CH 88

No sound emerged from where it landed. The Master zombie was still standing in the same spot, but its right hand had raised at some point.

Its palm was in a natural state, gently blocking the side of its face.

But it was this casual gesture that was akin to “rasing one’s had to speak in class” that blocked Lu Sheng’s powerful kick.

Lu Sheng’s eyes were filled with shock.

He felt as if his leg had kicked an incomparably thick cushion, and all of his strength had been absorbed and dissolved completely.

The enormous strength contained in his leg fell into the palm of the zombie at the Master level, but it was like a clay ox entering the sea, without the slightest ripple.

Lu Sheng jumped back immediately, his expressions morose.

“Although I didn’t use all my strength in that kick, I still used six times the strength of a star and the bonus of a Perfection Realm Footwork. My CPI should be above 100,000, but I couldn’t even move one of its fingers. Master zombies are indeed terrifying!”

Moreover, this was only a Master who only had battle instincts left. If it was a true Master Martial Artist … Someone like that would have been unimaginably strong.

After this test, Lu Sheng no longer held back.

Ten times the power of a star, Perfection Realm Fist Technique, Breath of Flames …

Other than not using the Blood Qi boost from the Divine Illumination Meditation Scripture, he had used almost all of his strength.

But no matter what kind of attack he made, the zombie in front of him could always block it easily.

Lu Sheng faintly had an illusion. Like what he was facing now was not an ordinary person who was only about 1.7 meters tall.

Instead, it was a wall, a mountain.

It could not be broken, and it could not be overcome.

“Huff, huff …”

Lu Sheng stood dozens of meters away from the Master zombie, breathing heavily with a somewhat sombre expression.

“There is no way to defeat it at all, and I can’t even hurt it …” Lu Sheng felt that there seemed to be an invisible membrane outside the body of the zombie.

All of his attacks hit this membrane, and 99% of his strength was directly negated.

As a result, although Lu Sheng’s combat power was now as high as hundreds of thousands, he couldn’t even make the zombie take a step back.

“This should be …” Lu Sheng took a deep breath and slowly spat out a word. “Master Force Field!”

“It is rumoured that Masters have invisible force fields that even bullets can’t penetrate. After being shot into the force field, it will be directly stopped and blocked, completely turning into useless scrap iron. Seeing it today, it really lives up to its reputation …”

“This is the weak force field left outside the body of the dead Master. If it was a real Master at his peak, I probably wouldn’t even be able to get close to him, let alone attack him …”

The strength of the Master Force Field was beyond Lu Sheng’s expectations, and he was almost at his wit’s end.

Now he understood why there was only one level difference between a Level 6 and Level 7 Martial Artists, but the difference in status was like heaven and earth. Level 7 could be called a Master, but level six could only be a Martial Artist.

It was because the gap between the two was too big. It was a qualitative difference, a difference in their being.

Reaching Level 7 Master realm could almost be regarded as a evolution in the life form.

“However, there is still good news. This zombie at the Master level didn’t seem to regard me as an opponent at all, and it only passively resisted my attacks, never taking the initiative to attack. Otherwise, I would have been killed on the spot.”

Lu Sheng now felt as if he had become a noob player that had mistakenly entered a high-level monster map.

In the face of the huge level gap, even if the monsters in the high-level map stood still and let him attack, he couldn’t break the other party’s defence.

“I can’t even forcibly deduct -1, -1 …” Lu Sheng was a little helpless. (*TL: referring to how a noob player cannot cause damage to a high level monster.)

“No, it seems to be losing something!”

Lu Sheng tried a few more times and unexpectedly found that the invisible force field outside the body of the zombie seemed to have weakened a little.

Although it was very little, only a little, almost negligible. But it was definitely weakened.

Lu Sheng had attacked nearly a thousand times, and he already knew the defensive ability of the zombie like the back of his hand.

“If I grind it down bit by bit, I might have a chance, but I’m afraid that when I grind it down below a point, it will go berserk all of a sudden …

“And this is too slow, I estimate that I’ll have to attack a million times to wear down its force field …”

Lu Sheng already felt like he was on the brink of exhausting his stamina.

This was also because he had been using Natural Breathing to recover, if it were any other Level 3 Martial Artist, who knows how many times they would have collapsed from exhaustion.

“Maybe I should retreat first. I can deal with this old bone after I’m strong enough?” Lu Sheng had the intention to retreat. But he was also a little unwilling.

A Level 6 zombies were almost useless to him in actual combat training, after his spiritual power reached Level 3, hunting zombies below Level 6 was like cutting grass, sweeping through a large area …

Wait!

Lu Sheng suddenly thought of something.

Spiritual power!

Yes, spiritual power attack.

He had never tried to use spiritual strength to attack.

“I haven’t practised the real combat skills of a Spiritual Master, so I’ve always used spiritual power as an auxiliary means, to fuel the Divine Illumination Meditation Scripture to increase my vitality. I almost forgot that I’m still a Level 3 Spiritual Master.

“Compared to my strength in martial arts, I’m more proficient in using my spiritual strength!”

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng suddenly felt his vision clearing up in front of him. Although Lu Sheng hadn’t learned the corresponding spiritual power combat skills, his spiritual power was strong enough.

It was like Lu Sheng holding a piece of iron in his hand, although he hadn’t learned how to forge this piece of iron into a sword to cut people, but when he swung the iron out, the power generated was still quite impressive.

“Let’s try it!”

Lu Sheng’s eyes lit up, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible.

“There’s another advantage to using spiritual power to attack. My spiritual power is replenished very quickly after consumption, because there are zombies everywhere, as long as I absorb some memories and use Crystal Contemplation to purify it, it will be fine. It’s much faster than recovering physical strength.”

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng immediately condensed his spiritual power into a ball, and fiercely hit the zombie in front of him.

Just like physical attacks, the moment the spiritual power touched the zombies, it was like touching an invisible barrier.

The spiritual power hit the barrier and disappeared. But at the same time, the invisible barrier was also partially consumed.

“The effect is so much better than physical attacks!” Lu Sheng was surprised and happy, and quickly understood after thinking about it.

“A Master Force Field is the external manifestation of a Master’s Will, and a Master’s Will is basically a Master’s spiritual strength. Using spiritual power to consume spiritual power is naturally feasible. Sigh, I’m too stupid, I should have thought of this.”

Lu Sheng didn’t delay any longer, and quickly manipulated his spiritual power to attack the zombie’s force field again and again.

The zombie’s force field was quickly consumed, and the invisible barrier was quickly weakening and thinning at a speed that Lu Sheng’s spiritual power could perceive.

Lu Sheng’s spiritual power was exhausted twice in the process, but fortunately, he had harvested a lot of ordinary zombies’ memories before.

Crystal Contemplation was slightly activated, and a steady stream of spiritual power emerged from it.

In the process, Lu Sheng’s martial arts improved again. More than 80% of his martial arts skills broke through a bottleneck, which was to say, they reached the Perfection Realm.

This was a terrifying improvement for Lu Sheng’s comprehensive combat ability.

But Lu Sheng didn’t have time to care about this now, and all his attention was on the zombie in front of him.

He was really looking forward to it.

What kind of martial arts treasures would there be in the memories of this Master zombie?!

Boom!
