Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 285 New Mount

In order to prevent the Fire Qilin from escaping again, Huang Sixi first set up an interception trap outside the cave, and then led Roaring Sky Dog into the cave.

The terrain inside the cave is not complicated and it is much smaller than Lingyun Cave.

Huang Sixi walked along the tunnel for a cup of tea and reached the end, finding himself in a cave that was more than ten meters square.

The Fire Kirin was lying on the ground, whimpering softly, and seemed to be dying. Huang Sixi was close to it, but it could hardly notice him.

Unfortunately, its left eye was broken again, oozing fire and blood. Two bloody holes appeared on the part of its back where the scales had fallen off, as if it had been pierced by some domineering finger force.

Back in the Lingyun Cave, Huang Sixi once stabbed the Fire Kirin in the back with the Dragon Subduing Sword, but the Fire Kirin did not show any signs of weakness after being hit by the sword. Its Kirin blood could heal the wound by itself, and the sword wound would soon be healed.

But the bloody hole on its back could not be healed at this moment, which showed that the power of this finger was far stronger than Huang Sixi's Dragon Subduing Sword.

After observing the Fire Kirin's weak state, Huang Sixi guessed that its internal organs were shattered by this finger force. As the injuries were too serious, the Fire Kirin had to concentrate its energy to repair its internal organs first and had no time to take care of its eyeballs and back injuries for the time being.

"The more seriously injured it is, the better. It will be easier to capture it and save me from having to take action again!"

When Huang Sixi thought of this, he flipped his palm, pinched out the Ice Soul, and shot it into the blood hole on the back of the Fire Kirin from several feet away. Then he tightly grasped the Snow Drinking Knife, infused his true energy into the knife, and was ready to go.

If the Ice Soul cannot freeze the Fire Kirin, Huang Sixi will immediately attack and use "Three Feet of Ice".

Unexpectedly, the Fire Kirin was so badly injured that an Ice Soul was enough to deprive it of the power to fight back.

The waves of fire on its body had originally been extinguished, but it was suddenly possessed by the ice spirit, and its entire body seemed to be covered with a layer of cold white frost. The beast's body became stiff and could no longer move.

Only its right eye could still see people and things. It looked at Huang Sixi walking towards it and showed a trace of panic.

It still remembers Huang Sixi clearly. That day in Lingyun Cave, he beat it until it bled profusely, forcing it to flee its nest. This time it was seriously injured and unable to stand, all thanks to Huang Sixi.

It thought Huang Sixi had come specifically to hunt it down, and then it showed its violent side again, struggling to open its mouth and blew out waves of fire, trying to dispel the icy cold air.

When Xiaotian Dog saw that it was about to go crazy, it stood beside Huang Sixi and barked fiercely. The tiger was so big that Xiaotian Dog was naturally afraid of it, but in order to protect its master, Xiaotian Dog still mustered up the courage to take a biting stance.

Fortunately, Huang Sixi had no intention of taking action. He sheathed the Xueyin Sword, raised his palm and pressed it on the side of the Fire Qilin, sending a stream of Rama Qi into it.

This kind of Qi Fire Qilin was also very familiar to Huang Sixi. Huang Sixi first came into contact with it in Lingyun Cave. He had once sent it some luck to express his friendship, but it did not appreciate it at the time, so Huang Sixi beat it up.

It found that when the true energy was flowing within its body, the injuries all over its body actually showed signs of alleviation. It immediately suppressed its anger and stopped resisting Huang Sixi, and obediently accepted Huang Sixi's treatment.

Huang Sixi circulated his Qi inside the animal and nodded, thinking: "Its internal organs really have been severely damaged, shattered by the force of the finger! But who was it that applied the force of the finger to it?"

As far as Huang Sixi knows, in the martial arts world, there are two most powerful finger techniques. One is the Sword Demon's "Broken Vein Sword Qi", and the other is Xiong Ba's "Three-Point Divine Finger".

However, although the Sword Demon's sword energy was emitted from ten fingers, its power was like Huang Sixi's Six Meridians Sword Energy. On the surface it was finger technique, but in fact it was sword technique, and it was difficult to shoot out of the blood hole on the back of the Fire Kirin.

Judging from this, the blood hole should have been caused by the "Three-Point Divine Finger".

Just now outside the cave, Huang Sixi had become suspicious because the only masters who had appeared nearby recently were Bu Jingyun and Xiong Ba.

Then the master who seriously injured Fire Kirin was most likely Xiong Ba. Only this top master could put Fire Kirin in danger.

After finding out the extent of Fire Kirin's injuries, Huang Sixi began to diagnose and treat him.

In the following days, Huang Sixi lived in the cave and used Rama's Qi to heal the Fire Kirin.

This auspicious beast has the talent of self-healing. With the help of Rama's true energy, its left eye gradually grew back and the bloody hole on its back healed and formed a scab.

But the Fire Kirin was not grateful for Huang Sixi's help. If it had not been chased out of Lingyun Cave by Huang Sixi, it would not have encountered this disaster.

However, it was no longer hostile to Huang Sixi, but completely resolved the feud with Lingyun Cave. From now on, if Huang Sixi goes to Lingyun Cave to pick blood bodhi again, it will not stop him.

Seeing that its condition had improved, Huang Sixi wanted to leave the cave and return to his old nest in Lingyun Cave, so he took out the three scales that had fallen off.

Then he made a proposal to it: "I can reattach these scales to your back. Do you want to regenerate them?"

There was no hesitation at all.

The more scales that fall off, the more weaknesses the Fire Kylin has. If the three scales could return to its body, the Fire Kylin would be willing to do so.

It immediately nodded towards Huang Sixi.

"it is good!"

Huang Sixi added: "Since you agree, then I will tell you the conditions for reconnecting the scales. Your Qilin blood will be of great use to me. I hope you can provide me with some fire blood regularly. Of course, this is based on the premise that you are not injured. How often you think it is appropriate to provide it and how much you should provide each time is all up to you!"

After hearing this, the Fire Kylin suddenly opened its flaming mouth and lowered its head to spit out a ball of flames.

After the flames died down, a shallow pit was burned out on the ground, with a bowl-sized amount of Qilin blood gathered in the pit.

The Fire Kirin looked up at Huang Sixi. When it saw that Huang Sixi didn't express anything, it thought that his blood volume was too low, so it opened its mouth again and continued to increase its blood volume.

Huang Sixi stopped him and said, "Don't talk nonsense anymore. As long as you are willing to donate blood, it will be fine. If you donate too much at once, I can't use it all! Besides, it will take a long time to reconnect your scales. During this time, you will be my mount and travel around the world. You may not be able to return to Lingyun Cave for several years. Can you accept this?"

He did not regard the Fire Qilin as an animal, and spoke to it as if he was communicating with a human.

Huo Qilin also understood his meaning clearly.

This time it did not agree to Huang Sixi, not because it was dissatisfied with its status as a mount, but because it had caused trouble in the martial arts world before, and once the martial arts masters met it, they all shouted to kill it.

If it followed Huang Sixi out to explore, the risk of losing its life would be too high. It couldn't risk its life just to restore the three scales.

However, when it thought back to Huang Sixi's display of force, it seemed that he could help it avenge its injury, so it might not be a bad idea for it to serve Huang Sixi.

It hesitated because of this.

Huang Sixi saw this and gave it another reward: "You have lost a total of four scales. Although the last scale has been destroyed, I have a way to make you grow it back!"

Its fourth scale had fallen off over 10 to 20 years ago. It was cut off by the Duan family and forged into the Fire Scale Sword. It is impossible to restore it to its original state.

But Huang Sixi was not deceiving it.

At that time, Huang Sixi returned to the bloody world and picked a Udumbara flower in Tianshan Mountain. He refined five Udumbara pills. After taking them, people's white hair can turn black and they can return to youth.

Huang Sixi gave three Udumbara pills to He Tieshou, Fei Hongjin and Jiunan, and kept two for himself as backup.

After he entered the world of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, he gave another one to the Divine Eagle, which helped it grow feathers again.

Currently, he has one last Udumbara Pill left, which should help the Fire Kirin grow new scales. However, the Udumbara Pill is too expensive, so Huang Sixi plans to keep the last one on him as a backup and will not give it to the Fire Kirin for the time being.

He has the seeds of the Udumbara flower in his Qiankun Yiqi bag. He will plant the flower in Fengyun Jianghu. When the flower blooms in the future, he will refine new pills for Fire Kirin.

Although the Udumbara flower only blooms once every sixty years, which seems like a long time to mortals, it only takes a blink of an eye to an immortal auspicious beast like the Fire Qilin. The Fire Qilin is definitely willing to wait.

It is indeed so.

After listening to Huang Sixi's explanation, Huo Qilin no longer hesitated and agreed to follow Huang Sixi in the world.

Huang Sixi waved his hand at it and said, "Go outside the mountain and hunt some game, and roast them! There are traps outside the cave, so be careful when you go out!"

Upon hearing this, the Fire Qilin was stunned for a moment, then turned around and rushed out of the cave like a gust of wind.

Huang Sixi didn't really want to eat game, he just wanted to test whether the Fire Kirin was obedient.

After a while, the Fire Kylin returned carrying a white-browed tiger. It put the tiger's carcass on the ground, stretched out its claws to peel off the skin, and then immediately started to breathe fire and grill it.

Huang Sixi smiled slightly, sat down cross-legged, took out Shi Wuzun's Buddhist beads and Dugu Ming's sword, and began to examine the two relics.

Roaring Sky Dog lay loyally beside Huang Sixi, but he stared at the greasy tiger corpse with wide eyes, and his tears were all over the ground.

The Buddhist beads of Shi Wuzun contain the secret method of "Tathagata Palm", while the sword of Dugu Ming contains the secret method of "Dragon Subduing Divine Leg".

He first learned the "Tathagata Palm".

After he succeeded in infusing his body, he learned that there were nine moves in the Tathagata Palm. He also finally understood that the Qi palm move used by Shi Wu Zun was actually the fifth move of the Tathagata Palm, 'Boundless Buddha Dharma'.

The defense of the eighth move 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage to the Buddha' is extremely powerful, which makes Huang Sixi full of expectations for the final ninth move.

Who would have thought that after he had comprehended the entire essence of "Rulai Palm", he was greatly disappointed, as the ninth move "Sacrifice One's Life to Become a Buddha" was actually a useless move.

As the name suggests, 'Sacrificing One's Life to Become a Buddha' means transferring one's lifelong inner strength to others. Once the transfer is over, it will be reduced to ashes. This move was originally used by eminent monks when they passed away.

There is no way Huang Sixi would use this trick.

However, the two unique skills of "Boundless Buddha Dharma" and "Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage to the Buddha" are enough for Huang Sixi to use in martial arts battles.

What's more, Huang Sixi inherited all the internal strength of Shi Wuzun. Shi Wuzun practiced the authentic internal skills of Buddhism and had a solid foundation, which covered the internal strength of Nie Renwang that Huang Sixi inherited last time.

At present, Huang Sixi's internal strength has achieved some success, far exceeding his self-cultivated internal strength.

His current self-cultivated internal strength is still based on the basic innate true qi cultivated in Changchun Valley of Tianlong Jianghu. This amount of true qi is not even enough for him to activate "Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage to the Lord".

He wanted very much to improve his internal strength, but unfortunately he had not come across a suitable internal strength technique.

In the martial arts world, the most famous internal power martial art is undoubtedly Xiong Ba's "Three-Point Return to Origin Qi". In the future, Huang Sixi will find a way to master this internal power.

Afterwards, Huang Sixi read the key points of "The Dragon Subduing Divine Leg".

After reading it, he exclaimed: "It turns out that this 'Dragon Subduing Leg' is also known as 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Legs'. The moves are quite similar to 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms'. No wonder I felt so familiar when Dugu Ming performed the leg moves!"

Of course, "The Dragon Subduing Leg" is not derived from "The Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing", but it takes a different approach, using the legs to generate force, which makes it more powerful.

Especially the last move of "The Dragon Subduing Kick" 'Kill the Dragon and Seek the Way', which is based on one's own internal strength. Once this move is launched, the true energy is like a mountain torrent, and the farther the impact range, the wider the lethality.

This move is most suitable for dealing with sieges. As long as the kick is performed properly, dozens of people can be killed at the same time.

Inspired by 'Kill the Dragon and Seek the Way', Huang Sixi pondered, "I have already performed 'Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing' up to the seventeenth palm, with only the last palm left to be completed. Perhaps I can end 'Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing' with a move that can kill many people with my palms, just like 'Kill the Dragon and Seek the Way'!"

Although he had such an idea, he would not fully incorporate 'Kill the Dragon and Seek the Way' because this move consumed too much internal energy. Every time he performed it, he would draw at least half of the internal energy in his body. Although he could kill many enemies, he would also be exhausted.

He must avoid the energy-consuming defect of 'Kill the Dragon and Seek the Way'. He can try to learn from the eighth move of 'Tale of the Tathagata Palm', 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage to the Buddha'. This move can borrow external force for his own use.

However, Huang Sixi was not in a hurry to launch the last palm. There were countless magical skills in the martial arts world. Huang Sixi would study hundreds of martial arts repeatedly. If he could not perform it to perfection, he would not launch the last palm.

After he had fully comprehended the "Tathagata Palm" and the "Dragon Subduing Leg", he did not waste time in the cave.

He had promised Sky Roaring Dog that he would first find Fire Qilin and then avenge Sky Roaring Dog's old master.

Now that the Fire Kirin has been tamed, he lets Roaring Sky Dog start tracking Bu Jingyun's whereabouts.

This morning.

Huang Sixi rushed out of the cave riding the Fire Qilin, with Roaring Sky Dog leading the way, and ran madly following Bu Jingyun's scent.

Half a day later, Roaring Sky Dog stopped at the bank of a big river. It barked loudly at the river but did not move forward.

Huang Sixi saw that it was frowning, so he asked, "Did Bu Jingyun jump into the river? You can't find his scent anymore?"

Roaring Sky Dog howled bitterly and nodded.

It hasn't rained these days, so Xiaotian Dog can smell the lingering scent of Bu Jingyun on land, but once Bu Jingyun enters the water, the scent will completely disappear.

Huang Sixi comforted Xiaotian Dog, "On the day of the beginning of winter, the Sword Saint and Xiong Ba will have a decisive battle. On that day, Bu Jingyun will definitely return to the Tianxiahui headquarters. We will be able to stop him sooner or later!"

Huang Sixi was considering whether to rush to the Tianxiahui headquarters now, after all, the beginning of winter was not far away.

At this time, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the other side of the river. More than ten horses galloped out along the shore. All the people on the horses were dressed as constables. They were exhausted, as if they were rushing to some important meeting.

Huang Sixi used his inner strength to eavesdrop on the conversation of the detectives.

"The Lord of the God Catchers has sent a message that the Qilin Arm has appeared in Yanzidu. We must catch him this time!"

"Hey, actually, Qilin Arm has done a lot of good deeds in the two lakes. That bloody case happened more than 20 years ago. Why should we pursue it again?"

"It's all because the victim of that bloody case was the current county magistrate. The Qilin Arm massacred the entire family of the county magistrate. Which official in the world doesn't hate him to the core? Let alone the past twenty years, even if it's two hundred years, we will investigate to the end!"

"In fact, Lord Catcher could have turned a blind eye, but why is he unwilling to give Qilin Arm a chance to live?"

"Lord Catcher is well-known for his impartiality. For the sake of his reputation, he certainly cannot bend the law for personal gain!"

"Too!"
