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

Chapter 231 A Thought Creates a World, Omniscience Within a Small Inch
"It's finally done."

Lin Qi looked at the system notification and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Whether the concept of stellar explosions can reach perfection is unclear to him, since it is a concept conceived by mad scientists.

This concept exists only in theory, but it allows one's spirit to be tempered like a star exploding, undergoing a qualitative change through each explosion.

Players who manage to master this skill must have died countless times before learning it. For a normal person, even a single attempt would likely result in instant death.

Each practice of visualizing stellar explosions can be deadly.

His high level of proficiency in visualizing stellar explosions is built upon the corpses of numerous players.

Whether such a concept, which exists only in theory, can reach a state of perfection is something that even the mad scientists who created it probably didn't know.

Just as Lin Qisong took a breath, countless memories flooded into his mind, causing him to practice almost instinctively.

For a moment, Lin Qi felt his spirit exploding again and again, each explosion making his spirit stronger and more solid.

I don't know how many times it exploded, or how many times my spirit grew stronger and more solidified, until I felt completely filled with my entire spiritual world.

boom!
It was as if the whole world had exploded, the barrier of the mental world was completely shattered, as if the spirit had burst the entire mental world, and Lin Qi's face was pale, and blood was flowing from his seven orifices, which could not be stopped.

"How is this going?"

At this moment, Lin Qi felt an unprecedented pain in his brain, as if countless pieces of information were pouring into it, causing it to operate at an overload, giving him a feeling that it was about to explode.

The sudden influx of information triggered a protective mechanism in the brain, which blocked various bodily functions in order to process the massive amount of information. This caused Lin Qi to collapse to the ground, unable to move at all, just like a vegetable.

Although his eyes were open, he was unable to speak and could only stare silently at the ceiling of the gravity chamber, unable to do anything.

More than half an hour later, as if his brain had adapted to the information and categorized it into different types, making it less complicated, Lin Qi felt he could control his body. However, he still felt his brain was burning and was in a state of brain overload.

"What's happening here?"

As Lin Qi stood up, the information his brain had suddenly received left him completely dumbfounded.

Because this information is not just any information, but information about the entire primary gravity chamber. The number of floorboards on the ground and the amount of dust inside are all presented to him at this moment, allowing him to clearly know everything within a ten-meter radius of himself.

It was as if one's spirit had completely filled this ten-meter radius space, and one could clearly perceive any slight movement, even with all five senses shut down.

"Could this be the effect of the Star Explosion Visualization Method reaching its perfect state?" Lin Qi sensed everything within a ten-meter radius and couldn't believe it was real.

Although he was extremely uncomfortable with this feeling, he had to admit that this omniscient sense within a ten-meter radius was like entering a new world.

Within a ten-meter radius, that is his world; he knows even the slightest movements of his own muscles perfectly.

Moreover, under this powerful mental influence, Lin Qi clearly felt that he had more control over himself. He could even precisely control how much force each muscle in his body should exert at the same time, or how each muscle should exert different amounts of force, which was simply incredible.

"This sense of control over my body is truly amazing. Now, even without extracting the players' memories, I can master those six matching martial arts techniques to perfection on my own without much injury." Lin Qi felt his body and exclaimed in amazement. "However, this Stellar Explosion Visualization Technique is too dangerous. If I hadn't mastered the second level of the Body Strengthening Secret Technique and possessed superhuman recovery abilities, the sheer amount of information introduced by the perfected Stellar Explosion Visualization Technique would probably have killed an ordinary martial artist."

The effects of visualizing a stellar explosion at its peak may be astonishing, but such power is clearly beyond the capacity of ordinary people to withstand.

The massive amount of information that was suddenly flooded into his brain is still causing brain overload. If it weren't for his powerful regenerative abilities that allow the damage to his brain to heal, he would probably only be able to stay alive with type II treatment drugs. For an ordinary martial artist, it would be certain death.

"Receiving too much information within a ten-meter radius is too much of a burden for me right now. I wonder if I can narrow down this omniscient range." Lin Qi felt his brain was burning and couldn't help but try to compress the range of his mental perception.

As Lin Qi attempted to compress his mind, just as he had expected, the range of his perception also began to shrink.

Radius 10 meters... Radius 9 meters... Radius 8 meters...

It wasn't until Lin Qi felt his mind compressed to a radius of seven meters that the burning sensation in his brain subsided, and he returned to a relatively normal state.

However, as Lin Qi focused his mind, he quickly discovered a new problem.

This feeling of mental compression is like having all your muscles tense up; it's exhausting and can't be sustained.

"It seems that unless I can improve the speed at which my brain processes information, or block out some information, the problem of brain-burning will be impossible to solve." After a few minutes, Lin Qi's mental perception range returned to a radius of ten meters, and he couldn't help but feel a headache over this omniscient ability. "Indeed, being too powerful is also a problem. If only there were something that could weaken my mental perception."

System: Congratulations, host, the intermediate training room renovation is complete.

"Is it finished?" Lin Qi looked at the system notification below his vision, feeling a sense of anticipation. "I wonder what level my strength has reached now."

While reaching the pinnacle of the Stellar Explosion Visualization Technique won't improve physical attributes, the enhanced omniscience within a ten-meter radius and the significantly increased control over one's body will undoubtedly boost combat power considerably.

The intermediate combat puppets in the intermediate training room can not only unleash the power of a martial artist at their limit, but also have their combat level set to the advanced stage of the Microscopic Realm. Their combat power is probably stronger than that of the initial stage of the Bone Forging Realm in the City of Light. They are perfect for practice.

Immediately, Lin Qi couldn't wait to run to the newly renovated intermediate training room.

Inside an abandoned building outside the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy in the City of Light.

Wearing a jet-black robe and completely covered in dark blue metallic armor, Fred, whose face was completely obscured, looked at the now sparsely populated Obsidian Martial Arts School and then at the time on his wrist.

"This Obsidian Martial Arts Academy is really bustling. It's past 1 a.m., and there are still so many people." Fred looked at the thousands of people still wandering the streets outside the academy and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. "Never mind, even if there's some big commotion in the suburbs at this hour, and the drones of the City of Light detect that it's a battle between Bone Forging Realm experts, it will take five or six minutes to contact other Bone Forging Realm experts from other garrison regiments to come. That's enough time for me to deal with him and leave safely."

The prosperity of the Obsidian Martial Arts School far exceeded Fred's expectations.

He arrived at the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy in the morning and had been secretly observing it, hoping to make his move when there were fewer people around. After all, killing martial artists in a fight within the city was already enough to anger the city, let alone assassinating a Bone Forging Realm martial artist within the city.

Even if he is a half-step top-level Bone Forging Realm expert in Wanxing City, highly valued by the city lord of Wanxing City, and possibly to succeed the city lord in the future, if the City of Chasing Light finds out, it will definitely not let him go.

His identity as a demon race could not be hidden, but as long as others saw his face and did not know the martial arts he used, the City of Light would never guess that it was him.

The fights between martial artists at the Bone Forging Realm are extremely loud and can even alter the terrain. If a passerby records the martial arts techniques they use, it's easy to expose them. Therefore, they can only try to find a time when there are few people around to minimize this trouble. Even if the martial arts techniques they use are not the ones they learned under their public identity, they still try to expose as little as possible.

To avoid arousing suspicion, he even disembarked from the flying car halfway to the City of Light and ran there unnoticed. Be careful!

This is why he has been able to complete so many assassination missions for the Red Moon Merchant Guild without being exposed.

If possible, Fred would really like to wait a little longer, but he came from Domain City on an important mission and couldn't afford to delay too long for an assassination mission.

Fred then leaped into the air like a swallow, landing silently and imperceptibly to the naked eye of ordinary people. He quickly entered the back door of the Obsidian Martial Arts School to search for Lin Qi.

Obsidian Martial Arts School, first floor, intermediate training room.

A combat puppet, over two meters tall and made entirely of liquid metal, stood in the center. Lin Qi was very satisfied with the intermediate combat puppet after its final adjustments, and was even somewhat amazed by its power.

Previously, the system only stated that the intermediate-level combat puppet had the strength of a peak martial artist, but it did not provide specific data.

This led Lin Qi to believe that the strength of an intermediate-level combat puppet should only be 4000 kilograms, which is the strength level that a high-level martial artist at the limit can reach.

But Lin Qi was shocked after seeing the data of the intermediate-level combat puppet.

The strength limit that an intermediate-level combat puppet can reach is not 4000 kilograms, but 10000 kilograms, and its speed is 120 meters per second.

With such strength and speed, it would be hard to argue that he's at the mid-stage of the Bone Forging Realm, since the minimum weight for the mid-stage Bone Forging Realm is only 9000 kilograms.

Lin Qi further taught the intermediate-level combat puppet three powerful martial arts techniques: Jinghong, Thunder Palm, and Thunder Flash. Although these three techniques are only high-level martial arts techniques, they are very comprehensive, capable of both long-range and close-range combat, and can be used on the ground and in the air.

Lin Qi even suspected that this intermediate-level combat puppet could easily defeat ordinary mid-level Bone Forging Realm martial artists, since the combat level of the intermediate-level combat puppet was not only at the microscopic level, but also at the high level of the microscopic level.

"Now let me see your strength." Lin Qi then activated the intermediate-level combat puppet's sparring mode, directly setting the combat level to the highest level, Advanced Microscopic.

As Lin Qi activated the sparring mode, the intermediate-level combat puppet's hand transformed into a longsword, its eyes glowed red, and it entered combat mode.

Just as Lin Qi was about to pick up the black club lying to the side, the door to the intermediate training room was suddenly kicked open, and a demon man nearly three meters tall with four arms, completely covered in dark blue armor, rushed in.

This demonic man was none other than Fred, the four-armed swordsman who had come to assassinate him.

The moment Fred saw Lin Qi, he used a high-level martial artist's footwork to flash in front of Lin Qi, who was a hundred meters away. He slashed down at Lin Qi with a bone knife made from the teeth of a lord monster, as fast as lightning.

This is also the super-level martial art, Obscure Moon, that Fred secretly learned in the Domain City.

A single slash can unleash twenty-four variations, making it impossible even for a high-level Bone Forging Realm martial artist to predict its trajectory, let alone parry it.

Fred also used this move to kill a high-level expert in the Bone Forging Realm in a single exchange.

Just as the knife was about to strike Lin Qi, Fred suddenly sounded the alarm and almost instinctively drew his knife to block it to the side.

boom!
Sparks flying!

The intense impact reverberated throughout the intermediate training room, but the room had undergone system modifications and was exceptionally sturdy, so the collision did not cause any damage.

Fred himself was knocked back more than ten steps before he managed to regain his footing.

"A combat robot?" Fred looked at the intermediate combat puppet in surprise, his heart filled with shock and confusion.

That sudden sword strike was silent and incredibly powerful, definitely exceeding thirty tons. If he hadn't already been a high-level martial artist at the Limit Bone Forging Realm, with a strength of nearly fifteen tons, and hadn't been protected by a second-tier battle armor that weakened the impact, his arm would definitely have been injured by that sword strike.

The fact that a combat robot could injure him is simply impossible, no matter how you look at it. Even among the combat robots in the Domain City, it's already quite impressive if they can spar with someone at the initial stage of the Bone Forging Realm. To want to fight a martial artist at the peak of the Bone Forging Realm like him is just a pipe dream.

But you can't deny the power of that force.

Before Fred could recover from his shock, the intermediate-level combat puppet used its amazing attack, appearing in front of Fred almost instantly. Its arm, transformed into a sword, slashed at Fred, the blade crackling with electricity.

The intermediate-level combat puppet's attack speed was so fast that, despite using the Lightning Palm technique, it was like an ordinary slash, as if there was no process of accumulating energy and unleashing power. It was just a simple chop, leaving Fred no time to use martial arts to defend. He could only passively defend with his own strength and the power of his second-tier battle armor.

boom!
boom!
boom!
Almost every clash of swords forced Fred to retreat further and further, his arms becoming numb from the impact. Meanwhile, the intermediate combat puppet's lightning palm strikes were relentless, and each attack seemed to anticipate Fred's defensive moves.

The sudden change of tactics caught Fred completely off guard, forcing him to rely on his lightning-fast reflexes to barely dodge.

The intermediate-level combat puppet, due to its sudden change in tactics, only had a strength of ten tons. Even when it hit the second-tier armor, it did little damage to Fred, but it made Fred feel like he hadn't woken up properly today.

He was actually suppressed by a sparring robot!

While Fred was being suppressed by the intermediate-level combat puppet, Lin Qi on the other side was also very surprised to see this scene.

"Is this the power of the advanced stage of the Subtle Realm?" Lin Qi looked at the intermediate-level combat puppet that used the Lightning Palm as if it were just a normal slash, and he couldn't help but be shocked by the advanced stage of the Subtle Realm.

He sensed Fred's attack and killing intent immediately, and he could also see Fred's strength. In other words, once Fred entered within ten meters of him, it would be difficult for him not to know.

High-level Ultimate Bone Forging Realm!
In the City of Light, this is definitely a top-tier expert. Even he himself might not have been able to defeat such an expert without using extraordinary martial arts skills.

However, they are now being suppressed by the intermediate-level combat puppet.

Reaching the advanced level of the Microscopic Realm is like opening the door to a new world. The use of the body has reached a level of unparalleled skill, turning martial arts techniques that originally required a lot of charging into ordinary attacks.

This is a fight where the other person can only fight using their physical strength, while you can use martial arts techniques – it's a completely unfair fighting style.

"Damn it! We can't waste any more time!"

Seeing the relentless attacks from the intermediate-level combat puppet, Fred dared not hold back any longer. He drew his bone knives from his remaining three arms, and while two of his arms were wielding the knives to withstand the intermediate-level combat puppet's slashes, he suddenly slashed down at Lin Qi, who was less than ten meters away.

Super-level martial skill: Obscure Moon!
