Martial Arts Overlord!

"You son of a bitch!"

Lu Jin cursed inwardly, under the watchful gaze of his Heavenly Eye.

In the darkness of the eternal night, a giant sword is hurtling through the air.

The sword was wider than the man himself, and the nicks and cracks on the blade emitted a piercing shriek as it flew at high speed. Wherever it passed, the air was torn into two white waves of air, as if the eternal night had been cleaved open with a wound!

"call out!"

Like a beam of light, the giant sword traversed an immeasurable distance and precisely locked onto his position.

Danger warnings exploded in his mind, and Lu Jin quickly gritted his teeth to regain his composure.

In an instant, his figure disappeared from the spot. He pushed the Bagua Dragon Step to its limit and within a few breaths, he moved hundreds of meters to the side.

A few seconds later, the greatsword flew past the spot where he had just been standing, and the tip of the sword embedded itself in the ground!

Boom!!

boom! !

The ground exploded the instant it touched the sword tip, and a crater more than 100 meters in diameter collapsed around the point of impact!

The cracks spread wildly from the edge of the pit outwards, and the surrounding ruins were blown away like building blocks by the impact of the shockwave.

Even Lu Jin felt the terror of that shockwave!

This was the strongest shockwave he had ever seen!

"hiss!!"

Lu Jin landed not far away, glanced back at the sinkhole that was still collapsing, and felt a chill run down his spine as his training clothes were soaked with cold sweat.

If he hadn't sensed danger in advance, he wouldn't have been able to dodge that sword strike.

The giant wielding the sword was still some distance away; it had only thrown the sword at them!

It's clear that their strength is truly extraordinary!

I wonder what good things I'll get after killing this fist slave.

"Oh shit."

Lu Jin gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing, and his voice squeezed out from between his teeth.

"Just you wait, I'll kill you sooner or later, and very soon."

Lu Jin didn't waste any more time.

Since the giant with the sword was able to throw the sword here, it means it is moving in this direction.

With his current strength, a direct confrontation would be suicide.

But with each breath he took in the Eternal Night Ruins, he grew stronger, while the monster did not.

That's his biggest advantage!

He believed that in a few days, the next time he entered the Eternal Night Ruins, it would be the monster's death day!

Lu Jin turned around and sped off towards the area that had not yet been cleared.

In the remaining six areas—Changhe District, Tianshu District, Luocheng District…Lu Jin frantically used the automatic pickup function in each area to draw all the remaining light clusters. The light bands converged into golden rivers in the eternal night sky, surging towards his body from all directions.

The numbers on the panel jumped wildly as Lu Jin absorbed the last area completely.

His attributes have made a qualitative leap!

Attack: 846.4 → 966.7

Speed: 685.3 → 805.6

[Defense: 702.8→823.1]

[Stamina: 691.5→811.8]

[Spirit: 232.6→352.9]

[Willpower: 238.2 → 358.5]

[Common-grade Breakthrough Dream Essence: 47 pieces, Advanced-grade Breakthrough Dream Essence: 25 pieces, Rare-grade Breakthrough Dream Essence: 10 pieces, Ultimate Mystic Pearl: 6 pieces]

"Although this Eternal Night Return to the Void was dangerous, it was definitely a huge win!"

"Although I am currently at the second level of Bone Forging, I am already invincible within the Bone Forging Realm."

Lu Jin clenched his fist. Martial arts, to put it bluntly, is all about numbers.

If you had the power levels like in One-Punch Man from a certain manga, it wouldn't matter what level you were at.

One punch and he's dead!

Lu Jin felt that he was getting closer and closer to becoming a numerical monster.

"I wonder what the stats for Extreme Realm will be."

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow. According to the classification of martial arts, any martial artist who has tempered their flesh, bones and muscles four times has the opportunity to enter the extreme realm.

This realm not only gives martial artists an opportunity to comprehend the essence of the art, but most importantly, it allows their flesh, muscles, and bones to achieve another qualitative leap.

According to Lu Jin's understanding, a person who reaches the extreme realm is equivalent to breaking through the fifth realm in terms of skin, flesh, and bones, and the whole person, as a "container", becomes much larger.

When one reaches the next stage of the Refining Essence Realm, the amount of essence contained within will be even greater, and the difference in strength and lifespan will be enormous.

Therefore, any martial artist with a bit of ambition will try their best to lay a solid foundation. Even setting aside strength, adding a few more years to one's lifespan is something many people dream of.

"No matter how you look at it, you're not as good as me."

"I am invincible! They can do whatever they want with me!"

Lu Jin took a deep breath. At this moment, he had completely collected all the remaining light orbs left after the deaths of the fist slaves in all areas of Pingshui City except for the inner city.

Feeling the surging power within me, all I can say is that it feels amazing.

But it's still not enough.

Even with these attribute increases, there's still no guarantee of victory in a head-on confrontation with the sword-wielding giant in the inner city.

"It's time to come back, why won't you let me come back this time?"

"I need to come back."

Lu Jin frowned. He had done everything he needed to do. If he stayed in the Eternal Night Ruins any longer, he would likely be hunted down by that sword-wielding giant.

seriously.

Lu Jin was a little scared; the Eternal Night Void wouldn't let him go back.

Before, I was afraid to let him in; now I'm afraid to let him go back.

The danger perception gave no warning. Lu Jin looked around at his surroundings. He was currently standing near the Tianlei Martial Arts School branch in Luocheng District.

Tianlei Martial Arts School, along with their Tianlong Martial Arts School, is listed as one of the four major martial arts schools in the country.

Xu Cheng, a colleague Lu Jin met when he worked as a security guard at a bar, was a student at the Tianlei Martial Arts Academy.

However, by this time, the grass on Xu Cheng's grave was already several meters tall.

"We could go and take a look."

With this in mind, Lu Jin entered the Thunder Martial Arts Hall, hoping to find more clues about the monster fist slave disaster.

It's okay if you don't watch it.

Upon seeing this, Lu Jinren was somewhat dumbfounded.

He found a record of a martial arts association meeting inside the Tianlei Martial Arts Hall.

Because the inner city master of Tianlei Martial Arts School also serves as the vice president of Pingshui City Martial Arts Association.

This document discusses only one topic!

—Seven days later in the real world, in the Heavenly Realm, Lu Jin died!

"I'm fucking dead again!"

"Didn't you die two months later last time?"

Lu Jin's finger stopped on the paper, and his pupils contracted slightly.

Seven days.

The newspaper I saw in the media building said he would die in two months.

The document now states seven days from now.

"Did I change the future because I did something in reality?"

Lu Jin thought that this was the only possibility. In reality, he killed Jin Hu, the doctor, and three core members of the Holy God Cult. These actions changed the course of the future.

"Heaven on Earth?" Lu Jin murmured these four words. "It's a private club, isn't it?"

"I don't seem like the type of person who would go here."

Seven days later, he will die in a club.

How did he die?

Who killed him?

Holy Spirit Church?

Or someone else?

"I'd like to see what kind of monsters and demons this place is."

Just as Lu Jin was pondering, the danger perception alarm went off again.

It was even more violent than when the giant sword flew over, and a chilling sense of crisis surged from all directions like a tidal wave, every pore of my skin sending out warnings.

Lu Jin suddenly looked up, and at the end of his Heavenly Eye's field of vision, through the window of the martial arts hall, an incomparably terrifying sword aura was rushing towards them!

Damn it.

Lu Jin gritted his teeth, about to push his movement technique to its limit.

Suddenly, the world spun around.

A familiar wave of dizziness washed over him. The darkness of the eternal night receded rapidly before his eyes.

next second.

Lu Jin opened his eyes!

The training room on the top floor of Tianlong Martial Arts School has floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the lights of the inner city, and the sound of vehicles passing by in the distance.

The phone screen was still lit up, displaying the flower delivery message sent by the front desk.

Everything was exactly the same as when he entered the Eternal Night Ruins, as if everything Lu Jin had just experienced was a dream.

"call---!"

Lu Jin was panting heavily, leaning against the wall, sweat dripping down his face and onto the floor.

Almost.

It was so close.

If he had returned a few seconds later, that sword energy would have been right in his face.

"Such an awesome existence is not allowed in the Eternal Night Ruins!!"

"I'll kill you next time!"

Lu Jin's pupils flickered. Ever since he had boosted his attributes, he had been able to easily defeat the fist slave monsters he encountered in the Eternal Night Ruins. He hadn't experienced the feeling of being on the verge of death for a long time.

But I got to try it again today!

And that document, seven days later, Heaven and Earth.

Immediately, Lu Jin took out his phone and checked the information—[Heaven on Earth, the best paradise for men in Pingshui City? The boss is called Song Xiaolong, a famous swordsman and gunman in Pingshui City…]

"I don't know this person at all, and I would never go to a place like this, so why am I dying here?"

Thinking of this, Lu Jin clenched his fists. The unknown dangers, coupled with the sword-wielding giant in the Eternal Night Ruins, made him extremely annoyed!

Golden dragon scales faintly appeared on his knuckles, but he forcibly suppressed them.

"Let's put the sword-wielding giant aside for now. If we really do enter the Eternal Night Void every day for the next few days, I'll just run away."

His voice was very low, so low it sounded like he was giving a command to himself.

"but…"

"I'd like to see who can kill me a week from now!"

Lu Jin's eyes were cold. He raised his right hand and swiped open the panel of the Extreme Modifier in the void.

All the martial arts techniques were followed by a dense array of plus signs.

All five martial arts techniques—Hurricane Holy Fist, Dragon Subduing Palm, Heart-Shattering Palm, Azure Dragon Sky-Shattering Claw, and True Dragon Sea-Exploring Spear—show plus signs.

"Max out all the power!"
