Chapter 405
Yu Xinghai, as the chief commander of this counterattack, appeared on the front page of the military district headquarters newspaper, praised as “The Advancing General, Sounding the Horn for Humanity’s Counterattack against the Beasts.”
Even international military newspapers lauded his deeds, and the Eastern Military Region Daily devoted an entire page to Yu Xinghai’s outstanding performance in this campaign.
In contrast, Lu Sheng, who single-handedly slashed through the Catacomb, shaking the twelve war zones of the East and gaining imnse fa, received only a few lines in the newspaper.
However, his ranking on the All-Army General Stars List quietly soared to third, earning him the title “The First General Star of the East, the Eastern Region’s Scorching Sun.”
Although he single-handedly fought in the Catacomb, leaving the spectators in a frenzy, his purpose was rely to save his wife. Furthermore, personal heroism was taboo on the battlefield, so it was understandable that there wasn’t much coverage …
Lu Sheng put down the newspaper, his expression rather calm.
It seed that Yu Xinghai had “stolen his credit,” but in fact, what Lu Sheng ultimately received had not diminished in the slightest.
The military’s rewards were issued the next day: a full ten million rit points, plus an increased rit quota of twenty million, equivalent to an indirect reward of twenty million rit points.
The Mithril he had left near the front line of the Seventh War Zone was all returned to him, not a single piece missing.
In addition, there was a Diamond Dragon War rit dal awaiting the personal award from the Marshal of the military district.
The Diamond Dragon War rit dal is the highest level of war rit dal that the Eastern Military region can award. Above it is only the Purple Gold Dragon dal.
The Purple Gold Dragon Pattern dal must be recognized by the Martial Arts Association, the governnt, and the military before it can be awarded. To date, besides a few generals who made exceptional contributions in the early years of martial arts during the beast wars, the other recipients of the Purple Gold Dragon War rit dal in the Dragon Country were all deceased Martial Sages.
It can be said that the Diamond Dragon War rit dal, in so sense, already represented the pinnacle of honor that ordinary people below the Martial Sages could achieve.
In the entire Eastern Military Region, including several generals, those who had received this dal could be counted on one hand.
Lu Sheng was the youngest recipient. He was also the one who received it the earliest. This demonstrated the great importance the Eastern Military Region placed on him.
“My slash should have stunned many people.” This Diamond Dragon Pattern dal was mainly due to Lu Sheng’s extraordinary slash when he broke through the Catacomb.
Not only did it astonish the entire Eastern Military Region, but even Lu Sheng himself found it remarkable. That was almost his ultimate slash in his ultimate state.
“Unmatched State Martial God State Second Level of Shattering the Void (Emptiness) State Three Immortal Cells Martial Sages’s Slaughter skill …”
Lu Sheng couldn’t rember how much power he had used, he just knew that at that ti, all the beasts in the Catacomb, driven by a consciousness wave, seed to go mad, desperately trying to keep him there.
That suffocating feeling, as if being entangled and bound by countless seaweeds in a sea of despair, couldn’t be experienced unless one has personally went through it.
Then Lu Sheng used the spear as a blade and slashed upwards with “Heaven’s Will is like a Blade, My Will is like a Blade, Human Life is like Grass.”
After the slash, Lu Sheng almost collapsed.
First to be exhausted was his Gang Qi. Gang Qi originated from blood energy. A long ti ago, when he first entered the Martial Master realm, Lu Sheng no longer worried about Gang Qi.
Because as soon as he entered the Martial Master realm, he condensed a Blood Essence Pellet, with a total amount of Gang Qi almost dozens of tis that of the sa level Martial Master.
After the Immortal Cells transford, then broke and reestablished, achieving the Stellar Immortal Body. The Gang Qi beca even more abundant, to the point of being endless.
Coupled with the super recovery effect of the “Natural Breathing Technique,” Lu Sheng practically turned into a perpetual motion machine of Gang Qi.
He never dread that he would have a day when he would be “drained.”
Next was his spiritual power, most of which was also drained to mobilize more elental energy in the second level of the Empty State [previously: Shattering the Void] …
Only then did he deliver that stunning, earth-shattering slash.
Otherwise, how could it be called the ultimate?
If it weren’t for the “Natural Breathing Technique” instantly recovering a part of his power, he estimated that he wouldn’t have been able to escape the Catacomb afterwards.
“I wonder if my slash can compare to a Level 9 Martial Sage’s Dharma Manifestation power …”
Lu Sheng’s eyes flickered, guessing that it was probably still fell a bit short.
The Level 9 Martial Sage’s Dharma Manifestation mobilized all the energy of heaven and earth. That was the effect of using one to move ten, involving a hundred, and driving a thousand, ten thousand … No matter how much Gang Qi he had in his body, it definitely couldn’t compare.
Human strength had limits, but heaven and earth didn’t.
“To oppose the mighty power of heaven and earth with the strength of one person is too difficult … But I still have a lot of room for improvent. If my strength rises further, there may be a chance to oppose the Level 9 Martial Sage …” Thinking carefully, Lu Sheng realized that he hadn’t even broken through the Grandmaster realm yet.
“The Grandmaster realm doesn’t matter, the path I’m taking is already different from ordinary martial artists. But the Heaven and Earth Twin Bridges still need to be attempted …”
Just as the Empty State was about to enter the third level, at that ti, combined with the effect of opening the Heaven and Earth Twin Bridges, it could greatly accelerate Lu Sheng’s refining of the Immortal Cells.
“With twenty million rit points, plus the Mithril blocks I brought back, it is completely sufficient to forge a complete Qitian Yuanlun Blade*. There will be plenty left to exchange for different marrow liquid …”
[*Seven Heavens Primordial Chaos Blade].
Thinking of this, Lu Sheng felt a bit impatient.
But now was not the ti.
Soft footsteps approached, and Lu Sheng saw Li Die walking swiftly and lightly like a cat to his side, whispering, “Sir, the kitchen has been instructed. Everything you asked to prepare has been arranged.”
“Good.” Lu Sheng nodded, stood up from the chair, and walked upstairs.
“Co with , help pick out so clothes.”
“Yes.” Today was the first ti Lu Sheng had officially invited Dong Qingxue to his ho for dinner.
He took it very seriously.
“What do you think I should wear … ahem, to look better?” Lu Sheng opened the wardrobe, suddenly feeling a bit embarrassed seeing the clothes hanging inside.
