Chapter 260 : [Martial God - Origin]
Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
Dull yet highly penetrating rumbling sounds echoed above the ruins.
The man hailed as "The Strongest Man on Earth" simply stood there silently, not launching an attack immediately.
But this very silence caused the Monsters opposite him to feel an unprecedented pressure.
"This… what kind of stance is this?"
Golden Sperm's previously arrogant face was now extremely tense, and a trickle of cold sweat seeped from his forehead.
He stared intently at every one of KING's movements.
As an individual born from the fusion of forty-three trillion Black Sperm cells, Golden Sperm possessed the capital to be arrogant.
He considered himself to be at the pinnacle of Monsters.
From what he had seen so far, almost all living beings, whether human or Monster, had flaws, big or small.
But KING, who stood before him, shattered his perception.
"Flawless, simply flawless…"
Golden Sperm's pupils contracted violently, and he quickly dismissed the idea of probing KING.
In his mental simulations, no matter from what angle he launched an attack—a frontal assault, a flank ambush, or using speed to get behind him—
That man could, at the same instant, counter-kill him with the slightest movement.
"Is this the strength of The Strongest Man on Earth?"
On the other side, Psykos, floating in mid-air, also had an extremely grave expression.
As a psychic, her perception was even keener than Golden Sperm's.
"No killing intent, no flaws, I can't even read his intentions…"
Psykos gritted her teeth tightly, her fingers digging deeply into her palms from excessive force.
"Why isn't he rushing to attack? Is he observing our flaws?"
"No, a powerhouse of this level doesn't need to observe." She stared intently at KING, her heart filled with doubt and alarm.
"Could it be that he's assessing how we're going to die? Or considering what move to use to minimize environmental damage?"
This unknown fear made her dare not act rashly in the slightest.
Even the Centipede Sage, whose massive body was large enough to blot out the sky, and the Evil Ocean Water that had transformed into a surging deluge on the ground, ceased their rampage at this moment.
They watched the tiny human figure warily.
The outside air solidified, with hidden murderous intent.
However, beneath Lin Mo's calm exterior, his consciousness had already sunk into the system interface.
"Name: Lin Mo (KING)"
"Gender: Male"
"Energy Value: 141,150"
"Stamina: 1200"
"Strength: 1200"
"Speed: 1200"
"Psychic Power: 700"
"Skills: Phoenix Resurrection (Conceptual-level), Intimidation (Dragon-level), Energy Blast (Dragon-level), Martial Arts · Pinnacle (Dragon-level), Supersonic Movement (Demon-level)"
"Items: bad luck coin ×1, basic stamina recovery potion ×3, basic healing potion ×5…"
This trip to the Monster Association was exceptionally fruitful.
Just killing the Monster King Orochi in one blow contributed a full 40,000 energy points, not to mention the energy values provided by casually clearing out many low-level Monsters.
"One hundred and forty thousand…"
Lin Mo's gaze swept over the attribute panel, finally settling on the skill Martial Arts · Pinnacle.
Facing the Centipede Sage and Evil Ocean Water, who possessed true divine punishment power, killing them was not difficult for the current Lin Mo.
But if he were to completely pulverize those two behemoths, he wasn't sure if Returning to Origin could achieve it.
Therefore, he needed stronger power.
A power that could break the "specifications."
"System, upgrade Martial Arts · Pinnacle!"
Lin Mo issued the command in his mind.
"Upgrading Martial Arts · Pinnacle to God-level will cost 100,000 energy points. Confirm?"
"Confirm!"
Boom!!!
To the outside world, KING still stood quietly, not even an eyelash twitching.
But in his spiritual world, a towering wave was surging.
The knowledge about "moves," "routines," and "force application techniques" that had been in his mind shattered at this moment.
Countless golden fragments danced in his spiritual ocean, then began to reassemble under the pull of a supreme, transcendent power.
He seemed to see the end of martial arts.
No longer human limb movements, no longer the flow of internal energy.
But rules.
It was the absolute control over the essence of power, the perfect analysis of the operating laws of all things in heaven and earth!
"Ding! Consumed 100,000 energy points."
"Skill advancement successful!"
"Congratulations, Host, you have completely crossed the boundaries of mortals."
"Martial Arts · Pinnacle has evolved into—Martial God · Origin!"
Brand new golden text appeared on the system panel, exuding a chilling aura.
"Martial God · Origin (God-level)"
"Skill Description: You are no longer a learner of martial arts; you are the culmination of martial arts, the origin of power."
"Your every action disregards causality; your every breath transcends dimensions. So-called techniques are meaningless in your eyes."
"Trait 1: Martial Gods Eye"
"You can see through the 'dead lines' and 'structures' of all things in the world. Whether it's biological structures, energy flow, or even spatial weak points, nothing can escape your sight."
"Trait 2: Myriad Manifestation Martial Arts"
"You are no longer limited by your mortal flesh. Grass, trees, bamboo, and stones can all be swords; wind, rain, thunder, and lightning can all be fists."
"You can infuse your martial will into the surrounding environment, borrowing the power of heaven and earth to unleash attacks hundreds or thousands of times beyond your own strength."
"Trait 3: Martial God Domain"
"Unleash an absolute domain. Within the domain, you are a god."
"You can forcibly strip opponents of their control over external energy, pulling them into the purest physical combat. In the domain, all your attributes receive a comprehensive and significant boost."
"Summary: Cease conflict for martial arts, divine might like a prison. With this body, suppress all turmoil in the world."
As the system's prompt faded, Lin Mo slowly opened his eyes.
At that moment, the world changed in his eyes.
The previously seemingly perfect Golden Sperm was now covered in dense, intricate red lines.
The energy nodes flowing on the massive body of the arrogant Centipede Sage in the sky were also clearly visible.
Even the Evil Ocean Water, in his eyes, was full of flaws; with just one strike, this vast ocean would instantly become stagnant water.
As for Psykos… Lin Mo's gaze didn't even linger on her for too long; her body full of flaws held no interest for him.
"Hmph…"
Lin Mo gently exhaled a breath of turbid air.
This was an ordinary action.
However, as this breath was exhaled, an indescribable aura, centered on him, violently spread in all directions.
If the KING from before was like an unshakable mountain.
Then the current him was like the vast firmament, encompassing everything and looking down upon everything.
