I Stack Attributes in the Apocalypse

Chapter 154: The Desperate State, Lu Ming!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was different from the explosive increase in size brought about by additional points.

At this moment, Lu Ming’s expansion was more like a transformation in form —similar to blowing up a deflated balloon.

His originally three-meter body rapidly grew larger, and surging waves of heat gushed out from every pore on his body, enveloping him in a misty, white haze.

His clothes began to tear.

Soon, Lu Ming’s body size grew to about five meters.

The sculpted muscles spread across Lu Ming’s body resembled the work of a skilled sculptor, trembling with every breath he took!

His eyes, the size of bronze bells, were fixed on Apulan, making Apulan swallow hard.

He really wanted to ask, “What kind of freak is this?!”

In his explosive state, Lu Ming felt very good.

The doubled attributes made Lu Ming feel that his entire body was filled with strength.

Looking at Apulan, he saw Apulan hopped two steps back on one foot, while Amang approached Apulan with a solemn expression.

“1 underestimated you…”

Amang first admitted his mistake before saying,

“Apulan is not your match. Now, 1’11 be your opponent… Huh”

Amang did not finish what he wanted to say.

This was because he saw Lu Ming in front of him suddenly let out a furious roar!

That roar was as terrifying as a dragon.

In the next second, Lu Ming’s body underwent another transformation!

Using only the Explosive State is not enough.

As mentioned before, Lu Ming did not pursue an equal match but a complete and utter crush!

At this moment, Lu Ming did not want to advance further, so he simply went all out and used his most powerful killing move—the Desperate State!

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, boundless power surged within Lu Ming’s body!

Inside his body, the mystery factors in his cells began to boil and fused deeper with the cells in Lu Ming’s body at an incredibly fast speed!

It was different from the mystery factor fusion phenomenon that occurred when cultivating the Body Forging Technique.

The fusion of the Desperate State was even simpler and more violent!

Pain!

Lu Ming felt the pain in his body.

However, he could endure this pain.

After a brief and somewhat faint discomfort, Lu Ming felt his body undergoing a tremendous change!

His bones emitted a deeper explosion.

Every bone in Lu Ming’s body began to grow larger, stronger, and more resilient!

The bone marrow responsible for blood production surged with activity, sending new and stronger blood flowing to every part of Lu Ming’s body.

Lu Ming felt as if his blood had turned into magma.

A burning sensation kept rising from every part of his body.

He had further muscle growth, and his skin became even tougher.

His vision became higher and higher—this was the effect of his body growing once again.

Soon, Lu Ming’s entire body had expanded to a size of ten meters!

Phew.”

A heavy, bellows-like sound emanated from Lu Ming’s mouth, accompanied by a rush of scorching hot air.

Lu Ming could feel that his body was under great strain – this meant that he could only maintain the Desperate State for a short time.

But that did not matter…

Compared to the power brought about by the Desperate State, the duration did not matter at all!

Suddenly, a tingling sensation emerged from his ribs, prompting Lu Ming to lower his head and look at his upper body.

He saw that between his ribs, two pairs of additional arms extended out, clenching and swinging his fists, and causing a series of sonic booms at his will!

Having four more arms made Lu Ming feel a little strange.

But upon further consideration, Lu Ming felt it was better this way – the additional arms meant more attack points and defense points.

At this moment, Lu Ming vaguely had a deeper understanding of his superpower.

“Body Self-Limitation.”

A more perfect body and easier to mobilize every trace of strength in the body.”This might mean that 1 can change my body form…”

Thinking of this, a crack suddenly appeared on both sides of Lu Ming’s temples, and two eyeballs floated out from the crack, constantly scanning in all directions.

He had no blind spot in his vision.

On his body, his muscles were contorted, and his skin gradually turned from light yellow to dark gray.

His physical defense had increased to another level.

Lu Ming did not know if this optimization of the body could only be used in the Desperate State.

After settling the matter in front of him, Lu Ming would also try it in his Self-limitation State, Conventional State, and Explosive State.

The development of his superpowers was suspended – because the time in the Desperate State was limited, Lu Ming had more important matters to attend to.

Maintaining this ten-meter-high, four-eyed, six-armed, gray-skinned state… Lu Ming slowly lowered his head and looked at Amang.

He saw Amang’s face filled with fear, unconsciously retreating two steps.

What… kind of monster is this?!”

No doubt about it.

The moment Lu Ming activated the Desperate State, this was the only thought in everyone’s minds!

The Black Feather Tribe members were dumbfounded…

Now, they were at a loss… They did not quite understand what was going on with this person.

Bai Tianyu, Huo Sheng, and the others were also stunned.

Was this still Brother Lu?

Was he even human?!

“He’s not a human. He’s a god!”

Only Zhang Chengcheng’s eyes were shining brightly, and her gaze at Lu Ming remained unwavering.

She was definitely Lu Ming’s most loyal fan.

Veto and Fala were also at a loss.

Looking at the ten-meter-tall giant in the distance, Velo’s lips moved, but he could not utter a word for a long time.

He did not know how to evaluate Lu Ming…

High talent? That was for sure.

Hardworking? That was also true.

But your current appearance clearly could not be explained by talent and hard work anymore.

“Superpower? I’ve never seen such a superpower…”

However, Lu Ming did not care about other people’s opinions.

Lu Ming gently moved his shoulders and grinned at Amang.

His deep voice resounded in the ears of Amang and the other members of the Black Feather Tribe.

“You forced me!”

“Now, enjoy the results of your actions!”

He took a step forward, and then all six arms swung into action!

Perfect Level Explosive Fist! *6!

The Desperate State increased Lu Ming’s attributes fivefold!

The current basic attributes of the Level 2 Lu Ming were:

Strength: 15067.4

Physique: 15067.2

Agility: 15085.4

The fivefold increase was:

Strength: 75337

Physique: 75336

Agility: 75427

With such attributes, so what if he was comparable to a Body Realm expert?

Fala had a say in this!

The moment Lu Ming raised his leg and charged at the Black Feather Tribe, Fala’s beautiful face froze in astonishment.

She vaguely recalled Velo’s teachings.

“In the Mortal Realm and the ordinary realm, based on different races, strengths also vary.”

For example, the average physical fitness of an ordinary human was 5.

For the Spirit Tribe, it was 7.

According to the theory of an Awakened person’s attributes doubling, a Mortal Realm Level 9 human’s physical fitness would be 2,560, while for the Spirit Tribe, it would be 3,584.

The individual strength among the Spirit Tribe indeed surpassed that of humans.

“But after reaching the Body Realm, the advantage of one’s race is not as significant.”

“Because breaking through from the Mortal Realm to the Body Realm, regardless of race, the only way is to refine the body to perfection – using body forging techniques.”

And this so-called perfection is when the three-dimensional attributes reach 5000!

The 5,000 three-dimensional attributes was the limit of Level 9 of the Mortal Realm. Once one’s attributes reached 5,000, one could naturally reach the Physique Realm Level 1. From Level 9 Mortal Realm to Level 1 of the Physique Realm, the theory of double attributes still applied.

In other words, other than Body Forging Technique and Source Power Skills, the physical fitness of Level 1 experts of the Physique Realm was uniformly 10,000 points.

Physique Realm Level 2 was 20,000.

Physique Realm Level 3 was 40,000.

This meant that Velo’s strength was at most around 50,000 points.

Amang was even weaker than him!

The Mortal Realm reversing to surpass the Physique Realm was something Fala had never heard of.

This was publicly acknowledged to be impossible in the entire Black Mist Zone!

And now, an unadulterated scene unfolded before her eyes..
