Chapter 10

[The simulation is over. You can choose one of the following.]

[1: Obtain Trait (Not Selectable)]

[2: Obtained attribute points]

[3: Obtain any part of the life experience.]

[Current Balance: 0]

“I can’t choose a Trait anymore?” Han Zhao looked at the gray [Option 1] and was stunned.

As expected, the probability of one percent was still too low.

Originally, he was prepared to burn incense again! In any case, he owed Han Lin a thousand years, so it didn’t matter if he owed him another thousand years.

“Two.”

[Attribute Point +2]

“Hm? One more attribute point?!”

This system was actually quite particular. The price had increased, and the quality of the service had also increased.

There was no Trait, but his attribute points had increased.

Was it really a capitalist game?

Martial Arts: Mountain Splitting Saber Technique (First Level Small Mastery 77%, Upgradeable; Special Effect: Explosive Level 1), Life Nurturing Technique (First Level Small Mastery 56%, Upgradeable; Special Effect: Body Strengthening Level 1)

Looking at the two attribute points and martial arts progress on the system interface, Han Zhao fell into deep thought.

With the addition of the Mountain Splitting Saber Technique, it was very likely that he would directly break through to the second level and advance to the Bone Tempering Realm.

However, he had only learned the Mountain Splitting Saber Technique for nine months.

Li Fei’s aptitude was not bad, and he came from the Li family, a large family in the inner city. He had also studied for two years before breaking through at the age of 18.

Zhang Tianwen, Su Yun, and Xu Ling had all broken through in about two years.

If he advanced in nine months, without the support of a large number of resources, this cultivation speed was too suspicious.

In particular, Lu Yi would periodically check their cultivation progress. With the strength of a Force Tempering Martial Master, he could roughly tell how good his Mountain Splitting Saber Technique was with just a touch of his arm.

No!

“I might not even be able to advance to the second level if I split the points.”

After thinking for a moment, Han Zhao decided to add all 2 attribute points to the Life Nurturing Technique.

In any case, true qi was helpful for cultivating cultivation methods outside. It was the same for the Life Nurturing Technique to break through earlier.

Moreover, the instantaneous explosive power of true qi was even more ferocious.

Thinking of this, Han Zhao muttered, “Upgrade the Life Nurturing Technique.”

When his attribute points returned to zero, he felt his entire body begin to heat up. Endless power surged from his body.

After a long time, the long-lasting heat slowly disappeared.

Martial Arts: Life Nurturing Technique (Second Level Entry Level 2%. Upgradeable; Special Effect: Body Strengthening Level 2)

“On the surface, I’m a Skin Tempering Realm martial artist, but my true strength is at the Bone Tempering Realm.”

Han Zhao thought to himself that there would be corresponding changes to the body when practicing external cultivation, but there were no such changes for internal cultivation.

For example, for martial artists who practiced the Mountain Shaking Fist, every time they broke through a level, their fists would become hard and change color. The first three levels were divided into gray jade, white jade, and black jade.

When his fist turned greenish-black, he would be close to grasping Internal Force and becoming a Force Tempering Martial Master.

Han Zhao practiced the Mountain Splitting Saber Technique mainly to train his arms. At the Skin Tempering Realm, his arms would only heat up. He heard from Lu Yi that when he reached the Bone Tempering stage, his arms would turn red in battle.

“Martial Masters who can open a martial arts school in Blackrock City are all very famous. The famous martial arts techniques of every Martial Master are not a secret…”

Han Zhao suddenly thought of a battle method that was suitable for him.

“If I deliberately expose my arm in a life and death battle for others to see, wouldn’t I be able to suddenly erupt with true qi at the critical moment to trick others? Then, I can win with a single strike!”

…

A month later.

Outside Blackrock City.

There was a relatively hidden cave at the foot of Black Wind Mountain.

A young man in white walked out of the cave. He was tall and straight, with a long saber at his waist and a fox mask.

“I didn’t expect the Saber Hunters’ stronghold in Blackrock City to be outside the city.”

The young man held a black token in his left hand. On the front was the word “Hunter”, and on the back was the name “Song Que.”

He was holding a wanted poster in his right hand. It had the head of a wanted criminal drawn on it.

The letter said, “Flower Picking Bee, Kuai Wei, is at the Skin Tempering Realm. He is good at movement technique and is wanted for 10 taels of silver.”

Han Zhao looked at Kuai Wei’s portrait and the corners of her mouth curled up under the mask.

As his Life Nurturing Technique broke through to the Second Level, his appetite increased again. He had finished all the cured meat and dried radishes at home.

For those who were similarly at the Skin Tempering Realm, martial artists who practiced weapons naturally had the advantage, so Han Zhao agreed to a few small gangs’ recruitments.

These small gangs didn’t have much money, but they were quite well-informed.

He learned from a small gang that the Saber Hunter was a helper of the government. As long as they could catch the criminal, the government had no other requirements.

Missions and identities were not restrictive. There were many people like Han Zhao who didn’t show their faces and used fake names.

With his current strength, the danger of doing this job was very low.

Furthermore, without actual combat and bloodshed, his combat strength would definitely be reduced. Therefore, Han Zhao became a Saber Hunter.

He could earn some extra money to supplement his expenses.

“To celebrate my becoming a Saber Hunter, I’ll use you as a saber sacrifice, Kuai Wei.”

Han Zhao folded the wanted order in his hand.

For the first order, he would find a soft persimmon to bully.

…

Half a month later.

North of Black Wind Mountain, in a forest halfway up the mountain.

A thin young man with long arms and legs kept moving through the forest. He used his hands and feet like an agile ape, jumping between the trees.

However, his right leg seemed to be injured. As he ran, blood dripped from time to time on the treetops.

It was as if something was chasing him from behind, causing him to not have the time to stop and treat his wound.

“Hidden weapon!”

Swoosh!

The sharp sound of something breaking through the air rang in Kuai Wei’s ears. He jumped forward and suddenly turned sideways. A thumb-sized stone flew past his scalp.

“F*ck!”

Kuai Wei lost his footing and fell from the treetop.

Immediately, he controlled his body and pounced on the grass in front of him. He rolled on the ground and stabilized his body. Then, he leaned against a big tree and stared at the bushes behind him.

Han Zhao, who was dressed in black and wearing a fox mask, walked out of the bushes.

He had been searching for Kuai Wei for half a month and had yet to find any traces of him. He was already prepared to give up.

That was until the other party took the risk and entered the Xinqiao District outside Black Stone City to pick flowers. Unexpectedly, there were two Skin Tempering martial artists in the other party’s family. In the end, his right leg was injured by a sneak attack.

The commotion attracted Han Zhao’s attention.

However, Kuai Wei seemed to know something like Bone Shrinking Technique and directly crawled out of the dog hole.

With the other party’s injured right leg, Han Zhao chased for more than ten minutes before barely catching up.

“Brother, let me go. I’ll give you all the money I have. How about that?” Kuai Wei looked a little flustered and was panting.

“Your leg skills are really impressive. You can still run so quickly even though you’re injured.”

Han Zhao held the hilt of his saber and slowly approached the other party. He was not in a hurry to attack.

“How about this, how about I give you my ‘Flying Swallow’ leg technique? This technique can be cultivated to the Bone Tempering Realm. It’s very strong! Even if you sell it, it’ll be worth at least dozens of taels. It’s much more valuable than my head!” Kuai Wei’s forehead was covered in sweat, and his face was filled with fear. His right leg kept trembling as if it was in so much pain that he couldn’t take it anymore. His voice was filled with pleading.

As he spoke, his hands trembled as he fumbled in his arms, as if he was about to take out the secret manual.

“Clang~” Han Zhao slowly pulled out his long saber.

“Go to hell!” Seeing Han Zhao take a few more steps forward, the fear on Kuai Wei’s face completely disappeared. He revealed a mocking smile and suddenly threw a large handful of lime powder at Han Zhao.

The moment he threw the lime powder, Han Zhao retreated as if he had predicted it.

Seeing this, Kuai Wei threw out two more handfuls of lime powder.

“Ah! My eyes!” Han Zhao’s painful cry came from the lime dust.

Kuai Wei grabbed another two handfuls of lime powder from his arms and turned around to run.

“Stop right there!” Han Zhao shouted angrily.

Swoosh!

A sharp air-piercing sound came from behind the lime powder.

Kuai Wei dodged to the side, and the wooden scabbard shot past.

“A scabbard?!”

Swoosh!

Another sound.

This time, a long saber flew out.

“Pfft!”

The blade stabbed into the tree beside him. The tip of the blade went four inches into the tree trunk. The blade trembled, and the bright silver blade let out a clear sound.

“Idiot!” Kuai Wei sneered. He knew that this kid was anxious. He actually threw out the scabbard and saber to stop him from escaping. It was obvious that he was a newbie.

Kuai Wei didn’t want to run from the start. Since he dared to chase after him, he had to pay the price.

It wasn’t easy for him to break through to the Bone Tempering Realm this time. He was just about to go to the outer city to find a few pretty girls, but he didn’t expect to be so unlucky. He was ambushed by two Skin Tempering martial artists and severely injured his most important leg.

After that, he was chased by this Skin Tempering Realm Saber Hunter for nearly an hour. He had to vent his anger.

“Go to hell and regret it!” Kuai Wei suddenly kicked the tree trunk behind him and jumped into the air. He threw the two handfuls of lime powder in his hand at Han Zhao. At the same time, he kicked his left heel with his right foot, and a two-inch-long dagger instantly popped out from the gap between the toes of his left foot.

Kuai Wei’s blood qi surged as he kicked Han Zhao’s head with the tip of his foot. With his full-power attack at the Bone Tempering Realm, even if this kid reacted, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

At this moment, a three-foot-square piece of linen flew out of the dust.

Crackle!

Kuai Wei’s leg pierced through the linen cloth and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right thigh, followed by his lower abdomen.

“Ah!”

He screamed as his body fell to the ground.

“Pfft!”

The sharp weapon pierced through his back and out of his chest, revealing a small part of the tip of the blade.

Immediately after, a strong force came from behind him. He was kicked to the ground by Han Zhao.
