Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 374 - 101: Dharma Aspect Perfection Is Nothing More Than This

Chapter 374: Chapter 101: Dharma Aspect Perfection Is Nothing More Than This

The airship landed in Ocean City.

Zhang Lingfeng returned to the Jiangbei Province Mansion.

Today, it was even more lively than previous days. Jiangbei Province, Ao Dagang, the Huo family, and other relevant leaders from Fourth-Tier Provinces all looked at him with beaming smiles.

No one could imagine that Zhang Lingfeng would successfully advance to the fifth round, and at the last moment, cross twenty-eight layers of steps within thirty seconds in one fell swoop.

It seemed as if he had given his all from the start, without pausing for those three days, he might have reached the two hundredth layer, and might not have performed worse than some first or second-line martial arts students.

Zhang Lingfeng’s miraculous achievements have left everyone dumbfounded time and again.

It almost made people think Zhang Lingfeng was a martial arts student from a first-tier province, a young master from a wealthy family who moved to Jiangbei Province to live a low-key life and experience life.

"Good, it’s good to be back."

The King of North of the River and others had a thousand words to say to Zhang Lingfeng, but when the words reached their mouths, they didn’t know what to say. Thinking about Zhang Lingfeng’s upcoming fifth-round exam tomorrow, to not affect his performance, the King of North of the River and Ao Dagang escorted him back to his room, then dismissed all the guests.

"He has already created many miracles. His future now depends on his own fortune!"

The King of North of the River said.

Ao Dagang and the Huo family nodded in agreement.

Beside them, Ming Cheng was full of envy. Having been led by Zhang Lingfeng into the third round, he was truly grateful. Seeing Zhang Lingfeng advance to the fourth round, he was happy for him. Now, seeing him advance to the fifth round, becoming the focus among fourth-line martial arts students, he was filled with admiration and jealousy.

Ultimately, those complex emotions turned into a blessing; he hoped Zhang Lingfeng would achieve great results in the fifth round.

Since seeing Zhang Lingfeng slay the Black-armored Crocodile with three strikes, Ming Cheng sincerely admired him, long having shed any hostility, and regarded him as a model to emulate.

"Spiritual Replenishing Liquid."

"Bloodline Replenishing Liquid."

"Consciousness Replenishing Liquid."

"These are the cultivation resources the King of North of the River prepared for me."

In the room, Zhang Lingfeng saw a row of various replenishing liquids or medicinal liquids on the table, each bottle highly valuable, prepared by the King of North of the River.

In fact, as much as to say that Jiangbei Province, even all the Fourth-Tier Provinces pooled together these cultivation resources for him to use freely, so he could improve his Spiritual Power, Bloodline Power, and Sea of Consciousness Value at crucial moments.

Clearly, successfully advancing to the fifth round was not only an honor for Jiangbei Province but also for all Fourth-Tier Provinces. His rise could let the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance see the potential and capabilities of Fourth-Tier Provinces.

Invisibly, Zhang Lingfeng felt the burden on his shoulders grow heavier.

He shook his head vigorously, drank all the replenishing and medicinal liquids in sequence, then lay on the bed and snored, using the time for good cultivation to refine the essence of the medicinal replenishing liquid. This was simply impossible.

He couldn’t help it, he was just too exhausted.

Under normal circumstances, Zhang Lingfeng would endure, and while coasting along isn’t self-destructive, it doesn’t mean sleepless toil either.

Moreover, having drunk each kind of replenishing and medicinal liquid here, their effects were gradually diminishing.

The next day, Zhang Lingfeng awoke from his slumber.

He took a brief glance at the panel information.

Coasting Along Value: 2701 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Seven Element Spear Intent: First Layer (4321/5000)

Bloodline Power: Leopard King Bloodline (1679/20000)

Sea of Consciousness: (8.66/100)

Spiritual Power: (12.973/100)

Spiritual Domain: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder (247/12000)

Physical Fitness: 932.1

Combat Power: 7936.7

Seeing that, with the help and nourishment of related replenishing and medicinal liquids, his Leopard King Bloodline value, Sea of Consciousness value, and Spiritual Power had all grown somewhat, his Combat Power and Physical Fitness had also improved, although not by much, it was better than nothing.

Meanwhile, the Coasting Along Value has accumulated to 2701.

In those three days on the Heaven-Ascending Ladder, Zhang Lingfeng’s conduct was not as intense as others’, allowing him to gain a lot of Coasting Along Value each day. Previously, it had accumulated to more than 2500, and after a night’s improvement, he woke up this morning having surpassed 2700.

"My spirit is strong enough, so even if the Spear Intent reaches the second layer, it won’t affect the resonance and fusion with Skills and other Powers of Heaven and Earth."

Zhang Lingfeng muttered to himself.

Thinking about this, he decided to elevate his Spear Intent to the second layer.

With the Spiritual Realm transforming into a Spiritual Domain, the Spear Intent naturally had to keep up.

Coasting Along Value: None

Seven Element Spear Intent: Second Layer (2022/12000)

Combat Power: 8677.8

With the Spear Intent reaching the second layer, Zhang Lingfeng’s Combat Power soared, increasing by more than 700 points, successfully surpassing 8000.0, entering the scope of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

"If it weren’t for my Dharma Power being insufficient, not yet perfect in the eighth layer, the change in my Combat Power with the Seven Element Spear Intent reaching the second layer would surely surpass 8677.8."

"Mr. Zhao and Teacher Guo have reiterated the importance of Dharma Aspect, that only with a strong Dharma Aspect can one uphold stronger Skill Power and Spiritual Realm, etc."

"Perhaps when my Dharma Aspect reaches perfection, I’ll not only be able to release the full potential of Skill waves, but also fully harness the Spiritual Domain, leading to changes in Combat Power beyond my expectations."

Zhang Lingfeng had an intuition that because of the absence of a perfect Dharma Aspect, neither his Spear Intent nor his Spiritual Domain had unleashed their true potential. Otherwise, the power beyond the Five Elements they formed, especially the Combat Power exceeding 8000, would be evident.

He inwardly felt more urgent to unlock the eighth layer of Dharma Aspect, to reach the realm of perfect mastery in the eighth layer as soon as possible, at which point, his Combat Power might exceed 10000.0.

He just didn’t know whether at that time he could truly stand shoulder to shoulder with the top-tier martial arts students in a meaningful way.
