High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 136 - 125: Insightful Eyes, Frenzied Advancement! (4K Double - ) (2)
Upon hearing this, Sikong Jiang’s determined expression softened a bit, and he finally nodded.
"I knew it, brother, you are the best."
...
Inside the Grandmaster Tower.
In the void, the sea of clouds surged, and before him appeared a nine-tiered staircase reaching into the sky.
"Ninth Level Stairs, corresponding to the Nine Realms of Martial Artists?"
With a determined expression, Su Mu stepped forward without hesitation onto the first level. Instantly, the first level shone brightly, and suddenly the nine stairs disappeared as the scene changed.
In front of him appeared a vast Martial Arts Arena, with a voice guiding Su Mu forward.
After Su Mu took a few steps, the drifting glows in the void gathered into a mass and slowly condensed into a human figure, identical to Su Mu.
But this time, the figure felt different to Su Mu. Activating his Insightful Eyes, several red lines floated on the figure, the most vivid of which was on the wrist of its right hand.
Taking a deep breath, Su Mu stepped forward again. The figure’s eyes shone with red light and moved instantly, a solid wave of Qi and Blood spreading out, and the figure stepped forward, crossing dozens of meters to attack.
Su Mu’s pupils contracted slightly. The technique the figure displayed was precisely the Extreme Shadow Body Technique he had mastered!
"Extreme Shadow Body Technique?!"
"The Grandmaster Tower is different from the Tower of Power."
"This is meant to challenge oneself... but it comes at the right time!"
Su Mu was worried that his new ability, the Insightful Eyes, couldn’t discern his own weaknesses, and the figure showed up on its own, like being offered a pillow when sleepy.
The next second.
Su Mu took another deep breath and stepped forward, also displaying the Extreme Shadow Body Technique. As they crossed paths, the figure immediately drew a blade.
A surge of Sword Momentum burst forth.
"The Sword Momentum is weak, probably only as strong as when I first comprehended it."
"The proficiency in the Surging Waves Saber Technique is lacking as well. Is it because it’s the first floor?"
Su Mu wasn’t in a hurry and planned to spar with himself a bit longer. Under the Insightful Eyes’ observation of weaknesses, his eyes shone, and he was delighted.
"I didn’t realize there were so many flaws when I displayed the Extreme Shadow Body Technique."
"This is a great opportunity to identify and fix these gaps!"
In a split second, Su Mu and the figure had already exchanged more than ten moves. In battle, he continuously observed the red lines floating on the figure, committing them to memory, and from there, gaining insights, with ongoing realizations in his heart.
...
Outside the Grandmaster Tower, Sikong Jiang was puzzled. He had been here for a while, and the Lin family people had undeniably entered earlier, yet the Grandmaster Tower’s first floor’s blue light remained on.
This indicated the person’s challenge progress was still at the first floor, which shouldn’t be so slow even for a first-time challenge, right?
Thus, Sikong Jiang couldn’t help but glance at the elder. The elder sensed the odd gaze from Sikong Jiang. Sikong Jiang was puzzled, and so was the elder. Su Mu had even managed to defeat Tantai Yan head-on during the Training Camp, so theoretically, his strength shouldn’t be like this.
"What exactly is Su Mu doing?"
However, the elder was here to gather information, and since Sikong Jiang had also arrived, he planned to collect some intelligence from him too, so there was no sign of leaving.
Outside, Xiaoyun from the Provincial Martial Arts Association was also quite puzzled. Even if it was the chief of a remote small city like the Shenjiang Three Cities, their strength shouldn’t be this weak, right?
"It’s been almost an hour, still stuck on the first floor. What is this Su Mu doing?"
No one could answer.
...
"Huh, getting anxious?"
Su Mu, who was getting into the rhythm, suddenly noticed that the white figure opposite was enveloped in a rising crimson light, its aura climbing, and its speed and strength massively increasing.
Su Mu sighed and had no choice but to strike decisively.
"Thanks for your efforts."
He swung a blade, accurately cutting at the red line with infused Sword Momentum. After a violent tremor, the figure dissipated and turned into a cloud of glow.
"What might the glow in the Grandmaster Tower be?"
The next second, the glow floated into his brow.
Instantly, Su Mu felt his Qi and Blood roaring inside, with signs of restlessness. Su Mu was both surprised and delighted, realizing the glow reward in the Grandmaster Tower was incredibly pure, abundant Qi and Blood.
This cloud of glow alone nearly overwhelmed him, and Su Mu immediately cleared his mind. His Five Viscera began to operate madly, suppressing the overwhelming urge to break through, instead focusing the infusion of pure Qi Blood Power into condensed droplets of Condensed Blood.
At this moment, he already had over six hundred droplets of Condensed Blood in his heart. Su Mu planned to gather three thousand droplets in one go to complete the third Qi Blood Bridge reconstruction, so he hadn’t started yet.
After a while, Su Mu opened his eyes, elation on his face.
"Awesome!"
After the refining by Condensed Blood, his Five Viscera were far beyond martial artists of the same tier, reaching an astonishing strength. Only underwater, under multiple gravity time, would his Five Viscera approach their limits.
Aside from this, even when digesting Spirit Marrow, his Five Viscera felt no pressure.
Moreover, when digesting the glow from the Grandmaster Tower this time, Su Mu was able to fully unleash the strength of his Five Viscera once again. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"The Qi Blood Power in the glow of the Grandmaster Tower is extremely pure, almost needing no refining, just circulating it per the Blood Control Secret Technique was enough to form Condensed Blood."
"The glow from the first floor alone provided me with an additional five hundred droplets of Condensed Blood!"
Having tasted the benefit, Su Mu was overjoyed and immediately stepped into the second floor.
...
"Finally, the second floor, it wasn’t easy."
Seeing the second floor’s blue light turn on, those outside the Grandmaster Tower breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, they really thought the person inside might be sleeping in the Grandmaster Tower.
"Who exactly is this inside? How could the Lin family have such an oddball?" Sikong Jiang exhaled lightly, now feeling somewhat frustrated.
If he had known, he would’ve arrived earlier. The time spent on the first floor alone was enough for him to challenge multiple times back and forth.
...
But Su Mu had always had the habit of arriving early.
After the first figure dissipated, the nine stairs reappeared, and Su Mu ascended to the second floor this time.
Similarly, after the scene before him changed, a second Martial Arts Arena appeared, and the Qi and Blood fluctuations on the second figure increased by about thirty percent.
"Not bad, the Sword Momentum is about twenty percent, probably matching my intensity during the Training Camp."
"The Extreme Shadow Body Technique is even faster."
"It seems the initial floors are meant to retrace my path of becoming stronger, and only the later floors will truly surpass myself!"
The understanding in Su Mu’s heart grew stronger, and he couldn’t help but have higher expectations for the subsequent floors.
"Then come on."
Su Mu also adjusted his Sword Momentum to around two levels, then engaged fiercely with the figure. During the battle, he constantly used the Insightful Eyes to observe the changes in the red lines on the figure.
To determine the flaws exposed during battles when executing various Martial Techniques.
This process of identifying and filling gaps with one-on-one targeted guidance was exceptionally reassuring. Throughout it, Su Mu greedily absorbed nutrients.
But it was tough on those waiting outside.
...
"It’s starting again!"
The elder’s mouth twitched as time passed, another hour had gone by since the second floor lit up.
During that time, Sikong Jiang glanced over several times with an expression that seemed to ask, "Exactly which oddball from the Lin family is in there?"
Xiaoyun glanced at her watch, then looked at Sikong Jiang and the elder, sensing the subtle atmosphere and wisely chose silence.
...
"Time passes so quickly... It’s gone berserk again."
Su Mu sighed, finally understanding that joyful times are always short, and he reluctantly made the decisive strike to cut down the figure.
Freed, the figure transformed into a cloud of glow, drifting over.
"Indeed, this time rewarded with even more Qi and Blood!"
Already well-prepared from the last experience, Su Mu suppressed the strong urge to break through and began to frantically refine. In his chest, droplets of Condensed Blood rapidly filled his heart’s interior.
Soon, another six hundred droplets of Condensed Blood had formed.
"The cultivation efficiency surpasses even consuming Spirit Marrow."
"It’s truly the privilege of the Three Cities Training chief; if only I could come a few more times."
At this moment, Su Mu was unaware that the glow rewards only dropped upon the first defeat; subsequent challenges yielded nothing.
"Awesome!"
"Next up, the fourth floor, continue!"
