Chapter 69: The Wrong Way to Clear the Level

The Jin army failed too many times, and even someone like Meng Jingzhou sank, feeling that victory was impossible.

"Can I really win?" Meng Jingzhou asked himself in the cave, feeling that the answer to this question was so bitter that it was hard to speak.

"Hmm, a spider?" Meng Jingzhou noticed the spider weaving a web.

The spider failed again and again, tried again and again, which shocked him greatly.

"The spider keeps fighting despite repeated failures. Can I not even compare to a spider?"

Meng Jingzhou was greatly encouraged, reorganized his army, and wanted to fight Liang again!

"The Liang army is stronger than us, but the gap is not to the point of a chasm. And how can I give up because of a few failures? If I give up, what should the Jin behind me do?"

"I believe that as long as the strategy is appropriate this time, it is possible to win!" Meng Jingzhou clenched his fists tightly, and he already had a plan in his heart.

After several failures, he was already familiar with the Liang general’s routine. The Liang general had won many times, and his mentality must be inflated. He could use this psychology to pretend to fail, flee in a sorry state, lead the Liang army to the canyon, and surround them in turn.

This time, he will definitely be able to make a surprise attack and live up to the expectations of the Jin elders!

"Thank you for the teaching." Meng Jingzhou clasped his fists to thank the spider. If it weren't for the spider’s inspiration, he would definitely be depressed, and then there would really be no hope of victory.

There were many mosquitoes and insects in the cave. To show his gratitude, Meng Jingzhou caught a bug and sent it to the spider.

The spider didn't seem to understand Meng Jingzhou’s approach and treated him as an enemy, biting him.

"It’s a poisonous spider..."

Meng Jingzhou’s head went dizzy, and he fainted.

I don't know how long passed, maybe a few minutes, maybe ten or twenty minutes, anyway, it wasn't long. Meng Jingzhou woke up and felt his body was full of strength.

"What happened to me?"

Meng Jingzhou felt that his body had undergone some changes. His vision, hearing, and perception were all becoming stronger, and his body was unprecedentedly flexible, as if he had been reborn.

His right hand moved subconsciously, his middle finger and ring finger bent, and white silk sprayed out from his wrist.

"What the hell is this?"

The white silk stuck to the wall. Meng Jingzhou pulled it hard and found it was unusually tough.

"Why does it look like spider silk?"

Meng Jingzhou put his hands on the wall and was surprised to find that his hands could stick to his arms, and flying over eaves and walls was not a problem.

"I remember it was after being bitten by a spider... By the way, where is the spider?" When Meng Jingzhou found the spider, the spider had already been killed by a mantis.

Meng Jingzhou stepped on the mantis to avenge the spider.

He inherited the spider’s last wish, reorganized the army, and fought the Liang army again.

On the night before the decisive battle, he wore night clothes and, relying on his newly acquired power, carried out a decapitation operation alone, directly beheading the Liang general.

The Liang general was dumbfounded at the time. Everyone is a general, shouldn't we be fighting with swords and soldiers on the battlefield, and fighting to the death at the end? You jumped directly to the end, general killing general?

The Liang general had cultivator guards around him, but they were not as flexible as Meng Jingzhou. Meng Jingzhou successfully killed the Liang general.

The Liang general was a rare military genius. After he died, the group of dragons had no leader, and the Liang army had no one who could preside over the overall situation. Meng Jingzhou led the Jin army to defeat the Liang army.

Meng Jingzhou passed the level.

At the Immortal-Immortal Sect headquarters, the Sect Master and the Deputy Sect Master watched Meng Jingzhou’s way of passing the level and didn't speak for a long time.

A second way to pass the level really appeared.

The Sect Master rubbed his eyebrows: "What’s the situation with this spider? Why does it make people gain the spider’s ability after one bite?"

"Could it be that if I bite the spider, the spider can transform?"

The Deputy Sect Master was also confused. He pondered for a while, as if thinking of something, took out a classic from the storage ring, pointed to a paragraph of text and said: "Found it. Look, there are records in the ancient books saying that there was a peculiar spider in the Central Continent. Its own strength was the same as an ordinary spider and it never bit people, but anyone bitten by it would have their body mutated."

"This kind of spider went extinct tens of thousands of years ago."

The Deputy Sect Master analyzed reasonably: "The Jin and Liang countries happened ten thousand years ago, and we perfectly reproduced the scene at that time, so theoretically, it is possible for this peculiar spider to appear in the cave."

The Sect Master nodded: "It seems that this Meng Jingzhou not only has perseverance and a flexible brain, but also good luck."

The theory of luck is ethereal. I am afraid that only the legendary "Qi-Gazing Technique" can truly evaluate how luck is.

However, it can be reflected to some extent from other aspects. For example, Meng Jingzhou now, so many people are passing this level, only he was bitten by a spider and mutated, indicating that his luck is not ordinary.

People with excellent luck have a smooth cultivation path and very high future achievements.

"Let’s look at others. I don't believe there is a third way to pass the level."

Lu Yang watched the spider weaving the web and failing again and again, and fell into deep thought.

"The spider weaving a web can capture prey, so why did waiting for the rabbit fail? Aren't they all staying in place waiting for prey to come to the door? What is the difference?"

"Is it because bugs have no brains and can only stupidly hit the web, while rabbits are smarter and know how to avoid trees?"

"If bugs have no brains, it means spiders have no brains. Then the spider constantly experiencing failure and constantly weaving webs is a manifestation of willpower, or a fool’s persistence?"

"Rabbits still know not to hit a tree, why are there still people who don't turn back until they hit the south wall?"

Lu Yang diverged his thinking and thought very far.

He was not discouraged after experiencing failure, but just took shelter from the rain in the cave and thought about how to defeat the enemy by the way.

Now seeing the spider weaving a web, he thought of many questions that seemed profound but were actually useless.

Suddenly, a mantis appeared, taking advantage of the spider’s lack of preparation, and launched a sneak attack on the spider. The spider used the advantage of the spider web to fight back hard. The mantis’s movements were skillful and intense. After a few rounds, it killed the spider.

Lu Yang witnessed this process, thought thoughtfully, stood up, and recalled the mantis’s movements.

In terms of technique, he learned the mantis’s skillful use of two flexible and changeable forearms, and in terms of footwork, he learned its sudden leaps of flashing, expanding, and moving forward, backward, left, and right.

"Imagine yourself as a mantis..."

Lu Yang muttered to himself. He felt that he seemed to have learned something similar and was very talented in this regard.

Lu Yang was like a human mantis, combining hardness and softness, brave and fast, and any opponent would fall under his fist technique.

The Jin general in history was in the middle stage of Qi Refining. Lu Yang inherited the Jin general’s cultivation, which was also the middle stage of Qi Refining.

After practicing to the end, he directly changed his body shape and became a big mantis, his forearms attacking quickly, and he punched the cave to collapse.

Lu Yang sighed: "So this is the Mantis Fist passed down by word of mouth in the martial arts world? It’s so powerful, it’s just that ordinary people can’t learn it."

Lu Yang simplified the Mantis Fist, which was simple and easy to learn, and promoted it on a large scale in the army. The combat power of the Jin army directly exceeded that of Liang. Without any strategy, it pushed all the way.

Lu Yang passed the level.

"Whose family passes the level like this!" The Deputy Sect Master said angrily.

Added update for the alliance leader "Give me a hug".
