A Hundredfold Critical Hit

The mysterious, mechanical electronic voice, devoid of any emotion, echoed in Lu Yun's mind.

Yet.

A towering wave had already surged within Lu Yun's heart!

"It's finally... here!"

His eyes instantly filled with anticipation.

Then.

A long-lost feeling of hot-blooded excitement.

Suddenly flooded his heart.

Could he defy fate and change his destiny?

The answer lay in this very moment!

"The system..."

Lu Yun could not suppress the excitement in his heart.

He intended to use his consciousness to ask about the system's specific functions.

But just then.

The system's crisp notification sounded abruptly once more.

[Ding!]

[The host's martial arts talent has been detected to be too low, and the body is in a damaged state. The system will automatically repair the host...]

In an instant.

Lu Yun felt his mind become incomparably clear, while an indescribably profound sensation slowly arose within his body.

Deep within his once somewhat obstructed qi sea.

At that moment.

Meridians of varying lengths unexpectedly emerged out of thin air.

Throughout the Purple Mansion...

They twisted and wound about, shining brilliantly.

[Ding!]

[Body repair complete!]

[Martial arts talent +999999]

[Scanning again!]

[The host's martial arts talent has reached the maximum level, meeting the basic requirements for activating the first stage of the Infinite Critical Hit System.]

[Energy infusion in progress...]

[Ding!]

[Congratulations, Host! From now on, you can trigger 100x critical hits!]

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Lu Yun walked to the window.

He felt a cool current of energy rapidly circulating within his dantian.

His qi sea and dantian, which had already been damaged.

Had not only completely recovered.

But were also absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth far faster than before.

At the same time.

He could clearly feel it.

His vitality had become exceptionally abundant.

Especially...

His mind was working faster and faster.

In his past memories.

Many difficult points in martial arts that he had pondered endlessly without understanding.

Seemed to.

Instantly have answers.

He hurriedly took a saber manual from beneath the table, deciding to try cultivating first.

The first page of the saber manual had already yellowed somewhat.

Upon it were four wildly flowing seal-script characters: Thousand Mountains Saber Technique.

The strokes carried an unrestrained, elegant spirit.

Who knew how many vicissitudes of time it had endured? Even now, it still seemed to flow with vigorous vitality.

Lu Yun had stumbled across this saber manual in the library. It had seven levels in total, from lowest to highest.

Although he had cultivated it for two years.

Even now.

He was still only at the third level.

Its difficulty could only be described as terrifying.

According to this world's classification of cultivation techniques, all techniques could be divided into four ranks: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Huang.

Each rank was further divided into upper, middle, and lower grades.

For example, the Thousand Mountains Saber Technique was a Middle Huang Grade martial skill. In terms of difficulty, it far surpassed the Lower Huang Grade martial skills commonly encountered in cultivation.

For Lu Yun, who was still in the Body Tempering Realm, when he would be able to cultivate the saber technique to its next level was simply unimaginable.

Of course.

Now that he had the system.

Everything had become completely different.

Lu Yun felt eager to give it a try. He wanted to see whether his cultivation speed could improve.

If he could cultivate the saber technique to the seventh level.

Then.

Even if he encountered that assassin again.

At the very least, he would have a little more ability to protect himself.

With an uneasy heart.

He casually picked up the Fish-Scale Purple-Gold Saber hanging on the wall.

Spun it in a flourish.

And officially began cultivating.

The moment he made his move.

He immediately felt the difference.

Before.

No matter how strictly he followed the saber technique's cultivation steps.

His qi sea and dantian would never show the slightest reaction.

But at this moment.

Strands of cool spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

Like trickling streams.

Rapidly burrowed into his body.

And quickly merged with the spiritual energy that had just been born within him.

Before he even had time to react.

A crisp, pleasant system notification suddenly rang in his ears:

[Ding! The host has been detected using the Thousand Mountains Saber Technique...]

[+1 saber technique experience. 100x critical hit triggered, experience +100!]

[Congratulations, Host! Thousand Mountains Saber Technique has increased from lv3 12% to lv3 56%!]

"Huh?"

"The spiritual energy in my body has grown much stronger again!"

"How...?"

Lu Yun's eyes suddenly widened, his heart filled with disbelief.

Just now...

He had merely given it a small trial.

Yet so effortlessly.

He had raised the Thousand Mountains Saber Technique's proficiency by a huge amount.

Just as he found it unbelievable.

A nearly transparent light screen suddenly appeared.

Host: Lu Yun

System First Stage Activated: 100x Critical Hit Amplification

Martial Skill: Thousand Mountains Saber Technique (lv3 56%)

Strength Level: Body Tempering Realm Perfection

"Is this the status panel that records my information?"

Lu Yun narrowed his eyes slightly.

Staring fixedly at each of the values displayed above.

When he saw that his strength level was still at Body Tempering Realm Perfection, the corner of his mouth could not help twitching sharply.

"Why am I still in the Body Tempering Realm? This absolutely won't do!"

"You've got to be kidding!"

"This is an age of spiritual energy resurgence, where martial strength is off the charts!"

"The Body Tempering Realm is only the starting stage of cultivation. One careless mistake, and someone could instantly beat you until not even scraps remain."

"Before, it was precisely because my cultivation was too low that I had no strength to fight back at all when I encountered that assassin."

"So, I have to become stronger as quickly as possible!"

Retracting his gaze.

Lu Yun impatiently pushed open the door.

Now that he possessed the system.

Then...

Tonight.

He had to quickly raise his strength.
