Peerless Martial Art

Feeling the [demon] Tag composed of elements such as [evil], [cruelty], [tyranny], and [greed], Feng Xue was in a very good mood.

I'd heard before that Federal Columbia ambulances were ridiculously expensive and not covered by health insurance, and now, judging from this Tag, it certainly lives up to the hype!

However, perhaps because the number of people who recognize it is relatively small, or perhaps because the Trait that make up the Tag not contain fantasy elements such as [abyss], [magic], or [Non-human Creature], Feng Xue did not obtain skills that traditional demons possess, such as Black Magic, Demon Summoning Technique, or Space Teleportation, from the knowledge provided by the tag. She only found some things like torture and seduction, which was very discordant.

Feng Xue wasn't worried that the Tag would affect her personality. After all, the "nothingness" of Infinite City and the true innate Weird Tale were still somewhat different.

Simply put, Innate Supernatural Tale are like babies who are Tag at birth. Their values are entirely based on the knowledge provided by the Tag. Whatever Tag they receive determines the education they receive, and naturally, they will grow up to be that kind of person. Acquired Supernatural Tale, on the other hand, are Tag that are received in adulthood. Their values are already fully established. Even if they receive Tag that does not match their personality, they have enough discernment to not be easily distorted by the Tag.

Finding nothing of note about the technology, Feng Xue put the new Tag aside and began to experience the boost brought by several factors.

Then he discovered that the Tag brought by this demon was actually much more useful than he had imagined.

Leaving aside the element of [evil], [cruelty] can reduce the impact of emotional fluctuations on his thinking ability, making it a low-end version of Iron Will. [tyranny] is equivalent to Conqueror's Haki, giving him an aura that can exert pressure on people when released, causing them to unconsciously feel fear.

However, what satisfied Feng Xue the most was the element of [greed]. It gave Feng Xue an almost instinctive intuition for high-value items. Simply put, when Feng Xue made choices based solely on intuition, she was more likely to select the option with higher profit.

Of course, because there are currently too few people who understand the [Demon] Tag, the increase brought by these factors can only be described as better than nothing, but Feng Xue believes that as long as she works hard, she can definitely develop the potential of this Tag!

But now...

Feng Xue turned her attention back to the books she had purchased that day.

By this time, he had already categorized the large bag of books. Six professional reference books and blank notebooks were placed together, while the narrative books were completely disassembled and categorized according to plot, paragraphs, or the appearance of special items, forming seventy or eighty different combinations.

Feng Xue picked up the stapler and began binding the separated pages together with a click, then started his practice for the day.

You should know that Feng Xue has never been this wealthy in the nearly three months since he transmigrated. The feeling of having accumulated a bunch of boxes ready to be opened made him a little too excited.

Fortunately, the power of the [cruelty] element quickly calmed him down. After some selection, he picked up the page containing the story of a boy who survived a great calamity buying a wand and began to add Tag—

"[Items], [Weapons], let's start with these two."

Feng Xue didn't have any magic or spells at his disposal, so he didn't intend to ship the Smelt directly in the early stages. In other words, he preferred to destroy the smelted Phantom Object to see if he could recover any useful elements.

A few random drops of [knowledge] were added, and a wondrous power began to spin along with the pages. Characters seemed to float from the pages, then combined with the Tag injected by Feng Xue, transforming in a few seconds into...

A black ball.

"Alright, after all, I've already crafted two good items, so it's normal for luck to prevail!" Feng Xue watched the black sphere slowly disappear without a care in the world, and then took out a few more sets of pages to begin crafting again.

Another black ball. (Can you believe it? Five consecutive black balls?)

The continuous black balls quickly Cooldown Feng Xue's initial enthusiasm. He frowned and muttered:

"So many black orbs? That can't be right. Or is there something wrong with my Smelt method?"

Thinking about this, he realized he might have accidentally triggered some kind of special mechanism. After a moment's thought, he casually tore off a piece of paper, wrote "Fireball Scroll" on it, rolled it up, and put it into the [Item] Tag, wanting to see if he had really accidentally fallen into the special rule of "no matter how he crafts, he can only get black balls".

To his surprise, this time the rolled-up notebook didn't disappear; instead, it transformed into a fist-sized object...

Hand grenade.

"Damn... what's the principle behind this?"

Feng Xue stared at the grenade, completely bewildered. However, considering it was clearly a Phantom Object, he still used his Golden Finger ability to identify it.

Name: Phantom Object Toy Grenade

Elements: [Props], [Toys], [Counterfeits], [Scare]

Description: A high-quality replica toy supposedly purchased from a shop in a police equipment museum. Although it has no practical value, it seems to have the magical effect of making people mistake it for the real thing.

Note: This thing might not make a loud noise when thrown, but it can definitely give you a big bump on the head.

"What kind of comedic thing is this?" Feng Xue was amused and annoyed at the same time, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be quite interesting, so she immediately tugged it at her lower back.

After seeing this thing, Feng Xue confirmed that she had indeed been unlucky before. However, as each page of the book turned into a black ball, Feng Xue also felt a little numb.

Because he discovered that this thing had an excessively high failure rate!

He disassembled the entire Harry Potter book into more than a dozen parts, and in the end, apart from a fake grenade, he only produced a Fat Tongue Toffee that could make the tongue of the person who ate it swell to more than four feet long for twenty-four hours.

Although this thing could indeed be called a magical item, Feng Xue still felt that she was a bit unlucky.

He thought about it and felt that the matter might be related to the book itself, so he put the fairy tale aside, picked up a copy of Bruce Lee's original Jeet Kune Do, and began to Smelt.

This time I was lucky. As the [prop] element slowly dissipated, the book in my hand changed and became a thread-bound book that looked very old.

"It's a fortune!" Upon seeing the thread-bound book, Feng Xue's expression immediately became excited, but when he saw the four large characters on the book, he was suddenly dumbfounded.

It's not that the book is some strange or weird thing; in fact, the cover of the book simply says the four big characters "Peerless Martial Art".

To be honest, what kind of Peerless Martial Art manual would have the words "Peerless Martial Art" written on it?

"I have a bad feeling about this." Feng Xue pursed her lips, narrowed her eyes, and as she aimed at the manual, its description appeared before her eyes—

Name: Phantom Object - Peerless Martial Art

Elements: [Martial Arts], [Secret Manuals], [Items], [Insights], [Mysteries], [Peerless Skills], [Mysterious Book]

Synopsis: This book contains the catalog of Peerless Martial Art, including internal energy cultivation, movement techniques, Ultimate Skill, Fist and Palm and Sword Technique Leg Technique Finger Technique, Saber Technique, sword techniques, Exotic Arts, Long Weapons, Peerless Martial Art, archery, Soft Weapon, and music. The content of this book will change each time you read it; you can only save the content by using bookmarks.

Note: I Think for three years and practiced for thirty years before reaching my current level...

(I drew fifteen times, and thirteen of them were black balls. I got a good one twice, but one of them was a comedic combination of a toy and a fake. It's really not my strength to bet on the main character...)

As is customary before its release... I mean, I'd like to recommend a book published around the same time:

Inventing at Hogwarts

After Hogwarts, the pressure shifted to Azkaban.

When Voldemort broke free, he was defeated by Harry Potter with a single electromagnetic cannon shot.

"Rig, this is much better than a wand!"
