Shen Ye gave a whistle.
Although he was itching to ride it, showing off by zipping around on it outside right now was too conspicuous.
He decided he would wait until the streets were empty at night to make his grand appearance.
Shen Ye stowed away the Ghost Fire Motorcycle and his Biochemical Avatar, then made a call to Qian Rushan.
"I'm sorry, the user you are trying to reach has powered off his device."
Old Qian powered off his device?
Hmm...
It seems like he is close to making a breakthrough lately.
Forget it, I won't disturb him.
He checked the ti.
It was already nine in the evening.
Shen Ye asked a sister on duty whether there was a room to practice martial arts.
"Ah, of course, please follow ."
The sister on duty took him to the 79th floor.
This entire floor was dedicated to practice rooms, with facilities and conditions similar to those at Yunshan Port.
——They even provided various chilled beverages.
"Thank you."
"You're welco, Student Shen Ye, you are always welco back at the corporation, it is your second ho," the sister said with a sweet smile before leaving.
Tsk.
How nice.
Shen Ye closed the door to the practice room, took off his coat, and started warming up.
Among the Four Techniques of Frost Moon Shake the Heavens, Thunder Shock Palm had already reached the First Layer of the Law Domain.
Heavenly Shadow was also close to breaking through, thanks to the power of the Night Hidden Sword.
With the support of the Night Hidden Sword—
Shen Ye had beco very familiar with the skills of Heavenly Shadow First Layer.
He then stopped relying on the Night Hidden Sword and practiced on his own for about half an hour.
——He achieved Heavenly Shadow First Layer.
What remained were Flowing Moon and Frost Bite.
There was no trick for those two, just rigorous practice.
If that's the case, practice it is!
Shen Ye assud his stance, about to go all out in his practice, when his phone suddenly blared an urgent ringtone.
Before he could pick up the phone, an electronic voice ca through:
"Attention all individuals with Level Five clearance and above."
"This is Kunlun speaking."
"We are reporting an urgent situation:"
"The planet identified as 'Human Face' is approaching us!"
"Based on its velocity, it is estimated that by tomorrow noon, it will appear in the sky and be visible to the naked eye."
"This sighting incident cannot be avoided."
"I repeat, this sighting incident cannot be avoided!"
"Whether it will result in an impact is not yet determined, please, all invited individuals, prepare imdiately, an ergency eting is about to be convened!"
The voice from Kunlun ended.
The phone screen went dark.
Shen Ye tilted his head, pondering for a mont, then resud his stance to practice the Flowing Moon Movent Technique and Frost Bite Kicking Technique.
——Those matters were none of his concern.
It was better to take the ti to enhance his own strength!
Ti slowly passed.
He was covered in sweat, he took a short break, then picked up a bottle of water to drink.
"Hey, don't you think your thod of practicing is a bit slow?"
Skeleton suddenly spoke up.
"What do you suggest then?" Shen Ye asked.
"Since I've fully recovered after devouring Qu Ru, and even improved sowhat, how about I be your sparring partner?" Skeleton suggested.
"That eager to help?" Shen Ye was surprised.
"Nonsense, the stronger you are, the higher our chances of survival, and the greater the possibility of successfully reaching Cannon Branding Castle."
"Makes sense."
Thud.
Skeleton jumped out of the Ring, its form rapidly shrinking to a skeleton about the sa height as Shen Ye.
The Skeleton assud its stance and gestured provocatively at Shen Ye with its bony finger, stating confidently:
"I'll only use basic Close Combat Technique to spar, you can co at with all you've got."
Shen Ye took a step forward, radiating shadows like flowing water, and smiled, "Thanks, I'll try to grasp the skills quickly."
"Quit the chatter and co at ," the Skeleton said.
A foot suddenly enlarged in its field of view.
——The sneaker, brimming with the aura of frost, was about to kick its face!
"Ha!"
With a weird cry, Skeleton caught Shen Ye's foot between its two bony hands.
As it was about to counterattack, it found that Shen Ye had already retracted his foot using the Skeleton's own force, spinning and delivering another kick.
——It was still Frost Bite!
Skeleton had no choice but to brace for impact again.
This wouldn't do!
A long, bony tail suddenly extended from its back, seizing the mont between Shen Ye's attacks to lash fiercely at him.
Boom—
Thunder Shock Palm collided with the bony tail.
Both parties retreated several steps before stabilizing their positions.
"Your moves are tricky and powerful; it seems I need to be more cautious," said Skeleton earnestly.
Shen Ye's interest was piqued, and he asked, "Again?"
"All right!"
The two clashed in battle once more.
True to its word, Skeleton used only rudintary close combat martial arts to provide a full-force sparring session for him.
Ti gradually passed.
A few minutes later.
"Stop!" Shen Ye said.
"What's the matter? I'm really putting my heart into it," Skeleton inquired.
```
"I just feel like sothing is missing," Shen Ye said, hands on hips and head cocked to one side, his brow deeply furrowed.
"The opportunity for a breakthrough, perhaps? Afraid you still need more practice—at least continue the hard training and real combat for half a year, that should be about right," the Skeleton said.
"Half a year, huh? The daylilies will have gone cold by then," Shen Ye said.
"What are daylilies? Are they delicious?"
"They're delicious—let's stop fighting for now, I need to think."
Shen Ye walked over to one side, took a towel to wipe his sweat, and gazed out at the city's night scene outside the window.
Although he had gained sothing from practice, it was still not enough.
—How did I advance the Thunder Shock Palm to the First Layer of the Law Domain initially?
That's it!
I had piled all my free attribute points into "Comprehension," which led to the successful breakthrough.
Really, how could I have forgotten about that!
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, small characters appeared out of thin air:
"You have allocated all your free attribute points to 'Comprehension';"
"Current Comprehension is:"
"19 13=32 points."
32 points of Comprehension.
—That's far higher than when I first grasped the First Layer realm of Thunder Shock Palm!
Shen Ye let out a breath, walked back to the center of the room, and took up a fighting stance.
"Let's continue," he said.
"Alright!" The Skeleton limbered up its physique and imdiately charged at him.
Shen Ye gave it a surprised look.
Every one of its movents, every step it took beca slow enough to break down, and I even knew what its next attack would be.
The Skeleton took its first step—
It should be capable of seven different close combat techniques.
By the second step, three remained.
By the third, just one.
Swing Fist.
Then—
Shen Ye parried with one hand and kicked out.
Smack.
The Skeleton t his kick with its elbow and bounced back.
...Wrong.
Why am I looking at it?
I should be observing my own moves!
Shen Ye took a breath and began to silently sense the flow of power of the Frost, Moon, Shock, and Sky.
At this mont.
He felt as if he had beco a fully analyzable data set.
Every action, every move, its origin, how many muscles were used, the manner of striking, how much strength was expended, how much spiritual power was released, and when to unleash the frost—
Everything was clear to him, deeply engrained in his heart.
"Watch out for my hamr strike this ti!" the Skeleton shouted as it jumped up, fists overlaid to form a hamr, and smashed down towards Shen Ye.
Shen Ye shook all over, instantly retracted all his Flowing Water Body Technique defenses, and raised his hands to block the Skeleton's double hamr right where he stood.
"Hmm—?" the Skeleton uttered in surprise.
For its double hamr strike was thwarted by him, but there was a swoosh of wind behind it—
How could that be?
He's clearly blocking , so why is there a chill of frost on my back?
The Skeleton turned to dodge, but was caught by Shen Ye's hand in front—
So who's behind ?
It made a desperate move to take the hit, forced to turn its head to look.
Shen Ye.
It was still Shen Ye!
He spun and delivered a kick.
"Not so fast!" the Skeleton shouted, using its head as a hamr to counter his kick.
Thud—
A muffled sound.
The Skull Head did indeed block the kick, but the frost on Shen Ye's leg transford into a sharp frostblade that instantly pierced through the Skeleton's body, splitting it into two.
"...Are you trying to kill ?" the Skeleton said.
It remained standing, holding its skeleton fra together with both hands to prevent it from falling apart.
"Don't move—don't move, it's my fault, I just had a breakthrough with that move, it was an accident!" Shen Ye withdrew his attack and hurriedly fetched the fishbowl, quickly placing the still-live Skeleton into it.
I had split the body of soone who was helping wholeheartedly.
—This wasn't a decent thing to do.
"Darn... What was that just now?" the Skeleton demanded persistently.
"Frost Bite—I've made a breakthrough," Shen Ye said.
"And what's the deal with those two of you?"
"It's the movent technique. I move so fast your eyes deceive you into thinking there are two of ," Shen Ye explained.
He poured so calcium supplent liquid into the fishbowl.
"Damn it! Your teacher was right, the techniques of your sect are too ferocious—I don't want calcium, I want crayfish!" the Skeleton clutched its fra and whined pitifully.
"Okay, okay! I'm on it," Shen Ye quickly placated.
Rows of glowing small characters floated into existence in the void:
"Congratulations."
"Your Frost Bite and Flowing Moon have officially advanced to the First Layer of the Law Domain."
"Frost Bite:"
"First Layer of the Law Domain, Ice Kicking Technique."
"Effects: 1. Increase the probability of kicking away enemies and their weapons, and even techniques, while carrying the Ice Attribute, slowing the movent of the kicked object;"
"2. When executed, releases Frost Blade Edge that slashes at the enemy and further slows down their movent and attack speed."
"—Frost flows unnoticed in the air."
