High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

"These martial arts manuals are all complete, but the Xuanwu True Skill is missing quite a bit." Old Wang's face was full of regret.

The Xuanwu True Skill is divided into ten powerful martial arts, Xuanwu internal energy, and a set of movement techniques and lightness skills.

These martial arts techniques are not actually that profound; they are not much stronger than ordinary peerless martial arts.

However, if one can integrate the ten martial arts into one's heart, one can comprehend the ultimate moves: Invincible in all directions and Annihilation in all directions.

Above these two ultimate moves are two profound mysteries: the Ten Paths of Extreme Power and the Heavenless Sword Tiger Technique, whose destructive power is comparable to that of divine and demonic martial arts.

However, the Heavenless Sword Tiger Technique and the Ten Extreme Paths can only be activated with the Heavenly Dao Battle Box.

The Heavenly Dao Battle Box has long since disappeared, so it can only be rated as a supreme martial art.

However, even the Heavenless Sword Tiger Technique and the Ten Extreme Paths are not necessarily the upper limit of the Xuanwu True Skill, because theoretically, it has infinite possibilities.

Chen Fan listened but didn't take it seriously.

He thought it was something else entirely.

He would be content even if only one of these four supreme martial arts was complete.

Time is of the essence, and he has plenty of experience. As long as he obtains the complete martial arts manual, he can immediately enhance his combat power.

Not to mention, the three martial arts techniques, namely 【Three-Part Return to Origin Qi】, 【Free and Easy Wandering】, and 【Sacred Heart Technique】, are complete.

"Mr. Wang, I don't know how I can ever repay your kindness."

He expressed his gratitude.

Upon arriving in Anshan City, the other party gifted him a complete supreme martial arts technique.

Immediately afterwards, he was assigned to oversee Anshan City and deal with the ferocious beasts that appeared within the city.

Then, I brought him to the secret realm, drew his fire, and helped him control several flying centipedes.

Now, in one go, he gifted him four supreme martial arts techniques.

How many people can do this kind of favor?

"Between the two of us, is there any need for such formalities?"

Old Wang laughed heartily and said, "These martial arts techniques are useless to me. It's better to give them to someone with talent so that they can be put to good use. Besides, even though there are four martial arts techniques, you can only really practice two of them."

"This Three-Part Returning Origin Qi is similar to the Undying Golden Body you cultivate. Moreover, if you cultivate the Three-Part Returning Origin Qi to a certain level, it will also benefit your cultivation of the Ten Strong Martial Arts."

Chen Fan accepted the [Three-Part Return to Origin Qi] that he was given.

"As for the Free and Easy Wandering Technique, it is the supreme mental cultivation method of the Taoist sect. After mastering it, it can greatly reduce the backlash of martial arts. When it is perfected, it can completely isolate the backlash. I heard from Shi Tao that you have also cultivated the Star Absorbing Technique. This technique is perfect for you."

In fact, it's not just the Star Absorbing Technique that can cause backlash to its practitioners; the Xuanwu True Skill can too.

The Ten Directions Invincible Technique consists of three moves: an offensive move, a defensive move, and a killing move.

The first two moves are alright, but the killing move, "Kill in All Directions," will multiply the user into ten. Each figure will use one of the ten strongest martial arts techniques, ultimately increasing the power tenfold.

However, this deadly move should not be used lightly.

Firstly, using this move requires profound skill. If one's internal strength is insufficient and one tries to force it, not only will one fail to harm the opponent, but one will also suffer serious injuries.

Secondly, when the user activates this move, they will also bring bad consequences upon themselves. As the name suggests, "All Directions Kill" contains extremely strong killing intent. Killing people will activate the killing intent in the move, which will backfire on the user. With each person killed, the killing intent will deepen. Over time, it will eventually make the user unable to extricate themselves and become a heartless killing maniac.

Ordinary mental techniques can only slow down the backlash of killing intent, and their effectiveness will decrease with each use until they become ineffective.

The Free and Easy Wanderer can completely isolate a person from the influence of murderous intent.

The essence of the "Free and Easy Wandering" mental cultivation method lies in being unattached to worldly things, becoming one with nature, and freely roaming the world without any constraints.

"Thank you, Elder Wang. Actually..." Chen Fan took the [Free and Easy Wandering] and wanted to explain something.

Old Wang smiled and waved his hand, saying, "You don't need to say anything. I know you're not someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately. Even if the Star Absorbing Technique were in your hands, you wouldn't abuse it."

After all, if Chen Fan were that kind of person, he wouldn't have stayed in Anshan City.

Chen Fan nodded.

"I used this Sacred Heart Technique to test you when I first arrived in Anshan City. Now, it's time to hand it over to you. However, if you want to cultivate it to the perfect state and unleash its maximum effect, you must consume Phoenix Blood. In the future, you can keep an eye out for demonic beasts with Phoenix Blood in their bodies."

"As for this last one, the Xuanwu True Skill."

Old Wang smiled wryly: "It all depends on your own fate."

"Thank you, Mr. Wang."

Chen Fan accepted the four martial arts manuals and bowed.

Of these four martial arts techniques, at least two can be immediately converted into his combat power.

In theory, the Sacred Heart Technique can be cultivated to its perfect state even without Phoenix Blood.

Mastering the Xuanwu True Skill does indeed require some time.

"Old Wang, it's getting late. I should head back to Anshan City. Tonight, Anshan City will probably not be peaceful."

"Oh?"

The smile faded from Old Wang's face. "You mean, the beast tide will come again tonight?"

"Um."

Chen Fan nodded. "This time, the scale far exceeds the last time, and the quantity exceeds one million."

"million……"

Old Wang's expression changed slightly.

He had actually anticipated this situation.

After all, Anshan City is located too far outlying, making it a thorn in the side of the beast tide, and they can't just ignore it.

It's a miracle that Ansan Castle has managed to hold on until today.

"In that case, let's go back."

"Um."

Chen Fan nodded.

There were still more than two hours until midnight, which was just enough time for him to meditate and recover his true energy, as well as learn the martial arts techniques he had just acquired.

As for Old Wang, it would be better if he went back with them. He wasn't too comfortable leaving them here, since he was going to take those flying centipedes with him later. Leaving them behind would probably be useless.

After all, the other demonic beasts are not to be trifled with. If these flying centipedes are not injured, they will be fine, but if they are injured, they will definitely be no match for them.

Anyway, he has already obtained all the mature medicinal herbs. He can go to those other places after he has dealt with the situation in Anshan City.

We've reached the exit.

Old Wang looked at the seven or eight flying centipedes following behind the two men, a look of surprise on his face.

"Chen Fan, you wouldn't, would you?"

Chen Fan smiled and nodded.

Old Wang took a deep breath and scanned the monsters one by one.

It has to be said that if these few demonic beasts were to help guard the city, the pressure of defending the city would be greatly reduced.

Having received Chen Fan's order, the flying centipedes froze, staring at the exit, too afraid to move.

"Didn't you want to eat something?"

Chen Fan looked at the leading flying centipede and said, "After we get out, I'll let you eat your fill."

"Is it okay if we don't go out?"

The leading flying centipede looked rather pitiful.

It has grown so big, yet it has never left this secret realm.

"You don't want to eat anything?"

"I want to! But I don't want to go out." The flying centipede nodded first, then shook its head.

Chen Fan was so angry he laughed.

This guy is ugly, but he has some pretty fancy ideas.

Not only do I have to kill the ferocious beasts, but after I'm done, I also have to bring their corpses in.

"I'll count to three. If you don't leave after I'm done, I'll beat you up." A cold glint flashed in Chen Fan's eyes.

"three."

"two."

Seeing this, the leading flying centipede gritted its teeth and charged out.

"!!!"

The flying centipedes behind them were immediately stunned, their emotions turning into worry.

"Come in."

Chen Fan's mind raced.

The next second, the flying centipede that had gone out crawled back in, its eyes filled with surprise.

"!!!"

The flying centipedes that followed were stunned once again.

However, unlike last time, they are now somewhat eager to try.

"Let's go."

Chen Fan urged.

Several flying centipedes emerged from the secret realm one after another, soaring into the air and gazing at the land.

Is this what the outside world is like?

It seems it's not as dangerous as I imagined?

It looks very quiet.

The lead flying centipede flew up to Chen Fan, its meaning clear: Where's the promised food? Didn't it appear after I told it to? Why can't I see it?

"What's the rush?"

Chen Fan glanced at it calmly and said, "I'll let you eat until you're stuffed, but there's one condition: you're not allowed to hurt anyone."

Several flying centipedes nodded repeatedly.

"Old Wang, let's go back." Chen Fan then looked at Old Wang.

"it is good."

Old Wang smiled, feeling more confident about the future of Anshan City.

As they were about to arrive at Anshan City, Chen Fan sent the flying centipedes underground to enter the city together.

The task of guarding the underground world is entrusted to them.

With their abilities, even if a beast king-level burrowing type ferocious beast appeared, it might not be able to cause much damage to the city.

If they are fully recovered, they will be able to slaughter even the most powerful burrowing beasts.

The key point is, they can fly!

We won't be afraid if flying ferocious beasts appear in the future.

Chen Fan was very satisfied with his plan to subdue these demonic beasts.

After saying goodbye to Elder Wang, Chen Fan first went to the Awakeners Association.

"President!"

"President!"

Hua Jun and the others, who had been waiting for a long time, all stood up.

A couple of hours ago, Hua Jun sent him a text message informing him that something was wrong with Anshan City tonight; many of the ferocious beasts that usually roamed the area seemed to have vanished into thin air.

Chen Fan glanced at it and then told him to gather everyone in advance and wait for his return.

"Chairman Li."

Qin Jin and the others also stood up, their faces showing ingratiating smiles.

"Please sit down."

Chen Fan gestured for everyone not to stand on ceremony, then glanced around and said, "Your discovery is correct. In two or three hours, the beast tide will erupt again."

"!!!"

Everyone was taken aback.

Based on past events, they vaguely guessed that Chen Fan possessed the ability to foresee the future.

But deep down, I still held onto a sliver of hope: what if tonight really would be a peaceful night?

However, Chen Fan's answer was the worst possible outcome.

"Yes, President," Hua Jun's face paled, his voice trembling slightly, "how does this beast tide compare to the last one?"

"It should be more than last time, right?"

Someone nearby shrank back.

Everyone present knew that the cities in the vicinity had been mostly destroyed by the ferocious beasts, with only Anshan City still standing.

In other words, the ferocious beasts that were originally attacking other cities will now gather together and target Anshan City.

"Preliminary estimates put the number in the millions."

"Hundreds, millions..."

The room fell silent immediately.

Everyone was filled with fear.

Even Qin Jin and others began to back down.

If the number is around 100,000, they can help guard it.

At the million-level, there might even be beast king-level ferocious beasts appearing.

They are only B-level Awakened Ones; one wrong move and they could lose their lives here.

As for Hua Jun and the others, there's even less to say.

There are millions of ferocious beasts, and the number of burrowing beasts must be over 100,000, right?

Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of beasts outside, which our guild leader couldn't possibly withstand, even if he could, the people inside the city would probably all be dead.

They are not afraid of death.

But they couldn't bear to watch their loved ones also die tragically in the jaws of the ferocious beast.

"The reason I'm telling you this news is so you won't worry."

Chen Fan smiled slightly.

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked up.

"President, what do you mean?" A glimmer of hope rekindled in the eyes of Hua Jun and the others.

Because they knew that at this moment, only their own president could turn the tide.

"I will handle the ferocious beasts outside the city. I have already prepared for the beasts inside the city, so they won't cause any significant impact. What you need to do is maintain order in the city when the beast tide breaks out and prevent panic from spreading."

"Yes, Chairman, we understand!"

Hua Jun and the others nodded, feeling relieved.

As expected of the president, he had already made arrangements.

Qin Jin and his companions exchanged bewildered glances.

I'm a little skeptical.

This is a beast tide of millions, and it happened in the most troublesome early morning hours.

Even if this Chairman Li is strong, he's only an A-level Awakener, right? Even if he's proficient in martial arts, so what? Can he stop a million ferocious beasts?

The next second, the group of people shuddered, because they felt Chen Fan's gaze fall on them.

"Gentlemen, your mission is complete. Tonight will likely be unsettling. If you wish to leave, you may do so now."

With that, Chen Fan took out his phone, entered the Awakened Ones Association, and confirmed that the mission was complete.

Instantly, Qin Jin and the others' phones vibrated. When they opened them, they were greeted with notifications that the mission was complete and the points had been credited to their accounts.

The group was momentarily at a loss, glancing at Chen Fan and then at Qin Jin.

They were worried that retreating at this time might offend Chairman Li, and that their mission might be impossible to complete.

As a result, the other party clicked "confirm" directly and told them they could leave right now.

This is much better than they imagined.

Qin Jin was also stunned.

Chairman Li doesn't seem to be joking.
