Chapter 1153: Breakthrough
October 10, 2017
In the abandoned Dragon Locking Palace in Luoyang, the bloodless massacre continued.
Ever since Lu HaiKong discovered that killing Malevolent Spirits could enhance his psychic energy, he became even more enthusiastic. His actions in slaying the spirits became faster, as if he couldn't wait to annihilate every Malevolent Spirit in sight.
He marched down the long corridor, and within a few hundred meters, he had slain over a hundred Malevolent Spirits.
However, despite Lu HaiKong's efforts, the number of Malevolent Spirits in the palace showed no signs of diminishing. Instead, as he ventured deeper, the spirits seemed to multiply, and their abilities gradually strengthened. Initially, their average power was around 80, but by the time he reached the corridor's entrance, it had increased to 85.
It was baffling why there were so many vengeful spirits beneath this ancient capital, and Lu HaiKong wondered if they were remnants of Dong Zhuo's grand formation. However, at this moment, Lu HaiKong had no time to ponder these matters, as he was immersed in the slaughter.
He paid no heed to the number of spirits or their strength; the more, the better. After all, these Malevolent Spirits were merely fodder to enhance his psychic energy. As for their abilities, Lu HaiKong could easily handle them with a single axe strike, whether they were level 80 or 85. Even if they were level 90, it would take him, at most, two strikes.
As Lu HaiKong relentlessly slew the Malevolent Spirits, his psychic energy increased by a full one-third compared to when he first entered.
For most people, such a rapid increase in psychic energy would likely lead to mental confusion or even unconsciousness.
Psychic energy, while beneficial, could be deadly if one's soul wasn't sturdy enough to handle the sudden surge.
However, Lu HaiKong was an exception. Firstly, he had undergone the tempering of three enlightenment dungeons: Mountain Splitting Axe, Sea Shattering Axe, and Sky Severing, which he had comprehended during his breakthrough in front of Cheng Yaojin and the others. As a result, his psychic energy was not only powerful but also incredibly resilient.
With his naturally resilient psychic energy, Lu HaiKong effortlessly absorbed and transformed the energy from the Malevolent Spirits into his own.
Initially, Lu HaiKong believed that psychic energy was only related to politics and had little significance for martial artists. However, as his psychic energy continued to grow, he realized his mistake.
With the increase in psychic energy, Lu HaiKong's mind became remarkably clear, and even his cognitive processing speed seemed to improve. Many martial arts concepts that had previously eluded him now appeared to be within his grasp.
Upon recognizing this, Lu HaiKong's eyes lit up. Seeing that there were still countless Malevolent Spirits ahead, he took out a bottle of pills from his spatial ring and swallowed them without hesitation.
In one gulp, Lu HaiKong consumed an entire bottle of Excellent-grade pills, specially crafted by Hua Tuo, meant to replenish one's inner power.
Each pill could restore the entire inner power of a martial general with a strength of 90 within an hour, and there were fifteen pills in total. Lu HaiKong gulped them down in one go, displaying a hint of madness.
After consuming the pills, the purple inner power within Lu HaiKong became even more dazzling. His killing speed instantly increased, and he entered a frenzy of monster-slaying.
What's more, Lu HaiKong's focus intensified as he began to simultaneously slaughter monsters and mentally rehearse his martial arts techniques and skills.
As Lu HaiKong continued his relentless slaughter, a chilling sensation constantly assaulted his mind, stimulating his thoughts to an unprecedented level, bringing him to a state of sudden enlightenment.
In this state, not only did Lu HaiKong's cultivation speed increase significantly, but his aura also solidified and intensified. The enhancement of his psychic energy seemed to have a profound effect on his aura. Meanwhile, on his attribute panel, his political and strategic attributes, which were initially in the 70s, began to soar. Everything seemed to be developing in a favorable direction.
When Lu HaiKong first entered this instance, he felt it was full of pitfalls, and the system seemed to have no love for him. But now, he felt like the system's favorite child.
This wasn't just any instance; it was a custom-made training ground for Lu HaiKong.
With the environment here and his own resources, if everything went smoothly, by the time he left this instance, he would be able to effortlessly defeat Huang Zhong, even without breaking a hundred in martial power. He might even reach the heights of Pei Yuan Qing.
Lu HaiKong almost forgot why he had come to this instance as he hacked his way out of the tunnel and unleashed a frenzy of slaughter within the Abandoned Dragon Locking Pavilion. The mission seemed to have completely slipped his mind.
The Malevolent Spirits within the Dragon Locking Palace were evidently much stronger than those outside, with most of them having levels in the 85-89 range, and a few even reaching around 90.
However, these Malevolent Spirits possessed intelligence. Despite their bloodthirsty nature, they weren't foolish. When they encountered Lu HaiKong, a terrifyingly powerful being who could suppress them and was clearly in a killing frenzy, they knew better than to engage him.
The Malevolent Spirits above level 90 would usually flee upon spotting Lu HaiKong from a distance, showing no intention of challenging him. They knew that if they were careless, they would be swiftly defeated, so they dared not take any risks.
Even with their ability to dodge, some of them would inevitably collide with Lu HaiKong during his frenzied charge. Many Malevolent Spirits above level 90 were struck by his axe.
In a 16-9-1-6-1-9-1-8-1-0 version!
These Malevolent Spirits, being above level 90, couldn't possibly defeat Lu HaiKong in a fight, but they could run. Even if they were struck by his axe, they could usually escape.
Until one particularly unlucky spirit, while attempting to dodge, was locked onto by Lu HaiKong's aura.
Lu HaiKong unleashed his Mountain Splitting Axe, and the unfortunate Malevolent Spirit, being above level 90, couldn't even run. It was instantly taken down by Lu HaiKong's axe.
As Lu HaiKong slew this Malevolent Spirit above level 90, his already abundant psychic energy surged even further.
Coincidentally, Lu HaiKong's political and strategic attributes had already reached 79, and with this axe strike, as his psychic energy advanced, so did his political and strategic attributes.
At that moment, a golden light shone from Lu HaiKong's body, enveloping him completely!
