The Eagle-Shooting Hero

"The Chasing Moon Bow, an ancient divine weapon. Legend had it that an ancient sage used the wind tendons from within an Eighth-tier Demonic Beast Wind Luan as its string and the withered trunk of the Bodhi Ancient Tree as its limbs to forge this bow. I obtained it by chance and relied on it to come to Wind Absolute Canyon to hunt the Mad Thunder Gale Eagle. Yet I was unexpectedly injured by it and, on the verge of death, hid myself here..."

From the beast-hide scroll in the Storage Ring, Mo Tang learned that the owner of these bones had been a peak Dou Emperor known as the "Wind Thunder Emperor." Because he had wanted to cultivate a special battle skill, he had found this Chasing Moon Bow and its matching archery technique, then come here to hunt a Mad Thunder Gale Eagle that was likewise at the peak of the Sixth Tier...

As for the three Black Arrows, they had been three poison arrows he had specially prepared. It was said that even a peak Sixth-tier Demonic Beast would die from the poison within a few breaths if struck by one!

What he had not expected, however, was that the Mad Thunder Gale Eagle had actually broken through to the Seventh Tier... So in the end, this fellow who had wanted to become an eagle-shooting hero was beaten stupid by it... After barely escaping by luck, he had died here...

Among the relics left behind by this Wind Thunder Emperor, aside from the Chasing Moon Bow, one of the remaining three scrolls contained the Earth Tier Low Grade battle skill that matched the bow—the Swift Star Chasing Moon Bow Technique.

The other two scrolls were respectively the cultivation technique this Wind Thunder Emperor had practiced, the Earth Tier High Grade Wind Thunder Gangsha; and the method for creating the special battle skill that had directly caused his death—the Flight Dou Technique Wind Thunder Twin Wings!

"Ha ha, what a haul! What a haul!"

Holding those items, Mo Tang was so excited that his entire body trembled.

An Earth Tier High Grade cultivation technique, an Earth Tier Low Grade battle skill, and even the method for crafting a special flight battle skill!

With these things, Mo Tang would never again have to worry about lacking high-level cultivation techniques and battle skills!

"Stay calm, stay calm... As a Transmigrator, why am I acting like such a country bumpkin...!"

Though he said that, Mo Tang still could not stop the corners of his mouth from stretching to the back of his head...

There was only one thing that made Mo Tang feel rather miserable.

He now had cultivation techniques and battle skills, but he did not have Energy Points of the corresponding grade to upgrade them...

As mentioned before, the system had clear classifications for energy grades.

Yellow Tier and Mysterious Tier cultivation techniques and battle skills only required Low-grade Energy to upgrade, and the consumption was not great. But once they reached Earth Tier battle skills, they required Mid-grade Energy, while Heaven Tier ones required High-grade Energy...

Mo Tang could not help but frown.

Right now, he was guarding a treasure mountain yet unable to use it... This feeling was truly awful!

"No! I need to see whether there are any other hidden secrets here. How can I go without getting some Mid-grade Energy!"

With that thought in mind, Mo Tang once again inspected the entire stone chamber inch by inch.

And sure enough, he really found something!

On one wall of the stone chamber, he discovered a small groove...

"Could this stone wall also be some kind of mechanism door? But where's the Key?"

After searching for more than an hour without figuring anything out, Mo Tang grew somewhat agitated.

"Damn it! Don't tell me I'm supposed to dig this stone wall open myself!"

He raised the Chasing Moon Bow in his hand and directly condensed half of his Dou Qi into a cyan arrow, which shot out with a whoosh.

Yet to Mo Tang's surprise, when the Dou Qi arrow was still three fingers away from the stone wall, it was actually deflected...

"What's going on?"

Mo Tang walked over in surprise and began inspecting it himself once more.

In the end, he finally discovered that the stone wall before him had an invisible seal...

This seal only reacted to energy-based attacks such as Dou Qi. If it was physical force, it would not trigger the seal.

"This is fucking ridiculous!"

In irritation, Mo Tang threw a punch at the stone wall.

"Huh..."

Then he suddenly saw the white Storage Ring already on his finger, and Mo Tang froze.

"Fuck! I'm such an idiot!"

Hadn't the Key been in his hand all along?

Once he figured that out, Mo Tang nearly slapped himself!

He removed the Storage Ring and placed it into the groove. With a rumble, the stone wall slowly rose, revealing the other half of the stone chamber that had been sealed off.

This half of the space was not large, and a small flower bed actually grew in its center...

"Heh! Looks like this Dou Emperor had quite the refined taste... He even grew flowers."

Mo Tang walked forward with a smile.

He certainly did not believe these were ordinary ornamental flowers!

Sure enough, when his palm touched one of the icy-blue flowers, "Mid-grade Energy detected: 100 points. Absorb?"

"Yes/No."

"Holy shit!" Mo Tang's eyes widened instantly.

Mid-grade Energy, and a hundred points at that!

He had never expected this inconspicuous little blue flower to be of such a high grade!

"Absorb them! Absorb every last one!"

Mo Tang's eyes reddened slightly, and his face became flushed...

"I'm not an alchemist. Why the hell would I keep these things instead of absorbing them into Energy Points!"

Like a wild boar charging into a backyard garden... After a bout of frenzied plundering and destruction, the once-beautiful little garden was reduced to withered grass scattered all over the ground...

But the Energy Points in Mo Tang's possession had seen an enormous harvest!

Name: Mo Tang Level: Seven-Star Fighter ↑

Cultivation Technique: Thunderous Qi (Grand Completion) ↑

Battle Skills:

Triple Blade Qi (Perfection) ↑

Blood Beast Body Forging Art · Wind (First Layer) ↑

Available Energy Points:

Low-grade: 964

Mid-grade: 5156

His Mid-grade Energy had actually exceeded five thousand in one go!

His Low-grade Energy was also nearly one thousand...

Moreover, all of that Low-grade Energy had been absorbed from plants Mo Tang had treated like weeds, nearly making him faint from joy!

"I'm rich, I'm rich... Hahahaha..."

He danced and sang like a madman for a full ten minutes before finally venting all the excitement in his heart...

Mo Tang even suspected that if he had kept that excitement bottled up, he might have gone insane.

After taking more than a dozen deep breaths, his racing mind finally calmed down. Then, looking at the attributes on his Upgrade Panel, he repeatedly tapped the upgrade symbol behind his level.

"Upgrading to an Eight-star Fighter requires 64 Low-grade Energy Points. Upgrade?"

"Yes/No"

"Yes!"

"Upgrading to a Nine-star Fighter requires 68 Low-grade Energy Points. Upgrade?"

"Yes/No"

"Yes!"

"Upgrading to a One-star Dou Shi requires 108 Low-grade Energy Points. Upgrade?"

He raised his strength all the way to the level of a Six-star Dou Shi in one breath. When he tapped again, the following appeared: "Upgrading to a Seven-star Dou Shi requires 156 Low-grade Energy Points. Upgrade?"

"Yes/No"

"Yes!"

"Insufficient Low-grade Energy Points. Upgrade failed. Spend 92 Mid-grade Energy Points to make up the difference?"

"Yes/No"

"Yes—eh, no!"

Finally snapping out of his frenzy, Mo Tang shuddered and hurriedly stopped his trembling little hand...
