" Xiao Feng, what martial arts should I learn now?" Jiang Jie asked silently in his heart.
"Host, you shouldn't learn any martial arts right now. Like I said, the skills you've learned are enough; don't try to learn too much at once." Xiao Feng said, "The illusions created by the game pod can hone your spirit, but they can't hone your body. What you need now is real combat to train your body's reflexes and reaction abilities, forming conditioned reflexes and muscle memory. The Pegasus Meteor Finger, the Thirty-Six Dragon-Subduing Palms, Taijiquan are all things you've only just begun to understand. Unless you've achieved some success, it's not suitable for you to learn more martial arts."
Beginner's Practice, initial glimpse, slight progress, mastery, proficiency, divine skill, transcendence, reaching the pinnacle, a Grandmaster, astonishing the world, transcending the ordinary and attaining sainthood.
These are the eleven realms of martial arts.
Of course, not all martial arts can reach such a level. Many martial arts can only be practiced to the point of being "divine skill" or "the pinnacle." Only superior martial arts can make a person a " Grandmaster." And to "transcend the ordinary and enter sainthood," only supreme martial arts such as the Thirty-Six Dragon-Subduing Palms, the Pegasus Meteor Finger, and the Taiji Divine Art can achieve this.
Jiang Jie is still far from being good enough.
"In fact, many martial artists in the 35th century would choose to join the army and then go to the alien battlefield to fight and expand the territory of the Galactic Federation. Many died, and many rose to prominence. One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand. Every Xiantian martial artist has countless blood on their hands and has killed countless creatures." Xiao Feng said calmly, but there was a hint of emotion in his voice.
She told Jiang Jie that the Galactic Federation had many enemies, and that there were countless intelligent and gifted races in the universe. Its wonders even surpassed those of Azeroth, and there were creatures comparable to the Wild Gods, and quite a few of them.
The rise of many Legendary martial artists was accompanied by countless bloody battles. The corpses of the creatures they killed could pile up into mountains, and their blood could flow into rivers!
For example, Earthly Fiend Mountain was actually a real mountain range on a certain planet, which was occupied by a group of human martial artists and became a bandit's den. Later, a Xiantian expert spent three years single-handedly eliminating all seventy-two peaks and killing all the Xiantian experts on the mountain. He eventually went a step further and became a Martial Arts Master!
"Real combat? I understand. Then, let's go to Andorhal." Jiang Jie nodded slightly.
There is no real combat in Lordaeron; killing is the real combat!
Lordaeron's current enemy is the Undead, and the place with the most Undead is Darrowmere. Besides Stratholme, Andorhal currently has the largest number of Undead. Stratholme is too far and too dangerous; Andorhal is the most suitable place for them.
Jiang Jie finished writing the rest of " The Dark Portal," then told Princess Calia and went to the Assassins' Order's base.
"What? You're going to Andorhal? You want to fight the Undead? You're going to use this as your advanced rogue quest? This... is too dangerous!" Miles shook his head immediately. "No, absolutely not! You should be practicing your rogue skills now and striving to become a master rogue as soon as possible!"
"Lord Miles, I've already spoken to Princess Calia about this, and she agreed. I... I just came to inform you and say goodbye." Jiang Jie smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I won't touch enemies that are too powerful. Don't you know how thieves can protect themselves? Besides, what kind of master thief is raised in a greenhouse? I need the tempering of blood and fire!"
Miles opened his mouth, but was speechless.
Indeed, a great thief cannot be cultivated in a greenhouse. As a traveler in the darkness and a dancer on the edge of a knife, a thief's hands are always stained with blood. A thief can kill more people in his lifetime than a Warrior fights bloody battles on the battlefield!
"Alright, come with me!" Miles activated a mechanism, leading Jiang Jie to the underground chamber. Then, pointing to a set of gray-black equipment hanging on the wall, he said, "It..."
"It's yours!" Before Master Onias left, he was granted permission to enter the secret chamber and possess rights equivalent to Master Onias's, including the right to use all the equipment inside.
"This is... the Nightslayer Armor?" Jiang Jie's eyes lit up.
The Nightslayer Armor, a purple epic quality rogue set, is one of the best rogue sets in the entire Lordaeron region, ranking alongside the Bloodfang Armor from Stormwind City's SI:7.
Each piece of purple epic-level equipment is unique.
Bloodfang is unique, Master Onias's Darkmantle Armor is unique, and this Nightslayer Armor is unique in this secret room. Its value is far greater than all the other equipment in the room combined, and is immeasurable.
This thief's set is probably worth no less than, and perhaps even more than, the Elemental Necklace Princess Calia gave him.
Only a master thief truly deserves this set of equipment; even a high-level thief cannot unleash its full potential when wearing it.
"Master Onias once said that this set of equipment was prepared for the next master thief in the Assassins' Order. Logically, it shouldn't be given to you now," Miles said. "But I know you'll become a master thief sooner or later. And you've become a high-level thief so quickly; if Master Onias knew, he would have given it to you ahead of time. You deserve it!"
Nightslayer!
Jiang Jie over and gently stroked it with his hand.
This is a set of leather armor, smooth in surface and very flexible. It was made from the hide of some epic creature, combined with some special elemental materials, crafted by a master leatherworker, and then personally enchanted by Archmage. It also bears traces of Kirin Tor magic.
It is related to shadow, allowing the wearer to get closer to shadow, more easily call upon Shadow energy, and more easily manipulate Shadow energy, making all shadow-related skills stronger!
For example, Stealth, vanishing, and the Cloak of Shadows.
Nightslayer, an assassin hidden in the night. Thieves are divided into three styles: Subtlety, Assassination, and Combat. This Nightslayer is best suited for Subtlety and Assassination rogues, especially Assassination rogues!
Anyone who wears it will become a killer under the cover of night. This set of equipment is even better than Master Onias's Darkmantle Armor, and it is the treasure of the Assassins' Order.
Jiang Jie didn't refuse. He really liked this set of equipment; it would make his trip to Andorhal safer and more exciting!
"Lord Miles, thank you!" Jiang Jie was sincerely grateful, knowing that this high-ranking assassin was genuinely looking out for him.
Early the next morning, Jiang Jie rode a Wildhammer Dwarves of Lordaeron and flew eastward.
" Andorhal, I'm back."
