World Destruction

August 2nd, evening.

Mingyue Community. Yang Wu declined the Luo family's kind invitation to dinner and returned to his own villa alone.

It was not that he was cold or boring. Scenes of harmonious family life simply stirred up memories he did not wish to revisit.

Second-floor audiovisual room.

Yang Wu worked the keyboard with both hands, quickly entering the Limit Home website address.

A massive screen was immediately projected onto one wall of the audiovisual room, displaying a personal information page.

Name: Yang Wu
Gender: Male
Address: Jiangnan Base City, Huaxia Country
Martial Warrior Certificate Number: 426123205608010001
Level: Warrior Level (Beginner)
Contribution Value: 0 points
Currency Balance: 20,000,000 Hua Xia currency
...

The twenty million in startup funds promised by the contract had already been deposited into Yang Wu's account when he passed the martial warrior examination and officially received martial warrior privileges.

Yang Wu opened one of the two emails at the top of the page. A video appeared on the projection screen, showing a middle-aged man in a black suit.

Besides informing Yang Wu that the twenty million in startup funds had arrived and explaining some reimbursement procedures, this assistant to Supervisor Zhuge Tao also left him with a piece of advice.

"Lastly, the supervisor asked me to tell you that it would be best to transfer the funds in that anonymous account to your martial warrior account. Anonymous accounts are not protected by law and ultimately carry risks."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, the video ended immediately.

"Transfer it!"

He had to transfer it. Leaving the funds there was risky, and transferring them over would make payments more convenient as well.

He acted immediately.

After going through the process and transferring all the money from the anonymous account, the balance in Yang Wu's martial warrior account became:

1,917,500,000 Hua Xia currency.

He clicked back to the email page. The second email he opened was also a video, but this time, a sweet-looking young woman with a good figure appeared.

"Hello, Mr. Yang Wu!"

"On behalf of the Limit Martial Hall, I welcome you to our family."

Yang Wu sat upright and listened to the sweet young woman's introduction without letting his gaze wander. Watching a beautiful girl was far better than watching some burly guy picking at his feet.

The beautiful girl smiled as her sweet voice echoed through the audiovisual room, introducing Yang Wu to the various uses of Limit Home.

These included, but were not limited to, the Warrior Forum, online marketplace, donation system, task posting and acceptance templates, cultivation video explanations...

"..."

"Finally, I wish Mr. Yang Wu a future at the pinnacle of martial warriors."

After saying that, the girl in the video bowed before the video ended.

Yang Wu was thoroughly impressed...

Not bad!

After briefly familiarizing himself with Limit Home's various functions, Yang Wu eagerly entered the online marketplace and searched for the World Destruction manual.

Since he was going to cultivate, he would cultivate the best and most suitable technique. He used a spear, so naturally he had to choose the best World Destruction technique he could access.

The screen immediately displayed World Destruction's categories, reviews, prices, photographs of the physical copies, manual title, and various introductions.

"..."

The first three levels of World Destruction: full price, 5 billion Hua Xia currency; half price, 2.5 billion Hua Xia currency. Requirement: Two-Star Contribution Points.

The first two levels of World Destruction: full price, 2 billion Hua Xia currency; half price, 1 billion Hua Xia currency. Requirement: One-Star Contribution Points.

"..."

At the bottom of the purchase page was a conspicuous red warning.

Yang Wu ignored it.

With a light swipe of his finger, he selected the first two levels of World Destruction.

Purchase confirmed!

Verification passed. The subsidy funds from the Limit Martial Hall were instantly emptied, and his account balance immediately shrank by more than half as well.

Fortunately, new members of the Limit Martial Hall could ignore Contribution Point restrictions when purchasing manuals or equipment for the first time and buy them at the best price—half price.

However, only that first purchase came with a discount. If he wanted to buy again afterward, he would either have to pay full price or make up the required Contribution Points.

Contribution Points were a contribution system specifically established by the higher-ups of the Human Race to encourage martial warriors to hunt more monsters.

They had many uses. Not only could they be used to purchase items at half price, but once Contribution Points reached a certain level, one could also enjoy special privileges.

Every faction had its own contribution system. Though they differed in the details, their main framework was roughly the same.

There were only two sources of Contribution Points: hunting monsters and donating money.

The donation ratio was 10,000 to 1. Only by donating ten thousand Hua Xia currency could one obtain one Contribution Point, and donations were capped at 100 billion, equivalent to Four-Star Contribution Points.

Yang Wu sat alone on the sofa, quietly considering the matter of Contribution Points.

Donating money for Contribution Points was out of the question for now. He was still short on money himself, so his only option was to head into the Wilderness Area and hunt monsters.

Hunting monsters would earn him both money and Contribution Points.

The next day, Villa 198, second-floor training hall.

"Hello!"

"Oh, all right. I'll be right over."

At around six in the morning, an unfamiliar call came in, forcing Yang Wu to stop absorbing Cosmic Energy and end his cultivation state.

Ever since his physical fitness had been raised to the Advanced Warrior Level and he had successfully cultivated Genetic Force, he rarely slept.

As body cells absorbed Cosmic Energy and transformed it into Genetic Force, the process of cellular conversion would eventually reach saturation.

However, the efficiency with which cells converted energy was determined by physical fitness. The stronger one's physique, the longer it took for cellular absorption and conversion to reach saturation.

Therefore, the stronger a person's physical fitness, the faster their strength actually grew.

Yang Wu initially thought the manual he had ordered last night had arrived, but it turned out to be the weapon Han Xiu had purchased for him.

Although Yang Wu's weapons and equipment had been bought by Han Xiu at the Limit Martial Hall, the delivery personnel were from the HR Alliance and did not have permission to enter Mingyue Community.

At the entrance to Mingyue Community, Yang Wu confirmed everything was correct, accepted the delivery slip, and signed his name.

Yang Wu carried back the weapon he had bought and was just about to unpack it to inspect the equipment's quality.

However, another unfamiliar call came in, forcing him to stop unpacking.

The manual he had purchased last night had been delivered to his doorstep today.

At the villa entrance, the deliveryman handed Yang Wu a sealed alloy box. After Yang Wu completed the inspection, the deliveryman left.

World Destruction!

Second floor, training hall.

Yang Wu sat cross-legged on the floor. Before him lay two thick manuals, the first two levels of the ultimate spear technique, World Destruction.

He opened the first page of the manual...

Uh, very ordinary!

With Luo Feng's example from the original story as precedent, Yang Wu had already prepared himself for the overwhelming blade aura that had struck Luo Feng when he first opened Nine Heavy Thunder Blade.

In the end, nothing happened.

He flipped back and checked again. It was genuine, all right.

Then either it had restrained itself to the extreme and returned to simplicity, or...

It simply did not care!

Setting those thoughts aside, Yang Wu turned his gaze back to the page.

"The fundamental essence of the World Destruction Spear Technique I created lies in the two words stillness and motion. There are no flashy moves, only the transition between stillness and motion."

"Still as unmoving water, swift as thunderclap."

"Let the heart be still as water, without a single ripple; be as swift as the wind, moving like thunderclap."

"Use stillness to control motion. Once an attack is launched, it is as fierce as thunderclap, unstoppable."

"This World Destruction incorporates some of my insights into domains. Once you gain some understanding, you will be invincible among those of the same level!"

The complete set of manuals included movement techniques, spear techniques, and guiding techniques...

However, Yang Wu's spear technique had already reached the Proficient Level, his movement technique was even close to the Perfect Level, and the guiding technique was mainly used to assist in cultivating Genetic Force.

What Yang Wu valued more was the part of World Destruction involving insights into domains.

Unfortunately, the first two levels of the manual did not describe that in much detail.

After mastering the first level of World Destruction, one could increase force output by onefold. Added to the original onefold, that meant possessing twofold force output.

The second level provided threefold force output, and so on. The fifth level provided sixfold force output, while only the sixth level involved insights into domains.

"Practice?"

He acted immediately.

Yang Wu rose and walked to the weapon rack at the side, picking up the A6 Model Po Jun Spear. He began practicing the spear technique in the training hall.

The first level of the World Destruction Spear Technique contained only seven moves, and these seven moves were useful for comprehending the first level's technique of twofold force output.

Although this was an incorrect method of exerting force in the universe, and Luo Feng in the original story had spent several years correcting it, Yang Wu had no better or correct method of exerting force. Besides, even if it was wrong, with simulation, he would only waste a few months.

For now, increasing his strength remained the priority.

Yang Wu felt that this spear technique suited his current self very well. If the defining trait of Nine Heavy Thunder Blade was speed, then World Destruction's defining trait was the domineering intent to burn and annihilate all things.

Many of the world's top powerhouses practiced this set of World Destruction spear techniques, including those Planet Level councilors. They might appear indifferent on the surface, but who knew if they were secretly studying it somewhere?

Some even speculated that this spear technique concealed Hong's secret. If one could thoroughly comprehend it, one might reach Hong's realm—or even surpass Hong and become the new world's strongest.

Of course, that was complete nonsense. If domains could truly be cultivated through manuals, why would the Human Race bother selecting geniuses?

Such things did exist, but at least not in the Original Universe!
