High Martial Arts: Starting from the Strongest Junior High Student

Chapter 257 The Passionate Man

The Long family was not trying to scare anyone.

They were serious, because Xie Zhixian received a message from Xiangxi the day before the knockout stage officially began.

"Xiangyu has completely gone mad."

"When he was cultivating and internalizing, Long Xiangnian suddenly broke in and released his mad energy, causing all the energy on Xiangyu Island to collapse, and he was in a semi-mad state from which he could not get out."

Xie Zhixian: "Can I go take a look?"

"Okay," Long Xiangxi replied.

Next, Chen Shi and Xie Zhixian went to the hospital to check on Xiangyu's condition.

He had been given several sedatives and was now lying in bed unconscious, but his heart was still beating very fast and loudly. Even the doctor frowned, saying he had never seen anything like it before.

Once he wakes up, he'll probably turn into a complete beast, roaring at everyone.

The only solution is to completely destroy the gray energy within his body.

That force is currently in an extremely unstable state and is destroying his body.

Chen Shi suddenly stepped forward, pressed his finger on the other person's philtrum, and then channeled his martial intent, attaching it to the center of their forehead.

A faint black current flowed along Chen Shi's fingers, invading Xiang Yu's brow.

"Sizzle!"

People faintly heard a crackling sound like electricity!

Everyone present was a martial artist with extremely fast reflexes. They all turned around to look at the electrocardiogram behind them. They saw that the already alarming current was intensifying again, and it began to beat wildly!

Chen Shi's pupils suddenly contracted!

Xiangyu, who had been fast asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils bloodshot, and his mouth seemed to grow sharp teeth. He let out a terrifying howl and struggled angrily.

The howling echoed throughout the ward. Even the doctor, who had seen countless patients, felt a chill run down his spine and his face changed drastically as he exclaimed that it was a zombie outbreak!

Xie Zhixian swiftly raised his palm and used his merciless iron hand to suppress the rampaging Xiangyu!

Xiangxi, standing to the side, looked very nervous, wondering if something bad had happened.

The roars continued for a long time.

Everyone in the room was extremely nervous, their hearts pounding. Chen Shi himself was drenched in sweat, wondering if he had ruined him.

A few seconds later, the zombie transformation suddenly ended, and Xiangyu fell into a coma again. His frenzied heartbeat dropped rapidly, and eventually his electrocardiogram returned to normal.

The doctor nervously stepped forward to check on Xiangyu's current condition, but was also afraid that he would turn into a zombie again; what happened just now was really scary.

At this time.

The door to the ward was forcibly pushed open, and a man in a white coat and glasses walked in. He looked like a doctor, but instead of the smell of disinfectant, he smelled of a pungent mixture of various compounds.

Ignoring the stares of the crowd, he pushed through them and stood in front of Xiangyu, pointing his finger at Xiangyu's brow.

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions shifting, wondering who this guy was. They then looked at the doctor behind them, who was equally confused. Although the man who had suddenly appeared looked like a doctor, he had never seen him before.

A few seconds later.

The man calmly said, "His gray weapon is completely destroyed, but his cultivation level is still there. He can rebuild it, so it's not completely useless."

"But that was too dangerous. Your Black Warrior isn't strong enough. You almost failed to suppress him with force. If the madness factor in his body had been fully activated, he would have been finished."

After saying that, the man let out a long breath, and before Chen Shi could ask who he was, he turned to Chen Shi and said, "You've grown up, you look just like your dad."

A genuine smile appeared on the man's face.

Chen Shi was struck dumb.

He continued, "My name is Wu Su. I was your father's former subordinate and am currently the head of the Human Race's Primordial God Blood Project."

"Don't ask me anything about your parents. They already explained everything in a dream before they passed away. You will know the truth in the future."

"I've come here today for only one thing."

He looked intently at Chen Shi, Xie Zhixian, and Xiang Yu, and said, "Can you help me with my experiment?"

"A generous reward awaits!"

Chen Shi was a little nervous and asked, "How do we conduct the experiment?"

After a few seconds of contemplation, Wu Su said, "Well... actually, it's not really related to you. We already have a general understanding of your situation."

"After the junior high school prefectural competition, we went to the site to collect your blood and observed something special."

"The manic factor in your blood has changed."

Chen Shi was a little nervous.

Wu Su crossed her arms, adjusted her glasses, and said, "You probably don't know this, but in ancient times, our planet wasn't called Azure Star; it was called Apocalypse Star."

"And the blood in your bodies was not originally called the Primordial God Blood, but the Blood of Revelation."

"I bring this up mainly to explain the changes in you."

"It was a change that was hard to describe. The H element in the mania factor, which you can directly understand as the bestial element, had transformed into another form."

"When I looked at it under a microscope, the original H element looked like a viscous black swamp, but after transforming its form... it looked like the sky."

"Azure sky."

"We originally wanted to call it the Blue Factor, but we also felt a sense of sacredness from it, even a sense of divinity from mythology."

"Therefore, we decided to call it the Apocalyptic Factor."

"It contains vitality and a very strong sense of majesty, but we may not know the specifics until you complete this journey."

Chen Shi listened intently, while Wu Su turned to Xie Zhixian and the others: "The blood flowing in your veins is not pure Primordial God Blood, but contains other things as well. Therefore, I hope you can cooperate with us to uncover the truth about Gray Martial."

Xie Zhixian frowned and said, "Isn't Gray Weapon just a weaker version of Black Weapon?"

"No, no, no, no, no." Wu Su kept shaking her head: "You children know nothing about life or evolution."

"The evolutionary tree has branches, and it cannot be simply distinguished by strength and weakness. You see, humans evolved from monkeys, but monkeys can also evolve into other powerful monsters."

"The gray weapon is not necessarily a weaker version of the black weapon; it could also be the original version of the Blood of Apocalypse."

"And your Dark Weapon isn't necessarily the final version of power; evolution is a never-ending journey, my friend!"

"Black Martial is not a so-called natural power, but an energy formed by the convergence of the blood of nine ancient gods."

"It is the ultimate experimental result of ancient civilization!"

"But is this the end of the wisdom of the Blue Star civilization?"

"Can we, the descendants, surpass our ancient predecessors?"

"Why was that era interrupted? Why did the ancient gods want us to start all over again, instead of building upon their achievements? Did something go wrong during their experiments, or did their era suffer an irreversible error, leading them to violently destroy everything?"

"That's a problem!"

"Can a tenth type of blood be added to your Apocalyptic Blood?"

"That's a problem too!"

"Also, can other genes be added to your gray weapons? Won't that cause mutations?"

"So many problems are laid out before us, yet you've only scratched the surface: who's stronger and who's weaker?"

"We exist so that you can defy fate!"

"Superpower Evolution Orb"

"Ability Enhancement Orb!"

"A divine-level potion."

"Element Amplifier".

"Blah blah blah".

"They're all man-made!"
