Chapter 319: God-Controlling Arrow Technique

Lu Yu realized that such powerful sensory ability came with a rapid consumption of Mental Power, like flowing water; it actually required a consumption of 【points】 per second!

Given his current reserve of nearly 300,000 points of Mental Power, he could only maintain it for less than four seconds at most.

"With this, it should be considered foolproof." Lu Yu slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, feeling slightly relieved in his heart.

After all, if Lu Family Fort were to encounter danger, he would be able to perceive it at the very first moment thanks to this powerful sense, and thus arrive in time.

Besides this, there was another piece of good news.

Lu Yu's gaze fell upon the 【Heavenly Son's Qi-Observing Art】.

【Heavenly Son's Qi-Observing Art: Not Even a Clue】

【Current completion level: 16%】

【Completion conditions: 1. Mental Power reaches 10,000 points; 2. Heaven-Man Induction Formula at Consummation】

【Completion conditions met. Consumes time: two days. Complete it?】

Seeing the last line of information, Lu Yu subconsciously scratched his head.

He pondered to himself that he had long since far exceeded the standards required by these two completion conditions, yet even so, completing this skill would still take two days.

Following this logic, if the Heaven-Man Induction Formula had only just reached the Consummation state, then the time required to complete the 【Heavenly Son's Qi-Observing Art】 might extend to four or five days, or perhaps even as long as a week.

"Then let's take it slow." Lu Yu shook his head and clicked "Yes."

Another mental Secret Technique—the Soul Shifting Great Method—had now also reached the Consummation realm.

According to his speculation, the Consummation of the Soul Shifting Great Method might be one of the conditions for completing the Undying Seal Art, but he still had to learn the Jiayi Shenggong.

And to complete the Jiayi Shenggong, one must continuously learn various different Internal Energy mental cultivation methods, thereby unlocking the characteristic of absorbing the enemy's True Qi.

As the saying goes, a ten-thousand-foot tower rises from the ground.

"Arrow Technique is of the utmost importance and must be learned with focus; it will become my primary means of attack in the future.

At the same time, the mental cultivation method must never be neglected; it is closely related to the amount of True Qi in my body and the power of my strikes.

If the amount of True Qi in the body is too low, even if one possesses powerful killing moves, it is difficult to execute them many times; in the end, a clever housewife cannot cook without rice.

The Golden Bell Shield is also indispensable; learning it can significantly improve my survival ability.

Moreover, the Golden Bell Shield can only complete the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill when cultivated to the ninth level, and the same is true for the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art.

As the prerequisite cultivation methods, the Wanzhang Shenggong and Thousand Elephant Divine Skill must be started today; I will go all out to strive for unlocking them as soon as possible.

Afterwards, I still need to choose one or two unarmed martial arts to guard against emergencies.

Currently, I am mainly focusing my Potential Points on opening up the meridians; strengthening the body is not an urgent matter, so attribute points can be added step by step and gradually.

Finally, I will learn the Wind-Facing Blade Slash to fill in the last gap in melee combat."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yu nodded, feeling that the plan was roughly set.

He cast his gaze toward the skill bar.

Compared to other weapon martial arts, the number of Arrow Technique martial arts was truly scarce; even in the Awakened Association, there were only three Arrow Technique Secret Manuals.

【Sun-Shooting Arrow Technique】, this is an arrow technique with extremely fast speed and powerful force; it is said to possess the power to shoot down the sun.

Lu Yu felt that this might be a bit of an exaggeration.

However, judging from the description, the power of the Secret Technique within it should be more formidable than his current Cloud-Piercing Arrow Technique.

Therefore, learning this arrow technique was still very necessary.

After all, an arrow he shot while consuming 3,000 points of True Qi could only heavily injure a Fire-Scaled Pig. If he encountered a Commander-level opponent, he feared he would not even be able to break its defense.

The second one, 【Flame Arrow Technique】, this arrow technique is quite unique; it can convert the True Qi within the Martial Artist's body into fire-attribute True Qi and attach it to the arrow, thereby multiplying its power.

However, as the description shows, this arrow technique has quite high requirements for the amount of True Qi in the practitioner's body; even if an ordinary person learns it, it is difficult to execute.

Of course, there are special cases; if a Martial Artist already possesses fire-attribute True Qi in their body, then combining it with this arrow technique is simply like adding wings to a tiger.

【God-Controlling Arrow Technique】, this is the third and also the final arrow technique Secret Manual.

Its special feature lies in the ability to attach Mental Power to the arrow, which can not only cause damage to the enemy's body but also destroy the opponent's soul, which can be called a double torture of the enemy's spirit and flesh.

"I didn't expect to have another mental attack method." Lu Yu was somewhat surprised.

By comparison, the attack range of the Soul Extinguishing Finger was much shorter.

There were only three arrow technique Secret Manuals, so Lu Yu naturally intended to learn them all.

Then let's start with the 【Sun-Shooting Arrow Technique】.

……

On the only road from Yongan City to Zhou Family Fort, two armored vehicles were tightly guarding a large truck in the middle, speeding forward.

Wherever the convoy passed, the commotion was quite large, attracting the attention of many Fierce Beasts.

Those Fierce Beasts that were timid by nature, the moment they heard the commotion, instantly spread their four legs and fled in a panic toward the distance.

Those with slightly more courage stood where they were, quietly watching the three vehicles gradually move away.

And there were some Fierce Beasts with irritable tempers that actually rushed toward the convoy regardless of everything.

Whenever this happened, two or three pitch-black gun barrels would quickly extend from the front and rear armored vehicles.

Immediately following, "Bang bang bang!" "Bang bang bang!", the muzzles spat out dazzling flames, and the dull sound of gunfire echoed on the Wasteland for a long time.

Some of the Fierce Beasts that came running were instantly riddled with holes and fell into a pool of blood; others were so scared that they turned and ran the moment they heard the gunfire.

Just like this, although the convoy encountered constant dangers along the way, it was always able to turn peril into safety.

"These Fierce Beasts are endless!" On the large truck in the middle, the man driving, Dai Shiyun, complained with a face full of impatience.

"We've run this road so many times, haven't you gotten used to it yet?" The man in the passenger seat, Qiu Liang, said slowly, arms crossed and lying lazily on the chair. "They are all just low-level Fierce Beasts; you should be secretly happy that you haven't encountered an Advanced Fierce Beast."

"That's true." While saying this, Dai Shiyun held the steering wheel with one hand and pulled a cigarette from the cigarette case with the other, put it in his mouth, then picked up a lighter to light it, exhaled a smoke ring, and cursed, "Damn it, I don't know when we'll be able to stop doing this kind of work."

"Who can say for sure." Qiu Liang sighed helplessly. "Who told us to be the two with the lowest strength in the Merchant Guild?"

Once these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the truck suddenly became quiet.

Don't look at the fact that they were currently doing the job of driving and escorting supplies; in reality, both of them were genuine Dark Energy Martial Artists.

It was only due to the pressure of circumstances that he had to take on this job of escorting supplies.

Although most of the Fierce Beasts on the road from Yongan City to Zhou Family Fort are low or mid-level, it would be troublesome if one were to encounter an Advanced Fierce Beast.

Many such incidents occurred in earlier years, where a caravan was targeted by an Advanced Fierce Beast, resulting in the near-total annihilation of those who went.

Ever since then, the Merchant Guild has arranged for In-Jin Martial Artists to be responsible for transport.

Of course, this cannot guarantee absolute safety; if one truly encounters an Advanced Fierce Beast, life and death become hard to predict.

Dai Shiyun finished his cigarette in a few puffs, stubbed out the butt, and asked curiously, "Old Qiu, I heard the Merchant Guild hasn't been peaceful these past few days and quite a few seniors have been killed. Is that true?"

"You're talking about that person in the Martial Arts Association who wears a mask and uses a bow and arrow, right?" Qiu Liang asked in return.

"Yes, yes, that's him."

Dai Shiyun nodded hurriedly, drew a sharp breath, and said, "I heard that guy is fierce; he killed seven or eight people from our Merchant Guild all by himself, and several of them were Transformation Energy Martial Artists. Old Qiu, you're well-informed, is this true?"

"It certainly is." Upon hearing this, Qiu Liang immediately sat up straight and even subconsciously shrank his neck, saying:

"That guy is simply godlike; he kills one if one comes, and a pair if two come. In the end, no one else in the Association dared to go and trouble him. I heard Sheng Yuan had no choice and eventually invited a Pulse Refining Realm Martial Artist to step in."
