"The Ten Thousand Armies Step, when cultivated to an advanced level, allows one to take the head of the enemy general amidst thousands of troops."

"Such arrogant words!"

Lin Zheyu flipped through it and found these words written on the first page.

He had personally experienced military formations, and not to mention thousands, even in formations of a hundred elite soldiers, Lin Zheyu could only flee.

Lin Zheyu did not continue reading.

He put away the manual, the gloves, and seven jade bottles before quickly leaving.

The people from the Nine Nether Sect are rather sinister; he was worried that if he delayed, they would catch up to him again.

By the time he returned to Songyi City, the sky had already dimmed somewhat.

Upon reaching the courtyard, Lin Zheyu couldn't wait to inspect today's haul.

The first thing he took out was the black-silver gloves. The gloves were finely crafted, cool and soft to the touch, but unfortunately not suitable for him.

The man's hands were bigger, and they felt a bit loose on Lin Zheyu.

Otherwise, wearing these gloves while using the Wild Bull Fist against an enemy should be quite effective.

"I don't know what these gloves are made of, but being able to block blades and swords definitely makes them a treasure. Selling them could fetch a lot of silver taels,"

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

Not only could the gloves be sold, but the cultivation technique could also be sold.

The techniques taught by Liang Song's Master couldn't be sold, but the ones taken from the black-red-robed man had no such issue.

Lin Zheyu took out the manual, a handwritten copy. The technique described was probably the body technique the man had used before.

"It's actually a technique that can directly be cultivated to the Qi Blood Realm!"

Lin Zheyu was somewhat surprised.

A technique that can be cultivated to the Qi Blood Realm is far more valuable than an ordinary one.

He carefully perused it, and a hint of delight gradually appeared on his face.

The Ten Thousand Armies Step is a powerful leg skill, consisting of five levels; when cultivated to its peak, it can reach the level of Qi Blood Three Transformations.

It's said that when cultivated to an advanced level, one can take the enemy general's head amidst thousands of troops as easily as taking something out of a bag.

That's an exaggerated statement.

But if there's no military formation involved, it does seem possible.

In terms of agility in body technique, the Ten Thousand Armies Step surpasses the Golden Swan Skill by a large margin.

The Golden Swan Skill is a balanced technique, integrating attack, speed, and agility.

In contrast, the Ten Thousand Armies Step focuses entirely on agility, with no offensive moves, mainly enhancing short-range evasion and maneuvering in close quarters.

If cultivated to an advanced level, one can move like an eel, freely shuttling amongst thousands of troops.

In a confrontation between armies, if one's strength is sufficient, it's entirely possible to take the enemy general's head as easily as taking something out of a bag.

"This cultivation technique should sell for a few hundred taels of silver,"

Lin Zheyu said to himself, feeling quite pleased.

Placing the manual aside, he began to identify the few jade bottles.

He had found a total of seven jade bottles on the black-red-robed man.

"This one seems to be poison, this one too, this is an antidote..."

Lin Zheyu roughly distinguished the contents of the bottles by their smell.

He had studied the Poison Canon for a while, giving him a rough understanding of various herbs, allowing him to simply identify the purposes of unknown substances.

"Two bottles of poison, one bottle with Blood Elixir, these three should be antidotes, and this one, what is it?"

"Is this an elixir for cultivation?"

Lin Zheyu held the last bottle, which contained four elixirs.

The medicinal aroma was extremely strong; just a light sniff made him feel rejuvenated, as if it were some sort of valuable tonic.

"I'll keep them for now; they might be useful in the future, even if not, they could be sold for a good price," Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

Though the man had no silver taels on him, the items he carried were of high value.

The bottle containing the Blood Elixirs had three, adding the one previously acquired made four in total.

Selling each Blood Elixir for a hundred to two hundred taels should not be an issue, along with the cultivation technique and gloves.

Lin Zheyu practically struck it rich with this haul!

"Now, even if I cultivate to the seventh level of the Golden Swan Skill, I won't have to worry about a lack of funds," Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

There are still six days until the black market opens.

Lin Zheyu refrained from leaving the city again.

He wasn't sure how the black-red-robed man had tracked him down previously, and the Nine Nether Sect likely had tracking methods unknown to him.

If he were to go out again, they might chase after him.

Before enhancing his strength to Qi Blood Three Transformations, capable of facing the priest without fear, Lin Zheyu decided not to leave the city alone again.

He spent most of his time at home, cultivating the Ten Thousand Armies Step and the Six Harmonies Blade.

The Ten Thousand Armies Step, being a technique focused entirely on agility, complemented the Golden Swan Skill exceptionally well.

Two days later.

The Xu Mansion.

Swoosh!

Xu Qin Yi suddenly surged forward, sweeping his leg toward Lin Zheyu's waist.

Lin Zheyu blocked with his left hand in a fist, stepped forward with his right foot, and landed a straight punch to Xu Qin Yi's chest with his right hand.

Bang!

A dull sound echoed, and Xu Qin Yi couldn't maintain his stance, taking several steps back.

"Mr. Lin, your strength is impressive; I admire you!"

Xu Qin Yi said with a bow, a hint of a wry smile on his face.

Among the young generation of the Xu family, he is considered the most gifted, a prodigy of the Xu Family.

At only sixteen, he had already cultivated to the Mid-Stage of Organ Refining and had a promising future of breaking through to the Qi Blood Three Transformations or even Four Transformations.

The elders of the Xu Family have placed high hopes on him.

Yet, facing Lin Zheyu, who has trained in martial arts for less than half a year and only reached the Peak of Bone Forging, he lost.

And this was without Lin Zheyu using 'force'.

"I'm skilled in leg techniques, leveraging agility," Lin Zheyu said with a smile.
