Sweeping both worlds: Starting from idealistic martial arts

Chapter 499 Cyber ​​Martial Arts 20777
Where did you hide Fang Can?

A cold, sharp voice reverberated through the void, and Liu Qingmeng and the others glared angrily at the sixth-level cultivator before them.

During the battle just now, the situation was so chaotic that Fang Can's body was moved during the fight.

"Hahaha, a lose-lose situation is better than a win-lose one. Since I can't get my hands on Lord Fang Can, then none of you can get your hands on him!"

Liu Zhuan spoke in a sweet, coquettish voice, but her words infuriated Ying Han and the others.

"We are both at the sixth level, differing only in quantity, not in essence." The sixth-level cultivator hiding Fang Can sneered.

"So perhaps we can't beat you, but when it comes to hiding things, with our interference, you won't be able to find the master again!"

Her words delighted the sixth-ranked members of her faction. Seeing that Liu Qingmeng and the other women wanted to reverse time to search for Fang Can's whereabouts, they immediately stepped in to stop them.

After all, destruction is much easier than tracing the source.

Under the interference of the Sixth Rank, time and space were disrupted in an instant, and cause and effect were misaligned, burying all clues pointing to Fang Can.

Furthermore, due to the simultaneous actions of numerous sixth-level cultivators, the cause and effect were too complex, and even the sixth-level cultivator who initially hid Fang Can was unable to find Fang Can's whereabouts.

Fang Can thus completely disappeared from the battle, and his disappearance rendered the battle that he had started meaningless to continue.

There were no real winners in this battle, but it left a knot among the many six-turners present, who exchanged glances and then went their separate ways.

In a secluded corner, where no one knew, Fang Can's sleeping figure lay dormant.

……

In 1943 of the new calendar, 95% of the new dynasty's personnel moved out of this region where time had accelerated, and the remaining 5% were neither able nor willing to manage the vast myriad realms.

Or rather, the people of the new dynasty who remained were unwilling to share their rights with all worlds.

In 1945, the new dynasty announced that the next 28,000 years would be governed by the people, and the previous barbaric and turbulent era would begin again.

If the myriad realms still maintained basic human rights under the control of the new dynasty, then with the removal of control over the myriad realms, morality has regressed to the primitive era of two thousand years ago.

No, we can't say it was the primitive era.

Because with the development of technology and martial arts, the exploitation of people has reached an extremely efficient level.

Compared to the chaotic battles of ancient times where knives clashed and blood flowed freely, the current system relies on institutions and rules to exploit people.

If we consider a world of extreme technological advancement coupled with a low standard of living as cyberpunk, then...

At that time, martial arts were greatly developed, while the people's living standards were low, which can be called cyber martial arts!
Those in power discovered that, compared to the machines they had painstakingly researched, the flesh and blood of martial artists were far more useful.

Whether it's the inexhaustible flow of blood and energy or the supercomputing-level thinking, there's no need to consider materialistic issues like heat dissipation; the martial artist's heart is an inexhaustible source of energy.

Under extreme pressure from higher-ups, blood-borne creatures, a mixture of flesh and machinery, began to emerge.

Initially, it relied on the electromechanical system powered by blood energy. Then, the strong tendons of martial artists transformed into the conveyor belts, and finally, the bones served as the deck of interstellar space.

Because of the almost limitless regenerative abilities of idealistic martial artists, organs can grow back immediately after being removed.

Therefore, in the early stages, everyone was happy to directly harvest organs in exchange for resources.

However, as time went on, more people were willing to have their organs harvested, and the price of organs from first-level martial artists gradually dropped.

The organ levels that those organizations and institutions require from external sources have gradually increased, from level one to level two, and then to level three and level four.

Then, cybernetic bodies made from the bodies of martial artists began to spread throughout society.

As long as a limb is implanted from a fifth-level martial artist, leaving only the brain intact, one can briefly experience power beyond their own realm.

There's no need to worry about using too much force and shattering your physical body.

Because when you purchase a limb, a portion of the heart image is built into it. You can use the heart image to protect the flesh that has not been replaced during exercise.

This type of prosthetic body is called the "Martial Body"!
With the implantation of high-level flesh and blood, a powerful force filled the user's mind, and the product became an instant hit upon its release.

However, in the shadows, news reports about using the "Martial Body" causing one's will to be influenced by a high-level expert within the flesh and blood, resulting in madness, were suppressed by the higher-ups.

Gradually, this kind of "martial body" began to become popular throughout the myriad worlds, and all sorts of martial arts "martial bodies" were developed.

Each type of [Martial Body] contains the original owner's inheritance and cultivation techniques, and different [Martial Bodies] can be adapted to different situations.

Military type...Civilian type...Special type...Special type...

Depending on the different categories such as combat, exploration, intelligence, and pioneering, different types of fifth-tier martial artist inheritance can be used.

With the rise of the "Martial Body," a combination of martial arts and technology, various sects and companies began to experiment with the bodies of martial artists equipped with this "Martial Body."

After testing, it was found that martial artists equipped with the specialized [Martial Body] completely outperformed the original martial artists in terms of manufacturing efficiency.

After martial arts bodies were integrated into society, everyone discovered that as long as they purchased a new martial arts body, their spirit could resonate with the will of the body's owner.

In other words, as long as you use the martial body long enough, you won't even need to practice martial arts; your understanding of martial arts will naturally improve.

Under the impact of this martial arts, all the martial arts training classes that were once flourishing everywhere went out of business.

Because you no longer need to be taught, you naturally gain this understanding while using your martial body, and you are stronger than others of the same level.

As we are both at the second level, the cultivation technique you painstakingly practiced for a year, I can naturally learn by simply purchasing a martial body, and I can even unleash the power of the third or fourth level using that martial body.

In the workplace, the application of martial arts is even more extensive.

If you're traveling, you can use a martial body with spatial inheritance; if you want to create a martial body, you can use creation inheritance; you can even stand still and watch the prosthetic arm separate from the body under the control of the mind to perform material manipulation.

It must be said that in the field of application, the technology of martial arts has influenced all aspects of the entire universe, completely integrated into life, and become a model of martial arts transforming life.

Almost everyone at the bottom of the myriad realms felt that their opportunity had arrived.

Those martial artists with mediocre talent who could never reach the fourth or fifth level of cultivation were overjoyed to have gained unprecedented power.

With widespread public demand, almost everyone now possesses a martial body, and various sects and companies have begun using martial bodies for production and manufacturing.

But soon, some voices were drowned out by the clamor of the masses.

Because those low-level martial artists who had not yet acquired martial bodies discovered that they were no longer needed!

All positions in those sects require specialized martial artists equipped with cybernetic bodies.

Before martial arts practitioners entered society, they only needed to be responsible for the needs of one position, so they only developed specialized inheritances for that position.

However, with the advancement of cybernetic technology, the skills required for each position have become increasingly comprehensive. One person may have to hold multiple positions simultaneously, and if a problem arises, they can switch to the corresponding cybernetic body for specialized modifications.

No matter how strong your abilities are as a third-level martial artist, I am a first-level martial artist who has prepared a full-body martial body for the fifth level. My efficiency in a day is a million times that of yours. How can you compete with me?

The fourth-level civil engineer helplessly watched as the first-level civil engineer, who was a hundred times younger than him, flattened a mountain after being equipped with a fifth-level martial body.

In order to survive, or rather, to integrate into this world, those martial artists who resisted cybernetic bodies were forced to accept the integration of their physical bodies into their lives.

If it were just that simple, it would be barely normal. But after the prosthetic body was fully integrated into life, a piece of news exploded across the myriad worlds.

Martial arts training can potentially lead to insanity! It can cause martial arts psychosis!

A martial artist's will is infused through their spirit. By using the flesh and blood of other martial artists for a long time, in addition to gaining their techniques and experience, they may also have their memories implanted.

As time went on, memories became completely confused, and the martial artist became a martial arts psychopath, falling into a killing frenzy.

This terrifying news, resembling possession, immediately ignited social media.

In an instant, countless people gave up using prosthetic bodies, wanting to return to normal life, and called on society to return to nature.

Unfortunately, the wheels of history will crush all those who stand in its way.

Those sects did not change anything after the news broke. In order to maintain their competitiveness, they still required that their recruitment be limited to people who had undergone body implantation.

In this situation, giving up one's martial arts skills is equivalent to giving up one's position.

If this is just a minor difficulty, then those who have returned to their daily lives find themselves somewhat unable to adapt to their smaller bodies.

Compared to using a fifth-level martial body to fly and escape into the ground, a lower-level body is too sluggish.

Moreover, after using the martial body, their spirits become overly dependent on it, leading to devastating damage to their will, a significant decrease in their martial arts aptitude, and almost severing their path to martial arts.

In a short time, the aftereffects of using the Martial Body began to appear on all martial artists. The lower the level of cultivation, the greater the dependence on the Martial Body after using it.

Within a few days, most of the martial artists who had chosen to give up reassembled their martial bodies and resumed their lives, even though prolonged use of their martial bodies could cause severe martial arts-related mental illness.

Gradually, within a few years, the myriad realms had completely merged with the martial arts psychopathology.

As time went on and investment in the research of martial bodies increased, various types of martial bodies began to be developed.

With almost all martial artists now possessing martial bodies, sects and companies have turned their attention to the lower-tier markets.

In the year 2414 of the new calendar, the first infant weapon was officially released.

This unique martial body, exclusively for babies from all realms, was snapped up as soon as it went on sale, becoming a life-giving booster for countless children who received parental sponsorship even before birth.

At the moment of birth, these babies have their hands and feet replaced, their skin replaced, and they possess a powerful five-turn body with terrifying strength.

In a short time, the average combat power of people in all realms began to develop rapidly. The only problem was the crazy decline in the average lifespan.

Yes, although combat power is increasing due to physical strength, life expectancy is decreasing.

Because everyone uses martial arts bodies, these people simply cannot concentrate on practicing martial arts.

Cultivation techniques may be learned through physical strength, but the realm of cultivation is something that physical strength cannot provide.

Because the more you use those physical stimuli to increase your cultivation level, the closer you get to martial arts psychosis.

As the level of civilization declines, life expectancy begins to drop significantly.

Soon, the average life expectancy dropped from 1000 years to 200 years. Many people died of old age before they even reached the first stage of cultivation because they relied too much on martial arts.

Since the martial body is directly peeled off from the body of a fifth-level martial artist.

The decrease in the number of fifth-level cultivators has led to a shortage of raw materials, which has directly resulted in a shortage of martial bodies, causing the price of martial bodies to rise.

It seems things are about to reach a dead end?

The major sects and companies were furious at the decline in average cultivation level and lifespan, as if the martial arts were about to destroy the civilization of the martial arts world.

Unfortunately, there are always more solutions than problems.

Faced with this method, the sect members came up with a brilliant idea: why don't we just synthesize them!
As everyone knows, martial artists are like human wish-granting machines; as long as they pay the price enough, nothing is impossible.

In the year 7253 of the New Calendar, a martial arts body called the Transmission Treasure was created.

This is a product specifically designed to improve one's cultivation level. As long as you use this product and pay a certain price, your power will increase like a rocket.

As for what price to pay? Naturally, it's everything I own!

Those low-level martial artists can receive the full power of a high-level martial artist who is about to die, as long as they are willing to sign the agreement.

The agreement clearly states that after the initiation, the martial artist will directly acquire the other party's realm. The only problem is that their lifespan will remain unchanged and they will never be able to advance any further.

But for those martial artists who don't intend to cultivate, this means there's absolutely no cost involved. It's like directly giving them the excitement of a fifth-level martial artist in their short lives, without having to worry about martial arts-related mental illness.

In return for the agreement, he would dedicate half of his life to the sect.

In the remainder of their lives, they live normal lives during the day, and at night, while they sleep, their limbs are painlessly dissected by the sect's assembly line and manufactured into martial bodies for sale.

In the final period of their lives, they need to sign an agreement once again to transfer their fifth-level cultivation to a new low-level martial artist.

Relying on the contract that allows the power to continue flowing even after a person dies, the society, which had been in decline, has been revitalized, and the sects no longer lack the raw materials for martial bodies.

After 10000 years into the new calendar, people at the bottom of society relied on changing their physical bodies and transitioning through different realms to live a relatively short but fulfilling life.

Those successors nurtured by major sects possess original flesh and blood, original realms, and long lifespans.

After all, the poor have too many temptations in this world, while only the rich can focus on martial arts training under the protection of a sect without being disturbed by the outside world.

Don't forget that before the new dynasty left, Ji Donglai had Fang Shuyue leave behind an Ascension Certificate every hundred years.

In this cyber martial arts world, only native martial artists born into wealthy families can compete for the Ascension Certificate.

Those lower-level people who have been infected with the Martial Body have no hope of breaking through to the sixth level.

Therefore, the sixth-level beings born in the myriad worlds every year are all beneficiaries supported by sects, and after becoming sixth-level beings, they have no intention of changing the structure of the myriad worlds.

Everything changed when the basement door was suddenly flung open!

In the year 20777 of the Gregorian calendar, a young girl accidentally stepped into this secret chamber that had been sealed for thousands of years.

From this day forward: Cyber ​​Martial Arts 20777 will be serialized in a grand manner!
