Chapter 35 Sudden
"A ghost came over just now and was blown away by the palm thunder I tested and escaped?"
Zhou Heng frowned slightly.
He didn't notice a ghost approaching just now, but he actually fought off a ghost.
This means that either this ghost is extremely powerful and can completely blind his perception of Insight +1, or the ghost itself is very good at hiding.
And judging from the evaluation of "invincible", I am afraid that the strength level of this ghost called 'Feng You' should be at least seventh grade, and may even reach the peak of seventh grade.
If the thunder in his palm had not restrained the ghost and caught it off guard, he might not have been able to repel the ghost.
"Judging from these characteristics, maybe this 'Feng You' just now is the real culprit who killed Zhao Yuan? He may also be the culprit who infected Yu He with ghost energy."
Zhou Heng thought to himself and made some guesses, but he was also a little confused and said to himself: "But if Feng You was the real murderer just now, what happened to shopkeeper Qian who was arrested?"
Could it be two ghosts?
Or has the shopkeeper Qian escaped?
"Whether it's one or two, ghosts always seem to appear around me." Zhou Heng pinched his temples, and then took out an apricot-yellow talisman from his arms.
This is a talisman that Cheng Jiangjian made previously to hide his Yang Soul physique. It is said that it can lock his Yang Qi from leaking and prevent it from attracting ghosts due to the combined power of Yin and Yang.
But now it seems that the effect is not very obvious.
"If this ghost is really attracted by me, it means that my Yang Qi has not been completely blocked."
Zhou Heng thought to himself: "Either there is something wrong with the effect of the talisman itself, or the attribute of special attack against Yin spirits is not the so-called Zhiyang soul."
In fact, as early as when Cheng Jiangjian explained the Zhiyang Soul, he had doubted whether he was really the Zhiyang Soul.
After all, the Zhiyang Soul is essentially a special soul, but the "Special Attack Against Yin Spirits" is a basic attribute that is directly added to the body.
Therefore, Zhou Heng speculated at that time that the two might indeed have similarities, but there might also be certain differences, and they might not be completely equivalent.
"I'll ask again when I get the chance to see Cheng Jiangjian." Zhou Heng shook his head and temporarily put this doubt behind him.
He couldn't think of a reason for this kind of thing even if he thought about it.
He still knew too little about ghosts and spirits.
It would be great if there could be an organization or institution dedicated to explaining this kind of knowledge.
"Will the ghost named Feng You just make trouble again after escaping?" Zhou Heng suddenly thought of this, and he began to think about whether to go to Fucheng Yamen now.
Since the master of the palace, Wu Zongshan, had cooperated with Cheng Jiangjian in searching for ghosts and evil objects, it meant that he was very likely to be aware of the existence of ghosts and could go to him to explain the presence of ghosts.
"However, the matter of Taoism still needs to be concealed. For the time being, no one can know that I know Taoism, and it is also a Taoism that can kill ghosts."
Zhou Heng was very clear inside and was not lost in the power brought by Taoism.
According to what Cheng Jiangjian said before, the Taoism passed down in the world is extremely rare, and most of it is high-grade Taoism. There are very few middle- and third-grade Taoism, and there are even fewer lower-third-grade Taoism.
And among these existing Taoist methods, there are only a handful of them that have special effects in killing ghosts.
This means that Palm Thunder, an eighth-level Taoist technique that can kill ghosts, is absolutely rare in the world.
As long as it is known, it will definitely attract the attention of powerful people.
Zhou Heng could not predict how many people would pay attention and what kind of people would pay attention.
A rookie with no background or backstage.
But he holds such a rare Taoist law in his hands.
Zhou Heng himself wouldn't believe it if he said that no one would have any interest in him.
As for how a rookie who had just reached the ninth level could repel ghosts, Zhou Heng was already thinking about how to explain it. .
The thunder in the palm must be cultivated to a great level to have the characteristics of killing ghosts.
Now he is just a beginner. Although the damage to ghosts is a bit greater, it is not too special. He can completely use the special characteristics of Zhiyang Soul to restrain ghosts to get over it.
"Tsk, tsk, it's because there is no backstage, otherwise there would be no need to be so careful." Zhou Heng shook his head and turned his attention to the three silver blessing bags.
He planned to go to Fucheng Yamen to find Wu Zongshan after opening these three silver blessing bags.
"Lucky Bag [Silver]*3: It is all-encompassing and contains everything. You can get surprising rewards after opening it."
"Open!"
"Congratulations! You have obtained the assignable martial arts proficiency [eighth grade] +3."
"Congratulations! Obtained basic attributes: Powerful +2."
"Congratulations! You got 3 taels of gold."
? ? ?
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
When Zhou Heng saw these three rewards, his head was buzzing with anger. If he hadn't been outside and there was no table next to him, he would have blown the table away!
It’s not that rewards are bad.
Except for the third funny gold 3 taels which can be ignored.
The other two levels are: eighth-level martial arts proficiency +3 and strong strength +2, which are actually good.
But Zhou Heng still felt very sorry.
No “lucky as hell” reminders!
Not again!
Not all the time! !
He has never been popular with silver lucky bags, they are all ordinary rewards!
"It doesn't seem to be of much use for the current situation we are facing." Zhou Heng sighed softly, realizing that he might not have the luck of the European Emperor.
Then, he assigned 1 point of eighth-level martial arts proficiency to the "Qi-Breaking Style" that he had not yet learned.
After rounds of phantom explanations and exercises...
"Congratulations! Your proficiency in the martial arts "Dugu Nine Swords: Qi-Breaking Style" [Level 8] has reached 1, and you have officially learned this martial arts!"
"Congratulations! Since you have practiced the martial arts "Quanzhen Neigong Xinfa" [eighth level] and have a good understanding of the movement of internal energy, so by analogy, your proficiency in the martial arts "Dugu Nine Swords: Qi-Breaking Style" [eighth level] + 200.”
"Congratulations! Because you have learned the martial arts "Dugu Nine Swords: Breaking Qi Style" [eighth level], and your understanding of the principles of Dugu Sword has been further deepened, so you are blessed to the soul, and the martial arts "Dugu Nine Swords: Breaking Sword Style" [eighth level] Proficiency +300.”
This series of prompts does not directly add proficiency, but allows Zhou Heng to appear in an independent time and space, where he can improve his proficiency.
However, since external time does not flow relative to this independent time and space, from this aspect, it does not seem impossible to understand it as directly adding proficiency.
In addition, Zhou Heng's proficiency in the "Broken Sword Style" had already reached the intermediate level before. He would practice diligently every day whether in the martial arts gym or at home. His proficiency was already close to the intermediate limit of "2000".
Therefore, after obtaining these 300 proficiency levels, his "Breaking Sword Style" proficiency level directly reached "2000", successfully surpassing the intermediate level.
[Eighth Grade] Dugu Nine Swords - Broken Sword Style: Advanced (1/3000)
"Congratulations! Since your proficiency in the martial arts "Dugu Nine Swords: Breaking Sword Style" [Level 8] has reached the advanced level, it will automatically increase the proficiency of the martial arts that also belong to Dugu Swordsmanship. The martial arts "Dugu Nine Swords: Breaking Qi Style" [Level 8] Product】+1000.
So, Zhou Heng once again went through some "instant" practice.
[Level 8] Qi-Breaking Style of Dugu Nine Swords: Intermediate (300/2000)
"This is really a chain reaction, it's a huge profit!" Zhou Heng was overjoyed. He never expected that just adding a proficiency level would generate so much feedback!
So cool!
Compared to a few breaths ago, his strength has been greatly improved.
Among the ninth-grade warriors, as long as they used swords, it was almost impossible for them to be his opponents. Even if the eighth-grade warriors used swords, Zhou Heng had great confidence in defeating them.
As for the seventh grade, there is still no chance of winning. As long as it is a human, Zhou Heng still can't defeat him. Even if he uses a sword, he can barely survive a few moves at most.
After all, the seventh-grade level is known as "reborn", and there will be a huge leap in strength.
But if it were a ghost, with the special attributes of the special attack against Yin spirits, he felt that he still had room to fight a dozen. If he added thunder spells, he could even hope to kill a seventh-level sword-wielding ghost alone.
"It's time to go to Fucheng Yamen, lest that ghost makes trouble everywhere." Zhou Heng went home, picked up his steel knife, and headed towards Fucheng Yamen.
…
Under the night, the silver moon is bright and clear.
The Fucheng Yamen of Huangtong Mansion is very conscientious and is open twelve hours a day.
When Zhou Heng came here, the lights were still brightly lit inside and outside.
Apparently there are still many officials and servants handling matters.
However, before he could go in, he met an acquaintance.
"Meng Captou?" Zhou Heng saw the person coming and said hello.
Meng Xing frowned, as if he had encountered something difficult. He kept walking with his head down. He raised his head when he heard Zhou Heng's voice and said in shock: "Mr. Zhou, why are you here?"
"I have something to ask the master of the palace." Zhou Heng said truthfully.
"It just so happens that I have something to report to you, sir." Meng Xing seemed anxious and said, "Let's go together."
"Okay." Zhou Heng nodded and was about to enter the door with Meng Xing. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he glanced to the north, wondering: "Why is there a red light over there?"
As soon as the words fell——
Boom!
The sudden deafening sound made Zhou Heng and Meng Xing tremble at the same time and looked over in disbelief.
Where is the red light?
It was clearly a fire that shot up into the sky. The raging flames soared into the sky like a fiery red giant bird, illuminating half of the northern area of the city!
"In that direction, is Yuelai Inn!?"
Zhou Heng's pupils suddenly shrank, and he had a bad premonition in his heart. He immediately used his light body skills and rushed towards the north.
The basic attribute of agility +1 was fully utilized by him at this moment!
So fast!
After a while, it disappeared into the night.
Meng Xing was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then his face became even more gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, "Qian Buduo, you did this too!?"
Immediately, he rushed towards the north area of the city with Zhou Heng.
…
Running with all his strength and using his body-lighting skills non-stop, Zhou Heng felt as if the blood in his body was boiling.
There are constant reminders to improve your proficiency.
But he had no time to pay attention.
Now Zhou Heng just wants to rush there as soon as possible, hoping that nothing will happen to Yu He's family.
Yu He is his best friend of the same age after traveling to this world.
Someone you can call a brother.
"too slow!"
"too slow!!"
Zhou Heng was so anxious that he wanted to teleport over immediately.
However, due to the level and proficiency of light body kung fu, even if he has the basic attribute of agility +1, he will not be able to reach the northern part of the city in a short time.
At this moment, he felt that his Dantian suddenly became hot.
The Quanzhen Neigong mind method actually started to work on its own, pouring his little inner energy into his feet and legs, which immediately made his speed increase a lot again!
This Taoist mysterious skill is an internal skill that can operate on its own. In theory, it can be practiced continuously for twelve hours a day. However, Zhou Heng has not yet mastered it, so it has not been so effective before.
But now, with the help of this pure belief, as well as the almost boiling blood and surging strength, it actually promoted the advancement of this internal skill and let it start to operate on its own.
As a result, Zhou Heng's physical strength increased greatly, his legs were blessed by the inner energy, and his speed naturally became faster!
Meng Xing, who was about to catch up, suddenly realized that Zhou Heng in front of him had suddenly accelerated and disappeared after a while, leaving him far behind again.
"Is this really unqualified?" Meng Xing almost wondered if he was hallucinating or seeing it wrong! ?
After all, I am a seventh-grade person!
Even if he didn't run with all his strength, how could an unqualified boy be faster than me? ?
It’s simply unbelievable!
Zhou Heng didn't notice Meng Xing coming behind him at all. He was still running fast, and he could see the fire in front of him getting closer and closer.
At this time!
A dark shadow suddenly walked towards Zhou Hengyou. It was extremely fast, just like an arrow leaving the string!
Since Zhou Heng was also extremely fast now, this dark shadow rushed in front of Zhou Heng almost instantly!
The two meet each other!
Suddenly, a jet-black spike rushed out from the shadow on the ground. Like a sharp black sword, it pierced the air and stabbed Zhou Heng in the throat with a roar!
"What a coincidence, God helps me! Go to hell, little thing! Let your yang energy become my nourishment!!"
Zhou Heng's expression remained unchanged, his eyes were cold, and there was no trace of panic. Facing this sudden "sword", he felt extremely calm.
He could even clearly see all the changes in the "sword". In his eyes, the attack of this shadow did not pose any threat at all.
So, his right hand holding the handle of the knife suddenly pulled outward! !
Zheng! !
The blade is unsheathed, clear and clear!
Under the moonlight, it seemed as if a silver-white bolt flew out of the scabbard and was held in Zhou Heng's palm.
But this time, he didn't use his sword skills to strike.
It actually stabbed forward!
Point directly at the weak point of the shadow attack!
Replace sword with sword!
Broken sword style! !
By the way, do you think it is better to read two chapters of 2,000 words, or do you think it is better to read one chapter of 4,000 words? Also, I’m asking for recommendation votes on Monday
