Chapter 102 – Martial Arts and Demons

The unpleasant smell of blood filled the air.

Pungent, stinking, and surrounded by traces of dried blood.

The fragmented remnants of the sword refracted bright white spots in the sunlight.

More, either deeply embedded in the trees lining the road or buried in the weeds by the wind and sand.

The Hsu system moved forward along the gravel road.

But the more he walks, the more defiled the path becomes.

As if it had been through some fierce battle.

Xu System’s brow furrowed as he slowed his travel speed, “What happened here?”

Thinking back to what he had seen earlier, the hurried figures that hurriedly drove their horses, Xu System guessed that perhaps some kind of battle had taken place in front of them.

“Is it person-to-person, or is it ……”

[You’re on your way to find the town, and you find traces of a fierce battle.]

[You are wary and slow down, while picking up a barely functional stump of a knife from the side of the road, just in case]

[You walk slowly]

[You keep walking]

[Insisting on launching in …… blood rushing to the sky launching in ……]

[Your persistence brings you a slight increase in endurance, your blood and qi are filled so that you are protected from the weakness of hunger, and you travel a little faster]

[After 45 minutes of cautious walking, you managed to reach a town]

You asked around and found out that this is Qingniu Town, which is located in the outermost part of Daqian, bordering on the 100,000 mountains where demons live.

[The traces of blood and flesh you see, and the destruction of the fierce battle, are all caused by demons and martial artists]

[This is an extremely horrific wave of demons, Qingniu Town was destroyed by demons for the most part, and many mortals were brutally abused and killed, and this is the truth of the strong bloody odor you smell]

Rip-!

The battle between the martial artists and the demons continued.

There were well-built, topless, lean and sturdy men who stepped on the ground and leaped high into the air, chopping out harsh and whistling heavy cuts.

The light of the blade lengthened to meet the great sun.

Strongly chopping off the neck of the Horned Manticore, causing its head to fall off in soaring blood.

“Good swordplay!”

“Worthy of being Sect Leader Ji, this Tiger Slaughtering Blade Technique is truly a masterpiece!”

“Hahaha, you all are too kind!”

Some onlooker martial artists clapped their hands.

Many of the people also cast eager glances.

The man surnamed “Ji” was obviously very pleased with this, laughed loudly, and chased after the other direction with a knife.

This was the qi and blood martial way, and the character of the practitioners was mostly bold, and when they encountered a battle, their blood would boil, and they couldn’t help but want to tear apart all of the enemies in front of them in the most violent way possible.

Compare this with the cultivators who practiced the hundred arts of cultivation.

Compare that to a wizard who uses knowledge to control the world.

The martial artist appears to be too extreme, taking the skill points of this transcendental system and adding them to the physical body.

“Artifacts are bitterly weak, and flesh and blood soar?”

“Sounds like it could be interesting.”

Xu System let out a light breath and held back his hunger as he walked into Green Ox Town.

Before the simulation, he had prepared himself early on, regarding various types of cultivation methods, including the martial arts side.

Whether it’s a technique for cultivation or a martial art for life and death combat.

Everything in mind.

However, before actually practicing, System Xu needed to find a place to land while more carefully and deeply, understanding the background of the world of the third simulation.

……

[You’re taking an important first step]

[The town of Qingniu, ravaged by demons, is in need of young laborers, and you make use of your healthy body with a lot of energy and blood to exchange your labor for the first money.]

[You buy food, gorge yourself, and succeed in eliminating your body’s hunger].

[In the time to come, you follow the original plan of silently accumulating money while learning about the situation of the Daqian Dynasty from the people on the sidelines]

[At the same time, you began to insist on learning the Daqian script, turning to books and consulting ancient texts on your own]

[Stick around for the launch of ……]

[Heaven rewards hard work, your persistence paid off, you studied hard for a month, and briefly mastered the mainstream script of the Daqian Dynasty and several ancient scripts]

[Now you have the most basic knowledge of the world.]

[This is a boundless and vast world that knows no limits, where the human race hammers itself with qi, blood, and martial arts, and after countless generations of passing on the torch, has carved out an exclusive safe place for the human race]

[Dachan, born of necessity]

[The Daqian Dynasty is an extremely powerful dynasty, ruling over the frontiers of the human race and maintaining the stability of the human race. Under the rule of Daqian, the life of the human race is full of order, and there is no return to the dark and difficult times of the ancient times]

[But outside of Daqian is the 100,000 mountains where countless demons and monsters are entrenched]

[The mountain abyss is soaring and the peaks are soaring]

[Spirits, monsters and demons abound]

[The 100,000 Great Mountains is a forbidden land in the absolute sense, even a martial arts powerhouse of the Human Immortal realm wouldn’t dare to step into it at will simply because of the endless demons inside, which are simply impossible to remove]

[Places bordering the Hundred Thousand Mountains, such as remote areas like Qingniu Town, are more likely to be infested by demons from time to time]

[You’ve come to your senses and understood the circumstances of the Green Cow tragedy.]

To mortals without power.

Living in a remote place like Green Ox Town was undoubtedly dangerous.

Elderly people, children and so on, all yearn for the deeper counties of Daqian, but the court of Daqian has imposed restrictions on this, prohibiting the people from moving at will.

Therefore, it had to stay where it was.

But the Hsu system is different.

“I have perseverance and maneuvering, two phrases that complement each other, and if used properly, this simulation will never be less rewarding.”

“And in the lineage of qi and blood martial arts, the most important thing is actual combat in life and death.”

“Living here is more suitable for me to practice martial arts.”

Between the flow of his mind, System Xu quickly made the arrangements, but he didn’t start cultivating right away.

The so-called qi and blood martial arts.

The essence is the exploitation of the human body for mining.

The Xu system had just crossed over, its body was weak and ordinary, and it also lacked medicines to fill up its qi and blood, so it would first settle down for a period of time.

……

[You’ve chosen to settle in Greenbrier Township]

[Your daily labor, exchanging your labor for money, your perseverance, your sweat, is quite impressive.]

[Due to your long labors, your fitness has risen]

[Day after day, month after month]

[You persist in swinging your fists and kicks for a long time, and even though you don’t have the added power of qi and blood, your comprehension of the basic punches and kicks becomes deeper, and your body begins to memorize the techniques of powering up your punches]

[A year and a half has passed, you have accumulated a small fortune, and you judge that it is time to cultivate the qi and blood martial way]

[You’ve spent all your money on medicines to strengthen your qi and blood.]

[In a specific order and technique, make a serving of qi and blood powder, as well as a corresponding medicinal bath that can help you stimulate your body’s qi and blood.]

[You’re double-barreled and using both]

[Your qi and blood potential is rapidly stimulated, instantly breaking through the first confinement of the mortal body, qi and blood surging through your entire body, sinews and bones chiming together, stepping into the first realm of the martial arts path]

A year and a half is as quick as a flash.

The Xu system sat cross-legged inside the dilapidated wooden house.

Red all over.

Subcutaneous surges.

Running the real martial arts true power that he had redeemed from the real world.

The escaping qi and blood are slowly collected back into the body and, at a specific frequency, circulated and rotated through the body, forming a long river of rushing qi and blood.

Passing through the chakra realm, it is accomplished.
