From Martial Arts Dungeon to Master of Martial Arts

Mu Sheng arrived at Qian Tian's house, which was the largest one in the village.

He went up and knocked on the door.

"Knock knock!"

The door opened quickly, and Qian Tian opened it, looking at Xiang Musheng and asking, "What are you doing here again?"

"I still want to try leaving," Mu Sheng said, "but I know I'm not strong enough, and I hope the village chief can teach me a thing or two."

"What should we teach?"

"That throwing knife technique."

Qian Tian pondered for a moment and then said, "Wait a moment."

He turned and went back into the house, then quickly came out, immediately taking out two throwing knives. He threw one directly to Mu Sheng, and took one for himself, saying, "Come on, since you still want to learn, I'll teach you one more time."

Mu Sheng played with the throwing knife in his hand. This knife was different from Mo Xiaodao's knife. This knife was narrower and longer, and could even be hidden in the hand. If you turned your hand over, you could not see the throwing knife at all.

He followed Qian Tian to a place not far from the house, where several wooden figures were placed in an open space, with several knives just like the one in his hand stuck in them.

Qian Tian, ​​holding the small knife in his hand, said to Mu Sheng, "This throwing knife technique is derived from the throwing knives on the outskirts of the village. Our village has studied it for generations, and that's how we developed your 'One Line Sky' technique."

His expression changed instantly, and he stared intently at the wooden figure in the distance, saying, "The most important thing about this knife is the change in force. 'Tong Jin' is just throwing the knife, and 'Da Jin' can make the knife faster and stronger, but to truly master this knife-throwing technique, you need to 'Hua Jin,' which can temporarily retain force on the knife."

"Whoosh!" The knife in his hand flew out with great force.

"Boom!!" The head of a wooden figure was instantly sliced ​​in two, while the throwing knife continued to fly forward.

"Watch carefully and learn well." Qian Tian stepped forward, picked up the throwing knife, and said to Mu Sheng, "You should have memorized the throwing knife technique. Just follow my movements and practice slowly."

Mu Sheng toyed with the throwing knife in his hand.

He had naturally memorized the incomplete manual of the One Line Sky.

"Village Chief, I'm afraid I've overlooked something about the throwing knife technique. Let me explain it to you, and you can see where I went wrong," Mu Sheng suddenly said.

"Go on, I'm listening." Qian Tian frowned slightly, his face showing a hint of displeasure, but he still spoke patiently.

Mu Sheng then revealed all the remaining contents of the One Line Sky manual.

Qian Tian frowned for a moment before speaking up, "The error isn't serious, let me correct it for you."

He softened his tone and said, "A single thread of skill..."

Mu Sheng compared what he had in mind with what the other party had said, and found that the missing parts of the first half had been completely filled in, but all of them remained at the level of strength.

The migration to heaven also stopped.

Mu Sheng asked, "What happens next?"

"What happens next? Is there more?" Qian Tian was initially dazed, then his face contorted in pain. "Yes, what about the rest?! There should be more!"

Mu Sheng quickly looked up and saw that the entire sky had darkened, and the surrounding villages and Qian Tian's face were rapidly distorting. Soon, everything was plunged into darkness.

He quickly opened his eyes and looked into the empty room.

"I'm back."

"Is this the incomplete copy? I still have so many questions to ask."

Mu Sheng sighed. He hadn't expected that just because it involved incomplete parts, he would be forced to leave the instance.

For example, is the fourth step on that path really sixteen knives?

Is the fifth step 256?

He hadn't taken that path yet. Perhaps the only gain from this dungeon run was completing the first part of the "One Line Sky" manual.

At least his level of strength is enough for him to continue training.

His vision began to darken, and he experienced unprecedented dizziness before finally lying down on the bed and falling asleep.

...

the next day.

At dawn, Mu Sheng followed Ming Liu into the main hall, but Jing Yu and the other two were nowhere to be seen.

Ahead stood a beautiful figure, not wearing a Taoist robe, but a gorgeous red and white dress that made her appear frail and delicate, like a young lady from a wealthy family.

"The abbot and two deacons have left today, so the morning service will continue."

Wait until morning classes end.

Mu Sheng asked Ming Liu curiously, "Who is that?"

"That's our senior sister, also the eldest daughter of the Li family, Li Suyun. She's not usually at the temple. Don't let her youth fool you, she's a master of internal strength."

"Really?" Mu Sheng frowned and asked, "But where did the abbot and the others go?"

"I don't know either." Mingliu shook his head. "We'll have to ask Senior Sister Miaoyin about this."

"Then I'll trouble you, senior brother, to inquire about it," Mu Sheng said respectfully, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

"Sure, I'm quite curious too." Mingliu nodded with a smile.

"Then I'll go to the yamen to report for duty."

"Go."

Mu Sheng then walked out of the main hall and headed towards the government office.

Once inside the yamen, the crowd lined up, and Zhao Hu began calling out names.

After the roll call was completed, everyone dispersed.

Zhao Hu said to Mu Sheng, "You will continue to investigate the case with me."

"Yes." Mu Sheng could only respectfully comply, leaving the yamen and arriving at the clinic.

It was another full day of work, with other constables helping with the search, but Chen Baisheng was nowhere to be seen, presumably because he had been assigned other tasks.

After a whole day, there were still no clues, and the coroner's autopsy results were almost identical to the initial conclusion.

"Do you have any ideas?" Zhao Hu suddenly asked.

Mu Sheng, who was pondering the contents of the instance, looked up and thought for a moment before saying, "If we're talking about a conflict of interest, the Fierce Tiger Gang is the most suspicious. It's just that the Fierce Tiger Gang has been keeping a low profile during our search here these past few days."

"It seems we still need to see how this Fierce Tiger Gang fares," Zhao Hu said to Mu Sheng. "I've explained the case-handling procedures to you these past two days. From now on, you'll be in full charge. The others have other things to do and don't have time to deal with you."

Go back to gamble?

Mu Sheng remained expressionless, simply replying obediently, "I will definitely complete the mission."

Zhao Hu nodded and said, "From now on, you can arrange your own time except for the morning shift. It's getting late today, so you should all go home."

"Yes." Mu Sheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Hu then led his men away.

Mu Sheng returned to Zhenyuan Temple, sat on the wooden bed, and had already put Zhao Hu's words out of her mind.

"continue."

The "One Line Sky" instance is now active.

"If you want to get out of here, you should be prepared to die here," Qian Tian said to Mu Sheng with his hands behind his back.

Mu Sheng immediately said respectfully, "Village Chief, I know I am not strong enough. I hope you can teach me so that I can find my way on this path."

Qian Tian gave Mu Sheng a deep look, a rare smile appearing on his face, and said, "Alright, come with me."

Mu Sheng followed and hurriedly asked, "Village Chief, I wonder if there's any pattern to this path? I'll need to be prepared if I want to leave this place in the future."

I finally had a chance to ask him if there was something wrong with the quantity.
