Chapter 67 He's waiting for us up ahead!
Xiao Bieli searched the bodies of Situ Kong and the fifth-rank expert who came with Situ Kong, and found a Hidden Fragrance Pill on Situ Kong's body.
He also put away the Heart-Eating Pill that Situ Kong wanted to control.
Standing on the boat littered with corpses, Xiao Bieli looked in the direction he had come from and murmured:
"A Grandmaster has actually arrived from the Cangyuan Sword Sect!"
"However, we should not have arrived here yet. We can still reap one last harvest in this barbarian state."
"However, just to be on the safe side, let's upgrade the Three Blades of Avici Hell and see what level this Lord of Gu Family Fortress is at!"
One thought comes to this,
Xiao Bieli spoke softly:
"The Turtle Breathing Technique also includes the Ambidextrous Fighting Technique!"
boom!
In an instant, countless methods of practicing the Turtle Breathing Technique and the Ambidextrous Fighting Technique flooded into Xiao Bieli's mind, along with some experience in practicing the two martial arts.
A moment later, Xiao Bieli opened his eyes.
Swish!
He drew his red-sleeved knife from its sheath in his right hand, the blade gleaming, while his left hand clenched into a fist with his thumb extended outward, his fingers flashing as he multitasked, demonstrating his ability to do two things at once.
call!
Xiao Bieli exhaled a breath of stale air.
"The Ambidextrous Technique allows one to use two things at once, but my current proficiency is too low. To kill a martial artist below the Grandmaster level, one strike is enough. But against a Grandmaster, this level of proficiency in the Ambidextrous Technique is useless!"
"We don't have the extra experience to improve our ambidextrous fighting technique right now,"
"But this Turtle Breathing Technique... when cultivated to its peak, can even allow one to enter a state of suspended animation, concealing one's aura so that even a Grandmaster or even a Great Grandmaster would find it difficult to see through?"
"But there's no rush. Let's focus on mastering the Three Blades of Avici Hell before considering anything else!"
[Experience value: 16740]
"Consume all experience to upgrade the Avici Path Three Blades!"
【Avici Hell Three Knives (55/100)】
boom!
Countless experiences from cultivating the Three Blades of the Avici Hell flooded into Xiao Bieli's mind, and the demonic nature within him grew increasingly intense. At this moment, the Yi Jin True Qi also began to circulate on its own.
Rumble!
The true energy circulated wildly, and the muscles and bones resonated!
A sense of Buddhist nature appeared in Xiao Bieli, suppressing the demonic nature within him. If a Buddhist master were present, they would mistake Xiao Bieli for a master well-versed in Buddhist teachings.
Xiao Bieli opened his eyes, his gaze now clear, and sighed softly:
"Although the Three Blades of Avici Hell are very powerful, with my current understanding of swordsmanship, I can improve my proficiency quite a bit in a month even without experience. Internal energy cultivation is not like swordsmanship; it is a slow and steady process. If you have external martial arts or profound internal energy cultivation, it is more appropriate to improve those through experience!"
……
Another half hour.
The ships from the Twelve Linked Docks and the Three Rivers Alliance have arrived.
Qu Bufan and Han Guang exchanged a glance when they saw the motionless ship in the distance, still bearing the flag of Zhenwu Hall, and almost simultaneously leaped toward the Zhenwu Hall's large ship.
Before they even landed on the ship,
Both of them showed expressions of horror!
The ship was full of corpses, their faces still bearing resentment, but they had all been cut in half at the waist. Blood stained the deck of the large ship red, but the dark red blood had already congealed, indicating that the murderer had left.
The two landed on the boat and carefully examined the surroundings.
"what happened?"
Gu Xuan, the lord of Gu Family Fortress, appeared on the ship without a sound. Looking at the ship full of corpses, he frowned slightly.
Qu Bufan, carrying Situ Kong's head, walked up to Gu Xuan and whispered:
"They're from the Zhenwu Hall!"
"Situ Kong?" Gu Xuan frowned even more deeply.
Qu Bufan nodded:
"It is indeed Situ Kong!"
"The corpses on the ship, except for Situ Kong, should all have died from a single blow!"
"Xiao Bieli's martial arts skills have probably improved again!"
Gu Xuan shook his head:
"It's not progress!"
"Instead, it surpassed everything before by an unknown amount."
"It's not about improving one's skill level, but about gaining a deeper understanding of the sword!"
"Killing so many people with a single strike, including a fifth-rank official, Xiao Bieli is at least in the top fifteen of the Dragon and Tiger Ranking!"
Wow——!
Gu Xuan's voice was not soft; almost everyone heard it.
The whole place was in an uproar!
Top 15 on the Dragon and Tiger List?
That's a bit of an exaggeration!
It should be noted that those who have made it into the top fifteen of the Dragon and Tiger List throughout history, unless they die prematurely, are at least at the peak of the Grandmaster level, great masters who dominate a province, and many of them have even achieved the status of Grandmaster.
If Xiao Bieli was already close to thirty years old, they wouldn't be surprised to receive such praise from Master Gu.
But right now, Xiao Bieli is only seventeen years old. In a little over two months, he will be eighteen when this year comes!
A seventeen-year-old ranked fifteenth on the Dragon and Tiger List
If he doesn't die, it won't be long before he enters the top ten, or even the top five or top three of the Dragon and Tiger Ranking!
His name will be remembered for eternity!
Han Guang said in a deep voice:
"But he killed members of the Zhenwu Hall, and even the head of the Zhenwu Hall who was in charge of an entire prefecture!"
"The Zhenwu Hall will never let this matter rest!"
puff!
Gu Xuan sneered:
"The Zhenwu Hall is no longer the Zhenwu Hall it used to be; it can no longer dominate the martial arts world!"
"Moreover, factional strife is rampant within the Zhenwu Hall."
"Apart from the people behind Situ Kong, probably no one cares whether Situ Kong lives or dies!"
"Even the people behind Situ Kong might not be willing to fight Xiao Bieli to the death because of Situ Kong!"
"In the end, this world still comes down to strength."
"I estimate that at most, the Zhenwu Hall will put Xiao Bieli on the bounty list, but how many people will actually accept the bounty?"
"Given Xiao Bieli's current fearsome reputation, even some fifth-rank swordsmen would choose to take a detour if they saw him!"
Han Guang's face was grim, and he asked:
"Then what do we do?"
"Is that the end of it?"
Although he was also a fifth-rank official, he alone was not enough to support the Three Rivers Alliance. During this period, Xiao Bieli had almost wiped out all the experts in their two counties of Manzhou.
Many experts and forces from the other two prefectures have also entered.
They want a share of the profits from those two counties.
If it weren't for the Gu Family Fort's help, the Three Rivers Alliance would probably have been wiped out long ago.
All of this is thanks to Xiao Bieli.
Gu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly:
"Of course we should take advantage of his youth and beat him to death!"
"Although he possesses unparalleled talent, he is ultimately only a fifth-rank official!"
Qu Bufan hesitated and said:
"But we don't know where Xiao Bieli went?"
Gu Xuan smiled:
"Sword Intent!"
"A sharp blade is waiting for us ahead!"
"It must be Xiao Bieli!"
"Young people have their own arrogance. He thinks he's got some ability and doesn't take this old man like me seriously."
"Unfortunately, he didn't know the difference between the fourth and fifth ranks, so this time, he's doomed!"
