A roar echoed from deeper within the cave.
"Who dares to trespass on my territory? What have you done to my servants?!"
["As expected, there's a boss." You charge down and casually blast the three half-dragons still entangled with the Three-Faced King Kong to pieces, three chunks of flesh crashing to the ground.]
"This is a bit dangerous, you two step aside." You grabbed one of the warlock's fingers, which was over ten centimeters thick, and with a twist, flung the giant ape, which was as tall as a four-story building, over a hundred meters away.
[Click click click!]
[You used your strength to disperse the force with your feet, but you still managed to dent and crack the rock slabs within a radius of several meters.]
[The Three-Faced Vajra: "..."]
So what is he doing here?
Yun Shou: "All you two need to do is shout '666'."
After releasing the three Vajra warriors from the arena, you clenched your fists with excitement. A massive surge of energy, like a small lake, coursed through your body, raising your power to a new level!
[Right now, you are only at the third stage of the five realms within the "Extreme Martial Arts" Zero Realm, "Tendon Hammering," which involves tempering the tendons and muscles to further unleash power. You have already completed most of this stage, making you comparable to a top-tier Qi Martial Artist in the Zun Yuan system.]
However, numerically, this person has already reached the top tier of the early-stage Innate Realm, making them a Grandmaster with twenty times the combat power!
"Without martial arts bonuses, the innate strength ranges from 10 times that of a Grandmaster to 150 times that of a Grandmaster. 30 times is the mid-stage, 70 times is the late-stage, and 150 times is the perfect stage."
Yun Shou mentally calculated: "But a 10x Grandmaster refers to a Grandmaster whose aptitude has just reached its limit through the Heavenly Origin Cleansing Technique. A Grandmaster with full aptitude does not count as the Sacred Body Transformation Zone, but is 10 times the combat power, which is about 3 times in the early stages."
"The difference is about 1.5 times for a Gang Jin Grandmaster, about 0.3 times for a Jin Qi Grandmaster, and 0.1 times for a Wu Shi."
"Eleven is now comparable to a first-class martial artist, and should only be 0.02 or even lower, but the actual performance is 0.04 times (more than 500 times is essentially magnified to 20 times)."
"It seems the physical stats provided by this Extreme Martial Arts System are quite powerful!"
Yun Shou believes that, at the same level, martial artists of the Extreme Martial System are more than half stronger than those of the Venerable Origin Martial Artist!
"Different systems not only differ in function, some are simple and unadorned, while others are flashy and elaborate, but even their strength can vary!"
[Your current strength rivals that of the early stage of the Innate Realm. To compare you to the old Yun Qi, you are comparable to Yun Qi during the fight against the Otherworldly Demons (Chapter 92), but slightly weaker than the human Yun Liu during the fight against the Otherworldly Demons (Chapter 65)!]
The problem is, back then, Yun Liu and Yun Qi, who possessed demonic arts, were both at the peak of the first realm, while you are not even at the peak of the Boundless Realm!
A lithe, crimson figure emerged from the depths of the cave. Compared to the half-dragon, it wasn't just that its scales had changed color, making it appear more powerful and vigorous. Furthermore, sword-like thorns protruded from its elbows and back, two curved horns grew from the top of its head, and sword-like thorns bulged from the back of its head, making it incredibly ferocious.
"Argonians! But... they're different from the common Argonians!" the witch exclaimed.
[The Argonians are purified forms of half-dragon blood, ranking in the Second Realm!]
They can breathe fireballs, cast dragon magic, bathe in magma, and emit a sulfurous aura. Even ordinary people breathing normally near them will suffer throat and lung damage over time.
[The Argonians locked onto you immediately. Surrounded by small kobolds or fallen half-dragon corpses, you, standing upright as a normal human, stood out the most.]
"A Grandmaster? Or some kind of sorcerer?" the dragon spoke in human language. The surrounding corpses were clearly mangled by violence, indicating that the attacker was not a wizard.
Your response was a straightforward punch.
The Argonian spread its five claws, its fingers sharp as blades, and grabbed at your incoming fist.
Its strength... is at the late stage of the Innate Realm, 120 times that of a Grandmaster, and six times that of you!
[Moreover, as a being with dragon blood, its dynamic vision is extremely strong!]
If this claw strikes, it will surely tear your flesh and skin, and might even break your arm bone!
[But the explosive force, like an air gun deflecting its right claw, caused three parts of your body to shoot out bursts of energy in the same instant.]
The first burst of energy aimed straight for its heart. The dragon reacted quickly, lowering its left hand to block its chest, but the other two bursts were aimed at its eyes!
You have already engaged in combat, almost at hand-to-hand, where in the blink of an eye, a single thought can determine life or death.
The force of the energy shattered only a single scale on the Argonian's left arm, but when it struck his eye, it was enough to cause permanent blindness; both lenses were destroyed!
This isn't a clash of energies, nor is it a battle between cultivators at the third or fourth level with astonishing regenerative abilities. In this pure physical combat, a single thought can determine life or death!
The Argonian screamed in agony, then began to thrash about wildly, clawing and spewing intensely hot flames from its snout. Even blinded, it was no ordinary mid-stage Innate Realm being that would dare approach it in its frenzy!
But you... can predict every single one of its future actions!
Although a single blow from it would only cause you a mild to moderate injury, you can't withstand it!
If the Argonian attacks to the left, you should ambush from the right.
[It spews flames upwards, so you deliver a powerful blow from below.]
He charged haphazardly against a stone wall, smashing a large hole in the ancient cave, which was probably tens of thousands of years old. You, however, launched a sneak attack from behind, kicking him in the center of his back.
Before each attack, you not only predicted his next move, but also the counterattack that your own attack would trigger.
Although I could take down him even with some injuries, and those injuries wouldn't heal quickly, I know this battle is being broadcast live the whole time. How could I possibly be seriously injured by a mere second-realm Calami?
So each time, you narrowly avoided the attack. The witches and sorcerers watching were dumbfounded. They saw you dodge the Argonian's attacks multiple times. If it weren't for the fact that the Argonian's eyes were being blinded and his injuries were getting worse, they would have really thought you two were putting on an act!
[The Argonians are too cooperative; every attack they launch is perfectly timed and angled to avoid hurting you. It's like you two aren't even on the same level.]
Even a thousand miles away, some powerful figures showed strange expressions on their faces.
[That dragon-like creature, though powerful, is actually incapable of fighting; it merely wields immense strength. If they suppressed their power to the same level as you, they could easily toy with that dragon-like creature in the same way.]
However, this only refers to power.
