Not everyone could accept Happy’s actions.

Stone King might not be nimble when it turned around, but its speed and attack was still very astonishing. After all, it was an NPC at Moksha Realm, and its combat abilities were extraordinary. After taking a single punch, the person who was attacked would either die or be heavily injured.

When everyone saw Happy taking the initiative to go up against Stone King, they felt their hearts let out a loud thump against their chests, and they did not dare look at the fight for fear of Stone King sending him flying.

Red Coral and Black Rose suddenly felt a little regretful.

It had to be Happy’s first time coming into contact with Stone King, and he had no idea just how great it was, especially since he just saw a normal Mystical Realm player lead Stone King around in circles. The girls’ focused their gazes, and their bodies tensed up. They quickly prepared themselves to save Happy and attract Stone King’s attention.

However, they did not notice that Thunderous Battle was standing by the side with his arms folded over his chest. He did not seem to be worried at all. Not only did he not look nervous, he seemed to be sizing up the dazzling silver armor on Happy’s body.

It was the first time he saw Happy wear that armor.

Even when he fought against Lu Mingyue, Happy only wore a normal blue robe. Right then, with how serious he treated the matter, Happy had to have prepared to go against Stone King.

Clang!

A dull thud traveled into people’s ears. It instantly drowned out all the noises formed by the digging in the second level of the crystal mine.

At the moment Happy collided with Stone King, sword light gushed out from his sword, and it crashed against the wind stirred up by Stone King’s forceful and huge fist. It rammed into Happy’s body with a might that could sweep away everything with ease.

However, Happy was not sent flying as everyone had expected!

His Golden Bell Cocoon simply became much dimmer. It let out a loud buzz, and the light that signified Happy’s body fortification trembled and swayed violently. Part of Stone King’s attack had been negated.

Happy looked as if he had been hit by a giant hammer. He took three loud steps backwards before he stopped.

The crowd was dumbfounded and struck speechless.

Before they realized what had happened, an aura that signified Mystical Realm surged out around Happy!

Boom!

Golden Bell Cocoon shone gloriously, and golden light sparkled. It returned to its peak, and the golden bell took shape once more.

Happy stood where he was with a level-headed gaze. His expression could not be seen clearly.

Stone King delivered his second punch fiercely!

Clang!

Golden Bell Cocoon shuddered again.

Happy did not even bother to dodge. He took two steps back again.

Clang! Clang! CLANG!

Stone King’s fists moved like the wind once it no longer had any obstructions in its away. It threw punch after punch at Happy, but Golden Bell Cocoon’s golden light shone madly. In the blink of an eye, however, it became dim and lustreless from its previous brilliance.

The onlookers had already forgotten about mining ores. They stared at Happy as he received dozens of blows from Stone King, but still did not fall. They looked as if they were seeing some sort of human-shaped monster.

Red Coral and Black Rose sucked in sharp breaths. They finally understood that Happy was not being reckless, but had made full preparations to go up against Stone King. The silver armor had to be helping him absorb quite a lot of Stone King’s damage.

But that was not what Thunderous Battle thought.

Fist techniques were slightly inferior compared to sword and saber techniques in damage, but their speed was much faster!

However, the Golden Bell Cocoon Happy possessed was much better in defending pure attacks compared to the Mystical Realm body fortification technique—Illusory Spirit Body. Golden Bell Cocoon could absorb and negate damage. It also had a defense attribute that was almost at 1,000. When the silver armor was added to that, a fist technique at Moksha Realm would indeed have a hard time dealing a lot of damage to Happy.

Right then, the only thing that puzzled Thunderous Battle was that Happy seemed to be a little too wasteful if he spent his Dew Pills like that. Aside from parrying the attack with his sword earlier to cancel some of Stone King’s damage, Happy simply allowed Stone King to attack him and did not bother to defend himself or counterattack. It was as if he was just a sitting duck.

*****

As expected of a boss at Moksha Realm. Even if Happy’s Silver Aquatic Dragon Set could negate almost an entire qi realm’s worth of damage, Stone King’s fierce and swift attacks still managed to weaken Golden Bell Cocoon to the point that it would shatter very soon. The sparkling golden bell almost instantly turned thin and lusterless. It shook and looked as if it was about to break if it withstood another hit.

Phantasm Body Movement Skill!

During the critical moment, Happy activated his lightness skill. He moved left, dodged Stone King’s fist and the wind that came along with it, moved past his left side, and shifted behind it.

Clang!

Sword light flashed. It touched Stone King briefly before it moved away. Happy shifted thirty-two feet away without any intention to continue with the fight. He handed Stone King back to the Blood River Sect member and let him continue luring him around the area.

Red Coral and Black Rose thought that the battle had ended and waited for Happy to come back to ask him about the details, but they did not expect that he would sit down cross-legged in the middle of the crystal mine and circulate his qi so that he could heal his wounds.

Constellation Breathing Technique!

A rarely seen sight appeared around Happy. A profound darkness rose around him, and gradually, a constellation chart formed by shining starlight lit up.

While Happy circulated his qi using the breathing technique, his qi was quickly restored, and his wounds swiftly healed. The pale look and the sickly red flush on his face gradually vanished, and his mental energy as well as his stamina quickly returned to its peak.

“Whew…”

Three minutes passed.

Happy opened his eyes again and stared at Stone King while it chased after the Blood River Sect member with huge strides. A rare smile rose on his lips.

Since he was being hunted by Embroidered Uniform Guards, he couldn’t practice his martial arts at ease. That was why he came to unique places where Embroidered Uniform Guards could not enter. Happy’s main goal was to push his Seven Stars Sword Styles and Golden Bell Cocoon to Grandmaster Realm.

And reality proved that he had set a pretty achievable goal for himself.

Improving his martial arts by practicing them with a Moksha Realm boss was much faster than practicing with normal Life and Death NPCs.

Usually, his Golden Bell Cocoon would not increase by 0.01 points even after he withstood more than one hundred hits from Life and Death NPCs. However, when he fought against Stone King and was unaffected by his damage, two punches were enough for him to see a 0.01 points increase. He might have taken three Dew Pills just then, but it helped him withstand around a dozen hits from Stone King, and his Golden Bell Cocoon had increased by 0.01 points every couple hits. With such speed, he could reach Level 99.99 very soon.

The difference between Golden Bell Cocoon at the tenth realm and the eleventh realm, which was Grandmaster Realm, was like night and day!

Happy had chosen Golden Bell Cocoon in the broken temple of Mount Song instead of the eye-catching Shaolin Temple ultimate techniques because Golden Bell Cocoon was listed as one of the Seventy-two Ultimate Techniques in Shaolin Temple, not because the other ultimate techniques from Shaolin Temple had not caught his eye. It was because once Golden Bell Cocoon reached completion, the effect it released would be something normal people could not imagine. It was something that was only gradually revealed in the later stages of the game in Happy’s previous life.

Shaolin Temple was known by the Tang Dynasty as the divine monastery that protected the nation.

At that time, Golden Bell Cocoon was still an unknown technique.

However, who would have thought that Golden Bell Cocoon would have the meaning of being loyal to the country and protecting it?

Being indestructible was a sign of loyalty!

Happy opened his eyes slightly and cast a glance at his Golden Bell Cocoon’s level. Due to his fight against Lu Mingyue and Silver Wolf, he was only 0.70 points away from reaching great completion. As long as he fought for another ten rounds, he could push his Golden Bell Cocoon to great completion.

When he thought of that, Happy sucked in a light breath and rose from the ground.

Boom!

Right under everyone’s astonished gazes, a layer of golden light quickly rose around the sparkling silver armor. Happy activated his qi realm fully and rushed again at Stone King with a determined and indomitable spirit.
