Clicking the exclamation mark next to the combat power value will show an official combat power value comparison table.
An average peak martial artist's combat power is around 5000 points.
The mountains and seas are in different realms; the drop from 7000 points to [a certain point] is within the normal range.
Two realms, one between mountains and seas—
Three realms of mountains and seas, -.
Mountains and seas, four layers of heaven, -.
The five heavens of mountains and seas, —.
The six heavens of mountains and seas, —.
Seven layers of mountains and seas, —.
The eight heavens of mountains and seas, —.
Nine heavens and nine seas—? ? ? .
With a combat power of 70,000 to 80,000, according to the combat power comparison table provided by the testing system, this has already entered the range that only ordinary martial artists at the ninth level of the Mountain and Sea Realm can reach.
Shen Qian noticed a detail in the comparison table: the upper limit of the Nine Heavens of Mountains and Seas was marked with a series of question marks.
In a sense, either the testing system didn't collect enough data, so it dared not speculate on the limits of Shan Hai's combat power, or... the ceiling of Shan Hai's combat power is inherently undefinable.
After witnessing the extraordinary abilities of Jiang Huan and Tantai Qin that day, when he returned to Shanghai that evening, he had a serious conversation with his two senior brothers over drinks at the hotel.
It must be said that after talking with Shi Dingyan and Ling Xiao, Shen Qian had a completely different understanding of the Mountain and Sea Realm and fully understood why he was more accustomed to measuring martial artists above the Mountain and Sea Realm by their combat power.
“Long ago, the various worlds were more accustomed to calling the mountains and seas ‘the divine realm.’ The term ‘mountains and seas’ was actually a modern term proposed by the Nine Kings. Do you know why?”
Shi Dingyan asked this question at the time.
Having traveled to ancient times, Shen Qian naturally knew that mountains and seas were referred to in the same way in that era, and kings and nobles were called "true gods," but he had never really thought about the specific reasons.
What's the explanation?
"The Divine Realm, the Divine Realm, is the realm of forging gods. Since it is forging, it is naturally a process of tempering and refining, and each one is different. Some can become fine steel, while others are just ordinary iron..."
According to Shi Dingyan's analogy, mountains and seas are a process of laying the foundation for the rise of kings and nobles.
There are countless mountains and seas in the world, but only a handful of people have ever become kings and nobles. This is because even if many people reach the highest levels of mountains and seas, they still do not have the foundation to become kings and nobles.
If this is a tempering process, then it's equivalent to the steel still containing too many impurities, making it impossible to directly cast into a divine weapon.
Why are there powerful and weak kings and nobles?
That is naturally due to the different degrees of tempering. The stronger the foundation building, the stronger the mastery of the Mountain and Sea realm.
Although Shi Dingyan and Ling Xiao could not accurately describe what the "Peak of Mountains and Seas" was, Shen Qian roughly understood that the Peak of Mountains and Seas was equivalent to refined steel that had been tempered to the extreme. Even if it had not yet taken shape, it was already comparable to divine weapons!
"Therefore, for mountains and seas, realm is not that important."
"It concerns the 'path' you walk, the strength of your physical body, supernatural powers, and many other things."
"Weren't you curious before about what positions we, your fifth senior brother, held as 'Minister' and 'Sword Master'?"
Finally, Shi Dingyan smiled and said, "That is a literary rank, which is also a means to greatly enhance the combat power of the Mountain and Sea Realm, and can also broaden your 'Dao'."
"Breaking through the mountains and seas allows one to enter the Bridge of No Destiny, and the three heavens of mountains and seas grant one a place to enter the Sea of Learning, which is the place where one can obtain literary rank."
"There are three thousand literary ranks in the world, and each rank has endless wonderful uses. You will understand when you enter the sea of learning later."
Ling Xiao chimed in, "However, Junior Brother, you are quite special. You have shown such potential in the Nine Heavens Competition. Perhaps you will be granted special permission to enter the Sea of Learning next time it opens. You must make the most of it."
Shen Qian suddenly realized, and at the same time was even more glad that he had not been in a hurry to achieve success and directly devoured the "Hundred Herbs Classic" with his own body to become a king.
This move could very well destroy his already formidable foundation.
Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Chen Qian refocused his attention on the martial arts simulator in front of him.
His own combat strength has already been tested. He directly defeated the Lava Giant with his "Extreme Fist" after transforming into the Dark Buddha. Without taking into account his life-saving trump cards such as the Ten Directions Creation Body, this is already a fairly straightforward figure. Now it depends on how the system reacts.
He closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, his gaze had become incredibly deep.
Upon logging back into the test system, it was still that desolate land. When the lava giant descended from the sky, before the giant could even speak, "Shenqian" had already charged towards it aggressively.
The pitch-black arm swelled, golden runes swirled around it, and endless Yuan power converged on its right hand. The system and Shen Qian used the exact same method, but their auras were worlds apart.
The lava giant roared and slammed a fist the size of a house toward Chen Qian.
With a blank expression, he chose to confront the enemy head-on.
Boom!
Two fists, one large and one small and completely disproportionate, collided, and with the spread of a dull sound wave, the ground within a hundred meters around them collapsed with a deafening roar.
After a brief pause, the tiny figure remained motionless, while the lava giant, whose height exceeded tens of meters, was sent flying backward.
While still in mid-air, the lava giant's arm, which had collided with the sinking one, began to crack inch by inch, and the cracks spread to its huge body in the blink of an eye.
Boom boom boom!
Countless fragments of rock flew everywhere. When the system went offline and Shen Qian regained control of his consciousness, what he saw was the lava giant turning into a pile of rubble in front of him.
"That's really perverted..."
Shen Qian touched his nose, looking somewhat helpless.
Even with his full power, he only managed to shatter the lava giant's heart, while the system directly pulverized it into dust with a single punch.
