After the family split up, I achieved martial arts sainthood.

After leaving the martial arts school, Gu Xin disguised himself and arrived at a brothel in Qingyuan County.

This brothel is the largest of the many businesses owned by the Qinglin Gang.

This is quite important to the Green Forest Gang.

In any era and in any place, prostitution and gambling are money pits.

Therefore, many masters of the Green Forest Gang were stationed in this brothel.

They were all trained martial arts practitioners.

If you want to accumulate cultivation experience, dealing with these characters is undoubtedly the best choice.

In any case, the Qinglin Gang has committed numerous evils, which has already caused widespread resentment among the people.

Moreover, he and the Qinglin Gang have already formed an irreconcilable feud.

Therefore, Gu Xin chose to come here to fight and sustain his war effort.

After looking around, Gu Xin bypassed the main entrance and entered a nearby alley.

Gu Xin pulled out a pre-prepared face mask and covered his face before climbing over the alleyway into the backyard of the brothel.

It was midday, the sky was clear and bright, but the brothel wasn't doing much business and was rather quiet.

Therefore, there are not many people in the backyard area.

Gu Xin climbed in and quickly scanned the area, realizing that there were no patrolling guards nearby.

After all, everyone in the city knows that this is a key industry of the Qinglin Gang.

In Qingyuan County, few people dare to act recklessly here.

Therefore, caregivers inevitably become lax.

Furthermore, brothels were almost always open at night, and caregivers were active at night as well.

At this time of day, Gu Xin guessed they were still resting.

With this in mind, Gu Xin became much bolder and quickly searched the brothels for the caretakers' quarters.

Soon, Gu Xin found the large dormitory room in the brothel.

A dozen or so people were crammed inside, snoring loudly and sleeping soundly.

【…】

Gu Xin looked up and scanned the area, and his vision was filled with a dense array of bubble-shaped information columns.

These people are not very strong; they are only at the initial stage of mastering basic stance training.

Their cultivation experience is only two or three years.

But they are generally in their thirties.

If I'm not mistaken, these people's stance training must have come from internal training within the Qinglin Gang.

He started practicing martial arts at an older age and had poor natural talent and aptitude.

While one may not achieve great success in martial arts, strengthening one's blood and energy makes one more than capable of guarding the Green Forest Gang's territory and bullying ordinary people.

The Qinglin Gang's influence was mainly built by these people.

"Hey buddy, wake up!"

Gu Xin walked into the dormitory, patted the bed, and greeted everyone.

The nurses, who were sound asleep, were all woken up and looked at Gu Xin with great anger.

"Who the hell are you? What's with all this shouting in broad daylight?"

"Shout, shout, shout! What are you calling for, your father? Get out! You're ruining my peaceful sleep!"

"You fucking want to die, kid!"

As their anger surged, they glared and began to hurl insults.

In that instant, he felt an intense urge to tear Gu Xin to pieces.

"Bang!"

However, Gu Xin showed no shame or anger, nor did he utter a single word of rebuttal. Instead, he responded with a crisp and decisive punch.

"puff!"

The caregiver closest to Gu Xin was knocked unconscious and left in a state of shock, tears streaming down her face.

"Relax, dizziness is normal!"

Gu Xin showed no mercy, grabbed the caregiver's head, and snapped his neck.

"hiss!"

Witnessing this scene, all the nurses in the room gasped in shock.

kill……

Murder?

Everyone was incredulous and couldn't believe that Gu Xin, a mere young man, would dare to break into a room where so many of them were gathered and kill someone.

"Oh no! This is trouble!"

After a brief moment of shock, some people quickly realized what was happening.

"Kill him!"

While exclaiming to warn his colleagues, he quickly rolled out of bed and pounced on Gu Xin with murderous intent.

……

Ignoring the corpses lying haphazardly on the large communal bed, Gu Xin calmly and collected experience packs one by one.

Before long, he had accumulated 31 years of cultivation experience again.

"Deducing the Mountain-Crushing Fist."

Without hesitation, Gu Xin immediately began his simulation on the spot, eager to maximize his strength.

After years of arduous training, you have gained a profound understanding of the Mountain-Crushing Fist.

But even with your extensive experience, you still feel your understanding is not thorough enough, and you are determined to continue your contemplation.

However, your comprehension is not high, and your innate talent is insufficient.

You still firmly believe that diligence can make up for lack of talent, and that the early bird catches the worm, refusing to give up easily.

Finally, after ten years of hard work, your efforts moved the heavens, and you gained a new understanding of the Mountain-Crushing Fist.

【Crushing Mountain Fist: The Pinnacle】

Cultivation experience: 21 years

As the simulation ended, Gu Xin suddenly felt a strange power surge into his body.

This power made his blood boil, and he became even more powerful.

Without his noticing, his arm muscles became more toned.

Both the palms and fingers become stronger.

He clenched his fist gently, as if he had more confidence in crushing the child's skull.

A well-developed fist technique undoubtedly amplifies one's power even more.

"If I were to exchange punches with my third senior brother now, I should be able to remain undefeated."

After sensing the change in his own power, Gu Xin's confidence grew even stronger.

[Cultivation Experience: 21]

Gu Xin patted his chest and looked at his attribute panel.

Then it was discovered that both the Galloping Horse Fist and the Mountain Crashing Fist on the panel now had the words "(can be fused)".

"Integration? What does that mean?"

Seeing the change on the panel, Gu Xin was taken aback: "Could it be that when techniques of the same type are refined to their peak, they can be merged into a new technique?"

I wonder what kind of changes will occur after the fusion?

Gu Xin frowned, somewhat hesitant.

But this hesitation lasted only two seconds.

"Merge!"

After weighing the pros and cons, Gu Xin decided to give it a try.

Since the cheat code was triggered, I haven't suffered a loss.

This change will likely be no exception.

Having read countless books, Gu Xin realized that this change was likely another upgrade to his cheat system.

As Gu Xin's thought crossed his mind, a flash of silver-white light appeared on the attribute panel.

The next second it reappeared, and the information on the panel had changed.
