Chapter 1035: The Second Level – Reaching the Inner Realm

Wind Filling the Sky: Level 1.00 (First Level)
Using “Wind Filling the Sky” before casting any full-level master martial arts technique allows for a double attack! It consumes 200 points of internal energy and has a cooldown time of 30 seconds!
(When reaching Level 99.99, one enters the ultimate seventh level, enabling up to eight simultaneous attacks!)
Upon reading the description of Wind Filling the Sky’s attributes, Kai Xin couldn’t help but take a deep breath in joy—knowing he had stumbled upon a treasure!
Originally, with his current strength, his advantages lay only in defense and control.
The “Dragon Seizing Hand” technique from the True Dragon Series allowed him to be invincible among players of the same level, even enabling him to easily defeat top experts one level above him.
The “Meridians Strengthening Scripture” greatly enhanced his recovery and defense capabilities, giving Kai Xin the potential to become a super tank to some extent.
Especially after unlocking the “True Vital Energy Field,” he had the ability to survive even under the full force of experts like Yin Hou and Evil King.
But when it came to attacks and lethality, Kai Xin’s strength certainly couldn’t be considered among the top experts…
If it weren’t for the “Dragon Seizing Hand’s” powerful ability to instantly control enemies, if it weren’t for “Wave-Stepping”’s ability to quickly close in on foes, and if it weren’t for the “Black Iron Heavy Sword” enhancing the power of the “Demonic World-Annihilation Art,” his lethality would have remained quite weak.
It was just an ordinary unique martial arts manual from the Liberation Realm!
Compared to the top-tier unique martial arts manuals from the Non-Action Realm, Kai Xin’s was far inferior…
Without the “Dragon Seizing Hand’s” absolute control ability and “Wave-Stepping”’s elusive movement skills, his offensive power would hardly pose a real threat to true top experts.
Facing experts like Emperor Yi, without the “Black Iron Heavy Sword’s” outstanding blocking effect and powerful sword intent, he would have no way to counter the “Thirteen Deathly Swords”!
Attack power had always been Kai Xin’s biggest flaw and weakness.
But now!
The emergence of Wind Filling the Sky undoubtedly brought hope to him.
Although it required a 30-second cooldown each time it was used, its unexpected ability to double lethality was almost unheard of.
And this was just the initial overlapping effect.
Kai Xin thought of the lethal power of the sword intent emanating from the stone tablet!
Eight consecutive attacks, layered together—their deterrence effect need hardly be described.

Even if the power of “Demonic Hong World-Annihilation Art” is less than 40,000 points, if it can be used eight times in succession, even a peerless master like the Evil King would likely not be able to escape unscathed.
“…”
A hint of fanatical excitement appeared on Happy’s face.
This technique, “Wind Filling the Sky,” temporarily compensated for his weakness in lethality. Used at critical moments, it would likely overwhelm any opponent with its power derived from the art’s essence.
“However, double the attack strength doesn’t necessarily mean it’s that much more powerful…”
“I need to find a way to raise the level of ‘Wind Filling the Sky.’ Reaching the seventh level could unleash eight times the attack power… Although reaching full level in a short time is impossible, it shouldn’t be too hard to raise it to the fourth or fifth level before the Evil Emperor arrives in the Central Plains.”
His gaze shifted as it landed on the Mythical Realm prisoner in the cell!
The latter shuddered, sensing an ominous premonition.
…
The Mythical Realm prisoner’s intuition was correct.
Every time he trained with Happy before, Happy never fought back, merely allowing the attacks to land—yet that alone had already left him utterly frustrated, facing an invincible foe.
Now, Happy suddenly proposed sparring.
Facing the counterattacks of such an invincible opponent, no one’s mood could remain good.
The black iron great sword created a bloody half-moon-shaped gust of wind in the air! The intense pressure instantly sucked away all the air around the Mythical Realm prisoner!
His expression changed.
“Slaughter All Beings!”
Happy had unleashed one of the three most lethal techniques from “Demonic Hong World-Annihilation Art” right away.
“Break through!”
Even Shi Zhexuan couldn’t ignore such an attack, let alone a master in the early stages of the Mythical Realm. Seeing Happy’s astonishing offensive moves, he focused his gaze, reached out with his left hand, and swung his right hand like a whip, releasing internal energy through the strike.
Slap!
Slap slap slap slap!!
A series of explosive sounds quickly filled the air.
These were the noises caused by the rapid movement of fist winds through the air—something that could only occur when speed exceeded a certain threshold. A Mythical Realm master had used a powerful move he hadn’t employed before.
Yet, Happy showed no sign of surprise, instead revealing a slight look of anticipation.

Slaying All Living Beings – its combined destructive power approaches 50,000, already very close to the full-force strike of an early-stage mythic expert. Combined with “Wind Filling the Sky,” the sudden burst of power is absolutely beyond what an ordinary early-stage mythic expert can withstand. If the latter acts carelessly, things will only get worse; it is when the opponent goes all out that the true power of “Wind Filling the Sky” is fully revealed.

Head-on confrontation!

After a series of explosive sounds, continuous palm forces, like exploding beans, struck the black iron great sword at an astonishing frequency…

The sword light spat out was shattered to pieces by the relentless palm forces even before it reached the mythic expert!

There was still plenty of remaining palm force.

The sword light was instantly destroyed, and the remaining force rushed unimpeded toward Kai Xin!

Just as the mythic expert showed a look of pride, a barely audible “whoosh” sound suddenly came from the air.

It was like the gentle sound of willow branches swaying, eerily serene.

The sound instantly became clear!

Whoosh!!!

A sword light, no less powerful than “Slaying All Living Beings” before, moved at incredible speed, effortlessly shattering the remaining palm forces of the mythic expert and slashing hard at him.

Bang!!

Although protective barriers quickly formed around his body, he still couldn’t help but let out a pained grunt, stepping back several times before finally stabilizing himself, then staring at Kai Xin with a shocked expression.

“The surprise is good, but relying on double attacks to decide the outcome against the Evil Emperor is highly unlikely!”

Kai Xin made a rational assessment.

However, this didn’t affect his emphasis on “Wind Filling the Sky.” After all, it was still at level 1.00, the first stage of “Wind Filling the Sky.” This ultimate technique still had great potential for improvement. Being able to repel an early-stage mythic expert head-on was already quite impressive!

“Continue…”

With a beautiful curve on his lips, Kai Xin decisively summoned the other three mythic experts into the same cell.

Thirty seconds passed.

A white aura burst out from Kai Xin’s body!

Whoosh!

Wind Filling the Sky!

…

Half an hour later, Kai Xin was utterly frustrated.

…

“Damn!”

…

“This is way too slow…”

…

“‘Wind Filling the Sky’ can only be used twice a minute, and each use only raises the level by 0.01!”

“Only 0.6 levels raised in half an hour! That’s not reasonable!”

Kai Xin was extremely frustrated. It was the first time he had encountered a martial art that was so difficult to master even at level 1.00. He had three experts at the Mythical Realm level train with him for half an hour, yet he hadn’t made any progress at all. Reaching the second level seemed far off, and at this pace, it would be miraculous if he could reach it even in a day…
…
The next day!
It was also the seventh day since the Evil Emperor disappeared!
Kai Xin sadly discovered that after days and nights of training, he had finally raised the level of “Wind Filling the Sky” to 10.00, but it was still only at the first level. Unlike ordinary martial arts, where reaching level 10 immediately led to the second level, this wasn’t the case.
“…This is too much.”
But Kai Xin quickly resigned himself to fate.
After all, even if all seven levels of “Wind Filling the Sky” were reached—99.99 level—it couldn’t be measured using ordinary methods.
…
The third day…
Kai Xin encountered an even more unacceptable fact!
By the third day, “Wind Filling the Sky” had reached level 15… Each use of “Wind Filling the Sky” no longer allowed level progression. Two uses were needed just to increase the second digit after the decimal point by a tiny amount, meaning a progress of 0.01 per minute—half as fast as before.
“…”
Kai Xin was so depressed he couldn’t speak.
He had thought it would take at most four days to bring “Wind Filling the Sky” to the second level, so that by the time the Evil Emperor arrived in the Central Plains, he could at least have it at the third level!
But now it seemed…
His previous plans were clearly delusional.
The ultimate techniques left by those at the Unity of Heaven and Man realm were indeed extremely difficult to master!
Gritting his teeth, Kai Xin continued his grueling training alone in the prison of the Xifeng Tower gang, refusing to leave.
…
Finally!
By the sixth day, Kai Xin painfully raised the level of “Wind Filling the Sky” to 20.00 and finally heard the system’s pleasant notification:
Ding!
“‘Wind Filling the Sky’ has reached the second level!”
He quickly opened the martial arts manual to check, and indeed, the attributes of “Wind Filling the Sky” had changed slightly.
…
Wind Filling the Sky: Level 20.00 (Second Level)
When using any master-level martial art at full level, activating “Wind Filling the Sky” in advance can unleash triple attacks! Costs 300 points of internal energy! Cooldown time: 30 seconds!

(When reaching level 99.99, one enters the ultimate seventh realm, capable of unleashing up to eight attacks in an instant!)
…
As expected, after advancing to the Wind-Filled Sky realm, its power doubled, allowing for three attacks…
He immediately used these attacks on the prisoner in the Mythical Realm, filled with joy.
Swish!
Just as the second attack pushed back the opponent, another swish followed—as the third attack struck suddenly, causing the opponent’s chest to collapse and them to be slammed hard against the back wall, staring at Happy in horror.
The other two Mythical Realm experts watching also showed shocked expressions, their gazes toward Happy now filled with caution and reverence.
One move!
Just one move to injure a Mythical Realm expert.
“It worked!”
After a week of hard training, Happy finally breathed a sigh of relief:
The Wind-Filled Sky realm at the second level finally had some real power! It was somewhat presentable now!
