Longevity Begins with the Seven Injuries Fist-Chapter 300 - 185: Eight Zhang Gang Qi! Hunting Dragon Alliance Meeting! (Part 2)

Chapter 300: Chapter 185: Eight Zhang Gang Qi! Hunting Dragon Alliance Meeting! (Part 2)

Thus, he decided not to visit several food stalls for breakfast as he did in Jiannan Prefecture.

Instead, he directly asked the staff to prepare a large amount of breakfast.

His breakfast included not only beef, chicken, and other meats, but also porridge, noodles, buns, and various pastries, making it extremely abundant.

After ordering breakfast, Su Que went back into the room, closed the door, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

He couldn’t help but wonder to himself that since he started cultivating, his appetite had become enormous.

He didn’t know if it was because his cultivation speed was so fast that it caused a great consumption of energy.

He didn’t understand those methods of absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi for his use, so he replenished his energy through food.

About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, there was a knock on the door.

Since Su Que ordered quite a bit of food, the inn’s kitchen needed quite some time to prepare.

Upon hearing the knock, Su Que covered his face, opened the door, and let the three staff members bring all the breakfast dishes inside and place them on the table.

The plates and bowls nearly covered the entire table.

The dishes and staple foods steamed, emitting a delectable fragrance that whetted one’s appetite.

After the three staff members left, Su Que closed the door and removed the black cloth from his face.

He picked up chopsticks with one hand, grabbing a piece of beef drenched in sauce.

With the other hand, he picked up a soup dumpling and began devouring the meal.

Su Que ate extremely quickly; in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he had cleared the table of food.

Afterward, he covered his face again and called for the staff to take away all the empty dishes.

Once the staff had removed all the dishes and cleaned the table, Su Que closed the door and sat cross-legged on the bed to continue cultivating.

Throughout the morning, he concentrated on gathering Gang Qi.

The Gang Qi condensing in his Ren Meridian became more substantial, and its attack range extended further and further.

Martial Arts Realm: Gang Condensing Realm·Seven and Nine Feet

Su Que glanced at his attributes and saw that the range of his Gang Qi attack had improved further.

After a morning of cultivation, his stomach growled with hunger once more.

As if he hadn’t eaten breakfast at all.

So, Su Que went downstairs, ordered food, and had the staff bring it up again.

Seeing Su Que eat so much in the morning and again at noon, the inn’s staff and chefs couldn’t help but be astounded.

After another hearty meal, Su Que took a nap and then changed into his training clothes, put on the Rakshasa Mask, donned his cloak, and left the inn.

He planned to enhance his Martial Arts Realm in the morning, while in the afternoon and evening, he intended to practice martial arts to improve his Martial Arts Mastery.

After leaving the inn, he made his way toward the outskirts of the small town.

He found a secluded forest area, removed his cloak, set it aside, and began to practice the Demon Saber.

He had not sought a Treasure Saber to perform his saber techniques, so his mastery of the Demon Blade Techniques with his right hand had become increasingly skilled.

Forming a saber with his right hand’s fingers, he willed it, and an imposing aura erupted from his body.

Immediately, the forest resounded with the chirping of birds, and the small birds on the trees fluttered away, calling as they took flight.

There was also a rustling sound from the ground.

It was the forest’s crawling creatures, intimidated by this aura, quickly fleeing the area.

Even wild animals in the distant forest like tigers, black bears, wolves, and deer, felt the aura, shuddered, and with glowing eyes, looked in Su Que’s direction.

Then, they turned and ran in the opposite direction of Su Que.

As the Demonic Qi rose, the air around Su Que began to distort.

Su Que could feel the demonic nature inside him erupting and growing stronger.

This demonic nature, in turn, drove the True Qi and Qi Blood within him to circulate more rapidly.

His muscles became more active as the demonic nature spread.

With a thought, Su Que filled the area within ten steps of him with Sword Gangs the size of single sabers.

His progress in the Gang Condensing Realm also enhanced the power and variety of his Martial Arts Techniques.

Previously, he was proficient in releasing a single Sword Gang with a strike.

Now, he could release multiple Sword Gangs around him.

The shape of the Sword Gangs could change at his will, adapting to the opponent’s techniques and battlefield environment.

Su Que’s left hand also formed a blade, moving slowly in the air alongside his right hand.

The Sword Gangs around him seemed to be carried along, forming a winding river.

Then, using his Gang Qi, he formed his fingers into blades and thrust both hands forward into the forest!

The river of Sword Gangs accelerated abruptly!

The trees standing in a straight line ahead of him were uprooted by the river of Sword Gangs!

One by one, flurries of wood chips burst from the tree trunks, revealing bright holes.

Subsequently, the trees along this straight line fell one after another, crashing to the ground and kicking up dust.

The area of the forest in front of Su Que was instantly shrouded in dust, becoming hazy and indistinct.

Then, Su Que stepped deftly, his body leaping and dodging in the open space of the forest.

The Demon Blade Techniques were performed by him in seamless succession.

In the woods, demonic energy surged, and sword qi crisscrossed.

Demon Saber (5th Realm Refining Skill 80%)

The Demon Saber is undoubtedly one of the top martial arts of the current era, and its cultivation process is slower than other martial arts.

However, Su Que did not feel impatient in his heart.

He was only twenty-one years old and had more than six hundred years of life ahead of him, so there was plenty of time in the future.

As long as he followed the steps of cultivation, his strength would surely be formidable in the future, and he could roam freely in this world.

Besides cultivating the Demon Saber, Su Que also practiced the Seven Injuries Fist, Celestial Deformed Foot, and Exotic Golden Bell Shield.

Though the Demon Saber was powerful, it was not omnipotent.

If his opponent wore armor or practiced hard skills, the Seven Injuries Fist would be more useful than the Demon Saber.

The Celestial Deformed Foot could enhance his lightweight skill and diversify his combat methods.

The Exotic Golden Bell Shield could add an extra layer of defense to his already resilient skin.

If he encountered a master stronger than himself, he could activate the Exotic Golden Bell Shield and adopt a life-for-life strategy to fight his opponent.

Time passed quickly, and the following eight days were spent in intense cultivation, making each day fulfilling.

He checked his attributes.

Martial Arts Realm: Gang Condensation Realm·Eight and Two Feet

Demon Saber (5th Realm Refining Skill 93%)

He was able to condense Sword Gang measuring eight and two feet, and the Demon Saber showed progress.

On the night of the tenth day, Su Que carried the Twelve Dragon-slaying Shuttles and the token, left the inn, and dashed towards the woods outside the town.

At this moment, it was the eve before the appointed time for the rendezvous with the Hunting Dragon Alliance as written on the note.

The meeting place was a patch of woods fifty miles outside the town.

Now, Su Que wore his usual martial attire for action.

He wore a Rakshasa Mask, and his long hair flowed with the wind as he dashed.

He did not wear a cloak or a conical hat, as they would hinder his movements.

After all, he was about to act within the Wu Family, one of the Nine Great Noble Families of the Central Plains.

Even though the Wu Family had declined compared to hundreds of years ago and ranked lower among the Nine Great Noble Families of the Central Plains,

it still had several Martial Artists above the Gang Condensation Realm, and the patriarch was one of the top experts in Liang Kingdom.

Su Que, being merely in the Gang Condensation Realm, would not act recklessly.

Before long, Su Que saw the forest.

As he neared the woods, he immediately slowed his lightweight skill.

After all, he intended to fish in troubled waters and seize the Qilin Essence amidst chaos, so naturally, he couldn’t expose his full strength.

At this point, after slowing down his lightweight skill, he even hid the traces of the Celestial Deformed Foot and Sunflower Manual.

Su Que darted into the woods.

It was winter, and the sky was starless.

Entering the forest, it seemed even darker.

However, with his current cultivation, his eye power was excellent; in the darkness, he could see several figures approaching from various directions and heading toward the same direction in the forest as he was.

It seemed these martial artists, like him, belonged to the Hunting Dragon Alliance.

Soon, Su Que reached the depths of the forest and stopped.

In the pitch darkness, he saw more than thirty people in the open woodland.

Some covered their faces, others wrapped their heads, and some, like him, wore masks.

However, there were also some people, likely loners, unafraid as they openly showed their faces.

After Su Que arrived, he found a spot with fewer people and leaned back against a tree trunk.

At this moment, his footsteps had the strength of a Martial Artist in the Early Stage of the Meridian Opening Realm.

Su Que leaned his back fully against the tree, quietly gathering Gang Qi in his Ren Meridian.

The sound of howling winds arose as martial artists arrived one after another.

Gradually, more and more martial artists gathered in the woodland.
