Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation

Chapter 39 - 39: Saber Technique Accomplished, Killing Intent Emerges



Without any hesitation, Lu Yun accepted Duan Qing’s kindness and didn’t even have a trace of doubt in his heart.

Such a good opportunity, to hesitate would be even worse than a beast.

Lu Yun despised those worse than beasts in his heart, and naturally, he wouldn’t do something that would make him one of them.

After parting with Duan Qing, Lu Yun resumed studying the Seven Kill Saber Technique.

Although the Seven Kill Saber Technique was an incredibly powerful martial art, it didn’t have too much content and only took Lu Yun half an hour to deeply memorize it.

Of course, it was also recorded on his panel.

If he wasn’t afraid of being discovered, he could even return it to the Cultivation Technique Pavilion right away.

Afterward, he went to the Weaponry Hall at the Internal Affairs Hall to exchange for a weapon.

The weapon was still a long saber, not a True Artifact, but forged from fine iron, which was much more durable and sharper than the one he brought from the Spirit Creek Village.

Back at the small courtyard, Lu Yun took out the two porcelain bottles containing the Meridian Pills right away.

Each of the small porcelain bottles contained ten pills, totaling twenty in all.

“I wonder how many Energy Values a single Meridian Pill can provide?”

Lu Yun weighed the translucent pill in his hand, examining it carefully, and his face gradually broke into a smile.

A short while later, he refreshingly popped the pill into his mouth and swallowed it down.

Just as expected, the Meridian Pill was far more advanced than the Body Tempering Pill, silky and smooth like jade, with excellent taste.

Not long after swallowing it, the long-silent panel began to show changes.

[ + 8 Energy Values]

[ + 8 Energy Values]

Without any hesitation, Lu Yun swallowed all twenty Meridian Pills, and every time the panel refreshed with new Energy Values, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

Finally, the two porcelain bottles were empty and thrown carelessly into a corner by Lu Yun, and his attention was focused on the refreshed panel.

[Name]: Lu Yun

[Influence]: Flying Spirit Martial Academy

[Martial Arts]: Breaking Wind Saber Technique (Perfection, cannot be improved), Mix Origin Technique (Perceive Truth, cannot be improved), Pure Yang Aura (Small achievement 1%), Seven Kill Saber Technique (Pre-Entry)

[Innate Talent]: Level 5

[Martial Arts]: Meridian Passage Realm (Middle Stage, 4 Meridians)

[Energy Value]: 163

“Energy Value increased by 160, and also added the Seven Kill Saber Technique!”

Lu Yun was very satisfied with today’s harvest.

By passing the first five floors of the Myriad Phenomena Tower, he obtained a total of 380 Contribution Points.

Afterward, he exchanged these Contribution Points for martial arts and weapons, which were very beneficial for his own strength improvement, indirectly increasing his own power.

Therefore, Lu Yun came to a conclusion: challenging the Myriad Phenomena Tower was a means to improve his strength.

Of course, this strength improvement wasn’t instantaneous; it required conversion, with the panel being the key.

Now, on the panel, there were two martial arts that could be improved: Pure Yang Aura and Seven Kill Saber Technique.

Pure Yang Aura focused on internal cultivation, which was the foundation of martial arts.

The Seven Kill Saber Technique focuses on the external and is the primary guarantee of his strength.

The importance of the two is almost the same. Now that the Pure Yang Aura has achieved a small achievement, there is no need to improve it for the time being.

“Begin!”

Lu Yun took a deep breath and directly invested ten energy points into the Seven Kill Saber Technique.

[Consume ten energy points, Seven Kill Saber Technique upgraded to Entry Level (1%)]

Suddenly, a cold and chilling aura was born and released from within his body, wrapping around and permeating throughout his body.

Although the aura was relatively thin, Lu Yun could clearly feel the bone-chilling cold and frostiness.

This coldness was not due to a change in temperature but the Killing Intent which, though very weak, was the first trace of Killing Intent that formed when the Seven Kill Saber Technique was cultivated to the Entry Level. It was the purest Killing Intent.

This purest Killing Intent began to attack Lu Yun’s undefended body.

Cold, painful, trembling – with every attack of the Killing Intent, Lu Yun could deeply feel the bone-chilling pain.

As the Killing Intent invaded, his body slowly adapted, and the pain gradually eased.

At this moment, a strange memory appeared in his mind: A figure, completely black and with an unrecognizable face, wearing a bamboo hat and holding a saber, stood before him.

Blood-red sabers, bloody roads, corpses everywhere, and martial artists slowly approaching from all directions.

This scene disappeared in a flash and was replaced by another scenario.

In the silent rain-soaked night, in the gray-black forest, a man and his saber slowly appeared in view. His cold and solitary figure gradually deepened in Lu Yun’s mind, but he could never completely see it clearly.

As the figure gradually approached, a memory as cold as a chilling stream emerged in Lu Yun’s mind, as if it were an innate memory without any abruptness.

[Consume ten Energy Points, Seven Kill Saber Technique upgraded to Entry Level (51%)]

[Consume ten Energy Points, Seven Kill Saber Technique upgraded to Small Achievement (1%)]

At the moment when the Seven Kill Saber Technique achieved a small accomplishment, an even stronger cold and chilling force invaded him once more. It took a dozen breaths for his body to gradually adapt.

Following that, bits of information continually appeared in Lu Yun’s mind, absorbed and digested by him – how to efficiently mobilize Killing Intent, how to reduce the harm of Killing Intent to oneself, how to use Killing Intent to deter others, and even how to regulate True Qi and Killing Intent, and so on.

This information, like nutrients, was continuously absorbed and digested by Lu Yun, eventually becoming part of his flesh, blood, and bones.

Phew!

At some point, Lu Yun slowly opened his eyes, exhaling like an arrow.

With a thought, an icy-cold and chilling aura appeared, and compared to the previous one, the Killing Intent had now become far stronger. It could be seen to solidify, and the moment it appeared, it almost froze the surrounding air into ice.

Although it was not quite as strong as his Pure Yang Aura.

However, Pure Yang Aura belonged to the extreme yang and rigidity, whereas Killing Intent was cold.

The effect of Killing Intent was not only to be cold, but its primary function was to deter others’ will, mentally attacking them and causing them to lose their fighting spirit.

Moreover, after cultivating the Seven Kill Saber Technique, Killing Intent could accumulate continuously. Killing Intent would be nourished by killing and fighting, and the more lives one took, the more Killing Intent would accumulate, increasing one’s strength.

Lu Yun got up and picked up the newly-acquired saber. With a thought, a faint red Killing Intent protected the blade, making the icy-cold blade even colder. Even the blade’s color was transformed into a faint red hue due to the faint Killing Intent in the blink of an eye.

Good heavens! Lu Yun secretly praised in his heart. This Killing Intent could transform in such a way, and it was only a small accomplishment level’s Killing Intent – far more powerful than he had imagined.

“However, the pain just now was truly unbearable. If it weren’t for the upgraded memory, which also contained information on how to control and use the Killing Intent, I might not be standing here so comfortably.”

“With the energy value upgrade, I can accumulate Killing Intent without killing. This cultivation process really feels like cheating!”

“However, it’s better this way; I don’t have to work too hard.”

Upgrading the Seven Kill Saber Technique from Pre-Entry to Small Achievement consumed a similar amount of energy value as the Pure Yang Aura, which surprised Lu Yun.

Seeing the remaining 133 energy points, Lu Yun didn’t hesitate and started the second round of upgrades..
