All the signs pointed to the fact that the whole world seemed to have started a martial arts trend. Technology was already very advanced, but was it beginning to shift to the development of the human body?
Ye Lingchen was puzzled. What did the whole world practicing martial arts signify? Although martial artists were powerful and could easily break through by practicing martial arts, it was still extremely difficult to become a top martial artist. Moreover, there were guns and cannons. Ordinary martial artists could not even dodge bullets, so what was the use?
Why did martial arts begin to reenact?
However, Ye Lingchen also realized something at the same time. Although the system could upgrade skills … it did not mean that it was the best!
For example, Ye Lingchen's Eight Extremities Brute Training had been upgraded to the advanced level. However, did it mean that Eight Extremities Brute Training was the best among all the martial arts? Obviously not!
He seemed to have entered a misconception previously.
Ye Lingchen sorted out his thoughts.
Be it Eight Extremities Fist, Arhat Fist, or Obstacle Course, those skills were just basic skills. If Ye Lingchen did not upgrade them, their level would obviously not be comparable to the Mo family's Heart Destruction Palm or Huo Shan's Soaring Wind Kick.
If they were to be graded, Eight Extremities Fist was a basic skill while Heart Destruction Palm was a third-rate skill. It was obvious which was stronger and which was weaker.
If Ye Lingchen learned Heart Destruction Palm and evolved it through the system, the derived skill would definitely surpass Eight Extremities Brute Training!
Another example was if Ye Lingchen learned Soaring Wind Kick and evolved it through the system. His Qinggong would definitely surpass Parkour.
That discovery made Ye Lingchen excited and bitter at the same time.
He was excited because he could learn some powerful martial arts in the future. Who knows, it might become an amazing skill after evolution. He felt bitter because he had wasted so much popularity points previously, only to upgrade three basic martial arts. He felt that it was a waste.
Of course, he was just complaining. Without those basic skills, Ye Lingchen could not become a martial artist, let alone find powerful martial arts manuals.
That also explained why Huo Shan could become a half-step Innate Stage. Other than his talent, it was also related to the martial arts he cultivated. If he were to cultivate a trashy fist technique, it would be strange if he could cultivate Inner Force. The starting point was too far apart.
It seemed like he had to collect more skills in the future.
Ye Lingchen could not help but place his sights on the Mo family once again. Since the Mo family wanted to kill him, he had no qualms about targeting them.
At this moment, the wind seemed to have stopped, and the entire park became strangely quiet. Even the sounds of insects and birds seemed to have disappeared in an instant, and a strange pressure enveloped the park.
He's here, he's here!
Any cultivator with some foundation felt their hearts skip a beat. Although there were no changes in their surroundings, they felt an inexplicable sense of fear and trepidation.
The expressions of Su Tianhong and the other leaders of the four major families changed as a hint of fear flashed through their eyes.
Xiantian martial artists could activate Xiantian spiritual energy. Just their aura alone was enough to affect the surrounding atmosphere.
In the next moment, a figure appeared in the distance. That figure walked in the darkness, and only the silhouette of a person could be seen. The distance should be very far, but as he walked, the distance seemed to be very close. Because in just a few breaths of time, the figure had already gotten very close.
"It's the Patriarch! The Patriarch is here! "
The people of the Mo family shouted excitedly. They looked at the figure with a sense of pilgrimage. Their eyes were filled with fanaticism, and they knelt on the ground.
"The Patriarch of the Mo family … Xiantian martial artist, Mo Tianqi!"
In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on the man in black.
At that moment, everyone could finally see clearly that the man in black had sunken eyes and sharp edges. His black hair was dotted with white hairs, and he looked to be in his 40s or 50s, like a middle-aged man.
Those who had never seen Mo Tianqi before were fine, but the leaders of the four major families were shocked and in disbelief.
"White, white … white hair turned black?!"
Su Tianhong said with a trembling voice. His eyes were about to pop out of his head, and he seemed to have lost his soul.
Ye Lingchen's gaze was focused as well. Mo Tianqi had made a name for himself at a young age and had been the Mo family's patriarch for 20 years. He was only slightly older than Huo Shan, and was at least in his 70s or 80s. Yet, at that moment, he was in high spirits with a pitiful amount of white hair!
"Rumor has it that the Xiantian Stage can break through the barriers of the body and revive the fading functions. When one's cultivation reaches a high level, one can still have white hair and a youthful complexion even in their later years. I can't believe it's true!" The Chen family's patriarch exclaimed. At the same time, he glanced at Ye Lingchen with worry in his eyes.
'This is a true Xiantian Stage martial artist!'
Everyone felt like they were suffocating. The overwhelming aura of a big shot made it hard for them to breathe.
"I've just entered the Xiantian Stage, and I'm preparing to use a human as a sacrifice for my supernatural powers!"
Mo Tianqi's calm words came out of his mouth, ringing in everyone's ears like a bell.
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Tianqi stopped less than ten meters in front of Ye Lingchen. He did not even look at the dead Huo Shan, and only stared calmly at Ye Lingchen with blatant disdain.
"You're Miracle Doctor Y? I see that you're quite capable. As long as you take the 10,000 Heart Devouring Ants Pill and become my Mo family's lackey, you'll be spared from death! "
Overbearing, disdainful, and with an aura of control.
The name 10,000 Heart Devouring Ants Pill caused the expressions of many in the crowd to change slightly, revealing fear. Once one consumed the 10,000 Heart Devouring Ants Pill, one must obtain the antidote regularly. Otherwise, one would suffer the pain of 10,000 Heart Devouring Ants.
"You still dare to come before me?"
"What did you say?" The smile on Mo Tianqi's face froze.
"If you come over, kneel down and kowtow to admit your mistake. I might consider sparing your Mo family's life," Ye Lingchen said calmly as he sat on a park bench, fiddling with a branch in his hand.
"You're asking for it!" Before Mo Tianqi could speak, the other martial artists from the Mo family had already rebuked him.
"Miracle Doctor Y!"
Mo Tianqi's expression darkened, and he spoke coldly.
"I don't want to kill you. You can stand here and talk. If I wanted to kill you, you'd have died a hundred times over! Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that?! "
"Your Mo family's way of doing things are each more overbearing than the last. If that's the case, there's no need for your family to exist anymore." Ye Lingchen shook his head and sighed softly, as though he had no other choice.
"Pfft!"
Mo Tianqi laughed angrily as though he was looking at an idiot. "You're just a commoner. How would you know how terrifying an Innate Stage martial artist is? Today, I'll use you to establish my authority!"
"Master Mo, if you want to kill Miracle Doctor Y, you'll have to go through the four major families first!" Su Tianhong could not help but say. The enemy of an enemy was a friend. They were unwilling to watch Ye Lingchen die just like that.
"Who do you four major families think you are? Do you think you're qualified to speak?" Mo Tianqi casually sent out a blast of energy at Su Tianhong.
Su Tianhong didn't seem to circulate his inner force. It was like a normal person waving his sleeve, but it was like a thunderbolt. The small amount of inner force far surpassed the power and speed of a bullet. Su Tianhong screamed in shock and didn't even dare to resist. He rolled on the ground pathetically and barely dodged the punch …
