Holy Fist!

Chapter 457 Dragon Elephant True Scripture, power doubled, breakthrough in martial arts main profession!
"The entire transcendental world is being affected by the Void Root."

Bai Xiao muttered to himself.

The Demon Bird Codex he possesses should also be one of the Void's origins, the Three Pillars of Fear, and the Demon Bird Intaro. Even Grandmasters, those at the pinnacle of the world, have always been influenced and constrained by the existence of the Void.

Martial Arts Association, Mountain Gate.

"Master Bai, if you attempt to break through to the Grandmaster level, be extremely careful. The multiple sources behind these forbidden martial arts, even if they aren't paying attention to you, could cause a huge backlash if their powers instinctively repel each other during their ultimate sublimation. One wrong move, and you might end up dead..." President Ouyang earnestly reminded Bai Xiao.

The two then entered the Martial Arts Association.

They walked through numerous buildings, heading towards the back of the mountain.

The two didn't unleash any spiritual power; they simply climbed the mountain like ordinary people, following the mountain path until they arrived at the foot of a cascading, damp waterfall. Ahead, an ancient-style pavilion stood tall, its emerald-green waters gently rippling. To the left, an ancient tea tree with yellowing leaves stood tall.

The Wudao tea tree is not lush and green; instead, it exudes an air of age, as if it has been accumulating weight for countless years. It looks as if it is always at the end of autumn, with its branches and leaves about to fall.

Ouyang Ming and Bai Xiao walked over slowly.

"The Seed of the Enlightenment Tea Tree..."

Ouyang Ming muttered to himself, took a deep breath, and his aura suddenly surged, his grandmaster's will soaring into the sky like a thunderous dragon. He entered a grandmaster stance, took a few steps forward, and placed his palm on the Enlightenment Tea Tree.

"Om..."

Suddenly, the Enlightenment Tea Tree began to shake violently, the rustling of its leaves sounding like a torrential downpour. The next second, an extremely unique, invisible rhythm of enlightenment silently descended, expanding to an unprecedented extent with a whoosh. Last time, when Bai Xiao was meditating, the rhythm of enlightenment from the Enlightenment Tea Tree only encompassed half a pond. This time, however, almost half of West Mountain was instantly enveloped, every corner permeated by invisible ripples.

In a daze, all the sounds around me gradually faded away.

The entire world before me seemed like a faded painting, leaving only black and white lines.

However, this situation did not last long.

In just two or three breaths.

Ouyang Ming slowly withdrew his palm, and the Daoist rhythm that had enveloped half of West Mountain rapidly contracted. At the base of the tree trunk, an oval-shaped fruit, as green as a Bodhi seed, slowly emerged, seemingly condensing a portion of the power of the Daoist Tea Tree. Its surface bore simple spiral patterns, yet they seemed to interpret the great Dao of the world. A closer look was refreshing and invigorating, bringing clarity to both body and mind.

Bai Xiao, who was standing to the side, turned his head to look.

It was quite noticeable that the Wudao tea tree seemed to have aged a bit more. A few old, yellowed leaves drifted down with the breeze.

"Take it."

Ouyang Ming handed over the Bodhi fruit in his hand.

"The seeds of the Enlightenment Tea Tree have two uses."

"The first method, as I mentioned earlier, is to continuously cultivate the Enlightenment Tea Tree seed, giving it the potential to become a second Enlightenment Tea Tree in the future. The second method, you can temporarily use it as the finest Enlightenment Tea leaf; its effects are even a level better than freshly picked Enlightenment Tea leaves. When using it, simply hold it in your mouth, and the Enlightenment effect will naturally be activated. However, this will continuously consume the outer pulp of the Enlightenment Tea Tree seed. Once the pulp is completely depleted, the Enlightenment effect will disappear..."

Bai Xiao reached out and caught the Bodhi-like fruit.

"As long as you don't use up the last bit of the Enlightenment effect, the Enlightenment Tea Tree Seed won't lose its effectiveness. With careful cultivation afterward, it can still be restored..."

Ouyang Ming withdrew his arm and spoke.

His meaning was quite clear.

If Bai Xiao is in a hurry, he can use the seeds of the Enlightenment Tea Tree as Enlightenment Tea Leaves. As long as a last bit is preserved and the seeds of the Enlightenment Tea Tree are not completely drained, they can still grow into an Enlightenment Tea Tree under careful cultivation.

"The aura of enlightenment emanating from the tree is indeed extremely rich!"

Bai Xiao's eyes flickered.

He felt the emerald green tree seeds on his palm had a subtle fragrance that was refreshing and invigorating.

"Master Bai, are you going to use the opportunity to gain enlightenment from winning the martial arts tournament today?" President Ouyang asked, his hands behind his back.

"Not for now."

"I plan to go to Langya Musashi to select some secret martial arts techniques first."

Bai Xiao came to his senses and put the Enlightenment Tea Tree seed into his bosom.

He certainly wouldn't rashly use the Enlightenment Opportunity before he was fully prepared. Bai Xiao had already planned that when he used the Enlightenment Opportunity, it would be the moment he broke through to the Grandmaster level. With the powerful enlightenment effect of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, Bai Xiao could significantly increase his success rate in achieving ultimate sublimation!

"First, I'll collect a large number of Dragon Elephant Secret Martial Arts to raise my core forbidden technique, the Dragon Elephant True Scripture, to its maximum potential. At this point, my main martial arts profession will inevitably break through, and I'll then gain Ultimate Enhancement. With Ultimate Enhancement, my five martial arts wills can reach unprecedented levels. Then, through the Enlightenment Tea Tree Seed, I'll absorb the Grandmaster's insights from the Glazed Enlightenment Lotus Platform, completely pushing me to the pinnacle of my main style. Only then will everything be ready..."

"And then, next, transcend the ordinary and step into the realm of Grandmaster!"

Bai Xiao has great confidence in himself.

Even though he had only recently reached the peak of his sect's mastery level, his accumulated strength was a testament to his powerful foundation. Moreover, Bai Xiao was essentially cheating; the strength others painstakingly cultivated could never compare to the solid power he gained through cheating.
ten minutes later.

The headquarters of the Martial Arts Association, Langya Musashi, in front of the gate.

"Master Bai, it seems you're aiming to become a Grandmaster next."

Ouyang Ming smiled, as if he had sensed something.

"Actually, although I have revealed many secrets today, there are still some that I have not explained in detail. Once you become a grandmaster, many things will become clear at a glance."

The two chatted for a while.

Finally, Bai Xiao entered Langya Wuzang alone.

Ouyang Ming disappeared without a trace.

……

In the afternoon.

Donghai City, Qunxiang Mountain, Longxiang Martial Arts School.

Bai Xiao returned from the capital with a full load of spoils, having reaped a rich harvest.

In the conference room.

The Dragon Elephant Secret Martial Arts collected by Wuyuan Company and Dragon Elephant Martial Arts School are now in place. At this moment, he has double-digit numbers of Dragon Elephant type secret martial arts of second-rate or higher in his hands, and he is about to have a full feast of Dragon Elephant True Scripture.

"well done."

"Next, we will continue to expand the influence of the Dragon Elephant Martial Arts School."

Bai Xiao, tall and imposing, wore a black and gold dragon and elephant fighting uniform. He quietly observed Fang Bing, the chairman of Wuyuan Company, and Gui Mian before him. His career as the head of his martial arts school was not yet over; the next stage was to strive for a top-tier style. While it was important for the school head to reach the Grandmaster level, the Dragon Elephant Martial Arts School itself also needed a sufficiently strong foundation.

Otherwise, you might get stuck and unable to move forward.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

In the conference room, the two responded respectfully.

ten minutes later.

Bai Xiao slowly walked out of the modern building.

Before my eyes, black notifications were flashing by rapidly.

[Your mission "Contribute a Secret Martial Arts Technique" has earned you +17500 experience!]

[Task: Contribution (Accumulated Experience Points: 17500)]

The traditional martial arts consultant profession has seen a surge in popularity.

Bai Xiao donated all the secret martial arts techniques he had accumulated to Wuyuan Company. Based on a rate of one potential point for every hundred experience points, this totaled one hundred and seventy-five potential points, plus the boost from the martial arts school owner's profession.

That adds up to nearly three hundred.

His thoughts raced, and a cry rang in his heart.

"Dark red!"

Suddenly, the mysterious power of the modifier descended, and a hazy red halo enveloped the entire Martial Arts Consultant profession, causing it to inexplicably distort.

The black numbers inside jumped wildly, plummeting from five digits to zero. At the same time, a large amount of potential points flowed out.

After a breath or two, the light faded.

[Dark Red Modifier]

Potential Points: 459.8 → 757.3

With potential points back to 750, that's enough to upgrade several secret weapons.

Bai Xiao took a deep breath.

With a light tap of his toes, he soared towards the back mountain like a platinum shooting star. A few flashes later, he appeared in a spacious courtyard.

He sat quietly cross-legged.

On a low table painted red in front of them, rows of secret manuals were neatly arranged.

"Mountain-Treading Demon Elephant Skill" and "Nine Wraths of the Ghost Dragon"

Dragon's Roar in Three Winds

……

Bai Xiao opened the book and quickly read through all the secret martial arts techniques, memorizing them. Then, he seemed to be gently lifted by a gust of wind, floating on the air to the emerald pool behind him.

He fell down and landed right on the emerging crystal lotus platform for enlightenment.

next second.

With the Pure Heart talent and the effect of the Glazed Enlightenment Lotus Platform, Bai Xiao tested the Enlightenment Tea Tree seed again, holding it in his mouth.

Instantly, a triple acceleration effect took effect on him simultaneously.

At this moment, he was like a supercomputer, his brain cells sparking amazing insights. The contents of more than a dozen secret martial arts manuals flowed through his mind like water, and he grasped them with ease.

In less than ten minutes.

Bai Xiao reopened his eyes and glanced at the martial arts main profession panel.

Above them were rows of beginner-level secret martial arts techniques.

He slowly exhaled a breath of hot air.

Then, with a single wave of his hand, two bottles of gleaming golden pills flew in from afar. They were none other than the powerful tonic pills that Bai Xiao had demanded from President Ouyang.

Although it wasn't as effective as the one he received during the martial arts tournament, the large quantity was enough to satisfy his hunger and effectively replenish his body's deficiencies.

"Crash..."

Bai Xiao, as if eating candy, directly showed off half a bottle of Qi and Blood Pills.

Instantly, the intense medicinal power radiated from my abdomen, as if a small sun was gradually rising, like a warm stove, continuously baking my limbs and bones.

"almost."

"It's time to start."

With a thought, the Dark Red Modifier popped up.

[Skill: Beginner's Guide to Mountain-Treading Demon Elephant Technique (1/600)]
[Skill: Guilong Jiu Nu Jing Ben (1/400)] +
[Skill: Dragon Roar Three Winds Beginner (1/400)] +
……

"Add it to everything, from top to bottom!"

"Add points until all potential points are exhausted!"

Bai Xiao's mind raced, and he issued the order without hesitation.

In an instant, an incredibly dense, blazing red light descended, completely enveloping the entire martial arts main profession. The enhancement ended swiftly a few minutes later.

Large swaths of black information slid down.

[Your profession "Martial Arts Master" has been upgraded to +2940 experience!]

[Skill "..." "..." "..." has been upgraded to "Perfect"!]

Bai Xiao glanced over and saw a total of seven secret martial arts manuals, instantly upgraded to their maximum level. Rows of black four-digit experience numbers were dazzling to the eye. Each perfect icon shimmered faintly.

[Dark Red Modifier]

Potential point: August 11.3

Ahead, there are only a pitiful two digits of potential points left.

However, at this moment, the main profession of martial arts has already achieved a breakthrough.

"extract!"

As Bai Xiao's thoughts flashed by.

A large number of potential points were then poured into the Dark Red Modifier.

[Dark Red Modifier]

Potential Points: 11.3 → 555.3

White Owl gained another 540 potential points.

"Keep going, keep improving!"

He suddenly grabbed the remaining half-bottle of the Great Tonic Pill and swallowed it all in one gulp. At this moment, even a powerful body like Bai Xiao's was burning hot, and the air gushing from his pores resembled magma.

White steam billowed out, intensely hot.

A few minutes later, the potential points of the Crimson Modifier were exhausted again.

[Dark Red Modifier]

Potential point: August 31.3

Five more Dragon Elephant Secret Martial Arts manuals were obtained, achieving the perfect level.

next second.

Bai Xiao felt a buzzing in his mind, and a terrifyingly hot magnetic field emanated from his body, frantically evaporating the water in the pool. The water vapor surged and soared into the sky, transforming into a white column of mist that shot into the heavens.

It was like a volcanic eruption, endless. The temperature across the entire Elephant Mountain range rose by a full five degrees Celsius in the next half hour. Fortunately, no dry branches or leaves were ignited, preventing a wildfire. After half an hour, the surrounding temperature gradually subsided.

Beneath the waterfall, in the emerald pool.

Bai Xiao's motionless body twitched slightly on his shoulder.

Instantly, every joint and corner of his body erupted with a cracking sound like popping beans. A surge of terrifying power was absorbed by his muscles, lying dormant within, waiting only for the moment of breakthrough.

"call……"

He exhaled a long, hot white breath, which slithered like a python.

Sight ahead.

Forbidden secret martial arts, the Dragon Elephant True Scripture, glows faintly, and is filled with intense thirst.

"A full twelve Dragon Elephant Secret Martial Arts Manuals..."

"The Dragon Elephant Scripture will surely reach a whole new level!"

Bai Xiao's gaze sharpened, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"Dragon Heart Symbolism, refine it for me!"

Instantly, the Dragon Elephant Scripture was empowered by a mysterious force, and its surface erupted with a dense expanse of golden threads that rapidly spread in all directions. Its tentacles plunged fiercely into the secret martial arts manuals.

With a sudden pull, it swallowed it whole.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

There are twelve Dragon Elephant Secret Martial Arts manuals in total, five of which are first-rate and seven are second-rate.

And so, it was completely devoured.

All enhancements are complete.

Bai Xiao clasped his hands together, his entire body erupting with a dazzling golden light. He pushed the Dragon Elephant True Scripture to its limit, causing streams of white-gold energy to surge wildly, transforming into vortexes.

"Hoohoho!"

"Moo moo!"

Originally, it consisted of nine dragons and sixteen elephants.

And now, there are seven dragons and thirteen elephants!

At this moment.

The white owl was surrounded by sixteen dragons and twenty-nine elephants, roaring at its peak!
The number has almost doubled compared to before.

"The Dragon Elephant True Scripture has reached an unprecedented peak."

He muttered to himself, sensing that powerful and terrifying aura.

Bai Xiao's gaze gradually shifted downwards.

On the retina, a row of black information reappeared at this moment.

Your profession "Martial Arts Master" has reached the maximum level!

The main class "Martial Arts Master" will unlock class advancement...
