Complete Martial Arts Attributes - Chapter 3182

Chapter 3118 Those who play illusions are all cunning! They are completely unable to escape the limitations of their own talents!

Wang Teng finally absorbed the last of the Mirage Clan’s combat techniques, and the corresponding insights appeared.

“An archery-type combat technique!”

Wang Teng’s eyes widened slightly, his heart trembling.

It was actually an archery-type combat technique!

Excellent!

The Mirage Clan truly knew how to surprise him!

Archery-type combat techniques were quite rare among the many attribute-based combat techniques.

Now, the Mirage Clan had actually produced an archery-type technique—what could be more surprising than a delightful surprise?

Wang Teng immediately began absorbing and comprehending.

A silhouette of the Mirage Clan appeared, wielding a war bow, its body erupting with black light, which then condensed on the war bow.

This was an extremely normal scene.

Black light condensed into an arrow, nothing unusual.

However, after the arrow was fired, countless afterimages appeared.

Densely packed, it seemed as if countless arrows were simultaneously erupting.

“Is this an illusion? Or reality?”

Wang Teng stared in astonishment, somewhat shocked, at this scene.

Compared to the archery techniques he had acquired before, this current one seemed quite formidable.

The dense array of arrows was comparable to the burst of arrows from [Dawn’s Descent].

However, their development directions were clearly different.

One focused on the power of light, emphasizing wide-area attacks and purifying everything.

This [Illusory Mirage Thousandfold Arrow Technique], on the other hand, seemed to be a unique technique combining illusion and reality.

After absorbing the insights, Wang Teng finally understood completely.

Just as he had guessed, the arrow light condensed by this technique was indeed between illusion and reality.

The dense array of arrows wasn’t entirely solid.

The amount of solidity formed depended entirely on the individual; they could condense more or less.

Its flexibility was off the charts.

“Another underhanded technique!”

“The Illusory Mirage Clan truly are ancestors in the art of underhanded tactics,”

Wang Teng thought with awe.

Those who play illusions, how can they not be underhanded?

Normal! Normal! “Normal!

I’ll say it three times because it’s important. “

Wang Teng understood.

“This combat skill is at the lower-level Demon Lord level, and it’s even reached the proficiency level!”

Looking at the attributes on the attribute panel, Wang Teng was very happy.

A lower-level Demon Lord level archery combat skill is quite rare, at least

among the Dark Race. The

[Yin Wind Demon Bone Poison Arrow] he fused before was only at the peak of the upper-level Demon Emperor level. Even

though it could rival a lower-level Demon Lord level combat skill

, it would definitely have certain limitations compared to a true lower-level Demon Lord level combat skill.

For example, one would need to cultivate this peak upper-level Demon Emperor level combat skill to a minor level before it could rival a lower-level Demon Lord level combat skill.

Or, for example, one might need to add other powers, such as special flames or special ice, to potentially transform its power.

Unlike this [Illusory Mirage Thousandfold Arrow Technique], which is itself a lower-level Demon Lord level skill; as long as it is used normally, it can unleash the power of a lower-level Demon Lord level skill.

One is top-tier! The other is basic!

Can they be the same?

Therefore, Wang Teng was overjoyed to see that the [Illusory Mirage Thousandfold Arrow Technique] was at the lower-level Demon Lord level.

“Right, can’t this combat skill be fused with [Yin Wind Demon Bone Poison Arrow]?”

He started to get restless again.

Since they were both dark-type combat skills, it should, maybe, probably… perhaps it could, right?

One should always make bold assumptions and try carefully.

The next moment, the words “Fused” appeared after both [Illusory Mirage Thousandfold Arrow Technique] and [Yin Wind Demon Bone Poison Arrow].

Wang Teng was slightly delighted and, without hesitation, chose to fuse them.

[Illusory Mirage Thousandfold Arrow Technique] + [Yin Wind Demon Bone Poison Arrow] = [Thousand Illusory Yin Wind Demon Bone Poison Arrow] (Lower-level Demon Lord level): 8600/15000 (Mastery);

“Hahaha…”

Wang Teng couldn’t help but burst into laughter when he saw the name of the newly fused combat skill.

Classic!

So classic!

The name of the fused combat skill was exactly what he expected.

“Thousand Illusions, Yin Wind, Demonic Bone, Poison Arrow!”

He uttered the name, finding it surprisingly easy to pronounce, and let it go.

Names weren’t really that important.

This new combat skill was now at the lower-level Demon Lord level, and his mastery was at the proficiency level,

just like the original [Illusory Mirage Thousandfold Arrow Technique].

Its attribute values had indeed increased slightly. This

was probably due to the insights gained from [Yin Wind, Demonic Bone, Poison Arrow], which was at least at the minor completion level.

Wang Teng was extremely satisfied with this; after the fusion, he possessed an additional characteristic—what more could he want?

With this, he had absorbed all the combat skill attributes of the Illusory Mirage Clan, and he immediately looked at the next dark race’s combat skill.

Dark Scale Clan!

Wang Teng’s eyes flashed; he hadn’t seemed to have acquired many combat skills from this dark race before.

…

[Demon Scale Scythe] (Upper Demon Emperor Level): 3300/15000 (Mastery);

[Dark Scale Tail] (Upper Demon Emperor Level): 7500/15000 (Mastery);

[Demon Scale Fist] (Peak Upper Demon Emperor Level): 4200/12000 (Minor Mastery);

[Dark Thousand Scale Whip] (Lower Demon Lord Level): 5600/15000 (Mastery);

[Nether Scale Demon Meteor Hammer] (Lower Demon Lord Level): 6200/15000 (Mastery);

…

Several combat techniques appeared in Wang Teng’s mind.

Only five.

He was very calm this time. With the example of the Illusionary Mirage Clan there, he was able to treat it with a normal mindset.

Having already acquired so many dark combat techniques, one more from the Dark Scale Clan wouldn’t hurt.

Besides, these included both high-level Demon Emperor and Demon Lord-level techniques, which wasn’t bad at all.

So he immediately began absorbing the insights from these techniques, various realizations arising in his mind.

The first two techniques that appeared were ones he had previously acquired:

Demon Scale Scythe and

Dark Scale Tail!

These two techniques were among the most common of the Dark Scale Clan.

Why?

Because Wang Teng had seen many Dark Scale Clan members use these two techniques in a very consistent manner.

At the time, he hadn’t thought much of it, but now, looking back, he realized that the combat techniques of these dark races were indeed quite singular.

Even so, they were still incredibly difficult to deal with, demonstrating the terrifying nature of the dark races.

Wang Teng shook his head, absorbing the insights from these two techniques, and his mastery of them rapidly improved.

“Both have advanced from minor to major mastery!”

A glint flashed in his eyes, and he was extremely pleased.

The Darkscale Clan did not disappoint him; at least they had mastered these two high-level Demon Emperor-level combat techniques.

Then, a new combat technique comprehension appeared.

A figure appeared in Wang Teng’s mind—the appearance of a Darkscale Clan member, covered in scales, with a ferocious appearance and long, sharp tails trailing behind it.

Its figure moved rapidly through the void, leaving afterimages in its wake, before suddenly throwing a punch.

Boom!

A massive fist imprint instantly condensed, its surface flashing with runes.

This fist imprint was very peculiar, seemingly constructed from stacked scales, possessing a sense of hardness.

The strange runes intertwined with the scales, making the fist imprint appear somewhat eerie and peculiar.

The punch pressed down, shattering space and unleashing terrifying power.

Wang Teng was shaken.

This combat technique was quite powerful; it wasn’t a fist technique primarily based on the [Source of Power],

yet it could unleash tremendous force.

This is truly remarkable.

To achieve this with just the power of darkness demonstrates the profound understanding the Dark Scale Clan’s Dark Seed has gained of its power.

However, what surprised Wang Teng even more was that this combat technique wasn’t finished yet.

In the comprehension scene, the fist imprint was colliding with the technique of a warrior from the Light Universe.

The two seemed evenly matched.

But ultimately, the fist imprint suddenly exploded.

With a deafening roar, Wang Teng saw countless black lights burst forth, annihilating the Light Universe warrior opposite.

“This is… scale armor!?”

Wang Teng’s eyes widened slightly, as if he had seen something, his heart filled with astonishment.

The fist imprint could actually explode, forming an attack resembling thousands of scales.

“Interesting!”

He couldn’t help but laugh.

This combat technique truly resonated with him.

“Demon Scale Fist!”

“A peak Upper-Rank Demon Emperor-level combat technique, reaching the minor completion level!”

Wang Teng looked at the attribute values on his attribute panel, nodded slightly, and continued absorbing the comprehension of the next combat technique.

Another Darkscale Clan figure materialized, wielding a long whip and dancing in the void.

This was yet another whip-based combat technique!

Wang Teng’s eyes flashed, and he immediately began to rapidly absorb its essence.

The Darkscale Clan figure wielded its whip with impenetrable force, each whip shadow seemingly materializing, surrounded by condensing black mist that ultimately transformed into giant black pythons.

These pythons roared as they charged towards the Light Universe warriors opposite them, clashing violently with their attacks.

However, these black pythons formed from the whip were truly terrifying, possessing an almost living agility that left their opponents struggling to cope.

“These Dark Clan combat techniques are so bizarre!”

Wang Teng didn’t know whether to sigh or rejoice.

In truth, every time he saw the Light Universe warriors in the comprehension scenes being suppressed by Dark Clan techniques, he couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat for them.

It was too difficult!

Those Light Universe warriors were truly having a very difficult time.

But he, unfortunately, was the ultimate beneficiary; he ultimately gained the insights into these combat techniques.

The ability to obtain so many attribute bubbles was largely thanks to the struggle between the warriors of the Light Universe and the Dark Race.

Therefore…

“Thank you all!”

Wang Teng silently expressed his gratitude.

If given the opportunity, he would kill more Dark Race members.

This was his promise to the fallen warriors of the Light Universe.

And from the moment he embarked on the path of martial arts until now, he had always done so, without ever changing his mind.

“This whip technique is quite similar to [Dark Scale Tail]!”

Wang Teng had just absorbed a considerable amount of insight into [Dark Scale Tail], pushing it to its peak level, so he was naturally very clear about the similarity between the two techniques.

The attack method of condensing a giant python was virtually identical.

He suddenly understood why most members of the Dark Scale Clan used the [Demon Scale Scythe] and [Dark Scale Tail] techniques.

Look at the techniques they created; they were so similar to [Dark Scale Tail], and also related to their innate talent.

Indeed, the Dark Scale Clan’s tail was also part of their talent .

Given this situation, why would they bother creating new techniques? It would be completely redundant.

“In terms of results, there’s no need to create new combat techniques.”

“They haven’t been able to escape the limitations of their own talents.”

Wang Teng pondered.

While many dark races, and even warriors from the Light Universe, utilize their talents in conjunction with combat techniques, resulting in highly targeted abilities, the fact

that the dark races, after existing for so long, haven’t created many different combat techniques speaks volumes about their limitations.

Sometimes Wang Teng even looked down on those dark races; they seemed to lack common sense. All

that big brains for nothing.

All that eating for so many years for nothing.

“However, this might also be related to the uniformity of the talents of the dark races.”

Wang Teng suddenly thought of something, and this thought flashed through his mind.

These dark races are similar to some special races in the Light Universe; each race generally possesses only one type of talent, with new mutated talents only occasionally emerging.

Under such circumstances, the combat techniques they use naturally exhibit a high degree of uniformity. Since they all share the same talent, the combat techniques they use are certainly similar.   Unlike the Light Universe, where there are many races, and also many ordinary warriors who are not special races.   This leads to a result… a flourishing

of diverse talents   !   Even ordinary martial artists can reach the pinnacle, eventually creating combat techniques best suited to themselves.   Over time, these techniques naturally multiply, becoming increasingly diverse and imbued with various artistic conceptions.   At this moment, Wang Teng felt as if he had discovered a flaw in the dark race.

Being of the same race isn’t necessarily a good thing.

Moreover, the class system among the Dark Races is extremely influential; low-ranking Dark Races have absolutely no chance of rising to the top.

This is because their talent is lacking!

Martial artists, and even among the Dark Races, all value talent.

Higher talent leads to greater strength and a higher status.

The reason low-ranking Dark Races remain low-ranking is because their talent is too low—it’s a cause-and-effect relationship.

However, the latter is the cause, and the former is the effect.

Therefore, the high-ranking Dark Races Wang Teng encountered were often filled with arrogance and conceit.

They never took low-ranking Dark Races seriously.

This arrogance and conceit only cause the Dark Race to stagnate in many aspects.

This is not an exaggeration!

Wang Teng could almost imagine that the Dark Race’s combat techniques were probably created a long time ago, practically ancient relics.

Otherwise, so many Dark Races wouldn’t be cultivating them!

“The Dark Race is nothing more than a strange entity possessing the power of darkness,”

Wang Teng’s eyes flashed, and he sneered inwardly.

At this moment, his understanding suddenly changed.

The giant pythons formed from the long whips suddenly exploded, countless black lights shooting in all directions before converging back towards the warriors of the Bright Universe.

“This is…”

Wang Teng was somewhat surprised. Wasn’t this the same explosive method as the [Demon Scale Fist] from before? This combat technique could do it too? (End of Chapter)
