Fusing Martial Arts, Escaping with His Life!

"My lord, Qin Ming is still alive! He risked his life to go out of the city to scout the situation. We can't just stand by and watch him die!"

Xiong San suppressed his anger and said in a low voice.

"Should we stand by and watch someone die?"

Yu Qing smiled.

"Xiong San, how can you be so sure that person is Qin Ming? Maybe it's Ghost Entity in disguise? Maybe he's already possessed by Ghost Entity?"

Xiong San paused in his speech.

The ghostly Wraith in the Ghost Fog can indeed possess people, and he couldn't be sure that the person outside was the real Qin Ming.

"Constable Xiong, you can't risk the lives of the entire city to gamble on whether Qin Ming is real, can you?"

Yu Qing chuckled, a hint of mockery flashing across his lips.

He still wants to fight him? Regardless of whether Qin Ming is real or fake, he's doomed today!

"Yes, Constable Xiong, I think it's best to wait and see."

"That's right, it's best not to act rashly in the current situation."

"Constable Xiong, my whole family is in the city. If you insist on opening the door, don't blame me for not showing any mercy!"

"No one is allowed to open this door today, and I'm the first to disagree!"

All the leaders of the major gangs and family heads stepped forward.

Xiong San's eyes were filled with anger, yet he was powerless to do anything about it.

Even if he forced the door open, these people would stop him.

"Junior Brother!"

Pei Heng, leaning on his cane, quickly rushed over.

"Open the door! Let Qin Ming in!"

"Senior brother..."

Xiong San quickly went over to help Pei Heng up, lowered his head, and said in a hoarse voice, "Senior brother, I'm sorry, I can't open this Junior Brother."

"What!"

Pei Heng was struck dumb.

"Martial Uncle!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Liu and the others' expressions changed drastically, finding it hard to accept.

The city wall of Qingyang County is over twenty zhang high and is made of the hardest granite. Even the most skilled light-footed person cannot fly up it. Under these circumstances, if the city gate is not opened, Qin Ming will only face certain death!

"Junior Brother!"

Upon hearing the news, Li Shengnan felt dizzy and fainted on the spot.

"Junior Brother!!"

Lu Liu clenched his fists tightly, but could only let out a helpless roar.

"Senior Brother Qin."

Ye Wei and the others also found it hard to accept and couldn't help but sob.

Why not open the door when there's a way out right in front of you?

Why won't you open the door?!

"Roar!"

The Demon roared, and terrifying waves of Ghost Fog surged forth, sweeping across Qin Ming like a raging storm.

Qin Ming knelt on one knee, the Butcher's Knife driven deep into the ground, desperately supporting him in the storm.

Once thrown into the air, with nowhere to brace themselves, they will surely become food for that Silver-Haired Evil Ghost!

The three Perfection Realm Horizontal Training Martial Arts— Savage Bull Strength, Iron Body Shirt, and Bedrock Skill —are unleashed with frenzied power.

"Pfft!"

Qin Ming's muscles bulged, shattering his clothes with a loud crash.

A chilling wind howled, and the cold, icy energy, like needles, frantically drilled into Qin Ming's body.

Qin Ming's physical body, at the Early Flesh-Refining Realm, was like a small boat in a storm, which could capsize at any moment.

"Black Tiger Life-Severing Blade, maxed out!"

Qin Ming looked at the last martial art and decisively maxed it out.

He hadn't used the large number of attribute points he gained from killing the Dry Corpses, enough to push this sword technique to its Perfection Realm.

"Buzz!"

The Butcher's Knife in Qin Ming's hand emitted a soft humming sound, like the roar of a dragon and the howl of a tiger, exuding a strong aura of killing intent.

[Ninth-Rank Martial Art: Black Tiger Life-Severing Blade (1000/1000) Perfect Mastery]

That wasn't all; Qin Ming suddenly noticed a new column appearing at the bottom of the panel.

[Check if similar martial arts techniques such as "Tiger Fist," "Xingyi Tiger Fist," and "Black Tiger Life-Severing Blade" have been combined?]

"Merge!"

Qin Ming was both surprised and delighted, and the three martial arts techniques on the panel quickly disappeared.

[Unnamed Cultivation Method (1/5000)]

Really!

The fused unknown martial art, like the Pig-Slaying Saber Technique, has entered its second stage, and the starting upgrade point is 5,000 points, indicating its extreme difficulty. Once upgraded, its strength will definitely skyrocket.

"Let's call the new martial art 'Black Tiger Xingyi Saber'."

Looking at the remaining five thousand or so points of free attribute, Qin Ming clicked on them without hesitation.

The panel flashed slightly, then quickly became clear:

[Eighth-Rank Martial Arts: Black Tiger Xingyi Saber (300/10000)]

The moment the techniques were completely integrated, Qin Ming felt a buzzing in his mind, and he felt as if his whole being had been elevated.

The second stage of the training method is incomparable to the first stage; this is a qualitative change.

Qin Ming seemed to understand something.

No sooner said than done, all of this happened in a mere instant.

Qin Ming suddenly looked up, and his aura had undergone a dramatic change.

The second stage of the Black Tiger Xingyi Saber consists of three strikes, using the same Black Tiger Life-Severing Blade: Black Tiger Splits the Mountain, Black Tiger Soul Severing, and Black Tiger Severing Fate.

The three strikes are each more powerful than the last, especially the final strike, which is a life-or-death swordsmanship, where every ounce of strength is used to fight for one's life.

It's either you die or I die!

Seeing no movement at the city gate, Qin Ming knew that he could only rely on himself to survive. Looking at the towering city wall, Qin Ming pushed off with his feet and soared into the sky.

He sheathed the Butcher's Knife behind his back, unleashed his Eagle Claw Skill, and black, terrifying Fire Poison emanated from his claws. With a "plop," he firmly gripped the granite. Then, Qin Ming used both hands and feet to crawl upwards as quickly as a monkey.

Even though granite is as hard as iron, Qin Ming strength has greatly increased and who now possesses the Fire Poison Art, can easily use his Eagle Claw Skill to dig into the rock.

"Sir! That kid has climbed up!"

On the city wall, soldiers who witnessed this scene screamed in terror.

"What!"

Yu Qing peeked out and his expression changed.

"Granite is indestructible. Qin Ming's ability to climb it with his bare hands is definitely due to Ghost Entity possession. Fire arrows immediately! Shoot him down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of bows were aimed at Qin Ming.

"Whoosh!!"

Arrows rained down on Qin Ming.

Below, the Silver-Haired Evil Ghost saw Qin Ming trying to escape, its blood-red vertical pupils blazing with fury.

It raised its spear high and hurled it at Qin Ming.

"Sizzle!"

The Ghost Fog was forcibly torn open in the middle, creating a long passage. The ear-piercing sound of it cutting through the air was clearly audible even to those on the city wall, shaking their very souls.

Qin Ming turned around abruptly. The spear was incredibly fast, and it seemed there was no time to dodge. Qin Ming drew his Butcher's Knife and unleashed his full power in an instant.

"Black Tiger Severing Fate!"

"Roar!"

As Qin Ming unleashed his slash, the Butcher's Knife trembled violently, and a black tiger shadow leaped out with the force of the strike. Moreover, the black tiger was engulfed in raging flames and malevolent Sha Qi, a result of the combined malevolent Sha Qi of the Fire Poison Art and the Butcher's Knife itself!

Qin Ming's attention was highly focused, and his skill in dissecting Cook Ding Dissects the Ox was activated.

He wielded the Butcher's Knife and thrust it upwards with a powerful side slash, striking precisely where the spear was weakest.

"Laugh!"

In an instant, sparks flew everywhere. At the critical moment, the spear was deflected, its tip piercing deep into the granite against Qin Ming's chest.

Even granite as hard as iron was pierced by the spear, with the entire spearhead embedded inside.

Qin Ming was startled, and gained a general understanding of the power of Demon.

After Black Tiger Severing Fate, Qin Ming was almost completely exhausted. He gripped his spear with one hand and swung in the air, taking the opportunity to recover his strength.

Just then, a rain of arrows fell, but fortunately, with Qin Ming's current physical strength, these arrows couldn't harm him at all.

"Sir, that kid is a monster! Arrows bounced off him as soon as they hit him!"

The soldier turned pale with fright when he saw that his arrow had struck Qin Ming in the head and broken in two.

"Pour oil on him and burn him to death!"

Soon, barrels of oil were poured down the city wall, forming a long tongue of fire that quickly engulfed the exhausted Qin Ming.

"Let's see if you're still alive now!"

Yu Qing felt smug.

But the next moment, his eyes widened suddenly.

The flames on Qin Ming's body began to diminish rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

"How is this possible?"

Everyone stared in disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Fire Poison Art! It's the Fire Poison Art!"

Xiong San immediately realized what was happening and laughed inwardly.

The Fire Poison Art allows one to ingest not only poison but also fire. This oil cannot harm Qin Ming at all; on the contrary, it can help him recover his strength.

"Keep pouring! Pour it all down, burn him to death!"

Yu Qing personally took a bucket of kerosene and poured it over Qin Ming's head.

"Splash!"

Qin Ming's entire body was engulfed in oil, and flames shot several feet high.

"That idiot Yu Qing even tried to kill me!"

Qin Ming withdrew his gaze; his power had recovered by about half after absorbing the flames.

He grabbed the spear, swung it around, and landed on it. Then, with a sudden burst of strength, the spear bent into an arc under the pressure, and then straightened abruptly. Qin Ming shot into the air like an arrow. In mid-air, he took several steps, each step propelling him several meters higher. Finally, he flipped over and landed steadily on the city wall.

The last bit of oil on Qin Ming's body gradually went out, and his clothes were burned to ashes.

Looking at Qin Ming, who was completely bald and openly walking his penis, Yu Qing didn't find it funny; instead, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Someone who fought their way out of the Ghost Fog and survived a hail of arrows and scorching oil unscathed, now that they've returned alive, how could they possibly let themselves off the hook?

"Qin... Qin Ming, listen to me, I thought you were possessed by Demon."

Yu Qing stammered as he explained, retreating behind the numerous Bone Refining Realm experts.

These people will be Qin Ming's shield if he dares to make a move.

"Martial Uncle, could you please bring me a new set of clothes?"

Qin Ming ignored him.

I have some here.

Lu Liu quickly stepped forward and took off his outer robe.

Qin Ming took it and wrapped it around himself. Then he slowly turned around and looked at Yu Qing and the gang leaders. His eyes were cold and a creepy smile appeared on his lips.

"Alright, now it's time to settle the accounts."
