179 Strengthen (1/2)
There were only three days left, and Happy's mission became a heavy burden on his shoulders. Not only did he have to push Stormy Shadowless Kick to Grandmaster Realm so it would become his main skill after he reached Blessed Realm, he also did not want to set aside his Flowering Knights' Song, which was already at Level 96.
Stormy Shadowless Kick had incredible attack speed and could help him bring out all his skills, battle experience, and power from his previous life to its maximum potential.
Flowering Knights' Song might be slightly lacking in comparison, but its damage was more than twice of Stormy Shadowless Kick. Once it reached Grandmaster Realm, together with Wind Spirit Spin, it could also be used as one of his killing moves when he entered Fox Cave because of its astonishing power in group battles!
Aside from Stormy Shadowless Kick and Flowering Knights' Song, he also had to level up Wind Spirit Spin.
Besides a large number of fox monsters in Fox Cave, there would also be people from different factions and organizations. The distinction between them would be very clear. Even if they could not distinguish between who belonged to what group, it was still very easy to cause another organization to treat them with hostility. They had to have their defensive measures perfected, and by that, he meant body fortification techniques.
Body fortification techniques were very important in World of Martial Arts! Their realm meant a player's ability to resist attacks, and it was the way to survive in group battles!
Without any body fortification techniques or with only low level ones, even if a player had divine weapons and ultimate techniques, it was possible that they could die in a crowd.
Body fortification technique and a lightness skill served as the basis to protect one's life. Only with them could a player bring out the full power of their martial arts and display their strength.
Happy knew this very clearly.
As of then, the Black Sand Invulnerable Body was only at the ninth realm. Even though it was not low, compared to some professional gamers and high-tier body fortification techniques, the difference was like night and day.
He had the high-tier body fortification technique, Golden Bell Cocoon, which was a high-tier martial art that corresponded with many low-tier body fortification techniques. But if he could not master Black Sand Invulnerable Body, the advantage of Golden Bell Cocoon would be pushed back indefinitely, and it was something Happy did not want to see.
Even though his trip to Mount Song had brought him many unexpected surprises and rewards, and his abilities had increased greatly, Happy still had plans to perform a high-intensity training regime over the next couple to be more prepared for the upcoming trip to Fox Cave.
He had to use the shortest amount of time possible to increase the level of his martial arts.
It was of vital importance for him to hold the high-intensity training he always used during the later stages of the game in his previous life.
Happy rode on his purplish-red horse toward Luoyang. He no longer cared about how much attention he would attract by entering the city in such a flashy manner. He only stopped when he reached the commission shop.
Since the time he placed his notice, he had managed to buy four high-tier martial art manuals with the total of one million and eight hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs he had placed in the commission shop. Of course, he did not manage to buy the more popular and trending saber techniques and blade techniques. Instead, he got one bow technique, two spear techniques, and one axe technique.
Happy sent all of the high-tier martial art manuals to Phoenix Dances and asked her to choose someone suitable from Beautiful Robes Faction to practice them. Then, he took the money she paid him and bought a set of gear that provided above average defense.
With eight hundred thousand silver crumbs in hand, the range of items he could buy became quite wide.
Aside from buying Yellow Dragon Archer Gear that was worth three hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs, he also spent one hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs to buy a set of Yellow Dragon Gauntlets and Yellow Dragon Boots.
[Yellow Dragon Archer Gear: Increase 200 defense. Increase Body Movement by 3. Has a chance to reduce 20% of incoming damage.]
[Yellow Dragon Gauntlets: Increase attack speed by 5. Increase Balance Recovery by 1. Increase Body Movement by 2.]
[Yellow Dragon Boots: Increase movement speed by 10%. Increase Dodge Rate by 9. Increase Body Movement by 2.]
The higher a player's Body Movement was, the faster they were. The higher the Dodge Rate, the more likely it was that the player would avoid being injured.
