Chapter 225: Breakthrough – Third Stage Spear Techniques
Chapter 225: Breakthrough – Third Stage Spear Techniques (Requesting Monthly Vote)
A low hum resonated through the Gravity Chamber as an invisible gravitational force surged like a tidal wave, enveloping the entire Martial Arts Training Hall. The pressure pressed against every inch of Lin Qi’s body—skin, organs, muscles, blood, tendons, bones, cells—activating every system within him as they resisted the crushing force.
His breath quickened under sixfold gravity, his heart pounding like a war drum, yet still pumping blood through his body like a roaring river to counteract the strain. Adjusting his breathing to steady himself, Lin Qi raised his fists and began practicing Five Elements Boxing.
“Refining my Fist Techniques will help me control my muscular strength,” he mused. “Though my recent breakthrough to the Third Stage gave me better command, my mastery still needs sharpening.”
His fingers curled into tiger claws, striking through the oppressive gravity. Veins bulged like steel cables beneath his skin, each move a battle against resistance. Every muscle in his body strained in unison, his consciousness weaving their power together. His skin burned from the Skin Tempering Balm’s prickling sensation, but he pressed on.
Third Stage techniques, whether fists or spears, required complete control over every muscle, consolidating strength into a singular force. As Lin Qi moved, he felt the energy coalescing—like countless streams merging into a mighty ocean, surging with enough power to shatter mountains. Each strike now carried explosive potential, capable of punching through stone walls.
Cracks split the air as his fists unleashed bursts of Vital Force against the gravitational field, producing low, thunderous booms. Suddenly, his movements felt lighter—effortless.
【You’ve significantly improved your Fist Techniques under sixfold gravity. Fist Techniques +5%】
【Fist Techniques: Third Stage 2% → Third Stage 7%】
Lin Qi exhaled, his expression calm as he acknowledged the progress. Without lingering, he retrieved a black metal cylinder from the ground, pulling out a pitch-black training spear. His true training had only just begun.
Plucking the spear, he sent vibrations humming through its shaft, Vital Force coursing within. With a deep breath, he swung the weapon, launching into his Spear Techniques. “My fists have advanced. Now it’s time for my spear to break through to the Third Stage!”
His gaze hardened. The Ten Institute’s prodigies with awakened Special Abilities loomed over him like an immovable mountain. Stuck at 99% mastery of the Second Stage for weeks, he now seized the moment to push forward.
His aura shifted, erupting with unrestrained might as he initiated the Split Mountain Spear Techniques. Starting with the first form—Windshatter Thrust.
Under sixfold gravity, his movements slowed, yet the resistance heightened his awareness of each muscle’s shift and every ripple of Vital Force. Transitioning into the Meteoric Spear Art, his style transformed from relentless power to lightning-fast strikes, his control over Vital Force adapting seamlessly.
Dawn Severance, Stellar Lance (Starlight Piercer), Viper Shadow, Eagle Soar Thrust…
Then his techniques shifted again, becoming as immovable as an Unyielding Pillar. His aura grew heavy, unshakable. The spear stilled, like an Adamantine Body standing unbroken in the world, holding infinite potential. This was the Adamantine Body Spear Techniques—a style rooted in stillness, waiting to strike.
Three distinct Vital Force flows cycled through his body, each subtly different in muscle control. Lin Qi poured himself into the practice, his Mind’s Eye Talent operating at full capacity. Perceiving, refining, understanding…
His mastery climbed—93%, 94%, 95%, 96%… Sweat dripped as his body screamed with fatigue, but he ignored it entirely. The energy network in his mind expanded like a web, linking every muscle.
Almost there!
Gritting his teeth, eyes bloodshot, he pushed his senses further. 97%, 98%, 99%… 100%!
A sudden clarity washed over him. He moved—every muscle obeyed. His spear struck with perfect precision, and an overwhelming joy erupted within.
He’d broken through!
Gripping the long spear, he unleashed his techniques. The weapon sliced the air with piercing whistles, yet under sixfold gravity, his body felt weightless. His consciousness wove through his muscles like a spider’s silk, controlling each fiber’s contraction and coordination with mechanical precision.
This was the Third Stage of Spear Techniques—Perfection. Total unity of mind and body. Every thrust, sweep, or parry adjusted effortlessly at the slightest thought, power flowing seamlessly to the spear’s tip without loss.
Compared to his former Second Stage self, he was now an entirely different warrior. Even with equal Vital Energy stats, he could now easily defeat his past self at 99% mastery of the Second Stage.
Suddenly, he halted, staring at his spear. A thought struck him. “Since I’ve reached the Third Stage, it’s time to master the Split Mountain Spear Techniques’ Third Annihilation Move.”
His eyes blazed as he visualized the technique. His stance rooted like an ancient oak, legs ironclad, muscles bulging. Power surged through his body, every Vital Force channel converging—rivers merging into an ocean. He channeled 100% of his energy into the training spear.
The weapon vibrated violently, buzzing like an angry hornet. “Now!”
With a roar, he drove the spear forward. Vital Force condensed into a piercing cone, compressing the air into a white-hot ring as it erupted toward its target.
Split Mountain Spear Techniques – Third Annihilation Move: Mountain Sunder!
The spear lashed out like a cannonball, shockwaves rippling outward in a deafening explosion of raw, unbridled power.
