Pinnacle Realm Cultivation Method and Martial Arts

[Killed a Level 4 Profound Realm Dog Fiend, gained 2 Demon Points!]

[Killed a Level 6 Profound Realm Pig Fiend, gained 3 Demon Points!]

[Killed a Level 5 Profound Realm Cat Fiend, gained 2 Demon Points!]

Li Xuanxiao searched Ning'an City for lone demons.

After several hours, his Demon Points had accumulated to over 50!

"System, let me add some points!"

Instantly, the system interface appeared before his eyes.

[Consumed 15 Demon Points, Evergreen Art has reached Sublimity Realm!]

[Consumed 15 Demon Points, Focused Spirit Slash has reached Sublimity Realm!]

With 30 Demon Points invested, both his cultivation art and martial skill broke through to Sublimity Realm!

Sublimity Realm was the highest realm for cultivation arts and martial skills!

It wasn't something that could be achieved through diligent practice, but rather required a mysterious, profound flash of inspiration.

However, once achieved, it represented a qualitative leap!

"I didn't expect the system could directly boost me to Sublimity Realm..."

Li Xuanxiao clicked his tongue in amazement.

His aura surged rapidly, quickly reaching the peak of Level 9 Profound Realm.

Just one step away from the Martial Dao Second Realm - Pinnacle Realm.

The vast internal energy within his body gradually underwent subtle, wondrous changes.

It condensed into a tangible form, transforming into a misty substance.

True Qi!

Li Xuanxiao rejoiced inwardly; this was the mark of entering the Pinnacle Realm!

Even though he hadn't fully transformed yet, his current strength was nearly double what it was before!

Once all the internal energy in his body converted into True Qi, he would officially enter the Pinnacle Realm!

The improvement in his cultivation art was surprising, and the changes in his martial skill were equally significant.

Now, the Focused Spirit Slash, having reached Sublimity Realm, could not only unleash five blade lights at once but could also condense them into a single point, dealing several times the previous damage!

Li Xuanxiao's overall strength advanced by leaps and bounds once more!

Based on the memories of his previous body, the strongest martial artist in Ning'an City was no higher than Level 9 Profound Realm.

Li Xuanxiao's peak Profound Realm cultivation had made him the de facto strongest martial artist in Ning'an City!

The improvement of his cultivation art and martial skill had now reached its limit.

To improve further, he would need to cultivate higher-grade cultivation arts and martial skills.

Li Xuanxiao pondered where he could find such things.

His predecessor was a constable in Ning'an City, and he had inherited everything. Naturally, he was now a constable as well.

The constables in the Yamen were all late-stage Profound Realm martial artists. They should possess higher-grade martial skills and cultivation arts!

With this thought, he casually flicked the demon blood off his blade, sheathed it, and decided to head back to the Yamen.

Following the route from his memories, he soon saw the familiar Yamen courtyard.

Li Xuanxiao stepped inside, only to be met by several demons.

They were the same late-stage Profound Realm demons who had just finished negotiating with the Magistrate!

Li Xuanxiao couldn't help but narrow his eyes, casually glancing at them as he walked further in.

The demons also noticed this greenhorn dressed as a constable.

They found it quite strange.

Others would tremble and be terrified upon seeing them, barely holding back from wetting themselves. Yet, this kid completely ignored them.

Furthermore, the strong scent of blood on this kid, with a lingering aura of ferocity, suggested he had recently seen combat.

However, their objective had been achieved, and they were in a good mood, so they didn't bother thinking too much about it.

Blood?

The Rat Fiend among the demons twitched its pointed nose a few times, its brow furrowing slightly.

Why did this kid faintly exude a familiar aura?

But for a moment, he couldn't recall where he knew him from.

This is strange...

Shaking his head, the Rat Fiend dismissed it as a hallucination. After glancing at Li Xuanxiao again, he continued to leave with the other demons.

Li Xuanxiao quickly arrived at the Yamen's main hall.

The Magistrate sat at the head seat, while the constables below hung their heads dejectedly, as if mourning their parents.

The atmosphere was off; it seemed the negotiations had not gone well.

Li Xuanxiao approached his superior and whispered, "Head Wang, how did the negotiations go? What was the outcome?"

The middle-aged man, known as Head Wang, shook his head.

"His Honor agreed to the demons' demands. From now on, even if demons hunt and kill martial artists, we can only stand by and do nothing..."

Li Xuanxiao clicked his tongue. This was undoubtedly pushing all martial artists into a fiery pit!

The low-level martial artists, completely unaware of this matter, would become prey for the demons without any defense.

"You, kid, be careful lately. Try not to act alone. If absolutely necessary, you can move in with me. There's still an empty room in my courtyard."

Wang Debiao said softly, "Low-level martial artists like you are most likely to be the demons' first targets!"

Li Xuanxiao felt grateful.

"Thank you, Head Wang. But I'm used to living alone, so I won't."

Wang Debiao glared at Li Xuanxiao. "You kid, why don't you listen? You've finally stepped into the Martial Dao, how can you die in a place like this?"

"Follow me, and if anything happens, I can look out for you."

Li Xuanxiao shook his head.

In a world where demons ran rampant, one either fought desperately to become stronger or became food for the demons.

Let alone having the system by his side now, even without it, he wouldn't just sit and wait for death.

"Escaping is a slow form of suicide. There will always be a day when you have nowhere left to retreat. At that time, the outcome will be more tragic than dying in battle..."

Wang Debiao was taken aback, not expecting Li Xuanxiao to say something like that.

Yeah, if I run away, can I stop all this?

Did the Magistrate's constant yielding earn the demons' goodwill?

No! It will only make them push harder, step by step.

He snorted, "You talk a good game, kid. I've said what I needed to say. Whether you come or not is up to you!"

Li Xuanxiao smiled and pursed his lips. "If Head Wang really wants to help me, then..."

Ning'an City, Wang Family.

Wang Debiao dragged a wooden box out from under his bed.

Li Xuanxiao stood by, waiting silently.

Soon, the wooden box was opened, revealing its contents.

Several different martial arts cultivation techniques lay quietly in the center.

Wang Debiao looked at them, a hint of pride appearing on his lips.

"When I was young, I was also a martial artist who traveled the Jianghu. During that time, I collected quite a few cultivation techniques and martial arts."

"These few books are my hidden treasures. If it weren't for the current special circumstances, I really wouldn't have taken them out."

Li Xuanxiao nodded vigorously, like a pecking chicken, offering flattery at the right moment.

The smile on Wang Debiao's face grew even thicker.

"I know you're just saying nice things to coax me, kid, but it doesn't matter."

"It's fine for you to take a look at these things, but remember, don't bite off more than you can chew."

"Also, after looking at my treasures, you must agree to one condition: the empty room over there will be your residence from now on."

"Don't refuse! I don't want you to look at them today and get slaughtered by demons when you go out tomorrow!"

Li Xuanxiao indicated he understood and immediately scanned the names of these cultivation techniques and martial arts.

Soaring Hawk Nine Steps

Myriad Manifestations Violet Zenith Art

Thousand Peaks Ruin Blade

Silent Heart Sutra

"Kid, I recommend you look at that blade technique and footwork first."

"The other two are not for martial artists in the Profound Realm."

Li Xuanxiao's eyes lit up. Those were exactly what he wanted – not for martial artists in the Profound Realm!
