Corpse King, Red-Clad Female Ghost
"I wonder what methods this kid uses to deal with Ghost Monsters."
Yan Yue-Ren stared at Qin Ming walking ahead, muttering to himself,
Those who dare to come here all have methods to deal with Ghost Monsters; Yan Yue-Ren's reliance is a short sword.
This short sword is not Sha Weapon, but a Buddha Treasure. It has been blessed by incense offerings in a temple for many years, and the power of those incense offerings can slay some low-level Ghost Monsters.
The Buddha Treasure was obtained by Yu Qing for Yan Yue-Ren. His purpose was the same as Xiong San's: to get Yan Yue-Ren into the Demon-Hunting Team, and then to support Yan Yue-Ren to become the captain of the Demon-Hunting Team. In the name of the Demon-Hunting Team, he would ask for high-quality resources from above and use his power to gain more benefits.
As the Ghost Fog drew closer, the others also took out their weapons to fight the Ghost Monster.
There are Sha Weapon, Buddha Treasures, and even Cinnabar Sword that has been specially refined.
Some people even brought firecrackers filled with gunpowder mixed with black dog blood and rooster blood.
As they approached the Ghost Fog, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and gusts of eerie wind howled past them.
All twelve were Martial Artists with abundant Qi and Blood, yet they felt a chill run through their bodies, as if their blood was about to freeze. They had a creepy feeling, as if something in the Ghost Fog was watching them.
Some people felt a sudden tightness in their chests, regretting joining this so-called Demon-Hunting Team.
If the weapons in your hands are useless against Ghost Monsters, aren't you doomed?
Just then, a piercing ghostly scream suddenly came from the Ghost Fog, and a ghostly figure flashed past from the Ghost Fog.
"Chase!"
Someone leaped into the air and quickly gave chase.
They had done their research before coming and knew that these were just the lowest-level Wraith, which could be easily killed with the right methods.
Yan Yue-Ren was the fastest, and he quickly gave chase, wielding Buddha Treasure short sword.
The others followed closely behind, and the twelve figures disappeared into the Ghost Fog.
Seeing this from afar, Yu Qing's smile deepened.
"Xiong San, aren't you going to fall into my hands this time?"
Yu Qing wasn't worried at all about whether Yan Yue-Ren could kill Qin Ming.
Because Yan Yue-Ren wasn't the only one who wanted to kill Qin Ming.
The Qingshan Town, shrouded in thick fog, was devoid of any sign of life.
The group chased the ghostly figure all the way to the center of the town, the location of the Twin Martial Arts Academies Tournament. The surrounding area was littered with the corpses of bandits who had been drained of their blood.
"It's gone!"
The group stopped in their tracks.
The ghostly figure disappeared when it reached this point.
Qin Ming looked around. The Ghost Fog around him was getting thicker and thicker, and he could only see about two zhang away at most.
"Look!"
Just then, someone let out a scream.
The bandit's corpse on the ground suddenly stood up unsteadily.
"Depend on!"
The person closest to him cursed and threw a punch, his Flesh Refining Realm Qi and Blood erupting violently.
With a loud thud, the Dry Corpse was sent flying several meters away by a punch, but after Dry Corpse a few times, it stood up as if nothing had happened, while the person who threw the punch was grimacing in pain.
"This thing is so hard, everyone be careful!"
As they spoke, the surrounding corpses began to stand up one after another.
From the corner of the street, the corpses of the long-deceased residents of Qingshan Town also began to emerge.
"Wasn't it said that only Wraith existed in the Ghost Fog? What's with these Dry Corpse?"
Everyone was shocked.
Yan Yue-Ren struck the mummified Dry Corpse with Dry Corpse Buddhist artifact, severing one of its arms. The wound was corroded by the power of incense, emitting a hissing sound and wisps of white smoke.
But this injury had no effect on the Dry Corpse, which quickly stood up again until Yan Yue-Ren, in a fit of rage, chopped off Dry Corpse head with a single stroke, at which point the Dry Corpse swayed and collapsed.
Yan Yue-Ren looked down and saw that there were several nicks on the short knife, and he felt a pang of heartache.
"Damn it! These Dry Corpse are so tough!"
The Buddhist-style short knife in his hand was made of ordinary refined iron. These Dry Corpses had bodies as hard as iron and stone. If he slashed them a few more times, the knife might be ruined. If he encountered Ghost Monsters, he would only face certain death.
Thinking of this, Yan Yue-Ren had no choice but to temporarily put away his short sword and replace it with the iron knife he always carried.
As they spoke, the Dry Corpse surged toward the crowd like a tidal wave.
Enveloped in the Ghost Fog, the group couldn't make out how many desiccated Dry Corpses there were; they seemed to be everywhere, endless.
"Laugh!"
Qin Ming killed the Dry Corpse in front of him with a single strike.
[Add 10 Free Attribute Points]
"Only 10?"
Qin Ming was a little annoyed. Killing a Wraith would add 100 Free Attribute Points, but looking at the densely packed Dry Corpse on the street, his annoyance vanished instantly.
Even if each of these mummified Dry Corpses only has 10 points, the total amount is still considerable.
"Kill!"
Qin Ming charged into the horde of Dry Corpse, wielding Butcher's Knife.
These Dry Corpse' bodies seemed to have been strengthened by some strange force, making them extremely hard. However, Qin Ming quickly discovered their weaknesses using the Cook Ding Dissects the Ox's Skill, and with a single stroke, several Dry Corpse' heads rolled off.
[Add 50 Free Attribute Points]
"Happy!!"
Qin Ming laughed inwardly. This wasn't some Dry Corpse demon; it was practically his experience bank!
"Kill! Kill!"
Qin Ming went on a killing spree, his Free Attribute Points increasing like crazy.
Add 10... Add 10... Add 10...
In the blink of an eye, Qin Ming had killed nearly a hundred Dry Corpse.
[990 Free Attribute Points]
Qin Ming looked at the Savage Bull Strength.
[Ninth-Rank Martial Art: Savage Bull Strength (420/1000) Greater Mastery]
"Give me some more!!"
"Boom!"
Qin Ming felt a jolt throughout his body, as if he had been struck on the head by an invisible force.
[Ninth-Rank Martial Art: Savage Bull Strength (1000/1000) Perfect Mastery]
The moment the Savage Bull Strength Perfect Mastery, Qin Ming's entire body resonated with Qi and Blood and qi gushed from his meridians, flowing throughout his body. He clearly felt his strength increase significantly!
That's not all. After Perfect Mastery the Savage Bull Strength, Qin Ming's muscles and bones could freely stretch and contract, and he could shrink back to his original size at any time if he wanted.
With a thought, Qin Ming's original three-meter-tall frame rapidly shrank, transforming from a muscular giant back to his original appearance, even with whiter skin and a thinner build.
At this point, he still had approximately six hundred Free Attribute Points.
It's more than enough to advance a Minor Mastery martial art to the Greater Mastery level.
"Add more points!"
Without hesitation, Qin Ming used his Free Attribute Points to add to the "Wandering Dragon Step" skill.
The "Wandering Dragon Steps " technique, which he had only recently mastered, quickly broke through to the Minor Mastery and was only one step away from Greater Mastery.
Qin Ming went berserk, killing more than a dozen more Dry Corpses and accumulating over a hundred Free Attribute Points, finally pushing the Wandering Dragon Step to its Greater Mastery.
"The Wandering Dragon Step" is the only martial art technique Qin Ming possesses, and also the only one he has ever seen.
This martial art already falls into the category of special martial arts. Although it is not as precious as Internal Cultivation Manual, it is still much rarer than ordinary martial arts. Seeing that Greater Mastery the "Wandering Dragon Steps ", Qin Ming breathed a slight sigh of relief.
In this way, if you encounter a situation that you can't solve, you'll have a better chance of survival.
The most valuable aspect of "Wandering Dragon Step" is its ability to both attack and defend; it moves like a cunning rabbit and remains still like a virgin; if you really can't win, you can always run away.
Although these Free Attribute Points are enough to push Xingyi Fist to a new level, Qin Ming values Wandering Dragon Step the most for the time being.
After Greater Mastery the "Wandering Dragon Steps," Qin Ming's mind was immediately filled with countless experiences and knowledge about the "Wandering Dragon Steps." He spun around like a whirlwind, rushing past a pile of corpses.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen heads fell to the ground.
Qin Ming was both surprised and delighted.
After Greater Mastery the "Wandering Dragon Steps," not only did his movement and speed improve significantly, but the Enchanting Attributes of his Pig-Slaying Saber Technique also increased dramatically, especially his angled attacks.
Although Qin Ming had mastered the skill of Cook Ding Dissects the Ox, allowing him to easily find the weaknesses of these Dry Corpses and kill them, he needed to kill one before he could take on the next.
At most, one strike can kill three or four.
But things have changed now.
With the boost from "Wandering Dragon Step," Qin Ming's Butcher's Knife speed remained the same, but the angle became even more unpredictable, and each strike was perfectly executed, allowing him to kill more than a dozen Dry Corpses with a single blow.
"Comfortable!"
Qin Ming couldn't help but smile as he looked at the surge in his Free Attribute Points.
If this continues, "The Wandering Dragon Step" might soon be Perfect Mastery.
"Ah!"
The moment this thought arose, a scream came from the Ghost Fog.
The voice sounded somewhat familiar. Although Qin Ming couldn't guess Master, he recognized that the person was one of the participants in the assessment.
"What kind of monster is that! Get out of the way!"
Yan Yue-Ren's exasperated voice echoed from within the Ghost Fog, followed by a deafening roar.
With no way to escape, someone lit the firecrackers they were carrying. With a loud bang, all the approaching Dry Corpse were thrown to the ground.
"Quack!"
Among the Dry Corpses, one figure descended from the sky, grabbed an unfortunate soul, and bit off half of his neck in one bite.
That Dry Corpse was completely different from the Dry Corpse. It was dressed in old official robes, and two long fangs were sticking out, making it look extremely ferocious.
Most importantly, he had a strong aura of death about him.
That's more than ten times the number of other corpses!
"Could it be the Corpse King!?"
Qin Ming thought to himself.
How could Corpse King possibly appear in a place like Qingshan Town?
Generally speaking, Corpse Kings appear in large cities.
Just as Qin Ming was pondering, a number of Wraith suddenly rushed out from the Ghost Fog.
"Wraith! One hundred proficiency points!"
Qin Ming's eyes lit up instantly.
This is much more valuable than Dry Corpse; it's like a tenfold bonus!
Qin Ming immediately rushed forward, casually dispatching a Wraith with his Butcher's Knife.
[Add 100 Free Attribute Points]
Really!
Qin Ming was careless, but just then, a chilling aura came from behind him, rapidly approaching at an alarming speed.
Qin Ming subconsciously used the "Wandering Dragon Steps " technique. The Greater Mastery mastered "Wandering Dragon Steps " made Qin Ming sway slightly like a drunkard, easily shaking off the danger behind him.
"Laugh..."
A white mark appeared where Qin Ming had just stood, and it gradually disappeared as the mist swirled.
It's you!
Qin Ming watched as the Red-Clad Female Ghost swiftly disappeared into the Ghost Fog and quickly understood everything.
This female ghost actually attacked me from behind! How shameless!
"What a pity, just a little short."
The Red-Clad Female Ghost chuckled, "That's fine too. It wouldn't be fun to kill you all at once. I can play with you slowly later."
As she spoke, the female ghost disappeared into the Ghost Fog, vanishing without a trace.
But Qin Ming knew that the other party had not left yet, and if she found an opportunity to launch a sneak attack, she would definitely strike again.
"Hateful!"
Qin Ming cursed inwardly.
In this way, he would have to be constantly wary of the female ghost.
In the Ghost Fog, Wraith flew about, while Dry Corpses swarmed around them.
The remaining people were in dire straits. Although they had magical artifacts to deal with the Wraith, there were too many Wraith, and they could barely protect themselves with just one weapon.
Not to mention there was an extremely terrifying Dry Corpse King nearby.
"Roar!"
The Corpse King attacked from behind, suddenly lunging at Qin Ming.
"Not good!"
Qin Ming's expression changed drastically.
He understood that it was very likely that his breakthrough to the Perfect Mastery the Savage Bull Strength had greatly increased his Qi and Blood, thus attracting the Corpse King.
Before he could think, a foul stench swept over him as the Corpse King charged straight at him. Qin Ming executed a quick, solid movement to dodge the Corpse King's direct attack, then used his Pig-Slaying Saber Technique to thrust it upwards and plunge it into the Corpse King's belly.
With a "plop," the Corpse King's stomach was pierced, and the force of the impact tore open a large gash. But what was chilling was that not only did not a drop of blood flow from the Corpse King, but his Five Viscera and Six Bowels had also vanished!
