High Martial Arts: Gains one point of health per second, sweeping across the heavens.

"continue!"

The second wave (297 combat power), the third wave (594 combat power)... all the way to the fifth wave (1584 combat power), Su Jie cleared the entire field with ease, as if strolling in a garden.

He accumulated 31 units of Qi and Blood, but this amount was just a small appetizer for him.

Starting from the sixth wave, the monsters' combat power reached 2376 points, but their numbers remained at 100! A dark mass of [Bronze Puppets - Enhanced Type] formed an army formation, pressing in with heavy steps.

"This is finally starting to get interesting!" Su Jie's eyes narrowed slightly, no longer being overconfident. He unleashed the "Stepping the Heavens" technique, his figure moving like a dragon entering the sea, his blood surging with each swing of his fists.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

He no longer aimed to kill them all in one blow, but instead moved precisely among the puppets, each punch landing precisely on their energy cores or joint connections, with extremely high efficiency. Two minutes later, all the puppets were reduced to pieces scattered on the ground.

[Sixth wave complete! Gained 320000 HP! Current HP reserve: 77!]

"continue!"

The seventh wave consists of 100 Two-Headed Chimeras with a combat power of 3465! They have the advantage of air superiority, and their venom and icy breath cover the area like a barrage of bullets.

"Troublesome!" Su Jie cursed under his breath, fully activating the "Sky-Stepping Step" to rapidly change direction at low altitude, dodging the dense attacks. At the same time, he pointed his fingers like a sword, using the Flowing Shadow Sword Technique for the first time in this dungeon!

"Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Finger strikes pierce the air with precision! Although no sword is wielded, each finger is imbued with the techniques of the Flowing Shadow Swordplay, with remarkable effect, as chimeras fall from the sky with continuous cries of agony.

He adopted a cyclical tactic of "movement-dodging-snap firing" and sniped all the chimeras one by one within five minutes!

[Seventh wave complete! Gained 640000 HP! Current HP reserve: 141 million!]

Su Jie was slightly out of breath; using martial arts techniques continuously had taken a considerable toll on both his mind and body. "Continue!"

The eighth wave consists of 100 Thunder Eagle Kings with a combat power of 4950! They are faster, surrounded by lightning, and interfere with perception.

"A speed type?" A fierce glint flashed in Su Jie's eyes. "A speed contest? I've never been afraid of that!"

He pushed the "Sky-Treading Step" to its current limit, his figure transforming into an afterimage that was difficult to see with the naked eye, and actively rushed into the flock of eagles!

The "Penetrating Void Finger" technique, used in conjunction with fists and feet, launched a deadly attack while moving at high speed. In an instant, lightning, finger strikes, and the power of blood and qi collided wildly in the air, and eagle feathers mixed with blood rained down continuously.

This was a contest of speed and precision! Su Jie pushed his combat power to the limit, fighting for a full seven or eight minutes before finally killing the last eagle king.

He had several charred marks on his body, and his vital energy had been depleted by about 10,000 units.

[Eighth wave complete! Gained HP: 1280000! Current HP reserve: 268 million!]

"255 million Qi and Blood can be converted into 268 Qi and Blood Essence, enough to upgrade 10 Martial Apertures to level 10!" Su Jie's spirits lifted. "System, convert and upgrade immediately!"

[Consumed 2.5 million Qi and Blood, converted into 250 Essence, upgraded 10 Martial Apertures to Level 10!]

boom!

Ten surges of power coursed through his body in succession! The transformation of his ten martial acupoints was complete!

[Current Martial Acupoints: Level 10: 70! Level 9: 29! Combat Power: 9030 points!]

With his strength increased, Su Jie became even more confident and looked towards the ninth wave.

The ninth wave: 100 Shadow Dragon Kings with a combat power of 6930!

This batch of demonic dragons is extremely close to Su Jie in combat power, and can even sneak into the shadows, appearing and disappearing unpredictably. Their dragon breath carries a strong corrosive quality.

"The real test has begun!" Su Jie was completely focused. From the very start of the battle, he was caught in a fierce struggle.

The dragons did not charge blindly, but rather in groups of three or five, taking turns to pounce from the shadows and spew dragon breath, coordinating perfectly.

Su Jie pushed the "Stepping into the Sky" and "Penetrating the Void Finger" to their limits, frantically dodging and counterattacking within a limited space.

"Swoosh!" A finger pierced the eye socket of a demonic dragon, but the left shoulder was also grazed by the claw of another demonic dragon. The protective qi and blood of the body were violently shaken, leaving three bloody marks.

He used the terrain to his advantage, fighting and retreating in an attempt to divide them. But the dragons were extremely cunning, often disappearing into the shadows after a failed attack.

The battle reached a stalemate, and Su Jie's energy and spirit were rapidly depleting. He had more than a dozen wounds on his body, which, although not fatal, greatly affected his condition.

"This can't go on!" Su Jie gritted his teeth and feigned an opening. When the three demonic dragons simultaneously pounced from the shadows in front of him, he advanced instead of retreating, his blood and qi surging wildly within him!

"Penetrating Void Finger! Triple Strike!"

puff!puff!puff!

Three condensed finger strikes shot out almost simultaneously, precisely shattering the three-headed dragon's head!

However, he himself had exhausted his old strength and was grazed on the back by a dragon's breath that came from the side, causing his skin to tear open and his flesh to burn painfully!

"Hiss—" Su Jie gasped, using the momentum to propel himself forward and create distance. He used this precious moment to catch his breath and continued to engage in hit-and-run tactics.

After a full fifteen minutes of fierce fighting, with wounds all over his body and more than 2 health points depleted, he finally defeated the last demonic dragon.

[Ninth wave complete! Gained HP: 2560000! Current HP reserve: 272!]

Su Jie knelt on the ground, panting heavily, sweat pouring down his face. The continuous high-intensity battles, especially the fierce battle against 100 Shadow Demon Dragon Kings that had just ended, had almost exhausted his physical and mental strength.

[Consumed 2.5 million Qi and Blood, converted into 250 Essence, upgraded 10 Martial Apertures to Level 10!]

[Command confirmed! Consuming 500 points of Qi and Blood Essence! Initiating upgrade...]

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...!

Ten more powerful bursts erupted within him! Like ten dormant volcanoes being activated simultaneously, an even more terrifying torrent of power surged forth, washing over and strengthening his limbs and bones!

The newly formed level 10 martial acupoints resonate with the original seventy, forming an even more powerful energy cycle!

[Upgrade complete! Current martial arts acupoints: Level 10: 80! Level 9: 19!]

[Current combat power: 9330 points!]

[Remaining Qi and Blood Essence: 0 points.]

[Current Qi and Blood Reserves: 22!]

Eighty orifices!

Although he did not achieve perfection, Su Jie felt that his strength, speed, perception, and blood and qi recovery speed had all reached a new level!

The fatigue and injuries from the previous fierce battle recovered quickly under the nourishment of this new power, and the depleted qi and blood were also rapidly replenished.

He clenched his fist, creating a sonic boom in the air beneath his palm. "Eighty apertures, one more wave!"

The entire training ground seemed to freeze for a moment, and then a hundred terrifying auras, as if from the primordial era, erupted simultaneously!

One hundred [Ancient Behemoth Beasts - Royal Lava Cubs]!

They were larger than any previous wave of their kind, their muscles coiled like dragons, their bronze fur shimmered with dark gold patterns, and their scarlet pupils contained destruction and madness!

Each of the battle power fluctuations emanating from them stood firmly at the limit of 9900 points!

The combined pressure was like a hundred volcanoes about to erupt, enough to instantly shatter the will of any Martial Aperture Realm cultivator!

"roar--!!!"
