Comprehensive Network: Starting with Martial Artists to Stack Passive Skills

Chapter 97 Extraordinary Strength and Extraordinary Physique

The Heart of Conquest

When you are in "combat mode" and there are more than 3 enemies, all your attributes increase by 5%.

When dealing damage to elite or higher-level enemies, there is a chance to inflict the "Intimidation" status (reducing all attributes by 5%-10%).

[Each time you kill an elite or higher-ranking enemy, you will temporarily gain one stack of "Conquest" mark, each stack providing a 1% damage bonus (up to 10 stacks), which gradually dissipates after leaving combat.]

P.S.: Wow, I actually witnessed a true case of a lower-level cultivator overcoming an upper-level cultivator—Sect Master of the Holy Sect: [You have achieved a stage-specific leap in your life level!]

You have unlocked a new potential trait option!

[Potential selection will not determine your future development direction; it only serves as a supplement to the existing system.]

Please choose one of the following three potential traits:

【1. Blood Furnace (Advanced): Further improves the efficiency of blood circulation, enhances digestion and absorption, increases the conversion rate of nutrients obtained from food, energy, and even kills by 30%, and permanently and significantly increases the speed of blood recovery】

【2. Battle Spirit Resonance (New): "Battle Spirit" and "Unyielding Will" resonate deeply. When you are in a tough battle or desperate situation, you have a chance to temporarily enter the "Battle Spirit Boiling" state, which slightly increases all attributes (10%-20%).

[3. Spacetime Affinity (Beginner): You have experienced numerous historical echoes of spacetime disruption, greatly enhancing your sensitivity to spacetime fluctuations.]

All three options are extremely valuable.

The Blood Furnace directly enhances fundamental endurance, Battle Soul Resonance improves the ability to unleash maximum burst damage and deal with special enemies, while Space-Time Affinity is a rare trait with unique functions and unknown future development potential.

But as I said before, beware of growth traps. The basic spacetime affinity may seem impressive, but it is actually useless in the present. Who knows when that little bit of potential will be realized!

As for the temporary burst skill, Lu Qingfeng has even less need for it. He never puts himself in danger. If he has the ability to choose to fight back, he might as well become strong enough from the beginning so that he won't fall into such a situation.

Therefore, Lu Qingfeng almost did not hesitate and directly chose the most fundamental advanced version of the Qi and Blood Furnace.

[Qi and Blood Furnace] has been selected!

Those who haven't fought against an army of 100,000 will not understand how important an inexhaustible engine is. Beware of human wave tactics!

[Confirm selection! You have obtained the potential trait "Blood Furnace (Advanced)"!]

A warm current rose from the dantian and quickly spread to the limbs and bones.

Lu Qingfeng could clearly feel that the Feast Talent seemed to emit a satisfied hum, and it was more closely integrated with the more efficient blood and qi system.

No rush, I'll need you in a minute!

Lu Qingfeng took out the nutritional supplements he had prepared in advance from the integrated network backpack and showed them off again. However, unlike the previous buffet where he simply consumed energy, this time it was a targeted medicinal diet for enhancement.

Ah, I miss you! I love you!

I'll go there as soon as I finish the upgrade. This time I'll pick a different place; I can't keep taking advantage of just one customer.

As for now—

Comprehensive network, add points!

After the Feast's enhancement, Lu Qingfeng's current attributes are: Strength 18, Constitution 19.

I happen to have three attribute points, it's hard to guess what I'm going to do with them.

As expected, according to the beginner's guide, reaching an attribute level of 20 is the path to becoming extraordinary. At the same time, Lu Qingfeng also learned more about the Feast and found that the Feast's bonuses would still be effective after reaching level 20.

So, you don't need to do anything with the free attribute points you save up.

[Confirm to consume 1 free attribute point to increase Constitution from 19 to 20?]

"yes!"

A gentle yet powerful energy poured in from the void, permeating every part of the body.

This is yet another absolute sublimation of the essence of life!

[Your constitution attribute has broken through 20! You have entered the realm of "Extraordinary Physique"!]

Your maximum health has been permanently and significantly increased! (120%)

[Resistance to abnormal conditions, toxins, and diseases has been significantly enhanced!]

[Significantly enhanced self-healing ability! Greatly increased stamina recovery speed!]

[The "Iron Body" skill effect has received a hidden bonus!]

[The "Blood Furnace (Advanced)" operating efficiency is increased by an additional 10%!]

"Okay, okay!"

Lu Qingfeng couldn't help but exclaim "good" three times in one breath. After his physique reached the extraordinary level, the sense of solidity it gave him was unparalleled. His recovery ability alone had at least doubled! Not to mention all sorts of miscellaneous and hidden defensive enhancements.

However, now was not the time for a celebration. He then turned his attention to the strength attribute.

"Strength is the foundation of attack. When combined with various martial arts techniques, it can unleash earth-shattering power. Similarly, it is also related to speed, explosiveness, and even the strength of the judgment of some skills."

"At the same time, it's also my primary attribute to some extent; my first and most fundamental ability is strength!"

Without hesitation, he poured in another 1 point of Freedom attribute.

[Confirm to consume 1 free attribute point to increase Strength from 18 to 19?]

"yes!"

Strength attribute increased to 19!

Your physical attack power, burst damage, carrying capacity, and base damage of related skills have received a massive boost!

[The Steel Break/Brutal skill effects have gained a hidden bonus!]

[Greatly increased resistance to effects such as "knockback" and "knock-back"!]

There is only 1 point of free attribute left.

Strength 19, just one step away from the threshold of the extraordinary.

Settling? There's absolutely no need for settling!

With all the hard work and sweat I've put in along the way, with my unparalleled talent, and with my solid foundation!

Break through the network!

[Confirm to consume 1 free attribute point to increase Strength from 19 to 20?]

"confirm!"

boom-!!!

Between heaven and earth, the invisible shackles have been completely broken!

Lu Qingfeng's blood and qi surged uncontrollably, forming a dark red phantom of flames around his body!

Unlike Kunhou, whose physique had broken through to the extraordinary level, his power was even more violent and stronger. The most direct manifestation of this was:

Within a radius of a thousand meters, a spherical area was completely enveloped and melted by Lu Qingfeng's blood and qi, transforming it into a living hell!

This is merely the residual power of the breakthrough, which, when applied to its inherent attributes and combined with brutality, creates a devastating effect.

The sheer power gave Lu Qingfeng unparalleled confidence; even mountains could be shattered with a single punch!

[Strength attribute breakthrough 20! You have entered the realm of extraordinary strength!]

Your physical attack power has received a significant boost! The effects of all skills that rely on strength-based damage have been greatly enhanced!

[Attacks have the "Overwhelming Strength" effect: Damage dealt to targets with lower Strength than yours is increased by 10% (this effect stacks with armor penetration, true damage, etc.)]

[The power of the "Sky Domination" series of martial arts techniques has been increased!]

[When "Heart of Conquest" is triggered, the bonus to Strength is increased!]

"Strength 20, Constitution 20 — Extraordinary Dual Attributes!"

Lu Qingfeng couldn't help but exhale a scorching breath, which forcibly blew away the sea of ​​fire and blood along the way!

[Ding! Key attribute breakthrough beyond the extraordinary threshold detected; deep resonance of life potential!]

You have gained the opportunity to choose an extraordinary attribute bonus!

A new gold notification appeared on the network panel.

"Extraordinary attribute bonuses?"

Almost forgot, breaking through from mortal to extraordinary means breaking through 20 in attributes, which in addition to the basic improvement, you can also gain additional specializations or traits to choose from!

This is life's reward to those who evolve!

As prompted, two separate selection panels unfolded in sequence.

First, let's look at the additional abilities for [Extraordinary Physique]:
