Complete Martial Arts Attributes

2013 Naga Race!

After collecting all the attribute bubbles, Wang Teng's strength received a significant boost.

The saying goes, "Happiness brightens one's spirit!"

At this moment, he appeared refreshed, his eyes beaming, and he looked toward Wan Dong and the others with a smile.

Wan Dong and the others were still unaware of the benefits Wang Teng had gained during the recent battle. Seeing his cheerful expression, they instinctively felt that he might be up to something again, causing them to unconsciously take a step back.

Individuals like Wan Dong and Cob, who had been running around at Wang Teng's command during the previous battle, were even more wary of him. They retreated several steps, hiding behind the group, hoping Wang Teng wouldn't notice them.

However, their movements were indeed seen by Wang Teng, and they exchanged awkward glances, displaying a hint of embarrassment on their faces.

A heaven-stage martial warrior from the Stellar Academies got frightened by a cosmos-stage martial warrior. This was embarrassing!

"What are you two doing running to the back like that? Do you think I can't see you?" Wang Teng's forehead twitched, and he put away his smile, glaring at them.

The other members of the group were taken aback, and they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Wan Dong and Cob. Their expressions were somewhat peculiar.

Until Wang Teng pointed it out, they hadn't even noticed that these two had slipped to the rear.

Were they really that scared?

"Erm…"

Under the watchful eyes of the group, Wan Dong and Cob's expressions grew even more awkward. Their faces turned as red as fire, and they wanted to find a hole to hide in.

"Am I really that intimidating?" Wang Teng asked.

"We've just exhausted too much energy and needed to rest at the back," Wan Dong replied with a slight flicker in his gaze, speaking earnestly.

"Yeah, we just wanted to recover as quickly as possible," Cob added in a cool tone, but his words betrayed a hint of unease.

"Oh, I see!" Wang Teng looked at them meaningfully but didn't expose their true feelings. He asked, "So, how's your recovery coming along?"

"Not bad. We've regained some strength," Wan Dong said.

"In that case, why don't you two lead the way up front? Let the others have a chance to recover," Wang Teng suggested.

Wan Dong: …

Cob: …

Gikdor, Wu Cheng, and the others looked at their expressions and had the urge to laugh, but they held it in. After all, they were teammates, and one of them was their leader. They needed to give them some face.

"Go ahead, buy some time for your teammates to recover!" Wang Teng encouraged.

Silence.

Both Wan Dong and Cob felt extremely aggrieved, but they had to bear the consequences of their actions. They gritted their teeth and flew towards the front.

"You're going the wrong way. It's not there. It's this way. Left, 300 meters to the left. Fly straight ahead," Wang Teng directed from behind.

Why didn't he say so earlier?

Wan Dong and Cob were filled with frustration but still followed Wang Teng's instructions, flying in the direction he indicated.

Wang Teng waved his hand, leading the rest of the group at a leisurely pace.

In reality, after dealing with the group of Ironback Centipedes, there were no more dangers in the vicinity. The true danger lay within the ancient structure.

However, Wan Dong and Cob were unaware of this fact. They believed that Wang Teng had them lead the way because there was some lurking danger, so they proceeded with even more caution.

They flew 300 meters, paused for a moment to survey their surroundings, and then continued forward.

They flew for five minutes even though they only traveled several kilometers.

Wang Teng wasn't in a hurry. He enjoyed watching the anxious expressions of Wan Dong and Cob from behind. It was quite entertaining.

Gikdor and the others couldn't help but find it amusing, thinking that Wang Teng had a mischievous sense of humor. He was making a fool out of these two heaven-stage martial warriors.

Before long, they suddenly noticed a problem.

The thick fog in front of them was slowly dissipating, and the once dense poison mist became very thin. Then, all at once, it cleared…

An incredibly stunning scene appeared before them!

"What is this…?" Wan Dong and Cob were flying at the very front, and they were astonished by what they saw.

The others behind them soon witnessed the scene, equally awestruck and deeply moved.

The queen of the snakemen race stood beside Wang Teng, and her pupils contracted slightly. Despite having heard from Wang Teng what was hidden within the depths of the poison tide, seeing the actual scene still stirred a profound sense of awe.

It was magnificent!

A vast expanse of ancient buildings was situated above the mist, exuding a grand and ancient aura. If it weren't for the poisonous fog below or the somewhat peculiar design of the structures, this place could easily be mistaken for a palace complex inhabited by god-stage martial warriors.

It was only now that Wan Dong and the others finally understood why Wang Teng had conveyed them to this location. The depths of the poison tide concealed such a place.

At that moment, a strong gleam of excitement shone in the eyes of everyone.

Such an array of ancient structures signified one thing!

Legacy! 

Treasures!

Without much thought, they all surmised that within this complex of ancient buildings, there must be unimaginable treasures or legacies.

Wan Dong and the others suddenly revealed their greed. Their eyes turned red as if they had seen a peerless beauty undressing before them, inviting them to indulge!

"Danger!"

Just then, a loud shout rang out, startling everyone.

Wan Dong and the others instantly jolted, their expressions turning serious as they glanced around, each of them releasing their Froces, preparing for a battle.

However…

The surroundings remained silent, and there was absolutely nothing to be found. There was no danger, and even the poison-element star beasts within the fog below had not come anywhere near this place.

Everyone: …

Everyone glanced at Wang Teng with exasperation, their frustration almost bursting out from their chests.

"Don't look at me like that. I was just reminding you to be careful," Wang Teng said nonchalantly. "Oh, don't forget about the poison in your bodies. My poison is quite peculiar. If anyone misbehaves, it will erupt on its own with a 'boom,' and your body will be gone. Isn't that terrifying?"

Is that not terrifying at all?

Regardless of whether it would automatically erupt as Wang Teng claimed, the poison in their bodies was real.

Wan Dong and the others suddenly felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on them, extinguishing all their greed and desire.

At this moment, they finally understood why Wang Teng had poisoned them. It wasn't just to prevent them from turning on him. It was also because of the ancient building complex before them.

The other party had planned everything from the beginning, using them as laborers, and they hadn't even realized it.

"Wang Teng, you're really something!" Round Ball couldn't help but sarcastically comment.

"What do you know?" Wang Teng responded angrily.

"These people are not easy to control; be careful," Round Ball reminded.

"I know." Wang Teng nodded.

Round Ball knew he had his plan so it didn't say more. This guy was more cunning than anyone else, and probably no one could deceive him.

"Alright, now let's all go up and take a look together," Wang Teng said, wearing a smile once again. "After all, we are all on the same side. We'll see how you perform later. If there's something good, maybe I'll share some with you."

"Of course, everything is based on contributions. Whoever makes the most significant contribution will receive more benefits. I don't need to explain this further, do I?"

Reward those who contribute!

Wan Dong and the others knew what Wang Teng was planning, but they still had hope in their hearts. They might be able to get some benefits.

In front of the building complex was a square paved with black stones, and Wang Teng guided everyone to land there.

"Be careful, there are indeed dangers within this structure."

Wang Teng scanned his surroundings, warning the others as he moved forward.

Wang Teng and the others moved cautiously, observing their surroundings while following Wang Teng towards the buildings.

These structures resembled ancient fortresses and had peculiar architectural styles, but such diversity was not uncommon in the universe.

In the vast expanse of the universe, each species had its unique architectural style, and the current buildings appeared to be constructed by a particular, distinctive species.

Wang Teng observed that these buildings had a striking resemblance to the architecture of the snakemen, but they appeared older and more majestic.

"Do any of you know which race built these structures?" Wang Teng casually inquired.

He was not only asking the question of Wan Dong and the others but also querying Round Ball.

Wan Dong and the others exchanged puzzled glances, as they couldn't discern the origin of the architectural style.

"It should be the Naga Race!" Round Ball spoke through Wang Teng in his mind.

"The Naga Race!" Wang Teng searched the memories inherited from the Devour Nihility Beast and swiftly identified the relevant records. He then exclaimed, "So these are the Naga snakemen!"

"That's right, it's the Naga Snake Race. They should be the ancestors of the Scorpion King Star's Snake Race. It looks like the origins of these snakemen are quite complex," Round Ball marveled, "The Naga snakemen are exceedingly rare in the universe today. Moreover, they went through certain events that guided to their complete decline. Their presence is now a rare sight."

"But the Naga Race possesses remarkable innate talents, along with an extended lifespan, which is their natural advantage."

"For martial warriors, having a long life span from birth means that as long as they pursue a systematic path of cultivation, they can naturally surpass many others."

Wang Teng nodded. He had come across similar descriptions in the memories inherited from the Devour Nihility Beast. However, the reasons behind the decline of the Naga Race were shrouded in mystery, and they remained unknown.

He couldn't help but cast a glance at the queen beside him. If she were aware of her impressive heritage, she might have mixed feelings.

Nevertheless, observing the Scorpion King Star's snakemen, it seemed that their bloodline was already quite diluted, and only Little Qing'er seemed to have some connection to the Naga Race.

According to the inherited memories, the Naga Race possessed various potent bloodlines, and the bloodline of the Primordial Oceanic Serpent was one of them.

Little Qing'er's awakening of this bloodline power indicated signs of atavism. With her growing strength, she should be able to awaken her hidden bloodline and become a true Naga snakewoman.

There was a slight difference in the appearance of the Naga Race and the snakemen from the Scorpion King Star. The noble aura and distinction were apparent even on the surface. The current Little Qing'er still retained some distinctions from the Naga Race's appearance.
