and using a variety of methods and moves, the enemy manages to breach Bai Xiao’s Blood Condensing Shield, only to face the second stage! What a delightful thought...

His gaze became fixed, and a rapid stream of information flashed by.

[Dark Red Modifier]

[Potential Points: 15]

Bai Xiao did not yet avert his gaze, his mind already braced for the barrage of massive experience. But he was well-prepared and quickly emerged from that state.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiao opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and spirited.

He was feeling quite hungry by now, eager to replenish his energy.

However, there was still important work to be done.

With a determined look, Bai Xiao gazed forward, focusing on his target.

[Below is the list of skills that meet the criteria for cultivation technique merging]

[Skill: Ten Fists Sword Three Layers (∞/∞)]

[Skill: Giant Axe Hand Blade Three Layers (∞/∞)]

[Skill: Black Flame Lion Heart Fist Three Layers (∞/∞)]

As his attention focused, a line of familiar words jumped out.

[Do you wish to merge cultivation techniques?]

Bai Xiao took a deep breath, unwavering in his decision.

"Merge the cultivation techniques!"

Suddenly, the entire interface lit up, and a series of characters started flashing.

A line of prompt information quickly jumped out.

[Do you wish to incorporate the passive skill ’Unprecedented Wisdom’?]

He pondered for a moment, then quickly made up his mind.

"Incorporate!"

Suddenly, the interface of the Secret Martial Arts Expert lit up. The passive skill Astonishing Wisdom, an intangible and mysterious force, gradually infused itself into the Grandmaster’s enhancement.

The three offensive Secret Martial Arts at the top emitted bright lights simultaneously.

A hazy halo formed instantly. Spinning at high speed like a grinding disc, the essence and insights from Bai Xiao’s various Cultivation Techniques in his mind were all crushed on the spot and fused together at an accelerated pace. Everything was destroyed, divided into essence and dregs; the essence gradually coalesced, bursting forth with vitality.

During this process.

He could feel that Astonishing Wisdom played a significant role.

It even caused the final form of the offensive Secret Martial Arts to mutate to some extent.

The light in his vision brightened and dimmed, and with a flash, the enhancement came to a complete halt.

Bai Xiao gazed ahead with a burning intensity in his eyes; the three Hard Skills from before had disappeared without a trace. Only one offensive Secret Martial, quietly suspended, remained.

Mad Beast Evil Axe

Turning both arms into weapons of slaughter, an evil aura so chilling, savage like a wild beast.

Bai Xiao transformed his arms into battle axes, and with each chop, there would be a close and intense mental shock, a lion’s roar bellowing by the enemy’s ears. At the same time, this Secret Martial focused on Strength, carrying an overwhelming and merciless ferocity. It constituted a dual attack of both mental and physical aspects.

This Second-class Secret Martial suited his fighting style exceptionally well.

It could be said that to a certain extent, it compensated for Bai Xiao’s somewhat deficient offensive methods. The aggressiveness of his combat was powerfully elevated.

By the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Bai Xiao slowly rose to his feet, taking a deep breath, he lifted his arms.

With a slight unleashing of Mad Beast Evil Axe, suddenly, his formidable arms turned into a black metallic sheen. A distorted aura, a clear axe silhouette emerged vividly on the surface, massive and ferocious. Especially at the connection between the handle and the blade, a lion’s head with eyes emitting a frightening red light.

An indescribable aura of slaughter lingered around.

At the Hanhai Hotel, where Bai Xiao was, the occupants of the rooms to his left, right, and even above and below, inexplicably missed a heartbeat and felt uneasy.

They looked around to investigate but found nothing.

They even thought they had seen a ghost, remaining in a state of shock and uncertainty.

Half an hour later, in the hotel bedroom.

Bai Xiao replenished his body’s nutrients, and his energy was abundant again. Holding a bottle of beverage in his hand, he sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, quietly watching the night scene outside.

After a moment of vacant gaze, the Four-dimensional Attributes finally ceased changing.

[Strength: 114.2→121.2]

[Speed: 94.5→99.6]

[Physique: 118.9→127.0]

[Will: 100.5→104.4]

Strength +7.0, Speed +5.1, Physique +8.1, Will +3.9!

The Strength attribute broke through one hundred twenty, and Physique approached one hundred thirty.

And just a bit more to break the hundred mark for Speed.

With this, Bai Xiao’s might was unprecedented. The spirit in his body was so concentrated it reached an exaggerated level, the aura he emitted could even alter the surrounding environment. With a mere thought, he could stir up winds within a dozen meters radius. These were characteristic signs of one at the Sect Leader Realm.

Clearly.

Bai Xiao’s Four-dimensional Attributes were exceedingly powerful, he was already in a crushing state among Martial Artists. After the enhancement, he ascended several levels beyond.

Could he actually stand side by side with a real sect leader?

He could feel the swelling power within his body accompanied by strong self-confidence, and the hot breath circulating with his breathing almost capable of splitting mountains and breaking stones. Bai Xiao was sure that if he encountered the Evil Ghost Face at this moment, he could easily defeat it. He wouldn’t even need to enter the Stone-dragon Transformation state, nor would he need to use the Heavenly Bird Destruction move. Just Dragon Elephant Rock and Mad Beast Evil Axe would suffice!

These two Second Rank Secret Martial Arts, which fit Bai Xiao’s fighting style perfectly, one brought a formidable defensive power, and the other had an unrestrained destructive force.

This offense and defense.

Were enough to let him dominate the Dark World Fighting Competition!

"Now, at least in terms of combat, I lack nothing!"

Bai Xiao murmured to himself, with a surging spirit in his chest.

A tremendous sense of power surged, with nowhere to vent, his hands felt unexplainably itchy.

"Bang!"

With a clench of his fist, white streams of energy exploded and flowed through the gaps between his fingers.

...

Time flew by, and a night passed.

The Eastern Dark World Fighting Competition had come to an end, and it was now the second day.

"Doo-doo-doo..."

"Hello?"

"Wuyuan Company? I’d like to submit a Secret Martial Skill."

"Yes, it’s Horizontal Training, you should know the name, it’s widely circulated among the Secret Martial World. But, mine is a bit different from the others..." Bai Xiao held the phone, a smile appearing on his face.
