28: Changes in martial arts

“Colorful and diverse…”

Putting away the manual, Han Li’s gaze fell upon the second book.

Opening the manual, Han Li took a look.

The second book was the complete Qing Yuan Skill, a full Cultivation Technique that could be Cultivated to the Three Gods Realm.

After a quick read, Han Li memorized it and looked at the third book.

“Ben Lei Fist.”

The third book was a martial art.

Ben Lei Fist!

It was a swift and fierce boxing martial art.

Han Li carefully read it through once, then committed it to his mind.

Compared to Fierce Tiger Fist, this Ben Lei Fist was stronger.

After all, one was just a basic martial art, while the other was bestowed by an Innate expert.

The difference was like heaven and earth.

After finishing Ben Lei Fist, Han Li then turned his attention to the spear martial arts book.

According to Feng Taixu, this spear technique was very powerful. To receive praise from an Peak of the Acquired Realm expert, it naturally couldn't be simple.

“Life-奪ing Thirteen Spears!”

Opening the first page, several large characters immediately caught his eye.

The name of the spear technique was Life-奪ing Spear Technique, consisting of thirteen forms.

Han Li continued to read.

First spear, sweeping away a thousand armies…

A moment later, Han Li finished reading all thirteen spears of the Life-奪ing Spear Technique.

He had also committed them to memory.

With this spear technique, if he Cultivated according to its instructions, its power would definitely be beyond imagination.

The thirteen spears were all exquisitely subtle and infinitely powerful.

If he achieved Major Achievement, he would certainly gain great accomplishments!

Han Li had a thought and opened his panel.

name: Han Li.

Realm: Body Tempering Seventh Layer!

martial arts: Fierce Tiger Fist (Perfection)! Divine Travel Eight Desolations (Major Achievement 2%) Qing Yuan Skill Earth Rank High Grade (5%) Life-奪ing Spear Technique Profound Rank High Grade (Beginner 0%) Ben Lei Fist Profound Rank Low Grade (Beginner 0%)

skill: Archery (Perfection)!

Heaven and Earth Demon Seed: (Level 1 82%)

Divine Ability: Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound (First Realm 92%)

“Hmm?”

Looking at the panel, Han Li was stunned.

Qing Yuan Skill had actually changed, with “Earth Rank High Grade” added after it.

And Life-奪ing Thirteen Spears had become Profound Rank High Grade, while Ben Lei Fist was also Profound Rank, but only Low Grade.

The classification of martial arts was also introduced in the Qingyuan Sect manual.

Mortal-Grade, Profound-Grade, Earth-Grade, Heaven-Grade.

These were the four Realms of martial arts, with Heaven-Grade being the highest and Mortal-Grade the lowest. Each martial art level was divided into High, Medium, and Low Grade.

And above Heaven-Grade, there seemed to be even stronger martial arts, but the manual did not explain them.

Han Li observed carefully and found that apart from Qing Yuan Skill changing, Divine Travel Eight Desolations and Fierce Tiger Fist remained unchanged.

“Is it because I read the complete version of the martial art that it changed?”

Han Li blinked, this was the only possibility he could think of.

Other than that, there should be no other possibilities.

Fierce Tiger Fist and Divine Travel Eight Desolations had no grade.

“Could it be that only graded martial arts can change?”

Han Li furrowed his brow.

The panel changed again, another unexpected change.

The change in grade appeared.

Qing Yuan Skill was the highest, Earth Rank High Grade.

But thinking about it, it was normal. This was the complete Qing Yuan Skill, which could be Cultivated from the Body Tempering Realm to the Three Gods Realm.

The martial art of a major sect, Earth Rank High Grade, was reasonable.

The Ben Lei Fist taught by Feng Taixu was Profound Rank Low Grade.

As for graded martial arts, he could imagine their power just by flipping through them.

Divine Travel Eight Desolations and Fierce Tiger Fist didn't even have a grade.

The difference was clear at a glance.

He thought he understood it before, but with this change, Han Li felt that this panel might have even more changes.

The unknown was the greatest curiosity.

Han Li came back to his senses and calmed down.

“Life-奪ing Thirteen Spears is so much higher than Ben Lei Fist. It seems that if I achieve Major Achievement in this spear technique, it will certainly not disappoint.”

Looking at the panel again, Han Li’s mind was settled.

He took out the miniature Dragon Pattern Spear.

Spiritual Artifacts could only be used after dripping blood to refine them.

Although his current strength couldn't unleash the true power of a Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact, he believed that with the Profound Rank High Grade Life-奪ing Spear Technique, there would be a very significant change.

“Let’s refine it first.”

Han Li bit his finger, and bright red blood dripped onto the Dragon Pattern Spear.

“Buzz—!”

A faint light flashed, the Dragon Pattern on the Dragon Pattern Spear lit up for a moment, and the dripping blood was quickly absorbed.

Immediately, Han Li had a subtle feeling.

He had established a connection with the Dragon Pattern Spear.

However, this connection was still very shallow.

Refining a Spiritual Artifact, dripping blood to acknowledge it as master, was only the first step of entry. More importantly, it required continuous nurturing with True Qi to deepen the connection.

This was also the refining method Chen Qi had told him; it wasn't just a simple blood-dripping refinement.

Han Li activated the True Qi in his body. As the True Qi moved, it continuously poured into the Dragon Pattern Spear.

The Dragon Pattern on the spear body became increasingly bright.

Han Li did not slacken in the slightest, continuing to infuse True Qi… As the bright moon rose, Han Li spent several hours before he could barely achieve a stable connection with the Dragon Pattern Spear.

“It's not enough. My current True Qi is too little to satisfy the Dragon Pattern Spear. Let's stop the refining here for now.”

Withdrawing his True Qi, Han Li stopped refining, looking at the miniature Dragon Pattern Spear in front of him.

With a thought, a silver light flashed, and the Dragon Pattern Spear in his hand quickly grew larger, transforming into a seven-foot-long silver spear.

This was the normal form of the Dragon Pattern Spear.

The seven-foot-long spear had lifelike Dragon Pattern on its shaft, as if a true Dragon would fly out at any moment.

“Cool!”

Looking at the seven-foot Dragon Pattern Spear in his hand, Han Li nodded in satisfaction.

Saber, spear, sword, halberd!

What he loved most was the spear!

The Dragon Pattern Spear perfectly met his requirements.

The power of the Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact Dragon Pattern Spear was also boundless.

“Let’s go out and try it!”

Holding the Dragon Pattern Spear, Han Li stepped out the door and into the courtyard.

The bright moon hung in the sky, and under the moonlight, the entire Yuhua Peak was very quiet.

Standing in the courtyard, gripping the Dragon Pattern Spear, Han Li thrust out a spear.

“Whoosh—!”

A fierce surge of Qi whistled forth; this spear seemed to pierce through the air.

Han Li wielded the spear, trying it a few times, and felt it was quite good.

Even without activating it with True Qi, its power was extraordinary.

A Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact was not comparable to ordinary divine weapons and sharp blades.

He withdrew the spear, and with a thought, the Dragon Pattern Spear in his hand quickly transformed into its miniature size. Han Li then put it into his hundred treasure sack.

“Let’s eat something first.”

Han Li walked to the kitchen and began to prepare food.

Chen Qi had given him some food, which Han Li had also put into his hundred treasure sack. These foods would be enough for him for ten days to half a month.

After dinner, Han Li immediately returned to his room.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Han Li took out the Iron Plate.

“This thing, it should also be some kind of Spiritual Artifact, right? But why was there no reaction when I dripped blood on it?”

Looking at the Iron Plate in his hand, thoughts flashed through Han Li’s mind.

He really didn't know if this Iron Plate had any other abilities.

So far, this Iron Plate only had the effect of assisting Cultivation.

Han Li wasn't without having dripped blood to refine it, but there was no reaction whatsoever.

Judging by the Iron Plate’s ability, it was definitely not an ordinary item.

But it just wouldn't acknowledge him.

Held in his hand, it was as cold as ever.

If he Cultivated, the coldness would gradually increase.

“Forget it, let’s Cultivate first.”

Settling his mind, Han Li didn't think much about it. If he couldn't figure it out now, perhaps there would be an opportunity in the future.

Qing Yuan Skill circulated, and the True Qi in his body began to move in a cycle.

The Iron Plate in his hand quickly devoured the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and poured it into his body.

Vast Spiritual Qi surged into his body, and the Spiritual Qi in his Dantian increased at a visible rate… An hour later, Han Li’s body was covered in frost, and the terrifying coldness almost froze his blood.

Although it was the height of summer, the room was as cold as an ice cellar.

Reaching the limit he could bear, Han Li put away the Iron Plate.

An hour of Cultivation was even more than a full day of his hard Cultivation.

Although he could only last for an hour, with the increase in his Qi and blood and the strengthening of his Physical Body, he could withstand stronger coldness, and his Cultivation speed was definitely not slow.

Putting away the Iron Plate, Han Li swallowed a Tiger Soul Pill. The warm Qi eliminated a hint of coldness.

Han Li then got up and began to Cultivate Ben Lei Fist.

“Snap—!”

A punch broke through the air, mobilizing the Qi and blood in his body, and the coldness on him gradually dissipated.

The medicinal power of the Tiger Soul Pill was also being absorbed little by little.

—

Two hours later, Han Li had absorbed the medicinal power of the Tiger Soul Pill.

The coldness completely dissipated, and Han Li also felt his body's fatigue.

Ben Lei Fist was fierce and overbearing, with punches like thunder, each move ferocious!

Ben Lei Fist (1%)

Looking at the Ben Lei Fist panel in front of him, Han Li’s mouth twitched. Two hours of hard Cultivation, with the help of the Tiger Soul Pill’s medicinal power, had barely reached one percent.

“It’s a long and arduous journey…”

Exhaling a breath, Han Li, dragging his fatigue, collapsed onto the bed and quickly fell into a deep sleep.
