High Martial Arts Races: I Ascend to the Future in a Simulation

At 48, Shi Feng, having rapidly increased his cultivation by three levels using his "Hot-Blooded Technique," fought to the death to defeat his opponent, seizing the power and becoming the strongest person in the tribe below you.

At 49, you felt it was time to leave. One late night, you left a letter, turned, and walked away, gun on your back and armor in hand.

[After seeing the contents of the rough paper on the table, Shi Feng burst into tears.]

[And you have vanished into the vast northeast, into the depths of the Northeast Abyss.]

"You have to let go when it's time to let go."

[50 years old, "So stylish!"]

"This is the taste! I love this taste!"

"As expected of the Northeast Abyss."

You can't help but cheer; this vibrant atmosphere is simply heaven!

A moment later, you found the savage tribe and the Iron Barbarians.

"I'm the boss on the ground, but I'm still the boss here."

You can't help but sigh, "That's the advantage of casting a wide net; you're surrounded by your own people."

At 52 years old, Tie Man is now over forty, yet he remains constrained by the environment, stuck at the peak of the Martial Warrior realm.

[And he would often ask you with resentment, "Dad, am I really unable to break through and become the 'Martial Master' you speak of?"]

"Child, there are limits to human potential."

You shook your head repeatedly, saying, "It's true. This world can no longer allow the birth of beings in the second realm. It's not your fault, it's the will of Heaven!"

[But unlike before, this time you saw a strange smile creep onto Tie Man's lips: "Is that so... I don't believe it!"]

【you:"……"】

For some reason, you think of the savage who issued the challenge.

[You raised this child yourself; he shouldn't be capable of killing his father and eating him to advance his career, right?]

You slept poorly for half a month, burdened by this worry, but as two or three months passed, you gradually forgot about that moment.

Xu Fei: "..."

So what variables will arise?

Could it be that a crystal mine is hidden somewhere in prehistoric times?

Or perhaps Tie Man entered the "inner world"—a place with richer resources and a higher concentration of vital energy—through some mysterious little passage?

[At 54 years old, for the past two years, Tie Man has been giving you a mysterious look from time to time, a half-smile that often sends chills down your spine. You wonder what this kid is up to.]

At 55, you suddenly notice that Tie Man has fallen into a state of despondency again, but he soon recovers, his face showing determination.

You couldn't be bothered with it, so you just let him be.

[At 57, you can now circulate the Qi Circulation Technique 400 times a day. With years of practice, the quality of your Qi and blood is many times stronger than before.]

"I'm afraid the quality of my blood and energy is already comparable to that of some young peak martial artists."

[You thought to yourself, some genius martial artists break through too quickly. Even if they can circulate their Qi and Blood cultivation techniques hundreds of times a day, they only need five or six years to reach the peak of Martial Master. So the amplification effect of their Qi and Blood power might not actually be as high as yours.]

Xu Fei casually opened the information panel and only checked the section on Qi and Blood Power.

[Qi and Blood Enhancement Effect: 42% Strength, 34% Agility, 37% Power, 24% Vitality]

"Wow, it's enhanced by almost half!"

Each of these four attributes is strengthened by about half, resulting in an overall combat power increase of at least more than double!

After using the power of Qi and Blood, Simulated Flight can simultaneously deal with two or three of his own unused abilities!

At 60, you feel your body has finally reached its peak. Your potential in this life has not been diminished, and your lifespan has not been worn down, resulting in you remaining robust even past sixty.

[You, still vigorous despite your age, wrestled with a five-meter-long baby Tyrannosaurus Rex, and in a few moves, skillfully flipped it over.]

[At 61 years old, you are now practicing both the standard and Qi/Blood versions of the Wind-Up Fist.]

Although the latter is more difficult, taking twenty years to advance from proficiency to perfection, that difficulty stems from the subtle control of Qi and blood!

[Essentially, they are interconnected. When training by exchanging techniques, both can learn from each other and progress together.]

[Just like you've already mastered the basic gunplay, if you practice the Qi and Blood version, you'll reach the master level almost instantly, if not quickly. Perfecting it within three years, and reaching the master level within ten years, shouldn't be a problem.]

"My standard version of Ventilation Punch feels like it's still a long way from the Ultimate version."

"My talent for boxing is indeed lacking, but I've already trained to this level. Once I've solidified my boxing intent, I'll try finger techniques, leg techniques, palm techniques, and claw techniques."

[At 63, you are munching on a purplish-red melon, casually whipping a wild child with a stick to force him to learn to read, when a figure approaches you from afar.]

【Iron Barbarian.】

He opened his arms wide, his expression more relaxed and at ease than ever before, as if he had broken free from the shackles that had bound him for so long, as if a person on earth had soared into the sky and beheld the great light and the supreme heaven.

This scene seems vaguely familiar.

You watched helplessly as Tie Man walked in front of you and struck with lightning speed, the force of the impact sending dust billowing up from where you had been standing.

He moved like a gust of wind; before you could even react, a hand was on your shoulder.

The moment he touched you, the terrifying force capable of killing an elephant was withdrawn by Tie Man. He wanted you to feel another power, a completely new and vibrant one.

That scene of everything flourishing seems to be right here.

"Did he bald himself?"

You appear dazed.

[Because that was the power of qi and blood, he broke through what you perceived as the limitations of the natural environment, advancing to the second realm of Martial Master.]

"??? Really?"

"How did he do that?"

"That's impossible! This era no longer allows for absorbing enough vital energy at once to advance to the second realm!" you questioned.

[Tie Man: "Dad, you told me that the more you practice, the better you'll be."]

"Now I've proven I'm not bad anymore."

【you:"……"】

Xu Fei: "..."

For a moment, they were unable to refute it.

Thinking back to the strange behavior of Tie Man in the simulation, Xu Fei seemed to be deep in thought.

"Could he have actually discovered some small-scale elemental crystal vein?"

"So he secretly mined the low-purity 'elemental stones' inside, hoping to break through to the second realm by absorbing the elemental energy contained in those ores."

Xu Fei was furious.

"Unfilial son!"

"How could he not tell his father about such a great place!"

"I've raised you for nothing!"

"I'm giving you the mother monkey for free!"

"I'll take you flying high!"

"Pooh!"
