High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Chapter 166 Special Feature: Invulnerable to Blades and Spears! (Please Subscribe)

With that in mind, Chen Fan no longer hesitated and added 199 experience points.

The mental energy in his mind instantly doubled, and an unprecedented sense of fulfillment surged into his heart.

Close your eyes, and everything in the house appears clearly and vividly in your mind.

[Moon Gazing Technique: Entering the Inner Chamber (0%), Characteristics: Concentration Level 3, Meditation Level 3, Conservation Level 2]

Chen Fan had expected that no new features would be unlocked, so it wasn't surprising.

According to Meng Yu, once you reach the level of "entering the inner sanctum," you can visualize all the phases of the moon and maintain them for a period of time. Only by repeatedly visualizing the process of the moon changing from new moon to full moon and back again can you be considered to have achieved great success.

He pondered for a moment, trying to visualize the changing phases of the moon in his mind.

The process went smoothly, and it lasted for several minutes without him feeling tired at all.

"It must be because my spiritual power is too high. It's not just the effect of when it was at its peak. Even things that can only be done when the Moon Gazing Technique is at its perfected, I can probably do now, and..."

His gaze fell on the skill bar.

My proficiency in the Moon Gazing Technique has increased by about one percent.

Based on this efficiency, it would take 500 minutes, or 8 hours, to raise your proficiency to the highest level.

It's important to understand that for those C-level Awakeners, the time it takes to elevate the Moon Gazing Technique to the Great Perfection stage is measured in years.

"Let's continue."

This time, 400 experience points were consumed. In addition to feeling a surge of mental power in my mind, a strange feeling also welled up in my heart.

Chen Fan was overjoyed; without a doubt, this meant a new feature had been unlocked.

[Moon Gazing Technique: Mastery (0%), Characteristics: Concentration Level 4, Meditation Level 4, Conservation Level 3, Knowledge Through Insight Level 1]

"To infer two things from one?"

Chen Fan scratched his head. What kind of characteristic is this?

However, when he saw it clearly, a look of shock immediately appeared on his face.

[Learn One Thing, Know Two: For each level a skill is upgraded, the experience required to advance to the next martial arts realm is reduced by 10%]

He was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening.

Comprehension?

Can improving one's mental strength also enhance their comprehension?

Upon closer examination, this might make sense, because people with high mental strength can focus more intently on whatever they do than the average person, and they can also learn things faster than the average person.

Therefore,

For others, reaching the pinnacle of the Moon Gazing Technique means an increase in comprehension and a reduction in cultivation time.

In my own experience, this means a reduction in the amount of experience points required.

Chen Fan glanced at the remaining experience points, 643 points, wondering if he could max out the Moon Gazing Technique.

He tried adding a little bit, and his proficiency in the Moon Gazing Technique increased by 0.138%.

"Just as I thought."

Chen Fan nodded.

According to the previous pattern, if you want to advance from the Great Completion Realm to the Perfection Realm, you need 800 experience points to double your experience points.

Because of the bonus from the "Know One, Know Two" trait, you can reduce the experience requirement by 10%, so only 720 points are needed.

Unfortunately, it's still quite a bit short.

Are we just going to give up like this?

Chen Fan frowned.

It's important to understand that reaching the Perfect Realm is a doubling of improvement, and with further enhancement and amplification, the numerical values ​​will differ drastically.

Suddenly, he thought of something, closed his eyes, and, as before, visualized the changing phases of the moon in his mind.

Five minutes passed, he stopped meditating, and looked around.

The proficiency level of the Moon Gazing Technique increased from 0.138% to 1.128%, earning a bonus of one percent.

"About the same as before."

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that doubling the mental strength and doubling the difficulty cancel each other out.

It still takes about eight hours.

"Anyway, for me right now, staying up all night won't have any effect. I might as well start visualizing later and improve the Moon Gazing Technique to perfection before strengthening it."

"As for the remaining 600-plus experience points..."

Chen Fan thought for a moment and decided to use it on the Soul-Destroying Finger.

If you want to use the Thirteen Protectors Horizontal Training, wait a while. If you still have extra resources later, or if you can't continue to improve, then use them to upgrade the Thirteen Protectors Horizontal Training.

Otherwise, it would be a waste to use such a large amount of mental energy only for defense.

Time passed second by second.

1.138%,

1.148%,

1.158%,

His proficiency in the Moon Gazing Technique was slowly increasing at an ant-like pace.

When he reached fifty percent, Chen Fan felt considerable pressure, and sweat dripped from his forehead.

However, he persisted.

At 60%, a pricking sensation came from my brain, and the pain gradually increased with each visualization.

"Phew, looks like I overestimated myself a bit."

Chen Fan opened his eyes and let out a long breath. Since that's the case, he would recover through meditation.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, placed his hands on his thighs with his palms facing up, and activated his meditation skill with a thought.

In an instant, the mental energy in his mind recovered at a rapid pace.

After all, it's a level 4 meditation skill, which can restore 40% of mental energy every hour, and it will be fully restored in two and a half hours.

Before we knew it, dawn had broken.

Voices could be heard coming from downstairs.

Chen Fan got out of bed, went downstairs to have breakfast, told his family not to come up and disturb him, and then went back upstairs to continue his meditation.

Around 7 a.m., the state of moon-gazing finally reached perfection.

[Moon Gazing Technique: Perfected (Cannot be upgraded), Characteristics: Concentration Level 5, Meditation Level 5, Conservation Level 4, Knowledge Through Insight Level 2]

"Does it lack the perfect characteristic?"

He was somewhat surprised and checked again.

Ultimately, they had no choice but to accept reality.

However, the level 2 "Know One, Know Two" trait, which can save 20% of experience points, is already incredibly powerful.

The further you progress, the more experience points you save.

"Not only does it lack the Perfection trait, but it also seems that there is no cap on the Proficiency Level."

Chen Fan thought to himself.

Perhaps spiritual martial arts are different from ordinary martial arts?

For a moment, he had no clue what to do. After thinking about it for a while without success, he turned his attention to the Soul-Destroying Finger.

Added some experience points.

Proficiency increased by 4.1%.

"It seems that it used to take 30 experience points to reach the beginner level, but now it only takes 24."

Chen Fan smiled and then invested 23 experience points.

The mental energy in his mind increased again, but it was much smaller compared to the impact of the Moon Gazing Technique.

【Soul-Destroying Finger: Beginner Level (0%), Trait: Focusing Spirit Level 1】

[Gathering Spirit: Increases mental strength by 30% for each level gained]

"No wonder, it was only 30%."

Chen Fan suddenly realized,

The difference is indeed significant, more than double.

However, this Soul-Destroying Finger is a mental attack type, which is understandable.

After investing 48 experience points, his mental strength increased again, and at the same time, a memory surfaced in his mind.

【Soul-Destroying Finger: Slightly Proficient (0%), Characteristics: Focusing Spirit Level 2, Soul-Destroying Finger Level 1】

【Soul-Destroying Finger: Active skill. After activation, it consumes mental energy. The person targeted will suffer mental damage equal to the amount of mental energy consumed. The higher the mental energy consumed, the larger the attack range. For each level increase, the damage increases by an additional 30%.】

"Is the damage equivalent to the mental energy consumed?"

Chen Fan was somewhat pleased.

Therefore, it seems that the mental energy consumed by this active skill is entirely under one's own control.

You can use one-tenth or one-hundredth.

The more it is used, the wider its scope becomes.

"Those awakened ones should also have similar mental skills, and what those skills are should be related to the superpowers they have awakened."

Chen Fan thought to himself.

Judging from its appearance, the power of the Soul-Destroying Finger is more than twice as strong. I wonder what level it is at among Awakened Ones.

Another point,

This feature is clearly the essence of the product.

The earlier you unlock it, the greater the boost, but does that mean there won't be any new features later?

Unfortunately, it seems that's really the case.

After consuming 96 and then 192 experience points respectively,

【Soul-Destroying Finger: Mastery (0%), Traits: Spirit Gathering Level 4, Soul-Destroying Finger Level 3】

"hiss……"

Chen Fan gasped.

According to the pattern, it takes 480 experience points to reach the perfect state, but with an 80% discount, it's 384 points.

The remaining experience points, 282, are not enough.

After a long pause, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

I wonder if reaching the Perfect Realm will unlock new features.

For now, we can only leave it as a mystery.

As for the remaining 282 points.

You definitely can't keep them. Experience points aren't like potential points; the sooner you use them up, the better.

"Then let's enhance the Thirteen Bodyguards' external martial arts."

He was also very curious about these body-refining techniques.

After consuming some experience points, the proficiency of the Thirteen Protectors' Horizontal Training increased by 6.25%.

After gaining another 15 experience points, Chen Fan felt a slight warm current flowing through his body, and his physique became much stronger.

Moreover, the skin and muscles all over the body felt firm, and the head seemed to have hardened considerably.

The whole process lasted about five seconds.

Chen Fan looked over curiously.

【Thirteen Bodyguards' Horizontal Training: Beginner Level (0%), Characteristics: Broad Back and Strong Waist Level 1, Invulnerability to Swords and Spears Level 1】

"Two characteristics?"

Chen Fan was delighted; it was a newly emerging characteristic.

[Broad Back and Mighty Waist: For every skill level increased, the Constitution attribute permanently increases by ten points]

[Invulnerability: For each level the skill is upgraded, the user's physical defense increases by 30%.]

"Ten points in constitution attribute!"

Chen Fan couldn't help but marvel; this must be the martial art that had improved his physique the most among all the martial arts he had practiced.

The second characteristic is that it is invulnerable to swords and spears.

Chen Fan couldn't help but reach out and touch his arms and thighs, feeling that his skin had indeed become much firmer and had a faint sheen.

This feature has been unlocked even though I've only just started learning it. If I reach perfection, the boost can reach 1.5 times.

In other words, with a constitution of 1200, one's overall defensive capabilities are comparable to those of a martial artist with a constitution of 2400!

"I wonder what that means, but it should be comparable to a high-level ferocious beast, right?"

Chen Fan thought to himself.

Of course, he had no intention of using his body to withstand the machine gun fire.

It's more of a safety net; if I'm not careful and get hit by a machine gun, I might get injured, but it won't be fatal.

"Keep improving."

Chen Fan had a premonition,

This martial art can unlock even stronger features later on.

No matter what, it is a combination of thirteen martial arts styles.
