Note: Even this beginner version dares to explore 【All Arts Return to One】? Laughable — it simply cannot be integrated!

Three arts… return to one!

Fang Yue clenched his fist silently.

After Lord Han's death, he had been striving to learn Lord Han's legacy.

Until today, until this moment, he had finally succeeded in mastering and inheriting Lord Han's ultimate art!

The other Martial Arts in the legacy were mere details; only these three core arts were the true legacy, the true essence.

Once the three arts were mastered, the legacy was fully passed down!

No matter what happens in the future, Fang Yue must pass this Martial Art on to future generations, forever, lest Lord Han's ultimate art be lost.

Additionally, as the core three arts, after Fang Yue comprehended Frozen Sword Art, his Frozen Heart Method and Flowing Ice Step both formed a special resonance-like connection with Frozen Sword Art, closely intertwined.

It was as if these three Martial Arts had originally been one, later split apart — their bond was so tight it left Fang Yue puzzled.

But he did not dwell on it; as long as he had comprehended it, his strength had risen another level! He now had greater confidence in breaking into Jingcheng.

Phoenix Organization, An Dong'er, Captain Wu, You Sisi's corpse… I want them all!

Check current Realm Breakthrough Progress…

Current Realm Breakthrough Progress: 99.99%.

Correct — after comprehending Frozen Sword Art, the Realm Breakthrough Progress had surged to the brink; only a tiny bit more was needed to smoothly break through to Human Realm High Tier!

After Human Realm High Tier comes Cloud Tier; once that realm is reached, even Jingcheng can be traversed with impunity, as long as no Rain Tier opponent is encountered!

Fang Yue took a deep breath and calmed his emotions.

The path of Martial Dao cannot be rushed.

This was Lord Han's teaching; he dared not forget.

Two hours after crossing the swarm of flies, the Han Jiang giant ship encountered another strange crisis.

It was a fish-headed man standing on a reef, wielding a steel trident.

His muscular physique and powerful limbs radiated explosive strength.

The steel trident in his hand seemed to resonate with the waters of Han Jiang; merely gripping it tightly sent concentric ripples across the surrounding lake surface.

A few hours ago, everyone aboard would have been paralyzed by fear at this unknown strange creature.

But now, Jing Yan, Chenqing, Lin Ling, and others all gathered by the ship's rail, gazing at the muscular fish-man with the look one reserves for a pitiful creature.

"Moo moo?"

The muscular fish-man seemed confused.

He had encountered this Han Jiang giant ship many times — after all, this was his territory; every time the ship neared Jingcheng, it inevitably met them.

Each time, he and his kin would hunt the ship's crew — sometimes succeeding, sometimes failing — but no matter what, the crew always reacted with panic upon seeing him.

It had nothing to do with anything else — simply because he… was a Disaster Tier High Tier strange!

He had briefly scanned the ship — no Cloud Tier powerhouses aboard.

That meant he alone could wipe out every person on board!

A cruel grin split his mouth; the muscular fish-man suddenly understood — understood why those fools on the ship dared to treat him with such contempt!

Of course — I've hidden my Disaster Tier High Tier aura too well!

These lowly martial cultivators have no idea how powerful, how supremely exalted the strange standing before them truly is!

He already imagined the human cultivators at the bow, eyes bulging in shock, screaming in terror, scattering in all directions.

Then… here I come!

Disaster Tier… aura!!

Hummm —

The aura of the Disaster Tier High Tier strange erupted without restraint from the muscular fish-man, layer upon layer.

The surface of the Han Jiang surged violently, spraying frequent droplets.

Hnnnnh… hnnnnnhhh!!

Afraid yet, human cultivators? Afraid yet?!

The muscular fish-man sneered at the human cultivators — but the next instant, his expression froze.

No… change?

These humans weren't afraid at all?

Their casual, almost languid demeanor made it clear they didn't regard him — a Disaster Tier High Tier strange — as anything at all.

But—but how is this possible!

I'm an invincible high-tier Calamity-grade Monster! These human martial artists don't even reach Human-tier—how dare they be so calm?

Fury erupted from the muscular merman's heart.

Fish scales and fins bristled outward layer by layer, like fish bones.

Battle Form—activate!

Watch me fork your heads right off your shoulders!

It stepped forward, landing precisely on the water's surface…

The next instant, the enraged muscular merman's body suddenly froze, as though slammed by an emergency brake; every hair on its body stood on end, and its heart went ice-cold.

Because, in the reflection on the water, it saw a person.

A human who was holding some kind of hurdle-straddling pose, one hand pressed on its head, as casually as though he were eating or drinking.

And before this, the muscular merman hadn't even sensed the other party's approach!

When did he get to my side?

And what method will he use against me?

Those two questions flashed through its mind at lightning speed—then its head was slammed down by a violent, tremendous force. Its whole body lost balance instantly; with extreme speed, THUD—its head smashed into the river's surface, and its entire body plunged into the river along with it.

Amidst the spinning world, it sank roughly a hundred-plus meters deep into the waters of Han Jiang before the descent finally halted.

When it came to a stop, wild joy rose in its heart.

"Moo moo moo!"

Seeking death! You actually let me fall into the water—among my kind, beneath the surface is the true main battlefield!

Treacherous human martial artist, I gave you your chance. You didn't take my head just now, so from this moment on, you have no path left to walk—only death at my hands!

The muscular merman raised its head with a savage grin—then suddenly froze.
