"%&*@"
Su Yu cursed in a low voice. The strength had vanished so suddenly, and he, who was merely at the Origin Opening Realm, had been punching out with full force at the human-shaped puppet. It would then be strange if he didn't feel pain.
He took his communicator and glanced at it as he made a judgment.
"The duration lasts for five minutes and it costs one drop of essence blood to activate. It isn't just simple attacks as the attacks contain some effect of laceration. That should be the effect of the racial skills and not just normal brute strength attacks…"
He took a glance at the puppet and saw the thin wound on the neck, which was currently closing up. This type of puppet could slowly recover even after it was damaged. This was the reason why the cultivation dojo would use such materials to forge it.
"There's a laceration effect on the puppet. My father who is at the ninth level of the Thousand Pound Realm can do it, and the effect of his attacks should be more serious than this wound. With a single punch that consists of his entire strength, he should be able to open a hole in the puppet. But my continuous attacks only created a thin wound…
"The strength I unleashed earlier was roughly at the level of someone at the sixth or seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm. It should be the seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm. After all, an expert at the sixth level would find it impossible to cause any damage.
"In that case, this has a connection with the level of the ironwing bird I activated. Evidently, the one displayed in the booklet is an ironwing bird at the seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm…"
"Attack power at the seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm. One drop of essence blood. Duration: 5 minutes…"
Su Yu's gaze flickered. This indicated that he now possessed an attacking power of this level.
Naturally, attacking power wasn't equal to strength.
Someone at the true seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm would have a powerful body, swift speed, agile movements, and a wealth of combat experience…In any case, he wouldn't be able to be comparable to them.
Only if one was to talk about simply attacking a dead object, would Su Yu be comparable to someone at the seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm.
If he really encountered someone at the seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm and if the other party was prepared, they would be able to kill Su Yu instantly. After all, Su Yu didn't have a strong body. Only his hands were filled with strength.
"Let alone someone at the seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm, even if it's someone at the third or fourth level, as long as they are prepared and don't get close to me to give me a chance to attack, I'll die for sure if I fight them. I won't be their match at all. I can't even catch up to their speed."
Su Yu shook his head slightly. Earlier, when he had felt limitless strength, that was merely an illusion. In reality, this ability would only provide him with a little help.
He could only use it as a trump card. If he exposed it, it wouldn't have much threat to people at the third level of the Thousand Pound Realm or even those below it. The other party could simply run away and come back to kill him when his strength had faded.
"However…it isn't as if there are no benefits. The benefits are actually very great!"
Su Yu suddenly smiled. Humans couldn't be too greedy. This was already very impressive.
He was merely at the Origin Opening Realm. To put it unpleasantly, he was just an ordinary person. Yet, he could actually erupt forth with the attack power of someone at the seventh level of the Thousand Pound Realm for five minutes. Wasn't this enough?
"It's just that the aftereffects are a little too big…"
At this moment, Su Yu could fully feel the aftereffects. Both of his arms were swollen.
The pain was so bad that they turned numb. This was why he didn't feel anything earlier.
"Laceration…this martial skill is too crude. The racial skill of the ironwing bird naturally won't be suitable for humans. The martial skills that humans researched and developed are stronger than this. However, if I can learn a martial skill from some of the powerful races, that will still be greatly beneficial to me."
Su Yu's eyes shone with light as he had finished his research on the ironwing bird. In truth, there was nothing much to research. But what about a different race?
If he could get the racial skills of other races…
"Do the civilization academies have rewards for such research?"
"If one day I managed to show my research of the gods or devil race, replicating their cultivation arts, martial skills, and even innate racial skills, wouldn't that be an incomparably immense contribution?"
Su Yu gulped down a mouthful of saliva. He suddenly smiled. "I feel that…the civilization academies are basically tailor-fit for me! I think I can completely join them and sell them martial skills…"
Thinking about it was one thing. Su Yu wasn't serious about this in actuality.
He was just a puny newbie. If he went to a civilization academy and showed people that he had researched the racial skills and innate talents of the god and devil races, he wouldn't be a genius but a monster.
(Have you seen gods and devils before?)
(Have you fought them before?)
(Even if you managed to research them, who would believe you?!)
Su Yu self-entertained before laughing again. After that, he didn't waste his time in this place. Although he couldn't activate another skill, he could still cultivate assiduously.
Only cultivators at the eighth level of the Origin Opening Realm would train in martial skills. Because if one hadn't reached the eighth level, it would be useless to train as they didn't have sufficient strength. However, Su Yu had learned quite a few martial skills. And at this moment, he began to train in them.
In the past, he felt that the eighth level was still far away. But now… was it really still far away?
Making preparations in advance was always better, or he might end up not knowing anything when he reached the eighth level. At that time, if he just had the cultivation base but not the relevant strength, he would be nothing but trash.
