Slaughter to Prove Your Dao: Unlock the Great Sage Equal to Heaven at the Start!

After resting for about half an hour, I felt much better.

Chen Xing stood up and walked to the silver-white holographic simulation cabin.

Following the instructions on the side, he lay down inside.

The hatch closed slowly.

Everything went dark for a moment, then suddenly bright again.

He found himself standing in an endless expanse.

In a virtual space with only a gray grid floor.

A cold, synthesized electronic voice sounded in my ear:

"Welcome to the 'Dragon Soul-III' Holographic Simulation System."

Please select a training mode: Basic Attribute Test / Real Combat Simulation / Skill-Specific Training / Custom Scenario Training.

"Basic attribute test," Chen Xing began.

"Basic attribute test begins"

"Please proceed with the tests in the following order: strength, speed, reaction, defense, and overall resilience."

"Test data will be automatically recorded and reports will be generated."

In the following time, Chen Xing completed a series of tests as prompted by the system.

Punch at the force test target and run and dodge on a high-speed moving track.

Harden against simulated energy shocks...

The test ended twenty minutes later.

In the virtual space, a screen of light appears.

His various data are listed above:

[Tester: Chen Xing]

[Realm Assessment: Second Realm Warrior (Lower Rank)]

Peak strength: 4120kg (Standard value for a second-realm warrior: 1980kg)

[Maximum speed: 42 m/s (Standard value: 30 m/s)]

[Neural Response: Excellent+]

[Defense Rating: Simulating a standard attack from a low-tier Tier 3 monster, the damage to the body surface is 12%, classified as 'Minor Damage'.]

[Overall combat strength assessment: Far exceeds the standard level of its peers.]

[His physical strength, defense, and power are particularly outstanding.]

Based on the assessment of their fighting style, they possess the ability to win against opponents of higher levels.

[Potential Rating: SS]

Looking at the data report, Chen Xing understood.

A punch with a force exceeding four tons, nearly double that of others in the same class!

Its speed is also significantly superior.

The most crucial aspect is defense; it can withstand a level 3 attack with only a slight 12% damage.

This means that in actual combat, as long as you are not directly hit in a vital spot by a third-tier monster's ultimate move.

He can almost completely ignore the opponent's normal attacks!

This defensive capability, combined with the damage bonus from [Raging Tides], makes it even stronger.

This made his ability to survive in actual combat and his ability to sustain combat reach a terrifying level.

"Switch mode, special skill training, [Indestructible Vajra (Minor Success)]."

Chen Xing gave the order.

The scene changed, and he appeared in a wilderness.

Various virtual monsters instantly appeared all around.

From the first and second tiers: sharp-toothed rat, rotten-skinned hyena, and ironbacked wolf.

The Rock Armored Earth Dragon and Wind Blade Giant Eagle, both at the peak of the second tier.

They all launched an attack on him!

Chen Xing stood still, neither dodging nor avoiding.

With a single thought, he activated the [Indestructible Vajra] technique with all his might.

*Pfft! Pfft! Clang! Boom!*

Claws tear and fangs bite.

Energy breath, wind blades cutting, boulders crashing down...

Various attacks rained down on him.

But the vast majority of the attacks landed on his skin.

Only a faint white mark remained; the skin wasn't even broken!

A few relatively strong Tier 3 attacks.

For example, the Rock Armored Earth Dragon's charge and the Wind Blade Giant Eagle's feather attack.

It can cause his body to sway slightly, and his skin to become red, swollen, or slightly broken.

But it healed in an instant thanks to its powerful regenerative abilities.

To his even greater surprise, after enduring dozens of attacks, a system notification suddenly sounded:

[Triggered the 'Counterattack' effect! Reflects 30% of the physical damage from this attack!]

[The target, a virtual Ironback Wolf, has suffered a broken forelimb!]

He saw a phantom of an iron-backed wolf lunging at him and tearing at his calf.

Suddenly, he let out a terrible scream and was sent flying backward.

Upon landing, one of its front legs was unnaturally bent.

"good!"

A bright light shone in Chen Xing's eyes.

This counter-shock effect, although the trigger probability is only 10%.

But in a chaotic battle, it's an absolutely divine skill!

Furthermore, as the skill level of Indestructible Vajra increases...

The probability of a counter-shock and the rebound rate can definitely increase further.

After testing the defense, Chen Xing began to think about his attack methods.

Currently, the main reliance is on the passive bonus of [Raging Tide].

In addition to basic staff techniques and formidable physical strength.

Battle Saint Body is an S-level talent.

Are the only passively triggered [Raging Tide] and the vaguely described [Undying Fighting Spirit] the only ones?

He recalled that surge of emotion that welled up from the depths of his soul during each battle.

A thirst for battle.

And that burning, fiery fighting spirit.

That is the original power of the Battle Saint Body.

Perhaps... we could take the initiative to guide them?

Chen Xing closed his eyes, no longer paying attention to the virtual attacks from the outside world.

My mind sank into my body.

Feel the burning fighting spirit.

He reminisced about his time with the Rat King.

He recalled the life-or-death struggle with the wolf king, and the system notification that sounded when he killed the monster.

The thrill of increasing kill count, the recollection of a thirst for even greater power...

Gradually, he saw it.

Deep within my heart, there seems to be an invisible and intangible mass.

Yet the intensely blazing flames burned quietly.

That is the origin of the Battle Saint Body—

A fighting spirit.

"Guide it...release it..."

Chen Xing concentrated all his energy and tried to use his willpower.

Go and stir that flame.

At first there was no response.

That flame seemed to have its own will, proud and independent.

But Chen Xing did not give up; he poured all his memories of battle into his hands.

All the murderous intent.

All the obsession with becoming stronger transforms into the tentacles of will.

To contact, to communicate, to... give orders, again and again!

After an unknown amount of time, the flame seemed to be ignited by his persistence.

It swayed slightly.

It's now!

Chen Xing suddenly opened his eyes in the virtual space.

A golden-red flame, seemingly tangible, flashed and disappeared in his eyes!

He let out a low, oppressive growl:

"war!"

boom--!!!

An invisible and intangible force.

Yet it felt as heavy as a mountain.

A terrifying aura, as intense as molten lava, erupted from him!

The invisible air currents spread out in a ring shape.

It swept through the entire virtual space in an instant!

The virtual monsters that were attacking him frantically suddenly stopped moving.

A clear look of terror appeared in his eyes.

A look of fear appeared on their faces, and their attack power and speed noticeably decreased!

There are several first-tier virtual monsters.

Its form was even directly dispersed by this force, turning into specks of light and disappearing!

[Ding! Host has been detected to have actively activated the hidden characteristics of the Battle Saint Body!]

[Master the active ability: Battle Intent Pressure!]

【Battle Intent Suppression (Active): Releases the primal battle intent of the Battle Saint Body, forming a powerful spiritual aura that suppresses all surrounding enemy units.】

[Effect: Reduces the target's all attributes by 5%-20%. The specific reduction depends on the difference in strength between the two sides.]

[Willpower strength and the intensity of the host's fighting spirit. Continuously consumes mental energy; can be actively maintained or deactivated.]

Become!

Chen Xing was overjoyed and withdrew his fighting spirit and pressure.

The virtual monsters immediately returned to normal.

But the look in his eyes was already filled with instinctive fear.

"The pressure of battle intent... its range has been weakened, and it's still on a mental level."

"Combined with Lin Moyan's sonic interference and Xia Qingyun's ink chain control, the effect will be absolutely outstanding!"

Chen Xing quickly analyzed the effects of the new ability.

He tried turning it on and off several times to familiarize himself with the consumption and control.

Next, he tried to concentrate his fighting spirit.

It is not diffusion that creates pressure, but compression.

It adheres to the fist, and then you unleash a punch!

boom!

A fist, brimming with fighting spirit, slammed hard into the top of a virtual rock-armored dragon head.

Compared to the previous pure power attacks.

The destructive power of this punch was significantly increased.

Deeper cracks appeared in the rock armor atop the dragon's head.

"Concentrate your fighting spirit at one point and unleash it instantly to increase the power of a single attack... Let's call it 'Fighting Spirit Burst'."

"However, it consumes a lot of energy and cannot be used as a regular method; it is more suitable for decisive battles in critical moments."
