Chapter 981: Chapter 969: The Decline of the Extraordinary Inheritance
“This is just too tragic!” Muria smacked his lips.
“So, if possible, you should still make use of your identity and help your father out a bit more, help him collect more martial arts secrets.” Golden Dragon Mother also felt sowhat helpless, resting her forehead on her hand as she sighed, clearly finding her husband’s luck beyond words.
“I’ll try my best!” Muria nodded, not making any promises. He learned about the martial artist system, which was already in decline, only recently from Golden Dragon Mother.
He hadn’t heard a whisper of information about it before because the governnt had imposed an information blockade on this declining extraordinary system. In other words, this was the governnt’s suppression of this kind of extraordinary system. In this world, star armor masters were the mainstream.
“You can’t just try your best, your identity makes it easier for you to obtain martial arts secrets!” Golden Dragon Mother’s face beca more serious, “The Douglas family behind you definitely has a considerable collection of martial artist secrets.”
“Alright, I got it,” Muria nodded. “If my father reincarnated into a poor family’s waste, then what about you? What’s your current identity? It seems quite good; as soon as you received my ssage, you were able to open a high-end restaurant right outside my house.”
“I’m still not comparable to you. My current father is a business genius with an incredible head for comrce, now in his career pri, his assets always inflating. So, you could say I’m the daughter of a nouveau riche, and I don’t lack money. If you need money, just tell .”
“That’s much better than my father, a rich family’s young miss,” Muria laughed on hearing her current identity, “So, what’s your star talent compatibility?”
“Not that high, just 88.95%.” Golden Dragon Mother’s face showed a hint of dissatisfaction, then she looked at Muria, “What’s your compatibility?”
“64.68%.” Muria’s mouth twitched, realizing that compared to him, Golden Dragon Mother had a sowhat higher starting point.
“That’s it?”
“Yeah.” Muria nodded silently.
“What a waste. Such a sha for soone from a great family like yours.”
“…” Muria rolled his eyes. Could he even be blad for sothing that was entirely up to luck?
“Stop trying to be a star armor master. You’re not cut out for it. Go train in martial arts like your father!” Golden Dragon Mother took out a black tal cube that emitted a fluorescent glow and placed it in front of Muria.
“What is this?” Muria was unfazed by Golden Dragon Mother’s disdainful tone, as there was truly no comparing their respective compatibility.
“This is the martial arts secrets manual your father found in a corner of his house!” Golden Dragon Mother pointed at the cube on the table, “I originally brought it over as a precaution, not planning to give it to you, but I didn’t expect your compatibility to be so low.”
On hearing that this was a martial arts legacy secret manual his father had found, Muria beca interested. He picked up the black tal cube, sparkling with specks of fluorescent light, from the table. It felt heavy in his hands. After weighing it a mont, his face showed a trace of surprise,
“Void Star Gold!” Muria recognized the tal, one of the legendary tals well-known in the Erathia world, a strategic-level rare resource, coveted enough for legends to battle fiercely over it.
“Yes, that Void Star Gold is engraved with the cultivation thod of a martial artist!”
“It looks like a rather high-level cultivation thod!” Muria imdiately beca interested; any mark left on the legendary tal would, at a minimum, be the start of a legend. Indeed, the Star Armor World had legends even before the descent of the teor.
“How do I obtain the inheritance information on it?” Muria played with the tal cube for a mont but couldn’t find the supposed martial artist cultivation secrets.
“Combine it with the vital Qi you’ve cultivated and the ntal power you’ve nurtured. The threshold for this cultivation thod is quite high. Without tempering your body to a certain degree, you won’t be able to unlock the cultivation thod within it,” Golden Dragon Mother explained in a calm voice.
“Hmm!” Following her instructions, Muria channeled his body’s vital Qi and the ntal power he had ditated into existence, then triggered the martial artist’s legacy artifact.
In just an instant, an information stream filled with abstruse text and diagrams rushed into his mind. Muria slowly closed his eyes and began to absorb and digest the information within this stream.
In less than a mont, Muria opened his eyes and exhaled slowly. Now, having a rough understanding of the martial artist system, he couldn’t help but marvel:
“No wonder the martial artists have declined, the basic requirents for cultivation are too high for the average person; there simply aren’t enough suitable heirs!”
“This is just one cultivation thod among many for martial artists. Different thods have different requirents for practitioners and require different resources,” Golden Dragon Mother said, shaking her head, equally aware of the martial artist’s extraordinary system, “With the ergence of star armor masters as a profession, the decline of martial artists was inevitable.”
“After all, the role of a Star Armor Master aligns more with the needs of a ruler,” Muria had finally understood why the profession of a Martial Artist had declined to the point where even its na was hardly heard anymore.
Mighty Martial Artists were the very embodint of individual power, and were also classic examples of vigilantes with the power to breach the law. Regardless of the ruler, they were extrely opposed to and disgusted by such strong individuals who could not be controlled.
Star Armor Masters, however, were different. The combat power of a Star Armor Master was linked to the Star Armor they controlled. A fully ard Star Armor Master and one without armor were completely different concepts; Star Armor Masters were heavily dependent on their Star Armor.
The creation and power of Star Armor heavily relied on the collective. No matter how strong a Star Armor Master beca, they could not exist independently from the collective, unlike Martial Artists. Therefore, with the ergence of Star Armor Masters, the oppression of Martial Artists beca inevitable.
Moreover, in terms of widespread adoption, Star Armor Masters completely outclassed Martial Artists. Almost every ordinary person had the potential to beco a Star Armor Master, while Martial Artists were different—the threshold just for entering the field was astonishingly high.
Take for instance the Martial Artist cultivation thod Muria had obtained, “All Heavens Constellation Path”; the natural talent required for unblocking ridians that it demanded could not be found in one out of a hundred thousand people.
The key point was that to beco a Martial Artist, one needed a large amount of rare resources to accompany their training, and even then, success was not guaranteed.
In contrast, Star Armor Masters did not have such fanciful requirents. For them, Star Armor was everything. They relied on Star Armor for combat power and for cultivation too.
Star Armor Masters did not face limitations in cultivating resources. Star Gold was a governnt-controlled resource, but it was also the most abundant tallic resource. Though it wasn’t to the extent of being found everywhere, it was close to that.
With all these fatal factors combined, the decline of the profession of Martial Artists was unsurprising.
“So that’s it for today. I should head back now. If I stay too long, my mother in this world will discover , and that would make things complicated to explain.”
Having understood the general situation of his parents and having obtained a lost Extraordinary Inheritance, Muria stood up. He was very satisfied with what he had gained from this trip.
“It seems the woman who took my mother’s place is keeping a close watch on you,” the Golden Dragon Mother raised an eyebrow after hearing Muria’s words. “Do you miss your childhood, the ti I raised you?”
“Hehe,” Muria laughed twice. The Golden Dragon Mother and Susanna were completely opposite extres.
“Muria, if your Martial Arts secret scripture cultivation reaches a certain point, and you need cultivating resources, you can directly apply to your Clan. You don’t have to run around and exhaust yourself collecting these things,” the Golden Dragon Mother reminded him as he was preparing to leave.
“Understood, I’ll rember that,” Muria nodded. The disadvantages of Martial Artists compared to Star Armor Masters were very obvious—higher cultivation difficulty, higher resource consumption, and simply no cost-effectiveness.
However, for Muria, things such as cultivation thresholds clearly did not exist, and the resources consud were nothing for the Clan supporting him. Moreover, his Clan wouldn’t mind having a powerful Martial Artist—Martial Artists were not entirely without rit.
…
“Martial Artist, Qi!”
After bidding farewell to the Golden Dragon Mother, Muria returned ho. He then started to closely examine the Martial Artist Inheritance scripture he had obtained. After a comparison, he discovered that the Qi cultivated by Martial Artists was extrely similar to the Fighting Qi cultivated by the close combat professions in Elasia.
Or rather, at their core, both were essentially the sa thing—both were a type of power derived from the body that could enhance oneself, elevate one’s life level, and also inflict destruction upon the external world.
The only difference was that Martial Artists of the Star Armor World needed quite a few external resources as aids, which was to be expected, after all, the energy level of the Star Armor World was far inferior to that of Elasia World.
“First of all, I need to cultivate the sense of Qi!”
With the abundant vitality within his body, Muria effortlessly completed the first step of cultivation required by “All Heavens Constellation Path.”
Since the so-called Qi of Martial Artists was sothing he had already trained in, now he rely needed to alter the Qi’s flow according to “All Heavens Constellation Path.”
Having been in this world for many years, he had already managed to explore and create a set of cultivation thods based on the laws of the Star Armor World. However, when compared to the cultivation thod summarized by the predecessors of the Star Armor World that he now possessed, it seed sowhat crude.
His cultivation thod might have been crude, but if such news were to spread, it would definitely cause a sensation, as he could be considered on par with the founder of the Martial Artist system. The hardest part is always going from zero to one.
“Next is to gather the Qi within the body, build a Qi Wheel, and manage all the strength of the body.”
