Becoming a saint begins with apprenticing under the last martial arts champion.

Lu Changqing heard the shouts of battle and turned around to look.

In the distance underwater, a member of the Umbrella Cult, his mouth and chest stained with blood, his face covered in fish scales, charged toward him with fury.

Their speed far exceeded that of the Umbrella Cult members who were still considered human before.

These guys have changed their appearance and their abilities have improved!

Lu Changqing showed no sign of slackening and went all out from the start.

He manipulated several water jets to surround the approaching Umbrella Cult members. Once they entered the attack range, he unleashed the full force of the water jets!

It crashed into the Umbrella Cult member who had already transformed into a fish demon!

Clearly, the Umbrella Cult members hadn't expected Lu Changqing to have such methods.

The angry expression that rushed towards them instantly turned into astonishment after being hit by the water jet.

The force of the several water jets was like that of a speeding car, slamming into him hard.

Shoulders, elbows, chest, back...

The combined forces from multiple directions caused him to cough up another mouthful of blood, and his internal organs were completely destroyed.

In shock, the Umbrella Cult member immediately breathed his last, before he even had time to have any other thoughts.

A member of the Three-Training Umbrella Cult, who had been enhanced by an evil god, died instantly!

The four people behind this Umbrella Cult member were all shocked when they saw this scene.

The three remaining surviving members of the Umbrella Cult shouted at Lu Changqing, "It's Lu Changqing!"

"Lu Changqing, it must be him!"

"No wonder Lu Changqing is so powerful; he's no human! Besides our Holy Church, what other religious sects have followers in Hong Kong? It must be the Protestant sect that just arrived!"

Several members of the Umbrella Cult were so shocked and terrified that they kept shouting.

Only the Kunlun Sect disciple, dressed in short clothes and looking unremarkable, was sizing up Lu Changqing, ignoring the words of the Umbrella Sect members around him.

After taking two breaths to examine Lu Changqing, the disciple slowly stepped forward and raised his hands.

His movements were very slow and gentle. Enveloped in an energy field similar to that of Westerners, Lu Changqing could clearly hear what he said underwater:

"Brother, I have no grudge against you."

"I don't want to get involved in your feud with the Umbrella Cult."

"But that flower in your hand means a lot to me. If you give it to me, I'll turn around and leave immediately, how about it?"

Lu Changqing also spent two breaths looking the Kunlun Sect disciple up and down.

Then, he nodded, slowly raised his arm, and handed the Qi and Blood Flower he was holding to the other person.

Just as Lu Changqing raised his arm, the two figures simultaneously surged towards each other, causing the water to bubble up!

With a muffled thud in the water, Lu Changqing and his disciple's legs collided.

A sharp pain shot through my calf... The other person thought the same thing!

Feeling the pain in his calf, Lu Changqing retreated rapidly, looking at the Kunlun Sect disciple with a stern expression.

He's a master of the fourth level... and not just any ordinary fourth level master, but someone who has been cultivating for a long time!

The moment he made his move, he activated the double effect of the Yin Water talent.

With that kick, combined with the speed boost from controlling the water flow, it would be impossible for a regular fourth-level practitioner to catch it so easily.

Master!

As Lu Changqing thought this, Liu Qiang, a disciple of the Kunlun Sect, was equally shocked.

He was just one step away from gaining entry into the country.

Having spent several years in the fourth level of training, he believed he was virtually unbeatable at the same level.

Apart from a few masters of internal and external strength in the port city, he should be considered invincible.

But now, this kid we encountered underwater is actually able to unleash such formidable strength with only the third stage of Qi Refining; it's simply unbelievable.

A thought immediately popped into his mind: What kind of unparalleled martial arts has the other party cultivated?

But it was rejected the next moment.

No, judging from his footwork just now, the martial arts he practiced were definitely no more than the third rank.

Feeling a slight stinging pain in his calf, he laughed: "Kid, remember, the one who killed you was Liu Qiang, a former disciple of the Kunlun Sect. In your next life, remember to keep your connections!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Changqing saw the other person's cheeks suddenly puff out, to an exaggerated degree, like a giant toad.

A croaking sound, seemingly coming from the depths of darkness, echoed repeatedly in Lu Changqing's ears.

Despite being a vast expanse of water, echoes reverberated repeatedly!

I've never eaten pork, but I've seen pigs run... It's Toad Style Kung Fu!

Lu Changqing also understood that the constantly echoing sound was not because the other party had actually called that many times, but rather a sonic attack.

He quickly controlled the water flow to completely block his ears.

The sound instantly subsided, and the drowsiness in his mind cleared up as well.

Without pausing, before Liu Qiang could act, he hurriedly raised several water curtains in front of him.

Simultaneously controlling countless water droplets, water spikes, and water guns, ready to unleash their power.

boom!

Liu Qiang, who was lying on the ground and looked like a toad with his buzz cut, charged at Lu Changqing!

Knowing his opponent was formidable, Lu Changqing didn't dare to take the blow head-on. Instead, he kicked out with all his might, kicking up a cloud of dust that completely obscured his figure.

Bang bang bang!

Liu Qiang's head crashed through several curtains of water, and the momentum of the impact diminished sharply.

At the same time, countless attacks that had been prepared all around him fell upon him.

Liu Qiang dared not confront them head-on, and instead kept dodging or parrying.

Feeling the force of the attack, he was startled again.

This kid not only displayed the offensive power of a fourth-level practitioner with the skills of a third-level practitioner, but he also possessed abilities comparable to those of a ghost or god underwater!

But he wasn't panicked, because he felt that such methods couldn't be used frequently, just like martial arts techniques, which would eventually require some effort to master.

This kid must die!

If we don't kill it, it will surely become a major threat if it grows up.

But what happened next was something he never expected: the continuous attacks lasted for more than ten minutes, and his stamina was almost completely exhausted...

At this moment, Liu Qiang's previously confident mindset shifted slightly.

After deflecting a water cannon attack, he abruptly turned to the three Umbrella Cult members watching from a distance and yelled, "Aren't you going to help?!"

"I've almost completely exhausted him!"

"Isn't this the person the High Priest has been hunting? If you can kill him, the reward will be substantial!"

Upon hearing this, the three members of the Umbrella Cult exchanged glances.

Finally, one of them couldn't hold back any longer and immediately responded, "Master Liu, I'm here to help you!"

Seeing this, the other two members of the Umbrella Cult could not resist their desires and joined the attack.

The members of the Umbrella Cult did take Liu Qiang's words seriously. After all, in a battle that lasts for more than ten minutes, even an individual's offensive power would be somewhat weakened.

With Liu Qiang present, Lu Changqing's offensive will definitely focus on Liu Qiang. Even if the three of them are in dire straits, they can at least protect themselves.

But the result was that...

After members of the Umbrella Cult infiltrated the battlefield between Liu Qiang and Lu Changqing,

The surrounding water currents attacked like a continuous barrage of heavy machine gun bullets.

It landed squarely on one of them.

After blocking three or five moves, he could no longer hold on.

Puff puff puff puff—

Several muffled thuds followed as the water relentlessly poured into his body, perhaps damaging his internal organs.

Several more attacks followed, and the Umbrella Cult member screamed in near despair, "No!"

Then, the water flowed down his mouth, into his nose and throat, and finally exploded with a bang, killing him beyond any hope of survival.

The other two members of the Umbrella Cult who followed also met their demise.

Exhausted from fighting back, Liu Qiang was deeply shocked by what he saw.

Feeling his strength rapidly draining away, he knew he couldn't afford to waste any more time.

If it drags on for another ten minutes, he'll die. He has such a bright future ahead of him; he can't gamble with it!

So Liu Qiang stopped fighting and turned to swim into the deeper parts of the river.

Seeing this, Lu Changqing felt that he still had 60% of his strength left. After a moment's thought, his eyes hardened, and he suddenly chased after him!

The dimly lit underwater scene immediately sparked a chase.

After chasing for two minutes and swimming several hundred meters, Lu suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart, and the Qi and Blood Flower he had been holding in his hand began to emit a slight burning heat.

His heart stirred, and with a quick glance out of the corner of his eye, he almost stopped in his tracks.

Because he saw an underwater cemetery not far from him, and in the center of the cemetery was a structure that resembled an altar.

A person sat cross-legged on the altar.

A person who had long since died. Flesh and blood had vanished, but the bones shone like jade, and were entwined with scriptures that resembled golden threads...

This is... what they just called the "inheritance from the tomb"?
