The rising sun was as red as fire. The morning light shone through the dew and was crystal clear and bright under the light.
" Roar…" The ferocious roar contained a trace of fear. In the depths of the forest, a ferocious beast as large as an ox was kneeling on the ground. Its bloodshot eyes were as fearful as a tiger's as it begged for mercy.
This kind of human-like appearance made Wushang exceptionally cold.
Standing in front of the giant beast, Wushang's eyes were covered with a piece of cloth. His shoulder-length short hair covered his eyes, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly.
Wu Shang stretched out his hand. The surface was covered in countless thick cocoons. He calmly stretched out a finger, and then flames burned. After that, he compressed it violently. A moment later, a golden laser beam pierced through the giant beast's head in the blink of an eye. After leaving behind a wave of meat fragrance, Wu Shang calmly walked towards the sea.
Standing quietly by the sea, Wushang removed the cloth covering his eyes. He welcomed the rising sun and slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes were so black that they shone like stars, containing countless spiritual light.
"Phew…it's been more than forty days. It's getting closer to a month and a half.”Opening his arms, Wushang took a deep breath. It was as if he was embracing the entire sea. His entire body was bathed in divine light, causing the surrounding scenery to pale in comparison.
"That's right, Brother Wushang. I didn't expect time to pass so quickly.”At this moment, Wu Ming walked over from behind and said.
After much consideration, they decided to cultivate separately during the day and chat or discuss the content of cultivation together at night.
Raising his hand and stroking the three blurry scars on his right face, Wushang's lips curled up as he muttered to himself," I'm really looking forward to the competition soon. Red Hound, are you ready? I hope you can withstand the few abilities I've developed.”
"Forget it. There are still a few days before the competition. Let's continue cultivating. We should go into the sea today. Last time, it was a thousand meters. Let's see if we can make a breakthrough this time.”
During this period of time, Wushang discovered that his fruit ability could still exist in the sea. This made him very surprised. Although he couldn't figure out the reason no matter how he thought about it, this could be his biggest trump card.
He stretched his body. His upper body was bare, and he was wearing a pair of tattered shorts. It could not hide his slender muscles and strength at all.
"I hope there's a small sea king. It's been a long time since I've tasted it.”With a wicked smile, Wushang flew into the air and headed straight for the depths of the sea.
" Wait for me, I'll go too." Wu Ming also dived into the sea to cultivate like Wu Shang.
One had to know that this place was close to the windless zone. The first time he went into the sea to cultivate, Wushang had almost died at the hands of a large sea king. If he had not run fast, Wushang might have already turned into feces.
As for the small Sea Kings, Wushang had been fortunate enough to eat two of them. He had to admit that the meat of these creatures was especially good, and the most important thing was that they contained countless strange energies. With Wushang's huge appetite, he could eat half of them in one meal. If he cultivated too much, he might only have half of a small Sea King left.
They also talked about the medium-sized sea kings that the siblings had encountered at the beginning, and they could not help but reminisce again.
" Splash…" Water splashed everywhere as Wushang dived into the sea like a human-shaped sea snake.
As soon as he entered the sea, Wushang activated his Sight and Vision. At this moment, Wushang's Sight and Vision had already reached 500 meters. However, as he dove deeper and deeper, his perception kept shrinking.
100 meters, 500 meters, 1,000 meters. Wushang's vision kept shrinking. In the end, he could only see a radius of 10 meters.
Moreover, the density of the water was getting higher and higher. The incomparable pressure made Wushang's body turn red.
Here, the sunlight could no longer be seen. Only a faint trace of sunlight could be seen.
In this place, eyes were useless. The only thing he could rely on was his sight and vision within a ten-meter radius.
He moved his body and felt the pressure coming from all directions. Wushang began to stretch his fists and raise his feet, directly cultivating.
A thousand meters underwater was Wushang's limit. Even if he were to dive another meter, the increased pressure would definitely not be something Wushang could withstand. Nameless had already stopped diving at 800 meters.
However, today, Wushang decided to break through a little. Even if he couldn't dive another meter, he had to reach half a meter.
If he added the armor, he might be able to dive a few meters deeper.
Just like that, in the pitch-black deep sea, no one knew that a human was cultivating desperately.
Half an hour later, the surface of the sea exploded with a loud bang. Two figures soared into the sky. Their slender and scarred bodies were so strong and sturdy as they welcomed the sunlight.
" Phew…Phew…" In a flash, they went to the beach and sat down on the beach. Wushang and Wuming took in large mouthfuls of air, suffocating them.
"I broke through for another minute. It seems that I can cultivate for 31 minutes under the sea in the future.”After hearing Wushang's words, even Nameless couldn't help but admire Wushang's persistence.
"There's still no progress on the armed color. Looks like I have to use some other methods.”At this moment, Wushang's armor color could already cover his entire body, but it was very thin. Only a faint layer of black material could be seen. However, if it was all condensed on his hands, it would be pitch-black.
One had to know that a month ago, Wushang's armor could only cover his palm, but now it could cover his entire arm. This was a big breakthrough.
The most important thing was that Wushang's physical fitness had improved a lot. If he was a piece of steel that had not been tempered before, then he had already tempered it once. Don't underestimate this time. It was because of this small breakthrough that Wushang's physical skills and domineering aura had improved by a level.
Most importantly, Wushang's Devil Fruit had become even stronger. Previously, the highest temperature of the flame was 300,000 degrees Celsius. Now, it was at least 500,000 degrees Celsius.
When the flame broke through, Wu Shang finally developed the light energy heat line of the flame.
Just like the yellow ape, Wushang kept condensing flames at his fingertips. Not only could he shoot out light, but the temperature was also extremely high. Once it exploded, even a major general would vomit blood.
Although he had developed an ability in light, he had no clue about magnetic fields.
However, Wushang believed that as long as he continued to experiment, he would definitely be able to develop it one day.
Compared to these, Wushang was more excited about the breakthrough in speed.
After experimenting countless times, he almost crippled his legs once. Wu Shang kept condensing flames under his feet and then used Instant Steps to respond to the explosion. It was equivalent to teleportation for a short period of time, reducing the preparation time for Instant Steps.
However, this speed could not be used for a long time, because even with the protection of the armor, it could not completely eliminate the pressure on his legs.
Hence, this move could only be used in close combat. During this period of time, Wushang was constantly adapting to this speed, hoping to use it in battle as soon as possible.
In conclusion, these 40 days of cultivation had not been in vain. Now, Wushang's strength was very likely to be at the Lieutenant General level or even beyond. If he went all out, the Lieutenant General might have to pay the price with his life.
As for the beasts on the island that were comparable to lieutenant generals, they were only comparable. After all, compared to humans, the intelligence of these beasts was not very high.
Fighting with an experienced lieutenant general was definitely not something these beasts could compare to, because they were completely on a different level.
"I wonder what happened in the world in the past month and a half. How are Master and the others?”
He sat on the beach in a daze. These forty days of isolation were enough for many things to happen that Wushang did not know about.
"Forget it, I don't want to think too much. I'm leaving anyway. Let's solve the problem of my stomach first.”
Rubbing his stomach, Wushang realized that it was getting late. It was time to prepare for lunch.
Just like that, time passed in the blink of an eye. Unknowingly, the one and a half month deadline had finally arrived.
The sea breeze blew past, and a warship actually appeared on the calm sea. One look at the logo and one could tell that it belonged to the navy.
"I wonder how those two lunatics are doing.”On the warship, Huoshao Shan, who had become much stronger, stared at the approaching island.
"He definitely won't die." Beside him, the Ghost Spider placed one hand on the two swords at his waist and said in a low voice.
"They must have become much stronger. After all, only lunatics like them would choose to stay on that hellish island.”
"I have to say that sometimes I really admire them. I wonder who will win this competition. After returning last time, Red Hound and the others have changed their normal state and cultivated desperately.”
"In terms of cultivation, who is stronger than that madman? Just wait and see. When we return this time, I reckon that the Scarlet Hound will be defeated again.”
"Are you so sure?" The Ghost Spider looked at the Burning Mountain.
"Maybe." Huo Shaoshan stared at the island that was gradually becoming clearer.
A moment later, the huge warship quietly stopped on the coastline.
As soon as the warship was docked, two figures appeared out of thin air.
Looking at the two figures who suddenly appeared on the deck, Huoshan and Phantom Spider's pupils constricted, and their hearts were in turmoil.
Both of them had disheveled hair and were naked. They were naked, wearing a pair of tattered shorts. Only a pair of dark and bright eyes could be vaguely seen. Most importantly, they could feel a violent aura from the two of them, like prehistoric birds of prey. It was as if they would be mercilessly killed in the next moment.
"W-Wushang…Wuming…"
Huoshan swallowed his saliva and was a little uncertain. After all, their faces were covered by their hair.
" Phew…Phew…" Slightly anxious, Wushang and Nameless calmed down the blood in their hearts. Wushang reached out to slightly stroke his hair and said in a gentle tone," I'm sorry. I just finished cultivating. I've troubled you this time."”
"It's really you guys. It's only been a month, but you guys seem to have become savages.”Spider Ghost's face twitched because the two of them had disheveled hair and were unkempt. Other than a pair of tattered shorts, they looked like beggars.
Wushang smiled bitterly." Let's go take a shower first. Please prepare some food for me. To be honest, I'm already tired of eating roasted meat during this period of time.”After saying that, Wushang and Nameless walked towards the cabin. After taking a few steps, as if he had thought of something, Wushang turned around and looked at Huoshan." Please prepare more. I'll order 300 servings first. Sorry for the trouble."”
Looking at their disappearing figures, the faces of Ghost Spider and the other man twitched. They didn't know what to say.
"Looks like these two lunatics have become stronger again. The aura on their bodies actually makes me feel afraid.”Spider Ghost's face was solemn. Just based on the terrifying speed of Wushang and the other two, they could not even catch up.
"There's going to be a good show when we get back this time. As expected of the second of the five monsters, and there's also the first ranked madman.”
As early as last month, when they returned to the headquarters, the students of this batch had publicly recognized five monsters. They were Wushang, Wu Ming, Red Hound, Huang Yuan, and Qing Zhi. In the beginning, they were still unconvinced of Wu Ming. Later on, when they learned of his battle achievements with Red Hound and Huang Yuan, they all shut their mouths.
Although there were high and low rankings, the one that was recognized the most was Wushang, who was ranked first. Everyone gave Wushang a nickname, which was Madman. It was a very down-to-earth title.
