However, while Xiang Wentian was skilled in martial arts, Jia Bu was not a mediocre person.
Seeing how arrogant Xiang Wentian was, Jabu immediately went up to him personally and began to tangle with him.
On the other side, Le Hou also went into action personally and held Linghu Chong back.
With this, the situation gradually reversed. Linghu Chong and Xiang Wentian were at a disadvantage.
After another dozen moves, seeing that the situation was not favorable, Xiang Wentian forced Jia Bu to retreat with a slash of his blade. He then flashed to Linghu Chong's side and said,"The situation is unfavorable. Let's go."
As soon as he finished speaking, he forced Le Hou back with another slash, then picked up Linghu Chong and jumped into the dense forest beside the road.
Seeing the two of them escape, the Mount Song Sect and the Sun Moon Sect chased after them relentlessly.
After a while, Linghu Chong and Xiang Wentian entered a rocky valley.
This valley was very narrow and could be called a line of sky. Only one person was needed to guard the passageway.
Le Hou and Jabu were not fools, and naturally saw the danger of this valley, so they stopped right at the entrance.
Le Hou said," This place is easy to defend but hard to attack. Xiang Wentian, that dog thief, is obviously trying to take advantage of the geographical advantage. He will kill every one of us who enters."”
Jabu nodded, then shouted towards the valley,"Xiang Wentian, you are the Left Light Emissary, yet you are acting like a coward. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?”
In the valley, Xiang Wentian replied,"Jabu, your goading method is too clumsy. It's useless against me."”
" Xiang Wentian, come out if you have the guts. I'll fight you one on one. If you defeat me, I'll pretend that I've never seen you before." If you don't come out, I'll order people to set fire to the entrance of the valley. Even if they can't burn you to death, they can still smoke you to death inside.”
Xiang Wentian and Jabu were considered old friends. He knew that although this person was ruthless, he always kept his word.
Thus, he brought Linghu Chong out of the valley.
As expected, Jabu kept his word and fought Xiang Wentian one-on-one.
Both of them were elders in the Sun Moon Sect, but Jia Bu's martial arts were slightly inferior to Xiang Wentian's.
After fighting for more than twenty moves, taking advantage of the moment when Jabu was retaliating, Xiang Wentian used his self-created trick to scare people, the Small Technique of Absorbing Power into the Ground.
This martial art was extremely similar to the Star Sucking Grand Art. As soon as he was hit, he was scared out of his wits.
When they heard Jabu mention the Star Assimilation Grand Magic in a panic, both the Sun Moon Sect and the Mount Song Sect were shocked. This martial art could instantly cripple a person's decades of hard work. It was cruel and terrifying, and they had no choice but to be afraid.
Le Hou was shocked for a moment. He did not even think and retreated without saying a word.
As Le Hou left, the Mount Song Sect disciples immediately scattered like birds and beasts.
Xiang Wentian's frightening trick only had some superficial effects of replacing flowers with trees. It could not really absorb people's internal energy.
Thus, in order to avoid being seen through by Jabu, he only used it for three breaths before withdrawing.
Jabu didn't know the inside story and only said that Xiang Wentian had the intention to let him off on account of their many years of working together.
He hurriedly thanked him and fled with the Sun Moon Sect.
Just like that, Xiang Wentian and Ling Huchong finally managed to save themselves by relying on this frightening thing called the Small Ground Absorption Technique.
After that, the original track reappeared again. Under Xiang Wentian's bluff, Linghu Chong quickly took the bait and became brothers with him. Then, Xiang Wentian used the excuse of tasting the sword to bring Linghu to the West Lake Plum Village. After some careful planning, the Four Friends of Mei Zhuang and Linghu Chong were all tricked and Woxing was able to escape.
Along the way, Wang Bukong had been following them in the dark and naturally witnessed everything.
During this time, he triggered two new choices, but he did not interfere too much. He had always been a bystander. The choices he chose were also bystander choices.
However, even though it was a spectator option, there were corresponding rewards.
The rewards for the three choices were Skanda Palm, Maha Finger, and Mandarin Duck Interlocking Kick.
After learning these three martial arts, Wang Bukong's personal attribute panel changed again. It showed the following:
Name: Wang Bukong
[Strength: Grandmaster]
[Internal Strength: Heart and Spirit Mixed Yuan Technique (Transcendent State), Vajra Demon Subduing Divine Power (Transcendent State)]
[External Skills: Breaking Shaolin (great success), Arhat Fist (great success), Vajra Finger (great success), Vajra Palm (perfect), Heart-bearing Kick (great success), Prajna Palm (perfect), Great Vajra Fist (perfect), Eagle Claw Hand (great success), Tiger Claw Hand (great success), Dragon Claw Hand (great success), Skanda Palm (great success), Mandarin Duck Chain Kick (great success), Maha Finger (great success)]
[Lightness Skills: Plum Blossom Dome (great success), Greater Teleportation Movement Technique (great success)]
[Qigong: Iron Shirt (Great Success), Golden Bell Shield (Perfection)]
With Wang Bukong's current strength, although these three martial arts were somewhat useless, they could at least help him improve his martial arts foundation.
The way of martial arts was to be precise, not to be numerous.
Wang Bukong had learned so many martial arts, but most of them were only at the great success realm. There were very few who had truly reached the highest realm. Had he gone astray?
Of course not.
He was accumulating his martial arts foundation.
The reason why the path of martial arts valued quality over quantity was because it was a path from simplicity to complexity, and then from complexity to simplicity.
Wang Bukong's current stage was the accumulation stage from simple to complex.
The martial arts he learned were all Shaolin martial arts. These martial arts were either created by Patriarch Bodhidharma or the senior monks of Shaolin Temple. Even if Wang Bukong cultivated all of them to the Perfection of Martial Arts, he would never be able to break through the barriers of martial arts constructed by the founders. At most, he would reach the level of the founders. If he wanted to break through this barrier and surpass the level of a founder, he had to walk his own path. And this path could be said to be a long and arduous journey. With his current level, he had only just crossed the threshold.
Therefore, it was very important to accumulate the foundation of martial arts.
This was also the reason why Wang Bukong was trying to trigger a new choice.
Back to the main topic.
As Ren Woxing escaped, Wang Bukong knew that a storm was about to break out in the martial world.
Thus, he did not follow Linghu Chong in secret. Instead, he turned north and headed straight for the center of the storm.
Half a month later, an explosive piece of news shook the world. The sect master of Wangwu Sect, Li Zhenqing, had died in his bedroom. He was like a dried corpse, with no blood left.
After another ten days, which was the third day of the fourth month, Liu Tianhu, the sect master of the Immortal Fist Position Sect, died in the hall of his own sect. His death was exactly the same as Li Zhenqing's.
4th month, 24th day, Laoshan Sword Sect's Sect Master Cui Yuquan was killed…
Within three months, seven major cases had occurred in the martial world. The victims had all died because their qi and blood essence had been sucked dry. All the spearheads were pointed at one person, the former leader of the Demonic Sect, Ren Woxing. In reality, Ren Woxing was indeed the one who did all these things. The reason he did all these bloody murders was to announce his return to the entire martial world.
On the sixth day of the sixth month, at the request of the various sects in the martial world, Shaolin Temple took the lead to issue a hero invitation to gather all the heroes in the world to discuss a plan to deal with Ren Woxing.
