Chapter 383: Adamantine Body Fist Intent
Chapter 383: Adamantine Body Fist Intent (Requesting Monthly Votes)
"Gurgle~"
Lin Qi chugged his Energy Brew, his mind replaying the Third Killing Move over and over, analyzing each detail of its execution.
His Sky-Shaking Spear Techniques' Third Killing Move—Mountain Sundering—was now perfected. Next, he needed to fully grasp the spear's martial intent to break through to the Fourth Circle.
Everything in this world carried its own essence. Once he mastered one, understanding others would become easier.
The hardest part was the beginning. Right now, his best hope lay in Adamantine Body Fist.
Once his fist techniques broke through and he grasped martial intent, it would trigger a chain reaction—both his spear techniques and body cultivation would follow.
After finishing his thoughts, he found the Martial Arts Training Hall already cleaned up. He resumed practicing spear techniques, solidifying his newly mastered Third Killing Move.
……
The next day,
At Azure Firmament First Institute, Li Zehao drove his family's electric car. As classmates waved greetings, he ignored them all.
His heart raced with excitement as he returned to his villa. Cradling a silver Obsidian Steel Case, he entered the Martial Arts Training Hall and slowly opened it.
Inside lay a syringe-type Elixir. A user manual beside it took only a glance to understand.
He picked up the Elixir, revealing the sharp needle. With practiced ease, he pierced his skin and injected the dark green liquid into his body.
That was all it required.
"Now, time for my innate talent to transform."
Li Zehao's body trembled with excitement. Suddenly, agonizing pain erupted from within.
"Ahh!!"
He collapsed to the floor, writhing in pain. His body was changing—something terrifying—but soon, the pain transformed into surging power.
Though suffering, he clearly felt himself growing stronger.
……
Meanwhile, Yu Jing was undergoing the same transformation.
Knowing the intense pain involved, he'd prepared a towel to bite down on.
Compared to his previous experience, this time he distinctly felt himself getting stronger.
"This feeling! Let it come even harder!"
"I need a stronger innate talent! I'll become a Nine Realms Martial Artist!"
"Lin Qi, I'll surpass you!"
As power surged through him, Yu Jing's eyes burned with madness. His face contorted, unaware that his mindset had already started changing.
Alongside his rising strength came a flood of negative emotions. Towards Lin Qi—an unprecedented murderous intent.
He wasn't alone. Across Azure Firmament Martial Academy, countless students underwent the same process.
In a distant secret base, the scaly-masked leader chuckled:
"About time they took it."
"In half a month comes the Disaster Beast Hunting Competition."
"A perfect opportunity."
"Even gifted martial artists struggle to kill awakened geniuses alone."
"But what if ten attack together?"
……
At Ten Institute's Crimson Vault Building,
The Deputy Principal's starry projection shimmered across a massive screen—a map showing each of the nine academies' dormitories.
Xu Wenji, his beard flecked with gray, smiled at the display.
"What a grand plan..."
"Pity so many promising talents will fall. The forest grows thick with birds of all kinds. I've already given you chances."
"Innate talents, power... human desires never find satisfaction."
He sighed, muttering to himself:
"Let's sweep Azure Firmament Martial Academy clean during the Disaster Beast Hunting Competition."
……
Time passed quietly until August 13th.
Azure Firmament Martial Academy's first month ended as students learned about the upcoming Disaster Beast Hunting Competition.
Simultaneously, the academy website announced reforms—Ten Institute's awakened geniuses would unite for Otherworld Elite Training Camp.
The news shook both freshmen and seniors alike.
The Azure Firmament Forum exploded with discussion:
"Whoa! All Xia Kingdom's awakened geniuses gathered together? Competing against each other? S-Rank, SS-Rank, even Sss-Rank monsters included?!"
"Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl!"
"They're Xia Kingdom's future on Blue Planet. Of course competition's fierce."
"They carry humanity's future. High stakes make sense."
"We're just regular geniuses suddenly feeling okay with ourselves."
Ten Institute students felt the pressure most acutely.
Rivalry was human nature. For martial artists, competitiveness was in their bones.
Gathered geniuses naturally wanted to prove superiority. No one wanted to fall behind.
Each carried pride and confidence. To avoid the bitterness of lagging behind, competition was inevitable.
[35th Ten Institute Family Group (20 Members)]
[Wan Ming: Holy hell, the reforms are real! All awakened geniuses competing together? Pressure's crushing!]
[Pei Jiu: Three academies' awakened geniuses? I might not even rank.]
[Xia Lian: Ninth Brother, you're SS-Rank Genius! Why fear? We S-Rank Geniuses will bottom out.]
[Han Zhen: I'll be last again.]
Chu Yu: I think this elite camp sounds fun (grinning)
[Others:……]
Wan Ming stared blankly at Chu Yu's message. As an Sss-Rank Genius, he'd dominate the elite training.
Naturally thrilled by such competition.
……
Chu Yu smiled at his phone.
"All awakened geniuses—including other Sss-Rankers. Curious who's stronger."
His lifelong goal had always been Sss-Rank Genius.
The strongest talents on Blue Planet. True prodigies.
Their innate gifts grew stronger without limit. The only question was who stood highest.
His blood boiled with excitement.
……
In 313 Gravity Chamber,
Lin Qi set aside his phone, surprised by the group news.
His eyes lit up—he shared Chu Yu's excitement.
Gathering all geniuses would reveal his own gaps.
Only by seeing differences could he strive to catch up.
Seniors, final-year SS-Rank Geniuses, Sss-Rankers.
Competition would ignite his potential.
He'd always felt his innate talent high but underdeveloped—mainly due to insufficient pressure.
Recently, Chu Yu's Sss-Rank presence had pushed him hard.
"Phew—"
He changed into training robes, drank an Organ Cultivation Stage Serum, and began today's practice.
"Xiaochan, activate 11x Gravity Mode!"
"Activating!"
The screen flashed "11x" as oppressive gravity waves crashed down.
Golden Edge power surged as he clenched his fists. Veins bulged with golden patterns across his skin. His heart thundered like war drums:
"Boom! Boom!"
Gradually, his body adjusted.
He assumed his stance and began Adamantine Body Fist—First Form: Void Sundering!
Golden blades enveloped his fists like armor. Every muscle—from largest to smallest—responded to his will.
Golden Edge flowed like water, gathering into concentrated blades. With a punch, they cleaved air itself.
Void Sundering—shattering all before him.
Thousand Shadows—controlling Golden Edge to split and merge like flowing water.
Bodyguard—condensing golden blades into armor for protection.
Earth Shattering—channeling Golden Edge through ground into devastating shockwaves.
Unity—condensing power into singular focus, absolute mastery.
"Boom! Boom!"
Form after form shattered air. Gravity itself tore apart.
Lin Qi immersed himself in fist techniques, his will merging completely.
Adamantine Body—what did it mean?
In martial epochs, in Buddhism and combat, it represented unbreakable, eternal power and spirit.
Strength and essence combined.
As he punched, power surged outward. His will fused with technique.
Martial intent was formless power—the formless fusion of nature, spirit, and cosmos.
Unconsciously, Lin Qi felt himself becoming "Adamantine Body."
Mysterious power surged through him.
The golden glow intensified.
"Boom!"
Throwing another punch, memories surged—why he trained.
Originally, he'd been ordinary when disaster beasts invaded. Becoming a martial artist promised a better future.
Martial artists earned wealth, improving lives.
During the Disaster Tide, beasts ravaged cities. His parents suffered. Then, he vowed to kill all disaster beasts.
Two lifetimes taught him—"tall people watch the sky." Protect country and home.
Now with unmatched innate talent, his future as Blue Planet's "tall one" was certain.
His true heart never changed.
Grow stronger!
Resist disaster beasts!
Protect both nation and family!
With this resolve, Lin Qi's eyes burned as his entire being fused with fist techniques.
"Boom!!"
Golden Edge power surged under his command, merging with fist techniques. His spiritual will ignited the final breakthrough.
One final punch!
All his strength erupted—suddenly, he felt it.
Adamantine Body Fist Intent!
"Boom!!!"
The punch shattered gravity waves, sending shockwaves rippling through space, unleashing howling winds.
