At the Xu residence.
In the study.
When Han Zhao arrived, Xu Ling was sitting in an armchair with a solemn expression. Beside her were Zhao Yuantu and Feng Xiao. Both of them were pale and emitted a faint smell of blood. Zhao Yuantu’s left arm was still bandaged.
“Senior Sister Xu, Eldest Senior Brother, Elder Feng.”
“Junior Martial Brother Han, you’re here!” Xu Ling’s expression turned from gloomy to sunny.
After experiencing it again and again, she trusted Han Zhao more and more. She was filled with confidence in him. Even if Feng Xiao, who had a third Blood Qi Breakthrough, and Zhao Yuantu, who had a second Blood Qi Breakthrough, couldn’t solve the problem, she would have an inexplicable feeling that Han Zhao could handle it. “Junior Brother Han.”
“Brother Han.”
Zhao Yuantu and Feng Xiao stood up to greet him.
“Eldest Senior Brother, Elder Feng, take a seat.” Han Zhao walked forward and gestured for the two of them not to get up. Then, he asked, “What kind of enemy did you encounter? Why did it become like this?”
“We’re not sure either. It was fine when we went. When we came back with the payment and the deposit for the new order, we were robbed halfway.”
Zhao Yuantu was a little depressed.
“There is no Force Tempering Martial Master in that group, but there are six Blood Tempering Realm martial artists. Their individual strength is probably between the first and second Blood Qi Breakthrough, so they’re not difficult to deal with. The main thing is that they know a special explosive secret technique. Their skin will instantly turn red, and their strength and speed will increase explosively,” Feng Xiao added.
“Elder Feng and I each killed one person, but we were also injured by the other party’s final counterattack.” Zhao Yuantu frowned.
“Unfortunately, the corpses were taken away by the other party. Otherwise, we
could investigate what kind of secret technique it was and find a wav to deal
with it,” Feng Xiao said in a low voice.
Exploding a secret technique and turning their skin red. Why does it look so similar to the Blood Spirit Policy… Han Zhao’s heart stirred.
“The losses this time are not small. Moreover, if we can’t complete the transaction, we have to pay double the deposit. Most importantly, we have to give up on the business path in Jiayuan City in the future. This group of people is not something one or two third Blood Qi Breakthrough experts can deal with. As for inviting a Force Tempering Martial Master, even if we can afford it, we won’t be able to find them.
Xu Ling sighed.
Martial Masters in the Martial Master Academy had to maintain a neutral stance. This was the rule and could not be broken.
Otherwise, Lu Yi would definitely be willing to help.
Junior Brother Han’s combat strength was powerful, but she did not want him to take the risk.
“That’s easy. I know a friend in Jade Wind City. If I ask him for help, I should be able to resolve this trouble,” Han Zhao said in a low voice.
“That friend of yours is a Force Tempering Martial Master?!” Feng Xiao looked happy.
“No.” Han Zhao shook his head.
“Third Blood Qi Breakthrough…” Feng Xiao was a little disappointed.
“But he killed a Martial Master,” Han Zhao added.
“What?!”
“Huh?”
“Killing a Martial Master with the strength of the third Blood Qi Breakthrough?!”
Xu Ling, Zhao Yuantu, and Feng Xiao were stunned.
“I once heard that quasi-Martial Masters who cultivate powerful cultivation methods or have many types of Internal Force can defeat some weaker Force Tempering Martial Masters. I didn’t expect it to be true,” Feng Xiao sighed.
With his understanding of Han Zhao, the other party would not lie.
“I can’t guarantee that I can definitely invite him, so…” Han Zhao didn’t finish his sentence.
“Understood.” Xu Ling nodded. “There are still twenty days left to escort the goods. We can set off in ten days at the latest. There’s still time. We’ll wait for your reply.”
“Alright, I’ll go back and prepare now.” Han Zhao got up and went home.
When he returned home, Han Zhao closed the door tightly and muttered,
“System.”
[Collected 50 Notification Fragments. Do you want to synthesize the Trait?] [Each synthesis will consume 45 Notification Fragments and 60 taels of gold…]
[Current Balance: 110 taels of gold]
“Synthesize. Beginning simulation.”
[20 years old. Your Mountain Splitting Saber Technique, Mountain Shaking Fist, Yin Fiend Palm, and Wind Riding Leg broke through to the Third Level one after another. Your strength increased greatly.]
[The joint caravan of the Xu and Su families has been robbed. You have decided to disguise yourself as Xiong Ba and follow the team to Jiayuan City.]
[On the way, you were attacked by the Longevity Sect’s disciples. You used the Wind Riding Leg to move through the crowd and relied on the combination of the Yin Fiend Palm and Life Nurturing True Qi to kill the other party.]
[The Longevity Sect disciples were defeated. In order to find out their base, you chased after them alone.]
[At this moment, a descendant of an aristocratic family appeared. The other party held a halberd.]
[During the battle, you discovered that the other party’s halberd technique was exquisite, but his actual combat experience was too weak and filled with loopholes.]
[However, the power of this halberd was astonishing. You didn’t dare to use the black gold gloves to resist it head-on. In the end, you took out the Severing Karma Saber to fight the enemy.]
[Weapons clashed. The black-red gem on the halberd continuously releases Yin energy. It enters your body through the Severing Karma Saber and gradually paralyzes your limbs.]
[You gradually fell into a disadvantage and decided to take the risk. During the battle, you used the Yin Fiend Palm to absorb and refine the Yin energy in your body.]
[Very soon, your Yin Fiend Force transformed into the Yin Internal Force of Extreme Yin and Evil.]
[The other party realized that something was wrong, but it was too late. You had already gained the upper hand.]
[After a long battle, you used all your true qi to activate the Sword Drawing Technique and killed the other party.]
[When collecting the spoils of war, your body came into contact with the black-red gem on the halberd. A special power entered your body along with Yin energy.]
[21 years old. Your Yin Fiend Palm was the first to grasp Internal Force, followed by the Mountain Splitting Saber Technique, the Mountain Shaking Fist, and the Wind Riding Leg.]
[In a battle with the Longevity Sect, you encountered a member of the secret guards.]
[The other party was chasing after the descendants of the Chu Country’s aristocratic families who are undergoing a blood sacrifice in Yuan Chang
County.]
[The other party was very willing to fork out money and you were invited to
join the secret guards.]
[Half a year later, you encountered an aristocratic family disciple in a battle.
Halfway through the battle, another aristocratic family disciple appeared.] [You died.]
“A disciple of the Chu Country’s aristocratic family? Could it be the matter that the three sisters of the Lian family mentioned?”
Looking at the information in the simulation, Han Zhao’s expression changed slightly.
This halberd looked like the divine weapon Ji Zhuling had mentioned, but it was worlds apart from the power she had described.
It was probably a pseudo-divine weapon, and it was even inferior among pseudo-divine weapons.
Of course, the weaker the better.
Even if Han Zhao used all his methods, he only had the strength of the Force Tempering Realm. Whether he could defeat the Greater Mastery of Force Tempering was still a question.
The fact that the other party could fight him for a long time and be exhausted to death by him in the end meant that his strength was around the Bind-level ‘one vein’, which was the level of a normal Force Tempering Martial Master.
Regardless of whether it was a divine weapon or not, it was good if it could help him master the Yin Fiend Palm. [1: Obtain Trait (Not Selectable)] [2: Obtained attribute points]
[3: Obtain any part of the life experience.]
[Current Balance: 50 taels of gold]
“Two.”
[Attribute Points +18]
Martial Arts:
Mountain Shaking Fist (Third Level Small Mastery 9%, Upgradeable: Special Effect: Explosion Level 3, Mountain Shaking Force Level 2)
Yin Fiend Palm (Third Level Entry Level 70%, Upgradeable; Special Effect:
Poison Avoidance Level 4, Yin Fiend Force Level 1)
Wind Riding Leg (Third Level Entry Level 36%, Upgradeable; Special Effect: Rapid Speed Level 4, Wind Riding Force Level 2)
“Can I fuse the Three Essence Force in advance?”
Han Zhao thought to himself.
Then, he muttered to himself, “System, add points according to the method where Mountain Shaking Force, Yin Fiend Force, and Wind Riding Force can be perfectly fused.” [An additional 30 taels of gold will be consumed.]
“It really works?!”
Han Zhao’s eyes lit up.
“Consume 30 taels of gold, use up my attribute points!!”
[Current Balance: 20 taels of gold]
[Attribute Points: 18 —+ 14]
Mountain Shaking Fist (Third Level Greater Mastery 99%, Upgradeable:
Special Effect: Explosion Level 4, Mountain Shaking Force Level 3)
[Attribute Points: 14 —+ 8]
Yin Fiend Palm (Third Level Greater Mastery 66%, Upgradeable; Special Effect: Poison Avoidance Level 5, Yin Fiend Force Level 3)
[Attribute Points: 8-9 0]
Wind Riding Leg (Third Level Greater Mastery 33%, Upgradeable; Special
Effect: Rapid Speed Level 5, Wind Riding Force Level 4)
[Mountain Shaking Force, Yin Fiend Force, and Wind Riding Force are almost perfectly proportioned. The success rate of fusion is 98%.]
[Current Yin Fiend Force lacks Yin energy and does not have the chilling Yin characteristic. You have to be careful when absorbing Yin energy. The progress of the Yin Fiend Palm cannot exceed the progress of the Mountain Shaking Fist. Otherwise, it will cause the Three Essence Force to collapse.]
[When the Mountain Shaking Force, Yin Fiend Force, and Wind Riding Force are perfected, the Three Essence Force will not be affected by this ratio.]
As the attribute points were distributed, Han Zhao felt the Blood Imprint in his palms and legs quickly increase.
At the same time, the corresponding Internal Force also strengthened.
Under his control, the three types of Internal Force finally gathered in his palm and became one.
“I’m not afraid of you asking for money. I’m only afraid that you can’t do anything!” Feeling this powerful Internal Force that was drawn in but not released, Han Zhao smiled.
It seemed that as the amount of money charged increased, the system function became more and more comprehensive.
If it was before, the system would not have such a function at all.
“Since it hasn’t reached the Greater Mastery, let’s call it the Smaller Three Essence Force.”
“It’s time for Sect Master Xiong Ba to appear!”
