Chapter 8 - Jinyong Wuxia SystemAs the robotic voice faded away, the beam of light that blotted out the sky and covered the earth suddenly came to a standstill, as if time had stopped.
Then, the black s.p.a.ce that was like a sky full of stars suddenly shrank and formed into a huge circular disc. On the disc, there were fan shaped patterns of all kinds of colors, with some Chinese characters from the previous world written on them.
Xiang Yun looked at the words written on the disk and could not help but be slightly startled.On the disc, there was a fan pattern that read: "Breath Training Technique, Mysterious Gate Breathing Technique, Righteous Qi Technique, Xingyi Fist Technique, Eight Trigrams Palm, Tiger Claw Extermination Hands".
"Aren"t these the inferior inner force skills and martial arts from Jin Yong"s novels? "
Xiang Yun only read a few words in the fan-shaped group before feeling shocked in his heart.
These were terms that ordinary people might only think of as the names of some martial arts. As for Jin Yong"s hardcore fans, Xiang Yun was able to recognize them with a single glance.
The martial arts written on these discs were all low-level inner force skills and low-level martial arts from Jin Yong"s novels.For example, Jin Yong"s novel about breathing life force cultivation, the Emei Sect"s inner force cultivation method, the entry level inner force cultivation method, and the Mysterious Gate"s breathing technique were all basic training methods of the Wudang Sect.
As for the Xing Yi Fist and the Eight Trigrams Palm, they were considered low-level martial arts, which were also the names of the martial arts in Jin Yong"s novels.
Xiang Yun curiously looked at the disc in front of him and discovered that on this disc, there were actually eighteen uniformly sized fan shaped diagrams, completely dividing this disc into eighteen small areas.There were six colors in each of the eighteen small regions. The three low-level internal energy techniques were red, while the three low-level martial arts were yellow.
It seemed that the colors were categorized according to the type of items present. This was much the same as in the Jin Yong World game that Xiang Yun had played in his previous life."Could it be that this disk is used for the lottery?" Looking at the shape of the disk, Xiang Yun thought back to the game he had once played, the "Lucky Wheel" that was used for drawing equipment or giving gifts. It seemed that this game was also one of its own.
"Let me see what"s good here." At this moment, Xiang Yun was completely holding onto the att.i.tude of a veteran gamer as he came to observe the game"s settings.
He first carefully looked at the items on the disk and found that there were a total of six types of items.
They were martial arts manuals, weapons, silver taels, special items, construction order, and internal force cultivation.
Among them, martial arts techniques were: Form and Will Boxing, Eight Trigrams Palm, and Tiger Claws Absolute Hands.
Inner force mental cultivation methods were: breathing life force cultivation, Mysterious Gate breathing technique, and Vitality Qi cultivation technique.Weapons: Iron Sword, Soft Sword, Qi Mei Staff,
Special items: Soft Cloth Armour, Hundred Meters Mosquitoes, Five Poison Wine
The construction orders were: wooden house, quincuncial piles, stone tables and stone benches,
The two types of silver are: 1 tael of silver, 10 taels of silver, 100 taels of silver,
After reading all these,
Xiang Yun could not help but feel slightly surprised as he thought to himself, "The items for this game are quite well-prepared. However, these items and martial arts are indeed of a rather low level. They really are rather petty."
He had thought that he would be able to see the powerful martial arts of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, the Six Pa.s.sages Divine Sword, the Great Universal Dimensional Shift, and the Nine Suns Divine Art.
However, in the beginning of all these games, it was certain that they would not give away anything too good to a player. As a veteran gamer, Xiang Yun could understand this."But how do we play with this thing?" Xiang Yun looked at this incomparably gigantic disc. It did not have a keyboard nor a mouse, and even Xiang Yun did not know how to operate it.
However, just as Xiang Yun was feeling puzzled over this, that robotic voice suddenly rang out, "The Golden Soldier, Wuxia System, can be controlled by the host"s will directly!"
"What?" Xiang Yun had not thought that the game would actually answer his question directly. Could it be that this game could detect what he was thinking?"The host and the system are telepathically linked, so your thoughts will be automatically transmitted to the system." The system made a sound again.
This time, Xiang Yun"s mouth was wide open in shock, not knowing what to say.
He could not help but sigh inwardly. Wasn"t this game a little too advanced? Still, this was still just a dream. No matter how strange this game was, it was still just an illusion. Xiang Yun consoled himself like this.
Immediately afterwards, Xiang Yun adjusted his state of mind, preparing to play this game. He immediately asked the system with his mind, "Then, what should I do next?"
"Host, you only need to use your mind to control the spinning wheel. You can proceed with the lottery draw. The lottery draw rules are given once a month!" The System replied."What monthly lottery draw!" Hearing the system"s introduction, Xiang Yun was immediately a little speechless.
He thought to himself, this game is really stingy. Even if it was a normal lottery draw in the Jin Yong world, it would still happen once a day.
Fortunately, he was just dreaming. He would probably be done for after a single slap, and there was no need to compare notes with Xiang Yun.
Following the system"s notification, he immediately prepared to start the operation of the wheel.
"Turn for me!" Xiang Yun suddenly shouted in his heart!"Ding! Ding! Ding!" Following a light and lively sound similar to a jingling bell, a spot of light suddenly lit up on the enormous disk.
Just like the specks of light from the slot machines in his previous life, they began spinning with Xiang Yun"s will!
"The host can choose to stop at a suitable time!" Just as the light dot was about to revolve around the disk, the system prompted.
Xiang Yun inwardly nodded his head but did not think too much about it. After all, this was something that could only be drawn through luck. Thus, he watched as the speck of light quickly rotated for a moment, then casually activated the command in his heart.
"Stop!"
Following a thought from Xiang Yun, the originally rapidly spinning light spot began to slow down. The light spot"s speed became increasingly slower. Finally, with a clear "ding" sound like that of a jade striking, the light spot finally came to a stop.
"Congratulations, you have drawn an item category reward, "Five Poison Wine"!"
The system immediately sounded out a prompt. Xiang Yun looked carefully and saw that the dot of light had indeed stopped in the "Five Poison Wine" sector of the martial arts secret manual."d.a.m.n, how could it be this thing?"
When Xiang Yun saw the item he had drawn, he couldn"t help but break out in cold sweat. To be honest, out of all the items on the plate, the one he disliked the most was this Five Poison Wine.
Because the Five Poison Wine was really quite disgusting, Jin Yong"s novel, "Laughing proudly in the River", had once appeared. The Five Poison Sect"s Sect Leader, the Indigo Phoenix, gave a jar of wine soaked in a snake, scorpion, centipede, gecko, and toad to the seriously injured Linghu Chong as a tonic for his injuries.
The wine given by the Indigo Phoenix was the famous Five Poison Wine. Not only was the wine not poisonous, but because it contained all sorts of poisons, they were mutually exclusive. It actually became a holy medicine to expel the poison from one"s body and replenish one"s strength, which was difficult for ordinary martial artists to enjoy.Although the Five Poison Wine had an extraordinary origin and had excellent effects, Xiang Yun was still somewhat disgusted and afraid of scorpions, centipedes, snakes and other poisonous substances. Thus, he naturally did not like the Five Poison Wine that was being soaked in it.
Xiang Yun had not thought that the first reward he would draw would actually be a jar of Five Poison Wine. He immediately felt somewhat disappointed, but luckily, all of this was just a dream. There was no need to take it too seriously.
Just as Xiang Yun was thinking about this, he suddenly felt a pain in his head. A buzzing sound rang out in his mind as a surge of information flooded into his brain like a tidal wave!
Immediately afterwards, Xiang Yun discovered that something had suddenly appeared within his mind. It was a huge wine vat, at least half the height of a man, with a vat mouth that was almost a meter in diameter.
The wine vats were sealed with red kraft paper and mud, not even a hint of alcohol reeking. On the vats, there were even black and white words written on the red bottom of the vats.
Looking at the wine vat before him, Xiang Yun felt that it was incomparably real, as though he could touch it with his bare hands. It was extremely mystical.
"This game is too realistic. It can actually send items directly into my brain!" Xiang Yun felt a wave of shock in his heart as he thought to himself, Isn"t my imagination really too rich? It"s just a dream, yet I could actually dream of such a mystical game.
Just as Xiang Yun was astonished and feeling that this was a very interesting thought, a crisp ding sound suddenly rang out. The system notification suddenly rang out.
"Host, this is the first time that you"ve completed the lottery and completed the hidden quest. You"re rewarded with a low level martial arts technique of the same level!"
"What?! There"s even a reward!" Hearing the system"s prompt, Xiang Yun was first taken aback, before a look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face.It was at this moment that that feeling from before appeared in Xiang Yun"s mind. Information flooded into his mind like floodwaters, and when he finally awoke, there was already a movement technique manual within his mind.
"The Divine Path"s Hundred Transformations!"
"Holy s.h.i.t, it"s actually the G.o.dspeed Hundred Transformations Movement Technique!" When Xiang Yun saw this name, he immediately became excited. Out of all the Qing Gong martial arts techniques in Jin Yong"s novels, this was the one Xiang Yun wanted to learn the most.
Other than those peerless lightness skills that could soar through the sky at any time, the first thing he wanted to learn was the Lifesaving Hundred Transformations, the Life-Protection movement that the Single Armed Deity Ni had taught Wei Xiaobao in the Book of Lu Ding.
Because Wei Xiaobao did not know any martial arts, but he had low internal force, so he had imparted this technique to him. He did not need internal force to display it, but he could dodge the enemy"s attacks with a strange and tricky body, as if he was playing hide-and-seek with the enemy.Furthermore, the Hundred Transformations of the G.o.dly Path was divided into three levels. The first level was created by applying oil on the soles of one"s feet, causing one"s body to move in a strange and fast manner.
The second level was called "Gecko Wall Climbing". After training, climbing over the wall and entering the house was like walking on flat ground.As the name implies, after the third level, "Loach Drill", the entire body will be like a loach. Even a martial arts master will find it hard to catch you, and if you have the inner force to use this technique, you can use your inner force to spin and remove the external force.
However, although this movement technique was powerful, the biggest flaw was that when it was used, one could not attack others.
This was because when you attacked others, your strength would slip away by itself, so after you mastered this movement technique, you would not be able to defeat others, but it would also be very difficult for you to be defeated by others.In the past, Wei Xiaobao had relied on this absolute art to escape from all kinds of dangers and ascend to the heavens. Only in the end could he achieve the glory of Lord Wei, or else he would have died long ago.
Xiang Yun had not expected that he would actually be so lucky as to receive a gift package from the system. Not only that, he had even obtained the movement martial arts that he yearned for so much in his dreams.
After obtaining the "Hundred Transformations of the Divine Path", the movement technique and moves of the "Hundred Transformations of the Divine Path" naturally appeared in Xiang Yun"s mind. However, they were merely the cultivation techniques and moves of the first level of the "Hundred Transformations of the Divine Path".
Even so, the true feeling of having the martial arts already etched into his heart made Xiang Yun feel that this game was incomparably novel and interesting.
"If this was a real game, it wouldn"t be a dream." At this moment, Xiang Yun couldn"t help but have this thought. If he could really cultivate these martial arts, Xiang Yun felt that he would probably be able to laugh himself awake even in his dreams.
As Xiang Yun was thinking about this, the system"s voice suddenly resounded in his mind."Host has accepted the reward. The host will automatically accept Jin Yong"s Martial Arts System Core Quest!"
"What?" Xiang Yun couldn"t help but be stunned, thinking to himself, I haven"t accepted any kind of mission at all, why would I have to accept some kind of core mission? What did that mean?
