Advance Cultivation: From a Miscellaneous Servant in a Chaotic World to a Lawful Martial Saint

Chapter 48: Thunderclap Blade Technique

Thunderclap Saber Technique.

Wu He casually flipped through a few pages, a slight smile playing on his lips.

The martial arts in this world are also divided into high and low levels, namely the four ranks of Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow, which were established by the Hundred Knowledge Sect, one of the pioneers of the martial arts world.

Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, their first three generations of masters traveled all over China, visiting martial artists from all over the country. After rigorous research, they compared the martial arts known in the martial arts world, which was quite an amazing feat.

Subsequently, not only martial arts, but also martial artists, weapons, elixirs, and so on, were all sorted and compiled by the disciples of the Hundred Knowledge Sect into a book called "The Ranking of Heroes," which held considerable authority in the martial arts world.

Li Bo was genuinely surprised to find a Xuan-level martial art here.

The next morning.

As the morning light began to fall, Wu He arrived at the camp early.

"Advance payment!"

[Martial Arts Advance Payment: Introduction to Thunderclap Saber Technique]

[The blade flashes, cutting through the wind with a sound like thunder; a swift flash, and it slices through gold.]

[Next stage advance: Minor mastery of the Thunderclap Blade Technique]

[His body moved with the blade, his momentum like thunder; a single strike, and a corpse lay fallen a hundred paces away.]

The essence of swordsmanship poured into his brain, and after a slight throbbing pain subsided, Wu He regained his senses.

He then thoughtfully drew his Plum Blossom Knife and began to circulate his energy according to the techniques of knife fighting.

As the blood and qi in his chest began to circulate along a completely new route, Wu He suddenly felt the Plum Blossom Knife in his hand become as heavy as a thousand pounds, and almost dropped it before he could react.

Faintly, there were still faint sounds of thunder and explosions in my ears.

Whoosh~

With a thought that moved his mind, the knife moved with his will, and the Plum Blossom Knife slashed out!

The blade flashed like lightning, leaving trails of afterimages in the air, so fast that the first afterimage was still solid and tangible.

Whoosh~~

The next second, a section of the bluestone wall collapsed at an angle, the crack running through it completely, and so smooth that there wasn't even a single burr.

His eyes widened in surprise as he stared in disbelief at the knife in his hand. He hadn't expected that such a simple swing could be so fast and so sharp.

It was already comparable to the effect he achieved by combining the Golden Light Mantra with the Splashing Blade Technique.

Not bad!

Wu He was very satisfied and showed a relieved expression.

My adoptive father said that this sword technique was created by the Bad People during the Tang Dynasty. For this secretive organization that specializes in operating in the shadows, this kind of crisp, clean, and unpretentious sword technique is the most suitable.

For him, this swordsmanship could be used to deliver a thunderous blow to the enemy at a crucial moment.

After testing the sword manual, Wu He looked at the Book of Credits.

Currently, the No-Return Arrow Technique has been mastered, but the Collapsing Dragon Force is still some distance from being perfected. The Golden Light Mantra is the closest to a breakthrough.

Today, let's break through the Golden Light Mantra!

As the only martial art that currently cultivates Qi, the Golden Light Mantra only requires sitting cross-legged and circulating Qi throughout the body.

This was no longer suitable for the training ground. Wu He sheathed his sword and headed towards his quarters in the camp.

As he passed by a certain spot on the training ground, he vaguely heard some heavy impact sounds.

In the distance, amidst a light mist, a shirtless figure was bending over and driving his fists into a pile, striking the iron pillar in front of him again and again.

Those fleshy fists had dented the iron stake so badly that it was deformed beyond recognition.

Beside him, four or five soldiers were smiling and flattering him.

"Young Master Du has achieved great success in his stone-cutting technique; congratulations!"

"Indeed, of all the martial arts techniques for refining flesh, opening the Stone Force is the most difficult. Young Master Du has managed to master it at such a young age, reaching the late stage of flesh refining. His talent is truly extraordinary!"

"Young Master Du will definitely be included in this selection of Imperial Guard officers!"

……

The Stone-Splitting Strength has reached its peak, and the Flesh-Refining Skill is in its late stage.

Wu He narrowed his eyes slightly.

Like the Crushing Dragon Force, the Stone-Splitting Force is a Xuan-level flesh-refining technique, but its cultivation difficulty is indeed higher than the latter.

Wasn't Du Jianlian still in the mid-stage of meat refining yesterday?

He found it slightly strange.

When I first met Du Jianlian, he was only in the early stage of flesh refining, but in less than a month, he directly reached the late stage of flesh refining. Even Wu He couldn't match this speed.

He still owes a debt to She Tian Ce.

"He's probably on drugs."

Wu He dismissed this confusion, not caring much...

Time flew by, and it was already noon.

Outside the main tent of Waqiao Camp, the three walked side by side on the gravel road.

In the center, the handsome man in the purple official robe is Zhao Guangyi. On his left and right are a man and a woman dressed in gray and white Taoist robes, who are disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion, Zhang Lin and Zhang Huaiyu.

"Currently, most prefectures and counties within the territory of Xiong Ba have been investigated, the intelligence of Bai Xiaomen is complete, and the whereabouts of the Liao barbarians have been accurately tracked."

"The final encirclement and suppression against them will begin soon. Esteemed Taoist priests, when will the righteous warriors from the Celestial Master's Mansion arrive?"

Zhao Guangyi asked with a smile, while the middle-aged man on his left, Zhang Lin, replied, "My master sent a message yesterday that forty of my disciples from Longhu Mountain have arrived at the border of Xiongzhou and will be there this evening."

"good!"

Zhao Guangyi laughed upon hearing this, his hands behind his back and a smile spreading across his face: "There's no time to lose. Tomorrow we'll close the net and wipe out those barbarians completely."

"Afterwards, I will hold a grand celebration banquet for everyone from the Celestial Master's Mansion!"

They parted ways at a certain point.

At the tender age of twenty, the pretty Zhang Huaiyu frowned slightly and said, "Senior brother, Lord Zhao seems a little impatient."

The Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain only arrived this evening, and the battle is tomorrow. This is extremely urgent.

Taoist priests are not like flesh-and-blood martial artists. They have traveled a long way and are exhausted. They should at least rest for a few days.

Zhang Lin raised his hand, signaling her to lower her voice, and then said, "It's alright. Since Lord Zhao is so eager to make a name for himself, let the brothers work harder."

"I felt he had other motives."

"What's the purpose?"

"It's hard to say, but this Lord Zhao has a hawk-like and wolf-like look on his face, which makes people feel uneasy."

Zhang Huaiyu pursed his lips, his hand hidden in his sleeve clenching slightly, but Zhang Lin quickly grabbed it firmly.

Looking up, I saw that his face was serious and solemn.

"Don't calculate!"

"oh."

She then obediently let go, saying with a slightly aggrieved tone, "Senior brother, you're being mean to me."

"It's only right that you're fierce. You've only just learned a little bit of Qimen Dunjia, and you already dare to predict his fate?" Zhang Lin pursed his lips.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Huaiyu suddenly seemed to realize something, and said with a sly smile, "Senior brother, how do you know he can't be tricked? Did you secretly test it?"

"no."

"real?"

"Oh."

Zhang Lin gave a cold snort and quickened his pace back.

Beneath that calm exterior lay a chilling inner resolve.

He did indeed have it calculated, but the result almost cost him his life, and it made him deeply aware of what the divination result meant.

I dare not say more.

"Senior brother, wait for me..."

Zhang Huaiyu quickened her pace to catch up, and a moment later the tall figure in front of her suddenly stopped, and she accidentally bumped into him.

"Ouch, senior brother, you..."

"Don't speak."

She then noticed that her senior brother was staring blankly at a thatched hut next to him.

Zhang Huaiyu looked at it with a strange expression. The mud wall mixed with straw seemed ordinary, but the next second, she was also stunned and couldn't take her eyes off it.

In their view, a golden light was shining brightly on the earthen wall.

The scent was very clear and familiar.

"Golden Light Mantra! Whose innate Qi is so strong?!"

Zhang Huaiyu exclaimed in surprise.

This is the aura of their Celestial Master's Mansion's Golden Light Mantra, and judging by its concentration, it has already reached the entry level.

This is not unusual; many scattered Qi practitioners in the martial arts world can practice the Golden Light Mantra.

But this level of proficiency, this level of innate Qi, is something she has never seen before.

"This camp is full of hidden talents."

Zhang Lin sighed deeply, then pulled over a passing soldier and asked him who was in the house.

"Reporting to the two Daoist masters, the person inside is none other than Wu He, the head constable under Commander Liu."
