1280 Sturdy And Tough!
Aside from scriptures and battle techniques, Wang Teng also received the ultima strength from Huo Qiya.
He received 1500 points of the latter.
Ultima Strength: 2300/6000 (sixth-level)
He had already gotten this attribute from Huo Qiya in the past; the addition made it rise to the sixth-level.
His understanding of this ultima reached a new level.
Wang Teng felt that he could kill a cosmos stage martial warrior with a punch.
The attack was extremely powerful, considering he was a celestial stage martial warrior.
The attribute bubbles dropped by Huo Qiya weren't bad. Although he did gain some benefits from him, benefits should be gained all the time.
Given the chance, Wang Teng would strive to get more bubbles out of Huo Qiya again.
The latter—who was training hard at the moment in one of the craft's training rooms—shuddered. He felt a chill for no reason.
Of course, the other four deputies dropped many attribute bubbles too, being deputy regimental commanders.
Wang Teng gained a physical training scripture from Wei Tong, called Bronze Armor Scripture. It was also at the universe stage, so it was anything but ordinary.
One of the military martial warrior's benefits was the chance to trade for high-rank scriptures and battle techniques in the military system.
Universe stage scriptures could be exchanged.
His deputies had reached the cosmos stage, so they needed to get some universe-level scriptures. Of course, if strapped for credits, they could take a step back and look for heaven stage scriptures.
However, it would be for the best if they could practice a universe stage scripture right from the start.
The scripture's upper limit would determine their future limit. Practicing a heaven stage scripture would at most allow them to reach the heaven stage.
To reach the universe stage, a switch to a new scripture would be needed.
This was an arduous task for most martial warriors, as it took a long time acclimating to the new scripture; the best way was to practice a high-rank scripture from the start.
Huo Qiya and the others considered the universe stage as the furthest they could see themselves reaching. Even so, the hopes were slim, and would be satisfied if they attained the heaven stage.
But, everyone could dream. What if they succeeded?
All practitioners had the hopes of becoming a universe stage martial warrior and the boss of their own territory.
That was why they aimed high and chose universe-level scriptures. They had to try no matter what.
As for the eternal stage, it didn't even cross their minds. They would save that though for a time after they reached the universe stage.
Most of the warriors of the universe stage would never get to reach that level. There was a chasm separating them from their goal.
Wang Teng received 1300 points of the Bronze Armor Scripture, going right past the foundation stage and reaching the well-versed stage.
Bronze Armor Scripture (universe stage): 300/3000 (well-versed)
Wang Teng closed his eyes to sense the new scripture, and the practice method appeared in his mind. He felt somewhat at a loss.
All physical training skills entailed self-abuse!
Just like the Savage Elephant Form, he needed to use some inhumane method to train his body to strengthen it.
Fortunately, he could raise their levels via attribute bubbles, so he didn't need to go through the abuse.
Practicing both scriptures at the same time would be unbearable!
People could think he wanted to commit suicide.
The only major difference was that the Bronze Armor Scripture was based on the metal element scripture, while the Savage Elephant Form was of the earth element.
Fortunately, he could use both skills in tandem.
But… no one would be mad enough to practice two physical scriptures at the same time, right?
Well, except for Wang Teng who was a veritable bug.
He wondered what it would be like to execute both scriptures simultaneously, and realized that the result could be a little strange.
The image would be an eyesore.
He had seen Huo Qiya after executing the Savage Elephant Form. He shot up in height and his muscles bulged out, turning him into a small giant.
The Bronze Armor Scripture was similar, making the user taller and bulkier, with a body as hard as metal.
Would he turn into a giant ironman if he used both together?
Sturdy and tough!
Indeed, the Ancient God's Body was the best. A gold mark would appear on his forehead and that was it; no changes were made to his body.
This body technique was more thoughtful in comparison.
Besides, considering the transformation like that of a superhero, the Ancient God's Body was still quite handsome.
He also received strength ultima bubbles from Wei Tong, which came as a surprise.
He didn't expect the latter to possess this ultima too!
Strength Ultima: 4100/6000 (sixth-level)
He received 1800 points, causing his ultima strength attribute to rise again.
This felt comfortable!
Two consecutive increases were better than a slow and gradual increment.
Feng Gang's attribute bubbles weren't special. Aside from constellation metal force, he dropped a metal ultima.
He had a great understanding of this category so he dropped a sizable amount of attribute bubbles. There were 3200 points in total.
Metal Ultima: 8500/9000 (ninth-level)
This ultima had already reached the ninth-level. The new influx of attributes took it to the peak of the ninth-level. He would soon reach the tenth-level.
Once that level was at hand, the attack would become amazingly powerful.
Wang Teng's understanding of the move would hit the perfect stage too.
Even heaven stage martial warriors would have it hard to attain the perfect stage for their ultimas. At most they would reach the eighth or ninth-level.
That was high enough to support them in understanding how to cast a domain.
However, this would still affect their enlightenment of their soul origin, power of rules and such in the future.
Accumulation from the start was important for that reason.
Wang Teng didn't place much importance in this at the start, but Round Ball, the legacy of the Flaming River Universe Lord, and the memories hidden in the Devour Nihility Beast kept emphasizing its importance so he placed more attention on it.
The real value of receiving the legacy of the Flaming River Universe Lord and the Devour Nihility Beast came from that precious knowledge.
Many martial warriors would die for it.
That was why a master imparting teachings to his disciples was extremely important in the universe. There was a huge difference between someone with a master and someone without.
Jira mostly dropped constellation wood force, wood ultima, and imperial-level wood talent attribute bubbles.
There were 6500 points of constellation wood force in total; Wang Teng's was originally at the seventh-level of the celestial stage. The sizable addition provided by the Tiger Strike Force allowed him to break through to the eighth-level.
Constellation Wood Force: 3200/80000 (celestial stage eighth level)
Wang Teng smiled as he looked at his attributes board. At least one of his basic elements had a breakthrough.
He received 2100 points of wood ultima, which wasn't enough to reach the next level, and remained at the current eighth level. However his understanding deepened.
Wood Ultima: 5300/8000 (eighth-level)
Finally, he gained 3200 points of imperial-level wood talent.
Wang Teng already had some of it; the addition allowed his talent to become a little stronger.
Imperial-Level Wood Talent: 6200/25000
Although a small increment, it wasn't bad. He did perceive changes in his wood talent. This meant that he had improved considerably.
As for Marly, he was the one who surprised Wang Teng the most, since the fellow dropped wind element attributes.
Constellation Force (Wind)*5500
Imperial-Level Wind Talent*4000
Wing Ultima*4500
…
Wang Teng's constellation wind force was already at the third level of the celestial stage. The 5500 increase made it much stronger.
Constellation Wind Force: 18700/30000 (celestial stage third level)
Imperial-level wind talent wasn't useful to him, since he already had the divine talent. He had yet to find anyone with a superior gift.
On the other hand, the Wind Ultima… Not bad!
Wang Teng received the Wind Hell Ultima and the Raging Gale Ultima in the past. The former was a combination of Wind Ultima and Bloodlust Ultima, while the latter was a pure Wind Ultima, from the Wind Ultima category.
The three ultimas overlapped; he would need to come up with a method himself if he wanted to merge them. He couldn't rely on picking up attributes for this.
Wing Ultima: 2100/5000 (fifth-level)
His wind ultima was at the fifth-level, slightly weaker than the others. However, it rose quickly since he picked up many attribute bubbles after the latest war. It would have been hovering around the first and second level without this round of gains.
