Chapter 75: (Please follow!) Black Fiend Demon Statue Art! Fearless Heart Achieved
"Boss, are you serious? Advanced True Martial Arts are the lifeblood of each family; I'm afraid they won't hand them over. And at this time..."
Zhang Lin spoke somewhat bitterly. It was a time to work together to fight the weirdness siege; doing this wouldn't it affect cooperation between all parties? Qin Jiang looked at him and nodded slightly, "Let Kong Hai go. You go tell him."
After speaking, he waved his hand. Zhang Lin opened his mouth but didn't say anything, turning and leaving.
Not long after, Zhang Lin sent the martial arts in the gang.
"Boss, Hall Master Kong has already gone. This is all the martial arts in the Martial Pavilion.
Ten unranked martial arts, four complete ordinary True Martial Arts, three incomplete ones, and three Advanced True Martial Art fragments," he said.
Qin Jiang nodded, "Put them there."
Zhang Lin put down the manuals in his hand. Qin Jiang picked one up to flip through. This was a fragment, titled "Wild Ox Strength."
After reading it, he looked at the panel,
Wild Ox Strength (Fragment) (Not yet entered) (5/400) 【52%】 【Fragment detected, whether to consume potential points for deduction? This deduction will consume 2 potential points.】
Looking at the prompt, he couldn't help but laugh.
Sure enough, martial art fragments were very troublesome for others, but for him, it was no big deal.
'Deduce.'
【Deducing... Deduction complete】
【Wild Ox Strength (Not yet entered) (5/400) 【52%】】
【Potential Points: 481.6】
Without hesitation, he looked at the remaining martial arts: "Snake-Striking Staff," "Black Iron Sword," "Flying Eagle Claw"... He picked two that didn't conflict with his current martial arts system to flip through.
A moment later, footsteps sounded under the city wall, and a Deacon wearing a fox fur cloak ran up quickly.
He was sweating profusely. Seeing Qin Jiang, he shouted loudly: "Head of Hall! Something is wrong! Second Master has been blocked at the East City by people from the Local Family Alliance!"
Qin Jiang recognized this person; it was Second Hall Deacon Xu Shi, a very talented young man who had mastered the Red Tiger Fist in just three months.
"What's going on? Tell me slowly."
Xu Shi gasped for breath; he had run over at full speed without a moment's rest.
"Second Master, Second Master received your order to copy martial arts from each family, but was blocked by Zhao Qianli.
This guy has already mastered the fourth layer of the Ten Demon Sabers. Second Master is no match for him and has been blocked at the East City!"
Qin Jiang frowned slightly, "Who is Zhao Qianli?"
Xu Shi was stunned upon hearing this, not expecting Qin Jiang to actually not know. He hurriedly said: "Back to Head of Hall, Zhao Qianli is the elder brother of the Zhao family head, and also the clerk of the County Government prison. His saber technique is extremely strong, not much weaker than County Lieutenant!"
Qin Jiang nodded, "Let's go, let's take a look."
After speaking, he grabbed Xu Shi and leaped off the city wall, threw him onto a black horse, and landed on the horse himself.
The two rode the horse forward, and before long, they arrived at the East City, seeing the two groups of people confronting each other from afar.
One group was the Red Tiger Gang members led by Kong Hai, and the other group wore yamen runner uniforms. The leader was a bearded man in black, eyes wide with anger.
Behind him stood Zhao Yunsheng and a group of local family members. A rough look showed at least seven or eight Divine Intent realm experts.
"Zhao Qianli! I advise you not to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! If you offend the Head of Hall, you won't even know how you died!"
Kong Hai shouted angrily. He hadn't expected that it was just the first stop, and yet they had stumbled. It was truly an unlucky start!
"Surname Kong, don't be shameless! Don't say your Head of Hall, even if your Gang Leader came, don't even think about taking my Ten Demon Sabers manual!"
Zhao Qianli roared, holding a steel saber. This "Ten Demon Sabers" manual was something he had obtained by chance, and its power was immense.
He even had a premonition that as long as he could master the Ten Demon Sabers, he would have the qualifications to challenge Lu Xuanwu! By then, who was the number one expert in Black Mountain City would be hard to say!
But now, the Red Tiger Gang actually dared to come and rob it openly?! It was truly bullying him too much! How could he swallow this anger!
*Whoa—! * The sound of pulling the reins came. The crowd behind Kong Hai parted, and Qin Jiang rode slowly forward.
"Head of Hall!"
Kong Hai ran over to lead the horse, looking at Zhao Qianli with displeasure.
Qin Jiang sat on the horse, looking down at Zhao Qianli, "Clerk Zhao, now that the Weird Domain has formed, perhaps an Eye-Weird will be born soon.
And as of now, reinforcements from the County City are nowhere to be seen. In the current Black Mountain City, only I have the opportunity to reach a level capable of contending with an Eye-Weird."
Zhao Qianli's expression changed upon hearing this. Of course he knew what an Eye-Weird was, but he also knew how large the gap between True Martial Artists and Eye-Weird was!
Therefore, he didn't believe Qin Jiang at all, only thinking the other party was lying to him just to get the Ten Demon Sabers manual in his hands!
"Yellow-mouthed child, don't think you can talk nonsense just because you've become the Head of Hall! If you want my Ten Demon Sabers, come and take it yourself!"
As he spoke, he raised his chin, revealing a corner of the "Ten Demon Sabers" manual in his bosom.
*Boom—! * Dust surged. Kong Hai only felt a gale scrape past his ears. Looking back, Qin Jiang was no longer on the horse.
He hurriedly looked forward, dust obscuring his vision.
*Whoosh~* The night wind blew past, blowing away the dust and revealing the situation inside.
Only to see in a shallow pit over two meters in diameter, Qin Jiang was stepping on Zhao Qianli's head with one foot, while his right hand held a manual—it was the Ten Demon Sabers manual that Zhao Qianli had revealed a corner of.
Qin Jiang put away the manual and looked at the Alliance crowd opposite, "I wish to borrow the True Martial Arts of each family for a look. Whoever is unwilling, say it to my face."
The voice wasn't loud, but it echoed in everyone's ears.
The crowd in the Alliance looked at Zhao Qianli, who was already unconscious under Qin Jiang's feet, and couldn't help but swallow.
After Song Xiaoan died, Zhao Qianli was their number one expert.
And right now, this number one expert of the Alliance had been subdued in an instant. With such strength, I'm afraid even the peak Lu Xuanwu couldn't have done it? "No objections? If you say anything else after this moment, don't blame this Head of Hall for turning hostile," Qin Jiang laughed.
After speaking, he looked at Kong Hai, "Old Kong, go. Whoever dares to block, write it down, and I will take it personally."
Three days later, night.
Qin Jiang sat on the South City wall, looking at the weird mist surging outside the city. The weird mist tonight seemed somewhat overly active.
After pondering for a moment, he focused his attention on the potential panel,
【Current Martial Arts】
Black Fiend Demon Statue Art (Perfected) 【95%】, True Self Innate Technique (Perfected) 【69%】, Clear Wind Cloud Pushing Hand (Perfected) 【67%】, Pine Crane Thousand Feather Art (Perfected) 【65%】, Qianyuan Qi Luck Art (Perfected) 【58%】, Cloud Gathering Life Transformation Art (Perfected) 【62%】 【Potential Points: 3.6】
Potential points were almost exhausted, but at the same time, his strength had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Especially the Ten Demon Sabers, Golden Image Technique, and Black Fiend Technique—their adaptability all exceeded 80%.
If adaptability exceeds 70%, practicing will be twice the result with half the effort, as if helped by heaven.
And exceeding 80%, not only is it simpler to practice, but the power will also be greater, almost doubling the power compared to martial arts with low adaptability.
As for 90%, that could almost be said to be comparable to the legendary innate divine ability, where even the most trashy martial arts could exert a miraculous effect.
Ten Demon Sabers didn't need to be said; it was learned from Zhao Qianli and was an Advanced True Martial Art several times stronger than the Red Tiger Fist.
The Golden Image Technique was sent by the Lin family, which had always been extremely low-key.
It was very powerful, and its quality was no worse than the True Self Innate Technique.
And the Black Fiend Technique was also an Advanced True Martial Art no weaker than the Golden Image Technique.
It was sent by Xu Yanran, along with the Golden Flame Blade and another Advanced True Martial Art.
It had to be said that the Xu family's foundation was indeed deep, which made him even more curious about the Xu family's origin.
Putting away the panel, with more than ten True Martial Arts on his body, even he himself didn't know how strong he was.
Breaking a city with one strike—why not? But could he really deal with an Eye-Weird? An Eye-Weird comparable to a Secret Martial Artist?
Sitting quietly on the city wall, his eyes closed slightly, and his aura gradually became smaller.
The sound of the wind around him gradually vanished, and all his consciousness began to empty.
I don't know how much time passed, but the night sky was suddenly illuminated!
*Bang! Bang! Bang! * A series of signal rockets exploded; these were rockets used only for emergency requests for help.
And now, they were actually rising all over Black Mountain City!
*Step, step, step! * Zhang Lin rushed over quickly and went straight to Qin Jiang's side, "Boss! Something is wrong! Weirdness has appeared all over the city! We..."
Before he could finish, his pupils suddenly contracted, looking at the outside of the city with shock.
Only to see a dense White Bone Army rushing out of the weird mist, launching an attack on Black Mountain City.
This time, the offensive far exceeded the previous ones!
He looked at Qin Jiang anxiously, only to see the other party sitting cross-legged with eyes closed, without any movement.
Involuntarily, he began to panic and hurriedly organized manpower to resist the White Bone Army's attack, while calling for other Hall Masters and Elders.
But even so, under the White Bone Army's surging attack method, they were still retreating steadily, only a little bit away from having the city wall broken!
He looked at where Qin Jiang was. Only Qin Jiang could turn the tide now! But when he turned his gaze over, he suddenly discovered that Qin Jiang was standing quietly on the city wall, like an eternal statue.
Qin Jiang's eyes opened slightly, his gaze looking toward the inside and outside of the city.
Fires were lit all over the city, weirdness was rampant on the streets, and outside the city was an endless White Bone Army.
Terrified screams, angry roars, unwilling howls—at this moment, Black Mountain City was truly a scene of a city about to fall and perish.
But his heart was completely calm.
Raising his head, looking toward the sky, the weird mist obscured the moonlight, and he could only faintly see a patch of light.
He reached out his hand, as if to push aside the clouds to see the bright moon.
*'Absolute confidence, huh?'*
A feeling of sudden enlightenment arose in his heart.
He closed his eyes slightly, and then opened them abruptly! Carrying an indescribable dominance!
Surging blood-red fiendish energy exploded suddenly, turning pitch black in the blink of an eye.
Wisps of fiendish energy gathered behind him, forming a substantial human image three zhang tall, with a face exactly the same as his.
【Potential Points +20】
【Black Fiend Demon Statue Art (Fifth Layer) (1900/2500) 【95%】】
Fierce pitch-black fiendish energy surged, instantly spreading across the South City wall, enveloping all the white bone skeletons!
Majestic might rose, dispelling the weird mist above the city wall! Moonlight spilled down, the bright moon reappeared, and he reached out his hand unconsciously, as if to hold that bright moon in his palm.
For no reason, he thought of his previous life, and whispered softly, "Suddenly break the golden rope, here snap the jade lock... Fearless heart, fearless heart... *hehehehehe, hahahahaha! *"
Wild and dominant laughter resounded through the night. That wanton laughter seemed to break free from some kind of shackle, and his figure, set off by the firelight, was like a demon god descending.
The heart knot had opened, the thought lock had broken, and the fearless heart was achieved.
