From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

"Pah! This is fucking awful!"

Outside Yongqiu City, inside a dilapidated temple, a man with a scar near his eye spat out crumbs of bread from his mouth, looked at the remaining half of a moldy flatbread in his hand, and angrily threw it to the ground.

The scarred man sat against the wall, his brows furrowed. He was out of food and insisted that he had to go into town tomorrow.

Although those people from the Fufeng Association have very keen senses, he is well-covered up and should not be discovered.

Freshly steamed buns, a whole roasted chicken, and large, stewed pork knuckles...

The scarred man closed his eyes, drooling as he thought about it. He was thinking that when he went to town tomorrow, he would definitely have a good meal. Oh, and he'd also need a jar of fine wine that was over ten years old.

Click!

Just as I was enjoying myself, a soft sound came from the doorway.

The scarred man suddenly opened his eyes and saw a man wearing a scorpion mask standing there.

"Sigh~"

Looking at the broken branch under his feet, Chen Shi sighed, realizing he was simply inexperienced.

Then he took a deep breath and looked at the scarred man. Since a sneak attack was no longer an option, he would confront him head-on.

"People from the Fufeng Society? No, that's not right."

Upon seeing Chen Shi wearing a mask, the scarred man immediately shuddered.

But then, seeing that there was no Fufeng Association emblem on his mask, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Perhaps this person just happened to be wearing a mask.

As long as they are not members of the Fufeng Society, it doesn't matter whether they are enemies seeking revenge or bandits who just happened to be passing by and robbed someone.

"I am not a member of the Fufeng Society yet, but killing you will be my pledge of allegiance."

Chen Shi spoke, his voice tinged with a hint of mockery.

"屮!"

The scarred man's eyes widened, he let out a loud curse, and instinctively grabbed the two knives beside him, immediately lunging at Chen Shi.

Damn!

Despite his extreme caution, fleeing from Jianwai Road all the way to Jiangnan Road, the Fufeng Society still managed to find him in the unfamiliar territory of Yongqiu.

In his anger and terror, the scarred man's first thought was to run away. But before running away, he had to kill the man in front of him.

Although they were assigned by the Fufeng Society, fortunately, they were not assassins from the Yabu tribe, so they shouldn't be too difficult to deal with.

Rushing forward, he unleashed a powerful, split-hit strike at Chen Shi.

Chen Shi remained calm, shifting his feet slightly to the side and dodging the attack.

But the scarred man was wielding two swords, and the other sword came slashing at his waist immediately afterward.

clang!

With a sharp sound, Chen Shi blocked the knife with the back of his hand.

"Hmm? Blood and Qi are solidifying!"

Looking at the armor-like skin formed by the condensation of blood energy on the back of Chen Shi's hand, the scarred man frowned instantly.

I thought he was just a newbie who hadn't even joined the guild yet, but I never expected him to be a master of blood qi condensation!

Fortunately, judging from the degree of his physical transformation, he has probably only just begun his cultivation.

"die!"

With a roar, the scarred man swung his twin swords like a hurricane, unleashing a dozen slashes at Chen Shi.

Chen Shi's eyes widened slightly, and he suddenly stepped back, creating a safe distance of several meters.

Thus, even after the scarred man unleashed his power two feet higher, he still couldn't touch him.

Whoops!

Pulled by the air currents, Chen Shi leaped into the air and landed directly behind the scarred man, his hands like scorpion claws, aiming for the scarred man's neck.

The scarred man was startled; what kind of movement technique was this? It was so strange. But he didn't have time to think further; it was too late to dodge. He swung his two steel knives at Chen Shi.

Chen Shi was not yet able to condense his blood and qi into a complete scorpion claw, so he couldn't actually cut the scarred man's neck. But if he were stabbed twice by the man, he would probably lose his life.

With no other option, he could only use his internal energy to pull himself back and temporarily avoid the attack.

"snort."

The scarred man sneered smugly, turned around, brandished his twin knives, and charged forward again.

Chen Shi remained calm and unleashed his double-kill attack with the Claw Scorpion.

They exchanged blows, going back and forth for over ten rounds, but Chen Shi was at a disadvantage.

Condensed Form Martial Arts surpasses Explosive Qi Martial Arts because it excels in the application of blood and qi, but this does not mean that the moves are more refined.

Chen Shi had only practiced the Claw and Scorpion Double Kill for a little over a month, and was not yet very proficient. Furthermore, he could not use the scorpion's moves and could only use the claw's moves.

Most importantly, he can only condense his blood and qi into small areas such as the back of his hand and forearm, and he is unable to fully exert the power of his condensed martial arts.

Martial arts are like programs, corresponding to the use of blood and qi. As a form-forming martial art, the Double Kill of the Claws and Scorpions can only achieve the most basic blood and qi explosion when it is used to unleash qi, and cannot condense invisible wolf claws, blades, or the like.

Therefore, it is not as good as the scarred man's twin swords that explode two feet long with his anger.

boom!

With a muffled thud and a cloud of dust, the scarred man slammed his knife into the wall. The powerful surge of blood energy nearly caused the dilapidated temple to collapse.

"Kid, are you a rat? All you can do is run away?"

Looking at Chen Shi, who had retreated several meters away again, the scarred man smiled, a smug look on his face.

Chen Shi didn't speak, but reached out and drew a foot-long knife.

Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to hone his double-kill technique, but now it seems that his rudimentary martial arts skills are not enough to defeat this vicious scarred man.

The next moment, his blood energy surged two feet high, and he swung his sword directly at the enemy.

"You think I'm afraid of you!"

Knowing that Chen Shi was using his signature martial arts technique, the scarred man became secretly wary and then shouted as he charged forward.

What good is it if it's just a martial art that explodes with energy?

With the same burst of energy, two feet long, and two knives, why would he be afraid of someone with only one knife?

Boom!

The blood and energy clashed violently, the air currents surged, and with a deafening roar, the dilapidated temple could no longer hold on and collapsed completely.

Amidst the shattered tiles and rubble, Chen Shi's eyes blazed, and his foot-long sword, spitting blood, slashed at the scarred man once more.

The scarred man's eyes widened, and he quickly raised his two swords to defend himself.

Bang!

With another muffled thud, the scarred man was sent flying by the slash.

"puff!"

The scarred man, bracing himself with his two swords, barely managed to stand. He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood and looked up at Chen Shi with a face full of horror.

How could such power be so terrifying!

Both can explode two feet high, but their power levels are completely different.

The moves were unremarkable, but each strike was extremely heavy, like a mountain pressing down on you.

After blocking only a few moves, the scarred man suffered internal injuries that ripped through his internal organs.

"Brother! Listen to my advice, joining the Fufeng Society will bring you no benefit. Let me go, and I'll give you money!"

Seeing that Chen Shi was about to rush up again, the scarred man quickly shouted loudly.

Unfortunately, Chen Shi did not pause at all.

He has no shortage of money, and he must join the Fufeng Society again.

"Damn it! You really think I'm someone to mess with?!"

Seeing Chen Shi rushing over, the scarred man cursed angrily and suddenly thrust his twin knives into the ground.

He pounded his fist into his heart, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot.

"roar!"

With a roar, the scarred man's body under the moonlight underwent a rapid transformation.

The bones stretched, the muscles bulged, the hands turned into claws, the fangs bared, and even the body hair turned into hard, blackish-gray hair like steel needles.

"This is……"

Chen Shi stared wide-eyed at the 'transformed' scarred man.

What kind of tactic is this!

Is it blood and qi condensing into form? No, this is definitely not blood and qi condensing into form.

"I'll kill you!"

After transforming, the scarred man's eyes turned bloodshot, his gaze becoming increasingly crazed. With a low growl, he lunged directly at Chen Shi.
