Chapter 759 - 252 Self-Created Extreme Martial Arts Style! Eruption of 2 Dark Forces, Master Shocked!_2

"Jie Mai Force, it’s a success!"

Lu Changsheng’s face revealed a slight smile.

According to the divisions within the martial arts circle, as long as one can unleash a single strike of Dark Force, they are undoubtedly a Dark Force Martial Artist.

And Lu Changsheng, right now, is a Dark Force!

From Light Force to Dark Force, the time he took... was merely one hour each day!

Well, according to this world’s time calculation, it should be two hours.

However, after unleashing a strike of Jie Mai Force, Lu Changsheng felt a sudden weakness within his body.

His entire body seemed about to collapse.

"This body has just been injured, and the heart is still in a damaged state. Releasing Jie Mai Force at this time places too much strain on the heart. I need to rest and recover!"

Lu Changsheng thought for a moment, then lay down on the bed.

"The people outside are probably thinking I’m dead. Delaying too long wouldn’t be good either. Looks like Lu Yuan got caught up in some public opinion storm out there."

"Better not cause any unnecessary shock..."

After thinking about it, Lu Changsheng decided it was better to ’come back to life.’ He couldn’t really ’die.’

Thus, he slowly got out of bed and opened the door to the operating room.

"Pop."

The operating room door opened.

Outside, there was a crowd of reporters, along with many doctors, nurses, and security guards trying to maintain order.

The hospital was in the process of announcing the death of "Lu Yuan."

But then, the door to the operating room opened, and Lu Yuan appeared alive before everyone, under numerous cameras and lenses.

"Ah..."

"Lu Yuan isn’t dead."

"Director, didn’t your hospital just announce Lu Yuan’s death?"

Countless reporters and doctors looked stunned and disbelieving.

Especially the doctor who had tried to resuscitate Lu Yuan, who widened his eyes in shock.

Lu Yuan had actually come back to life?

Yet the reporters, rather than stunned, seemed excited.

This news somehow felt even more sensational...

...

Lu Changsheng had already been back home for some time.

His family was simple: two parents and a younger sister.

Both parents were university professors, considered highly educated intellectuals.

But Lu Yuan had developed a fondness for martial arts, secretly training during his college years.

If not for the recent martial arts tournament, Lu Yuan’s parents would still be unaware that he practiced martial arts.

Lu Changsheng’s parents strictly forbade him from continuing martial arts training, but he didn’t pay much attention to them.

He indeed needed to take a good rest during this time.

And so, he simply stopped training for now.

However, not training didn’t mean Lu Changsheng stopped contemplating how to consolidate martial arts in this world.

This world also had the internet.

And the internet was a wonderful tool.

Online, information from Light Force to Gang Force was almost universally available.

With Lu Changsheng’s comprehension and cultivation level, he could gain an overarching understanding of things. Even if he had never practiced any so-called martial arts, he could grasp the essence of martial arts in this world.

From Light Force to Gang Force—at its core, it was fundamentally a form of striking technique.

It leverages various methodologies to defeat opponents.

In other words, it was a method designed for combat—a way to kill.

This world currently exists in an overall state of peace.

During an era of peace, methods designed for killing have very limited practical uses.

As a result, the decline of martial arts is entirely natural.

But even if martial arts weren’t declining, Lu Yuan currently had little interest in martial arts.

Because he knew martial arts itself had gone astray.

"No matter how much you train in martial arts, it’s ultimately just about enhancing technique."

"Even reaching Gang Force doesn’t have much value—especially when faced with guns and cannons."

"There’s an old saying that has echoed through countless circles: ’Beyond ten steps, the gun is faster. Within ten steps, the gun is faster and more accurate.’"

"While it might be a jest, it undoubtedly illustrates the utter inefficacy of martial arts when confronting firearms."

"The reason is simple: martial arts is not martial arts cultivation, and it cannot step onto the transcendent path!"

Lu Changsheng’s eyes glimmered with a sharp light.

He understood clearly: if one wanted to consolidate martial arts, they must elevate martial arts to a transcendent level.

What is transcendence?

In the Holy Land, the Divine Power Realm is essentially transcendence.

But in this world, there’s no way to cultivate to the Divine Power Realm.

Moreover, the existing martial arts cultivation methods cannot be applied in this world whatsoever.

This world doesn’t even contain the slightest trace of spiritual energy.

No wonder the energy levels are so low.

In a world like this, finding a path to transcendence and consolidating martial arts remains a tremendous challenge.

However, it’s not entirely impossible.

"If this world’s martial arts or other methods can’t lead to transcendence, then I will create my own!"

During his time resting at home, Lu Changsheng had been pondering how to devise a method for martial arts cultivation that could step onto the transcendent path.

"Even though the world is different, the rules are different, and even human bodies are slightly distinct, certain principles remain universal."

"For instance, the most fundamental element of living beings—the way they obtain energy—relies on food, on consumption."

"With no external spiritual energy, I’ll extract it from food instead."

"Though the human body is fragile, it can grow and develop, and the differences among individuals are vast. This growth and development can absolutely be capitalized upon."

"By utilizing food, consuming large amounts of energy, I would induce the body to grow and develop continuously. Once it reaches its limit, I would again control the body’s growth and force further consumption of massive amounts of food."

"Under certain conditions, this could enable a second phase of growth, a second developmental burst!"

"Potentially even third, fourth, or fifth phases..."

The more Lu Changsheng thought, the more plausible it seemed to give it a try.

In Lu Changsheng’s mind, there existed a cultivation technique—a Divine Power-level martial arts method.

Its essence was to allow people to continuously unlock the potential of their bodies, endlessly encouraging growth and development.

But in the Holy Land, such cultivation techniques were deemed rather pointless.
