“Oooh, it’s starting, it’s starting!”
In the audience room of the Yellow Dragon Temple, Fan Xinglou excitedly applauded while looking at a floating screen in mid-air.
On that screen, the battle inside the Stars Room was being broadcast.
In the not-so-spacious Stars Room, a Giant was wielding massive fists, repeatedly pounding the ground all around him. The ground shattered crisply under the relentless strikes, and dust billowed into the air, creating an awe-inspiring spectacle.
Meanwhile, Fang Li, with his ever-shifting agility, gracefully dodged the heavy punches launched by the Giant, hovering at its side.
Watching this scene, Fan Xinglou smiled contentedly and said. “Very good, his Prana control has become almost completely proficient. His footwork is as mysterious and exquisite as before. However, defeating this opponent won’t be so easy.”
Hearing Fan Xinglou’s words, Zhao Hufeng sighed and said, “Master, since you’re well aware of that, why did you bring out a Tool as Little Junior Brother’s sparring partner? It seems like Little Junior Brother doesn’t even have Lux with him?”
In today’s world, the most common source of energy was either various other things or Mana. After Invertia’s attack on Earth, which introduced Mana to the world, research related to Mana and Invertia meteorites became the predominant field of study.
This branch of research was collectively known as Meteor Engineering.
While there were still many unknowns about how Mana operated, the study of Meteor Engineering had made significant progress by utilizing the abundant rare metals found within Invertia’s meteorites. These metals were known as Manadyte, and they were widely used in practical applications.
Among these, Manadyte served as the core component for the development of weaponry.
This became known as Lux.
Utilizing Manadyte as the core, Lux could transform Mana into a form of energy weapon. This weapon could solidify by allowing Manadyte to remember elemental patterns from an activation body called a ‘Shell.’ Lux could generate blade-like beams or bullets by condensing the surrounding Mana, and its power could be adjusted.
As a result, Lux weapons used in combat had significantly more power than conventional physical weapons and were now commonly used as the primary weapons of Genestellars.
However, Lux weapons were just those that utilized Manadyte as the core.
Since Manadyte contained highly pure Urm Manadyte, Lux weapons could be powered by this, too. This category of armaments was known as Ogre Lux.
Ogre Lux weapons possessed not only a substantial energy reserve, far exceeding regular Lux, but they also had Unique Abilities. However, Ogre Lux weapons were exceedingly challenging to wield, with varying power levels depending on the user.
It was said that Ogre Lux weapons had a consciousness-like aspect and would choose their users. Without being selected by an Ogre Lux, even the most powerful individuals couldn’t use these weapons.
Nevertheless, within Jie Long Seventh Institute, there existed another category of items.
That was what Zhao Hufeng referred to as Immortal Tools.
“I understand that the previous generations of ‘Banyuu Tenra’ were skilled in the art of pyrotechnics, capable of crafting various Martial Tools and weapons. These Martial Tools are what we call Immortal Tools.”
Hufeng stared at the floating space window with absolute certainty and said, “That Giant is Master’s Immortal Tool, isn’t it?”
“Who knows?” Fan Xinglou played dumb for a moment, glancing around. “I just happened to want to check on the progress of my disciple’s training. I didn’t do anything strange, did I?”
“No persuasive power at all,” Zhao Hufeng bluntly replied. “This is definitely Master’s doing.”
“…You really don’t mince your words,” Fan Xinglou muttered but continued nonchalantly, “It’s nothing, just wanted to see the kid’s true abilities. This is also part of his training. Haven’t you been through similar training?”
“It’s precisely because of that, I wanted to say a few words,” Zhao Hufeng sighed again, then asked, “But that Immortal Tool’s power seems quite formidable. Is Little Junior Brother okay?”
“He’s fine, he’s fine… Oooh!”
Fan Xinglou responded absentmindedly at first but then let out a surprised exclamation.
Zhao Hufeng also saw the battle through the space window.
There, the situation had suddenly changed.
…
“Boom!”
In an explosive and heavy crash, the Giant’s fist struck the ground once more, shattering it, kicking up dust, and sending a powerful shockwave rippling all around. The attack’s force was astonishing.
“Even with Prana for defense, taking such a punch wouldn’t end well, right?”
Fang Li swiftly dodged the terrifying blow with a gust-like agility, then charged forward, reaching the Giant’s chest. He unleashed a powerful kick.
“BOOM!”
The forceful kick landed heavily on the Giant’s chest, causing it to stagger back several steps under a series of heavy footsteps, it was as if the Giant was struck by lightning.
However, apart from that, the Giant showed no other signs of being affected.
“It’s really tough,” Fang Li couldn’t help but mutter.
The same scene had played out several times already.
This Giant before him not only possessed incredible attack power, but its body’s hardness was also beyond that of an ordinary person, effortlessly enduring Fang Li’s kicks.
“I guess I have no other choice,” Fang Li leaped back a step and stood his ground as he thought of this.
“Whoosh!”
In the sound of the wind, the Giant took another step forward and unleashed another formidable strike.
However, this time, Fang Li did not evade.
Staring at the massive fist coming down with tremendous force, Fang Li’s eyes transformed into ice-blue Mystic Eyes.
Then, a sharp dagger appeared in his palm.
The next moment, a blade of light burst forth.
“Swoosh!”
A tearing sound echoed as if it had severed a human body.
