Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation

The sixteen black-armored soldiers placed the heavy object on the ground, creating a rumbling sound.

Lu Yongsheng stepped forward and removed the red cloth, revealing a breathtaking aura that filled the air.

Lu Yun’s eyebrows slightly raised, his gaze instantly fixated.

It was a snow-white, shining saber with a captivating, icy aura swirling around it. A single glance would make one lose their focus. The blade was as thin as a cicada’s wing, incredibly sharp, and seemed capable of cutting through anything in the world.

The blade was three feet and eight inches long, with a slight curve, giving it a powerful aesthetic. The hilt was engraved with an ice dragon pattern, as if a flood dragon was carved onto it, making the entire saber look extraordinary.

I heard your saber was damaged in battle, so I’m giving you a new one,” Lu Yongsheng said.

With a wave of his sleeve, the heavy saber, weighing thousands of pounds, was lifted by a force.

“This saber is called Dragon Scale. The blade is forged from flood dragon scales and contains the essence of a flood dragon’s blood, making it incredibly powerful. It weighs 8,500 pounds, and while it’s only a mid-level Mysterious Instrument, it’s not far from a Top-Grade mysterious weapon.”

Upon hearing this, the surrounding Black Tiger Army soldiers revealed scorching light in their eyes. Most of them were using Low-level mysterious weapons.

As for the others, they only had Superior True Artifacts in their hands.

Light sparkled in Lu Yun’s eyes. A mid-level Mysterious Instrument required at least 300,000 Contribution Points to exchange.

He had killed hundreds, if not thousands, of Demon Beasts, including those at the Fifth-Rank peak level, but his accumulated points were still less than 200,000.

Now, the other party gifted him a saber worth 300,000 points. Lu Yun had mixed feelings, especially since he had just rejected the other party.

However, he would not refuse the gift at hand.

If he could refuse this, he would be worse than an animal.

Perhaps sensing Lu Yun’s unease, Lu Yongsheng smiled lightly. “Why don’t you give it a try?”

The Dragon Scale Saber emitted flashes of cold light, emanating a faint, dragon-like roar.

With a swoosh, it flew to Lu Yun’s side.

Lu Yun nodded and grabbed the hilt.

Hum!

The Dragon Scale Saber trembled violently, and a fierce storm suddenly erupted. Lu Yun’s clothes rustled, his black hair billowing wildly behind him.

Hmph!” Lu Yun snorted coldly and infused the saber with his strength. The violent storm immediately dissipated, and the Dragon Scale Saber became docile.

Then, he poured in his Pure Yang Strong Origin energy and with a swish, an incredibly sharp and astonishing blade aura stretched out, cleaving the air in front of him and creating cracks on the ground from the pressure.

Great saber, great saber, truly a great saber!” Lu Yun exclaimed, articulating his love for the Dragon Scale Saber.

The Dragon Scale Saber was heavy, aggressive, and powerful, making it a perfect fit for his battle style. He couldn’t help but adore it.

After wielding it several times, he finally put the Dragon Scale Saber away.

“Thank you, General Lu. I will not forget the gift of the saber.”

“It’s what you deserve, and besides, it’s just a mysterious weapon, so don’t worry too much about it.’¹

Lu Yongsheng’s smile grew even wider. His gift to Lu Yun was not only due to his significant contribution but also an investment in Lu Yun.

At the peak of the Transforming Origin Realm, Lu Yun was able to defeat a Fifth-Rank peak Demon Beast. Even the most elite Heavenly Pride of Ling Province might not be able to achieve that.

This demonstrated Lu Yun’s exceptional talents.

Lu Yongsheng could see that Lu Yun was a rising dragon with great potential.

Given time, he would soar to the heavens and become a true dragon.

Lu Yun understood the other party’s intentions, so he expressed his gratitude for the saber.

As for Huang Sheng and the others, they looked at Lu Yun with complicated expressions. They also wanted to establish some relationship with Lu Yun, but they didn’t have the same level of determination or wealth as Lu Yongsheng.

“If there’s nothing else, I won’t disturb your meeting any longer.”

After saying this, Lu Yun turned and left.

After Lu Yun left, Huang Sheng couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Lu, I’m impressed that you can just give away something worth over 300,000 merit points.”

The merit points Huang Sheng mentioned were actually contribution points. Soldiers in the army could gain these rewards by killing Demon Beasts, while other martial artists received contribution points for the same feat.

“It’s just a worldly possession. Don’t take it too seriously.” Lu Yongsheng grinned mysteriously.

More than 300,000 merit points was indeed a considerable fortune for someone at the peak of the Golden Body Realm like him. In reality, he wasn’t as relaxed as he appeared; in fact, he was quite pained.

However, when he thought about Lu Yun’s talents, his pain transformed into a knowing smile.

“Sigh… over 300,000 merit points,” the officers and soldiers in the tent sighed and shook their heads.

Only Lu Yongsheng could offer such a large amount of merit points, and he was the only one willing to give them away to others.

After leaving the camp, Lu Yun met up with Liang Shaowen to celebrate their success with a night of revelry before parting ways.

It’s been a long time since I’ve returned to the Martial Academy. It’s time to go back.”

Lu Yun hadn’t forgotten about the two tasks he had completed some time ago. After reporting them, he would receive at least twenty thousand contribution points.

Moreover, his Slaughter Conception had improved to more than thirty percent of the third rank. By going through the Myriad Phenomena Tower, he could earn a substantial amount of contribution points.

Furthermore, he needed to learn a new martial arts technique designed for combat.

For all these reasons, he had no choice but to return to the Martial Academy.

After leaving the Great Wilderness Major City, Lu Yun hurriedly rode his horse back to the Martial Academy.

The following day, Lu Yun returned to the Martial Academy.

The mountains stood tall, and the mist drifted around them.

Gazing at this beautiful scenery, a look of intense joy washed over Lu Yun’s face.

“I’m finally back.”

There were two places where he felt most at ease.

One was the farmhouse courtyard in Spirit Creek Village.

The other was the detached house on Star Peak that belonged to him.

However, he did not spend a lot of time in either the farmhouse courtyard in Spirit Creek Village or the detached house on Star Peak.

It would likely be a long time before he would return to Spirit Creek Village.

As for the Martial Academy, he couldn’t stay there for too long either.

“Once I am finished with matters here, it’s time to leave Ling Province.”

Lu Yun never forgot about the agreement he had made with that person, and he planned to embark on his journey after some time had passed.

As the courtyard had been unattended for a long time, it was covered in a thick layer of fallen leaves and dust.

With a sweep of his sleeve, a vast wave of Pure Yang Strong Origin spread throughout the courtyard, quickly annihilating the dust and leaves.

“Hmm, this looks much better.”

Satisfied with the clean courtyard, Lu Yun smiled.

Next, he repeated the same cleaning process for every room in the house. Afterward, he took a comfortable hot bath before falling into a deep sleep.

Over this time, word of Lu Yun’s return had spread throughout the entire Martial Academy.

Many people, whether they were acquainted with him or not, had visited him. However, Lu Yun had refused all of them and only met with Duan Qing.

In comparison to before, Duan Qing had lost weight and grown stronger, having reached the peak of the True Qi Realm. Once he acquired the appropriate cultivation technique, he would be able to convert his True Qi into True Origin and advance to the Transforming Origin Realm.

After casually chatting with Lu Yun for a while, Duan Qing finally revealed his true intention for visiting.

“Xiao Chen came back just a month ago.”

Upon hearing that, a hint of delight flashed in Lu Yun’s eyes.

“But he left when he didn’t find you.”

Lu Yun looked at Duan Qing with a hint of reproach and dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Ignoring Lu Yun’s gaze, Duan Qing smiled faintly and said, “But before he left, he left a message for me to relay to you.”

Couldn’t you have said it all at once?” Lu Yun asked menacingly, “Hurry up, what did he want you to tell me?”

His message was quite peculiar, and I’m not exactly sure what it means.” But I’ll tell you his exact words.

Please tell Lu Yun that my time is running out, and I’ll be waiting for him in the depths of the Endless Wilderness.”

“That’s it? Nothing else?” Lu Yun asked in surprise.

“Yes, that’s all there is.” Duan Qing said solemnly, “However, I find Xiao Chen to be very mysterious. At times, he seems like a sharp sword, casting a chilling sensation all over those who even glance at him. Other times, it almost feels like a layer of clouds and mist shrouds him, making him seem incredibly unreal.”

Hmm, you’re not wrong about that. Xiao Chen is indeed quite mysterious, and he’s so elusive that even I can’t see him clearly.”

As Lu Yun said this, memories of the incident aboard the Black Boat came flooding back to his mind.

What was the relationship between that mysterious person and him?

And what did he mean when he said his time was running out?
