Swallowed Star: Drawing Talents

"Huh!"

On the exchange list, Yang Wu quickly skimmed over a technique called 'Lightning Flash,' his gaze suddenly drawn to a秘籍 (mì jí, secret manual) named 'Phoenix Sky Strike.'

For some reason, just those four words stirred a feeling within him.

"Master, I'll take this one."

Without much hesitation, Yang Wu directly selected the secret manual named Phoenix Sky Strike.

"This one? Alright!"

Hong was somewhat surprised, and then, to Yang Wu's even greater astonishment, he retrieved a rusty metal sheet from the wall of the fighter jet's cabin.

"This secret manual is quite special. I discovered it in an ancient ruin."

Hong handed the rusty metal sheet directly to Yang Wu, solemnly instructing, "Don't underestimate this rusty metal sheet. Even SS-grade weapons can't damage it in the slightest."

"Hmm?"

Yang Wu carefully took the rusty metal sheet. Hong's words made him even more interested in the metal fragment.

The sharpness of SS-grade weapons is already comparable to first-tier Origin Force weapons.

"After taking it out of the ruins, no matter what method I used, I couldn't examine it, let alone cultivate it."

"I originally thought it was due to the nature of Origin Energy, but I later had others try it as well, but unfortunately, no one could elicit a response..."

"Useless to keep, but a pity to discard..."

Hong's tone was tinged with reminiscence. This metal fragment was obtained from an ancient civilization ruin he accidentally entered during the Great Nirvana period.

Unfortunately, that ancient civilization ruin completely collapsed after he left, and no trace of its existence could be found again.

"In that case, this azure blue Qiankun-class intelligent fighter jet, I'll prepare it in a few days and send it to you as well."

Seeing the treasure Yang Wu had chosen, Hong still felt that he had gotten a great bargain, so he selected an azure blue Qiankun-class intelligent fighter jet from the intelligent fighter jets.

And sent it to Yang Wu along with it!

...

Mingyue District, Villa No. 198.

In the quiet room on the second floor, Yang Wu, having just returned home, couldn't wait to take out the metal sheet, intending to study it first and find the reason for the throbbing in his heart.

"What exactly is this thing?"

Yang Wu rubbed the rust on the metal sheet in his hand. Besides its hard material and the inability to remove the rust.

This metal fragment was basically no different from an ordinary piece of iron in appearance.

Cutting with a knife, dripping blood, electric shock...

An hour passed, and Yang Wu used all the methods he could think of, but after turning it over and over, he couldn't figure out anything.

Helpless, he could only put it away and first take stock of the other items.

The first thing he took out was a dark red spear.

[Penetrating Rainbow Spear]: A third-tier low-grade Origin Force weapon, with a purplish-black spearhead and a dark red shaft. In the middle of the dark red shaft, in the middle of the purplish-black spearhead, two words are engraved in unknown characters—

"Penetrating Rainbow!"

Translated into Chinese, it's '贯虹' (guàn hóng), penetrating rainbow. These two simple and rounded characters, combined with the heavy spear, seemed to bring a sense of vastness.

Origin Force weapons are divided into tiers one to five.

A third-tier Origin Force weapon can unleash the maximum combat power of a Universe-level martial artist, and its value is extremely high. If sold in the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield, it would be worth at least billions of Black Dragon coins.

And most importantly, at least before reaching the Star level, he wouldn't need to consider replacing his weapon.

"Let's take a look at this 'Falling Sun' secret technique."

Yang Wu took out a red secret manual from the backpack formed by the Black God Suit, which was the 'Falling Sun' obtained in the ancient civilization ruins.

Yang Wu opened the first page.

Hmm...

The first page of the secret manual simply described the origin of the 'Falling Sun' secret technique. The Falling Sun secret technique was just the basic version, and above it, there was an advanced version of the secret technique.

In addition, there was a warning, warning the Meteor Star members who practiced the secret technique not to pass the secret technique to the outside world without authorization, otherwise...

Death without pardon!

Yang Wu directly turned to the second page.

"Falling Sun has a total of three levels."

"First level, the body's power exertion amplitude must reach 16 to cultivate."

"Second level, the body's power exertion amplitude must reach 28 to cultivate."

"Third level, it is necessary to reach the Universe level, possess one's own domain, and the body's power exertion amplitude must reach 45 to cultivate."

Yang Wu's current body power exertion amplitude is 18, so he can only cultivate the first level of the Falling Sun secret technique.

According to the description in the secret manual, after cultivating the first level of Falling Sun, the attack power can be increased to about three times the original.

Although it wasn't the amplitude secret technique he imagined, Yang Wu couldn't help but feel excited.

This is the benefit of having a heritage. The successful experience of countless generations of predecessors is enough to save future generations a lot of ineffective cultivation time.

The basic strength range of a first-tier Planet-level martial artist is 2 million to 4 million kilograms, and the power exertion amplitude is generally 4 times.

Yang Wu is a ninth-level Apprentice, with a basic strength of 500,000 kilograms. Under 18 times the power exertion amplitude, his attack power can reach 9 million kilograms.

With the addition of the Falling Sun secret technique, his full burst can reach 27 million kilograms.

On Earth, most human Planet-levels are only first-tier Planet-level, a few are second-tier Planet-level, and one is a third-tier Planet-level.

And two cheaters, but besides Hong and Lei Shen, Yang Wu is not afraid of anyone now.

Of course, combat power is not calculated like this. Just the fact that Planet-level martial artists can fly makes it difficult for Yang Wu to hit them.

"I still have to advance to the Planet level!"

Yang Wu put down the 'Falling Sun' secret manual in his hand. He didn't rush to cultivate it, but suppressed the restlessness in his heart.

Inside the ruins base, the bald crystal man left a copy of the 'Planet-level Breakthrough Essentials' in his auxiliary optical brain.

"Now, throughout the entire Earth, except for Babata's place, there is no other place where effective methods to break through to the Planet level can be found."

Yang Wu was full of curiosity and quickly found the essentials on the auxiliary optical brain, opened it and read it carefully.

In the vast universe, countless lives are only Apprentice level. Crossing from Apprentice level to Planet level is the most important part of the life leap process.

Once this hurdle is crossed, one officially goes from Apprentice level to Planet level, becoming a gene martial artist and spiritual master truly recognized in the universe.

At the Apprentice level, in some powerful countries in the universe, one doesn't even have the qualifications to apply to become an ordinary citizen.

Even those slave traders are too lazy to install biological chips for Apprentices. Installing biological chips for these Apprentices, who are a dime a dozen in the universe.

Is a complete waste of money!

Yang Wu's consciousness and spirit are sufficient, and his physical fitness has also reached the peak of the ninth level of Apprentice.

For someone like him who meets all the conditions, it is possible to break through and become a first-tier Planet-level martial artist at any time.

The Planet-level Breakthrough Essentials contain nine movements similar to guiding exercises.

These nine guiding movements need to be completed all at once. Once there is a pause in the middle, one has to start all over again.

Once these nine movements are completed, one can take advantage of the momentum to break through to the Planet level.
