Chapter 1019: Mastered Tendon Changing Classic

Ever since Phantasmal Shadow’s plan failed and the situation fell entirely into Dream Clouds’ control, causing everything to move according to Dream Clouds’ plan, Happy used the shortest time to come up with the worst possible scenario and made arrangements for it.

He used the promise he had Phantasmal Shadow make with him in the past and seized the rights to utilize her sect prison at her headquarters for half a month so that he could use that time to focus on making his Tendon Changing Classic reach Grandmaster Realm. After Dream Clouds showed her astonishing trump card, he had already given up on the thought of weakening Class One Hall, or rather, it should be said that he had decided to let One Emperor be in charge of that task, since he was already at it.

After all, the strength and trump card Class One Hall displayed was just too strong. At that moment, a person’s own strength already had a hard time covering up the distance between himself and herself and Class One Hall.

Wind Assault Tower was at an absolute disadvantage.

At that moment, if Wind Assault Tower fought in a war against Class One Hall for the purpose of damaging each other, Wind Assault Tower would not win.

Even though this news was not good, Happy had to admit to it.

If Dream Clouds wanted to, Class One Hall could absolutely use everything they had during the month and completely ruin Wind Assault Tower.

The power of twelve major sects when gathered together was enough to surpass a giant. Besides, Class One Hall still had Blood Alliance helping them.

Wasting resources in a war against them was not practical.

But fortunately, as of right now, Dream Clouds did not dare to make any reckless moves either, because when Evil Emperor entered the Chinese server, he would still need Class One Hall to help him.

If they were engaged in a fight to wear each other down, Wind Assault Tower would be the first to not last, but the factions of power in the Chinese server were complicated, and there were plenty of powerful sects here. If Class One Hall was damaged to the core because of it, they might not be able to control the Chinese server and pave the way for Wild Wolves. In other words, they might not be able to control the Chinese server after the war against Wind Assault Tower.

Happy noticed this keenly, and he seized the chance for the remaining half a month before Evil Emperor arrived to train.

As for why he chose Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters?

It was because Wind Assault Tower had the most Myth Realm criminals. They had three Myth Realm elites locked up in their headquarters, and even though they were only at the beginning stage of Myth Realm, as long as Happy removed all of his equipment, they were as threatening as Empress Yin herself.

Happy was perhaps the only person who would dare to remove all his equipment when he fought against a Myth Realm elite.

However, the more powerful an attack was, the more damage it would cause to his body, and it could cause even greater stimulation to Tendon Changing Classic, further bringing out its potential and improving it.

Happy had gained quite the increase in level when he was at Mantuo Villa, and that had happened within a short period of time.

Hence, Happy wanted to use the Myth Realm elites in Wind Assault Tower’s sect prison to force his Tendon Changing Classic to Grandmaster Realm.

He also lied to Wandering Know-it-all.

What truly caused his confidence to increase when it came to fighting against Evil Emperor was not Tendon Changing Classic.

Even though Tendon Changing Classic could increase quite a lot of his defense and recovery ability as well as further strengthen its properties once Happy mastered it, Marrow Cleansing Classic, which Happy still could not train, was his real leverage!

As those Myth Realm criminals continued attacking him, his Tendon Changing Classic was basically circulating rapidly at full capacity. Each of their palm strikes could bring a very obvious increase to his Tendon Changing Classic.

A few hours later, Happy withstood more than two thousand palm strikes.

His Tendon Changing Classic had jumped to Level 99. He was just one level away from Grandmaster Realm.

“As expected of Wind Assault Tower. With Myth Realm elites around, I can indeed train at a much faster speed, and it’s much more relaxing and safe than the world outside.”

Before Happy logged out, he could not help but sigh in amazement about this.

Previously, Wandering Know-it-all had wondered whether he could send his Tendon Changing Classic to Grandmaster Realm within half a month, but he would never know that with the dual stimulation provided from Grieving Needle and by removing his equipment, normal Myth Realm criminals would basically possess the power of a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm when they sparred with him. It was highly probable that by tomorrow, his Tendon Changing Classic would reach Grandmaster Realm, and his Affinity would metamorphosize.

Then, he would be able to practice Marrow Cleansing Classic!

That was another peerless Shaolin Classic! It was the ultimate technique which had helped Mad Monk reach his current strength, One with the World!

*****

“Ding!

“Tendon Changing Classic has reached Grandmaster Realm!

“Increase all attributes by 20!

“Increase qi points by 50!

“Periosteum has been fully formed. Increase defense by 1,000! With your periosteum protecting you, you can automatically reduce all damage by 10%!

“Tendon Changing Classic has fully widened your meridian system. Your meridian system can now contain a huge increase in qi. Increase true qi circulation speed by 30%. Increase attack speed by 20%.”

On the second day when he fully mastered this divine art, Happy entered a profound state with the series of system notifications. His expression also became solemn.

The Myth Realm elites could not help but stop attacking! They stared at Happy in shock as thick waves of true origin surged out from his body. They did not even blink.

Happy had already forgotten about everything around him at that moment.

He could not help but sit down.

His hands fell naturally on his knees, and at the same time thick waves of true origin flowed on his skin, faint crystalline light shone on him.

“This is...”

The Myth Realm criminal in front of Happy was not the only who gradually looked shocked. Even the other two Myth Realm criminals nearby stood up. They stared at Happy, and their expressions changed.

His true qi gained a wispy quality.

But as time passed, that crystalline spark on Happy seemed to become even more prominent, and it was as if Happy had become transparent. Each of his pores released an astonishing presence as well as waves of true origin.

It went from his arms to his face.

Happy’s entire body was going through a change.

His entire body released waves of true origin, but it was also locked by an invisible power so that it was always three feet within himself. It would not spread any further from that, and it was a truly amazing sight.

Happy did not seem to have noticed anything around him.

The true origin around him gradually gained a thick quality, as if an astonishing pressure was flowing all around him, causing others to be unable to easily get close to him.

Very soon, the true origin around Happy became visible.

The Myth Realm criminal was subconsciously forced back a few steps. As he stared at the true origin gradually becoming clearer around Happy, he mumbled, “Could this be...?”

Before his voice faded away, the waves of true origin surrounding Happy suddenly spread out to form a picture.

It was like a lotus that quietly bloomed above Happy, and it spun in a wispy and profound manner.

The Myth Realm criminals instantly had widened their eyes.

Three gasps could be heard in the quiet prison.

Three pairs of eyes were gathered on the second lotus that bloomed outside Happy.

It had not ended yet.

When the second lotus was clearly formed next to the first lotus, soon, the third lotus appeared around Happy.

The Myth Realm martial artist standing in front of Happy was already stunned. He just kept mumbling, “No wonder... It’s no wonder why he can withstand so many hits from me...

“He has three flowers gathering above his head. Three flowers! This is the sign that his eight extra meridians have cleared.

“Three flowers, above his head!”

Right when he finished speaking, the last lotus bloomed above Happy, and all three lotuses formed a brilliant triangle above him.

Those three lotuses caused Happy to look like a deity.

However, this phenomenon did not last long.

Slap!

As the sound of something shattering rose, the three lotuses vanished like a bubble. The anomalies that surrounded Happy also instantly disappeared.

Happy sucked in a deep breath.

The true origin that surrounded him instantly surged back into his body like a fading tide.

His breathing also instantly became louder and longer.

Happy quietly opened his eyes.

At the moment the Myth Realm criminal met Happy’s eyes, he felt as his eyes had been burned by divine light, but it soon vanished.

His essence was restrained within himself.

Happy’s eyes returned to normal.

The crystalline light that shone through his entire body also vanished when his true origin returned to his body. He seemed to have returned to a normal state.

Happy looked down and sensed the power in his hands.

It was a strange feeling.

Even when his Divine Nine Yang Skill reached Grandmaster Realm, he never had such a profound feeling.

It was as if the world had instantly become incredibly clear. His eyes and ears could see and hear clearly. Happy could sense two other pairs of eyes fixed on him not far away. He could even hear their rapid, excited heartbeats.

He curled his fist.

His qi instantly gathered together before vanishing.

After repeating this for a few times, joy appeared on Happy’s face.

‘Once all the eight extra meridians have been cleared, my attack speed has distinctly increased. The thickness of my qi is also greater than before, and my damage should be higher now. This is great!’

With that thought, Happy quietly stood up straight.

Not a single sound was made during the entire process. It was as if the air around the area had been locked down and controlled by the true origin outside his body.

‘An aura?’

Happy quirked his eyebrows a little, and the delight in his eyes grew stronger.

In the next second, an astonishing true origin swiftly surrounded his whole body, and it filled up the entire area in thick waves.

Happy casually sensed the true origin he released, and when he sensed the speed in which his true qi depleted, he quickly came to understand certain things.

‘I see, so it’s a defensive aura.’

Happy casually delivered a remote palm strike.

Slap!

A concave appeared on the wall not too far away.

Not a single sound was heard during the entire process. It was as if an afterimage had just suddenly appeared in the air.

It instantly appeared before it disappeared just as quickly! The speed was so fast that it was astonishing.

‘When my true qi is at the same wavelength as my true origin, it won’t affect my attack speed and damage. I wonder what effect it will have against others.’

Happy turned his head around and cast a glance at the Myth Realm criminal across him. “Attack me thrice at full force.”

At that moment, there was no longer a single bit of contempt in the Myth Realm criminal’s eyes. When he heard those words, he sucked in a deep breath with a solemn expression, and he even made the motion to show that he was circulating his qi.

“Ha!”

When the Myth Realm martial artist attacked, Happy immediately sensed that the situation was vastly different from before.

After all, he had already received more than three thousand attacks from these three Myth Realm martial artists. Their strength and speed was already deeply embedded in Happy’s mind.

But when this Myth Realm martial artist attacked this time, Happy instinctively had this thought pop up in his mind.

‘How slow! His strength is of no cause for fear.’

Happy could practically capture his attack trajectory right before he attacked, and he could also generally gauge the strength in his attack.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He was struck three times.

Then, a strange scene appeared.

When the first palm strike cut into the aura that was spread three feet around him, the power in that palm strike seemed to have been invaded by something, and it quickly became much weaker. Once it landed on him, Happy could not feel the same sharp, peerless, and violent impact from before.

His shoulder only swayed a little before he quickly regained his posture.

The two palm strikes later on also had much of their damage reduced.

Happy only staggered a little before he stopped. He scowled and stared at the Myth Realm martial artist across him in puzzlement.

“I asked you to attack me at full force.”

The Myth Realm martial artist said nothing. He was dumbfounded for a second before he felt so ashamed that he wanted to die.

‘I swear by the gods that I have definitely used my full power just now!’
