After finding an inn to stay, Li Xuanxiao opened the two Source Realm Martial Arts books.
After quickly flipping through them from beginning to end, the System light screen immediately popped up!
[Martial Art Recorded — Mystic - Immortal Vortex Saber Art!]
[Martial Art Recorded — Evading leaves Movement Technique!]
Without the slightest hesitation, he directly invested Demon value Points to advance them.
[Consuming 80000 Demon value Points, Mystic - Immortal Vortex Saber Art has reached first glimpse!]
[Consuming 160000 Demon value Points, Mystic - Immortal Vortex Saber Art has stepped into Minor Achievement Realm!]
[Consuming 400000 Demon value Points, Mystic - Immortal Vortex Saber Art has stepped into Major Achievement Realm!]
[Insufficient Demon value Points!]
[Consuming 80000 Demon value Points, Evading leaves Movement Technique has reached first glimpse!]
[Consuming 160000 Demon value Points, Evading leaves Movement Technique has stepped into Minor Achievement Realm!]
880,000 Demon value Points was instantly consumed: one of the two Source Realm Martial Arts reached Major Achievement, and the other reached Minor Achievement.
Li Xuanxiao casually recalled Mirage Shadow Blade and Myriad Moon Shadows, and the System returned 100,000 Demon value Points.
He opened the updated System Panel:
[Host: Li Xuanxiao]
[Realm: Origin Realm Peak]
[Cultivation Technique:
Origin - Origin Tracing Martial Art (Perfection), Mahayana Origin Scripture (Transcendent)]

[Demon value Points: 160000]
"The two Origin Realm Cultivation Techniques serve as the foundation for my True Essence and three Source Realm Martial Arts serve as means to deal with opponents. Buddhist Dharma, orthodox Martial Arts, movement techniques—everything is complete! I can advance to attack, retreat to defend, and even fight prolonged battles..."
Li Xuanxiao stroked his chin: "With this level, winning even ten matches shouldn't be a problem!"
He had observed for a long time from the stands yesterday; most Human Race contestants, although possessing Origin Realm Cultivation Techniques, mostly used Mystic Realm Martial Arts.
Even those who had complete Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts rarely had high levels for their Martial Arts—at most, just the introductory level.
After all, they didn't have a cheat System. Cultivation required careful allocation of time and energy.
Energy was mainly focused on improving the Cultivation Technique, which naturally slowed down progress in Martial Arts, and vice versa.
It was unlike him; as long as he had Demon Points, none of that was an issue.
After careful consideration, Li Xuanxiao felt much more confident.
In the Lawless Land, he was absolutely among the top tier below the Qian Realm!
As long as he knew when to stop, there shouldn't be any major problems!
"Tomorrow, tomorrow I'll go participate in the Deathmatch Arena and strive for a double harvest of Spirit Crystals and Demon value Points!"
Li Xuanxiao murmured, his expression firm.
...
Chu Yin and Wu Jiangming walked through the Underground Black Market, both frowning at the pungent, bloody aura.
As they walked along, although there were malicious gazes sweeping over them,
The moment Chu Yin agitated his late-stage Origin Realm True Essence, most of those gazes would disappear.
Late-stage Origin Realm already counted as being among the powerful tier.
These raiding gangs also needed to consider cost-effectiveness and casualty ratios.
Compared to gnawing on hard bones, newcomers who looked around curiously like Li Xuanxiao were much more popular.
"Chu Yin, how much further until we arrive?"
The Fat Daoist Wu Jiangming was panting slightly. He was naturally a homebody; he would never stand if he could sit, and never sit if he could lie down.
If it weren't for the extremely long and boring wait for the cloud top immortal boat, he wouldn't have agreed to follow Chu Yin to wander around the Underground Black Market.
Chu Yin took out a rough map of the Underground Black Market: "Soon, we'll see the Central Plaza."
Wu Jiangming wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! This walk is going to cost this Daoist his life."
Chu Yin, however, didn't feel tired at all; instead, his expression was full of anticipation: "I've long heard of the Black Market Arena and never had the chance to see it. This is a good chance during the wait for the Immortal Boat to see what level of people these desperados in the Lawless Land are!"
Just then, several figures emerged from a street corner, blocking the path of the two.
There were Humans and Demons, all looking hostile.
"Two young brothers, our group is a bit short on funds recently. How about lending us some Spirit Crystals to spend, eh? ~"
The leader had a frivolous look and didn't seem to take Chu Yin and Wu Jiangming seriously at all.
Chu Yin snorted coldly and swiftly drew his sword: "Just based on you guys?"
The Fat Daoist Wu Jiangming stepped forward: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! May all you worthy friends listen to my words!"
With a loud shout, he halted both parties.
Wu Jiangming continued: "I have calculated through divination; all you worthy friends today are destined to suffer a bloody disaster!"
The blocking group of people and demons became furious: "Stinking Daoist, you dare curse us?"
They immediately rushed forward, unleashing all their Martial Arts and Demonic Techniques toward Wu Jiangming.
Although Wu Jiangming was fat, his body was unusually agile. With one roll, he hid behind Chu Yin.
"Brother Chu, save me!"
Chu Yin's mouth twitched... You brat, showing off first and then hiding behind me, right?
Feeling exasperated internally, he didn't waste any words and directly engaged the group of people and demons!
As his True Essence surged, his late-stage Origin Realm cultivation was fully revealed, and the Martial Arts he displayed were also extraordinarily profound.
They faintly carried the intent of the Origin!
After a few rounds, although the road-robbing side had more numbers, they couldn't gain any real advantage.
The Martial Arts they practiced were only at the Mystic Realm level.
What Chu Yin displayed were genuine Origin Realm Martial Arts!
Even if they were only at the introductory level, they were much stronger than Mystic Realm ones!
Wu Jiangming clapped his hands from the side, cheering: "Brother Chu is mighty! Facing many alone, yet not losing ground!"
Chu Yin's lips curved slightly, but the road-robbing side was starting to break down: "Stinking Daoist, shut your stinking mouth!"
Wu Jiangming, however, was completely unconcerned: "If you're trash, you're trash, and you won't even let people say it?"
This lighthearted remark made the road-robbing side's veins bulge, wishing they could hack Wu Jiangming to death with a thousand cuts.
Naturally, Chu Yin wouldn't give them that chance. He unleashed his Source Realm Martial Arts again, forcing them to deal with it with all their might.
Wu Jiangming quietly retreated behind Chu Yin and took out the eight trigrams plate from his sleeve.
"Qian Kun Yi, Eight Trigrams Open, Formation Activate!"
Buzz—
After a faint humming sound, the eight trigrams plate suddenly grew larger, enveloping everyone above their heads.
The road-robbing side inwardly thought, 'This is bad!'
One Chu Yin had already made them frantic. They thought this stinking Daoist was just a sidekick, but when he unleashed his Daoist magic, he actually possessed considerable might!
A desire to retreat began to sprout in their hearts.
On the eight trigrams plate, True Essence flowed along specific meridians.
The runes instantly lit up, transforming into a powerful force that shot directly toward the road-robbing side.
The few people and demons scattered and fled, but to their horror, they found they couldn't escape the area covered by the eight trigrams plate!
A trapping Formation!?
However, their doubts were destined to remain unanswered.
Divine light attacked from all directions...
A short while later, everything returned to calm.
Wu Jiangming rummaged through the corpses and found over a hundred thousand Spirit Crystals, grinning so widely his mouth couldn't close.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, robbing and plundering truly is the shortcut to getting rich ~"
Chu Yin was stunned watching from the side. This fellow was clearly a descendant of the Daoist school, so why was his corpse-looting technique so practiced?
After finishing the collection, Wu Jiangming generously took out half and tossed it to Chu Yin.
"Brother Chu, the entrance ticket is on me! ~"
