128: Using technology to prove the truth, an unprecedented path
Su Lei didn't answer, slowly assuming a starting stance.
Nine newly acquired Martial Skill memories flowed through his mind.
The elusive movement of [Spirit Snake Steps], the penetrating technique of [Piercing Aura Finger], the force-deflecting method of [Flowing Cloud Strength]...
"Begin!"
As soon as the Fourth-Stage Martial Artist finished speaking, he charged forward like a cannonball.
Before his punch even arrived, the violent air pressure already made it difficult for Su Lei to breathe.
If he took this punch head-on, it would be enough to smash him into a meat paste!
In the nick of time, Su Lei's body twisted eerily as if boneless, drifting back with the punch's wind like a falling leaf.
At the same time, his right hand, with fingers together like a sword, precisely aimed at a vital point on his opponent's wrist.
The burly man felt a numb sensation in his right wrist, and his entire arm instantly went limp and dropped.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, followed by a sneer, as his powerful Qi and blood surged into his arm like a tide, instantly clearing the blocked acupoint.
But this brief interval had given Su Lei a chance to catch his breath.
The burly man changed his Move mid-fight, his broad and open punching style suddenly shifting.
His fists transformed into a sky full of afterimages, each strike carrying the power to split mountains and rocks, blasting forward.
Su Lei remained expressionless, changing his fingers to a palm, and with each contact, he channeled most of his opponent's force into the ground, causing the floor beneath his feet to crack layer by layer.
"Bang!"
A whip kick swept in, and Su Lei hastily leaned back using the [Iron Plank Bridge] Cultivation Technique.
The wind from the kick grazed the tip of his nose, shearing off a lock of his hair.
He seized the opportunity to roll, executing a [Ground Boxing] Move, his legs scissoring towards his opponent's supporting leg.
The Fourth-Stage Martial Artist sneered, not dodging or evading at all.
Su Lei's kick struck his opponent's leg, only to send a jarring shock through his own shins, threatening to shatter them.
This was the disparity of absolute strength—even the most exquisite Move was futile without the support of power.
"It ends here." The Fourth-Stage Martial Artist grinned ferociously, raising his foot and stomping down on Su Lei like a mountain.
At the critical moment of life and death, the light in Su Lei's eyes flared.
He suddenly abandoned all defense, his hands dancing like butterflies flitting through flowers—this was the [Thousand Illusory Hands] obtained on the nineteenth floor!
Nine Martial Skills perfectly merged at this moment.
His hands transformed into dozens of afterimages, each precisely pointing at a vital acupoint on his opponent's sole.
"Puff, puff, puff..."
Amidst a series of muffled thuds, the burly man's body suddenly stiffened, his knees crashing uncontrollably onto the floor!
Su Lei's arms trembled slightly from overexertion, but his gaze remained sharp as a blade.
The next moment, his figure blurred, his right hand with five fingers together, transforming his palm into a blade, striking out like a clap of thunder!
"Ten Steps, One Kill · Instantaneous Slash!"
Without any enhancements, yet carrying a battle-hardened killing intent, it precisely cut into the Fourth-Stage Martial Artist's temple!
Boom!
Nine layers of superimposed hidden force quietly erupted.
The burly Martial Artist's pupils contracted violently, freezing in place with disbelief.
"Bang!"
His massive body crashed to the ground.
Su Lei staggered back, looking at his fractured right hand, and couldn't help but show a wry smile.
Such a weak physique, unable to even withstand his own Martial Skills... The next moment, three gilded treasure chests appeared before him.
Su Lei's gaze couldn't help but drift towards the Cultivation Technique treasure chest, lingering there for a long time.
As long as he chose it, he would be able to strengthen his physique, his Qi and blood would surge, and he would end this way of fighting on the edge of a knife... But when he recalled the scene of the old man on the hundredth floor effortlessly moving the power of heaven and earth, his eyes became firm again.
Since he had chosen this path, he would see it through to the end.
Even if he failed, he would have no regrets.
One could only say... he was nothing more than that.
Su Lei extended his intact left hand and pressed it onto the Martial Skill treasure chest without hesitation.
The moment the treasure chest opened, a Dark blue light entered his glabella.
A moment later, Su Lei suddenly froze.
This newly acquired Martial Skill was named "Void Tempering True Understanding · Incomplete Volume."
Its grade was unknown, and its origin was unknown.
Completely different from the concepts of traditional Martial Skill Moves, it did not focus on form, technique, or momentum, and it didn't even have any specific Moves.
The only key was how to Cultivate the "Mind's Eye" to perceive every weak point of an opponent.
Su Lei silently digested this peculiar Martial Skill, a look of surprise slowly appearing on his face.
If it was truly as described, he wouldn't need brute force; as long as he found that "point," even the smallest amount of power could leverage heaven and earth!
"Next, I should be facing opponents of the Martial Master level..."
He took a deep breath, dragging his injured body towards the stairs, his steps faltering, but his eyes growing firmer...
Outside the Trial Tower, everyone gathered around the monitoring equipment, their expressions grave.
"There's only one last chance left; if he still can't pass..."
Xiao Yuwei's eyes grew colder and colder, faintly suppressing her anger.
"Why haven't we figured out a way to gain control of the Trial Tower yet?"
Liu Hongyan operated quickly with both hands, then her eyes suddenly lit up.
"It's been analyzed! There will be an option to withdraw when clearing the hundredth and two hundredth floors! But..."
Xiao Yuwei asked in a deep voice, "But what?"
Liu Hongyan swallowed, and said with difficulty, "The guardian of the hundredth floor... is a Great Grandmaster."
This word struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer.
The monitoring room immediately fell silent, even breathing became barely audible.
The faces of several Martial Alliance presidents instantly turned pale, some even unconsciously taking half a step back.
Xiao Yuwei's pupils constricted slightly.
She knew better than anyone what the words Great Grandmaster meant.
It represented the pinnacle of currently known Martial Dao,
a terrifying existence capable of changing the strategic landscape with their own power!
The scene of Lei Mietian effortlessly defeating ten Grandmasters was still vivid in their minds.
After that battle, the Lei Family began to expand its influence unscrupulously,
while the Federation could only secretly accumulate strength and seek countermeasures...
Although Su Lei's strength was at the peak among Grandmasters, facing an opponent of this level...
Everyone's expressions grew worse and worse.
Xiao Yuwei walked towards the Trial Tower without saying a word.
The next moment—
Drip! Drip! Drip!
A piercing alarm suddenly blared throughout the entire base.
On the holographic map, a conspicuous red dot was rapidly approaching Kunlun Main Peak.
"Energy reading has exceeded the threshold!"
"Confirming identity... It's Lei Jinghong!"
Xiao Yuwei turned sharply, walking quickly to the display screen.
In the distant skyline, a white figure was seen treading through the air.
Each step seemed to be on an invisible staircase, his robes fluttering, like a banished immortal.
What was most alarming was the Qingfeng Sword at his waist,
even from several kilometers away, one could feel the terrifying Sword Intent contained within it.
"Activate Level One Combat Readiness!" Xiao Yuwei's voice was as cold as ice, "Terrestrial Particle Cannon charging, all Grandmasters in position."
Lei Jinghong stood in mid-air, his white robe flapping in the mountain wind.
He looked down at the heavily prepared crowd below, his gaze finally resting on Xiao Yuwei, a meaningful curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"Xiao Yuwei, hand over my brother."
"This is the final ultimatum."
