Path of martial arts: leaked sneak peaks, and discussing thread

[Kunovic]

So I was wondering a few things:
1st:- How to get the option to use the Annihilating Fist (I have already unlocked Tri-Dao and comprehended the Annihilating Fist) in the 3v3?

2nd:- Since I haven't played the game in a while, after the MC extricated the Heavenly Asura art from DQ, unless they spent qi, it felt as if YB kinda ripped us off.

3rd:- I wonder if the one MC sleeps with (on the outing with Wu Dong) is related (betrothed) to He Gang?

1) From that I seen, we can use Annihilation fist 3 times: 2 times against Su twins (before they start to use transformation and when they use formation) only if you don't make Gang help you, and 1 time against Muchen when he cover himself in cocoon after first round against his king form. You also need enough qi for this (150 if I remember correctly)

2) If you just give YB syringe with Asura when yes, he ripped you. But you can extort YB in exchange for syringe. So at best you can get both technique with qi use and a pile of funds if you extort YB

3)Most likely, there simply no other candidates. I also think that Second from tournament is Shu from Dong event (same with who you sleep)

mc sleeps with someone? guide?

You can sleep with Tigress if you have high enough relationship with her, beat 3 clowns in pre expedition event and agree to train her.

You can sleep with Shu (a girl from Dong second event). Help Dong to be accepted in team in first event, agree to go with drink, win bet (be at least MH with high vitality and constitution) and just don't be rude to Shu to sleep with her. And don't use option "sip drink" more than 2 times, otherwise you will get too drunk. Both Dong event accessable from "visit someone" option free roam section and only before expedition

You can sleep Su De if help Guo with restaurant and save his life during expedition, then after expo he will ask for help with Su twins, after this you will meet Su De and can help her complete her art, after this you can sleep with her

You can sleep with Ai if you have high relationship with her and your reputation not demonic. During her visit after expo when she ask MC to sleep with her, say that you like her. After this there a bunch of events, which is pretty easy to follow and at the end you can laid with Ai.

And all these options only for male MC, FemMC can sleep only with Xiwen if I remember correctly

Great update ngl. I didn't expect the pill system to change again but it did and I actually like it. Refining artifacts into qi was also a great addition

No complaints from me this time around.

 

[LuciDio]

What I found to be most interesting in this update was actually the First mini-fight.

Like bro 90+ checks to just not get destroyed and only slightly injure/inconvenience him, and even the Tri-Dao option only makes him consider fighting you seriously. And that's after he gets pummeled by Ruo and Top 1 in the Arena at the same time.

Him fighting Ruo and Tang Bo at the same time when they're going 80-90% of their full power or even more as Ruo told Bo not to hold back is ****ing insane. And even them together only make him kinda winded and slightly injured.

Spoiler: His Name

Yang Gan

is on a completely different level, and he's a Body Refiner. Yeah fighting the spear twins together, winning either right away or fighting them until they ult and then decimating Chu Muchen is still the top feat in my book, but damn I wonder who will get to fight First 1v1, Ruo or us?

Cause right now for all of Ruo's bullshit, even he would struggle immensely one on one with him, and that's without the psychological component.


Edit: Also what the **** is wrong with He Gang? He just saw the MC decimate the strongest pairing of Houtians at the same time, and then destroy and potentially humiliate the top 4 right after and he just goes: "Hmm yeah I can take him easy yeah."

What a ****ing bum.

MC or Ruo going all out against the first would mean death for him. MC has the devil and Ruo has nepotism. When push comes to shove, the devil will take over and dog walk the first. Ruo when pushed too much will swallow his pride and use his nepotools like he did in the update. This is assuming the fact that the first himself doesnt have any ace like the devil or the infamous nepotools.

But that's exactly it. Ruo got clipped once by base First and got folded with his chest caved in. And that's with Tang Bo also doing damage and distracting First.

Also he used his new Celestial form or whatever and Strike Three with multiple other techniques. Even the MC says that sure no one was going apeshit and using everything they had, but then says exactly what you did. That the First also is 100% hiding powers as well.

Besides a 92-96 strength check punch only threw first 20 meters with no visible damage while the same range check (96) completely exploded Su De's Tyrant Form shield technique and sent her into a coma with mortal injuries, so much so that she couldn't even crush her token before being healed by Su Da. And that's no technique just pure strength check.

I have a feeling that the realm annihilating fist could one shot him or atleast bring him close to death of set up properly. Su De had to stack up so much buffs and still MC donut her. It also one shot Chu Muchen with that ice armour of his.

I think Niki did a great job to set up the first's power level. It's not too insane that the MC can never hope to catch up to him and at the same time it's not too close to MC strength either. Its clear that some of the final participants of the tourney are going to be MC, Ruo, First and He Gang if something doesn't happen to him already.

Is Tang Ruo romance still in the cope limbo

He also has his transformation too the lizard one I think the other form he used is different i guess?(I don't even remember Ruo using a form I forgot about it was more focused on mc doing damage with all different options)Or is it the same form the mc does say neither him and the tangs were going all out.Also if I remember correctly the Asura mc was overpowering First so tri dao and Asura to me looked above him.
Also people in poma get their body cooked and broken too easily multiple times in a fight so I don't even think of it as much at this point it isn't like Aura clash where as long as your Aura isn't shattered you don't get your body cooked that badly like in poma martial artists might as well be made of butter with great regeneration

Thanks for the Annihilating Fist guide! I understood your point about the asura syringe thingy but I am saying is that even after we retrieved the DQ part of the art, after getting a diaper from her (wonderful mom), YB would just not give the art to us unless we use deceit and the GS to get it without his permission. I was just kinda miffed and wanted to break his shiny dome as soon as possible.

Also, in the last update I noticed something strange. After we get the first devil against the Demon Execut(ed)ing Squad, Bohai seems to suspect that something is actually pretty fishy about the MC. I think he knows more (or atleast suspects more) about the MC's physique and relation to TW.

Moreover, I also belive that TY is gonna get a nasty surprise in a a little time, for the sect to allow a dragon (who TY killed nearly everyone of) who fights TJ, his grip is probably way more weaker than we thought.

 

[NemotheSecondBorn]

Hey! So how about we all share our theories (anyone and anything) regarding the story up until now?

I'll start. I think it might be Yuan Fang who tried to set up the match of the tourney. From what I've seen, it makes sense for him to put himself in the same team as He Gang and then, at the most opportune moment, throw in the detonation Dao.

Also, what do all of you think of each of the factions? Omniscient Sage, Lady Butterfly, Yue Fang's "Moon Goddess", the Imperials, and even the Omniscient Sage?​

 

[yourstalkeroutside]

And all these options only for male MC, FemMC can sleep only with Xiwen if I remember correctly

I don't recall Xiwen, but you can sleep a random dude in the same Dong event (he even proposes lmao) and the other Su twin. It's pretty dry here. Gonna see if the Xiwen thing is true though, gotta get my body count up.

 

[w3bclaw]

how do you even unlock tri dao? i chose AI's master and now have access to only elemental dao. also regarding that wu dong event when is that in the story and is it even relevant?

Also

Spoiler

First, aka Yang Gan is so strong, my MC intervened his fight and got killed lol

 

[Kunovic]

Hey! So how about we all share our theories (anyone and anything) regarding the story up until now?

My theory is also about Yuan Fang. I think YF was experimented by He family and Rogues together to either learn how to turn MA into cultivators (most likely Body refiners) or to create proper vessel for LB (maybe both). Maybe they even created his corpse physique in first place

Firstly Yuan Fang is extremely hard to kill because of his corpse physique. He survived Mei bomb (after fight with dozens fighters around his level), hold himself ridiculously long again Muchen despite being weaker than even normal PH. His physique is perfect for experiments that can kill any other.

Second, his apparent hate for He Gang and MC can notice greed in his eyes after fight with First (either toward MC or First, maybe both). So he hate He Gang (or just He family) and envious of cultivators.

And lastly he can turn off himself, like he only possessed his body. So maybe Rogues tried to learn how to bind/unbind soul from body.

 

[O1O]

also think that Second from tournament is Shu from Dong event (same with who you sleep)

If this is true...I can't wait to make my MC destroy her annoying a$$

MC would unironically be making He Gang a favor lol

That is a very good theory. It actually makes sense as to why YF would wish to kill HG so much.

Also can somebody tell me what the post-expo cultivation levels correspond to the Houtian-Xiantian-Shangtian scale? My MC was at Qi-Gathering (Greater/Golden Circle) for reference.

Moreover, I have a theory that the rebels actually want to bring Shen Long Mu faster to this world principally because of the assassination attempt on the MC. From what we gathered it was the Unseen Darkness that tried to kill us, but, if someone who was powerful/resourceful enough to mimic Elder Ping's energy signature, then why would they only hire the lowest 'grade' assassins? I believe that it was an attempt, a successful one at that, to ingratiate Caihong into the whole mess deeper. Although she has been fighting the Tangs before, now she actually gets much deeper into the politics and factions, especially the MC, whose position allows them the greatest impact on the faction of their choosing.

Sorry for the long text, just have a lot of thoughts about the story and the world.

 

[Gone_Dead]

I mean, she was way stronger than MC during that event. We were LH and she casually breaks our arm or something and runs away. Idk about others but I my MC in general doesnt like secretive arrogant morons. So she's gonna be qi food if we get the chance.

 

[sevyrex]

I don't understand why some people wants to kill Shu? She's pretty chill with us unless deliberately provoked, her arrogance is only aimed at mortals/peasants and that's normal in-universe behaviour for most characters.

She's definitely working for the rogues, and since we haven't got lore revealed or established allegiance pre expo, her being secretive about some stuff is to be expected.

Just treat her like a one night stand benefit from Nicky. Mei is a constant tease, Ai is frozen, Tigress is sidelined, Ruo will suck his sword first before ever kissing MC, Xiwen only has the boat date with FeMC. Let our poor MC have some fun, his world is barren enough as it is

If you try to get along with her but dont bend over backwards for her, she gets angry and acts like she owns us. She's a egomaniac who wont take no for an answer. Thats plenty reason. Evil MC's kill people for far less.

You mean during the dance part? Cause the only option there was to either play along or embarass her in front of a crowd. I usually don't go for the dance unless I'm determined to go all the way with her.

When I play evil mc, I never unlock the 2nd Wu Dong visit cause I just bullied him all the way
