Vast Sea, Single Grain

"1502007kg"

"1503402kg"

"1502800kg"

The hotel had a private training room. Yue Ming was currently testing his punching power. Each punch carried a sonic boom, hitting the punching bag of the power testing machine like cannonballs. The bag vibrated violently, and a string of numbers appeared on the screen.

An ordinary peak High-level War God had a strength of around 500,000kg. Yue Ming's strength, however, reached 1.5 million kg. This was all thanks to his triple gene. Moreover, it wasn't just his strength; all aspects of Yue Ming's physical fitness were three times that of an ordinary person.

"Rumble!"

"4510750kg"

Yue Ming stomped his feet, and the force instantly transmitted from his legs to his waist and hips. His entire body rippled like water, unleashing four layers of hidden force. His fist, accompanied by the roar of a sonic boom, smashed heavily onto the punching bag.

Under the triple force generation technique of the Shadow Stream Swordplay, Yue Ming instantly unleashed a power of 4.5 million kg. Unfortunately, the level of Shadow Stream Swordplay was too low, only able to unleash triple force generation at its peak. It seemed like changing his swordplay was imminent.

"Log in to the HR Alliance platform!"

After spending an hour in the training room, Yue Ming moved to the audio-visual room. After verifying his fingerprint and then his face, he logged into the Warrior shopping platform, which was called the HR Alliance platform.

There were many Warrior shopping platforms on Earth, but most required specific identities to log in. For example, Warriors from the Limit Martial Hall had access to the Limit Home. The HR Alliance platform, however, was open to all Warriors, as long as one was a Warrior, they could log in.

Unlike the Limit Home, everything on the HR Alliance platform was full price. In contrast, at the Limit Home, as long as one had enough contribution points, they could buy anything at half price.

"Search for swordplay secret manuals!"

In the quiet audio-visual room, Yue Ming sat on the sofa, holding a cup of hot tea. His gaze fell upon the huge screen on the wall. A list appeared on the screen, displaying various swordplay secret manuals.

Army Breaking Killing Sword, rated SS-class, priced at 40 billion Huaxia currency.

Flowing Cloud Swordplay, rated SS-class, priced at 35 billion Huaxia currency.

Blood Kill Sword Technique, rated SS-class, priced at 34 billion Huaxia currency.

Yue Ming searched carefully and found that the highest-rated swordplay secret manuals were SS-class. Or, to be more precise, there were only two ultimate secret manuals on Earth: World Annihilation and Nine Heavens Thunder Saber.

Each secret manual had a physical image and a detailed introduction. After careful selection, Yue Ming finally chose Blood Kill Sword Technique, mainly because he felt this swordplay was the most suitable for him, with a maximum force generation level of five times.

"Do you confirm the purchase of Blood Kill Sword Technique?"

"Yes!"

"Deduct 34 billion Huaxia currency."

Watching 34 billion Huaxia currency directly deducted from his account, Yue Ming couldn't help but shake his head. This money was really not enough to spend. The more than 40 billion Huaxia currency he had just received was almost gone before he could even warm his hands. Now, only a little over 2 billion was left in his account.

Originally, Yue Ming had thought about creating his own swordplay, but now it seemed like he should forget it! The main reason was that even if he created his own swordplay, its level wouldn't be very high. Since it was just a temporary phase, there was no need to waste time.

With that time, it would be better to seize the opportunity to cultivate and break through to Planetary level as soon as possible to comprehend Domain and Origin Laws. That was the true path. Wasting time on creating swordplay in the early stages was undoubtedly a foolish act.

"Although Blood Kill Sword Technique is very suitable for me and its force generation level is not low, it has one drawback: it is not easy to comprehend the artistic conception. I still need a set of swordplay to help me comprehend the artistic conception..."

In fact, the cultivation methods in the Swallowed Star world, or rather, on Swallowed Earth, focused more on the force generation level, and were slightly lacking in assisting the comprehension of artistic conception.

Yue Ming opened the Chat Group and entered the Chat Group Mall, searching for swordplay secret manuals. Since he couldn't find a suitable one on Swallowed Earth, he would look for it in the Chat Group Mall.

There were endless cultivation methods in the Chat Group Mall, with millions of swordplay types alone. However, Yue Ming currently only had 17 Points. He couldn't even think about top-tier swordplay; they were simply beyond his current reach. After repeated selection, he chose a swordplay called Vast Sea, Single Grain.

Vast Sea, Single Grain: Originating from the Comprehensive Martial World, it is a peerless swordplay created by the Heavenly Absolute Swordsman upon comprehending the meaning of 'entrusting mayflies to heaven and earth, like a single grain in the vast sea'...

"Purchase Vast Sea, Single Grain swordplay."

"Deduct 5 Points."

The Vast Sea, Single Grain swordplay was not expensive, costing only 5 Points. After Yue Ming confirmed the purchase, the content of the swordplay was infused into his mind by the Chat Group, allowing Yue Ming to initially master this swordplay.

This might be the benefit of purchasing cultivation methods from the Chat Group Mall. With the infusion from the Chat Group, one could instantly gain initial mastery. However, to truly cultivate the swordplay to perfection, one would ultimately have to rely on their own efforts.

"This swordplay is indeed suitable for me!"

Returning to the training room again, Yue Ming began to practice the Vast Sea, Single Grain swordplay. Compared to the swordplays on Earth, the Vast Sea, Single Grain swordplay did not have force amplitude, but each move and each stance contained a unique artistic conception, which greatly aided in comprehending artistic conception.

"Mr. Yue Ming, this is the secret manual you purchased. You can open it with your fingerprint."

About two hours later, the delivery of the Blood Kill Sword Technique arrived. Taking the sealed alloy box handed over by the delivery person, Yue Ming swiped his finger across the top of the alloy box.

"Beep! Fingerprint verification passed."

A synthesized electronic voice sounded, and the alloy box opened, revealing a book about one centimeter thick. On the book were also two CDs, which were the Blood Kill Sword Technique Yue Ming had purchased.

"Mr. Yue Ming, please open it and take a look. After confirming, please sign. Also, Mr. Yue Ming, I believe you know the taboos after purchasing secret manuals, right? According to the rules, I still have to state them: the copyright of the secret manual belongs to its creator. The purchaser only has the right to learn, not to authorize transmission. You are not allowed to copy, privately sell, or teach the secret manual. If anyone violates this, they will be jointly hunted by the Limit Martial Hall, Thunderclap Martial Hall, Underground Alliance, and the government and military!"

"I understand the rules!"

Yue Ming nodded slightly. Of course, he knew this rule, as it wasn't his first time buying a secret manual. After Yue Ming inspected the goods, the delivery man left.

For the next half month, Yue Ming almost stayed indoors, practicing the two swordplays, Vast Sea, Single Grain and Blood Kill. The Blood Kill Sword Technique was relatively easy to cultivate. In less than a week, Yue Ming had already reached perfection, increasing his personal force generation to five times.

However, the Vast Sea, Single Grain swordplay was more difficult. Although he also cultivated it to great success, he was always a step away from comprehending the artistic conception, unable to cross that hurdle.

"It's already May. In another month, it will be the college entrance examination. The Swallowed Star plot will begin soon. It's time to break through to Planetary level!"

Yue Ming remembered that Luo Feng's college entrance examination was in June. He fainted during the exam, leading to his failure, and then he passed the Quasi-Warrior assessment. In August, he officially became a Warrior after passing the combat assessment.
