Having studied for a hundred years, why do you call me the Martial Saint?

The moonlight, as clear as water, spilled across the clearing in the woods.

Gu Shuxian stood in the dense forest, his inner energy gradually being drawn into his body.

Looking at the mess he had created, he finally felt a sense of reality.

He casually thrust the halberd into the ground, the tip sinking into the soil as easily as cutting tofu.

Gu Shuxian suddenly remembered Yan Xiaoshuang's light-footed skills during the day.

With a few leaps, as light and agile as a swallow, she jumped over the high walls of the Liu residence, making others envious!

However, even without his light-footed skills, he could still...

Gu Shuxian bent his knees slightly, then suddenly pushed off the ground and leaped into the air!

He shot up like an arrow, the wind whistling in his ears, and in the blink of an eye, he was over the treetops, leaping several more feet higher before stopping.

Haha, can she still beat me in the high jump now?

Gu Shuxian was filled with excitement, but then she suddenly had a change of heart.

No, high jump is so boring!

With a thought, the internal energy surged within him!

The ever-changing fox spirit!

His body transformed, his arms turned into wings, and black feathers sprouted from his skin, turning him into a giant eagle with a wingspan of over ten feet!

After the inner energy is condensed into qi, the time that each strand of qi can maintain its transformation increases by more than several dozen times.

Gu Shuxian estimated that the transformation used to last only 108 breaths, but now it can last for two or three days!

If one reaches a higher level, the time will definitely be longer. What difference will there be between that and a permanent transformation?

Gu Shuxian felt exhilarated and took flight!

The night wind whistled past beneath his wings, the dense forest rapidly shrank in his eyes, and the houses of the Suishan Sword Sect turned into tiny tofu blocks. He circled once, looking down at the place where he had lived for several years, and felt an indescribable sense of freedom.

After flying for a while, he suddenly thought of something.

He landed, transformed back into human form, and examined the halberd that had been stuck in the ground.

My clothes change with me; otherwise, when I transformed into a beetle or something similar before, I would have already shown my natural beauty.

It seems this garment is considered fur, and I wonder if this halberd can be regarded as claws or teeth?

Gu Shuxian gripped the halberd, a thought flashing through his mind.

He transformed into a golden eagle, looked down, and saw that his right claw was larger than his left, appearing even darker and sharper.

"It really works!"

Gu Shuxian's heart leaped with excitement, and he experimented several more times.

I've roughly figured out a bit of the trick.

This transformation is different from body transformation; it is a disguise and does not change the actual properties of the item.

For example, if this halberd were to transform into wood, it would only be an appearance; it would not actually become wood. In reality, it would still be as heavy as metal.

The transformation of the body is even more thorough; for example, when he turned into a bird, he could actually fly.

Furthermore, one must always carry this item with them when it is being used.

For example, if I transform into the form of an eagle and loosen my claws, the halberd will fall from my hands, reverting to its original form and crashing to the ground.

"It's not perfect, but it's enough."

Normally, this halberd is hidden elsewhere, and when needed, it can be easily transformed and carried on one's person.

Gu Shuxian was so excited that he took off from the spot!

Soaring over the continuous mountain ranges of Suishan, flying over the winding official roads and scattered villages.

Gu Shuxian suddenly had a thought: how long would it take to fly to Wancheng?

I usually walk, but I don't dare to walk too fast, lest someone observe my strength. After all, if someone wants to attack me, I'll be too passive if I'm not prepared. I need to keep some confidence.

Now we can fly directly to Wancheng, transform from the dense forest of Suishan, and then find a secluded corner in Wancheng to transform back. Wouldn't that be even better?

With a sudden thought, Gu Shuxian flapped his wings and flew towards Wancheng.

In dark places, use the owl's eyes to find your way; in bright places, use the eagle's eyes to see far.

Flying all the way.

What used to take an hour to walk, now takes less than half an incense stick to burn before you can see the square city surrounded by walls.

So fast!

Looking down on Wancheng from the sky presents a completely different scene.

The wealthy district in the city center was brightly lit, while the slums outside the city walls had only a few scattered campfires. This contrast between the rich and the poor was far more direct than what one could see on the street.

Gu Shuxian slowed down and hovered over the city.

The feeling is amazing. Above you are a sky full of stars, and below you are the lights of thousands of homes. People on the ground would never imagine that someone could be flying in the sky.

Just as he was enjoying this moment of comfort, his gaze suddenly sharpened.

A chaotic battle is taking place in an abandoned house in the north of the city.

To be precise, it was eight masked men in black surrounding a pale yellow figure.

The figure was a familiar face; it was Yan Xiaoshuang, whom I had seen during the day.

Gu Shuxian looked over curiously and carefully observed the battlefield.

Judging from the range of their movements and strides, the eight men in black should have reached the Inner Breath Realm.

However, it wasn't the small internal energy that Zhao Kui had, which only condensed a wisp of internal energy; it should be a large internal energy that condensed about dozens of wisps of internal energy.

Hmm, or perhaps it's called the Lesser Completion of the Inner Breath Realm? Or perhaps the Greater Completion

The men in black worked together seamlessly, clearly having undergone professional training. Some were the main attackers, some were the defenders, some were the support, and two were the ones who launched sneak attacks.

The fight scenes were like a performance, very pleasing to the eye.

However, as the main character of this performance, Yan Xiaoshuang seemed to be suffering terribly.

Despite her higher skill level, swift movements, agile finger techniques, and exquisite hidden weapons, as the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands, and even a hero can't withstand a crowd. Not to mention, the two bastards were constantly shooting arrows from the shadows, forcing her to constantly dodge and evade, and she couldn't mount a powerful counterattack for a while.

It seems there's a very high probability that this girl belongs to the Xuan Yin lineage...

Watching Yan Xiaoshuang move nimbly, her footwork as light as a feather, narrowly avoiding weapons several times, Gu Shuxian seemed to be deep in thought.

He wanted to enjoy the close teamwork of the men in black for a while longer, but seeing that Yan Xiaoshuang was gradually losing ground and about to collapse, he circled around, found a secluded spot, and landed, revealing his human form.

Then he transformed the halberd into a wooden stick and rushed towards the battlefield.

……

Yan Xiaoshuang secretly groaned in her heart.

After leaving the police station during the day, she investigated the clues about the Divine Halberd Hero on her own.

She initially thought it was just a trivial matter, but things started to look wrong when she investigated the alley where the legendary swordsman had allegedly killed someone and left a note.

First, she was followed, and later she was poisoned in the inn. Fortunately, her poison skills were superior, and she saw through the trick and escaped.

She then turned her attention to the strange figures watching her, eventually tracing them to this abandoned house, where she fell into an ambush.

Eight experts in internal energy cultivation, two of whom were unscrupulous and fired sneak attacks.

She managed to hold out for a quarter of an hour thanks to her superb lightness skills, but her inner energy was already half depleted, and if she dragged it out any longer, she would probably have to kneel here.

Should we use our trump card?

But if it doesn't produce a miraculous effect, then I'll really be out of options.

Just as she was struggling, a figure suddenly fell from the wall and landed beside her.

"Miss Yan, how have you been?"

Dressed in coarse linen clothes and holding a black wooden stick, who else could it be but the one who calls himself Lü Xiaobu?

"It's you!"

Yan Xiaoshuang was secretly delighted, but said aloud, "I can handle it myself without your help!"

"it is good."

Gu Shuxian readily agreed, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and actually withdrew from the battlefield, leaping onto the roof to watch the show.

Yan Xiaoshuang was dumbfounded.
