Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

Chapter 8 This time I cheated

[One day, you came out to relax. While resting in the park, you happened to see Luo Hua about to jump into the lake. You saved him. Luo Feng rushed back and learned about this and was very grateful to you.]

In January 2057, you returned to the wilderness. This time, you no longer engaged in a frenzied killing spree, but instead focused on honing your agility and marksmanship...

[Not long after, in August, Luo Feng unexpectedly became the Supervisor of the Jiangnan Base City of the Extreme Martial Arts School, and drove a dark blue fighter plane to the wilderness to pick you up.]

You were shocked, not only because he was flying a fighter jet, but also because to become the Inspector of Jiangnan Base City, one must be at least War God-level, and you are only a high-level general.

In 2058, news suddenly spread that Luo Feng was suspected of having passed away.

On September 9th, the official website of the Extreme Martial Arts School suddenly released an announcement, announcing the death of the God of War Luo Feng.

【For some reason, you instinctively don't believe it. 】

After Luo Feng's "death," his family was inexplicably harassed. This was clearly revenge from his enemies.

Luo Feng is not only your good brother, but he has also helped you. Unable to tolerate this behavior, you intervened, exposed the matter directly, and reported it to the Extreme Martial Arts School headquarters.

Luo Feng's family was inexplicably harassed. Your report eventually alerted Hong. Under Hong's orders, Luo Feng's family's lives finally improved.

In December, Luo Feng returns and kills the vulture Li Yao. He expresses his gratitude to you for taking care of his family and gives you a plant spirit.

[Under his guidance, your "World Destruction" spearmanship successfully broke through to the second level.]

You consumed the Plant Spirit and were promoted to the Intermediate War God level. You were very excited... However, you never once questioned where you had obtained the Plant Spirit.

[Killing in the Wilderness...]

[Simulation ends! 】

call……

This simulation seems a bit long!
Yang Wu stood up from the sofa and took a long breath. Looking at these simulation processes, he somehow felt that there was a lot of sarcasm between the lines.

Didn't think much about it.

Yang Wu carefully counted his gains: the subtle level of body movement, the second level of the "World-Destroying Spear Technique," and the second plant spirit...

Overall, the gains from this simulation are quite good.

Then he turned his attention to the withdrawal options.

【Simulation ends, please select.】

[1. Three years of martial arts enlightenment.]

[My experience of spiritual practice over the past two or three years.]

[3. Opportunities in the past three years (random)]

……

"Choice one, martial arts enlightenment."

Yang Wu skipped option three. The spirits of plants and trees were certainly attractive, especially for him who had already tried it. The spirits of plants and trees did have a fatal attraction.

But taking advantage of opportunities is a matter of luck, and he is unwilling to be a gambler when there are no other safer options.

Then he decisively eliminated option two and directly chose martial arts enlightenment.

The experience in option two, in terms of improving combat experience, strengthening combat awareness, and enhancing mental state and will, is currently of little use to Yang Wu.

At the moment Yang Wu made his choice, his insights into various spear and body techniques suddenly appeared in his mind, as if he had experienced them personally, without any sense of incongruity.

This, the feeling of cheating...

That's cool!

However, it is a little regrettable.

In the simulation, Yang Wu purchased the first three levels of the "World Destruction" gun technique, and before the end of the simulation, he had mastered the "World Destruction" to the second level.

However, in reality, he did not have the original version of the "World Destruction" gun technique. Therefore, his attempt to get it for free failed.

"Enter the micro-level body technique!"

Yang Wu was eager to try it out, so he simply practiced the technique in the narrow bedroom.

On Earth, dodging skills are divided into basic level, subtle level, perfect level, and artistic conception level.

Among them, when the body skills reach the micro level, it means that the warrior can use the smallest range to avoid attacks and achieve the most efficient avoidance.

It means that the warrior has extremely subtle control over strength and body, and can make the most exquisite dodges at the lowest cost. All kinds of movements and evasions are as if calculated by a computer.

However, it is extremely difficult for a warrior to comprehend the subtle level of body movements through training alone, because ordinary combat training has no effect at all.

Only warriors who are truly talented or have gone through a lot of life and death trials can more easily comprehend the subtle level of body movements.

Even among the warriors at the general level, many have not reached the subtle level of body movement. In real combat, physical fitness is only one factor, while body movement, gun skills, and awareness all play a very important role.

……

"Try it, and sense the energy of the universe again."

Yang Wu stopped demonstrating his skills, jumped onto the bed and sat cross-legged, ready to try again to see if he could successfully sense the energy of the universe.

In the simulation, Yang Wu successfully sensed the energy of the universe and cultivated genetic energy tonight.

Of course, his ability to sense things so quickly was definitely due to the influence of the spirits of plants and trees.

After taking the spirit of plants, the surging vitality energy flows through the body, making the body's cells more sensitive to the cosmic energy.

That's why he was able to succeed in his cultivation in just one night.

From the time humans are born to the time they first cultivate genetic energy, there is a period of more than ten years or even longer in between when the body has never absorbed genetic energy and the cells are always in a state of hunger.

Therefore, the first successful practice will result in the most terrifying improvement in strength.

For the second and even subsequent practice, the body cells have already been well fed and the appetite is obviously not as large as the first time.

It takes years of continuous practice for the genetic energy in cells to gradually increase.

At the same time, the improvement in punching strength after the first training can more or less represent a person's aptitude.

An increase of 300 kg in punching power is quite common among martial artists.

The punching power increased by 600 kilograms, which is considered quite good.

If you gain more than 1000 kilograms, you are considered an elite among humans.

Only those who gain more than 2000 kilograms can be considered human geniuses.

Yang Wu in the simulation was able to increase his punching strength by more than 3000 kilograms after his first successful practice. This was not because he was a genius, but based on his physical fitness as a high-level general.

Strictly speaking, his qualifications are only slightly better than those of ordinary warriors, and cannot be considered excellent.

You know, those amazing geniuses, when they are in the stage of becoming quasi-warriors, can increase their punching power by more than 2000 kilograms after practicing genetic energy for the first time.

And in a base city with a population of hundreds of millions, there will be one or two such geniuses every year.

We need to look at the bigger picture. Compared with the universe, the Earth is nothing!
Although this is true, the key point is that Yang Wu is still at the bottom of the earth, and it is still too early for him to leave the global village.

We must take one step at a time and stand at the top of the earth first.

"this time……"

"It's cheating indeed."

Striking a posture with five hearts facing the sky, Yang Wu adjusted his movements according to the familiar memories in his mind, and then began to adjust his breathing.
