The Fourth Disaster: People become gods through high martial arts and gaming

Chapter 212 Body Strengthening Secret Technique, Second Level

"fly?"

The martial artists present, including Meng Wei, looked at Lin Qi with astonishment and doubt, wondering if Lin Qi had said something wrong.

To put it bluntly, a martial artist is just someone who is stronger. Even a superhuman martial artist at the Bone Forging Realm cannot fly.

If they really wanted to fly, at most they would be like the Feathered Clan, with a pair of wings that allow them to glide or hover for a short period of time, but they would not have the ability to truly fly.

Before Meng Wei and the others could raise their questions, Lin Qi took a few quick steps, rose into the air, and moved nimbly through the air, even creating several afterimages in mid-air. Then, he stood in the air above everyone's heads, quietly watching them.

"This is the flight technique you will be learning, which is also the signature high-level martial art of our Obsidian Martial Arts School, 'Surprising Swan'."

The people present seemed not to hear Lin Qi's words at all; they just stared wide-eyed at Lin Qi, who was standing in mid-air, their mouths agape.

"Flying! The museum master can actually fly!"

"I must be seeing things, the museum owner can actually stand in mid-air!"

"Transcending mid-air? This is actually a martial art?"

The martial artists, including Xia Ling, who had some knowledge of the world, were so shocked by Lin Qi's continuous treading of air in mid-air that words could not describe it. It was as if their understanding of the world had been completely shattered.

Previously, the Lightning Palm technique taught at the Obsidian Martial Arts School, combined with mental secret arts, was already exaggerated enough to directly create a railgun with one's hands. I never thought that martial arts techniques could be used in this way.

Now tell them that people can actually fly.

If I told this to anyone else, who would believe me?

But the truth was right before their eyes, leaving them no choice but to believe it.

As everyone fell into silence and shock, Lin Qi descended step by step from mid-air, as if there were invisible steps in the air. The shockwaves from each step resonated in everyone's hearts, making them yearn for him.

"Next, I will teach you this martial art step by step, and your daily lessons will be training in this martial art. I will set aside one or two hours each day to guide you." As Lin Qi spoke, he took out the martial art manual "Jing Hong" that he had already copied and distributed it to everyone.

As a high-level martial art fused from the system, Jinghong is easy for players to learn, but teaching it to others will cause many problems under normal circumstances.

Fortunately, he had mastered the skill "Jinghong" to perfection, and had no doubts about its cultivation and use. Teaching him was no longer a problem. In particular, his current visualization technique of stellar explosion had reached 85% proficiency, making him incredibly sharp-minded. He could even clearly sense everything within a radius of 100 meters, even with his eyes closed.

With this kind of spiritual support, he can clearly sense the flow of qi and energy in the opponent's body within ten meters. If any problems arise, he can correct them immediately. He is definitely better at teaching than players with more experience in teaching.

This was something Lin Qi had planned long ago.

The martial arts school's defense force must have a certain level of combat strength, but the school currently has too few local martial artists, and the strongest among them is only Meng Wei, who has reached the intermediate level. Even if Luo Qi repairs the B4-level armor, this level of strength is still insufficient.

However, if the Golden Desert Eagle and the Soaring Swan are added, then even a beginner-level martial artist would have the power to threaten high-level monsters. In this way, whether it is daily guarding of the martial arts school or guarding Crimson Moon Mountain, it will not be a problem.

Once Meng Wei and the others learn the "Soaring Swallow" technique, even if they follow the transport convoy to the front lines, their ability to survive will likely be stronger than that of ordinary Bone Forging Realm experts. It can be said that as long as they don't encounter flying monsters, they can basically escape.

"It's a pity I'm not at the Bone Forging Realm yet, otherwise it wouldn't be impossible for me to get rid of the City of Light directly." Lin Qi glanced at his attribute panel and sighed inwardly.

Host: Lin Qi.

Age: 25.

Administrator authority: Level 1.

Authority level: Level 2 preferential admission authority.

Martial Arts Level: High-level Martial Artist.

Strength: 5226.7 kg. (Standard for a beginner-level Bone Forging Realm martial artist: 6000 kg)

Speed: 72.4 meters per second. (Standard for a beginner-level Bone Forging Realm martial artist: 80 meters per second)
Internal organs: 72.7% of internal training and strengthening has been completed.

Training method: Startling Breathing Method (Mastery of the second level of the Six Forms of Ghostly Light 15%, Mastery of the second level of Cloud and Mist Transformation 17%, Mastery of the third level of Reverse Star 21%)

In terms of physical fitness, he has now surpassed high-level martial artists in every aspect. Without undergoing a preliminary strengthening of his entire body's bones, he is already close to the level of a Bone Forging Realm martial artist.

With the perfected Thunder Palm and the perfected Amazing Strike Buff, his actual strength has exceeded 6000 kilograms, and his speed has exceeded 80 meters per second.

With the added power of his already proficient Reverse Star Hand and the initial strength boost from the club, his explosive force of nearly fifty tons was in no way inferior to that of a mid-stage Bone Forging Realm martial artist.

If he were to become a martial artist at the initial stage of the Bone Forging Realm and complete a full-body bone tempering process, his strength would probably not be much weaker than Elder Liu's.

City of Light, Martial Arts Association.

Inside a magnificent conference hall on the top floor, more than ten human warriors at the Bone Forging Realm sat around a round table, each with a gloomy expression.

As the pillar of the human race in the City of Light, Liu Tianzong's death has reduced the overall strength of the human race by at least half. They have instantly gone from being a relatively strong ordinary race in the City of Light to a race that is not much stronger than a weak race. Their treatment in the city has been declining drastically.

"The city's Light Chasing Conference has decided that a top-tier Bone Forging Realm expert from the Ape Clan will be sent to guard Cloud Mist Town with me. In addition, 30% of the residential areas in the city center will have to be vacated. You all need to arrange the relocation of the personnel," an elderly man in his sixties said with a sense of helplessness.

The other Bone Forging Realm martial artists present remained silent after hearing this.

The city center of the City of Light is arguably the place with the most concentrated energy. Children who simply live in the city center, without much training, can easily become quasi-martial artists before adulthood. Any child with talent and the willingness to work hard is destined to become a martial artist and has the opportunity to enter the genius training camp.

Over the years, as the human race has weakened, the area in the city center where they can live has become smaller and smaller. At the beginning, they could occupy more than one-tenth of the central area of ​​the City of Light, but now they only have one or two percent left.

If this area were reduced by another 30%, it would be good enough to house tens of thousands of people. After that, it would be much more difficult to cultivate geniuses who could get into the genius training camp.

If you can't get into the genius training camp, the difficulty of reaching the Bone Forging Realm will increase several times over.

"Elder Xiang, Elder Liu was only one step away from that level, how could he have died like this?" A woman in her late twenties, with shoulder-length hair, bright eyes and white teeth, wearing a light blue leather jacket with a slightly open collar, revealing a few faded claw marks on her collarbone, stood up and asked the old man directly.

“Moon Butterfly, I know it’s hard for you to accept, especially since Old Liu was your mentor. You know how strong Old Liu was.” The old man looked at the woman and said with great regret, “But the monster attack in that battle was too sudden, and the number of high-level lords was beyond imagination. There were eight of them. Not only did Old Liu die, but even the deputy city lord of Wanxing City, who was stationed there with us, lost an arm and was seriously injured and almost died. More than ten high-level Bone Forging Realm cultivators were also killed. If the city lord of Wanxing City hadn’t been nearby and rushed over immediately, no one in the entire town would have survived.”

"Eight high-ranking lords attacking at the same time?" The woman was also shocked upon hearing this.

Although the fortified towns established on the front lines of the wilderness have always been fiercely contested, it is already very rare to encounter two high-level lords in a normal attack, so they are usually guarded by two top-level Bone Forging Realm experts.

An attack led by eight high-ranking lords was almost as powerful as a monster horde attacking a city.

"Although this monster tide hasn't fully formed yet, the overall strength of the monsters far surpasses previous tides. Now, not only are the city lords of our five cities taking turns to guard the front lines, but we've also contacted all the cities in this region for support to jointly combat this monster tide." The old man looked at the woman and said earnestly, "Although Yue Die only graduated from the genius training camp this year, you became a Bone Forging Realm martial artist before graduation, and after graduation, you're not far from the mid-stage of the Bone Forging Realm. You're considered one of the most talented martial artists of our human race in recent years." "Now that Old Liu is gone, and I'm getting old, let alone reaching that level, even becoming a top-tier Bone Forging Realm expert is difficult. Now we can only rely on you. You can't let Old Liu's departure discourage you."

"Whether you want to avenge Old Liu or take back what we've lost, you must first become a top-tier Bone Forging Realm expert."

As the old man began to comfort the woman, the disheartened Bone Forging Realm warriors present all looked at her, their eyes now showing a glimmer of hope.

Bear Moon Butterfly!
This extraordinary woman, who was fortunate enough to be admitted to the genius training camp, surprised many Bone Forging Realm martial artists at the time. Not only was Xiong Yuedie from an ordinary family in the city of Chasing Light, with no cultivation resources, but what was even more surprising was that Xiong Yuedie had not received any training during high school. It was only after being admitted to an ordinary university in Chasing Light and being introduced to the martial arts club in her sophomore year that she began to truly train.

It wasn't until a little over a year after graduating from university that he not only became a martial artist but also got into a genius training camp, his rise was incredible.

After entering the Genius Training Camp, Liu Tianzong personally took her as a disciple. Now, Xiong Yuedie's strength is not much inferior to those of them who are at the mid-stage of the Bone Forging Realm.

With such terrifying talent, even if he doesn't become a city lord in the future, becoming a top-tier Bone Forging Realm martial artist will be no problem at all.

"Now that Old Liu is gone, after you complete the transportation task assigned by the association, I plan to swallow my pride and take you deeper into the heritage ruins next time. You should prepare well during this time." The old man looked at Xiong Yuedie and said seriously, "No matter what, I will take you into the depths of the ruins. What you get there will depend entirely on yourself."

"Elder Xiang, what about the newly appointed headmaster of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy? I heard he has exceptional potential, and his talent is definitely no less than mine." Xiong Yuedie couldn't help but mention Lin Qi, the newly appointed human expert at the Bone Forging Realm. It was she who invited Lin Qi to join the hunting team, hoping that the human race could have another pillar.

"Him?" The old man frowned slightly and said helplessly, "I can't help him. There are too many people eyeing him now, or rather, too many people eyeing the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy. The Crimson Moon Town he established was originally a thorn in the side of Wanxing City. It's already good that Wanxing City hasn't caused him any trouble. Now, it's been revealed that Crimson Moon Town contains a small energy vein. Without Old Liu in charge, those forces in the city can't stand it, especially since Wanxing City hasn't made any reaction. Those forces are even more determined to take Crimson Moon Town into their hands."

"We are already struggling to protect Yunxia Town. If we get involved in Chiyue Town's affairs, we may not even be able to protect Yunxia Town."

"Are we just going to abandon this?" Xiong Yuedie found it hard to accept.

Although the Obsidian Martial Arts School established by Lin Qi accepts people of all races, its disciples are mainly humans. Moreover, as the reputation of the Obsidian Martial Arts School grows, more and more human nomads in the wild are joining it, which can be seen as a way to strengthen the human race.

If we ignore this, it would be tantamount to abandoning these human beings.

"Of course we won't ignore it," the old man said slowly. "Although those forces are all targeting him, and even planning to take action against the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy to clean up those disciples who have gone out, our human race is not so easy to mess with. We may not be able to help with the matter in Crimson Moon Town, and it's not easy for us Bone Forging Realm cultivators to take action around the city, but I have already asked your third senior brother to organize manpower to teach these forces that want to extend their claws a lesson. Don't think that just because our human race has lost Old Liu, we can bully them at will!"

"Is Third Senior Brother leading the team?" Xiong Yuedie felt much more at ease after hearing this.

Her teacher only accepted four disciples in total, and she was the fourth. Her third senior brother, Wu Zhuoqun, was accepted as a disciple in the wild. He was already over twenty-five years old when he was accepted, so he missed the opportunity to enter the genius training camp.

However, thanks to their talent, the three brothers Wu Zhuoqun, even without the resources and training of the genius training camp, are already high-level martial artists at the age of 28. They are only one step away from becoming Bone Forging Realm martial artists. With the help of B6-level armor and weapons, they are among the top five experts in the entire Light Chasing City garrison. They can compete with high-level monsters one-on-one.

If Wu Zhuoqun leads the team to deal with those forces, those forces will likely stop engaging in these pointless petty tricks.

Obsidian Martial Arts School, the sun is setting.

In the quiet underground confinement room, three figures, each over two meters tall, slowly appeared.

"Damn it! That leopard is such a coward! I only sucked its blood a few times, I didn't actually eat it, yet it ran more than 200 kilometers into the wilderness!" Lin Xinyao said angrily.

"Fan Chen, what do we do now?" Li Tianxing said with a headache. "That location is surrounded by boss monsters, and high-level monsters are everywhere. With our current training method only reaching the proficiency level, we can't even get close to that leopard."

Now, through the blood of the two-horned cheetah, the three of them have finally mastered the second level of the training method. They are now not far from having the physical qualities of a high-level martial artist. It can be said that as long as they drink a few dozen more mouthfuls of blood from the two-horned cheetah, they will be able to become high-level martial artists and leave the experts of other teams far behind.

“At that distance, we probably can’t manage it on our own,” Lu Fanchen sighed and suggested, “If we still want to exploit this wilderness bug and level up quickly, we’ll have to team up with the experts from other teams and use our numbers to draw away the monsters. What do you guys think?”

Deeper into the wilderness, more than 200 kilometers away, the monster hordes were incredibly dense, and many of the monster leaders were lords. Although the three of them had mastered the Heaven-Shaking Fist to a high degree, capable of severely injuring a high-level monster with a single punch, it was no match for the monster hordes.

The only way to get more blood from the two-horned cheetahs is to increase manpower; otherwise, they will have to watch helplessly as they miss this opportunity for rapid improvement.

"Let's join forces." After thinking it over, Lin Xinyao decided to join forces.

“I agree.” Li Tianxing nodded. “We don’t know when this bug will be fixed, and more and more large guilds are entering the High Martial Arts Descent, with new and new experts emerging one after another. Our opponents are not just Tianwei. Improving as quickly as possible is the key now.”

"Okay, I'll go talk to them." Seeing that the two of them agreed, Lu Fanchen then walked out of the basement to find the team leaders.

Obsidian Martial Arts School, First Floor, Beginner Gravity Room.

Luo Wushang sat cross-legged on the ground, her clothes soaked with sweat. The sweat dripped onto the B2-grade alloy floor, making a thumping sound like a hammer hitting the ground.

When Luo Wushang opened her eyes, she spat out a mouthful of blood, making her look somewhat listless.

"Fifteen times gravity is still too much of a stretch." Luo Wushang wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and revealed a rare smile. "However, I have finally mastered the second level of the Body Strengthening Secret Technique. Now, my body's resilience is probably unmatched even by mid-level monsters."

As Luo Wushang wiped the blood off her body, her previously listless complexion returned to a rosy hue, her recovery ability comparable to that of drinking a type II healing potion.

Just as Luo Wushang was about to test the second level of the body-strengthening technique she had mastered, the smartwatch on her wrist suddenly beeped.

"It's really rare that you would take the initiative to contact me. Is there something you need?" Luo Wushang looked at Lu Fanchen, who had contacted her, quite surprised.

“I found a bug in the wilderness that allows for rapid skill improvement, and the effect is much better than constantly using Type II energy potions for cultivation. Are you Tianwei interested?” Lu Fanchen asked directly.

"Of course I'm interested. I wonder what price we'll have to pay?" Luo Wushang asked without hesitation.

Type II energy potions are scarce, and martial arts schools even limit their sales, which is why she can't advance to a high-level martial artist. If Type II energy potions were plentiful, she would have advanced to a high-level martial artist long ago.

Now that there's something even more effective than Type 2 energy potions, we certainly can't miss it.

As a member of Mythical Paradise, she didn't think Lu Fanchen would let her off so easily.

"Come to my lounge now. Yi Ye Fu Yun and Fang Zhen will be here soon. We'll talk in detail once they arrive," Lu Fanchen said before hanging up.

"Are we working together as a team? It seems quite difficult to exploit this wilderness bug." Luo Wushang's lips curled up slightly after hearing this. "But it's also a good opportunity to test my current strength in the wilderness."

Luo Wushang then left the primary gravity chamber and went to the second-floor lounge to wait for Yi Ye Fuyun and Fang Zhen.

Until the sun had completely set.

A core disciple assessment team of more than thirty martial artists, composed of several groups, sped out of the city in a medium-sized transport vehicle.

As the medium-sized transport vehicle left the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, several young members of the Winged Clan, who had been watching the departing vehicle from a street corner outside the academy, immediately relayed the news via their smartwatches.

"Did a large number of martial artists from the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy leave the City of Light?" Mans looked at the report from his subordinate and couldn't help but laugh. "I've been worried about not having an opportunity these past few days. Now I can cooperate with those forces to wipe out all the martial artists from the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy in one fell swoop!"
