Chapter 69: Chapter 68: Great Harvest, Great Improvent (Requesting Monthly Votes)
“`
Lin Rui killed a total of 64 Martial Artists with enhancents at the Fabric Nightclub and received 59 notifications of having killed demonically transford Martial Cultivators.
Among them, five individuals did not suffer from enhancent syndro and were ntally normal.
But they were far from innocent, as the Blood Lizard Gang monopolized the drug trafficking business in the entire eastern district and also dealt in usury, with each mber deserving the death penalty.
Lin Rui only regretted that there were seven who got away during this operation.
These few were too far out of reach, and Lin Rui did not go out of his way to find them.
...
At that ti, Lin Rui was uncertain when the police would arrive, and he was also unsure when the Blood Lizard Gang reinforcents would get there; he had to complete the maximum amount of killing in the shortest ti possible, so he couldn’t attend to those on the peripherals.
Fortunately, he successfully completed this efficient harvest.
The Soul Power accumulated by these 59 demonically transford Martial Cultivators reached a staggering 14,041 points!
Lin Rui now had two choices. One was to use the Soul Power points to repair his Battle Spirit Ring to 20%.
With just another 7,000 Soul Power points, the Battle Spirit Ring could capture a second Battle Spirit.
However, even if he captured a second Battle Spirit now, Lin Rui would still not have enough Soul Power points to replicate skills.
What’s more, he hadn’t even fully learned the skills of Colonel Xue.
His second option was to strengthen his martial power and survival abilities as much as possible, which was undoubtedly the best choice.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Rui decisively called out to the Ring Spirit, “Ring Spirit, help replicate the Grandmaster-level Red Sky Thunder Protection Skill!”
Notification: Replicating Red Sky Thunder Protection Skill (Grandmaster) requires 5,000 Soul Power points.
After Lin Rui replicated it, his muscles began to ache violently again.
As he was running swiftly on the rooftop, he almost couldn’t bear it and nearly fell off the rooftop.
But once Lin Rui got used to it, his running speed on the rooftop began to increase exponentially.
Not only were his muscles stimulated by faint threads of lightning, Lin Rui’s footsteps also flashed with streaks of thunder, with powerful electromagnetic forces carrying his body at high speeds through the air.
Using his smart terminal bracelet to help calculate his speed, Lin Rui found that if he didn’t care about the drain, and ran at full force, he could actually reach an extre speed of 350 kiloters per hour.
Even if he scaled back a bit, using a more energy-efficient economy mode, he could still reach 200 kiloters per hour.
His running was as unpredictable as lightning, swiftly changing from east to west, making it impossible for anyone to accurately judge.
Besides, Lin Rui could interfere with his opponents using high-temperature flas and lightning, and even move anywhere at will with the aid of surrounding flas and lightning.
This miraculous ability was almost akin to magic and special abilities rather than martial arts.
Unfortunately, Lin Rui’s True Qi was too weak. Using the fire Escape Skill a few tis in battle would leave him drained, and he couldn’t achieve Colonel Xue’s extre 100-ter distance, only managing to transfer 20 ters away with the help of fla and electrical currents.
However, with this Escape Skill, Lin Rui’s combat power would be greatly enhanced.
The Grandmaster-level Purple Brilliance Thunder Blade, combined with the Grandmaster-level Red Sky Thunder Protection Skill, would make Lin Rui’s blade technique more than 10 tis more lethal than before.
Theoretically, it should also increase Lin Rui’s escape capabilities.
But he was currently cooperating in battle with Wang Sen and couldn’t possibly abandon Wang Sen and flee.
What Lin Rui valued the most was the formidable combat power that the Red Sky Thunder Protection Skill provided.
“Sure enough, after replicating this Escape Skill, my Soul Power, physical fitness, and True Qi have all been enhanced a bit, with the magnitude slightly stronger than the ti I replicated the Purple Brilliance Thunder Blade, with the greatest improvent in my legs where multiple muscle groups have significantly strengthened—interesting! Although a single martial art doesn’t enhance much, the cumulative effect of these martial arts combined yields a considerable benefit.”
While using the Red Sky Thunder Protection Skill to run at high speed, Lin Rui was also sensing the conditions within his body.
After he got accustod to the Escape Skill, he continued to call out to the Ring Spirit.
“Ring Spirit, I want to replicate the foundation of Great Achievent-level magic, the foundation of Mastery-level talisman, and the foundation of Mastery-level formation.”
Notification: Replicating the foundation of magic (Great Achievent) requires 1,000 Soul Power points, replicating the foundation of talisman (Mastery) requires 800 Soul Power points, and replicating the foundation of formation (Mastery) requires 800 Soul Power points.
As Lin Rui sensed the information in his mind, he imdiately frowned.
The Soul Power points needed to replicate these three foundational skills were a bit high, and the foundation of magic was only at Great Achievent, while the foundation of formations and talismans were rely at Mastery level.
He still chose to confirm, causing a wealth of information to form in his mind.
“`
These three skills had almost no impact on his body, except that Lin Rui’s arms were sowhat sore.
The Basics of Magic is the thod for casting basic spells, and after copying this skill, Lin Rui could not only directly master up to 20 basic spells from the Sky Extre Star but also many hand-seal techniques.
However, since the human body is different from that of the Sky Extre Star people, humans need to implant so special auxiliary devices in their bodies to cast spells.
“Battle Spirit Ring, I want to copy the True Verity level True Origin Stacking Skill and True Verity level Magic Control Divine Technique!”
Prompt: Copying True Origin Stacking (True Verity) requires 3000 Soul Power points, copying Magic Control Divine Technique (True Verity) requires 3000 Soul Power points.
Lin Rui’s facial expression suddenly twisted as his body once again endured intense pain.
Especially in his mind, it was as if an explosion had occurred, almost turning his brains into a mushy paste.
‘True Origin Stacking’ is the advanced Stacking Skill of ‘Nourishing the Spirit Stacking,’ specifically for cultivating the soul and spiritual power.
As for the ‘Magic Control Divine Technique’, despite its grand na, it’s actually a mid-level magus inheritance commonly spread among the Sky Extre Star’s folk, including twenty-four hand-seals, twenty-four mid-level spells, and seven mid-level formations.
This Magic Control Divine Technique had already been cultivated by that Caucasian middle-aged man to the level of True Verity.
So, actually, this man’s combat power was very strong.
If the Caucasian middle-aged man had chosen to take on Lin Rui in person instead of a spiritual attack, Lin Rui might not have been able to withstand even a single move.
Yet, the man chose spiritual possession and was refined and killed by the combined efforts of Lin Rui and Xue Bogao’s Battle Spirit Ring, which could be considered extrely unlucky.
Once the painful sensation within Lin Rui subsided, he clearly felt that the range of his Spiritual Sense had extended by about one ter.
In addition, both his physical fitness and the amount of True Qi had been sowhat enhanced.
After carefully sensing for a mont, Lin Rui felt a bit of regret in his heart, “It’s a pity, even though I’ve exchanged for the True Origin Stacking Skill and the Magic Control Divine Technique, I don’t have the magic-casting auxiliary device, so I can’t use them.”
——These two skills were actually copied for his alternative body.
At this ti, Lin Rui took an interest in the ‘Purple Glow Thunder Palm (Grandmaster)’ from Xue Bogao’s skill list.
After copying these skills, Lin Rui’s Soul Power points were just depleted, leaving only a re 441 points.
However, after experiencing the slaughter at the Fabric Nightclub, he distinctly felt that Xue Bogao’s obsession had less of an influence on him, especially the chilling energy that had accumulated in his brain, which had almost dissipated completely.
This was probably because he killed those 60 mbers of the Blood Lizard Gang and found out the identity of the murderer, satisfying so of Xue Bogao’s obsession.
Lin Rui estimated that his spiritual power was strong enough to forcibly copy a ‘Purple Glow Thunder Palm (Grandmaster)’ while withstanding the impact of Xue Bogao’s obsession.
However, after pondering for a mont, he still gave up the idea.
“It’s better to learn slowly with Grandmaster Xue. Even if I copy another Purple Glow Thunder Palm, it won’t greatly improve my combat power.”
The Purple Glow Thunder Palm and the Purple Glow Thunder Blade have the sa origin, and their martial mysteries are almost identical.
Lin Rui had already mastered the Grandmaster level Purple Glow Thunder Blade, so it would be easy for him to learn the Purple Glow Thunder Palm.
The only significance of exchanging the Purple Glow Thunder Palm now was the slight body enhancent it offered.
At this ti, Lin Rui arrived at a large street, where he summoned a shared business flying vehicle at the roadside and headed towards Mingde University.
The distance from Lin Rui’s location to Mingde University was a full 50 kiloters. If he really relied on his own legs to get there, it might take Lin Rui half an hour and all his True Qi, so it was more ti-efficient and less strenuous to take a vehicle.
Taking the shared flying vehicle would expose his whereabouts, but Lin Rui didn’t care.
Simply because his personal intelligent terminal had left traces of network positioning while he was in Fallen Street.
1700 years ago, in order to promote intelligent personal terminals and alleviate citizens’ concerns about personal privacy, the Earth Confederation enacted the stringent ‘Intelligent Terminal Act’.
The law stipulated that all citizens’ personal positioning trajectories are private information, and except for counter-terrorism needs, all governnt departnts do not have the right to investigate or use it as corroborative evidence in various cases.
So, Lin Rui just had to ensure that the police did not have strong, direct evidence against him.
Even if the police obtained so circumstantial evidence, there were lawyers to help him cope.
The security in the Ninth Base City was far from comparable to the directly managed First to Fourth Base Cities of the East Asian Republic; however, the equipped Martial Artists thrived even more in the Ninth Base City, including Lin Rui himself.
It has been a common truth since ancient tis: scholars confuse the law with words, while heroes violate prohibitions with martial force.
