Chapter 470
The bone sword pierced Wu Jingang's palm, blood dyed it red, and dripped down along his fingers.
"This---" Wu Jingang felt pain, but he did not slow down.
"Jingang is indestructible!"
His whole body shook, and the skin on his palm quickly turned into a light golden color, reflecting the luster like gold and iron in the sun.
"Hmm?" Qiao Mu's mind moved slightly, and he raised the bone sword and stabbed again.
This time, the bone sword encountered some obstacles, and Qiao Mu added some strength, and then pierced Wu Jingang's palm again, causing blood to surge again.
"After practicing the power, the body's ability to resist blows has improved."
Qiao Mu nodded secretly. As a master of martial arts, he had extremely profound knowledge of martial arts. From the changes in Wu Jingang's physical condition, he saw the truth of the "Jingang Indestructible Divine Art".
The hard skills in this world can be roughly divided into two categories.
The first type is like an "iron shirt". Through repeated and repeated anti-strike training, the warrior's skin and flesh become tougher and improve their ability to resist strikes.
The second type can be regarded as "hard qigong". When the qi and energy are circulated and the energy is used, the body's defense ability will be improved.
The former is a passive skill, and the latter is an active skill.
And this Vajra Indestructible Divine Art can actually be regarded as both.
Practicing such hard skills can gradually improve the body's ability to resist strikes in a subtle way.
There are also corresponding methods of energy use.
"So that's it." Qiao Mu nodded.
He put away the bone sword and pointed it out casually.
The fingertips stayed three inches away from Wu Jingang's waist and abdomen.
It was just three inches of true energy, but it turned into a sharp sword with substance, which was spit out from Qiao Mu's fingertips, piercing Wu Jingang's waist and abdomen, and came out from his back.
Wu Jingang's burly body like a small mountain staggered slightly and fell to the ground.
Qiao Mu had already passed him, and together with Wu Jing, they walked towards the Wu Ji Hui building built on the mountain behind.
"I'm not dead yet, so it doesn't count!" Wu Jingang gritted his teeth:
"As long as I'm not dead, it doesn't count as a loss!"
"Wu Jing, is this what you rely on? He killed the Martial Saint? I will never admit it!"
Wu Jingang was not a fool.
From the performance of breaking his Vajra Indestructible Divine Art with just one finger, he naturally judged that the difference in martial arts between the two sides was like a world of difference.
This made him think of the Martial Saint, whose martial arts were also far superior to his, and who made him look up to him...
Qiao Mu did not stop.
Instead, Wu Jing's steps were exhausted, and he said:
"The one who killed the Martial Saint was Qiao Tu."
"And standing in front of you is another elder of the Qiao family...who has higher martial arts, Qiao Gui."
The pupils in Wu Jingang's eyes shrank slightly.
He suddenly felt like punching cotton with all his strength.
If what Wu Jing said was true.
Then, the martial arts Qiao family, known for its mysterious and powerful civilization, not only has someone who can defeat the martial arts saint... but also two?
The martial arts saint has claimed to be the second in the world until now, and there are still two Qiao family members who can compete for the throne of the martial arts supreme power?
"What the hell is this Qiao family... This is absolutely impossible, right?" Wu Jingang's brain is a little insufficient.
........................................
Passing Wu Jingang, Qiao Mu stepped forward step by step.
This small building standing on the mountain is ordinary, and there is no connection with the world-famous Wu Ji Club.
Just when Qiao Mu walked in front of the small building.
But a rainbow light flashed, and a figure emerged from it, turning into a middle-aged man with a plump figure and a wealthy look.
It was Li Gongde, the Zhongzhou Yuexuan envoy of the Wu Ji Club.
"Li Gongde, you also want to stop me? Start the second level, right?" Qiao Mu said.
Li Gongde was naturally meeting "Qiao Gui" for the first time.
But he naturally had no doubt that the Qiao family elder, who was known for his mystery, could recognize him.
"Mr. Qiao Gui, you worry too much."
Li Gongde smiled slightly, turned his body to one side, and made way for the small building behind him, with a smile on his face.
He didn't look like a successful immortal cultivator, nor did he look like a Yuexuan envoy of the Wu Ji Association. Instead, he looked like a friendly businessman.
Li Gongde glanced at Wu Jing.
These two were Yuexuan envoys of the Wu Ji Association, but they belonged to Xizhou and Zhongzhou respectively, and their responsibilities were different. Naturally, they were old acquaintances.
"Since the Martial Saint is dead, there is no need for the Wu Ji Association to continue to exist."
Li Gongde smiled and said:
"Wu Jingang's resistance is just his personal idea, and his mind has not turned that corner yet."
"The human warrior who can kill the Martial Saint, according to the law of the jungle of Taotie martial arts, the winner will naturally get the Wu Ji Association in the hands of the Martial Saint."
"So, why should we resist?"
"Is this your attitude?" Qiao Mu asked.
"If the Martial Saint were still alive, he would have the same attitude." Li Gongde said with a smile.
"In that case, take me to the armory." Qiao Mu said:
"Tell me about your background. You are obviously a Jindan-stage cultivator with a strong cultivation base. Why did you become the Yuexuan Envoy of the Wu Ji Association?"
"I am just a nobody, not worth mentioning. But since Senior Qiao Gui wants to know, I dare not hide it."
Li Gongde led Qiao Mu into the small building and talked about his family's background without any care:
"Senior Qiao must have heard that before the turmoil in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, this world had a total of 19 sects that had produced true immortals."
"One of the destroyed Ten Earth Sects is called the Merit Sect..."
"So you are the descendant of the Ten Earth Sect..." Qiao Mu asked.
"I dare not aspire to be so high." Li Gongde smiled and said:
"The Ten Earth Sect has long been destroyed, and the Taoist tradition no longer exists. We are just casual cultivators who have obtained the skills left by the Merit Sect."
"We just accidentally entered a cave of immortal cultivators. Later we found out that it was left by a master of the Merit Sect who had passed away. We got some of the Merit Sect's skills from the cave."
"That master was not a big figure or senior figure of the Merit Sect. He was just a Yuanying stage cultivator in the sect. After the great changes in the world, those who can cultivate to the Yuanying stage can become elders of the immortal sect, but it was not the case in ancient times."
"You just said 'we'? In this Wu Ji Hui, besides you, are there other immortal cultivators?" Qiao Mu asked again.

"Yes. Wu Jihui's Sun Xuan Envoy 'Hei Ri', like me, is a casual cultivator who has inherited the legacy of the Gongde Sect cultivators."
Wu Jing beside him interrupted and explained:
"The Xuan Envoy lineage of Wu Jihui can be said to be the brains and eyes and ears of Wu Jihui."
"And if you want to communicate information and send messages across the air..." Wu Jing's face looked a little strange when he said this:
"Before the Qiao family's 'Lingxi Sound Transmission Technique' appeared in the world, in fact, our internal communication in Wu Jihui, the subordinates relied on pigeons to send letters, and the superiors relied on immortal methods, sending jade talismans."
"If there were no participation from cultivators such as Li Gongde, the communication and transmission methods of Wu Jihui would actually be no different from those of the previous generation of martial arts."
Qiao Mu nodded.
It seems that this is the reason why Li Gongde and Hei Ri can become the Sun Xuan Envoy of Wu Jihui and the Moon Xuan Envoy of Zhongzhou.
"Li Gongde, if I say I have a question to ask, will you answer?" Wu Jing suddenly became arrogant at this moment.
Now he was standing beside Qiao Mu, trying to take advantage of the situation to clear up his doubts.
With Qiao Gui's face, it seemed unlikely that Li Gongde would hide anything from Qiao Gui.
"You say it." Li Gongde was still smiling, without any change in his expression, and did not reveal Wu Jing's little thoughts.
"That Flesh and Blood Mother..." Wu Jing and Wu Qizhen had the same origin, and he also knew about the existence of the Flesh and Blood Mother:
"The Flesh and Blood Mother is not a creature from this world. Does this have anything to do with you?"
"Yes." Li Gongde admitted very readily:
"This Flesh and Blood Mother is actually a kind of extraterrestrial creature captured by the ancient great powers of the Merit Sect when they traveled to the outer sky. It is indeed unique."
"And the Flesh and Blood Mother in the headquarters of the Wu Ji Association was actually obtained from the cave of the Merit Sect master."
"Although the two of us, Ri Xuanshi and I, cannot be regarded as the descendants of the Merit Sect, we have learned the Merit Sect's magic and obtained the treasures of the Merit Sect masters. Naturally, we will be regarded as a thorn in the eyes of the Jiutian Xianmen."
"So, it is similar to the situation of the Martial Saint, so we hit it off."
At this point, Li Gongde had already led Qiao Mu into the cave behind the Wu Ji Association's small building.
After many twists and turns, we arrived at the famous Wu Ji Club's armory.
The armory is a building in a cave, with bookshelves everywhere, displaying countless martial arts secrets. At a glance, you can see layers of stacked books, which is daunting.
Compared with these neatly arranged books, the young man sitting next to a pile of books that is taller than a person is more eye-catching.
He is a young man wearing a moon-white long gown and full of bookish air. He holds a thread-bound secret book in one hand and quickly flips through the secret book in his hand.
He flips the pages very fast, and can turn the whole book in a few breaths. This does not look like reading, but more like flipping through a cartoon book.
"Shh, lower your footsteps, you are disturbing me while I read." The bookish young man flipped the thread-bound secret book in his hand without looking back.
"Wu Shushan, are you still reading? It seems that your method of refining the spirit and reading quickly has made great progress." Li Gongde said casually.
Refining the spirit and reading quickly?
Although Qiao Mu had never heard of it, he could guess a little bit.
When a warrior reaches the second level of spiritual cultivation, his memory becomes so strong that he can remember everything he sees, and even vague memories from his childhood can be clearly recalled.
The reading method of this man named Wu Shushan seems absurd, but for a spiritual warrior, it is not impossible.
As long as the words in the book are printed in his eyes, he can close his eyes and recall them----for a spiritual warrior, this is like a warrior carrying heavy objects. Although it is not impossible, he will naturally get tired after doing it for a long time.
Obviously, this is a harsh training method, which makes Qiao Mu slightly sidetracked.
"I just hate that I read too slowly." The young man named Wu Shushan just shook his head and sighed:
"The number of secret books in the Wu Ji Association's arsenal is so vast that it can be described as a vast sea of smoke. Even a martial saint cannot learn all the martial arts in it. After all, human life is limited. No matter how talented or comprehensible a person is, it is impossible to do it."
"I just want to read as many books as possible, and one day I will finish reading all the books in this arsenal." Wu Shushan said seriously.
Qiao Mu glanced slightly sideways again and asked Wu Jing next to him:
"Who is this Wu Shushan?"
"The one who is responsible for guarding the arsenal must be a great person." Wu Jing replied:
"Among the seventy-two sages, he ranks fourth."
"This person is not good at practicing martial arts, but prefers to read books and study martial arts. His skills are a little worse, but his comprehension and knowledge are beyond words."
Among the seventy-two sages who are disciples of the martial saint, they are all rare martial arts geniuses in Jiuzhou, and they all have extraordinary qualities...
Qiao Mu immediately looked at Wu Shushan a few more times.
But he saw that the cover of the thread-bound book that Wu Shushan had just put down was written with "Chrysanthemum Point-Acupuncture Hand".
Just after putting it down, he picked up two books, "Divine Eagle Finger" and "Ice and Fire Double Heaven Kung Fu", and flipped through them quickly, eagerly absorbing knowledge.
"I am really hungry. It can be said that I have received the true teachings of the Martial Saint." Qiao Mu was a little speechless.
Li Gongde next to him reminded:
"The secret books in this arsenal are as vast as the sea of smoke. It may take a lot of time to find the secret books. If you want to start, you can ask Wu Shushan directly. He knows this arsenal very well."
"Then, first get the secret books of the top ten martial arts masters of the previous generation." Qiao Mu said.
"Okay, okay." Wu Shushan nodded and tapped the table in front of him.
The dust was slightly dispersed, and then more than ten martial arts secret books flew out of the dense pile of books and floated in front of Qiao Mu.
A martial artist of the first level of spiritual cultivation can make a flying knife turn, relying on the interference and distortion of reality by an overly powerful god.
In Qiao Mu's judgment, Wu Shushan should be a super-class martial artist who cultivates the spirit.
Qiao Mu simply browsed through it.
In fact, some of the martial arts secrets of these previous generations of martial arts masters have already fallen into his hands.
The rest have been supplemented now.
The fourth-ranked monk Kuye of Shaolin Temple has martial arts such as "Indestructible Vajra Divine Art" and "Tathagata Palm".
The Indestructible Vajra Divine Art is the strongest hard skill in the world.
And the Tathagata Palm is also the first palm method of the most yang and the most rigid, with a reputation that is the best in the martial arts world.
In addition, a super-class martial artist with sound skills left behind the skills of "Po Yue Long Yin Gong" and "Tian Ming Sheng Gang", which Qiao Mu had obtained from Yan Taizu before.
Others such as the 72 unique skills of Shaolin, the unique skills of Huashan Kongtong and other schools... These are certainly the top unique skills in ancient martial arts, but they are no longer in Qiao Mu's eyes now.
It can be used as a resource, which can make his martial arts knowledge more profound.
"I have finished speed reading." Qiao Mu imitated Wu Shushan's previous actions, and skimmed on the spot, and then continued to ask:
"I have read almost all the essence of ancient martial arts."
"Then what about the 'modern martial arts' of the Martial Saint and the Seventy-two Sages? Is it in this arsenal?"
Wu Shushan's eyelids twitched when he heard it, and his eyes moved away from the book for the first time and looked at Qiao Mu.
"Of course there is." Wu Shushan said slowly:
"Then do you want to read the part written by the Martial Saint, or other things?" He said expressionlessly:
"Before leaving, the Martial Saint had already written "The Transformation of the Supreme Man" and "The Transformation of the Divine Man". Do you want to read it?"
