Abundant Martial Arts Virtue

"Feeling a bit wronged?" Thunder Monkey asked.

"Of course, I can't believe I stood up for an enemy! Honestly, I wanted to kill him, but Pangu Card Set was more important, so I had to spend money to get things done." Wu Xiaode said.

"Come on, come on, a real man knows when to yield and when to hold firm, here's to you." Thunder Monkey said.

It was crouched on the card and somehow got two cups of fruit wine, handing one to Wu Xiaode and holding one for itself.

"What is this?" Wu Xiaode took the wine.

"Made from Thunder Hi Ice Fruit, it's beneficial, especially for you." Thunder Monkey said.

Evil Spirit Book also showed a line of small text:

"It's useful after drinking."

Wu Xiaode raised the cup, clinked it with Thunder Monkey's, and drank the wine made from Thunder Hi Ice Fruit in one shot.

It tasted a bit sour.

But after swallowing, it felt cool and refreshing.

"Thank you for the wine, I feel much better now, but I still have to find a way to get back at today's situation." Wu Xiaode said.

"Young man, just hold on a bit, your grievances were worth it to awaken me." Thunder Monkey slowly sipped the fruit wine and said.

Wu Xiaode was about to say something when he suddenly felt the surroundings empty.

A massive thunder light emerged from his body, instantly penetrating the Void, striking down on the gloomy plain.

Lines of bronze small text quickly appeared:

"You once absorbed the power of the heavenly tribulation in the future era."

"At this moment, the heavenly tribulation has gained the blessing of Thunder God's Wine, evolving further into Nine Heavens Thunder Skill:"

"Thunder Dragon Twin Scissors."

"Close combat skill, finishing move."

"Description: Summon two Thunder Dragons attached to your hands, releasing ten thousand thunder power in close combat."

Wu Xiaode glanced and was startled, saying: "So strong? Thanks for the gift."

"Don't rush," Thunder Monkey said somberly, "Years ago, I fought Mysterious life with this skill and was invincible for a while, but in the end, I was defeated by the strongest among them."

"The strongest? Who was it?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"I can't say its name, because it went mad afterwards... Its strength has already surpassed the degree of mysteriousness, once I say its name, it will sense our situation here." Thunder Monkey said.

Wu Xiaode fell silent.

—Is there really such a strong existence?

He suddenly recalled the images of those monsters he saw in the Mysterious World.

Lord of Ten Thousand Demons.

ignorant spirit worm.

King of all Demons.

And—

Void Mother.

No, it should be Xia Huilan.

Maybe such an existence has already surpassed the expectations of the Holy Realm.

Otherwise, why did the eternal Holy ones say they were "out of control" but didn't mention their outcomes?

Damn it.

How can I awaken Xia Huilan and ask what all this is about?

Wu Xiaode felt a bit confused, so he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down before opening them again.

"Anyway, thanks for granting me this skill." He said.

Thunder Monkey shook its head, sighed, and said: "This skill has already been mastered by the Holy Realm. I pass it to you, only hoping you can innovate and create a stronger skill on its basis, only then there's a slight hope."

"Rest assured, that's what I do." Wu Xiaode said.

As he spoke, Evil Spirit Book turned to the demon book page.

Without hesitation, he integrated "Thunder Dragon Twin Arrows" into the Death Skill "Mad Dragon Snake."

—The Divine Skill evolved from "Collapse of Heaven," and the Thunder God's "Thunder Dragon Twin Arrows," both are close combat skills.

Combining them is the absolute best choice!

He waited for a few breaths.

A new icon appeared on the demon book, showing a pair of hand knives emitting thunder light, manifesting the forms of dragon and snake.

"Calamity·Dragon Snake Frenzy."

"Evil spirit side knife technique, close combat skill."

"Description: Left hand as snake, right hand as dragon; 'Snake Block' then thunder strikes, 'Dragon Slash' breaks ten thousand laws, destroys everything tangible and intangible."

"—After Thunder Monkey, this skill transforms into a brand-new Divine Skill."

"—Thunder Hi Soldiers Battle!"

Wu Xiaode almost forgot to breathe.

Because Evil Spirit Book is essentially his innate ability, everything on the book is a manifestation of his own power.

When a skill changes, he has already fully comprehended it, which is why it appears on the Evil Spirit Book.

—He immediately sensed its strength!

Indeed.

During the initial awakening phase, Mad Dragon Snake was already strong enough.

Unexpectedly, it could become even stronger!

On the card, Thunder Monkey suddenly sensed it, its eyes gleaming, and said:

"Good! You are worthy of being entrusted by The Queen Mother of the West, you have already integrated my Thunder Skill into your martial arts."

"Moreover, since thunder restrains Ten Thousand Ghosts, you will increasingly dominate in the Netherworld."

"Go continue to elevate your status."

"Thank you, sir." Wu Xiaode cupped his hands to Thunder Monkey.

Evil Spirit Book closed.

There is "Fetus Concealed Confusion" in the magic side, and "Tai Chu" and "Calamity·Dragon Snake Frenzy" in close combat.

Wu Xiaode felt a bit more confident, his figure moved swiftly toward the distant sky.

Soon.

He found Fang Tooth and Big Banana in Hell of Burning.

"Boss, you're back."

Big Banana said happily.

"Yes, I was thinking about one thing—while traveling the Jianghu, we also need a resounding name, I won't be called Little Wu anymore." Wu Xiaode said.

——At this point in time, there is already a Wu Xiaode and a Wu Dade on the surface.

And then underground, there is also a mysterious being called "Little Wu".

This is just too coincidental.

"Boss, you're right, so if we meet others, how should we call your name?" Fanged Tooth asked.

Wu Xiaode pondered for a moment and said, "I have the ability to transform into a Bright Ghost, so when you talk to others, just refer to me as 'Ming'."

"How about calling you Boss Ming instead," Fanged Tooth suggested.

"Boss Ming sounds more streetwise—just call me Brother Ming," Wu Xiaode agreed.

The three of them decided on this and were about to set off when suddenly, lines of small text appeared in the void in front of them:

"Space transmission is ready."

"Come and help me."

"Say 'begin transmission' and you can arrive directly at my location."

"——Sarina."

The three of them read it together.

"Boss, it looks like there's work to be done. Are we going?" Fanged Tooth asked.

"Let's go and see," Wu Xiaode said.

They recited "begin transmission" and disappeared from where they stood.

...

Rain.

A torrential downpour fell on the city that resembled ruins.

Sarina stood under the night sky, her shadow elongated by the dim streetlight.

The void stirred.

Wu Xiaode and his two subordinates appeared beside her.

"What's the situation?"

Wu Xiaode asked.

Sarina replied, "Encountered a Demon Book, need to clear a thousand stages before we can solve the destructive stories within the book."

"What can we do here?" Wu Xiaode asked again.

"If everyone shares the burden, each clearing a few stages, it will be faster," Sarina said.

"How strong are the enemies?" Wu Xiaode asked.

Sarina glanced at Fanged Tooth and Big Banana, then said, "They two form a group, you form a group yourself, and I also form a group on my own."

"How do we clear the stages?"

"Roam around the city, and you can encounter enemies."

"Understood."

Wu Xiaode waved his hand and said to Big Banana and Fanged Tooth, "Did you hear that, brothers? Let's get to work!"

"Yes!"

The two replied and hurriedly headed towards the back of the street.

Wu Xiaode turned to Sarina and said, "Then, I'll also take a walk and try to clear as many stages as possible."

"Thank you," Sarina said.

"No problem."

Wu Xiaode said, then turned and walked into the rain curtain.

Sarina watched his back for a moment, thought for a while, and couldn't help but nod slightly, feeling that he handled matters crisply and without any unnecessary words.

——Jiuyao indeed underestimated him.

Wu Xiaode turned a street corner, maintaining his pace, and after walking for a while, he slowly stopped.

On the street ahead.

A staggering figure looked towards him.

This figure had a human-like appearance, but its expression was frantic and hysterical.

——This was a bloodthirsty mutated human.

Suddenly——

It abruptly sped up, instantly crossing the long street, opening its bloody mouth to bite Wu Xiaode.

Pa.

Wu Xiaode held his left hand with fingers together as a palm, turning it into a hand blade, gently slicing into its chest, blocking its charge.

Dragon Snake Dance·Snake Block!

A bolt of lightning fell from the sky, instantly piercing through the mutated human's body.

It turned into a pile of char and fell to the ground motionless.

Lines of small text appeared in the void:

"You have cleared one stage."

Wu Xiaode glanced at it, his face expressionless.

——Back when designing "Accommodation Plan for Two Worlds People" for Festos and Sarina, he had exhausted his brain setting up a position for Festos.

When arranging for Sarina, this Holy Avatar, he laid down more lines.

For example——

In such a checkpoint clearing situation, there is actually a way to help Sarina fast-track through the stages.

She will definitely discover it.

Wu Xiaode shook his head and walked deeper into the rain.

On the other side.

Sarina had killed several more mutated humans, her eyes fell towards the void.

She saw two lines of small text appear:

"You have altogether cleared 30 stages, triggering special rewards:"

"Now you can summon more already employed comrades to fight, each cleared stage counts as three stages."

Sarina thought it seemed very worthwhile at first glance.

"Summon... all mysterious life already employed in the Death World."

She spoke.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

No one came.

——The summoning is a mutual choice, apart from Wu Xiaode and his two subordinates, no one else came to help.
