Eternal Night

Chapter 73 Summary and Strengthening

Wu Xianxiao took a nap before waking up.

Although he was in a coma for 152 days, his mental state was extremely unstable after waking up, and he was almost mentally exhausted, so he slept for another day and night.

As for food, there is no need to worry. Carbon-based nanounits can be converted into various nutrients consumed by the body. It’s just that in the past, there were very few carbon-based nanounits and they could not be consumed. But now there are many. Although it is a bit wasteful, it is no problem to consume them in a short period of time.

Now the medical base station still has more than 2,100 carbon-based nano units. Wu Xianxiao and Jiujiu consume only about 0.8 to 1 unit of carbon-based nano units a day. This is because Wu Xianxiao's own consumption is extremely high. Otherwise, if it were an ordinary person, 0.23 units would be consumed a day.

More than two thousand one hundred, if we don’t consider future medical problems, it will be enough to consume more than two thousand one hundred days!
However, it is naturally impossible for Wu Xianxiao to stay in Gaia for more than 2,100 days. This is just a way of eating and waiting to die. He is also a loser who has given up completely.

First of all, the negative backlash of his mind was still a fatal threat. In the previous battle with the voice-hearer body, the rate of his negative backlash exceeded 30%. At that time, he was almost inhuman. Even if he managed to suppress the negative backlash of his mind afterwards, it almost made his sleepless spirit run out of energy. He had been sleeping for more than a hundred days. If it were not for the mark of death and rebirth given by Xu Shilan, he would never have woken up.

Therefore, even if he only wanted to survive, he had to continue to become stronger, otherwise what awaited him would be a life worse than death.

Secondly, he wanted to obtain a level six shelter, or even a higher level shelter. He wanted to say thank you to Xu Shilan and also to Yamade!
And if there really is an afterlife, he... wants to go and explore it!
Finally, the Mother of No Birth...

It is too early to think so much now, but Wu Xianxiao is definitely not a person who will give up. He is narrow-minded, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he will never give up. After suffering such a big loss and making such a great sacrifice, if he only thwarted the plan of the Mother of No Birth to enter Gaia, it would be too much of a humiliation!
Therefore, no matter what, he will continue to move forward, strive to build more shelters, and then become stronger and move deeper into the dream world!

However, the more important issue now is to first absorb and summarize the gains after the battle with the Mother of No Birth, and then work hard to improve one's own strength to the current limit. This is the most important thing.

because……

In the Northern Song Dynasty dream world of Clay Buddha Yaksha, one hundred and fifty-two days have passed!
If any shelter has not been guarded for more than thirty days, it will be detected by weirdos, monsters, nightmares, or other things. Among them, nightmares of level two and above can come to Gaia through the shelter.

So when Wu Xianxiao heard that one hundred and fifty-two days had passed, his first reaction was a negative backlash in his mind, and his second reaction was that he was penetrated by the nightmare of the Clay Buddha Yaksha's dream world. To put it simply, he wondered why he was still alive?

It would be fine if there were negative backlashes and death recurrence, but why hasn't there been any nightmares penetrating into this baseline reality Zero Point Seven Dream World?
Could it be that some powerful being from a lower-baseline reality was hiding, waiting for him to penetrate and then control him?
Wu Xianxiao didn’t know, but he couldn’t rashly return to the Clay Buddha Yaksha dream world. He had to adjust his own condition to the best and integrate his strength to the best before he could go back.

"There are four pieces of Huanglian fragments in total."

Wu Xianxiao cleaned up the battlefield and the first things he obtained were three pieces of Coptis chinensis fragments that had penetrated along with the voice-hearer body. Together with the one he already had, there were now four Coptis chinensis fragments that had been judged by the main brain to be usable as fantasy objects.

When Wu Xianxiao put the four pieces of Coptis chinensis fragments together, all of them actually merged and condensed into each other like liquid, and finally he obtained a piece of Coptis chinensis fragment that looked darker in color and slightly larger in size.

"Huanglian fragments."

"…After Yin Zi escaped from the body, his body transformed into five lotuses, simulating the five underlying structures of the Heavenly Dao, the Buddha Realm, the Prison of Sin, the Void, and the Human World, and eventually became the Vacuum Homeland. Among them, the Yellow Lotus is the control center of the Human World, and has the great power to project the world of living beings."

"The holder will unilaterally see through illusions above the 0.7 limit of the baseline reality, reduce the possibility of reverse perception of illusions above the 0.6 limit of the baseline reality, and have no effect on illusions below the 0.6 limit. When multiple holders are held, the effect will be enhanced."

This effect is much stronger than that of a single piece of Coptis chinensis fragment. The introduction of a single piece is "The holder will unilaterally see through illusions above the limit of 0.8 of the baseline reality, and it will be ineffective against illusions below the limit of 0.8. When multiple pieces are held, the effect will be enhanced." But now, not only can it unilaterally see through 0.7 of the baseline reality, but it can also reduce the reverse perception of illusions by 0.6. This effect is already very powerful.

It can be said that this is the greatest gain after fighting with the voice-hearer body.

Wu Xianxiao still tied the Coptis chinensis fragment with a rope and put it around his neck, then he looked at his personal information panel.

His progress in Chinese martial arts was great, his Hua Jin had reached 72.8%, and he was not far from the great success of Hua Jin. But the real surprise was his Tiger Demon Skill, which had reached 97.61%, the pinnacle, and only less than 3% was left to the last stage of Ultimate Manifestation of Divinity.

Wu Xianxiao decided to practice the Tiger Demon Art to the ultimate level of manifestation of holiness. Although he was not sure, he had a hunch that when the Tiger Demon Art reached the ultimate level of manifestation of holiness, this art would undergo a qualitative change.

At the same time, he planned to start practicing the Iron Refining Record. This set of skills was obtained by Amade using the designated reward. It was the original Iron Refining Record. Before, because he was in a hurry to rush to the Peace Hotel Dream World, he did not practice this set of skills. But now he has time. Wu Xianxiao plans to practice it to at least the entry threshold, and then consider entering the Clay Buddha Yaksha Dream World. In the following time, Wu Xianxiao began to practice the national martial arts Tiger Demon Skill and Iron Refining Record in Gaia.

The progress of practicing the Tiger Demonic Skill solely by training or even fighting methods was very slow. After several days in a row, there was not even a 0.01% improvement in a single day, which made Wu Xianxiao very distressed.

After doing this for four or five days in a row, he decided to stimulate the negativity in his mind little by little.

After so many battles, he also discovered that the fastest way to improve the Tiger Demon Power is in a life-and-death battle. Apart from that, the fastest improvement is when there is a negative backlash.

Sure enough, when he entered the controllable demonic possession (10% negative mental backlash rate), every time he performed a set of Tiger Demon Kung Fu, his progress bar began to grow rapidly, and even increased by about 0.5% in a day!
According to this progress, it would take a little more than a week to practice the Tiger Demon Art to the highest level of saintliness.

During the days of practicing the Tiger Demonic Skill, Wu Xianxiao was also summarizing and recalling the scene of his previous battle with the seven warriors in front of the Peace Hotel. What impressed him the most was the "intention".

Starting from Baturu, to the old eunuch, to Du Xinwu and Li Shuwen, these four people all had intentions, and when they attacked, they gave Wu Xianxiao a strange feeling.

Just in terms of physical fitness, he can beat all these people. You know, there is a saying in Chinese martial arts that being three points higher is the limit. How much better is he than these people by more than three points?

Three times higher is an understatement!
But he was first injured by the old eunuch, and then seriously injured by Du Xinwu and Li Shuwen. In the end, Sun Lutang did not take action, but if Sun Lutang could still maintain his martial arts mind, I am afraid he might be able to use his Gang Jin!
This kind of intention is very important for Chinese martial arts.

Although it is not that mysterious, it is nothing more than the intention cultivated over a long period of time, but with or without this intention, the combat power that can be exerted is a qualitative change.

This battle gave Wu Xianxiao the feeling that he was like a child holding a huge hammer, while warriors like Li Shuwen were the ones who had truly honed their martial arts.

"I'm going to start exercising my will, too."

Wu Xianxiao had this realization when he was practicing the Tiger Demon Skill.

He divided his combat power into two different parts. One is hard power, which includes paper strength, Chinese martial arts, human-immortal martial arts, and even controllable demonic possession.

The second is soft power, including the ability to fight on the spot, coping experience, finding flaws, and having a stable mentality, etc. These all belong to soft power.

Concentrating his martial arts spirit is also a part of enhancing soft power, and it is very likely to greatly enhance soft power.

There are many kinds of intentions. Fist intention, palm intention, knife intention, and sword intention are all considered intentions. In addition, there is murderous intention, madness intention, chivalrous intention, or intention for family and country, intention for revolution, intention for fighting, and of course, the intention for invincibility is also among them.

Wu Xianxiao must choose an intention, practice it often, remember it forever, and implement it into his boxing, thoughts, and actions, so as to achieve the unity of knowledge and action. Over time, he will naturally have this intention, and with the passage of time, as the things he does become bigger and more profound, this intention will become stronger, even enough to feed back into his boxing skills and strength. At that time, even if his intention is not an invincible intention, it will make no difference.

Unity of knowledge and action!

"So...what should I choose?"

While practicing the Tiger Demon Skill, Wu Xianxiao was thinking about what kind of intention he wanted, but he couldn't make up his mind for a moment. Claw intention and palm intention were the most suitable for him at the moment, but he felt that they did not suit his wishes, so he decided to put them aside for the time being.

Eight days later, Wu Xianxiao finally mastered the last bit of Tiger Demonic Art to its peak proficiency. At the moment he reached that level, the sleepless consciousness in his mind suddenly shone brightly, giving Wu Xianxiao a feeling of transition from illusion to reality...

"Fuck me!"

Wu Xianxiao suddenly saw a ray of light coming out from between his eyebrows and then standing in front of him.

At this moment, the sleepless spiritual consciousness that the Tiger Demon practiced actually turned from virtual to real, and became the light that can be seen in the material world! ?
