After seeing Mu Wanqiu off, Jiang He began to copy cultivation manuals.
After copying the six tiers of the Shaolin monk's qinggong, Jiang He made up the seventh and eighth tiers out of mischief.
"I don't know if the cultivation method I made up can be planted. If it really can be planted, then it will be interesting."
Hence, Jiang He instructed Dumbo to dig a hole and plant the Breezy Smoke Flight inside.
Then, he went to the area where the ashes of the qi pellet tree were scattered.
There was not much ash, and it was spread over around five square meters of land. Jiang He sprinkled an entire pack of carrot seeds over it, and in just two hours, there were already dense sprouts over the ground.
He would probably harvest them by nightfall.
"I wonder what special effect the carrots grown from the ashes would have …"
Forcing himself to eat a cucumber, he found that a sapling had grown out when he looked at the spot where he planted the Light Smoke Flight.
This sapling was very strange. It was a wooden stump, thick and short. On it, there was a ball of catkin the size of a marshmallow. The catkin gradually grew until it was more than a meter in diameter before it stood up.
"The Light Smoke Flight is done!"
Delighted, Jiang He went up and parted the catkins to find an aged blue-covered thread-bound tome lying quietly among the catkins.
[Ding!]
[+ 500 Farm Points.]
There were four words stamped in gold on the cover of the tome. The brush strokes were like dragons and snakes, and there was an extraordinary aura about it.
Even so, Jiang He almost threw the secret tome in his hand after a glance.
"Summer! Blind! Eight … Practices? "
Stumbling a few steps back, Jiang He clutched his chest and muttered with a scowl, "I just added two tiers for mischief. How did it become Blind Princess's Eight Practices?"
How was he supposed to tell others if he really learned it?
"Wow, your qinggong is so cool. Big bro, can I ask what's the name of your technique?"
"Blind Princess's Eight Practices."
"…"
Jiang He could not help shuddering at the image in his head.
"Forget it."
"I'll learn it first. At most, I'll just keep it a secret from others."
"Ding!"
[Detected that the Host has planted a middle-grade martial art: Blind Princess's Eight Practices. Consume 1000 Farm Points to learn it?]
"1,000 points? So expensive?"
Jiang He complained, "Study."
The crisp sound of the System notification rang in his head once more —
[-1000 Farm Points.]
[Congratulations host, you've raised the first practice of Blind Princess's Eight Practices to the large success stage.]
Jiang He shuddered.
Everything seemed to have become clear to him, and a surge of information flowed into his mind.
"This is …"
"The first practice of Blind Princess's Eight Practices? Once I've mastered it, I'll be able to walk on water … Isn't this the same as walking on water? " Jiang He was amused, but it was fortunate that he did not need a wooden plank. Otherwise, he would have to prepare a wooden plank before he fought.
His figure moved.
Shua!
In almost an instant, he was already ten meters away.
In the next instant, Jiang He's figure moved again, twisting and turning in the yard, leaving afterimages.
His body was like a ghost, agile to the extreme. As soon as he displayed his qinggong, he really had some flavor of the Green Wing Bat King Wei Yixiao.
"Not bad, not bad."
"With this movement technique, my combat ability will go up a notch. But if I want to kill a Rank-7 Direbeast, I'm still far from it. First, I need a weapon!"
With that in mind, Jiang He took out a qi pellet and ate it.
He needed to be strong to forge iron, and improving his cultivation must not be delayed.
Though Jiang He found the soulless potion method very dry and tasteless, he would feel hungry if he did not eat it.
"When it comes to weapons, Cordo's scimitar is still with me, but it's not my cup of tea …"
"Let's go to the Special Bureau and see if I could get my hands on a combat blade. When the time comes, a combat blade would definitely be more lethal than bare fists against Ferals." After giving a few instructions to Dumbo and the Three-tails Demon Cat, Jiang He gave Duan Tianhe a call and asked for his address before leaving.
… …
Lingzhou City.
Old Building Materials City.
Three years ago, after the relocation of Linzhou City's Building Materials City, the country had planned for the reconstruction of the area. Now, there were over a dozen skyscrapers and surveillance systems set up around the area, with martial artists standing guard outside.
Just yesterday, a sign that read 'Lingzhou City Martial Arts Department' was hung over the gates of the rebuilt Old Building Materials City.
Jiang He could not help frowning when he got off the taxi and studied the sign.
"Since the sign is up, it looks like the country would announce it in two days …" One could imagine how the entire country would be shaken once the revival of Qi was announced.
No!
It would not just be the Hua Nation. The entire world would be shaken.
That was inevitable.
He walked to the gates, where a tall, slender woman immediately came to greet him.
Jiang He looked around, and promptly felt bored.
Did she grow that big? Did she get plastic surgery?
What a shame, or he could sell a corn stalk.
The woman was a little older, probably in her thirties. Still, women of that age were the definition of mature and flirtatious. Walking up to him, she extended her hand and smiled. "Hello, Mister Jiang. I'm Bai Feifei, and Captain Duan has sent me to pick you up."
"Oh?"
"Bai Feifei?"
Jiang He shook Bai Feifei's hand and smiled. "I've heard about you from Wang Siyu. You're her master, right?"
Bai Feifei quickly waved him off. "I'm just her guide into the Special Ops Bureau. I wouldn't dare to call you master."
She was a martial artist, and the title 'master' was not something to be casually addressed in the martial arts world.
As they walked towards a building, Jiang He asked about the Martial Arts Department (MAD), to which Bai Feifei said, "The higher-ups have made a move. The Special Ops Bureau would be renamed the MAD from now on, and aside from repelling Ferals and protecting the people, the MAD's mission is to search for martial arts elites and superhumans. After all, not every martial artist or superhuman would show off their powers after awakening, and those sly bastards hiding among the people are even more dangerous than Ferals …"
Jiang He had a weird look on his face as Bai Feifei rambled on.
Was he imagining things?
He must be imagining things!
But why did he have a feeling that the 'sly bastard' she mentioned was referring to him?
"By the way, Mister Jiang."
Suddenly, Bai Feifei lowered her voice and said, "Lingzhou City's Martial Arts Department (MAD) is sending a martial artist here. He's a disciple of the Eight Trigrams School and is close to Su Ze … he's a little short-tempered and displeased that you beat Su Ze up, so Captain Duan told me to show you around …"
"Eh?"
Jiang He's gaze twitched. "A disciple of the Eight Trigrams School? Is he powerful? "
"Rank-six pinnacle. He's a martial arts elite on the same level as Captain Duan."
Bai Feifei was not aware that Duan Tianhe was already rank-seven.
Jiang He's eyes lit up at once, but he soon shook his head and muttered, "No, I'm still a few qi pellets away from rank-four pinnacle, and at least fifty qi pellets away from reaching rank-five. Wouldn't I lose face if I can't beat a rank-six pinnacle?"
He smiled, saying, "That's fine. I'd like to have a good look around since the MAD is so huge."
Even as he spoke, he took out a qi pellet and ate it.
Yup.
Eat more.
He would probably be rank-five by the time he was done with the MAD.
When that happens, he could find a disciple of the Eight Trigrams School to test his skills and see if he could kill a rank-six Feral.
