Chapter 477: Obtained Dragon Saber

Happy finally managed to obtain Book of Wumu. Even though he did not obtain Nine Yin Manual, he knew that his reward was enough. Besides, even if Zhou Zhiruo could swiftly master Nine Yin Manual, it would be because of the system speeding up her progress. If that manual landed in a player’s hands, it might not bring about any benefits.

Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm was one of the mightiest and unrivaled ultimate palm techniques in the world, and it was far above many ultimate techniques. Its greatness was not inferior to Murong Clan’s s.h.i.+fting Stars.

Dog Beating Staff Technique was also an ingenious martial art that only the sect master of Beggar’s Sect could learn. Hong Qigong, who was one of the sect masters of Beggar’s Sect in the past, had used the most profound skill of Dog Beating Staff Technique, No Dogs Under Heaven, to cause Western Venom Ouyang Feng, an amazing martial artist of his generation, to think about it deeply for three days and nights.

He then needed his whole life to defeat the technique. When he managed it, he was halfway through Death’s door. This alone was proof that its might was not beneath that of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm.

Happy had obtained two of Beggar’s Sect’s ultimate techniques, and all his attributes had risen to more than 100 points in one go, so there was no way that he would not be satisfied.

If there was anything about it that he was not satisfied with, it would be that he still had not obtained an ultimate sword technique that could allow him to stand supreme in the world of martial artists.

Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm was a palm technique, and Dog Beating Staff Technique was a staff technique. Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm was pretty suitable for him, but Happy had yet to practice staff techniques. He had not ventured deep into this territory in his previous life either, so he was rather unfamiliar with it.

Also, he did not have a weapon that was as good as his fourth-echelon Nation Protecting Divine Sword.

Hence, it was impossible for his Dog Beating Staff Technique reach the heights of Flying Dragon Sword Technique within a short period of time. As for Yue Clan’s Fist and Yue Clan’s Spear, even though they were both Life and Death Realm supreme martial arts that were not any less inferior than ultimate techniques and had extraordinary might, Happy did not intend to practice them at the moment.

“Happy.”

Once Zhou Zhiruo obtained Nine Yin Manual, her presence instantly became much softer, like that of a sword that had been drawn from its sheath. Her gentle and pure-hearted side was gone, and she gave off a faint chill and awe-inspiring presence. Her gaze only became slightly gentler when it landed on Happy.

‘If I could master a martial art so quickly, forget about One Emperor, even Zhang Wuji wouldn’t be my opponent.’ But Happy only dared to say those words in his heart. Without batting an eyelid, he opened his mouth and said, “Miss Zhou, if you have anything to say, please do.”

“The greatest secrets of Heavenly Sword and Dragon Saber have been revealed now. But Heavenly Sword is the treasure that protects Emei Sect, so I will bring it back to repair it.”

She paused for a moment before she picked up the two pieces of Dragon Saber which had fallen in the cabin and handed them to Happy. “Dragon Saber is yours now. If you repair it, it will still be a peerless divine weapon. Take it and protect yourself.”

The system gave him a notification.

“Ding!

“Obtained the broken Dragon Saber.

“The broken Dragon Saber:

“Increase damage by 2,000 points. Increase weapon defense by 1,000 points. Increase all attributes by 20 points. Dragon Saber’s blade can easily cut down any normal weapon. It can reduce the durability of masterpieces. It contained the profound secret of killing dragons. Once you stimulate the saber glare within Dragon Saber, you can easily attain the effect of destroying body fortifications and increase your damage.

“Book of Wumu and Nine Yin Manual have been taken, and the saber has been broken into two, but if you fuse the sides with two Vajra Stones and one grade two Stone Birthing Original Liquid Essence, you can repair it.”

Once Zhou Zhiruo finished said that, she ceased talking. She held the Nine Yin Manual that would allow her to quickly master the technique and began to study it closely.

When they returned to the port at Yangjiang, Zhou Zhiruo bade farewell to Happy indifferently and left Yangjiang County as if she was drifting away from it.

Happy watched Zhou Zhiruo leave into the distance in her snow-white robes quietly as he stood on the spot. ‘Sect Leader Zhou, we’ll meet again someday,’ he said in his heart.

The current Zhou Zhiruo was no longer the pure and kindhearted fisherman’s daughter.

She was now Sect Leader Zhou of Emei Sect, who had quickly mastered Nine Yin Manual!

However, only Happy knew about all that right then.

The people who recognized Zhou Zhiruo and followed her secretly because they thought that the heavens had decided to give them a chance did not know that from the moment they followed her out of the city, they had put one of their feet into the coffin!

The current Zhou Zhiruo had the power of a sect leader.

She was in Inaction Realm, or perhaps even stronger.

*****

Meanwhile, Happy, who had the broken Dragon Saber with him, did not have anyone trying to attack him to steal his items. Soon after Zhou Zhiruo left, he vanished from Yangjiang County.

The battle at Spirit Snake Island, which was something many people paid attention to and countless martial artists looked forward to while craning their heads quietly, came to an end when Zhou Zhiruo showed her might by using Nine Yin Skeleton Claw to kill nearly one hundred martial artists!

The fight between One Emperor and Happy did not happen as many people hoped, but it caused even more a.s.sumptions and discussions.

However, they soon vanished in the peace that lasted for half a month in the game.

*****

During the time Happy carried out his quest, Wandering Know-it-all’s World of Martial Arts Secret News Log changed every day. Powerful players who reached Life and Death Realm continued to show up one after another. They sprung up like mushrooms after a shower.

The royal mausoleum was no longer the only region that produced grade one masterpieces. Places such as Sky Demon Sect, Taichi Sword Sect, Yellow Emperor’s Ruins, Raging Aquatic Dragon Island in Changjiang River Basin, and the famous Thirteen Connected Fortresses became popular places to train and farm treasures among martial artists.

The current World of Martial Arts was no longer as it was before, where the people on Dragon Rank, Phoenix Rank, and Famous People Rank enjoyed all the glory and fame.

Everyone was in Life and Death Realm, and their strength was equal!

When two or three martial artists partied together, they no longer needed to bow down to the famous players. The fights between players when they had a disagreement could be seen everywhere in the game.

Fighting against other players in the game required abilities. Practicing martial arts was no longer that important. Since their qi realms were the same and the levels of their martial arts were not that far apart, the necessity of good equipment became even clearer.

The price for various masterpieces with high echelons increased by leaps and bounds.

Most of the martial artists set their eyes on third-echelon grade two masterpieces or third-echelon grade one masterpieces. Sometimes, they even paid huge sums of real money for a suitable weapon to increase their strength in the game and their status in the world of martial artists.

Those with slightly more capabilities had already pushed fourth-echelon masterpieces to one billion taels of silver.

However, the fourth-echelon masterpieces were still few and far in between. Most of them were also controlled by the four top-cla.s.s sects.

Yes, it was four top-cla.s.s sects.

Ever since Mu Clan ignored Cla.s.s One Hall, stationed themselves in Western Region, and even fought multiple b.l.o.o.d.y battles against them, they displayed their strength and foundation to the world. They swiftly became a top-cla.s.s clan even though they rose to power later.

The great players in Western Region who were originally from Beautiful Robes Faction were led by Mu Clan’s second clan master, Phoenix Dances, and all of them were equipped with third-echelon masterpieces! Everyone had a large number of Dew Pills with them, and they fought with their lives on the line.

They used up hundreds of medicinal pills, and they destroyed two of Cla.s.s One Hall’s branches in Western Region before they built five branches themselves. They pummelled Cla.s.s One Hall so badly that the other fled back to Beijing in a pathetic fas.h.i.+on. Even if they had a few core members with them, they could not escape the fate of being killed!

Then, with thirty-seven branches, Mu Clan was recognized by an innumerable number of martial artists as the fourth top-cla.s.s, rich, and powerful sect!

Mu Clan officially rose to power in World of Martial Arts.
