Chapter 485: Chapter 485 – Sacrifice! Bajiquan! Unrivaled!




Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Given that to be the case, the difference between improving [Military Boxing] to Unfathomable and improving his attributes wasn’t too large . Of course, it was more cost-effective to improve his strength attribute alone .

However, if these 2600 points were invested in [Bajiquan], it would have been much more powerful than just increasing his strength attributes .

Of course, both attributes and skills were an important component of Wei Xiao Bei’s might .

At this moment, he truly felt his heart ache .

However, in the end, he grit his teeth and decided to sacrifice [Military Boxing] .

If Wei Xiao Bei didn’t have [Bajiquan] and [Three Emperor Cannon Fist], he would have kept [Military Boxing] . As it stands, the skill was simply too useless .

“Sacrifice!”

Wei Xiao Bei placed his attention on [Military Boxing] for ten whole seconds before finally activating the [Sacrifice] feature .

Suddenly, the words [Military Boxing] started burning and Wei Xiao Bei felt a part of his mind become empty as if many things were vanishing into thin air .

Wei Xiao Bei knew that [Sacrifice] had taken effect . All of his knowledge and experience related to [Military Boxing] was being burnt away . He didn’t dare to tally any longer . He immediately turned his attention to [Bajiquan] .

Wei Xiao Bei initially intended to choose [Electrical Work] to be improved . However, after some thought, he realized that [Bajiquan] was probably a better target . After all, [Military Boxing] was somewhat derived from [Bajiquan] . The success rate of this [Sacrifice] might be higher with [Bajiquan] as the target .

Wei Xiao Bei shifted his attention to [Bajiquan] . Traces of purple rushed out of the burning [Military Boxing] and dove into the words [Bajiquan] . This caused [Bajiquan] to start burning as well .

At the same time, Wei Xiao Bei felt his mind starting to ache intensely .

There was no doubt about it . This sacrificing of abilities wasn’t that simple .

At the very least, it should be some sort of adjustment to the soul .

Wei Xiao Bei didn’t know much about the soul, but after reading so many novels, he understood that anything happening to the soul was no small matter . Any careless mistake could result in terrifying consequences .

Just think about . Wei Xiao Bei’s [Enlightenment] only required him to look at someone and he would be able to make them feel a terrible sensation, let alone a feature that sacrificed skills .

From a certain aspect, the pain in his mind was normal and expected . It would be odd instead if his mind didn’t hurt .

The time taken for the sacrifice wasn’t short either . It had been over twenty minutes and [Military Boxing] was still burning away and had yet to fade .

In contrast, [Bajiquan] was starting to look extremely purple . Wei Xiao Bei felt like his attention was almost about to be sucked into the words as he focused on them .

As time slowly passed by, minute by minute, Wei Xiao Bei felt as if he was almost about to pass out from the pain . Fortunately, the pain he had experienced before this and the [Indomitable Spirit] skill allowed him to endure .

It had been over an hour already and the majority of the [Military Boxing] words had burnt away .

Wei Xiao Bei discovered that the rate at which the words were burning away was accelerating . The [Bajiquan] words almost seemed as if it had its own suction force that was continuing to extract purple aura from the [Military Boxing] words .

The [Bajiquan] words were now a bright purple, a speck of purple light appearing at their center .

Finally, the words [Military Boxing] faded completely and the last traces of purple aura flew into [Bajiquan] like swallows returning to their nests .

Wei Xiao Bei felt as if a nuke had gone off in his mind . He heard a loud explosion, so loud that his consciousness was almost blown away .

The purple light in the center of the [Bajiquan] words started to slowly fade away .

This process of fading away took a long time . Even Wei Xiao Bei didn’t know how long he waited for . The purple light was finally extinguished as a spot of black appeared in the same instance, spreading throughout the words . In the blink of an eye, the words [Bajiquan] had been stained completely black .

It was then that Wei Xiao Bei felt the pain in his mind fade away .

However, Wei Xiao Bei was now shocked to find that he couldn’t remember anything about [Military Boxing] . He had even completely forgotten the starting stance of [Military Boxing] . Even the circumstances when he first learned military boxing became somewhat vague and faint . He only remembered the squad leader of the recruits slowly teaching them military boxing, but he could not recall what he had taught at all .

This [Sacrifice] ability was truly powerful!

To think it could erase all memories by which he could recall the moves of [Military Boxing]!

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but activate [Deductive Reasoning] at the thought of this and started a comprehensive examination of his memory and body .

He finally let out a breath of relief after ten minutes of careful examination . No problems had occurred to his body or his memories . Only the memories related to [Military Boxing] had been completely erased .

Wei Xiao Bei then picked up his phone and looked at the time . He was surprised to find that it had been three days and two nights since he first started sacrificing [Military Boxing]!

There were several missed calls on his phone . It was a good thing he had turned on silent mode . Otherwise, the phone would probably have run out of battery .

The missed calls were all from Zhu Xin Yi, Huang Kun, and the others . Surprisingly, two of them were from Zhou Xing Yuan .

Hmm?

Wei Xiao Bei had barely used Zhou Xing Yuan’s connection ever since he became acquainted with Shan Bing . As such, they slowly became more distant from each other .

This was the first time in two months that Zhou Xing Yuan had actively called Wei Xiao Bei .

Wei Xiao Bei started to return the calls . He had Zhu Xin Yi properly manage the things in the dojo and informed her that he was going into seclusion, warning her not to call any more . Xin Yi also mentioned that Zhou Xing Yuan had been visiting repeatedly to look for him .

It seemed like Zhou Xing Yuan had run into an urgent matter . Thus, Wei Xiao Bei returned his call .

When the line connected, Zhou Xing Yuan’s voice rang through from the other end, “Boss! You finally picked up my call!”

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but start laughing . It seemed like Zhou Xing Yuan had been waiting for his call for a while, afraid of making too many calls himself and making him angry .

“I have been in seclusion for the past few days . Tell me what’s wrong . ”

Wei Xiao Bei spoke, but his attention shifted to the status panel . His face filled with delight and consequently, his tone became much friendlier .

[Bajiquan] had improved from Unfathomable to Unrivaled!

Moreover, there was a description of the skill after its improvement .

Bajiquan (Unrivaled): The host’s mastery of [Bajiquan] is now unrivaled! As [Bajiquan] has been improved to Unrivaled, the host may spend 2000 evolution points to impart [Bajiquan (Perfection)] to disciples .

In truth, when his skills first reached the Unfathomable level, Wei Xiao Bei had gotten a similar message . When his skill reached the Unfathomable level, he could spend 2000 evolution points to allow his disciples to obtain the skill at peak Expert level .

Wei Xiao Bei felt like this imparting ability wasn’t worth it then .

How many points did he need to spend to raise a skill to Expert level?

350 at the very most!

Yet, imparting the skill required 2000 evolution points! That was nearly 6 times its actual cost!

Of course, if he had enough evolution points to spend, it would be worth it as well . Wasting some points to create some experts was not a bad idea . However, someone who knew a skill at the Expert level could hardly be considered a true expert .

It was a different matter now .

At the same 2000 points, he could impart the skill at the Perfection level!

Increasing the skill to Perfection cost 1150 points and was still double what it should normally cost .

However, think slightly and you would realize that this was much more than cost-effective .

After all, apart from Wei Xiao Bei, who had the status panel, it was incredibly difficult for anyone else to obtain a skill . Moreover, honing this skill to Perfection required training in the Dust World, and even if you were a genius, it would take a minimum of five months to even adjust!

Even Xin Yi and Huang Kun needed Wei Xiao Bei to babysit them for a long time to reach their current level .

An ordinary person would require at least twenty years to achieve this strength, and a genius five years!

Being able to raise the skill by so much with just 2000 points was more than worth it . It simply saved so much time .

Unrivaled!

Images of [Bajiquan] filled Wei Xiao Bei’s mind . He even discovered many of the style’s flaws and weaknesses . However, these weaknesses could be compensated for in his mind . He only needed to spend some time to improve the techniques .

“Boos, I need to ask you for your help on some things ”

Zhou Xing Yuan’s voice came through the phone . Wei Xiao Bei wanted to try the might of his [Bajiquan] and didn’t want to speak to Zhou Xing Yuan any longer . Thus, he replied, “I will be back in a bit . Wait for me at the dojo . ”

“Iron Mountain Lean!”

Wei Xiao Bei hung up and tossed the phone to the side . He then limited his speed and strength to an ordinary human’s level and shouted as he charged forward and pressed his shoulder lightly against a three-meter boulder by the pool .

The boulder trembled slightly after his tackle . It then erupted in a loud explosion, turning into countless pebbles that scattered outward in the direction that Wei Xiao Bei had applied force towards .

Just as he expected!

[Bajiquan] at this level, had already exceeded ordinary inner martial arts . To think that Wei Xiao Bei could shatter a boulder so large with the attributes of the average person!

In truth, Unrivaled [Bajiquan] had allowed Wei Xiao Bei’s martial attainment to reach an even higher level .

Due to the lack of secret scriptures he could use as a reference, Wei Xiao Bei could only be sure that he had reached the upper levels or peak of cosmic jing . He might be even infinitely close to the rumored dan jing .

At any rate, Wei Xiao Bei could inexplicably feel the rhythm of the boulder .

Simply put, he could feel the breath of the boulder .

From a more scientific perspective, that would be the vibration frequency and magnetic field of the boulder .

Just like science titan, Nikola Tesla had once said, “Give me a kilotonne of explosives and I can split the Earth in half . ” (TN: Not a real quote . )

The basis of this quote was the Tesla Effect that Tesla had discovered . (TN: Not a legitimate scientific effect . )
