Chapter 455: The Enlightenment Tree Species, the King of Metal!
Strength: 270.0 (2.4 → 25.9)
Speed: 270.0 (4.4 → 22.0)
[Physique: 269.3 → 270.0] (39.5)
Willpower: 270.0 (6.0 → 31.9)
Strength +23.5, speed +17.6, physique +40.2, intention +25.9.
The unprecedented increase saw even the lowest attribute, Speed, increase by seventeen points, while Constitution soared by forty points. If it weren't for Bai Xiao's four-dimensional attribute bottleneck, which was below Grandmaster level, his Constitution would have skyrocketed to three hundred and ten points. The other three-dimensional attributes, once they achieved a breakthrough, would also quickly reach three hundred points.
"After all, I spent nearly 50,000 experience points to upgrade the forbidden secret weapon Water and Fire Fairy Clothes, which cost me over a thousand potential points in total. Naturally, it can bring a huge boost to the four-dimensional attributes, which is about the same as I imagined..."
Bai Xiao muttered to himself and took a deep breath.
"It's a pity that it can't be reflected immediately in strength."
"You must break through the Grandmaster's threshold before you can fully realize it."
His eyes flickered slightly, his desire for the Grandmaster realm growing even stronger. While the peak sect leader was already among the world's top fighters, to truly reach that transcendental level, one had to reach the Grandmaster level. Even a world-leading power like the Tianxia Federation could count Grandmasters on the palm of one hand; that was the true pinnacle.
Bai Xiao's eyes were restrained as he glanced quietly ahead.
In the martial arts main profession panel, skill status bar, the Dragon Elephant Sutra was slowly emitting a glazed golden light, flashing continuously, as if reminding him.
That vague desire for food, crying out for food.
"The dragon's heart symbolizes meaning."
Bai Xiao did not hesitate and his mind moved.
Suddenly, the mysterious power strengthened by the dragon's heart image turned into dense and thin golden threads, which looked like thousands of tentacles of a jellyfish, and wrapped around the entire panel at an extremely fast speed.
Inside the panel, the dull grey second-rate top secret weapon, Jiaolong Swimming, was covered inch by inch. With a whoosh, the tips of the threads all took root.
“Crack!”
Jiaolongyou was suddenly pulled, and an immense dragon-elephant phantom opened its mouth wide, swallowing it whole, instantly refining it. The martial arts essence and power within were rapidly absorbed. The light on the surface of the Dragon-Elephant Sutra twisted and trembled slightly, and giant golden shadows seemed to rush out from within.
"roar!!!"
Eight golden, radiant Sky Glaze Holy Dragons circled around, revolving around White Owl like satellites orbiting the Earth. Slowly, another Sky Glaze Holy Dragon appeared, joining the rest, bringing the total to nine Holy Dragons.
Connected from beginning to end, repeating over and over again.
It interprets unimaginable domineering and powerful power.
"Nine Dragons and Sixteen Elephants."
Bai Xiao muttered to himself, feeling the surging energy and blood around him.
"But it's not enough!"
"There are currently over 400 potential points in the Dark Red Modifier. After the Martial Arts Master profession breaks through, I can gain over 500 potential points. Adding the two together, I estimate that it can reach 1,000 points. Adding in the supplement from the Martial Arts Consultant profession, I should be able to have over 1,000 potential points. I will use all of these potential points to upgrade the Dragon Elephant Secret Weapons, and then use them to strengthen the Dragon Elephant Sutra. I must spend all my savings before breaking through to the Grandmaster level..."
He took a deep breath and this thought came to his mind.
Breaking through from a peak sect master to Grandmaster is the ultimate leap, an unimaginable transformation, like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon. President Ouyang had told Bai Xiao that the stronger a peak sect master's foundation before their breakthrough, the greater their strength afterward. Therefore, he naturally sought to achieve his full potential, squeezing out every conceivable improvement, in order to achieve that ultimate ascension at the Grandmaster level. Soaring to the heavens, he crossed a terrifying distance at the Grandmaster level!
Bai Xiao believed that no one was more qualified than himself.
He mastered six forbidden secret martial arts, including a powerful assassination punch that rivaled them. Furthermore, the Dragon Elephant Scripture, one of the six forbidden martial arts, was truly extraordinary, its power constantly increasing. Since Bai Xiao mastered the Dragon Elephant Scripture, his power had more than tripled, and it was still increasing.
This kind of foundation is unprecedented and unmatched.
Once you become a Grandmaster, I'm afraid...
The white owl's pupils were as black as ink, and contained an infinite divine light.
Half an hour later.
Wuyuan Company received an order to quickly collect Dragon Elephant-related secret weapons, at least of second-rate quality. Similarly, the Dragon Elephant Martial Arts School was assigned a similar task. To this end, Guimian, responsible for the school's daily operations, announced that any secret martial arts practitioner seeking admission to the Dragon Elephant Martial Arts School who could contribute a second-rate or higher Dragon Elephant secret weapon would be directly admitted as an inner disciple and receive instruction in the Dragon Elephant martial arts. Remember, the Dragon Elephant Martial Arts School is now one of the Ten Eastern Schools, second only to the Crane Immortal Martial Arts School.
Nature has a huge appeal.
At the same time, Bai Xiao was also ready to go to the headquarters of the Martial Arts Association.
The Langya Martial Arts Collection also contained a large number of Dragon Elephant Secret Weapons. While they might not be suitable for fusion in the Heaven and Earth Furnace, they would be sufficient for the Dragon Elephant Scripture. With his contribution this time, exchanging them for several secret weapons would be a piece of cake.
…
At the same time.
Overseas, a remote deserted island, a base in the dense forest.
Underground lair.
Here, a vast lake, its surface agitated by a constant surge of water vapor. Raging waves surged, and from time to time, there were tsunamis. This space seemed to be a fusion of reality and the depths. Otherwise, a small cave couldn't contain such a vast lake, vaster than a single island.
“Tattatt…”
In a passage outside the lake, footsteps were heard.
A thin, dark-skinned old man, holding the Box of Ten Thousand Souls in his hand, appeared on a high platform on the cave wall. He gazed across several kilometers and suddenly saw a dark figure in the center of the lake, wrapped in the vast Hongze water.
The figure was blurry, extremely terrifying, and extremely majestic.
The entire lake responded to his breathing, constantly generating tides and tsunamis. His every move directly affected the changes in the surrounding environment.
Can see.
The figure consists of only the upper half of the body, and the lower half is made up of water.
Obviously, it was the remaining injuries from the arrival a few months ago.
“Swish!”
The blurry figure suddenly looked up and instantly sensed the arrival of the Underworld Sect.
"call out!"
He had an idea.
Ming Qianke was pulled several kilometers away like a phantom, standing next to a blurry figure on the undulating water surface.
"How is it going?"
A huge sound was heard, like a tidal tsunami, roaring loudly.
"Master Hongze, Master Youtian has successfully arrived."
"However, Lord Youtian's three power masks are not complete, and he is still missing a spiritual origin. As a result, when Lord Youtian descended, his spiritual will was sealed by the world, he lost his mind, and his body turned into a roulette..." Ming Qianke said as he slowly opened the box in his hand, revealing the roulette.
The roulette wheel floated out, suddenly grew larger, and rotated slightly.
The statue of Krishna above is lifelike and ferocious.
"It seems that Youtian, like me, is only halfway successful."
Hongze muttered to himself, raised his blurry face, and his eyes seemed to penetrate the deep world and the void, looking towards an extremely distant place.
"Hundreds of years have passed since we entered the void. Six people have died, three of them. Youtian and I were only halfway there, merging with the strange beings within the void and becoming the ultimate. Once separated, our realms fell. Only the Chief has truly succeeded. His power and concept have influenced the void, even giving rise to killer ghosts in this world and creating alternative cultivation paths. The strongest killer ghost should have reached the level of a half-step grandmaster. As long as a killer ghost breaks through to the grandmaster level, it means that the Chief is very close to this world and can welcome its return and completely occupy the entire world..."
"We must complete our arrival before the Machine Master!"
His mind was full of thoughts and ideas.
After a long silence, Hongze responded to Ming Qiange.
"It's okay, the seal is only temporary."
"Now that Youtian's true form has descended, his will will naturally break through the blockade. Furthermore, once I recover a bit, I can help him break free. By then, with the two of us here, no force in the entire world, aside from the forces left behind by the Machine Master, will be able to contend with the Court of Evil Ghosts..."
Ming Qianke's eyes flickered as he spoke.
"Are you talking about the mysterious Speaker of the Metal Council? The Black Sky General who single-handedly promoted the development of the mecha world over half a century ago?"
"It's a pity that I have never met him. I have only heard of him but never seen him."
The sound of water roared around, and Hongze replied.
"Then you should be thankful you didn't encounter him, or you would have died at his hands. This person must be the key to the arrival of the Machine Master, and must possess unimaginable power. And judging by the current situation in the world, the Metal Council is even more powerful than the Secret Martial Realm, which shows how close the Machine Master is to this world. Also, I heard that a type of biological armor, distinct from energy mecha, has also emerged in the past decade, with the top biological armorers almost reaching Grandmaster level? That must also be a Void Originator..."
Listen attentively for a thousand moments.
Afterwards, the specific combat situation was told to Hongze.
"We actually lost a Grandmaster?"
"That peak sect leader named Bai Xiao actually possesses so many forbidden secret weapons? He was chosen by multiple Ultimates and Origins simultaneously? These Ultimate Beings don't exclude each other? That's quite strange. Leave him alone for now..."
Hongze frowned slightly and spoke.
"Sir, the spiritual mask of Lord Youtian is in his hands."
"At the same time, he is a member of the Ferocious Bird Clan. We suspect that when you descended from the void a few months ago, you encountered the Three Pillars of Fear, which should be related to the Ferocious Bird Clan." Ming Qianke reminded after thinking for a moment.
"oh?"
Hongze's aura exploded, and an extremely terrifying force spread.
…
The other side.
Tianxia Federation, Metal Council Headquarters.
A meeting just ended.
Half an hour ago, the fighter pilot from Shengzong Group who had sent out to fight with the upgraded mecha described the entire process in detail for reference by the representatives of the major companies present.
The third seat in the Court of Evil Ghosts, Youtian’s arrival, was surprising.
However, what surprised the representatives of the major companies even more was that Lord Tianjiang, who had not appeared in the Metal Council meeting for several years, made a rare appearance.
Moreover, he was accompanied by a young man.
He has a thin figure and a pretty face, but other than that, there is nothing special about him.
When Lord Tianjiang sat in the main seat, he actually asked this reserved young man to stand aside, as if to let him show up.
Half an hour later, the meeting ended.
There were only two people left in the luxurious and empty conference hall.
"Bai, you have to learn to get used to this situation."
"The power of the Great Metal King has spread throughout this world, reaching every corner. Your appearance is proof of this, signifying that the proportion of mechanical force in the world has reached a certain level. You and I are the anchor and pillars of the Great Metal King. When the Metal King fully descends and controls the entire world, you and I will be able to return to the Hall of Perpetual Motion."
A tall figure in black, his features blurred, seemed to be somewhere between the void and reality. He stood quietly, surrounded by countless tiny spatial cracks.
"But I don't know anything."
The thin young man still looked confused, with panic in his eyes.
"I entered this world in a descending state. You, on the other hand, were reincarnated, and naturally lost all your memories. However, it doesn't matter..."
"Your power always exists."
"Those mechas obey you, don't they?"
"The incredibly hard Void Metal flows like water in your hands."
"I will help you regain your mechanical power and restore your memory step by step."
"Until the Metal King comes and destroys and transforms the world."
The figure in black and the voice were hazy, as if through a layer of glass.
"Then my brother..."
The thin young man said subconsciously.
"Bai, remember, I am your brother, your only brother!"
The voice of the black-clad figure suddenly grew louder and rumbled.
"As expected, while reincarnation won't shun the world, it does have its drawbacks. With all your memories lost, you'll inevitably become entangled with the people of this world, bound by boring things like family, friendship, and love. Bai, this won't do. How about I send someone to kill that so-called brother of yours, leaving you with nothing to worry about? That way, you can devote yourself wholeheartedly to..."
Before the black-clothed figure finished speaking, Bai Tang spoke nervously.
"No, don't do that!"
"I promise you, I'll listen to you from now on."
"Don't do anything to my relatives. I'll listen to whatever you say."
He clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white.
Ever since Bai Tang discovered his special ability to command all mechas some time ago, and was discovered by the Shengzong Group and reported to the Metal Council, he was brought before this mysterious man in black, and things started to get strange. In short, he could only obey him and not disobey.
Otherwise, the people around you will be in danger.
"Remember your mission, Shiro."
"Don't let the great King of Metal down!"
The figure in black slowly turned around and placed his right hand on Bai Tang's shoulder.
With a whoosh, the two of them disappeared in an instant.
…
The next day, early morning.
Imperial capital, headquarters of the Martial Arts Association.
Two figures are walking quietly on the winding mountain road surrounded by green trees.
One of them was wearing gray clothes and gray pants, and looked like a young man.
One of them was wearing a black and gold dragon elephant fighting suit and was tall and strong.
"President Ouyang, can you reveal in advance what the reward is?"
Bai Xiao said as he took a step forward and turned his head.
Beside him, Ouyang Ming stopped and looked at him with a half-smile.
Speak slowly.
"Hehehe, Master Bai, do you want the seeds of the Enlightenment Tea Tree?"
