Chapter 269: Chapter 257 "Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Four Seas and Eight Desolations, Demon-Slaying, Invincible Exploding Fist"! Meeting the Requirements (2/3)

Chu Feng slowly nodded without a word, but in his heart, he had decisively abandoned the idea of learning Heaven Rank Martial Techniques and Ultimate Skills.

A person knows their own affairs best.

For him, with the Attribute Panel, there were hardly any Martial Techniques that weren’t compatible.

Any Martial Technique, once enhanced through the Attribute Panel, would become perfectly suited to him by default; the Sword Qi, Fist Edge, Blade Gang, and even the Battle Qi he had gained proved this point.

That is to say, once he learns a Heaven Rank Martial Technique and masters it, he would inevitably come into contact with the Martial Dao True Meaning of others!

This trait, when learning Martial Techniques below the Earth Rank, is an advantage. It allows the full power of the Martial Techniques to be exploited, and also constructs his image as a top-tier genius.

But when it comes to Heaven Rank Martial Techniques, this trait becomes a flaw!

He didn’t know whether his own Martial Dao True Meaning would be influenced after making contact with others, nor did he know the consequences of such influence.

But even thinking with his toes, he realized that a Martial Dao True Meaning that is no longer pure is likely to be rendered useless!

If learning a Heaven Rank Ultimate Skill caused him to be unable to surpass the creator of that very skill, then he really would have nowhere to cry—

He cannot settle for just being in the Yin Yang Realm, Hunyuan Realm, or even the Dharma Aspect Realm. These could not be his final destination!

He must reach the pinnacle of Martial Arts and become a Martial God of his era!

...

Chu Feng went through the list of Martial Techniques and, with a sense of disappointment, found that there was nothing he wanted.

As for Earth Rank Martial Techniques, he wasn’t lacking any; in fact, he had so many insights from Martial Arts Experience that were hard to digest, requiring actual combat to integrate them.

He was somewhat wary of Heaven Rank ones, not wishing to be influenced by the thoughts of others, so even though many Heaven Rank Martial Techniques were tempting, he ultimately chose none.

There were no Heaven Rank Ultimate Skills.

The highest-ranked Ultimate Skills available were Upper Earth Grade, and there was only one of them, which focused on stealth and lethal one-hit tactics.

If Chu Feng were to create his own Martial Skill based on this blueprint, the resulting skill would probably not escape the outline of the blueprint and would not fit his core ability, "Law of Heaven and Earth," at all.

According to the panel’s indications, "Law of Heaven and Earth" had boundless potential, and he now didn’t know if he had even tapped into one ten-thousandth of its level.

To abandon Law of Heaven and Earth in favor of an Ultimate Skill would be like throwing away a watermelon for a sesame seed.

Zheng Bo saw the disappointment on his face and laughed, "Didn’t find what you’re looking for? Are you seeking a Heaven Rank Ultimate Skill?"

Chu Feng thought and then said, "No, I’m looking for an Earth Rank Ultimate Skill that has no True Force Attribute restriction and is not limited by the type of weapon, preferably an Upper Earth Grade one!"

Zheng Bo scratched his head and said anxiously, "I understand, you need one without the True Force Attribute restriction in order to complement your Composite Technique, right?

"But that’s a bit demanding. To enhance their power, Earth Rank Ultimate Skills generally need to be combined with specific Cultivation Techniques and weapons.

"Stand-alone Ultimate Skills may exist at the Human Rank, but it’s almost impossible to find one at the Earth Rank."

Chu Feng sighed lightly, stood up with a smile, and said, "No problem, Brother Zheng, let’s go check out the next place. If there are no suitable Martial Techniques, we can always choose something else."

Zheng Bo nodded, stood up to follow him, and then suddenly his eyes shone, he exclaimed, "Wait a moment, I’ve just remembered!

"There is an Ultimate Skill that might meet your requirements!"

"What?"

Chu Feng turned around just to see Zheng Bo busily operating the information terminal for a while, after which the list on the screen was cleared, leaving only one name—

"Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Four Seas and Eight Wastes, Demon-Slaying, Invincible Exploding Fist".

"..."

Chu Feng looked at the name of the skill, then at Zheng Bo, and slowly narrowed his eyes.

It felt like someone was playing with his feelings.

The excessively long, pompous, and cheesy name in the window was proof of that.

——What the hell is this!

What kind of good person comes up with a name like that!

Are you even serious!

"..."

Zheng Bo awkwardly smiled, almost digging a three-room apartment on the floor with his toes, and said, "Don’t look at me, I’m not joking with you, this really is a decent Ultimate Skill.

"It’s just that the name is a bit... hard to describe."

Chu Feng sat back down and asked with a laugh, "Such a distinctive name, who is the deity that submitted this Ultimate Skill?"

He was close to blurting out, "What a terrible name."

Zheng Bo touched his nose, eyes darting about, and said in a low voice, "This is an Ultimate Skill self-created by Commander Lin, and the reason he chose this name is that he tried so many other names, all of which were already taken.

"In a fit of anger, he just..."

Turns out it was submitted by Lin Zhong!

Thinking of Commander Lin’s careless personality, Chu Feng could almost see Lin Zhong scratching his head frantic for names, only to find them all taken by others.

In a moment of frustrated embarrassment, he uploaded a stinking long name and was done with it.

Realizing this, he and Zheng Bo looked at each other and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha..."

But little did they know, a certain name-challenged Deputy Commander was currently standing in front of a large terminal watching them through the surveillance, howling with laughter.

His hands were clasped behind his back, knuckles cracking with tension, his mouth sharp as a drawn sword, his entire presence emanating a black killing aura.

The surveillance room was deadly quiet, you could hear a pin drop, with a chill dangerous momentum flowing through, cold as the depth of winter.

Behind Lin Zhong, a group of people stood stiffly like quails, with eyes downcast and breath held, silently chanting in their hearts ’I didn’t see anything, I didn’t hear anything’...

They were afraid, fearing that one more glance would make them unable to suppress their laughter, which would be sensed by the spiritual power Commander Lin had already wrapped around them.

That would be deadly, right!

They would surely be beaten to death, wouldn’t they!

They stood silently, morosely thinking, ’These two, they’re going to be dragged out and quartered soon... Rest in peace, brothers.’

...

Chu Feng and Zheng Bo were laughing so hard that tears started coming out, taking several deep breaths before they could calm themselves down.

Chu Feng then asked, "So why didn’t we see this Ultimate Skill just now?"

Zheng Bo explained with a smile, "We didn’t see it before because it was categorized under the ’other’ section, because the Cultivation Technique isn’t complete. Commander Lin became impatient and stopped writing, uploading it to the system."

Chu Feng looked at him speechlessly, "Incomplete? It’s an unfinished piece!"

But as soon as he saw the labeled rank, he immediately perked up: Upper Earth Grade!

Zheng Bo said with a smile, "It’s not that it’s missing half, just missing a little bit at the end, yet it’s been rated as Upper Earth Grade, a technique of boundless potential!"

"Can it be used?" Chu Feng was skeptical.

"Of course it can. Commander Lin has already perfected most of this Ultimate Skill’s content, and it can be used as a complete Upper Earth Grade Ultimate Skill."

Zheng Bo explained, "The reason it’s said to be incomplete is that Commander Lin was unable to weave his self-understanding of Martial Dao True Meaning into it to make it evolve into a Heaven Rank Ultimate Technique.

"It’s said that Commander Lin tried incorporating the True Meaning, but the original intent of this Ultimate Skill is too grand, and without a supporting Cultivation Technique, it’s purely through harnessing the resonance of the human body’s acupoints to stimulate fighting power, hence the difficulty in integrating ’Dao’.

"Eventually, Commander Lin became impatient to continue weaving ’Dao’ and threw it into the system to fill the numbers."

Chu Feng’s spirits lifted, "So, this means the Ultimate Skill doesn’t have specific True Force Attribute requirements, and it just so happens to lack Martial Dao True Meaning?"
