Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Great Leap in Strength
Xu Nian looked at his Pulse Defense breakthrough, a look of excitement appeared on his face.
Unexpectedly, he actually comprehended this Sixth Level Pulse Defense Profound Argumentation.
As a result, his defensive abilities are much stronger than before.
"Kid, your comprehension is impressive; you are the most terrifying person I’ve seen in terms of comprehension. No wonder you could comprehend several Profound Argumentations simultaneously at such a young age, and none of them are weak," Xuanwu praised Xu Nian.
He had long heard Wind Snow praise Xu Nian’s powerful comprehension abilities, but witnessing it firsthand still left him startled.
Generally, even with the same type of Profound Argumentation rock, it takes a genius ten to twenty days just to comprehend the Profound Argumentation within and utilize it.
Xu Nian only took two hours; this comprehension speed is definitely a prodigy among prodigies.
"Senior, you overpraise me. It was just a stroke of luck for the junior," Xu Nian said humbly with a smile.
Xuanwu shook his head and said, "Sometimes being overly modest can dull one’s sharpness. Although your defense has broken through the Sixth Level, it is still not a match for Luangu, who will definitely be waiting for you outside Earth City. I can intervene once, but it’s not good to intervene a second time."
"Junior understands. Although I very much want to settle Luangu, I also know I’m not his match, so I won’t leave the city easily," Xu Nian replied.
A murderous intent was hidden deep in his gaze.
This Luangu had already stirred his desire to kill; he would not be content unless he killed him.
"Good, as long as you understand. Stay in the city for the time being to cultivate. If you lack points, you can borrow from me," Xuanwu said.
"Thank you, Senior!" Xu Nian gratefully replied and then left to head to the Earth Attribute Profound Argumentation Tower.
He aimed to break through the Earth Attribute Gravity Space Profound Argumentation to the Sixth Level; only then could his Black God Power see a greater enhancement.
Xu Nian directly entered the eighth floor of the Profound Argumentation Tower to comprehend the Sixth Level of the Gravity Space Profound Argumentation.
Xu Nian stayed there for five days.
After five days, he ascended to the ninth floor.
Staying on the ninth floor lasted for ten days.
Ultimately, Xu Nian nearly exhausted both his points and Xuanwu’s points.
"Grandpa, why did you lend him all the points you’ve painstakingly accumulated?" Xue Fu complained in slight annoyance as she watched Xu Nian still inside the Profound Argumentation Tower.
These points that grandpa was always reluctant to give her were now spent by Xu Nian, making it hard for her not to feel jealous.
"Girl, you don’t understand. Xu Nian has great potential and his future achievements will undoubtedly be high; it’s worth forging an alliance with him. These points mean nothing if he remembers our kindness; what we gain will far exceed what we’ve given," Xuanwu replied with a smile.
"You really think so highly of him, even though he’s a freakish talent? There are many geniuses in the Cultivation World; do you really think he could place in the Immortal Order Competition?" Xue Fu replied disdainfully.
"Yes, I believe he can achieve a rank. Despite his current strength being relatively weak among those talents, your grandpa has a knack for judging people. With his rate of improvement, he can definitely place in the Immortal Order Competition," Xuanwu said.
"Humph, I don’t care. Doesn’t he have eighty-five million points? He has to repay every single point," Xue Fu huffed coldly.
Xuanwu felt helpless, convinced he had to curb his granddaughter’s temper; otherwise, she’d suffer greatly in the future.
At that moment, Xu Nian walked out of the Profound Argumentation Tower.
Xu Nian’s demeanor appeared incredibly substantial, with calm and deep eyes that brought peace to anyone who glanced at him.
"Not bad, seems you’ve made considerable progress over these fifteen days. Tell me, what improvements have you made?" Xuanwu asked with a smile.
Seeing Xuanwu, Xu Nian also smiled: "Indeed, there’s been some progress, but a few areas are still unclear. I’ll hope for Senior’s guidance then."
"Humph, Meteor! You spent so many of my grandpa’s points just for a little progress? Isn’t that too wasteful? Had those points been given to me, I could have at least leveled up two Profound Argumentations," Xue Fu scorned.
Xu Nian chuckled helplessly; Xue Fu’s temperament was indeed abrasive.
"I do owe Senior’s points some service, but I promise I will repay every bit," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Tch!" Xue Fu huffed disdainfully.
"Meteor, pay no mind to him; these points are inconsequential. Let’s go to the martial arts arena; show me your comprehension over these half months," Xuanwu said with a smile.
Xu Nian nodded and followed Xuanwu to the martial arts arena.
"Come, don’t hold back!" Xuanwu remarked.
"Then the junior won’t stand on ceremony," Xu Nian smiled quickly, and his gaze became sharp.
"Tch, don’t cry when my grandpa defeats you," Xue Fu taunted from the side.
In his view, even if Xu Nian made progress, he wasn’t a match for grandpa.
His grandpa’s defense couldn’t be broken by Luangu.
Xuanwu stood with his hands behind his back, showing the posture of a true expert.
"Buzz!"
A wave of earthy yellow energy surged, and the Sixth Level Earth Defense Profound Argumentation poured out from him, forming eighteen layers of Pulse Defense.
Xu Nian smiled slightly at the sight, clenching his fist as a powerful Earth Attribute Profound Argumentation attached itself to his fist.
"Oh, Sixth Level Earth Attribute Gravity Space Profound Argumentation. It seems you indeed broke through to the Sixth Level," Xuanwu remarked in surprise, though it wasn’t entirely unexpected.
Entering the ninth floor likely meant comprehending the Sixth Level Profound Argumentation.
"Be careful, Senior!"
At that moment, Xu Nian’s figure darted over, punching forward.
The punch’s momentum was not fierce, and the aura was far from awe-inspiring.
However, as Xu Nian’s punch collided with Xuanwu’s Pulse Defense, Xuanwu’s expression changed.
Xu Nian’s fist struck the Pulse Defense, shattering the eighteen layers in an instant, a terrifying force exploded directly at Xuanwu’s abdomen.
Xuanwu was flung backward, retreating a hundred feet before finally stabilizing.
He was bewildered as he looked at Xu Nian, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"What kind of technique is this? Why does the Sixth Level Attribute have such immense power?" Xuanwu asked in shock.
Xue Fu was equally stunned, displaying a clearly surprised expression.
Even though his grandpa only used the Sixth Level Profound Argumentation for defense, Xu Nian executed the same Sixth Level.
How could someone break grandpa’s defense using an equivalent level of Profound Argumentation?
Xu Nian saw this scene and smiled: "I call this move Heavy Penetration!"
"Collapse?" Xuanwu displayed a puzzled expression.
Xu Nian chuckled: "Based on the foundation of Heavy Bomb, I’ve delved deeper into the application of gravitational and repulsive forces within Gravity Space. I made these forces collide, producing an even more violent power, which I call Collapse."
"Collapse!" Xuanwu was surprised.
This Meteor’s Collapse technique likely approached the Seventh Level Profound Argumentation.
"Not bad, for progress in fifteen days, it’s indeed rapid!" Xuanwu complimented.
Xue Fu was equally surprised; Xu Nian’s Collapse felt terrifying to her.
"Senior, I’ve also comprehended the Seventh Level Profound Argumentation!" Xu Nian said with a smile.
"What?" Xuanwu was shocked.
He almost thought he heard wrong.
Xue Fu was also dumbfounded; he comprehended the Seventh Level?
No joke, right?
