Martial Arts Overlord!

At this moment, Lu Jin felt a little curious, but the light from the orb was too faint.

Apart from the ball of light, everything else was shrouded in black mist.

As he moved his feet slightly, Lu Jin realized he was on the main road.

It's the street he walked out of the restaurant, quite close to his rented apartment.

"The rental apartments, even the street layout, are exactly the same. Could this really be the future?"

"If that's true, then why did this once bustling city turn into this?"

Lu Jin moved his feet carefully, stepping on the rotten road covered with moss and dead leaves. The sound was extremely jarring, but the approaching glowing object was frantically stimulating Lu Jin's eyes.

I had a feeling about it.

Lu Jin felt that since such a light appeared in the eternal night, it must be something extraordinary.

Perhaps this could increase his chances of survival!

With only a dozen meters to go, Lu Jin became even more cautious, holding his breath and shrinking his neck to avoid the cold wind and chill as much as possible.

Those eagle eyes began to frantically survey his eagle territory. The location he was currently in when he entered the Eternal Night Ruins was not like the rented house he had been in before.

At least it was a densely packed room with only one entrance, and they had weapons in their hands.

But now he is in an open space, and if monsters attack, Lu Jin has no way to defend himself.

Controlling his breathing, Lu Jin noticed that there wasn't much unusual around him. Gathering his courage, he rushed to the glowing object in an instant.

He then grasped it in his palm, but it vanished instantly, merging directly into his body.

Suddenly, several lines of text appeared in front of Lu Jin's retina.

You have obtained a common-grade attribute essence.

Attack: 8.2 → 8.3

Speed: 7.8 → 7.9

[Defense: 6.3→6.4]

[Stamina: 7.1→7.2]

[Spirit: 6.8→6.9]

[Willpower: 7.4 → 7.5]

"This is?"

Lu Jin's pupils contracted, and his breathing became slightly rapid. He had not expected this to happen in the Eternal Night Ruins.

Besides being fraught with danger, it is also full of opportunities.

"Such an improvement can be achieved from a mere ordinary-grade elemental source?"

It should be noted that, excluding the time Xu Jiang spent teaching him, he only had a few hours of practice time today.

Aside from gaining a little more proficiency in Dragon Fist, the rest of the time I felt sore all over, and almost developed lumbar muscle strain.

His inherent attributes were enough to withstand his efforts over several days, and Lu Jin felt that his entire body had become even more powerful.

He became stronger.

Although not much!

But Lu Jin could clearly sense it.

If he could obtain more attribute essence, Lu Jin would become a superman in the shortest possible time.

Looking at the empty and silent city, black and still, shrouded in mist.

Only the howling of the cold wind, and occasionally even the terrifying hissing, made one's heart pound.

"Is this kind of thing everywhere in this world of Eternal Night and Ruins?"

"If that's the case, then my chances of survival are even greater."

"Therefore... I need more attribute origins."

Lu Jin's eyes lit up as he looked around, trying to find where else this glowing orb might exist.

After gazing into the distance for a while, Lu Jin actually spotted it in the greenery of a residential area shrouded in mist.

Although he couldn't see anything else clearly, Lu Jin saw a glimmer of light.

If Lu Jin wasn't mistaken, there was a glowing object appearing there.

But further away, it was all pitch black, and nothing could be seen, which gave Lu Jin a bad feeling.

"I'll take the risk; fortune favors the bold."

Even if I find a place to hide, I'm not absolutely safe!

"Only by becoming stronger can you be safe."

"The best defense is offense; I need to quickly acquire the ability to kill monsters."

"I'll be completely safe once I kill them."

With this in mind, Lu Jin's eyes hardened, and he adjusted his body to its optimal state.

Bend your knees, bend over, and stomp your feet!

Whoosh!

Lu Jin sprang out like a cheetah, the cold wind stinging his face.

Fortunately, without any surprises, Lu Jin successfully arrived at the place where he had just seen the ball of light.

He quickly crouched down, reached out and picked up the ball of light, and another message popped up in front of his retina.

You have obtained a Common-Level Breakthrough Dream Essence.

"Breaking through the realm?"

Lu Jin was taken aback.

But the next second, before Lu Jin could properly study its function...

His pupils suddenly burst open, and the hissing sound and the stench behind him instantly entered Lu Jin's nostrils.

The hairs on the back of my neck stood on end at that moment!

He didn't even need to look back; Lu Jin knew there was a monster lurking behind him, ready to pounce.

There was no time to think.

"run!"

This is Lu Jin's only option.

Although he admitted it was a cowardly act, wouldn't it be idiotic to not run away when you can't win?

You said if the two sides were only slightly weaker, Lu Jin could have considered a sneak attack or something similar.

If it were like before in a rented house, you could use a baseball bat and a narrow entrance.

But now, he was unarmed, had only been learning Dragon Fist for an afternoon, and was being ambushed by a monster; the difference in their strength was obvious.

Lu Jin's brain was congested with blood, and his lungs were tight. He vowed that if he had the strength to deal with monsters...

He absolutely wanted to twist the monster's head off and use it as a ball.

Less than a day after crossing over, they faced two life-or-death threats from monsters.

In his previous life, Lu Jin suffered countless grievances, and he still suffers grievances after transmigrating.

This time travel was for nothing.

"Damn it, don't let me leave this hellhole alive!"

Lu Jin ran forward with all his might without stopping, his adrenaline surging.

Lu Jin felt that his 100-meter speed had now surpassed that of Usain Bolt.

At this moment, all Lu Jin wanted to do was run back to his old rented room, grab a baseball bat, and lean against the only door. He still had a chance to survive.

Just seconds after he launched himself into the air, Lu Jin heard several long howls directed towards the sky.

The roar was deafening, causing Lu Jin's eardrums to ache and his blood and qi to churn.

"There's more than one!"

"Holy crap! What the hell is this place?!"

"If this really is the future, what exactly happened in that world?! Weren't there powerful martial artists?!"

Lu Jin cursed inwardly.

Bang bang bang!

His heart rate had reached record highs.

He could even feel the monster's icy claws about to strike the top of his head, causing Lu Jin's blood to freeze.

At this critical moment, Lu Jin felt a light appear before his eyes.

In an instant, the boundless darkness receded, and the hopeful dawn reappeared in Lu Jin's ears.

The surrounding sounds of car horns and the clamor of crowds used to be incredibly noisy to Lu Jin.

But now he finds it incredibly beautiful.

It was like heavenly music.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Lu Jin breathed in the air greedily, patting his face to calm himself down. He inhaled the carbon dioxide-filled air and touched his back, which was already soaked with sweat.

This feeling of surviving death filled Lu Jin with immense joy, but his expression remained one of fear.

Almost.

It was really just a hair's breadth away.

It was as if he had fallen into an illusion, but Lu Jin knew it was just a hair's breadth away.

His chest would be pierced by the monster's claws, and then he would be disemboweled and become the monster's meal.

This re-entry into the Eternal Night Ruins made Lu Jin fully understand.

He can enter that eternal night at any time!

This means that one second he was playing in the real world, and the next second he might die in the eternal night.

This caused Lu Jin's mentality to falter slightly.

"In a sense, I'm like someone carrying a time bomb, not knowing when it will explode."

Lu Jin clenched his fists and tried to take a step, only to find that his legs were actually a little weak.

"No matter what, I barely survived again this time."

"This shows that the situation of returning to the void is not necessarily a dead end."

"But I can't just rely on luck in the future."

"I must survive!"

Get stronger!

Become stronger incredibly quickly!

Only then can one have the confidence to fight monsters and leave unharmed after each uncertain entry into the Eternal Night Ruins.

This was the best way for Lu Jin to survive.

With difficulty, Lu Jin returned to his rented room and immediately took a cold shower.

Only in this way could his inner fear be somewhat alleviated.

Looking at himself in the mirror, his muscle definition wasn't very obvious, and his hair was plastered tightly to his handsome face.

Lu Jin was breathing rapidly; he considered himself to be a fairly resolute person.

If it were any other ordinary person, entering that terrifying Eternal Night Ruins anytime, anywhere, they would have been terrified long ago.

"From this day forward, I will live each day as if it were my last."

Lu Jin grinned, his mindset had completely changed.

Who knows when I might die at the hands of that eternal night of desolation?

Lu Jin, a man who could die at any moment, vowed that he would not allow himself to suffer any more injustice.

Lu Jin completely forgot all the social skills he had learned in his previous life.

Life and death are bearish, if you don't agree, just do it!

There's no humanity, only accidents!

If you can win, fight them head-on and kill them. If you can't win, find a way to ambush them and then fight them to the death.

If you can't even get away with a sneak attack, then at least knock out two of the enemy's front teeth before you fall down.

"So, from now on... whatever you do, don't mess with me!"

Lu Jin took a deep breath and looked at the faintly glowing orb in his hand, which gave him a slight sense of security.

The mysterious orb of light found in the Ruins can also be used in the real world.

This is good news for Lu Jin; at least for him, there is still hope for him to survive.

"Those who survive a great calamity are sure to have good fortune in the future."

"Breaking Through Dreams"

The panel flashed in front of Lu Jin's eyes.

[Dragon Fist: Beginner (5%)+]

"After acquiring the Dream Essence of Breaking Through Realms, a plus sign appeared next to my cultivation technique."

"It seems like it can improve my proficiency in the technique."

Having been exposed to Earth's culture, he immediately guessed the purpose of the Dream Realm Breakthrough.

This immediately made Lu Jin's eyes light up, filled with longing.

If the Dream Essence of Breaking Realms works well, he could very likely quickly master the Dragon Fist to its highest level.

Without hesitation, Lu Jin immediately clicked the plus sign on the panel, his expression full of anticipation. The ball of light merged into his body, and his deep voice resounded simultaneously.

"Mengyun, come, let me see the limits of your talent!"

"Yes, it's Dragon Fist!"

"Add as much as you want!"

"Fill it up, thank you!"
