Chapter 5: The High Temple, the Faraway World
The dark night rain was knocking on the earth as dully as an old man ringing a bell.
The raindrops splashing on the ground were like whips lashing everything around.
It was almost curfew in the small town and everything was pitch black.
The few guards guarding the city gate were bored and hurriedly finished their work and prepared to close the gate. They either went home to hug their wives and take a good sleep, or went to the dark leopard room to spend some money.
Jiang Dali had been prepared and walked to an empty corner of the city wall and blew a whistle.
A black shadow with its feathers wet by rain fell from the sky and grabbed him with its sharp claws.
A clear message appeared on the eagle's forehead, and only Jiang Dali could see it clearly.
"The Sword Gate Pass Demon Eagle
Master: Jiang Dali. "
Jiang Dali reached up and grabbed the base of the sharp claw, and a powerful force burst out from the moment the magic eagle flapped its wings.
Jiang Dali also used this momentum to rush forward quickly, raised his feet, and pushed against the city wall, quickly climbing over the nearly four-meter-high wall, and his figure disappeared outside the wall.
If you want to be an assassin, you must have great martial arts skills.
However, this world of martial arts is so realistic that it is difficult to master the art of lightness.
It has been more than three years since Jiang Dali was forced to stay in this world of martial arts.
Although he learned a tough iron shirt from the stronghold leader Xiong Ba, and learned hidden weapon skills and light body skills "Eight Steps to Chase the Toad" from the second in command "Death Scholar", he was still unable to cross the four-zhang (more than 13 meters) high city wall alone, and was an unknown person in this world.
However, according to calculations, in three days a meteor will fall from the sky. According to the sorcerers, a strange man will be born into the world.
By then, Jiang Dali's opportunity will officially arrive.
“What strange people? They are just some players appearing on the stage.
According to the timeline, it is now mid-May in the 134th year of the Zongwu World Calendar, and these should be the players in the first batch of the internal test.
But if I use it well, it should bring me a lot of benefits..."
Jiang Dali found the horse he had tied up in the coniferous forest outside the city.
He took off the straw raincoat from the horse and wrapped it around himself, took out some dry food and steamed buns to eat to replenish his strength, then climbed onto the horse, feeling excited.
As a veteran player who has been playing the game "Zongwu World" for more than four years, Jiang Dali . He was not far from those famous masters who were the kings. He could be regarded as a minor celebrity in the game "Zongwu World".
However, what he didn't expect was that when he accidentally obtained the evil king's relics in the Yangzhou treasure house, he inexplicably lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, he had become a small bandit leader in a small mountain village in this world of martial arts.
This world is simply a hodgepodge of various familiar martial arts novel forces, characters, and historical events.
The world is full of treacherous rivers and lakes, numerous sects, and numerous masters.
There is the Emperor sitting in the court, and the emperor's magic fist dominates the world. He has trained many masters, including the East and West Factories, the Six Gates, the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and the Imperial Palace.
In the martial arts world, there is one god, two queens, three immortals, four Buddhas, five kings, six lords, seven demons and eight kings who roam freely in the world.
There is a person who never misses his target when throwing a flying knife.
There are people with extremely strong passion whose sword is unstoppable.
There are people with twenty-eight unrivaled palms who can turn the world upside down.
Someone took out a magic knife to kill gods and destroy Buddhas.
In short, this world is so big and there are so many masters. Even though Jiang Dali has been a top master among players for four years, he is still just a master on the Earth List in the martial arts world and can't even reach the Heaven List.
In this life, he is just a template of a bandit leader NPC when he first appears. He is a model of not living long and may be killed by the players who come soon.
Jiang Dali then tried to commit suicide prematurely, trying to leave this world through suicide.
But in the end, I found that I couldn't leave at all.
After he committed suicide, he was resurrected from the City God Temple in a nearby city just like the player.
The only price to pay is that all the martial arts levels and strengths learned will be reduced by half.
This is clearly absurd.
Because this world is real, it doesn't seem like a game, but a real world with flesh and blood.
In the past two years, he has been eating and drinking well every day, and the only thing he has lacked is finding a wife and retiring from the world.
But he was still unwilling and wanted to find a way to go back.
The only thing he could do was to continue to become stronger, strong enough to obtain the Evil Emperor's relics in Yang Gong's treasury, then there might be hope.
Although he did not acquire any powerful skills or weapons in the past two years, he has done a lot of groundwork for dominating the martial arts world in the future. When the time is ripe when the players arrive, he can prepare to close the net.
But now, although he appears to be the third in command of the Black Wind Village on the surface, his actual identity is actually a killer of the Qingyi Tower.
By relying on each other's overt and covert identities, more things can be accomplished and more resources and intelligence can be obtained.
Jiang Dali's eyes flashed, and a transparent box similar to the player attribute template appeared before his eyes again.
"Jiang Dali [The Third Chief of Black Wind Village (Minor Boss of the Gathering Strength Realm), HP 3000/3000, Internal Qi 0/0]
Realm: Concentrated Strength Realm (92/100)
Status: One of the three leaders of Black Wind Village/The Iron-clad Killer of Qingyi Building
Jianghu Title Reputation: Slightly Notorious (340/500)
Pet: Jianmenguan Magic Eagle
Martial arts: Hidden weapons: ordinary middle-grade "Flying rain all over the sky" (slightly accomplished in level 3)
Fists and kicks: basic "Four-way Fist", basic "Six-way Kick", basic "Eight-way Palm"

Light Kung Fu: Lower level of the ordinary level "Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada" (2nd level to get a glimpse of the method)
Internal strength: None
Cultivation points: 53
Potential points: 72”
He hesitated for a moment.
Jiang Dali chose to continue to spend all the 50 cultivation points he had worked so hard to obtain on improving his realm, leaving only 3 points left.
Immediately, the cultivation points were consumed.
He felt as if the little bit of dry food he had just eaten had turned into hot currents running through his body. The heat made all his pores open up and he sweated profusely.
The next moment, the number 92/100 after reaching the state of concentration became 97/100.
Jiang Dali let out a breath, his eyes sparkled in the darkness, and he couldn't help but smile.
He is only 27 points away from 30 cultivation points, and then he can break through the realm directly from the Gathering Strength Realm to the same Inner Strength Realm as Qiu Xuemei.
All he needs to do is return to the village and complete the mission, and that will be the moment of his breakthrough.
…
Two days later.
On a remote mountain road more than thirty miles away from the Black Wind Village.
The shadows of the trees swayed, and the summer cicadas chirped endlessly in the woods.
The Deadly Scholar and two of his confidants had been waiting here for a long time. One of them would occasionally lie prone on the ground and listen for the sound of horse hooves in the distance.
One of them looked a little nervous and said, "Second boss, why hasn't the third boss shown up yet? If it's any later, I'm afraid the first boss will have noticed something."
The Deadly Scholar smiled calmly and said, "Don't panic. With the horse's stamina, it should be here in less than three incense sticks."
Another person stood up after hearing this. "The Third Master has inherited all your skills in hidden weapons, and has mastered the Iron Shirt and Tiger Killer Golden Ring Knife to perfection. He is very good at both long-range and short-range combat. This time he was able to kill an Inner Qi master like Qiu Xuemei, but he is really not easy to deal with."
The Fatal Scholar chuckled, "It doesn't matter. I taught him his hidden weapon, so I can collect it the same way he puts it.
This martial art was the first to be abolished.
As for the others... you two are also experts in the Force Gathering Realm. If the three of us attack together, no matter how ferocious he is, he will be unintentional, hehe...
When he dies, I will naturally promote you two to be the third and fourth in command."
"Hehehe, thank you for your support, Second Master. Also, Third Master doesn't know that we have bad intentions."
The two bandit leaders all laughed when they heard this. The fear and trepidation in their hearts also dissipated, and they all looked a little relaxed...
