Chapter 99 Ah, becoming stronger too easily is also a kind of trouble.
Chapter 99 Ah, becoming stronger too easily is also a kind of trouble.
[Burning Hand: When used in conjunction with the Blood Burning Technique, it adds the effect of burning enemy energy.]
[Self-Healing Gear: The healing ability provided by the gear is doubled, and the gear also gains a slight self-healing property.]
To be honest, all three features are good. It's just that the current situation is that I'm fighting ten of them all by myself, so I have to regretfully give up on the second feature.
Both the Mana Source and Self-Healing Equipment traits are very powerful. The former is advantageous because it can be stacked into the cumulative recovery without taking up much resources, while the latter is due to my Jade Lotus Magic Treasure, which restores 16% of lost life force and energy. Even if ten people on the other side were to fight me for a lifetime, they still wouldn't be able to outlast me.
However, it would be too much to use the Jade Lotus magic weapon to beat them up.
[Mana Source Trait Selected]
[The technique already provides the ability: Breath Regulation (Energy Restoration)]
Roughly calculated, I currently recover 82 mana points per second, and 4920 mana points per minute.
That's equivalent to recovering half of the mana of a typical peak Qi Refining cultivator every second. And that doesn't even include the recovery ability brought by the Five Elements Mutual Generation effect.
Even if the opponent is a genius with a high mana cap, it would be difficult for them to engage in a war of attrition.
Zhou Zheng smiled and maintained his Tai Chi skills.
The third match was not particularly entertaining; it was a solid and purely attritional battle that showed everyone that the genius's Qi Refining realm was indeed far beyond that of ordinary Qi Refining cultivators.
Furthermore, the peak Qi Refining level of super geniuses far exceeds the upper limit of geniuses.
The formation collapsed on its own, as its magical power was exhausted, leaving only the most basic offensive and defensive buffs. These buffs were practically worthless against Zhou Zheng, as if made of paper.
The Sword Sect genius, gripping the White Rainbow Sword, was numb: "Is this right? How come his mana seems inexhaustible? Didn't you say his mana was only seven times the normal amount? My mana pool is more than twice that of someone of the same rank!"
Fu Xiu: "He has the supernatural ability to regulate his breathing."
The martial arts-loving girl couldn't understand: "Can a meditation technique really restore him this quickly? His mana pool is even stronger than that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator!"
You say you have the Soaring Dragon True Meaning Sword System supernatural power, everyone can understand, who doesn't have a supernatural power?
You say you have Tai Chi supernatural powers, that's normal, having two supernatural powers isn't anything unusual.
It's normal for you to have some special self-healing abilities; you're born with a divine body, something you can't envy.
How come you can regenerate mana as easily as drinking water? Is this reasonable? Is there no law anymore? God, are you being unfair?!
Aren't your four supernatural powers a bit too much?!
The most painful thing in the world is not that others are born with something you don't have in your life, but that someone else has four of the things you could have through your own efforts.
Zhou Zheng's area in front of him and the surrounding area became uneven, with only the section of floor beneath his feet remaining intact: "Your formation is too conservative. You should have used a killing formation to fight me head-on. Maybe you could have suppressed me with burst damage. I've emphasized several times that you should fight with your lives. How can you win if you don't fight with all your might?"
On the judging panel, the bigwigs were completely stunned.
Zhang Xuanqing: "Hiss... Daoist Zhou's magical power is extraordinary. Or is it that the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root's inherent Five Elements mutual generation effect is so peculiar?"
Xiao Mao Sect Leader: "The restorative effects of the synergistic dual spiritual roots are extraordinary. The five elements of the Heavenly Spiritual Roots mutually generate each other to form an internal circulation microcosm. As long as the energy is not exhausted, it will not run out, which is normal. I just didn't expect it to be so powerful."
Xuan Yizi said longingly, "If I had that restorative power, my spiritual energy wouldn't be in disarray."
Zhang Xuanqing chuckled, "Only by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue can you change your fate. Junior brother, I'd consider you lucky if you could even reach the Foundation Establishment realm."
Liu Zhen was surprised: "I've been with him day and night, and only today did I realize how strong his recovery ability is. This kid is really hiding his true strength."
"Huh? What is Master Zhou doing?"
Everyone turned to look at Zhou Zheng.
At this moment, on the dueling platform.
Everyone sat down in a circle, and Zhou Zheng faced the ten geniuses, spreading his arms and releasing his energy-regulating technique: "I'll restore your mana, and we'll try again later. Your fighting like this is too boring for me. You can't even put pressure on me, so it's even harder for me to become stronger."
The body cultivator raised his hand: "Boss Zhou, it's not that I don't have enough magic power, it's that I'm too badly injured!"
Zhou Zheng smiled and had no choice but to switch to using his left hand to release the Qi-regulating divine power for everyone and his right hand to release the Rejuvenation divine power: "Are you satisfied with this now?"
The Rejuvenation Divine Power has a built-in wound-healing effect, and it also helps everyone heal their spiritual injuries.
The martial arts girl, with tears in her eyes, said, "I don't want to play anymore. Five Divine Powers, what's the point of fighting?"
It restores both health and mana, has an extremely long health bar, and is a hexagonal war god.
The Sword Sect genius, with tears in his eyes, exclaimed, "Brother Zhou, your defense is already so high, but how come you also have self-healing? Why are you practicing this? Why do you keep practicing such trashy techniques?"
The Dragon Soaring Sword Technique, the Rejuvenation Technique, and the Breath Regulation Technique are all commonplace items in the cultivation world, the kind that you might not even pick up if you threw them on the ground.
You've encountered a god; you've mastered this trashy cultivation technique to its maximum level. Seriously, Zhou Ge, what are you after? Do you have some kind of weird fetish, or is this trashy technique incredibly attractive to you?
Zhou Zheng asked curiously, "I've only been practicing for a little over a week, and I don't know much about the techniques yet. May I ask, why are you all so obsessed with high-level techniques? Aren't low-level techniques just as effective?"
Silence, utter silence, a deathly silence.
For a moment, everyone was unsure where to begin their complaints.
The Sword Sect genius tried to accept reality, explaining in the most straightforward, unambiguous, and kindergarten-level language: "Practicing addition and subtraction your whole life is less effective than memorizing the multiplication and division tables. Even mastering multiplication and division is not as sophisticated as solving a linear equation in two variables."
The difference between low-level and high-level cultivation techniques is not a simple matter of addition and subtraction, but rather a difference at the dimensional level.
Zhou Zheng: "Oh...so you all cultivate high-level techniques, right?"
The Sword Sect genius nodded: "Yes."
Zhou Zheng: "Then why didn't you guys beat me?"
Sword Sect Genius: "...On another note, if you really practice addition and subtraction your whole life until you're faster than pressing buttons on a calculator, then I really can't help you. Brother Zhou, not everyone is so bored as to master a low-level technique and even develop supernatural abilities. Generally speaking, the probability of developing supernatural abilities with a low-level technique is negligible. High-level techniques are much more likely to produce supernatural abilities."
In general, most people can get results faster by pressing the calculator. If you insist that you can train your mental arithmetic to be faster than a calculator, and you actually are faster than pressing the calculator, then you are not.
What else can we say? We can only accept it, Brother Zhou.
Zhou Zheng spent three minutes restoring everyone to full health, then stood up and said, "Your strategy for forming the formation is correct, but the problem lies in the choice of formation itself; it's too conservative. I hope you can demonstrate the strength to kill me; only then can I feel pleasure."
The Sword Sect genius asked curiously, "Joyful? Brother Zhou, is your rapid cultivation purely due to talent, or something else?"
This is really intriguing. Is the Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root so abnormal that it's unreasonable?
Zhou Zheng thought for a moment and said seriously, "Battle, killing, war. These three things can help me grow quickly, but unfortunately I rarely encounter such situations. In addition, I am a good person who does not kill indiscriminately, so I can only become stronger through four hours of hard training every day."
Martial arts practitioner girl: "Four hours? Hard training?"
The girl who did the music editing looked at the flute in her hand, then looked up and said, "I play the flute for more than four hours every day."
What are you suffering from? You're suffering because of what you're suffering from.
Zhou Zheng stood with his hands behind his back, looked up, and said helplessly, "Alas, you can never understand my troubles. If I were in a chaotic world, I might live a very happy life. But it's a peaceful and prosperous era, and someone like me who becomes stronger through killing can only become stronger through arduous cultivation."
The Sword Sect genius really wanted to curse Zhou Zheng's production workshop, but thinking that he couldn't beat this freak, he could only stand up and change the subject: "Use the killing formation to beat Brother Zhou to death."
This guy is so annoying, Versailles is so outrageous.
The audio editor: "Agreed!"
