When Lu Yuan entered the Consciousness Space again, he returned to the place where he had first entered. He stood at a corner of a rockery, a lotus pond beside him. In front of him was a winding pronade. The Imaginary Enemy, a middle-aged man surnad Tang, stood thirty ters away at the end of it, his hands behind his back, silently watching him.
CRACK, CRACK—
Lu Yuan slightly twisted his neck, his bones creaking.
Indeed, after his physique and agility breakthrough, he hadn’t fought many battles in the Consciousness Space yet. This middle-aged man surnad Tang is a direct disciple of the Crane Sect. Judging by his age, his strength might even surpass that of Lin Zhiquin and Qin Feng. He’s a perfect opponent to test my current strength.
Lu Yuan looked around, his gaze locking onto the rockery beside him.
There was one aspect of these Consciousness Space battles that wasn’t ideal. Or perhaps, it was actually very good. Every ti, before a battle began, I had to trigger it myself. This gave plenty of prep ti. However, in a situation like this... I now find the opponent to be standing too far away. I can’t just ask him to run over, can I?
HUMPH!
Lu Yuan grabbed the rockery in front of him. His five fingers, like knives, dug deep into the rockery. A large amount of stone debris showered down from between his fingers. This rockery was made of quartz, harder than concrete. But under Lu Yuan’s terrifying finger strength, it was pierced as easily as frozen tofu, leaving several holes.
CRACK, CRACK, CRACK——
The rockery, about four square ters in area, trembled slightly, emitting an unsettling creaking sound as if it couldn’t bear the strain. This quartz rockery weighed over half a ton. Although Lu Yuan’s Fist Strength was close to a ton, his pure arm strength wasn’t that high.
Lifting this rockery is still a bit beyond my current capability. But if I add a little more, it should be enough.
Level 2 [Special Burst]!
As the skill activated, the muscles on Lu Yuan’s arms instantly tensed like steel cables, rapidly bulging and thickening. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes as he exerted force with his hands. The concrete anchoring the base of the quartz rockery shattered instantly, and Lu Yuan forcibly ripped out the decorative stone weighing over half a ton. A large amount of soil and gravel tumbled down.
BANG!
Lu Yuan took a step forward. The bluestone tiles beneath his feet shattered instantly. He stomped fiercely, and a deep crater exploded beneath him. Simultaneously, the veins on his arms bulged abruptly. With a surge of strength, he hurled the rockery, weighing over half a ton, directly at the middle-aged man under the covered walkway!
RUMBLE——
As the rockery left his hands, it tore through the air with a violent roar, like a teor streaking across the sky. In the blink of an eye, it slamd into the spot where the middle-aged man stood. BOOM! That section of the walkway was utterly pulverized.
WHOOSH——
Lu Yuan felt that the instant he released the rockery, the middle-aged man appeared before him like a phantom.
The Crane Sect prioritizes speed.
Lu Yuan wasn’t surprised by this. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes as he took a quick, deep breath. His partially inflated body instantly completed its full expansion. Then, without a second thought, he threw a punch directly at the middle-aged man.
Level 3 [Absolute Focus]!
Level 1 [Spirit Crane Skill: Crane Shadow Floating in the Air]!
Level 2 [Special Burst], threefold Variable Segnt Force Exertion!
His dark, thick, vein-covered arm suddenly shot out, like a giant python striking through the air. The ferocious wind from his fist sent the rubble on the ground skittering and rolling, while the surrounding flowers, grass, and green bamboo all bent violently in one direction. A sharp, ear-piercing whistle sounded in the air. Layers of white air waves rippled out from Lu Yuan’s fist.
This punch... is my strongest punch without activating the [Death Teller (Extraordinary)] panel skill.
Faced with this punch, a flicker of fluctuation crossed the middle-aged man’s otherwise emotionless eyes. His figure abruptly shot upwards, and he kicked out, lightly tapping the surface of Lu Yuan’s fist.
PUFF——
As fist and foot t, Lu Yuan instantly felt the imposing montum of his fist deflate, as if pierced by sothing sharp. Before he could even channel the force of his punch, the middle-aged man disengaged on contact, his entire form abruptly vanishing from Lu Yuan’s sight.
BANG!
A kick landed on Lu Yuan’s left ribs, sending his body sideways. He fiercely swung his arm back in a sweep, but another kick had already landed on his right shoulder.
BANG—— BANG BANG— BANG!
Lu Yuan was hit repeatedly, his entire body staggering like a small boat tossed about by giant waves.
Damn! His speed is too fast!
Under [Absolute Focus], Lu Yuan’s mind was as calm as a still lake. But now, ripples couldn’t help but spread across its surface. The terrifying aspect of the Crane Sect’s martial arts was now fully demonstrated by the middle-aged man... or more accurately, by his feet. Elusive, swift, and phantom-like in its omnipresence.
His absolute strength is far inferior to mine, but his Leg Skill must also be a True Skill! Furthermore, his legs are imbued with a mysterious vital energy that easily penetrates my body-toughening defenses!
Lu Yuan had experienced this mysterious vital energy from Lin Zhiquin and Qin Feng before. However, because he had always ’died’ so quickly in the past, he had never felt it as profoundly as he did now.
This vital energy is like an awl, possessing extrely strong penetrative power. It directly pierces my sowhat toughened flesh and blood, striking straight at my internal organs! I can already feel my internal organs rupturing and bleeding.
Forget it.
Lu Yuan took a deep breath and quickly closed his eyes.
Attempting to end the battle!
An invisible wave of Spiritual Power suddenly spread out, delicately blanketing Lu Yuan’s surroundings.
The middle-aged man’s speed is too great; my naked eyes can’t capture his movents. So, I’ll abandon my sight and try to perceive him entirely with my Spiritual Power.
The taut muscles all over his body quietly relaxed, undulating gently like waves stirred by the wind. Lu Yuan beca completely slack, as if he had entirely given up resisting.
