Celestial Demon Starting from Attribute Points-Chapter 56: Assault on the Mountain

In the secret chamber of the Cao Mansion.

Li Xuan once again cut open his arm, letting the magic blood drip into the basin, then reached out his hand to slowly touch the magic blood.

This time, an unprecedented anomaly appeared.

A line of blue text frame emerged in Li Xuan’s eyes:

————Adapted Secret Martial Arts Found————

’Adapted?’

Li Xuan’s eyes lit up. These two words appearing again confirmed that the "Tiger Flute Sword" could indeed achieve balance with the "Fire Cloud Hand."

Without hesitation, he pressed down his hand, the blood converging and climbing up along the palm’s texture and into the pores as if alive.

...

...

In a blink, another ten days passed.

When Li Xuan opened his eyes again, the Secret Martial Arts of the "Tiger Flute Sword" was completed.

Unexpectedly, the additional Spirit bonus provided by the [Aberrant Monster Monkey (Young Demon)] decreased from 16 points to 14, but the Demon Skill was unaffected.

Strength attribute and Constitution Attribute increased by 5 points, while Agility Attribute broke a limit, transforming to "[Agility: 36/36]."

The new line of information in the [Secret Martial Arts] list was somewhat different from the previous one.

Second: Dusk Flame Earth Fire Pill Root Map (LV1), Noon Mass Pastures Cowboy Root Map (LV1).

The difference is that the newly emerged "Noon Mass Pastures Cowboy Root Map (LV1)" did not occupy a separate line but directly appeared after the "Dusk Flame Earth Fire Pill Root Map (LV1)."

Li Xuan contemplated slightly and understood.

If it’s adapted, it appears in the same line.

From now on, if he finds a Grandmaster-level Cultivation Technique that adapts with the "Melted Copper Treasure Manual," new root maps will emerge after the "Melted Copper Hell Little Ghost Root Map (LV1)" too.

Otherwise, it will occupy another line.

Does this mean he can gather Grandmaster Cultivation Techniques as much as possible, practice them all, and then use magic blood to experiment with each?

If an adaptation is found, practice it; if not, set it aside temporarily.

Setting aside distractions temporarily, Li Xuan studied that "Noon Mass Pastures Cowboy Root Map."

Bright and dazzling daylight, a vast field of wheat, a cowboy playing a flute while sitting backward on a wild boar with golden yellow mane.

The cowboy leisurely, the flute sound leisurely, Li Xuan just imagined it felt a sense of leisure.

But amidst this leisure, it was as if a master had entered a higher realm. Though seemingly indifferent, situated within his surroundings, he could quickly detect and react to any change.

Li Xuan slightly moved with intent, suddenly rushing forward, scooping a handful of water from the water tank and tossing it to the sky.

The handful of water scattered into numerous droplets in the air.

Li Xuan closed his eyes, identified sounds, and struck with a sword.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

Sword light swirling, blood air steaming.

In another instant, he slowly withdrew his sword.

Upon inspection, the area around the water tank showed no signs of dampness; all the water droplets were captured by him and returned to the tank.

Still, this kind of self-verification couldn’t be thorough, probably needing a real battle to showcase its power. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Interestingly, Li Xuan knew his Cultivation Technique was fully mastered, at least far faster than Su Cangyuan’s when he drew his sword before.

But thinking again, Su Cangyuan’s attributes were indeed much lower, how could he have the speed?

Moments later...

Li Xuan took a deep breath, feeling the changes in his body and mind.

Inside his abdomen, he felt the same persistent hunger, and his whole body felt persistently tired.

Yet the extreme sensation in his mind had diminished considerably.

He tossed a leftover dan fish into his mouth while contemplating this difference.

Moments later, he concluded: Compared to practicing only one Secret Martial Art, the severity was slightly more, but much weakened compared to practicing two Secret Martial Arts due to achieved balance between the two adapted Secret Martial Arts.

The current level was completely acceptable for him.

Li Xuan glanced at his current attribute state:

[Strength: 30/30]

[Agility: 36/36]

[Constitution: 25/30]

[Spirit: 10/30]

’With these attributes, it’s good even without using magic blood.’

’It’s time to attack Luoshi Sect.’

He was about to step out of the secret chamber when suddenly halted.

Because he suddenly recalled something.

Perhaps Su Cangyuan never intended to seriously teach Lin Jieniu. Otherwise, he should have taught Lin Jieniu the "Tiger Flute Sword" and let him visualize "Noon Mass Pastures Cowboy Root Map." Although this root map would also bring extreme temperament, it’s much better than that of "Love-Soul Departing Hooks."

Su Cangyuan’s true purpose was to experiment because he might have discovered the balance between the two Cultivation Techniques by chance and wanted to find someone to test if any two different nature Cultivation Techniques could adapt.

As for his other four disciples, some might be test subjects, and some were genuinely taught Cultivation Techniques just yet not cultivated "Fire Cloud Hand," given too few disciples simultaneously reaching upper-level innate talents.

Li Xuan sighed gently, shaking his head.

He needn’t do these; he simply cultivates those Cultivation Techniques and then tests with magic blood to immediately know which are adapted and which aren’t.

Then, he opened the mechanism and stepped out of the secret chamber.

...

...

Days later.

Cao Shuda personally led two thousand nine hundred mansion soldiers, accompanying Li Xuan, leaving the west gate of the Hundred Flowers Mansion, heading straight northwest to Luoshi Sect.

Previously, there were three thousand five hundred soldiers, but during road sealing this time, Cao Shuda deployed four hundred soldiers to ensure nothing could go wrong, sealing off all directions.

Furthermore, two hundred soldiers died during previous internal conflicts, some killed by Mr. Su, some by Cao Shuda, others by evil spirits.

Very soon...

The group reunited with one hundred soldiers sealing the southern route.

However, Cao Shuda didn’t approach immediately; instead, he glanced at the elder beside him.

Li Xuan nodded to him.

Cao Shuda, eyes serious, watched the front vigilantly and shouted, "Cut your arm to prove innocence!"

As soon as his words fell, the cavalry behind him directly bent bows, assigned arrows, and fire arrows.

The bow strings creaked, creating tense and explosive atmosphere.

Among the hundred people, more than ninety decisively cut their arms, while a few suddenly swung knives to cut those around them.

But Li Xuan had been watching and directly rushed out without waiting for archers’ reaction.

Like lightning, he stormed ahead, sword leaving the scabbard like wind, swiftly slashing through winding around those attempting success to decapitate them.

The reason for using a sword: one, it provides a positive image; two, concealment of moves, which probably was Mr. Su’s intention too.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Those heads flew up with the sword light.

Looking, the neck showed no blood but rotting flesh - truly evil spirits!

Other soldiers rushed directly toward Cao Shuda’s group.

Cao Shuda, concerned about hitting Li Xuan, hurriedly waved: "Don’t shoot! Don’t shoot!"

But Li Xuan said, "No need to worry."

Cao Shuda blinked, knowing he had confidence, then waved and shouted, "Shoot!"

As soon as the words fell, fire arrows shot in unison pinning the remaining cavalry who refused to cut their arms proving innocence, into beehives collapsing on the ground, separating body from the head, yet couldn’t evade.

Meanwhile in everyone’s eyes, Mr. Su astonishingly dodged and relocated left and right, leisurely avoided all arrows without turning back.

This scene certainly shocked and impressed everyone, etching deeply into minds, and cavalrymen puzzled by Li Xuan’s tactics were convinced.

As the group regrouped and resumed northward, Cao Shuda reflected to the elder beside him, saying, "Last time not knowing how to differentiate evil spirits, we suffered quite losses."
