In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 77 Buy the best armored weapons!

The Federation of Humans is different from the other world.

This place boasts advanced technologies, a mature and unified social structure, a vast and boundless starry sky, and interdimensional battlefields that delve into numerous other worlds.

The number of people, the technology, and the wealth are all of great value here in the pursuit of martial arts.

In addition to his own cheat-like abilities, Shen Xing does indeed need to establish and develop his power within the Human Federation in order to maximize the benefits of both worlds.

This was the first time he had revealed his ambition to reach the top to anyone else.

However, Xiaoling did not feel arrogant because of this; on the contrary, she gradually became excited.

She won't be abandoned as long as the boss has needs.

The greater the boss's ambition, the more opportunities she will have!

"Understood, I won't let the boss down!" Xiaoling had a lot to say, but in the end, it all boiled down to this one sentence.

"Hehe." Shen Xing chuckled twice. "I will still provide you with pills in the future, but the focus will no longer be on making money. The proceeds from the sales will be used to develop channels and cultivate capable personnel. I will keep an eye on it. In addition, I need to see some results, such as this 'Spider Web' mission. You know how to do it, right?"

"One day! Just one day, and I will have detailed information!" Xiaoling made a firm commitment.

It's clear that she radiates a completely different aura now compared to when we first met.

This is a girl who will unleash tremendous potential if given the opportunity.

"I'm waiting for your information." Shen Xing stood up. "If the result satisfies me, I'll buy you a high-quality martial arts manual as a reward. Keep up the good work."

"Understood!" Xiaoling's breath hitched.

When she first saw those enormous numbers, she felt no longing, but rather fear. But now, a high-quality martial arts concept ignited a flame within her.

It's unclear whether what attracted her was the reward itself or the boss's approval.

However, for Shen Xing, enthusiasm is important, but results are equally important.

He was getting ready to go back.

I came here today to take care of some things here.

For him, what truly matters is his own spiritual practice.

On the way back, Shen Xing didn't waste any time. He opened the military system software again and immediately saw his new level.

—Sergeant!

There are four ranks of non-commissioned officers: corporal, sergeant, senior sergeant, and warrant officer.

Among them, a sergeant needs to accumulate 500,000 military merit points, a senior sergeant needs 1 million, and a warrant officer needs 2.5 million.

Shen Xing now has a total of 1.73 million military merit points!

Of these, 850,000 were from registering "Nine Shadows Body Technique".

Even if it's just a Class III martial arts conception, it's still top-tier. The weakened version isn't without value; on the contrary, sometimes weakening can lower the difficulty of cultivation, allowing some people who couldn't cultivate the "Phantom Movement Technique" to cultivate the "Nine Shadow Movement Technique," so the military merit points are still the same.

The other three gates also each provided a considerable amount of military merit points.

Now, Shen Xing's accumulated military merit points have exceeded two million, and he is not far from becoming a warrant officer.

However, Shen Xing soon discovered that the number of military merit points required to jump from sergeant to lieutenant was also a huge leap. The number of military merit points required for a second lieutenant was a whopping eight million!

Even if it's accumulated, it's still a huge number.

But considering that I was only at the Body Refinement stage, I felt relieved.

Compared to others, he could level up simply by transferring martial arts intent, which was not much different from cheating.

"With the rank of sergeant, I should be able to buy a decent set of armor, right?" Shen Xing opened the military system market.

The "full-coverage armor" that Nangong Jinyi mentioned earlier is actually one of the basic equipment for martial artists on the battlefield.

For a martial artist, the most powerful thing is still their own body.

Therefore, fully automated auxiliary mechanical devices like PODs can only be considered as additional independent combat units.

The armor may differ.

The function of armor is to directly enhance the warrior's own strength, which can multiply the warrior's combat power, not to mention the powerful defensive capabilities, flight capabilities, and even various auxiliary firepower.

Those super-large mechs are not popular in this era, but close-fitting armor has always been the mainstream.

After all, it was actually developed from the most primitive armor and is highly compatible with the combat characteristics of martial artists.

Once he reaches the rank of sergeant, Shen Xing will be able to purchase a high-end, powerful full-body armor set.

"I'm pursuing a balanced development path. Strength, speed, and attack power are all important, so I need to choose armor characteristics that are more balanced. Why are they all innate-level armor? I don't need that level yet." Shen Xing made a gesture, directly restricting the armor for the Body Refinement stage.

The main characteristic of innate-level armor is its ability to conduct elemental energy. After all, once you reach the innate level, you can form substantial elemental energy within your body and exert various powerful effects. Therefore, the elemental energy conductivity of the armor material is the most important factor.

It requires special materials and is expensive.

However, this requirement does not apply during the body training period.

Using innate-level armor would be a waste, and would instead reduce other features.

Sure enough, after the restrictions were imposed, the remaining goods, both in terms of price and quantity, decreased significantly.

After all, those at the Innate level and above are the main force on the battlefield of another world.

Shen Xing immediately took a liking to the most expensive one among them.

The model name is Black Lotus Reaper A1.

Simply put, it looks incredibly cool.

The entire suit is predominantly black with bright red patterns. It features six multi-functional heavy cannons extending from its back like spider legs, which also serve as propulsion systems, adding both firepower and mobility to the armor. The armor's curves are extremely smooth, and you can even see the metallic muscle lines on its limbs. This power design, which completely simulates the human body's strength model, allows it to unleash the user's strength many times over. It is even equipped with a miniature nuclear battery, ensuring equally powerful endurance.

Shen Xing was very satisfied with both the appearance and the features.

As for the high price?

Expensive means good!

Shen Xing had considerable faith in the official market pricing. Since this armor was priced at the highest level among armors for the Body Refinement stage, it meant that its quality was also the highest.

It's just 980,000 military merit points plus 280 million federal dollars.

I bought it!

With a wave of his hand, Shen Xing lost more than half of the military merit points he had just earned, but he didn't care at all. This armor was enough for him to use until the training phase.

In addition, Shen Xing bought two more PODs that were more suitable for urban street fighting. They were cheaper than the previous one, but smaller and more concealed.

As for other things, such as electronic intrusion devices, we prepared some according to the suggestions in Nangong Jinyi's materials, and they weren't expensive.

As for the rest, we'll have to wait for Xiaoling's intelligence to arrive before we can see.

Subsequently, Shen Xing reopened the martial arts concept market.

His movement technique has been finalized; he now needs to learn a top-tier sword technique for attack, preferably one similar to the characteristics of the Flash Blade.

Now that the Flash Blade technique has been mastered, practicing other sword techniques with similar characteristics will greatly benefit the training.

However, by simply searching for top-level martial arts concepts in the "Quick Blade" category, Shen Xing actually found a powerful one.

—Lightning.

This top-tier sword-based martial arts technique is priced at a whopping 320 million, even more expensive than the Dragon Elephant Body Technique, which is in line with the price characteristics of sword-based martial arts techniques.

However, it only has one cut.

The description says that it was created by a sixth-realm expert who observed lightning for more than seventy years on a planet completely covered by thunderclouds. Once created, it was the martial arts conception of the fifth realm. The previous basic versions were all weakened layer by layer.

They all only required one cut!

When unleashed, lightning flashes, its power and speed concentrated to the extreme, like thunder descending upon the world, reaching the pinnacle of perfection! If one can cultivate it to perfection, then among those of the same realm, as long as the right opportunity is found, it will be almost unstoppable.

Moreover, the way to improve the efficiency of cultivation is also very simple.

In addition to sufficient replenishment of vital energy, only a certain intensity of electric current is needed for stimulation. There are specially designed training aids for this purpose. In addition, there is a training resource called "Thunderstone" that can assist in training.

Furthermore, the Flash Blade technique was also inspired by observing lightning.

With a foundation in Flash Blade, Shen Xing was confident that he could master it in a short time.

At this point, Shen Xing had selected the most suitable and preferred top-level martial arts concepts in the three categories of physique, movement, and attack. He was completely satisfied and had an urge to train hard and make a big splash.

After returning to his dormitory, he first finished learning the movement techniques and then began his practice.

A day later, Lei Shan finished his studies, and the relevant equipment and resources were delivered to him.

Shen Xing also learned that the so-called "Thunder Stone" is actually a mineral containing special energy. When used, it is placed in the device and, under the stimulation of electric current, it is continuously integrated into the body to improve the efficiency of lightning cultivation.

The process wasn't exactly comfortable, but the results were remarkable.

This also made Shen Xing realize that resources are not just pills.

I wonder if something similar can be found in another world.

Furthermore, Lightning Flash indeed shares similarities with Flash Blade. During his training, Shen Xing could clearly perceive that the insights and experience gained from Flash Blade were rapidly merging into Lightning Flash, improving his progress.

He also gave a detailed demonstration of how to integrate with the "space".

It must be said that at extreme speeds, the acceleration of space can be perfectly integrated, directly elevating the power of lightning to a new level.

Although it has not yet reached the level of minor mastery, it can still display power beyond that level.

"Perhaps this is the correct way to use the One Realm Space." Shen Xing was quite satisfied.

In fact, when he used the Flash Blade before, he realized that although the space was powerful, at the first level, he could only simply stretch or shrink the space.

It is more suitable for use as an auxiliary tool.

Moreover, the more powerful the martial arts conception it is used in, the more concealed it becomes.
