Holy Fist!

Thick black smoke rose continuously.

"Not bad."

Bai Xiao nodded, satisfied.

In front of his eyes, lines of black information quickly flashed by.

[Your skill "Evil Eagle Fist Spear", experience +3200!]

[Skill "Evil Eagle Fist Spear Entry", upgraded to "Perfection"!]

The enhancement of the Battle Divine Power was also upgraded along with it. The Evil Eagle Fist Spear thoroughly reached perfection, achieving the level of Second-class Peak Secret Martial Arts.

Bai Xiao took a deep breath, walked straight out of the wooden tub, and quickly took a cold shower. Then he picked up a few Qi Blood Pills to replenish his body's energy.

Next, he sat cross-legged on a cushion beside the wooden table.

After some breathing exercises, he was back to his peak state.

On the table, there was a jar of sticky black ointment, emitting a cool and peculiar aroma, somewhat reminiscent of medicated oil. It was for cultivating the Thousand Mountain Crane Beak Hand, the Snake Crane Ointment, as the name suggests.

He applied it all over his palms, then circulated his energy to absorb the medicinal power.

On the other side were dozens of golden pills used for cultivating the Golden Roc Nine Ruptures. They didn't have a strange smell but rather a sweet taste, like candy wrapped in a layer of gold foil.

Fei Peng Pill, a major Qi-Blood elixir.

Bai Xiao slowly closed his eyes, constantly reviewing the contents of these two Secret Martial Skills in his mind, letting them become second nature before beginning to improve.

"Shua!"

His eyes sparkled as he looked ahead.

[Skill: Thousand Mountain Crane Beak Hand Entry (1/400)]+

[Skill: Golden Roc Nine Ruptures Entry (1/400)]+

"Keep going!"

Bai Xiao focused his thoughts, his will steadfast.

More than half an hour passed.

It was past eleven o'clock at night in the Medicine Bath Room.

His whole upper body was naked, with exaggerated muscles piled across his body, as if he was wearing a heavy, sinister metal armor.

Especially his arms, which had a slight yellowish tint, and seemed to have overlapping crane feathers on the surface. When waved, they bumped into each other, producing a crisp metallic sound. With a clang, the air in the room frenziedly danced, as if a massive crane wing was tearing through space.

Bai Xiao's right arm bones crackled, ready to produce this sound nine times. The Golden Roc Nine Ruptures, as the name implies, could cause nine fissures.

Anyone hit by it would have their body disintegrate, their Qi dispersed, suffering miserably.

He exhaled slowly, the strength in his arms dissipating, concentrating the Qi in his hands. His hands danced skillfully, creating overlapping, dense handprints like a crane's beak.

He thrusted a palm forward.

All the handprints overlapped, like the shadow of a thousand mountains, delivering a fierce strike!

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Bai Xiao withdrew his power at the last moment.

Otherwise, the whole Medicine Bath Room, along with the Meditation Dojo, would have been blown apart by him.

"These three offensive Secret Martial Arts all have the ferocity of raptors, with an extremely aggressive intent. Indeed, they are most suitable for enhancement and fusion by the King of Forbidden..."

Bai Xiao muttered to himself, calmly looking ahead.

[Your skill "Thousand Mountain Crane Beak Hand", experience +3200!]

[Skill "Thousand Mountain Crane Beak Hand Entry", upgraded to "Perfection"!]

[Your skill "Golden Roc Nine Ruptures", experience +3200!]

[Skill "Golden Roc Nine Ruptures Entry", upgraded to "Perfection"!]

He silently glanced at his Dark Red Modifier.

[Dark Red Modifier]

[Potential Points: 221.2]

With more than two hundred potential points left, there was nothing to fear.

Half an hour later.

Bai Xiao quickly replenished his body's energy, mentally digesting the many insights and experiences regarding these three Second-class Secret Martial Arts. At this moment, he seemed like he had mastered these Martial Skills for decades, reaching a level of consummate skill.

At twelve o'clock at night.

Bai Xiao walked out of the Medicine Bath Room and the Dojo.

He came to an open space, stood in a pavilion, and quietly looked at the pitch-black night sky. The cold moonlight spilled into the courtyard.

Like white frost.

The changes in the four-dimensional attributes had already appeared on his retina.

[Strength: 188.6→198.7]

[Speed: 164.9→171.3]

[Physique: 192.4→200.0]

[Will: 191.1→197.0]

Strength +10.1, Speed +6.4, Physique +7.6, Will +5.9.

His Strength Attribute increased by a full ten points, yet it was not Bai Xiao's highest attribute. For his Physique Attribute had already broken the two hundred mark!

The other attributes also showed significant growth.

Bai Xiao's Strength and Will attributes were both nearing two hundred.

He sensed slightly, finding no limit like the one at one hundred forty points. Clearly, the level of a sect leader had a wide span, and Bai Xiao had not yet reached the physical limit! At the Peak Faction Master level, he had already begun to touch Martial Arts Will, evolving toward the Grandmaster rank. His entire life level would undergo a transformation.

"Hoo..."

Bai Xiao felt the immense power within him, the fullness of Qi and blood in his limbs and bones, surging and powerful, as if he could move a mountain with a slight wave of his arm.

"Then the next step is skill fusion."

He voiced a low cry in his heart and decisively activated the Professional Enhancement Ability.

"King of Forbidden!"

Instantly, a series of black text flowed down.

[Here is a list of skills eligible for skill fusion]

[Skill: Evil Eagle Fist Spear Perfection (∞/∞)]

[Skill: Thousand Mountain Crane Beak Hand Perfection (∞/∞)]

[Skill: Golden Roc Nine Ruptures Perfection (∞/∞)]

"Give me a half-step Taboo."

"To supplement my offensive combat means."

"King of Forbidden, I'm counting on you!"

Bai Xiao's mind surged with excitement, his thoughts intensely strong.

"Begin skill fusion!"

"Add in Shocking Wisdom!"

Instantly, a rotating and hazy light wheel appeared before him. Its massive form almost enveloped the entire courtyard in front of him.

At the corner of his eye, the Martial Arts Master profession slightly flickered, the interface blinking.

The Shocking Wisdom ability surged forth, merging into the light wheel.

In an instant, a mysterious and forbidden aura was rapidly catalyzed. A large amount of understanding and perception of cultivation techniques in Bai Xiao's mind was dragged out, like soybeans, falling onto the grinding disc of the light wheel.

"Crack crack crack crack..."

Instantly, all the experience and Martial Arts were shredded into pieces by the King of Forbidden. The dross turned into flying ashes and scattered, while the essence grew brighter and hotter. The essence of the three Secret Martial Arts quickly fused, eventually becoming as dazzling as a sun.

"Buzz..."

Bai Xiao's brain buzzed, and the three Secret Martial Arts vanished.

Transforming into a half-step Taboo, suspended in mid-air.
