From breaking the limits of archery to achieving martial arts godhood

In the dimly lit room, a boy was wildly swinging a knife in the small space.

The curved sword in his hand seemed as light as a feather, and his movements were incredibly graceful.

The boy swung his knife so fast that the wind from the blade was continuous.

So much so that a shallow knife mark was left on the opposite wall.

This wasn't a cut made by Chen Xun with a knife, but rather the result of continuous blade wind striking the wall, leaving the marks on it.

Like water dripping on a stone.

This knife mark bears witness to Chen Xun's perseverance and hard work, as well as the rapid progress of his swordsmanship.

Just as Chen Xun was getting into the swing of things and was wielding his sword with complete absorption, a knock sounded at the door.

"Who is it this time?"

Disturbed from practicing his swordplay, Chen Xun felt a surge of anger.

However, he quickly suppressed his irritation and asked impatiently, "Who?"

The other person didn't answer, but instead asked, "Are you Senior Brother Chen Xun?"

"Yes, it's me."

"That's right. I was sent by Senior Brother Song Que to inform you that the Wind Blade Hall will be going out on a mission tomorrow. Get ready to go with them."

"Okay, I understand."

"Alright, then I won't bother you any longer, senior brother."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps faded into the distance.

"On a mission?"

Chen Xun frowned, somewhat helpless.

Then, he looked at the "Martial Arts Diligence Record".

[Owner: Chen Xun]

[Realm: Bone Forging Realm (Silver Bones 35%)]

[Martial Arts: Medicine Making (Minor Success 75%), Archery (Major Success 84%), Bull Demon Mighty Fist (Limit Breaking Trait: The Strength of an Ox, Endless Life, Fist Bone), Dragon Elephant Stance - Giant Elephant (Proficient 68%), Gale Blade (Major Success 5%), Gale Stance (Major Success 66%), Gale Breathing Technique (Major Success 58%), Tiger Gallop Step (Major Success 14%)]

This is Chen Xun's current attribute panel.

As for archery, although I practice occasionally, I'm almost at perfection.

Because the Giant Elephant Stake is practiced for only one to two hours a day and requires a lot of experience points, progress is quite slow, and it is still only at the proficient level.

Then, he had also mastered the martial arts techniques of "Whirlwind Blade" and "Tiger Gallop Step".

The fully mastered [Whirlwind Blade] greatly enhances Chen Xun's close combat ability. Unless someone's cultivation level is higher than his, it's difficult for anyone at the same cultivation level to defeat him.

Chen Xun was already able to unleash six sword techniques in a second, making his attacks as if six people were attacking simultaneously, thus surrounding and assaulting the enemy.

The enemy either has strong defenses, which Chen Xun's sword cannot penetrate.

Either you can attack faster and forcefully break through Chen Xun's moves.

Either be fast enough to escape before Chen Xun's knife hits you.

Otherwise, he would inevitably be hit by Chen Xun and ultimately suffer defeat and death.

The complete [Tiger Run] greatly increased Chen Xun's running speed.

Without using the Tiger Run Step, Chen Xun could run a full lap around the training ground in thirty seconds.

After unleashing the [Tiger Gallop Step] at its peak, it only takes eighteen seconds.

It almost doubled his running speed.

Chen Xun's endurance and physical strength far exceed those of ordinary people, so he can run a long distance in one breath, greatly improving his ability to survive.

"In that case, I might already be the strongest in the Wind Blade Hall."

Chen Xun's expression turned somewhat strange as he thought about this.

You should know that, on the surface, he is the one with the lowest cultivation level in the Wind Blade Hall.

None of the other members of the Wind Blade Hall had a cultivation level lower than the Iron Skin Realm.

Only he, on the surface, is still at the Stone Skin Realm in terms of cultivation level.

In the eyes of others, if Chen Xun hadn't mastered a powerful archery skill and hadn't had Song Que's recommendation, he wouldn't have been able to enter the Wind Blade Hall at all.

Who knew that, in secret, Chen Xun had already grown into the true number one expert of the Wind Blade Hall?

"Hopefully nothing unexpected will happen."

Of course, even if something unexpected happens, with Chen Xun's strength, escaping should not be a problem.

So Chen Xun continued his cultivation.

However, going to bed an hour earlier than usual at night is considered a good way to recharge.

The next day, Chen Xun arrived at the headquarters of the Wind Blade Hall to gather.

After the Wind Blade Hall was established, it set up a branch within the Medicine Gang, which could accommodate over a hundred people.

When Chen Xun arrived, there were already quite a few people in the hall.

These people came together into three small groups, each centered around one of the three individuals.

Chen Xun was quite familiar with two of them.

One is Song Liu, and the other is Song Rang.

Both of them were peak Iron Bone Realm martial artists who had joined Chen Xun's forces and had interacted with him before.

Only the third one was unfamiliar to Chen Xun.

However, he did not ask any questions, but instead blended into Song Liu's small circle inconspicuously.

He was assigned to Song Liu's team.

The entire Wind Blade Hall, including Song Que, has a full complement of 34 members.

Song Que was appointed as the hall master, and Song Liu and Song Rang were appointed as the team leaders.

The others were just ordinary team members.

If the Wind Blade Hall grows stronger in the future, it will be able to create more positions.

Soon, all the members of the Wind Blade Hall arrived, with Song Que and Song Wuqing, the second elder of the Medicine Gang, arriving last.

Song Wuqing is the head of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Medicine Gang. He is known for his incorruptibility and ruthlessness, truly living up to his name of "ruthless".

Therefore, the moment he appeared, the entire hall fell silent.

"Is everyone here?"

Song Que looked at the three captains, Song Liu and Song Que.

The three nodded almost simultaneously, replying, "We're all here."

"Alright, let's set off then."

"Our destination is Broken Soul Peak. The Second Elder will be with us this time, so there shouldn't be much danger."

Song Que looked at everyone and said.

Then Song Que glanced at Song Wuqing, who shook his head, clearly having nothing to say.

So the group set off.

Along the way, many eyes were on their team.

Chen Xun felt a gaze fixed on him and turned his head to look, only to find it was Song Qingfeng.

Song Qingfeng looked at Chen Xun with resentment.

Seeing Chen Xun looking over, she didn't flinch, but instead glared back.

Upon seeing this, a murderous intent flashed in Chen Xun's heart.

Although the other party posed no threat to him, their constant presence in front of him was truly disgusting.

"After I get back, I'll find an opportunity to take him out."

As Chen Xun's strength grew, some of his previous concerns gradually disappeared.

Song Qingfeng was unaware that Chen Xun had already decided to kill him and was even provoking Chen Xun.

Soon, Chen Xun and his group left the Medicine Gang and Ping'an Town, heading towards Broken Soul Peak.

Duanhun Peak is located on the outer edge of the Great Wilderness Mountains, more than a hundred miles away from Ping'an Town.

The journey involves crossing seven or eight mountains to reach the destination.

Fortunately, everyone was a martial artist, so crossing mountains and valleys was no problem for them.

On the way, Chen Xun and Chen Hu chatted together.

Chen Hu and Chen Xun are not on the same team; Chen Hu is on Song Liang's team.

Song Liang was the third team leader.

He is also a martial artist at the peak of the Iron Bone Realm, and is quite old, already twenty-nine years old.

The two chatted for a short while before the group encountered their first mountain peak, Niutou Mountain, named for its shape resembling a bull's horn.

The mountain is over 300 meters high and covered with lush forests.

As soon as you reach the foot of the mountain, you can hear the roars of beasts coming from the mountain, which means there are quite a few wild animals.

"Be careful, everyone."

Song Que reminded everyone of something, then led the way into the mountain.

The others followed behind, not daring to wander off.

Not long after they went up the mountain, the group was indeed attacked by a pack of wolves, but they were quickly killed by the group and no one was injured.

The wolf carcass was left on the spot, and the group continued onward.

Soon, they crossed Niutou Mountain and officially entered the Great Wilderness Mountain Range.

As the group ventured deeper into the territory, they began to encounter more and more ferocious beasts.

Such as tigers, black bears, and elephant herds.

Elephant herds, in particular, are tough and strong, and their numbers are numerous, making them very difficult to deal with.

The reason they fought with the elephant herd was because a patch of thirty-year-old three-striped wisteria was growing in the elephants' territory.

This is a precious medicinal herb, with a maximum medicinal lifespan of up to forty years. For every additional ten years of medicinal lifespan, it will develop an additional purple vein.

Forty years of medicinal life, with four purple stripes, also known as four-striped purple vine.

There were more than a dozen wisteria vines in that patch.

It is worth more than a thousand taels of silver.

Such a fortune was not something even Song Wuqing could ignore. So, after some discussion, which was actually just Song Wuqing and Song Que discussing it, they decided to take action against the group.

As a result, the elephant herd was scattered, and several adult elephants even died.

However, Chen Xun and the others were not faring well either. Although no one died, several were injured, and one of them even had his leg broken by an elephant, making him temporarily unable to walk.

There was no other way but to have someone carry him.

Overall, however, the atmosphere within the team is quite good.

The group then continued on their way.

They finally reached Broken Soul Peak as darkness fell.
