Dark Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 105 Martial Arts

After a thoroughly enjoyable morning workout, Zhang Qing was completely drained.

Hu Meier leaned against him, giggling like a little fox who had just stolen a hen, her eyes brimming with affection.

The two embraced quietly, and the feeling was so wonderful.

However, the good times are always so short. As the sunlight seeped into the room through the window, the little fox girl sighed softly, "My lord, I must go back now."

Zhang Qing nodded silently.

He knew that Hu Meier had been accepted as a true disciple by the Hehuan Sect and regarded as a seed for the Golden Elixir, so he could not allow her to stay away from home for a long time.

Moreover, she has a maternal grandmother.

If Hu Meier hadn't insisted on choosing Zhang Qing as her only Daoist partner, the two would probably only have their first encounter and wouldn't have been able to meet again every now and then.

The little fox girl raised her pretty face and said softly, "My lord, close your eyes."

Zhang Qing closed his eyes.

Immediately, he felt his lips being touched by something sweet and soft.

When Zhang Qing opened his eyes again, the beauty in his arms had vanished, leaving only a faint fragrance.

And an embroidered purse placed on the bedside table.

If the two loves last for a long time, how can they be in the future?

He let out a long breath, suppressing the slight sense of melancholy that welled up inside him.

Zhang Qing sat up and casually picked up the purse from the bedside table.

He untied the rope and poured out a pile of large and small pieces from the heavy pouch.

Fragments of ruins!

Zhang Qing was immediately taken aback.

This time, Hu Meier actually brought him a total of thirteen fragments of the Ruins.

He was deeply moved.

It's important to know that fragments of artifacts are quite valuable.

Back when Zhang Qing was in the Changfeng Society, he had to use his military merits to make deals.

Hu Meier must have gone to great lengths and paid a considerable price to gather these thirteen fragments for him.

I am deeply indebted to this beauty!

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Qing opened the enhancement panel.

Physical Strength: 3

[Soul: 5.5]

Martial Arts Skill: 2

[Spellcast: 5.5]

[Powerful: 0]

Everything can be enhanced.

He originally had a reserve of 0.1 of his powerful energy, which he used up last night.

As for where it is used, that doesn't need to be specified.

Currently, the gap between Zhang Qing's four attributes is quite large, with [Divine Soul] and [Spellcasting] remaining his main focus.

After glancing at the data, Zhang Qing picked up a fragment of the ruins and began to absorb the energy contained within it.

[Powerful Energy +0.2], [Powerful Energy +0.3], [Powerful Energy +0.1] —

One fragment after another of the ruins turned into fine dust in his hands, which drifted to the ground through his fingers.

The number of power points in the enhancement panel will continue to increase.

[Powerful +0.4]

When the last fragment of the ruins turned to ashes, the data was refreshed again.

[Powerful: 3.7]

Zhang Qing was very satisfied with his results this time, and even felt that his performance last night was not strong enough, and he felt a little guilty towards the beauty.

With his blood boiling, he immediately poured 1 point of energy into his [Physique] attribute, raising it from 3 to 4.

Zhang Qing has discovered that the stronger his [Physical] attribute, the better the effect of practicing the "Yin Yang Harmony Technique" with Hu Meier. In addition, with the investment in strengthening key parts, he barely managed to fight the little fox girl three times.

In fact, as Zhang Qing's cultivation level continued to improve, the importance of his physical body gradually became more prominent.

This greatly influenced his decision regarding skill point allocation.

Therefore, this 1 point investment will definitely not be a loss.

But Zhang Qing hesitated for a moment before making his next choice.

He was considering the [Martial Arts] attribute.

Initially, Zhang Qing completely disregarded the [Martial Arts] attribute, and even questioned why there was an option to allocate points to this attribute.

After all, the status of martial artists in this world is only slightly better than that of ordinary people. At most, they can only do jobs such as guarding homes and running errands. Their potential is very low.

However, through repeated battles, Zhang Qing gradually realized that martial arts could be combined with spellcasting.

This attribute can enhance his combat power in many ways.

For example, reaction speed, dodging speed, footwork, and, very importantly, close combat!

Previously, he sneaked into Xiahe Village at night and killed the two bastards, Yuan Chongshan and Fu Qing, in one fell swoop. His swordsmanship skills, enhanced by his [Martial Arts] attribute, played a crucial role in this.

This battle made Zhang Qing realize that in close combat and in confined spaces, martial arts could potentially be more effective than spellcasting.

He could easily strengthen his Qingfeng sword to the level of a magical artifact, and then rely on his superior martial arts skills to kill his opponent.

Of course, martial arts are only secondary; spellcasting is the core skill.

However, the two complement each other, which will undoubtedly greatly enrich Zhang Qing's combat strength and methods to deal with different situations.

In this light, the mere 2 points of the [Martial Arts] attribute is rather cumbersome!

Zhang Qing gritted his teeth and smashed in 2 points.

The martial arts attribute is directly doubled!

He then invested 0.3 each in [Divine Soul] and [Spellcasting], reserving 0.1 as a reserve, as is customary.

Thus, the newly acquired Power Points have been basically allocated.

Physical Strength: 4

[Soul: 5.8]

Martial Arts Skill: 4

[Spellcast: 5.8]

[Powerful: 0.1]

Everything can be enhanced.

Now it looks much more balanced, with no obvious weaknesses.

As for the specific effects, we still need to verify them in actual combat.

But after completing the skill point upgrade, Zhang Qing clearly felt his body begin to heat up, his blood and qi surged, his muscles trembled, every inch of his bones seemed to be expanding, his stomach and intestines began to move violently, and his hunger increased dramatically.

He immediately took out some dry food from his storage bag and wolfed it down with some water.

After barely managing to fill his stomach, Zhang Qing was drenched in sweat, and even his skin was steaming.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

This addition of points was like flipping a switch in Zhang Qing's body, causing a dramatic change in his physique.

Instead of the gradual changes of the past.

At this moment, Zhang Qing felt that he had inexhaustible strength within him.

I need to vent!

He could no longer restrain himself, so he immediately grabbed his Qingfeng sword and went outside to the courtyard to practice the "Flowing Cloud Sword Technique".

In the blink of an eye, sword light flashed and sword energy crisscrossed in the courtyard, with the continuous hissing sound of sword blades cutting through the air.

Zhang Qing's figure and the bursting sword light seemed to merge into one, his movements unpredictable, darting back and forth like lightning.

He felt that the longsword in his hand had become a part of his body, and his understanding of swordsmanship suddenly improved by a lot, with countless wonderful ideas appearing in his mind.

At the height of his practice, Zhang Qing couldn't help but throw his head back and let out a long roar.

The next moment, a bright sword beam suddenly shot straight into the sky!
