Chapter 36: Tomb of the Fighting God
“Martial Skills: Monkey Leap (+).”
【Stage: Not yet initiated.】
Su Wen focused his thoughts, and the martial skills section began to change.
He wasn’t sure if the improvements in his current strength would also benefit his “future self” during the manhunt in the future timeline.
But since the narration gave a hint, it was worth a shot.
“Martial Skills: Monkey Leap (+).”
【Initiation Stage: Entering the path of initiation, subtle agility and true essence are contained within the leaps.】
Suddenly, Su Wen stood up and said to the Fighting God, “Brother Fighting God, I’ve gained some insights from observing monkeys jump, and I’ve developed a movement technique. Let me show you.”
After enhancing the Monkey Leap martial skill, a faint sense of agility filled his heart, making him eager to test it out.
After all, this was his office, and the Fighting God was just sitting there chatting with him.
With nothing else to do, it seemed perfectly reasonable to put on a little performance, right?
“Go ahead, show me what you’ve got!”
The Fighting God chuckled and gestured for him to begin.
At his words, Su Wen started leaping around, his figure flickering with an elegant fluidity.
“Not bad.”
The Fighting God’s eyes lit up, and he watched closely.
The movement technique and speed weren’t anything extraordinary.
What really caught his attention were the energy waves generated by the technique.
It seemed the God of Wealth’s mention of a performance wasn’t just talk—this was the real deal.
【Oh, God of Wealth from the past timeline! The mysterious forces of Time and Space act upon you, resolving your regrets as the memories of the Monkey Leap martial skill echo in your mind.】
【Using the Monkey Leap martial skill, dodging the attacks of the giant bugs becomes much more agile.】
【It seems the giant bugs have noticed your change and slowly stopped their pursuit. Just when you think they’re about to give up, one giant bug lets out a strange cry into the sky.】
【In an instant, the ground begins to shake, and several giant bugs from nearby rush toward your location.】
【Oh, God of Wealth, plagued by misfortune! You’ve come from the past to the future, a timeline you don’t belong to, yet you’ve dared to kill so recklessly. Now, you’re facing the consequences.】
【You might be confident in evading one giant bug, but if several surround you at once, your current level of movement technique won’t be enough to survive.】
【And so, you begin to regret once more, wishing you had trained your movement martial skill to a higher level in the past.】
Su Wen: “……”
The message was clear.
I can’t hold out much longer—I need to spend some money, fast!
In the next moment, Su Wen focused his thoughts again, and the martial skills section changed once more.
“Martial Skills: Monkey Leap.”
【Proficient Stage: Mastery achieved, subtle agility and true essence contained in the leaps, combined with the gathering of energy, allows one to leap like a spirit monkey, greatly increasing speed.】
The moment Su Wen upgraded his Monkey Leap, Fighting God’s expression changed slightly.
What the heck!
How did Brother God of Wealth start bouncing around and feeling things?
Is this… an epiphany?
At his level, he could easily see the noticeable improvement in Su Wen’s movement technique. What was once smooth had become silky.
“Brother God of Wealth, this monkey-like movement technique is much more suitable for jumping in the jungle.”
Fighting God said with a smile, “Jumping around in the office can be a bit restricting for you.”
“We have an underground training ground, which is much more suited for you. Do you want to go?”
Su Wen replied, “No need, I just want to jump around a bit.”
Fighting God shook his head with a smile and quietly murmured, “Just jumping around… and he’s having an epiphany, that’s pretty casual.”
“No worries, I can take you there directly!”
As he spoke, the space around them changed.
The moment Su Wen landed from the air, he found himself in the underground jungle training ground, having left the God of Wealth’s office.
“Only in the jungle can your movement technique truly shine!”
Fighting God said, “Moreover, this place has full recording, so after you finish jumping, you can review the footage and see if there are any issues with your movements.”
Su Wen looked ahead at the jungle training ground, didn’t have time for reflection, and jumped right in, starting to truly unleash the speed of the Monkey Leap martial skill.
He wanted to see just how fast he could go using Monkey Leap at full power!
“This movement technique of the God of Wealth fits quite well with the foundational Body Refinement Technique.”
A flash of starlight appeared, and Star God suddenly emerged.
“You have been watching the God of Wealth closely?”
Fighting God asked, furrowing his brow as he looked at Star God.
Star God didn’t answer Fighting God’s question, instead quietly observing Su Wen’s movements in the training ground.
“Do you care about the God of Wealth, or are you worried about him?”
Fighting God continued asking, “Weren’t you busy repairing the great formation recently? You didn’t even have time to explore the Arrow Realm, yet you still find time to keep such a close watch on him?”
After a moment, Star God replied, “The God of Wealth is very important; he cannot afford to face any trouble!”
“I can see that.”
“I’ll calculate this movement technique. You take your time talking with the God of Wealth.”
With that, Star God’s figure vanished from sight.
“Very busy!”
Fighting God sighed, “I was thinking about having a dinner gathering tonight!”
“To be this busy and still monitor every move of the God of Wealth, has Star God calculated something?”
“Or is it related to that special energy?”
“Hmm… it does seem like an energy that emerges automatically as the body grows stronger, somewhat similar to Life Force.”
“The God of Wealth is becoming more interesting.”
Meanwhile, on the other side.
【Oh, God of Wealth who loves to regret! Your regrets have received help from the past timeline, and with the power of time and space, your movements have become more fluid.】
【As several giant bugs approached you and surrounded you, you cleverly dodged with your silky movements, skillfully squeezing through holes whenever you could.】
【Finally, through your relentless efforts, you successfully angered the giant bugs, leading them to summon more of their kind.】
【Awkward God of Wealth! You know well that if the giant bugs surround you from all directions, even your excellent movement technique won’t give you a chance to escape.】
【In a moment of helplessness, you fully stimulated the power of energy and blood, enhancing your agility with the true essence.】
【In an instant, your speed surged.】
【As you sprinted at high speed, you began to jump wildly, quickly shaking off the pursuit of the giant bugs.】
【But unfortunately, it seemed like you had stumbled into an unknown place, dark and shadowy, filled with eerie sounds that made you feel a chilling fear.】
【Confused God of Wealth! You have escaped the wolf’s den only to enter the tiger’s lair, and this sinister place seems even more dangerous than being surrounded by giant bugs.】
【As you carefully moved forward, it felt like a voice was continuously calling to you.】
【Following the voice, you looked to the left front, and there, you saw a broken tombstone, with some words barely visible.】
【The first four big characters to catch your eye were: Tomb of the Fighting God!】
