Chapter 564: The Battle
September 25, 2017
Lu HaiKong's injury had actually been healed much earlier.
Although Zhang Liang's spear pierced through Lu HaiKong's throat, appearing to be a severe wound, in reality, Lu HaiKong had managed to deflect the attack.
He found that healing the wound on his neck didn't consume much of his life energy, and he was able to recover in just a few minutes!
As he healed the wound on his neck, Lu HaiKong also experienced a breakthrough in his strength due to his Fundamental Axe Technique reaching level 50.
With the Fundamental Axe Technique at level 50, Lu HaiKong's strength, physical attributes, and other aspects received a significant boost, and his strength increased directly from 86 to 88.
However, this level of improvement was not what Lu HaiKong desired. Without a solid foundation, abruptly raising the Fundamental Axe Technique to level 50 would make it more challenging for Lu HaiKong to break through in the Fundamental Axe Technique in the future.
There was no other choice; Lu HaiKong was a perfectionist.
Would any other Outsider be as meticulous as him? When gaining skill experience, he would eagerly multiply it several times and allocate it all at once. Only someone with such a freakish talent, requiring less skill experience than others and acquiring skill experience at a faster rate and in greater quantities, would have such meticulousness.
However, after being nearly killed by a spear, Lu HaiKong put this meticulousness aside.
He directly opened the attribute panel and poured all his skill experience into Fundamental Inner Strength without holding back. At this moment, Lu HaiKong had no intention of exploiting the system bug for multiple full-health revivals.
After all, Zhao Yue Er's experience was still fresh in his mind. That girl frequently used this bug, and in the end, she had no choice but to rebirth in melancholy.
As he poured all the massive skill experience, Lu HaiKong's Fundamental Inner Strength instantly reached level 40.
In reality, Lu HaiKong's current main cultivation was the domineering Purple Qi Rising Dragon Scripture. Strictly speaking, Lu HaiKong no longer possessed the Fundamental Inner Strength, as it had already been absorbed by his current main cultivation. However, when Lu HaiKong pushed the level of Fundamental Inner Strength to 40, he still gained numerous benefits.
With Lu HaiKong's forceful advancement, the Purple Qi Rising Dragon Scripture directly broke through to level 7.
Just as Lu HaiKong pushed the Purple Qi Rising Dragon Scripture to level 7, he happened to see Zhang Liang preparing to unleash his ultimate move to defeat Dian Wei. Lu HaiKong couldn't help but exclaim.
In other words, at this moment, Lu HaiKong, standing before Zhang Liang, had reached a strength of 89 points, infinitely close to 90, due to the consecutive improvements in his Fundamental Axe Technique and Purple Qi Rising Dragon Scripture.
In terms of strength, Lu HaiKong was undoubtedly much more formidable than before, but this was not his greatest reliance!
He merely wanted to test, with his current abilities, whether he could break through the barrier of strength 90 under Zhang Liang's overwhelming pressure before using his ultimate reliance.
"A spear? If you dare, try again!"
As he spoke, a purple, overwhelmingly domineering inner force emerged from Lu HaiKong's body.
At the same time, a domineering power surged, and the Savage Wilderness Axe in Lu HaiKong's hand gleamed. The Dragon Spirit between his neck also flashed.
In an instant, Lu HaiKong simultaneously activated Purple Qi Arrives, Unmatched Tyrant, Savage Power from his equipment skill, and Dragon Power!
In a flash, the aura on Lu HaiKong's body skyrocketed to a level comparable to Guan Hai.
This state of Lu HaiKong startled Zhang Liang, but what surprised him the most was Lu HaiKong's warrior trait.
Lu HaiKong's Unmatched Tyrant ability also took effect on Zhang Liang, but it only reduced his strength by one point instead of the intended three. Although the effect was significantly diminished, it still surprised Zhang Liang.
However, it was merely a surprise.
"I didn't expect you to burst out with such strength, but this level of incompetence is far from enough to deal with me!"
A cold glint flashed in Zhang Liang's eyes as he moved swiftly, lunging towards Lu HaiKong with his long spear, which was as swift as lightning, aiming for Lu HaiKong's throat once again!
"Ding!"
This time, Zhang Liang's spear missed its target and was firmly blocked by Lu HaiKong!
"You caught it?" Zhang Liang was slightly taken aback.
"If it weren't for the sudden turn of events, do you think you could have hit me?" Lu HaiKong, wielding the Savage Wilderness Axe, held onto Zhang Liang's spear and smirked.
"Hmph, you've only caught my spear, and you're already getting arrogant? Die!"
Zhang Liang twirled the golden-yellow spear in his hand, creating a dazzling glow that enveloped Lu HaiKong.
Zhang Liang didn't use his full strength. Although Lu HaiKong was strong at this moment, he still wasn't worthy of Zhang Liang's full power. Zhang Liang was only using his primary spear technique!
Zhang Liang's Heaven Shattering Spear Technique was fierce and exquisite. Each thrust seemed to carry the force to shatter the heavens, clearly indicating his intention to defeat Lu HaiKong with his exceptional spear skills.
Zhang Liang had made a mistake. If he had used his strength to suppress Lu HaiKong, the latter wouldn't have lasted long.
However, when it came to using techniques and spear skills, the situation was entirely different.
In this world, Lu HaiKong had an incredible talent for martial arts.
Since arriving in this world over two years ago, he had never stopped practicing martial arts from the moment he first encountered them.
Although Lu HaiKong primarily focused on axe techniques, he had also extensively studied the martial arts of other weapons, especially the commonly used spear and sword. Among these, Lu HaiKong had researched spear techniques the most.
Zhang Liang's Heaven Shattering Spear Technique was both fierce and exquisite, but due to the sudden increase in Zhang Liang's strength, his execution of the technique slightly lacked precision.
Under these circumstances, Lu HaiKong surprisingly held his own against Zhang Liang, exchanging blows with vigor.
Witnessing this, Lu Bu and Guan Yu, who had just caught up, were astonished. They never expected Lu HaiKong to possess such skills!
"It seems I might break through the 90th level under Zhang Liang's pressure!"
As Lu HaiKong blocked Zhang Liang's attacks, he secretly thought to himself.
Unexpectedly, just as this thought emerged, Zhang Liang suddenly unleashed his full power!
"I didn't intend to use my full strength, but I didn't expect you to be somewhat tricky. I'll finish you off!"
Before Lu HaiKong could react to Zhang Liang's words, a tremendous force surged towards him. His hand stung, and the Savage Wilderness Axe in his hand was knocked away.
In the next moment, Zhang Liang's spear once again landed on Lu HaiKong's throat!
This time, Zhang Liang, not taking any chances, swiftly withdrew his spear and thrust it into Lu HaiKong's head.
Surely, with his head pierced, Lu HaiKong must be dead now?
As Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't notice the necklace on Lu HaiKong's chest glowing faintly!
