Chapter 42 Tianlou advances to minor success, demons launch a surprise attack!
How did the Heavenly Leakage Divine Power advance from initial mastery to minor mastery?
Upon seeing this message, Lu Ming finally understood why he had that strange feeling.
He immediately opened the supernatural power panel to check.
[Acupoint Superpowers]: Heavenly Leak (Minor Success), Point Kill (Initial Success), Finger Flick (Initial Success).
"As expected! The realm following the Heavenly Leak is no longer the initial stage, but has become the minor stage!"
Lu Ming's eyes lit up, and then, with a thought, he used the Heavenly Leakage Divine Power.
His vision suddenly changed; the wind became a gray dotted line, and many black holes appeared in his field of vision, on stone tablets, broken paving stones, and dilapidated courtyard walls, etc.
"Huh? There really is a change!"
Lu Ming's eyes flashed, and he realized that his field of vision had suddenly become farther away.
In the past, all he had seen in this courtyard was the breeze and the dark, leaky hole.
But now, his gaze actually "penetrated" through the courtyard wall and saw the wind outside the wall, and the black leaky hole!
"The bluestone path outside the wall, the small holes in the trees by the roadside, and a bunch of black holes that keep moving... Oh, that's the direction of the training ground."
Lu Ming looked around with inexplicable excitement.
Wherever his gaze falls, whether living or non-living, anything with a black hole or flaw will appear before him.
Moreover, because he possesses the ability to kill with a single blow, he can sense the aura emanating from the black leak hole.
Therefore, he could almost identify who it was by looking through the black hole!
Even if there are walls or other obstacles in front of them, they cannot hide from his gaze.
This area is... a radius of one hundred zhang!
That is, more than 300 meters!
This range is ten times that of the Earth-Splitting Divine Power, Mountain-Pushing Divine Power, and Finger-Flicking Divine Power.
"So powerful!" Lu Ming was overjoyed.
With this supernatural power, he would essentially have X-ray vision and would no longer be afraid of being ambushed.
Of course, there is a small drawback: it only works when he sees it; it has no effect if he closes his eyes or if it is outside his sight.
But this was nothing serious; the fact that the Heavenly Leakage Divine Power, at a minor level, had this effect already surprised and delighted him.
"I never imagined that the effects of my supernatural power would be so greatly enhanced after breaking through to a higher realm!"
Lu Ming's mind raced. It seemed he needed to advance his supernatural abilities as much as possible.
However, he only knew one way to advance his supernatural powers: practice makes perfect.
The reason why the Heavenly Leakage Divine Power was the first to advance to the minor mastery level was because he was constantly stepping on black leaks in the road while walking.
He also frequently used his supernatural powers to observe the surrounding black leaks.
More importantly, using this supernatural power does not require physical exertion.
However, supernatural abilities like Earth Splitting consume a great deal of physical strength each time they are used, which affects cultivation and makes them unusable frequently.
This type of supernatural ability means that advancement will be relatively slow.
"Huh? What's going on!"
While deep in thought, Lu Ming used the Heavenly Leakage Divine Power to look around curiously.
Suddenly, he saw an extremely terrifying aura rushing towards the surface from underground a hundred meters away.
Just looking at that imposing aura made him tremble with fear.
The 100-meter distance made his body stiffen and he felt immense pressure.
The outermost edge of the iron stake area is roughly this distance.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming's expression changed.
In other words, that thing's aura was more than ten times stronger than the corpse of the Iron-Scaled Python Demon.
"demon!"
Lu Ming's pupils contracted sharply, and he guessed the identity of that thing in his mind.
Besides demons, what powerful beings might be underground?
But wasn't it said that when demons attacked the Martial Arts Division's troops, Wei Jinlin went to meet them? How come he's here?
Could it be a feint attack?
Demons possess such wisdom?!
For a moment, Lu Ming didn't dare to move, his mind racing.
He pondered a solution, his gaze fixed on that direction, where the demons had charged forward, and there were two auras emanating from it.
One of them had a familiar air about him, as if he were an acquaintance.
The other one was completely unfamiliar, yet possessed a powerful aura. It seemed to be the first to sense the arrival of the demon, and suddenly clung tightly to the familiar person.
boom!!
He could clearly hear a booming sound coming from a hundred meters away; it was the sound of demons bursting out of the ground.
The unfamiliar aura suddenly retreated, and at that moment, the familiar aura rapidly weakened. When it collided with the demon, it had already lost its life force and was almost like a dead object.
"You beast!"
Just then, a loud shout came from the sky, and a terrifying aura rushed in from the sky.
Lu Ming looked up and saw that Wei Jinlin had returned.
At this moment, Wei Jinlin descended from the sky, his imposing presence overwhelming. Lu Ming was both surprised and delighted upon seeing him.
Wei Jinlin's aura at this moment was actually stronger than that of the demons! This means that Wei Jinlin is stronger than the demons!
In this way, the demons will no longer have a chance to attack, and he will be safe.
Rumble~
In the vision of the Heavenly Leak Divine Power, the demon's aura rapidly receded downwards, not daring to contend with Wei Jinlin.
Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief as his body returned to normal, but he was immediately covered in cold sweat.
It turns out that the true demons possess such terrifying power that the Iron-Scaled Python Demon's corpse pales in comparison.
However, what puzzled him was that although Wei Jinlin's aura was stronger than that of the demons, he did not have the oppressive feeling of the demons, but was quite restrained.
Is it because human martial artists have a more restrained aura, while demons exude an outward aura? Or is there another reason?
Lu Ming didn't have time to think about that for the moment. Seeing Wei Jinlin return, he quickly walked out of the courtyard to meet up with the others.
To prevent the demons from coming again, and him from being ambushed while alone.
At this moment, outside the Grand Martial Arts Arena, in front of a collapsed courtyard, Wei Jinlin, Xu Shou, and many other disciples gathered there.
Lu Ming thought of that familiar aura, squeezed into the inner circle, and looked inside. His expression changed slightly.
Half of a body lay on the ground, its skin withered, as if all the blood had drained from its body, leaving it skin and bones, yet there was no blood on the ground.
Lu Ming stared at the strange corpse and recognized its features from the vaguely recognizable face.
This person was none other than Zhao Zhiqi, the genius of the Zhao family!
"It's Zhao Zhi Qiu! It's actually Zhao Zhi Qiu!"
"He was so unlucky; he actually ran into a demon."
"He would have been fine if he had stayed at the Grand Martial Arts Arena, but he insisted on going out with others."
"Who knew the demons would use a feint? That's incredibly cunning."
The surrounding martial arts disciples were discussing among themselves, most of them feeling a sense of shared sorrow.
The demons are too fierce and arrogant; next time, it might be their turn.
Lu Ming's expression turned rather unpleasant; he hadn't expected it to be Zhao Zhi Qiu.
The young master of the Zhao family, who had previously chatted and laughed with him, was one of the top five martial arts geniuses in the local martial arts bureau. He had even made a deal with him, spending two hundred taels of silver, which left a very good impression on him.
In the blink of an eye, he became a dried-up corpse, dying a violent death!
Lu Ming's gaze swept around, then suddenly his eyes narrowed, fixing on one person in the crowd.
That person's aura was the same unfamiliar aura he had just witnessed; it was the one who clung tightly to Zhao Zhi Qiu before the demons arrived.
"This person is..."
