Chapter 150: Skill Exchange
“Fighting one against a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals alone? Sounds so cool.” Xing’s eyes lit up, and she had already begun imagining how cool she would be if she did it.
“Had no choice but to do it, almost got drained to death by the Lieyang Heavenly Dao.” Sun Wukong gave a wry smile. Who could blame Blue Star for having no other guardians?
“That monkey… Sun Wukong, how strong are you?” Xing asked curiously.
“Not sure. Besides Lieyang, I haven’t fought gods or anything from other civilizations. Anyway, in a one-on-one fight, no one in Lieyang is my opponent. Back then, I killed quite a few of the four great heavenly generals.” Sun Wukong smiled smugly.
“Much stronger than the current Yan, and Monkey Brother is in beast body, no fancy tricks, his main body combat power is extremely strong. Seems like he has some black technology on him too, gets stronger when facing the strong, upper limit unknown.” Meng Huaifeng said.
“Little kid, hands itchy?” Sun Wukong asked.
Xing nodded repeatedly and issued a challenge: “Wanna fight?”
“Your old Sun hasn’t fought in a few hundred years, my bones are about to rust, yeah, hands are a bit itchy. After dealing with those Xiong Bing Lian kids, we’ll have a fight.” Sun Wukong agreed.
Xing glanced at the battlefield and reminded: “Sun Wukong, your clone seems to be struggling.”
At the foot of the mountain, Xiong Bing Lian had Sun Wukong’s clone on the ropes. They coordinated seamlessly with each other, providing timely support, preventing the clone from focusing fire on anyone. Up to now, everyone was in good condition and seemed to have plenty of spare capacity.
“This won’t do. If they win, won’t their tails go up to the sky? Little kids need more beatings.” Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes: “I’ll go personally. Later, I’ll give that little punk some extra beating. Please don’t interfere, everyone.”
“We’ve beaten Liu Chuang many times already, don’t go too hard.” Meng Huaifeng looked at the bravely fighting Liu Chuang with a bit of pity.
“Got it.” Sun Wukong nodded and turned into a streak of golden light shooting toward the battlefield.
The clone leaped into the air and merged with the rapidly approaching Sun Wukong, as if they had been one person from the start. Only Qilin vaguely noticed something off, but couldn’t pinpoint exactly what.
Sun Wukong descended from the sky, swinging his staff down. Ge Xiaolun raised his sword to block, and instantly got planted underground over ten meters deep like a nail.
Zhao Xin charged out from behind Sun Wukong like lightning, his spear thrusting like a dragon toward Sun Wukong’s rear.
The Golden Cudgel extended backward, swinging its body to send Zhao Xin flying.
“Damn, something’s wrong. How did Monkey Brother’s speed and power suddenly increase so much?” Zhao Xin spat out a mouthful of blood, his body badly damaged, and struggled to get up.
Seeing his clone beaten so badly by Xiong Bing Lian, Sun Wukong seemed to feel he was losing face in front of the train crew.
Before Xiong Bing Lian could react, he took them all down in three moves and two gestures.
“You’re all pretty good, almost beat my clone. Impressive.” Sun Wukong stopped attacking and praised them.
“The one we fought before was just a clone?” Ge Xiaolun crawled out from underground.
“Monkey Brother can communicate now. Was he testing us before?”
Xiong Bing Lian slowly gathered together.
“I recognize you all, but one person is an exception.”
Sun Wukong walked into Xiong Bing Lian, throwing out Liu Chuang who thought he had gotten Monkey Brother’s recognition and was full of excitement.
After getting beaten by his idol, Liu Chuang thoroughly repented. After a string of oaths, his entire spirit and energy changed.
The test for Xiong Bing Lian ended. Xing and Sun Wukong headed to the back of the Moon for a head-on clash.
At first, Xing had the upper hand, but as Sun Wukong started using the black technology loaded in his super gene, the two gradually became evenly matched.
Baseball Bat VS Golden Cudgel.
Power of Preservation VS Indestructible Diamond Body（ Tech Version）.
Heaven and Earth Manifestation VS Heaven and Earth Manifestation（ Tech Version）.
Destruction Power VS Three Heads Six Arms（ Tech Version）.
Sun Wukong also had Fiery Eyes Golden Gaze, Clone Technique, and a series of black technology, barely making up the gap with Xing.
Xing still had some spare energy left, while Sun Wukong was low on energy, unclear if he had gone all out.
Blue Star lacked resources, and Sun Wukong didn’t want to waste all his energy on sparring. After exchanging a few moves, under Xing’s lingering gaze, he chose to concede.
“Monkey Brother, can you teach me that clone technique of yours?”
After the two finished fighting, Meng Huaifeng couldn’t help but ask.
Lately, there were too many things to research, and he felt like he didn’t have enough time, almost no time left to go pioneering.
Pioneering was the foundation of him becoming stronger. Other research was just icing on the cake, enriching his arsenal.
If he had a clone skill, it should greatly reduce his burden.
“If you want to learn, I don’t mind teaching, but I only know how to use it myself. I’m not clear on the principle of the skill and can’t teach it to others.” Sun Wukong said with some regret.
This was the limitation of tech gods. If you didn’t develop it yourself, you really could only use it.
“As long as Monkey Brother is willing to teach, I should have a way to learn it.” Meng Huaifeng said.
“Then go ahead and learn. If you see other skills you like, learn those too. As long as you use it for the righteous path.” Sun Wukong said without hesitation.
“Thanks a lot, Monkey Brother.”
Meng Huaifeng tried using pirated Bluetooth Transmission to learn Sun Wukong’s skills, but was blocked by the firewall built into Sun Wukong’s body.
Looks like he still needed the original version.
Aha’s blessing effect with Bluetooth Transmission was that when receiving someone else’s ability, you also had to transmit one of your own abilities to the other party. The transmission stealth had been improved.
Improved transmission stealth should bypass the firewall.
Meng Huaifeng used his soul skill and successfully saw Sun Wukong’s skill information.
Meng Huaifeng selected Clone Technique, hesitated for a moment, and also selected Heaven and Earth Manifestation.
Having learned such useful abilities from Sun Wukong, he couldn’t be stingy either.
Meng Huaifeng uploaded the energy circuit of the Song of Souls he had analyzed, and also uploaded the energy circuit of Quantum Leap.
Begin the exchange!
Meng Huaifeng’s mobile phone martial spirit gained the Clone Technique and Heaven and Earth Manifestation software. As long as he activated them, he could use them.
Song of Souls and Quantum Leap were also mounted on Sun Wukong’s super gene like software programs, usable anytime like the other black technology.
“Hm?” Only after the transmission was complete did Sun Wukong notice.
“I suddenly have two extra abilities. Little kid, did you give them to me?” Sun Wukong looked at Meng Huaifeng and asked.
“Yeah, it would be rude to take without giving back. How could I just learn Monkey Brother’s skills for free?” Meng Huaifeng nodded.
“It’s not for free. Your aid to Blue Star is worth more than just two skills. Blue Star can’t repay you much. For you to gain something from me puts my mind at ease.” Sun Wukong looked at Meng Huaifeng with relief.
Before gaining these two skills, he hadn’t noticed a thing. They could have quietly taken all his skills without a sound.
Yet they still asked for his permission and gave him two skills in return.
All good kids.
“We actually don’t care about rewards.” Meng Huaifeng said.
“Did you manage to learn it?”
“Learned it. Clone Technique, Heaven and Earth Manifestation.”
As Meng Huaifeng spoke, he plucked out a hair and tossed it, turning it into another him.
His body flickered and became a giant over ten meters tall.
“You’re not as big as me.”
Xing grew big again, dozens of meters tall. She reached out and compared on Meng Huaifeng’s head, only reaching her thigh.
“Monkey Brother’s Heaven and Earth Manifestation is probably based on his super gene to take effect. Although my mobile phone martial spirit can use imaginary energy to cast it, it’s not that compatible after all, power is much weaker. But no problem, once I analyze the principle clearly, I can tailor it.” Meng Huaifeng slapped away Xing’s hand and analyzed.
Meng Huaifeng returned to his original size and said to Sun Wukong: “Monkey Brother, wanna try the skills I gave you?”
“Let’s try.” Sun Wukong stepped out, accompanied by a burst of purple light, appearing hundreds of meters away.
Another step, back to the original position.
“Fewer steps to deconstruct the body than Micro Wormhole Technology, efficiency at least doubled, low consumption.” Sun Wukong evaluated, then activated the other skill.
“Monkey Brother, Monkey Brother, you’re amazing. The five-element great mountain can’t hold you down, out pops Sun Xingzhe…”
Loud music spread from Sun Wukong’s body. Sun Wukong’s mouth twitched slightly, then he froze.
“Physical qualities strengthened, power, speed, defense all boosted by sixty percent.” Sun Wukong said, somewhat shocked.
As individual strength increases, the amplification ratio of Song of Minds gets lower and lower, far from the high boosts when still weak, but the overall enhanced values actually keep rising.
“I preset all of Monkey Brother’s background music. If Monkey Brother doesn’t like it, you can add your own.” Meng Huaifeng said with a wink.
“Background music! Huai Feng, I want it too!” Xing rushed over, grabbed Meng Huaifeng’s shoulder, and shook him wildly.
“Slow down, slow down, gonna get dizzy.” Meng Huaifeng said hurriedly.
“You had this good stuff and didn’t teach me before. Too much!” Xing said, puffed up.
Phones can play BGM too, but putting the phone outside during battle makes it easy to destroy, so it has to be stored in ticket space.
Storing in space means no BGM, and playing BGM outside battle is pointless.
“It’s not that I didn’t teach you, it’s that the hard conditions don’t allow it. Like Dan Heng’s Cloud Chant Technique, even if I learn it, I can’t use it fully without the Vidhyadhara immortal bloodline.”
“Song of Souls exists based on my mobile phone martial spirit. Monkey Brother can use it because he has a dark matter computer in his body, but you have nothing in yours. If you want to use it, you’d have to control it mentally all the time, very troublesome, effect greatly weakened, just like my Heaven and Earth Manifestation.” Meng Huaifeng explained.
“I don’t care, I want it, even if no effect, as long as I can play BGM. Good Huai Feng, please.” Xing used both soft and hard tactics, her golden pupils watery as she looked at Meng Huaifeng.
Deadly!
“Alright, alright. I’ll swap your Heaven and Earth Manifestation then. Perfect for researching the differences between yours and Monkey Brother’s, combine the strengths to create an even stronger skill.” Meng Huaifeng reluctantly agreed.
“Anything, hurry up.” Xing urged impatiently.
Meng Huaifeng used Bluetooth Transmission to swap Song of Souls and Xing’s Heaven and Earth Manifestation.
The method to cast Song of Souls appeared in Xing’s mind, but unlike Monkey Brother who could activate and use it directly, Xing struggled for a long time, head swelling, but couldn’t cast it.
By the time she finally completed the energy circuit, Xing didn’t dare to divide her attention for a moment, because as the song changed, the energy circuit was constantly making minute adjustments.
Using a computer to maintain it is very simple, controlling with the human brain is just bitterly forcing it.
The group returned to Blue Star, and Sun Wukong went to report to Xiong Bing Lian.
Meng Huaifeng sent his clone to research the first generation super gene, while he himself began analyzing the principles and differences of the two Heaven and Earth Manifestations.
After March 7th fed the giant panda, she started sword practice. No matter how long passes in the other world, only one day passes back home. Next time she sees Master Jingliu and nephew Yan Qing, she’ll definitely shock them!
To get super cool BGM during battle, Xing gritted her teeth and persisted in learning Song of Souls.
The wild fire’s song was intermittent, with zero strength boost effect.
Even if Xing mastered this song, switching to another background music would probably fail immediately.
……
Dan Heng had arrived near Lieyang Civilization. Himeko bid farewell to the dual queens of Angel Civilization.
“Miss Himeko, although we’ve learned quite a bit about the unknown universe from you, once the known universe connects with the unknown universe, we angels also need to understand it personally. Could we let one angel board the train to experience the unknown universe firsthand?” Kaisa asked solemnly.
“The Stellar Train won’t refuse anyone boarding.” Himeko said.
As long as they’re not from Destruction Legion, Abundant Evil Creatures, evil gods, or other irredeemable types.
Those guys aren’t even people.
“Good then. When the train connects the universe, I’ll go personally to observe the ceremony.” Kaisa said.
No need to be so formal. Himeko thought to herself, but still agreed.
Himeko’s group connected to the realm anchor on the train and disappeared from Angel Nebula.
“Wonder if I’ll get glanced at by the Aeon of Knowledge by then and become a genius certified by an Aeon.” Huxi said curiously.
“Don’t hold too much hope. The unknown universe is far larger than the known universe. Over countless years, only over eighty geniuses.” Kaisa calmly shot down.
“Buzzkill, tomboy. Can’t you say something nice?” Huxi rolled her eyes at her.
“No matter how nicely put, it won’t change the facts.” Kaisa said.
“Hmph, when I become the Envoy of Knowledge, first thing I’ll do is kick you off the throne.” Huxi used a micro wormhole to transport back to the laboratory.
Kaisa shook her head lightly. She knew it was just Huxi’s joking words.
Kaisa connected to Angel Yan.
“Queen, any orders?”
“Return to Angel Nebula immediately. I have a mission for you.” Kaisa said.
“Yes, Queen.”
Kaisa looked up at the deep starry sky. Angel Civilization had amassed so many resources; it was time to use them.
Hadn’t used them before out of fear that developing the civilization to the threshold would bring the void early.
Now, angels needed stronger power to meet the impact of the unknown universe.
Though the train crew made promises, some things were beyond their control.
Angels must prepare for a rainy day.
Last recommendation effect was pretty good. Edited with a lot of enthusiasm. They proactively asked me to write a monthly ticket side story, release at 1 AM on October 1st, aim for the monthly ticket list. Seems like you can read it just with monthly tickets? First time posting, I don’t know either.
Anyway, I’ve saved up over five thousand words of monthly ticket side story these past few days. Available at midnight on October 1st. It’s a lighthearted daily life side story where future Meng Huaifeng brings the train crew back to his own world. Hope everyone supports it.
