Chapter 1041: Yin-Yang Palm!
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Yue Zhong looked at the Heaven-Piercing Bow in his hands with appreciation, "Good treasure! I"ve gained big this time!"
Initially, he had proposed the deal with Zombie King Limo in order to build some relations, where both sides stood to gain. He did not harbor much hope for the treasures, therefore, he was pleasantly surprised to gain such a powerful battle weapon.
Holding the Heaven-Piercing Bow, a sense of blood resonance transmitted from it, feeling Yue Zhong with joy and familiarity.
"Time to test it!"
Upon gaining the weapon, Yue Zhong stepped out of the Protector Battles.h.i.+p and soared into the air. He then went to the outskirts of Berlin.
Wielding the bow, his gaze narrowed, and with a thought, the Heaven-Piercing Bow radiated with power as it absorbed a portion of his energy.
After it swiftly gathered about ⅓ of Yue Zhong"s energy, a powerful red ball of energy appeared within the bow. At the same time, as long as Yue Zhong willed it, the atmospheric energy within a 500m radius would gather at the red ball of energy, empowering it.
Yue Zhong took aim at a particular mountain far away and drew the bow.
A bright red arrow shot out, crossing the distance of a few hundred meters in a second and blasted into the mountain.
Hong!!
With a loud, earth-shaking roar, the entire mountain crumbled into dust.
Yue Zhong watched the mountain crumble with a look of excitement, as he laughed out in an unbridled manner, "Haha! Awesome!! I"ve finally reached such a stage! One more trump card now!!"
With this Heaven-Piercing Bow, Yue Zhong"s Type 7 strength could control the atmospheric energy to augment his attacks. Even a peak-Type 7 expert would be annihilated by this attack.
Yue Zhong thought with a little regret, "What a pity that with my current strength, I can only fire 3 such arrows. It"s definitely a trump card, I can"t use it often."
He continued to ponder silently, "Based on my current hidden aces, I have too little offensive ones. I need to learn some secret techniques."
The martial techniques of the Saint Lands were the heaven-defying arts developed by the talents and geniuses of Planet Uros. Each one of them had their might and power, if trained to the peak, a person could fight enemies of higher levels.
With Yue Zhong"s past style, it had either been sneak attacks, a.s.sa.s.sinations, or a combination of all his a.r.s.enal and trump cards just to kill his enemies. In a frontal combat, he might have his moves, but it was difficult to cross ranks and face stronger enemies.
At the Saint Lands, Yue Zhong had been able to kill those elites because his personal strength was high, not because they were weak.
Since reaching the Type 7 realm, his body had also attained the Second order G.o.d-Devil Body, with his strength, even if he was struck by a 155m round, he would not even be the slightest bit injured.
On Earth, the only weapon left that could possibly threaten Yue Zhong would be the nuclear weapons, or maybe the Raytheon Cannon and Prism Laser Cannon.
As for the secret martial techniques, they could enable a person to execute about 10% of their own strength. Yue Zhong was able to exhibit about 20 to 30% of his strength currently. If he learned another technique, it could increase the power he could display.
When he flew back to the Protector Battles.h.i.+p, Yue Zhong swiftly pulled out the records of the Saint Land martial techniques with Bai Yi"s help.
Radiant Sun Art, Sky Wolf Skill, Sky Howl Divine Art, Ice Soul Divine Technique… all sorts of martial skills were displayed for him to see.
"None of the high-quality skills are useful to me. I only need to see from the top 10 Martial Techniques to boost my strength."
There were all sorts of martial techniques in the Saint Lands, separated into Low-Tier, Mid-Tier, High-Tier as well as Peerless. The higher the grade, the tougher the cultivation. With regards to the Peerless grade, even with the numerous elites, there were few that could actually train in them.
He looked through the countless techniques and immediately dived into the top 10 of the Saint Lands, intending to find a strong offensive skill.
With his G.o.d and Devil Imprint, as long as he continued to kill his enemies, he could evolve crazily. He did not have to rely on any of the energy cultivation technique within the martial arts. Instead, he was focused on finding an offensive technique.
While looking, he thought quietly, "All these techniques are all deep and profound. If they had been introduced prior to the apocalypse, even if I had the chance to look at them, I would not be able to learn them. Now, they"re all so simple to understand. Which should I choose?"
Yue Zhong"s gaze continued to roam, before finally landing on one particular skill, "Those that are mainly cultivation can be excluded. My G.o.d-Devil Body is already the strongest physique in the world. Those techniques that require too much time to train can also be excluded. I am lacking time. Those that cannot grow and follow my increase in strength and evolution should also be excluded. That leaves this one - Yin-Yang Palm."
The Yin-Yang Palm was one of the most shocking skills created by a human expert of the Saint Lands. He had been the most outstanding Saint Lord across the ages and had used this skill to kill an initial-Type 8 expert of a foreign species. It had been vital to the survival of the apocalypse in Planet Uros then.
There were a total of 9 levels to the skills. The first could allow 100% of a person"s strength to be displayed. The meant all of the person"s strength. The 2nd level could double it, with each level increasing. By the 9th Level, a person could exhibit 256 times his or her strength.
It was because of this skill, that the Saint Lord at that time had crossed ranks and levels to defeat a Type 8 expert.
Of course, it was an incredibly hard skill to master. At that time, the Saint Lord had only practiced it to its 5th Level, and he was already at a heaven-defying level. There had been no one else who had trained the technique to the 9th Level.
"The peak of technological advancement in society would be a variety of machinery. The peak of cultivation would be the variety of techniques. If this Yin-Yang Palm can be trained to the 9th level, it would truly be powerful, and invincible!"
The moment Yue Zhong saw the description of this skill, his eyes lit up, and he started comprehending this technique.
The skill required the utmost talent and resources to begin cultivation. With Yue Zhong"s original potential, no matter how hard he worked, he would not have succeeded. However, since reaching the Second Order G.o.d-Devil Body, he had already started breaking out of a mortal"s sh.e.l.l, and his latent talent had undergone a huge change. Whatever he saw, he could learn. In fact, he started to rapidly progress through the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and even 4th Level, before his speed of comprehension began to slow after reaching the 5th level.
A few days later, in front of the Gate of h.e.l.l in France.
There was a huge sea of zombies with seemingly uncountable numbers heading towards the Gate.
The remaining 30,000 Beastmen warriors had just constructed some simple defenses and were currently defending the location with all their might.
In front of one particular wooden fort, where a dozen Beastmen warriors were guarding, an L5 suddenly appeared.
One of the commanders quickly roared out, "Fire the arrows! Fire the arrows!"
A dozen Beastmen warriors quickly drew their bows and released arrows that shot towards the L5 like meteors.
The shower of arrows pierced the L5"s skin but was unable to truly hurt or injure it.
The L5 bore the brunt of the arrows, arriving in front of the Beastmen fortress, and slapped out viciously, causing the Beastmen warriors within to be flattened into meat paste.
The warriors within the castle tried their best to dodge but were quickly enveloped by the surrounding horde of zombies.
With many more L5s as the core, the various forts of the Beastmen started to be breached, and their mortality count rising.
Zombie King Limo, who was hidden within the sea of corpses, observed from afar with a sunken expression, "Go to h.e.l.l. This Gate of h.e.l.l must belong to me."
This particular Gate was the one used by the Beastmen Kingdom to invade. If Zombie King Limo obtained it, he just had to deploy troops here to overwhelm the enemies flooding in. If he allowed them to pour out in waves, even he cannot guarantee victory with numbers.
The Beastmen elites had already been mostly taken out by Yue Zhong and King Limo. Although the remaining warriors at the Gate were elites, there were no Type 6 experts to hold the fort. There was no way of defending against the overwhelming number of zombies. Many of them fell, while the defensive line was being reduced at a rapid pace.
If they were humans, they would have long since collapsed. However, these Beastmen were fundamentally different from the human race. They knew fear, but they prioritized orders and continued to fight bravely and resolutely to their last breath. It was truly admirable, and frightening as well.
Just as the sea of corpses was about a kilometer away from the Gate, all of a sudden, a huge beast came out of the Gate. It had a vicious-looking dragon-head, its limbs thick and powerful, its entire body was covered in thick, grey scales and it was about 3m in height, 7m in length. On top of it, there was a peak-Type 4 expert with a snake-head wearing a silver armor, wielding an 8m-long dragon spear. He was exuding a terrifying aura.
