The Peerless Emperor

Chapter 56: Enhancement

When breaking through to the Nirvana Stage, the attributes of each Martial Soul were different. Sometimes, strange characteristics could appear.

While there was a wide plethora, the attributes of each Martial Soul had been mostly recorded. From there, they were divided into tiers according to their strengths.

According to the attributes, they were sorted into four tiers of A, B, C, and D. Within each level, they were further divided into three levels.

For example, Lei Qian’s Martial Soul attribute, Paralysis, was Upper C Tier. While it may not be high ranking, his grandfather, Lei Heng, was already overjoyed for days.

After all, the Thunder King himself only had a Middle C Tier attribute.

For his own Grandson to break through when he managed to finish 8 Round Nirvana, and even awaken an Upper C Tier attribute was a pleasant and massive surprise for him. Nothing could be better than having a talented grandson that met expectations.

On the other hand, Lin Qian, who had finished the unprecedented 12 Round Nirvana, awakened Enhancement as his Martial Soul Attribute?

Enhancement. It boosted a specific aspect of the Soul Practitioner’s abilities, be it Soul Energy, Physique, Hearing Sensitivity or maybe Optical Distance. Moreover, the power-up was only up to 10-20%.

If the Practitioner was lucky, their Soul Energy or physique would be enhanced. In that case, at least their combat abilities would be brought up a notch. Within the Universal Phenomenon Sect, there was an acquaintance of Lei Qian within the Inner Sect that also had Enhancement as his Attribute. However, it was an enhancement for his hair growth, making it practically useless.

As such, the Attribute of Enhancement could only barely be counted as Mid D Tier, if it enhanced the Practitioner’s Soul Energy or Physique.

If like Lei Qian’s acquaintance’s Attribute, enhancing the growth rate of hair, it would be a Lower D Tier Attribute, the worst of all.

“It’s alright. So what if your Martial Soul Attribute is Enhancement. I believe that even without relying on the help of Martial Soul Attribute, you would be ahead of your peers.” Wei Wushuang patted Lin Qian’s shoulders, comforting him warmly.

Lei Qian, who was next to him, also persuaded: “Boss, it is best not to tell others about your Martial Soul Attribute. It would be detrimental to your image.”

“Is Enhancement really that weak? But I feel like it’s mighty…” looking at the overflowing pity from their two faces, Lin Qian was perplexed and asked.

“You think it isn’t weak? Then, tell me, what is the use of your Enhancement?” When Lin Qian proposed the contrary, he piqued Wei Wushuang’s interest.

Thinking more, he realised his disciple was the monster that finished 12 Rounds Nirvana. Even if his Martial Soul attribute was Enhancement, it might be an extraordinary Enhancement.

“As long as I activate my Crimson Gold Soul Energy, the Martial Soul Attribute would also be unleashed. It would then boost my physique by 5 times.” As he spoke, a Crimson Gold Lightning instantly flashed out, entangling around his body.

HA!

Pulling back his fist, Lin Qian lightly breathed out and bullet his fist into the air.

Without a single trace of Soul Energy, the punch consisted of the air with pure physical strength.

By the sheer force of the punch, the air at the tip of his fist rocketed forward, morphing into a formless fist. The invisible force rushed straight passed Lei Qian, missing him by a hair width and crashed into the area behind.

Boom!

As the massive collision reverberated through the air, Lei Qian eyes widened till it almost popped. Hearing the crushing impact, he took a huge gulp as he turned to take a look.

As the sight entered his widened eyes, his gasped in disbelief.

The walls of the mansion had collapsed, leaving a humongous circular hole drilled in its center.

On the ground, a vast dust cloud had whipped up. As it cleared he could see a trench one metre wide, extending from the walls of the mansion outwards.

Pulling back his Soul Energy into his body, Lin Qian shrugged and relaxed his shoulders. He smiled cheekily at Wei Wushuang and Lei Qian, “Teacher, Lei Qian, how is it? It’s so powerful, right? I don’t see why you all think that this amazing ability is trash.” As he spoke, several other punches whistled through the air, sending a few twirling little vortexes shooting from his fist.

While it was powerful, the punches still dulled in comparison to Soul Energy laden attacks.

“Boss, you are kidding, right? This is your enhanced ability?” Sometime later, Lei Qian finally shook off his amazement, asking falteringly.

Looking at the stupefied expression on Lei Qian, Lin Qian was confused, “Isn’t it normal to know the name and effects of the Martial Soul attribute after breaking into Nirvana Stage?”

“But … this is not in the same grade as the enhancements we know!” Lei Qian stared with eyes of disbelief, wailing aloud.

Beside the exclaiming man, Wei Wushuang cupped his face as his head shook, “Let me calm down first. Lei Kid, tell him about it.”

Quickly, Lei Qian briefed Lin Qian about the attributes, the Tier system, and what their understanding of the enhancement attribute was.

Gaining the full understanding, eureka struck Lin Qian, immediately bursting into a peal of insane laughter, “HAHAHA, Enhancement of Hair Growth? How many Rounds Nirvana did this poor man finish?”

Lei Qian’s lips twitched unhappily, “when he was 18, he didn’t even complete 1 Round. In the end, he broke through at 19. A common man like him is never going to compare with a monster like you boss!”

“Leaving aside the name of your Enhancement, and only considering the effects, this Attribute of yours would easily be Upper A Tier!” Moments later, Wei Wushuang finally pulled his thoughts together and said.

As though he could understand the highest-ranking, Lei Qian nodded profoundly. A fivefold power-up, that was a severe monstrosity.

Besides, Lin Qian had already possessed a terrifyingly sturdy body. With the additional boost, his powers were magnified to a seriously exceptional level.

Without the use of Soul Energy, the shockwave from his fist bulldozed a three metre wide gulley after demolishing the thick concrete walls of the mansion. What’s more, the wall was cast from a heavy-duty white cobblestone. In the past, they had even strengthened it through the tactful hand of ironsmiths.

“As I broke through, I have also awakened a Martial Soul Element.” Just as Wei Wushuang and Lei Qianwere chattering non-stop, holding Lin Qian’s Martial Soul Attribute in high praise, this addendum also threw the duo off their feet.

A royal yellow-gold Soul Energy emerged from Lin Qian’s body. From the skies, a dominating and tyrannical Regal Pressure crushed.

This was the Authority of a Ruler. Moments ago, they had felt a hint of it radiating from Lin Qian, just not as overbearing as before.

At this time, Wei Wushuang and Lei Qian came to understand the changes that had previously happened in the room. The domineering presence they felt was from Lin Qian awakening the Martial Soul Attributes and also the Soul Energy Element.

“Gods, did you give me this disciple, to deliberately provoke me?” Seeing the bright yellow Soul Energy on Lin Qian, Wei Wushuang sighed, “Here I was worried that you failed to breakthrough. Looks like it was really stupid of me.”

“How could a freak like you even fail?”

After he spoke, Wei Wushuang immediately returned to his room, starting his own cultivation and restoration of his health. The initial poisoning he suffered had caused much more significant damage than he anticipated.

“Hey! What Teacher calls his own disciple a freak!” Lin Qian unhappily snorted and pouted at the man leaving the courtyard.

“Forget it, I shall keep the existence of the Sky Piercing Blade to myself for now…I think this old guy won’t be able to sustain another shock.” Looking at the door closed of Wei Wushuang, Lin Qian thought silently as he stared at his palms.

Back in his room, Wei Wushuang’s face lit up with a smile of relief. Unbeknownst to him, this freak apprentice of a monster even amongst the Otherworldly Races and other tribes.

Known to him, Lin Qian Tempestuous Night Blade had awakened the Attribute Enhancement, strengthening his physique by five times.

What was unknown to Wei Wushuang and Lei Qian was the second Martial Soul, the Sky Piercing Blade. This sword had also awakened Enhancement. Just that this time, it boosted his Soul Energy by five times!
