Chapter 124: Chapter 81: Fivefold Secret Martial Arts, Enchantment of Winds, Moon, and White Bones versus Vajra
’It seems there are still benefits.’
Li Xuan murmured to himself.
He perceived the changes around him and then looked at the Dusk Flame Earth Fire Pill Root Map of the "Demon-Breaking Saber."
...
...
Seven days later, Li Xuan emerged from the room with reddened eyes and went to the southern room to get some food.
These foods were mostly ready-to-eat, but due to physical limitations, ordinary people would become sick or weak after eating them, and long-term consumption could lead to serious illness. However, the construction of this Secret Martial Arts treasury was clearly not based on ordinary people’s considerations.
Li Xuan ate the food voraciously and then swallowed a bottle of "Great Blood Qi Pill."
After doing this, he returned and took out the Vajra Body’s root map and the second drop of magical blood.
...
...
Time flew by.
In the underground stone chamber, there was no day or night.
In such a place, Li Xuan did not infuse magical blood, so his Spirit Attribute was only relatively high.
He maintained the pace of "mastering a Secret Martial Art every seven days," successfully cultivating the secret martial arts of Vajra Body and Fire Sun Divine Skill.
The three root maps naturally underwent mutations.
However, unlike before...
The three root maps, transformed due to the magical blood, were like three jigsaw pieces, forming a complete picture.
Li Xuan closed his eyes, as if he were in the scene.
The Celestial Maiden’s Feathered Robe, with white thighs protruding from the split of the gauze skirt, her alluring body enchanting, yet her face was a chilling skull. In her hand, she held a wondrous pill, seeming to dance lightly in the air.
Below those many white legs was a solemnly seated Vajra, brow furrowed, with fiery streams coursing through the seven orifices.
Standing before this brand-new, complete root map, even though he was immersed in the scene, Li Xuan could not integrate into it.
He observed for a while, then temporarily withdrew.
He glanced at the panel.
The original attributes were:
[Strength: 30/30]
[Agility: 36/36]
[Physique: 25/30]
[Spirit: 25/30]
Now, a Demon Point had automatically decreased by 1 point, and then it changed to:
[Strength: 40/40]
[Agility: 46/46]
[Physique: 38/38]
[Spirit: 25/30].
’The changes are significant, it’s like breaking through the limit of my Innate Talent.
Otherwise, my strength, agility, and physique could each increase by 20 points.
As for physique, it should have increased by 5 points first, and because the remaining 15 points weren’t enough to break through, an extra 1 point was taken from my Demon Points.’
Li Xuan glanced again at the [Secret Martial Arts] column.
He saw that its information had also changed:
[Secret Martial Arts]
One: Wind and Moon White Bone Tempt Vajra (LV2)
Two: Melting Copper Hell Little Ghost Root Map (LV1)
Three: Dusk Flame Earth Fire Pill Root Map (LV1), Noon Field Shepherd Boy Root Map (LV1)
’The words "root map" have disappeared, and compared to a root map, this is more like a painting.
A painting I need to integrate into.’
Li Xuan pondered.
Such a system of strength is extraordinarily mysterious and can only be explored slowly.
However, since there are predecessors available here, I might as well just go and ask them.’
With this thought, Li Xuan steadied his mind and went directly to the small eastern room, paused slightly, and intended to knock on the door.
However, before he knocked, he heard a low, terrifying roar emanating from inside, like a traveler’s scream of horror at midnight, but muffled by someone’s hand.
Frowning, he withdrew his hand and walked towards the western small room.
This time, there was no movement from inside, so he knocked on the door.
Shortly, the door opened.
A tall woman in purple stood behind it, her face beautiful, her gaze haughty, and a flower ornament on her forehead, like a queen descending.
"Senior Sister Pang." Li Xuan saluted.
Pang Wuyue obviously knew he would come and that the Prime Minister had placed great expectations on him.
She wouldn’t feel jealous of newcomers.
Although she thought that a "Martial Artist with Five Secret Arts" might be unreliable, she did not say much, withdrew her haughty expression, and spoke warmly, "What brings you here?"
Li Xuan then recounted the cause and effect and the confusion he encountered.
After speaking, he gazed with a fascinated expression, "As a junior brother, I could see that Celestial Maiden’s skull; it was truly enchanting, yet her skull face was extremely terrifying; I could also see the solemn Vajra below, meditating with closed eyes, and fire flowing through its seven orifices. But I don’t understand its meaning or how to cultivate it."
Pang Wuyue was stunned after hearing him out.
"You... you’ve completed all three secret martial arts?"
Li Xuan nodded and said, "Precisely because I completed them, I saw this picture.
When it comes to the root map, I view it from the outside.
This picture, I have fully immersed myself in it.
Yet even when immersed, I cannot find out where I am within or how to cultivate it."
"You..."
Pang Wuyue found it hard not to be shocked.
She calculated the time and said, "The Prime Minister gave you six months, but now it’s not even a month, right? You..."
Suddenly, her expression became sharp, and she said, "Since we are from the same sect, let’s use the same moves and have a try."
Li Xuan knew she wanted to test him, so he didn’t say much.
He took half a step back; his entire body instantly turned into a golden hue, forming twin blades with his hands without drawing his saber.
Pang Wuyue focused on him, and her skin transformed into gold at a rapid pace.
Immediately, the two closed in and exchanged rapid blows.
Their hand blades clashed, exploding with thunder, causing streams of fire to erupt in mid-air.
Junior brother and senior sister came from the same sect, neither breaking the other’s move.
However, though Pang Wuyue’s strength was strong, her speed was completely suppressed by Li Xuan, narrowly escaping Li Xuan’s attacks several times.
Boom!
The twin blades collided like two fiery meteors, scattering slender streams of fire in the air before dissipating again.
Li Xuan wanted to press the attack.
Pang Wuyue waved her hand and said, "No need to continue. If we do, my demonic form will be forced out by you."
Li Xuan clasped his fists from a distance and said, "It’s senior sister letting me win."
Pang Wuyue blinked at him, at a loss for words for a long time, and finally sighed, "This Great Yin for hundreds of years... more than just a chaotic era of demons and monsters, it has also brought about a genius like you.
Come, let senior sister teach you..."
