Martial Arts Overlord!

"Bang bang bang!"

Lu Jin held the blood-stained baseball bat in his hand and weighed it for a while. He could feel some weight the first two times, but now it felt light and floaty, so he put it back.

After mastering the Dragon Fist fighting technique, his physique increased significantly. Before he had received specialized training in weaponry, the baseball bat was not as effective as his bare hands.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle".

In the dimly lit stairwell, there seemed to be the sound of rats gnawing on electrical wires, but no other sounds could be heard.

Lu Jin's muscles were tense as he carefully walked towards the stairwell, intending to go to other parts of the community this time.

It wasn't just because his strength had broken through; more importantly, if he didn't leave this building, he wouldn't be able to collect more mysterious light orbs.

A moment later, Lu Jin arrived at the first floor without panting or blushing. The icy wind blew against his cheeks, ravaging his skin like sharp blades.

But it didn't feel as cold as before, and its physical strength had increased many times over. Normally, it would take it at least two breaths to come down from the tenth floor in one breath, but now it was as easy as walking on flat ground.

Looking at the black fog in front of them, with visibility of only a little over a meter, and hearing the monster's roar from time to time, it was terrifying.

What could possibly turn a bustling metropolis into a living hell?

"What are these monsters? A zombie virus?"

Many questions arose in Lu Jin's mind, but he only pondered them for a second. Since he couldn't figure them out, he stopped thinking about them. He only knew that as long as he became strong enough, all kinds of problems would be solved sooner or later.

Based on his memory of the neighborhood where he rented a room, Lu Jin instinctively walked in one direction. However, after only a few steps, a deafening roar shattered the darkness!

The next second, a monster emerged from the dim mist. Its size was about the same as the second monster that Lu Jin had painstakingly killed, and Lu Jin named it.

Since he was given advanced attribute origins, Lu Jin named monsters of this size "advanced monsters," while those smaller than him, like the first one he killed, were called "ordinary monsters."

"Come on, I'm much better than before this time!"

Lu Jin clenched his fists, his veins bulging wildly, highlighting his savage muscle lines. The monster seemed to understand Lu Jin's words, its hideous face, which resembled a human face, grinned with a gaping maw, and with a burst of strength from its limbs, it traversed a distance of tens of meters in one fell swoop.

Lu Jin showed no tension or fear this time, his eyes were filled with desire and greed for the items the monsters could drop!

Since he was able to kill this monster when he was weak, he can do it again now!

With one foot planted on the ground, cracks appeared in the moss-covered, decaying ground. Lu Jin used the enormous recoil to rush to the high-level monster in just a few breaths.

Blue scales appeared on his right arm, forming a straight spear. He swung his fist from bottom to top in a circle, then stomped the ground hard!

boom!

Lu Jin's fist collided with the monster's jaw, his arm pressed tightly against his cheek, and with another counter-force, he unleashed a killing move from the Dragon Fist fighting style—Azure Dragon Emerging from the Sea.

Lu Jin struck the high-level monster's jaw squarely, the sound of bones shattering clearly rang out, and then the monster's massive body, accompanied by a miserable howl, slammed into the ground with a deafening roar.

"Awooo—!"

With a roar, it struggled a few more times and then lost all its breath. Lu Jin also had a good habit of finishing off his enemies.

Whether he's dead or not, let's finish him off with a punch first!

Bang!

Another punch shattered the monster's head, and then a faint light reappeared.

[Stamina: 10.7→11.7]

[Spirit: 8.9→9.9]

[Willpower: 9.6 → 10.6]

"Awesome!"

Feeling the slight tremor in his own blood and qi, Lu Jin couldn't help but groan. He was growing to like the Eternal Night Ruins more and more.

As long as he doesn't encounter monsters he can't defeat, this place is practically paradise for him!

"I need greater power!"

He quickly stepped over the corpse of the high-level monster, his gaze sweeping over everything within the neighborhood.

Public areas, parking lots, green belts... and other residential buildings.

Lu Jin spared no place; any monster that dared to appear was blasted to death by Lu Jin's punch. It was just a pity that there were still relatively few high-level monsters in this community.

While exploring every corner of the neighborhood, Lu Jin killed a total of thirteen monsters. Including the first high-level monster he killed, there were only two high-level monsters; the rest were ordinary monsters.

The mysterious light orbs he obtained were not ideal either, because Lu Jin mainly obtained attribute essences, and they were all of the ordinary level. In addition to the high-level monster he killed at the beginning, he obtained a total of two high-level attribute essences.

You have obtained 23 Common-grade attribute essences.

You have obtained 1 Advanced Attribute Source.

You have obtained 1 Common-Grade Breakthrough Dream Essence

"Not bad. The improvement in the four dimensions in such a short time is comparable to more than a month of my cultivation."

Lu Jin swung his arm, feeling the surge of power, his brows furrowed with joy. Although he had obtained relatively little Dream Essence from the Breakthrough Realm, he still had the will to practice martial arts.

As long as his willpower attribute increases, his speed of practicing martial arts will also increase accordingly. In any case, whatever he acquires will be an improvement for Lu Jin.

"It's a pity there are so few of these mysterious orbs of light in the neighborhood."

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow and looked around at the dim environment. He had searched every corner of the neighborhood. If he wanted to obtain the mysterious light orb that would help him improve, he would have to go outside the neighborhood.

Following his memory, he arrived at the entrance of the residential area. The black fog had become even thicker. Lu Jin vaguely remembered the scene of his second time entering the Eternal Night Ruins from the main road.

Outside his current neighborhood, there are also many monsters, and perhaps even more terrifying ones than the advanced ones.

Of course, the rewards would be even greater, so Lu Jin ultimately chose to play it safe.

Who knows what other terrifying things might exist outside? He only has one life. This isn't a game where you can just restart after losing one. He's already gained enough for today, so he might as well wait in the neighborhood to return to the real world.

We strive to become even stronger so that we can explore the outside world.

Lu Jin vaguely sensed the habits of these monsters. They seemed to have a sense of territory and a leader. For example, the neighborhood where Lu Jin was located was the territory of some monsters.

Just as Lu Jin was backing away, intending to find a place to sit and wait to return to the real world, a sudden roar almost shattered his eardrums.

Boom!

The sound of the metal fence being knocked down made Lu Jin's hair stand on end. In the fog before his eyes, a larger monster emerged, its body covered in wounds, but carrying the corpse of a high-level monster in its mouth!

It was nearly two meters tall and about ten meters long. Its ferocious head was several times the size of Lu Jin's head. Its blood-stained gums were exposed, and one of its canine teeth was several tens of centimeters long. Its hands were as big as three of Lu Jin's thighs.

With a roar, a violent gust of air blew against Lu Jin's face, and a stench immediately assaulted his senses before he could even react.

The claws, as large as the sky, slammed down directly at him!
