Chapter 84 Killing a Rank 5
Lu Hao's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had been up for ten days straight. This was a side effect of the damage to his mental energy. Even if Lu Hao replenished his mental energy, he couldn't recover all at once.
Lu Hao needs to rest and recuperate to recover.
Lu Hao drew his sword and unleashed a burst of blood-red blade light, its power gradually increasing as he slashed towards the thin-faced man.
Lu Hao had only one thought in mind: to kill the skinny man opposite him.
The thin-faced man opposite him was shocked. After all, Lu Hao had been attacked by his mental energy and had also been attacked by his sword. He had then stood up and continued to fight back.

Seeing Lu Hao attack, the thin-faced man also attacked Lu Hao.
As weapons clashed and blood energy erupted, Lu Hao was knocked back once again, while the thin-faced man only took a few small steps back.
On the surface, the thin-faced man seemed to have the upper hand, but in fact, his blood and energy had been almost completely depleted, and his mental strength had also been consumed in the attack just now.
The recovery of Qi and Blood can no longer keep up with the speed of output, not to mention that the consumption of Mental Energy cannot be recovered under these circumstances.
The thin-faced man was already considering retreating. After all, he was afraid of this bizarre situation and feared that he would perish here.
Lu Hao, however, was getting more and more carried away with the fight, slashing at the thin-faced man again and again.
As Lu Hao's momentum grew stronger, the bloodlust emanating from his blade intensified.
At a certain moment, Lu Hao's blood and spiritual power reached their peak, and at the same time, his invincible aura erupted.
Lu Hao understood; he successfully grasped the ultimate technique. In that instant, he felt his entire being ascending.
It felt as if I had touched upon the mysteries of the entire world; the concept of the unity of heaven and man in ancient texts was nothing more than this.
But the next moment, he returned to reality. However, Lu Hao had already mastered the ultimate move. His control over his Qi and Blood had broken through that thin layer of paper and successfully reached one-third. From then on, he could use one-third of his Qi and Blood in every move.
Lu Hao's eyes lit up as he looked at the "sparring partner" opposite him. He thought to himself, "I've already mastered the ultimate move. It's time for you to log off."
"Die! Slay him!!!"
With a roar, Lu Hao stood in mid-air, holding the knife above his head with both hands, and slashed down with overwhelming force.
This strike contained one-third of his vital energy, which erupted at a rate of over 350 calories.
With a single slash, the void exploded repeatedly, as if the air itself had been cleaved apart.
The thin-faced man's pupils contracted sharply. He knew that he couldn't block the power of this strike, so he tried to turn around and escape from the range of the attack.
However, Lu Hao's fully mastered Phantom Step can not only be used to escape, but also to lock down enemies.
With a single slash, the blade pierced through the thin-faced man's back, instantly creating a large hole.
Lu Hao kicked out, and he didn't hold back this time either. It was still his signature move, a kick carrying 350 calories of energy straight towards the thin-faced man's head.
In an instant, the thin-faced man's head was smashed.
Lu Hao also received the message from the panel.
[Killed an enemy, kill points +2576]
Lu Hao then relaxed, took out a Life-Returning Pill and a Grade 3 Healing Pill from his spatial storage and swallowed them. As for the Life Essence, he didn't need it for his minor injuries.
Lu Hao extracted the thin-faced man's energy heart and also put away his weapon. The weapon used by the thin-faced man was usually made of B-grade alloy, otherwise it would have shattered under the combined attack of the two.
Lu Hao let out a long breath. This time it was indeed a bit dangerous, after all, no one expected that this fifth-grade martial artist had already achieved the ability to project his spiritual power.
If Lu Hao hadn't been able to recover his mental strength, he would have definitely been defeated. Currently, mental strength is still a weakness for Lu Hao, but since reaching the third rank...
The plus sign after "spiritual power" is gone; the only way to increase spiritual power is through cultivation.
However, in cultivation, apart from reaching a higher realm, the only way to increase spiritual power is to temper the bone marrow and skull to increase blood and qi.
However, Lu Hao is currently unable to refine these two items, since his stats are not directly refined like Fang Ping's, but rather indirectly refined by restoring his qi and blood.
Therefore, the only way for me to increase my mental strength is to use rare and precious materials, such as Moonlit Grass or Heavenly Golden Lotus.
However, Lu Hao is not yet exposed to such high-level things, so he can only hope that his opponent's mental strength is not too high.
After all, his current mental strength can be considered strong among those of the same level, but the opponents he faces are all one or even two levels higher than him.
Lu Hao also expressed his helplessness.

Lu Hao opened the panel
[Kill Point Allocation]
[Host: Lu Hao]
[Qi and Blood: 79/1097 calories]
[Mental Strength: 58/379 Hz]
Storage space: 1000 cubic meters
Kill Points: 6027
The kill count has now reached over six thousand.
I've been out for a week now, and I've basically accomplished my goal of going down into the underground cave. Next, I need to go back and temper my muscles and flesh, and then break through to the fourth rank.
Lu Hao estimated that if he used his kill points to continuously restore his blood and qi to temper his muscles and flesh, it would take more than a month, and the kill points consumed would be considerable.
At the same time, Lu Hao also planned to build five bridges between heaven and earth when he broke through to the fourth rank, and directly enter the middle stage of the fourth rank. However, building five bridges between heaven and earth at the same time would consume a lot of blood and energy, as well as a lot of mental energy.
So I'm afraid my six thousand killing points won't be enough. Maybe I'll have to come down again when I reach the peak of the third rank.
Lu Hao shook his head. That would waste too much time, so they would continue hunting here for now.
Try to accumulate around 10,000 kill points, then go back and break through to the middle stage of the fourth rank before coming down.
Lu Hao thought of what the thin-faced man had said about Young Master Mu's situation. Perhaps a group of mid-grade underground martial artists had already entered the meat grinder to search for the murderer.
Fortune favors the bold, and now is a good time to take action. Kill a few fourth-rank enemies and retreat. Now that I have mastered a secret technique, I can escape even if I face a peak fifth-rank enemy.
If we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to encounter so many mid-level martial artists again next time.
Having made his decision, Lu Hao changed direction and walked for about five kilometers before digging a hole to rest, since the injuries from his battle with that fifth-rank enemy hadn't healed yet.
In addition, my Qi and blood and mental energy are now exhausted. Although I can use kill points to recover, it is better to recover on my own when there are no enemies.
……
A day later, Lu Hao had fully recovered. During this time, he had consumed three healing pills, but the most important effect was the life-restoring pill.
Once outside the cave, Lu Hao began to lie in wait, searching for lone fourth- or fifth-rank cave warriors, hoping to accumulate the necessary kill points without attracting attention.
