Volume 5: Return to Donghua Chapter 3 Separate Actions
The city of Jiandu is more than 200 kilometers away from Jiange. Qi Ji lent his spirit horse to Bai Tianhe, and he ran on his own feet.
On the way, Qi Ji silently reviewed his current strength and planned to face the next events in the best condition.
Obviously, from the mouth of the "guest", we learned that the enemy this time is the evil organization "Mirage" that had dared to organize many fourth-level masters to attack the sword-watching and martial arts competition jointly organized by several major forces in the East China Continent, and also the "Xuan Family" that is qualified to cooperate with it.
It is absolutely impossible for an evil organization to dare to act in this way under the control of all the major forces in the Donghua Continent without a fifth-level demigod in charge.
Therefore, Qi Ji directly anticipated the worst-case scenario, which was that he would most likely have to fight with the fifth-level person in the end.
Although he was now able to launch an attack that was considered powerful even at the fifth level with his full strength combined with Merlin's blessing, that attack could only be launched once.
After one blow, his body would be unable to continue fighting due to the huge load and reaction force.
Improving his strength is urgent for him.
After experiencing the last desperate situation of foreign demons in Daxia and killing the Grand Duke of the Blood Clan, his blood curse completely disappeared, and he gained a lot of transcendence points, which have now accumulated to 4480 points.
Similarly, five days had passed since he broke through the first level of the Berserker Stage. He had pushed through five more levels in the Secret Records of the Afterlife, and while acquiring four skills, he had also penetrated and closed this world of many breathing techniques.
First of all, the three skills of [Breath of Thunder], [Breath of Water], and [Breath of Love] are all directly inherited from one of the abilities of the target he defeated.
Among them, the first three breathing methods were all derived from Sun Breathing, so they were also absorbed and assimilated into the branches of Sun Breathing. The main effect was to enrich Qi Ji's moves.
The last opponent made him fail. That opponent was a creature called "Demon" that looked similar to humans. It called itself "Muzan" and possessed a strong body and terrifying recovery ability.
The reason for Qi Ji's failure was that after he "killed" this guy with all his strength, he did not expect that it was still secretly surviving and killed Qi Ji, who was weakened after the explosion. However, on the second day, after Qi Ji had fully understood its survival skills, he finally successfully killed it.
And right after the kill, he was also reminded that the ultimate target of this world had been killed.
After killing this "ghost", the skill gained is even more fantastic than the breathing method, called Blood Ghost Art. Moreover, this Blood Ghost Art is not a fixed ability, but an ability awakened according to Qi Ji's own characteristics.
[Blood Demon Art: Double Kill: Burns a large amount of one's own blood, forcing the opponent to attack at the same time as the user attacks]
What made things easier for him was that of the four new skills he acquired, the breathing technique was absorbed into the Breathing of the Sun and was set to the maximum level by default as soon as he acquired it, and the blood demon technique could not be upgraded either.
So there is nothing for him to worry about. He can just boldly add some points to his existing skills.
His choice is of course - Wuming Shenfengliu!
[Transcendence: 4480 → 1480]
[Wumingshen Fengliu·Missing (3000/3000) → Wumingshen Fengliu·True (0/5000)]
[Obtain special skills: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise]
As points were added, countless techniques about this super swordsmanship flooded into his mind, and he also comprehended four unique skills that could be called the mysteries.
However, he originally thought that he could use this to directly comprehend and enter the third level of the extraordinary level, but he did not expect that the route of this skill would diverge from the extraordinary system of the outside world.
When the supernatural system of the outer realm is in the third stage, it should still be strengthening the body by controlling the high-speed flow of supernatural factors in the body. It is not until the fourth stage that the supernatural factors in the body can be made to appear outside the body to form armor.
However, the third stage of Wuming Shenfengliu, through the use of four secret techniques, allows the user to skip the stage of strengthening the body and even the stage of fourth-level armor. It directly uses swordsmanship to manipulate the extraordinary factors outside the body to stimulate the airflow, forming four sacred visions attached to the user's body surface, thereby adding powerful explosive power in an instant.
This additional explosive force probably reaches about fifty tons.
Unfortunately, Qi Ji instinctively felt that these additional powers, because they were the extraordinary powers between heaven and earth, seemed to be the same as the first special effect that Merlin blessed him with, and could not be doubled again by the degree of transcendence.
That’s right, transcendence can only enhance the user’s own mental and physical functions, but cannot enhance the power of various external supernatural powers or special effects.
Although to some extent what was increased was explosive power rather than normal combat capability, Qi Ji's strength was still significantly improved.
…
Three hours later, Qi Ji and Bai Tianhe, who were traveling at high speed, arrived at the city gate of Jiandu.
As extraordinary people, as soon as they arrived at the city gate checkpoint, the relevant detection alarm facilities immediately sounded.
The guards at the city gate immediately formed a formation with serious expressions to stop the two men.
"Two masters, please stop!"
The captain of the guard came forward, looked at the two of them and said respectfully: "Extraordinary people need to show relevant documents to enter the sword. Please cooperate with us."
Qi Ji and Bai Tianhe looked at each other and stopped silently.
Qi Ji took the initiative to say to the captain: "We are from Jiange. Please report to your superiors that there is a little trouble in Jiange. Please ask him to talk to us in person."
Jiange?
The captain of the guards immediately became serious. Everyone in Jiandu knew that the safety of Jiandu could only be sustained under the protection of Jiange, the top power in the foreign land. But now the two young men in front of them said that there was a problem with Jiange...
The captain nodded and said, "Then please move to the side and wait. I will report it immediately."
Qi Ji nodded: "Then thank you for your help."
Led by the guards, the two went to the pavilion next to the city gate to wait.
Qi Ji glanced at Bai Tianhe, who had been frowning since he left Jiange, and couldn't help asking, "You look so sad all the way, what are you thinking about?"
Bai Tianhe raised his head and met Qi Ji's gaze. He was silent for a while, then said softly, "I have been assessing your strength all the way here, and the result has left me very frustrated."
Qi Ji probably understood what the other party meant, but still shook his head and said, "I am different from you. You have reached such a level, you are already a genius unprecedented in history."
Bai Tianhe said calmly, "I'm not belittling myself, but the fact is that in the short term, it will be difficult for me to play a role by accompanying you. I may even become a burden. I don't like this feeling."
He looked at Qi Ji seriously and said, "In order not to drag you down, I am afraid that I will have to act separately from you. You will go to the Western Region alone first, and I will cooperate with the City Lord's Mansion in Jiandu to try to contact the high-level officials of Jian Pavilion so that they can understand the situation in time, so that it will be convenient to bring them to support . What do you think?"
Qi Ji thought about it and agreed with Bai Tianhe's idea.
Neither of them is the type to be pretentious, and since things have been made clear, they should just do things in the most reasonable way.
Therefore, after communicating with the city lord who responded quickly, Bai Tianhe was left in Jiandu to be responsible for contacting and supporting Jiange.
Qi Ji boarded a small airship alone and officially started his journey to the western region of Donghua Continent.
