Chapter 24: Crushing Opponents of the Same Rank

"Ding! Elementary Cultivation Technique 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique' detected. Do you wish to add it?"

Just after finishing reading, the System notification arrived.

"Holy crap, I just read it once without even studying it carefully, and I can already add it?"

Su Lang's eyes lit up with surprise and delight.

In this way, no matter how profound future Cultivation Techniques might be, he only needed to look at them once to start practicing automatically, without needing to spend any effort at all!

After his excitement subsided, Su Lang pondered: "System, how much longer until the 'Returning Origin Body Tempering Art' reaches the Minor Achievement Realm?"

"host, it will take another 24 hours to reach the Minor Achievement level."

"It only took a minute or two for Entry-Level, but reaching Minor Achievement actually requires 24 hours. This is too difficult!"

Su Lang sighed with emotion, then immediately said, "System, switch the 'Returning Origin Body Tempering Art' to the 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique' for me."

If he continued to automatically practice the 'Returning Origin Body Tempering Art', it would take a day to reach the Minor Achievement level.

However, switching to the 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique' would certainly allow it to reach the Minor Achievement level within a short time.

Therefore, switching to the 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique' now would clearly yield greater benefits.

"Ding! Cultivation Technique changed to 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique'!"

As the System notification arrived, Su Lang moved his consciousness and arrived in the mysterious black space.

He saw that the white figure, which had originally been performing various Body Tempering movements, now held an illusory long saber in its hand.

It held the long saber and continuously practiced the 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique'.

Its saber-practicing movements were extremely fluid and natural, simply pleasing to the eye like art.

Su Lang just sat on the chair and waited quietly.

Two minutes later.

"Ding! 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique' has reached Entry-Level!"

Su Lang felt his mind shake as a massive amount of understanding regarding the 'Ghost Moon Saber Technique' was imprinted into his Soul, causing his mastery of this Cultivation Technique to directly enter the Entry-Level stage.

"As expected of the Level 2 One-Click Martial Arts Practice Function!"

Su Lang smiled slightly, then flipped his wrist. A lightning-fast, snow-bright saber gleam instantly burst forth, then retracted into the sheath just as quickly.

If not for the terrifying saber mark that had appeared on the thick wall to the side, it would have been as if nothing had ever happened.

"This attack power is already capable of crushing Peak Body Tempering!"

Looking at the terrifying saber mark that had almost pierced through the wall, Su Lang curled his lips and summoned the attribute panel.

"As expected, my attack Realm has already reached the Quasi-Martial Artist level!"

"Once I break through to Quasi-Martial Artist, I will be able to crush opponents of the same Rank in every aspect!"

"This feeling is truly wonderful, so satisfying!"

Su Lang felt his own power, and the smile on his lips gradually widened.

Although he was an assassin, what he liked most was beating enemies head-on until they cried for their parents and begged for mercy on their knees!

"Now, I just have to wait for One-Click Cultivation to improve my Realm."

Su Lang poured himself a cup of tea and drank it leisurely.

At the same time, west of the stronghold, outside the Gourd Valley, fifteen members of the Broken Axe Hunting Group were fully prepared and ready to go.

Among the fifteen people, there were two Quasi-Martial Artist experts, while the rest were all Peak Body Tempering and Advanced Body Tempering.

"You all remember the tactics clearly, right? Let's go!"

The leader, the stronghold guard, wore a red martial outfit and carried a tiger-mouth long saber at his waist. With a wave of his hand, he walked into the Gourd Valley.

The others followed closely behind, ready for battle.

Very soon, an angry wolf howl came from within the Gourd Valley; clearly, the members of the Broken Axe Hunting Group had been discovered.

After the first wolf howl, wolf howls came one after another from within the valley, and long howls even echoed from around the Gourd Valley.

"Quick! Kill your way in!"

A Quasi-Martial Artist shouted loudly and charged forward fiercely. The others also drew their weapons with a clamor and swarmed in.

The Wind Wolves in the valley saw the members of the Broken Axe Hunting Group and all charged up with blood-red eyes.

In an instant, the two sides engaged in close-quarters combat, and the sounds of wolf howls, roars, slashing, and shouting continued incessantly.
