High Martial Arts: Logging 10,000 Years Into The Future - Chapter 182

Chapter 182

“From the looks of it, the Crystal Contemplation is practically tailor-made for the Absolute Martial Path. When the gold obsidian humanoid reaches its limit, I can still transform into humanoids of higher orders. Layer by layer, layer by layer, I can achieve the Absolute Martial Path!”

For a moment, Lu Sheng felt as if everything before him had suddenly become clear.

“However, before the diamond humanoid’s capacity increases, I’m afraid I can’t continue hunting Master zombies.”

Lu Sheng thought as he walked over and picked up the broken spear left behind by the Master Martial Goddess, Zhao Lengxuan. Then, he strolled toward another street that he had not yet cleared. Lu Sheng urgently needed to find the next Master zombie to test his newly upgraded Level 4 Spear Technique.

After the College Entrance Examination, the waves caused by the Martial Dragon Champion gradually calmed down. The summer carnival of the Martial Examination was also coming to an end.

Outskirts of Baihe City, Lanke Mountain.

According to folklore, in ancient times, there was a Baihe Woodcutter who went up the mountain to cut firewood. He happened to meet two people at the top of the mountain playing chess. The woodcutter loved chess, so he stood at the side and watched. When he was thirsty, he drank a pot of water with the two people. When he was hungry, he ate the peaches on the table in front of them.

Unknowingly, he was fascinated. After watching a game of chess, the woodcutter raised his head and realized that the axe at his feet had long rusted and the handle had rotted. The peach pit that he had casually thrown away had grown into a brilliant peach forest. Only then did he realize that there were immortals in the world. Because of this legend, the wild mountain outside Baihe was called Lanke Mountain.

Lanke, Ke referred to the handle of the axe.

It was also because of this story that the Baihe City government spared no effort in developing Lanke Mountain, trying to turn it into an A-grade scenic spot.

Not only did they build a mountain path, but they also built a park on the mountain. Usually, many Baihe City locals would come here to relax.

At this time, a man and a woman in their twenties wearing sports equipment were climbing up the mountain, sweating profusely.

“Hold on, we’re almost at the top of the mountain. Later, I’ll bring you to see the immortal chessboard and the axe with the rotten handle.”

The young man continued to climb up while encouraging the girl beside him.

The girl wiped the sweat off her face and said with a smile, “Are you bullying me because I’m an outsider? That chessboard and axe are definitely fake. In this world, how can there be immortals who spend a day on the mountain and spend a thousand years at the bottom of the mountain.”

The young man laughed and said, “Since we’re already here, let’s go and take a look. What if we really get some immortal qi.”

The girl rolled her eyes at him and didn’t say anything. She only raised her head to look at the sun and complained, “The weather is too hot. If I had known, I would have woken up earlier. It’s only seven in the morning and the sun is already so fierce.”

“It’ll be cooler in a while.” The young man casually replied. The two didn’t say anything else and focused on climbing up.

Finally, they reached their destination, a lush peach forest. The young man impatiently pulled the girl deeper into the peach forest.

“Quick, the immortal chessboard is here. Look, we’re here!”

The young man excitedly pointed forward. The next moment, his pupils fiercely contracted and he froze in place. He saw that not far in front of him, there was a tall and straight figure It was a young man standing at the edge of a cliff.

***

Behind him was a huge stone chessboard. In front of him was a sun that was slowly rising. Clouds roiled as the golden morning sun rose from the horizon. The sunlight shone down, forming a visible light in front of the young man’s eyes.

It was like two-inch-long swords flickering in the young man’s eyes.

As if sensing someone’s arrival, the young man turned around and looked at them.

His handsome face was calm, and his eyes flickered with a golden radiance. His entire body was covered in a layer of faint radiance, making him look like a divine child descending from the heavens.

“There’s really an immortal on Lanke Mountain?!”

The girl standing behind the young man blurted out in shock. She covered her mouth in shock. The young man leading the way was also dumbfounded, but he quickly recovered. Although the young man before them looked otherworldly, he was wearing the same sportswear as them. The young man glanced at them indifferently before walking away silently. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the peach forest.

“Holy shit, I thought he was an immortal. How did he do it? Magic?”

The girl came back to her senses and realized that she had embarrassed herself. Her face flushed red as she took the initiative to cover up her embarrassment.

“He’s a martial artist. He should be a powerful Level 5 Martial Artist who has cultivated the internal energy. That’s why it’s able to manifest itself under the sunlight and create a visual illusion.”

The young man was very knowledgeable and could roughly guess what he had just seen. Even so, his face was still filled with shock and horror.

“But isn’t that person a little too young? How old is he? How can he be a Level 5 Martial Artist at such a young age?”

“A Level 5 Martial Artist at such a young age.”

The girl frowned as if she had thought of something. Suddenly, a light flashed in her mind as she whispered, “How is that not possible? Did you forget that your Baihe produced the number one martial arts genius in the country this year?”

The young man’s eyes lit up as realization dawned on him. “That’s right. I was wondering why that person looked so familiar. I’ve seen him on television before. Lu Sheng! He’s Lu Sheng! He’s this year’s Martial Dragon Champion of our Baihe City!”

The two became excited and hurriedly chased in the direction the young man had left in. But all he could see was the mountain flowers and the peach forest. There was no trace of the young spirit boy.

“Sigh, it’s such a rare opportunity to see the legendary Martial Dragon Champion in person. I actually blew it and didn’t get to go up to ask for an autograph.”

The young man’s face was full of annoyance and unwillingness. He turned his head and looked at the place where the youth had stood before. He quickly ran over: “Whatever, I’ll stand where he just stood. It’ll  be also good to get some of the Dragon Qi of the Martial Dragon Champion.”

The girl had a look of disdain on her face, but she didn’t slow down at all.

Lu Sheng walked down the mountain. He seemed to be strolling, but his speed was shockingly fast. There seemed to be a gust of wind lingering around him. This gust of wind was faintly golden, but under the bright sun, ordinary people would not be able to see it if they did not look carefully.

“After transforming my internal Energy into Gang, the speed boost brought by the Breath of the Wind has increased by quite a bit.”

Lu Sheng was increasingly aware of the benefits of Gang Qi. It was an all-around improvement to his strength. For the past month or so, he had been diligently cultivating the subsequent chapters of the three Level 11 techniques.
