Cosmic Trading System

That night, Lin Yun focused on consolidating his new phase.

In the morning, Lin Yun, who was meditating in the yard, suddenly opened his eyes; a flash of brilliant sparkle shot through his pupils.

Even though he spent the whole night circulating internal energy and didn't rest, it was similar to light sleep. Hence, his spirit was extremely vibrant, with no trace of fatigue.

Whoosh—

Lin Yun slowly rose to his feet and suddenly threw a punch. Then he took a step and a second punch was launched.

He began practicing his martial techniques.

The more he punched and kicked, the faster Lin Yun became.

Between strikes, his breath surged, full of power and speed, gradually generating a dragon's roar and tiger's howl-like sound throughout the yard.

Luckily, the courtyard Lin Yun chose was secluded; otherwise, there would likely have been some curious onlookers.

Half an hour later, Lin Yun's style began to change.

Sometimes strong, sometimes weak, sometimes fast, sometimes slow; Lin Yun had initially been testing the extreme data of his physical quality. Now, he was seriously studying how to best utilize his current physical power.

Strong, but not too strong, and not always strong.

There was weakness in strength, so one could increase the strength when needed, without falling into exhaustion.

Fast, the same principle held, not too fast, not always fast.

In speed there was slowness, which allowed room for variation when launching power, so that one could be even faster when needed instead of losing control after a single punch.

True and false intertwined, making it impossible for the opponent to defend effectively.

After another hour, Lin Yun finally stopped.

However, that did not stop him from becoming more familiar with his current strength. He looked up at Lin Yi, who was standing nearby, and said, "Lin Yi, suppress your strength to the late stage of Dark Strength. Let's spar."

"Okay." Lin Yi nodded and leaped into the field.

"Bang—bang—bang—"

They quickly clashed.

In the beginning, Lin Yun did not go full force in order to accustom himself to his power, making him roughly on par with Lin Yi.

Gradually, Lin Yun elevated his strength and speed, and Lin Yi began to fall behind.

"Lin Yi, boost your strength to the peak of Dark Strength!"

Twenty minutes later, Lin Yun gave a slight smile and said.

At this point, he was confident that a martial artist in the late stage of Dark Strength was no match for him anymore.

This was as expected. Even though he had only broken through from the peak of Mingjin to the initial stage of Dark Strength, the transition from Mingjin to Dark Strength marked a qualitative upgrade, hence his strength increased significantly.

Previously, a typical mid-term Dark Strength expert wouldn't have been able to compete with him. Now, after such a considerable upgrade, a typical Dark Strength mid-term realm practitioner should also not be his match.

How much could one's strength improve while transitioning from the mid to late stage of Dark Strength?

"Yes."

Lin Yi nodded and immediately escalated his power to the peak of Dark Strength.

He was a robot, extremely precise in controlling various data. If he claimed to have reached the peak of Dark Strength, it definitely wouldn't be far off.

Lin Yun and Lin Yi tangled once again.

This time, they fought for a total of half an hour before Lin Yun halted the battle.

At this moment, he could confirm his current strength. He was able to confront practitioners at the peak of Dark Strength without falling behind.

Of course, this only applied to average peak Dark Strength fighters. He couldn't guarantee the same against those exceptionally strong practitioners at the Dark Strength peak.

There were quite a few of these types of martial artists.

After all, above the Dark Strength peak was Huajin. Many martial artists stayed stuck at this threshold their entire lives.

Huajin, that was the realm of a grandmaster. Without a strong will, talent, and perception of martial arts, it would be difficult to break through to that level.

Through their many years of consistent research of various martial arts techniques, their strength could not be compared to the average martial artist at the peak of Dark Strength.

However, Lin Yun was very pleased with his current progress.

"If I manage to elevate my martial arts realm to the mid-term of Dark Strength, I should be able to compete with those powerful individuals at the peak of Dark Strength..."

A sharp light flashed in Lin Yun's eyes as he pondered this.

Progressing from the initial stage of Dark Strength to the mid-term stage would not greatly enhance his strength. It certainly wouldn't allow him to rival a Grandmaster of Huajin. Lin Yun had always understood this, he wasn't that ambitious.

"Or, if I learn more Intermediate Level martial art techniques and Grand Mastery Level martial arts, I could also compete with those powerful characters at the peak of Dark Strength…"

Lin Yun considered this as well.

Earlier, his martial arts realm at the peak of Mingjin enabled him to fight, even defeat, average mid-term stage Dark Strength warriors because he had learned many beginner level martial art techniques.

With over a hundred Beginner Level martial art techniques and several Intermediate Level techniques including a Grand Mastery technique, he had become proficient in various skills such as fist, leg and step techniques, and hidden weapons. Some of these techniques worked together to give him great strength, making it easier for him to step up to the next level.

However, he had already reached the initial stage of Dark Strength. His opponents were now peak Dark Strength warriors. Those beginner level martial art techniques were naturally less useful. Only the Intermediate and Grand Mastery Level techniques could significantly boost his strength.

"But, I've just reached the initial stage of Dark Strength. Neither stepping up to the mid-term stage of Dark Strength nor learning additional intermediate and grand mastery level martial arts can be achieved in a short time…"

Soon, Lin Yun shook his head.

Indeed, if he was willing to use a certain amount of Spirit Crystals, he could instantly upgrade to the mid-term of Dark Strength.

However, since he chose the most difficult path in martial arts, he wouldn't compromise his foundation and do such a thing.

So, the only option left was to upgrade his martial techniques.

But this required even more Spirit Crystals, no small amount by any means.

If he wanted to upgrade a beginner-level technique to intermediate-level without figuring it out himself, he would need about a hundred Spirit Crystals.

If he upgraded several or even dozens of techniques, the cost would be substantial.

If he wanted to upgrade an intermediate-level technique to Grand Mastery Level, it would be even more horrifying. Just one technique would require about a thousand Spirit Crystals.

Speaking of which, considering the time he spent yesterday afternoon and then the whole night, the number of Spirit Crystals on his Cosmic Trading System had increased quite a bit and had reached a thousand.

However, this was only enough to upgrade one intermediate-level technique to Grand Mastery Level.

He would rather use these Spirit Crystals to purchase a robot with the strength of the initial stage of Huajin.

After all, even if he upgraded one intermediate-level technique to Grand Mastery Level, his power would still be unable to compete with someone at the early stage of Huajin.

In that case, he would have an additional strong helper to utilize.

Besides, if Lin Yun were to upgrade his martial technique levels, it would take time to assimilate. This was the most important factor.

Mental Strength could enhance a person's comprehension ability. Although Lin Yun's mental strength was very strong, he could probably only digest a few intermediate-level techniques per day. If he wanted to see a significant increase in strength, it would take at least two to three days.

Lin Yun didn't want to wait that long.

Even if his strength did increase, it wouldn't be as monumental as purchasing a robot with the strength of a beginner level Huajin stage. This matter required a significant amount of time. Therefore, it wasn't something he needed to rush.

He was still planning on dealing with the Lu and Mie families back in Huaxia.

Half a day had already passed. That was a long time.

Mainly, he was worried that if too much time passed, the situation could change.

Compared to this, the slight increase in power he could achieve in a few days wasn't worth much.

During the day was when people exuded the most spiritual energy. He decided to stay in India for one more day.

Tonight would be the time to depart.

Lin Yun closed his eyes.

Based on the rate of increase of Spirit Crystals on the Cosmic Trading System, he estimated that by nightfall, the quantity of Spirit Crystals on the Cosmic Trading System could reach around two thousand two hundred.

At that time, he would also just about be familiar with his current strength.
