Chapter 275: The Dao Protection Technique I Rely on!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Everything was as c.o.c.kroach Green had predicted.

As soon as Lu Ming came into contact with c.o.c.kroach Pavilion, he immediately realized that this would be a protracted battle.

c.o.c.kroach Green possessed a very strong physical strength, much stronger than Lu Ming in his Self-Limitation State. Moreover, it had a wide range of offensive methods, indicating that it had cultivated many different offensive Source Power skills.

Unfortunately, he could not attain Divine Power and did not transform into the Source of Magic Silver Patterns. As such, neither his physical strength nor Source Power skills could affect Lu Ming, who was also in the Ancient Realm and had defensive Silver Patterns.

Colorful Source Power skills landed on Lu Ming’s Body Protective Light, but it remained completely unaffected.

Lu Ming quickly a.s.sessed the situation and came to a conclusion.

“Impossible to penetrate.”

Well, it was not impossible to break through.

Lu Ming, with his Silver Patterns weaker than the average Ancient Realm expert, could allow c.o.c.kroach Pavilion to keep punching him for one or two days before finally breaking through. However, the power of the mystical patterns could regenerate on its own. So, effectively, it meant that it was impossible to break through.

The consumption of Source Power was almost none.

One hour’s worth of Source Power loss could be recovered by Lu Ming in just one second…

In other words, if Lu Ming stood still and let c.o.c.kroach Pavilion hit him, c.o.c.kroach Pavilion could not hurt Lu Ming at all.

Similarly, Lu Ming could not do anything to c.o.c.kroach Pavilion.

When heavy punches landed on c.o.c.kroach Pavilion’s green protective light, accompanied by “thud” sounds, c.o.c.kroach Pavilion remained unfazed while Lu Ming’s wrist became sore from the impact.

All the flashy moves, like Annihilation Explosion and High Speed Fist, were utterly useless.

“The power of the mystical patterns, the power of the natural order…”

“Completely overwhelmingly powerful!”

Lu Ming and c.o.c.kroach Pavilion were undoubtedly the weakest existences in the Ancient Realm.

However, even these weakest Ancient Realm experts were still crus.h.i.+ng existences compared to the strongest in the Source Realm!

After exchanging blows for nearly a minute, Lu Ming and c.o.c.kroach Pavilion separated tacitly.

They stood five meters apart, facing each other. Lu Ming pondered and c.o.c.kroach Pavilion felt helpless.

“Are you still going to fight? In my opinion, you might as well wait for death,”

c.o.c.kroach Pavilion said to Lu Ming.

At the same time, he turned around and looked at Esek and Tang Chongye on the battlefield. As Golden Pattern Ancient Realm experts, they were the ones who determined the direction of this battle.

Lu Ming ignored c.o.c.kroach Pavilion and just contemplated, weighing his options, and he soon spoke.

“Again!”

“It’s the same no matter how many times you go at it. I’ve fought such a battle too many times.” Although c.o.c.kroach Pavilion said that, when it saw Lu Ming approaching once more, it still spread its hands and a.s.sumed a defensive posture.

As the two closed the distance, Lu Ming quickly reached a point where he was an arm’s length away from c.o.c.kroach Pavilion.

He pulled his shoulder, acc.u.mulating his strength.

His fist reached his waist, and using the strength from his waist, Lu Ming was about to deliver a powerful punch.

Seeing this scene, c.o.c.kroach Pavilion did not react. It simply protected its face to prevent itself from being insulted by the other party. In any case, neither of them could break through the other party’s body protective technique…

A turbulent wind of punches swept in, hitting c.o.c.kroach Pavilion in the chest!

The intense pain left c.o.c.kroach Pavilion stunned!

In the next second, c.o.c.kroach Pavilion was sent flying backward, and the silver pattern on its chest could be seen shattering on the spot. Lu Ming’s heavy punch landed on c.o.c.kroach Pavilion’s chest, emitting a heavy collision sound.

The Annihilation Explosion special effect was activated, punching a bowl-sized b.l.o.o.d.y hole in the c.o.c.kroach Pavilion’s chest!

While clutching his chest and retreating rapidly, he stared at Lu Ming and shouted in disbelief, “How is this possible?! How is this possible?!”

“There’s nothing that’s impossible…” Lu Ming mumbled and said, “After all, what I’ve used is a technique specially developed by a super expert who spent a lifetime researching how to counter the power of Silver Patterns!”

It had to be admitted that Flame Heart had left a deep impression on Lu Ming.

Although Lu Ming did not know anything about his life, ident.i.ty, and even his level, Lu Ming could guess that an existence who could develop the Force System must be extremely powerful!

And now, the situation unfolding before his eyes undoubtedly confirmed Lu Ming’s conjecture.

Flame Heart was definitely from the Ancient Realm. Moreover, he was undoubtedly extraordinary among the Ancient Realm experts.

This was because the Force System he had developed was specifically created to restrain the Silver Patterns!

“Silver Patterns are born from Source Power skills and represent the rule patterns that arise when a Source Power skill is cultivated to the Divine Power Realm.”

“This thing vaguely touches upon the essence of Source Power.”

“As for the Force system, it’s a high-level subst.i.tute for the Source Power system… Previously, 1 only thought that the effects of the Force system were limited to enhancing the strength of source power skills and ignoring the opponent’s Body Protective techniques.”

“But that’s just one aspect of it…”

Because the Force System was born out of a desire to create alternative paths to G.o.dhood, it could not be so simple, could it!?

“At its core, the Force System is aimed at the Ancient Realm, which means it’s designed to counter Silver Patterns!”

Even at the Ancient Realm stage, using the Force System in place of Source Power could completely bypa.s.s an opponent’s Silver Patterns, both in attack and defense.This meant that even if Lu Ming did not have offensive silver patterns, he could still use force to disintegrate the protective silver patterns of c.o.c.kroach Pavilion!

“In that case, defense should be the same!”

Just as he was thinking this, a light figure in the distance suddenly appeared in front of him.

It was c.o.c.kroach Pavilion’s brother, c.o.c.kroach Green. It instantly arrived and slapped Lu Ming’s chest!

c.o.c.kroach Green had two silver patterns on its body.

The first was a Body Protective technique.

The second was a Source Realm source power skill: Heart Accelerating Palm!

The killing power of the Heart Accelerating Palm with silver patterns was very lethal when it was born. Moreover, the strength of Lu Ming’s silver patterns was abnormally low. Logically speaking, even if this attack did not directly insta-kill Lu Ming, it would still destroy Lu Ming’s body protective technique on the spot and destroy the power of the silver patterns!

However, under the Force System, the nature of everything changed.

With a “thus,” a powerful force surged over, causing Lu Ming to be sent flying backward, but he quickly stabilized himself. The silver patterns on his chest did not fluctuate, flash, or dim.

“Because I didn’t use the power of silver patterns at all!”

The basis was the Force.

All the silver patterns were completely ineffective before Lu Ming, both in offense and defense!

What was left to compete was just pure combat skills and personal strength!

This meant that even if one was at the Source Realm or even the Spirit Realm without mystical patterns, they could still use the Force system to erase the advantage brought about by the power of the Ancient Realm silver patterns!

He recalled Flame Heart’s teachings.

Lu Ming suddenly realized how valuable the things he had learned from Flame Heart were!

“The Force system is just a skill, not the Dao.”

“Because the force system doesn’t provide any means to strengthen oneself.”

“But for me, who has a system to infinitely increase physical strength, the Force System can become the Dao!”

“This is what I can rely on as 1 enter the Ancient Realm!”

At this moment, Lu Ming heaved a sigh of relief, dispelling the gloom from earlier, and feeling a profound understanding of his own path that he had never experienced before.

“As someone newly entering the Ancient Realm, 1 indeed don’t have an advantage in any aspect compared to other Ancient Realm experts.”

“My mystical patterns are weaker than others, and the physical strength 1 used to rely on also doesn’t have much of an advantage.”

“However, the path of the Force can allow me to bridge the gap between my Silver patterns and those of other ordinary Ancient Realm experts and bring us back to the type of battle I excel in and am most familiar with.”

“Perhaps 1 won’t consider the Force as my future Dao.”

“But at least, at this moment, Force is my protective technique!”

With this newfound understanding, Lu Ming immediately felt a change in his attribute system.

Opening the attribute panel, the description of Force entered his eyes..
