"Peak Physique: Physical Strength 99"
This was Chen Yang's reward—simple yet incredibly powerful.
That's a physical strength of 99!
When Chen Yang first entered the Micro Realm, his physical strength was a very embarrassing number—38!
After acquiring wolf-like blood and beginning martial arts training, his physical attributes gradually improved. Initially, it was rapid, and he soon broke through 50, though he had only barely reached 70 before coming to the Snow Region. Apart from intelligence, physical attributes and combat power can experience explosive growth with consistent training, but improvement slows down afterward.
And now? It leaped directly to ninety-nine! This isn't just a burst, it's an explosion! It's like it's flying upwards on a rocket!
Chen Yang's physical appearance hasn't changed much, except that his muscle definition seems to remain unchanged, making him look a little more comfortable than before.
This reward is truly amazing, and it was worth the trip Chen Yang made. He originally just wanted to experience the feeling of reaching the top of the world, but he never expected such a huge surprise to be waiting for him.
It seems there are still many areas in the micro-world that he can explore.
After his physical strength broke through to 99, his combat power also reached 99.
This made Chen Yang very curious. His combat power was originally over ninety, and after such a qualitative leap in his physical strength, his combat power only increased by less than ten points. Although it is more difficult to improve in the later stages, there shouldn't be such a big difference.
Is 99 the limit?
Considering the words "extreme peak," Chen Yang felt that his guess was very likely correct.
Does that mean my physical strength and combat power have already reached their peak? Then I should be the strongest in the world now, right?
Chen Yang could clearly feel the explosive power within his body. Even if he were to face Master Chanshan and Old Master Yun, Chen Yang believed that he would definitely win, and win with an overwhelming advantage.
However, Chen Yang also knew that there was still a lot of room for improvement in his skills, and that he could still become stronger. This made him feel that 99 might not be the limit, and that the gap between 99 and a perfect score of 100 might be unimaginable, and that there was still a long way to go.
I don't give myself 100 points, probably because I'm afraid of becoming arrogant.
Chen Yang stood atop the Cang'er Snow Mountain, gazing at his surroundings. His focus was on the back of the mountain; he had always been curious about what lay beyond, completely bewildered by the hints from the micro-realm. Furthermore, the mountain was shrouded in mist, and a cloud obscured his view.
At that moment, under the sun's rays, the clouds and mist gradually dissipated, and he was able to see the distant view.
The ocean stretched as far as the eye could see, but on its surface floated huge ice floes, like mountains and islands.
Behind the snow-capped mountain lies an icy ocean, another climate anomaly formed by the influence of micro-scale forces. Chen Yang felt that the icy ocean might be even colder. However, the oxygen content there wasn't as low, so survival was somewhat possible.
With his Eagle Eyes, he could see that there seemed to be some creatures living on the Arctic Ocean, but the distance was too far, and even with his Eagle Eyes, Chen Yang couldn't see them clearly. He could only see moving dots, which he guessed might be penguins.
Chen Yang took a closer look and saw several creatures that looked remarkably like penguins moving about on an ice floe relatively close to the snow-capped mountain.
Arctic Great Auk?
Chen Yang was somewhat surprised and uncertain. He only discovered this creature when he was browsing forums out of boredom. Someone said that there used to be penguins in the Arctic, not just polar bears, but they became extinct due to overhunting.
However, after carefully reviewing the information, he learned that it wasn't a penguin, but a creature that closely resembled a penguin called the Great Auk. The word "penguin" was even originally used to refer to the Great Auk.
Besides the great auk, Chen Yang also discovered several polar bears lying on a piece of ice floe.
He looked south again. He had been looking south throughout the climb, and as he approached the summit, he could see Chenghu Lake and the campsite, though the campsite was now just a dot in his eyes.
The western desert also came into his view, a golden expanse that looked so hot, yet he was in the snow-capped mountains, feeling incredibly cold. It was a truly strange feeling.
The eastern part was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see anything.
After acquiring the Extreme Physique, Chen Yang's cold resistance has also improved significantly. Now, he no longer experiences that bone-chilling cold; under the sun, he can even feel a touch of warmth.
All of this is so amazing!
Surrounded by vastly different landscapes, he seemed to have transformed into a giant, capable of traversing an entire world with a single step.
However, a gust of cold wind quickly dampened his ambition. Even with his peak physical condition, he was still human, and he could hardly bear the cold wind, especially since it was mixed with snowflakes, which he could not avoid.
After lingering over the scenery for a while longer and recording the spectacular sights with his camera, Chen Yang prepared to head back.
He slowly climbed down the cliff to the position closest to the Tenacious Blade. His Extreme Body gave him much better control over his body.
Holding a throwing knife crafted by Hong Gui, Chen Yang thrust it violently into the cliff face.
The throwing knife only penetrated about one centimeter, which is already quite good. Just over ten minutes ago, Chen Yang didn't have the strength to stab it in that far.
Chen Yang took the axe he carried with him and kept striking it with the blade for more than five minutes until the axe broke.
He took out another throwing knife, pried out half of the blade that was stuck inside, and continued to knock it in. Finally, he managed to knock the blade almost in. This had already exhausted Chen Yang. Each knock was done with all his might, and he was standing on the cliff face, so he had to be very careful.
Then, Chen Yang started knocking on the second spot.
He hammered for a full half hour, breaking three knives in the process. He took several breaks along the way, and when he felt his hands were about to break, he finally managed to create a treacherous staircase on the cliff face with his knives, along with two cracks he had hammered out, just enough to grab onto.
Chen Yang, stepping on the hilt of the knife, pulled out the stubborn wound.
The Tenacious Blade is easy to insert and easier to pull out than other knives. There's still a knife handle on the cliff that Chen Yang couldn't pry out no matter what he tried.
Chen Yang's method of drawing the knife is something that no one else can learn. Who can have his strength and balance, and also control the wind? Otherwise, try standing on the hilt of the knife.
After retrieving his knife, he returned to the top, greeted the ape opposite him, and began to run up, preparing to jump.
His running start was so fast, it felt like he was about to take off.
Chen Yang leaped out from beside the great crevice, like something out of a movie, soaring five or six meters high. With the aid of his ground-walking boots, light-footed agility, and the four extraordinary abilities of his wolf-like bloodline, he jumped nearly twenty meters. Then, at the highest point, he successfully completed a double jump, leaping across the great crevice.
Chen Yang descended like a god, and the snow-capped peaks seemed to tremble.
Haha, Chen Yang is starting to go crazy, Superman Yang!!!
