My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences-Chapter 99 - The Poison Path

99 The Poison Path

Every day, Qin Huai would go back and forth between the dojo, the inventory office, and the deep mountains on time. 𝙛𝒓𝚎𝙚w𝑒𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝚎l. cｏ𝙢

The first was to gain experience from the long breath technique. Although the disciples of the dojo were busy killing demons in the forest all day long, they would not forget to cultivate every time they came back.

Moreover, ever since they entered the mountains to eliminate the demon, the cultivation of the dojo’s junior brothers and sisters had been more and more progressive.

Among them, there was no lack of credit for Qin Huai’s extreme pressure.

!!

He also exchanged for some paperweight talismans, mysterious natural jade bracelets, and other treasures that could increase the speed of cultivation, which were all burned by Qin Huai.

After Gao Cheng’s death, Qin Huai’s efficiency in eliminating demons returned to normal, and he once again topped the list on the third day.

As for Cai Jiulou’s ranking, Qin Huai had not seen it. In any case, it wasn’t as high as his.

On the third day, Bai Bashan, who had entered the mountain to look for her, had yet to return. There were even rumors in the city that Bai Bashan had been attacked by a powerful demon and died in the mountain.

Five days passed…

Even the masters of the city lord’s mansion and several major martial arts centers believed the rumor and went into the mountains to search.

On the seventh day, Bai Bashan quietly returned to the Thunderbolt Dojo. His expression was still as calm as water, unmoving as a mountain. However, everyone in the city could see that his black hair had turned white.

Qin Huai’s expression did not change, but the sense of urgency to improve his strength grew stronger.

He and Bai Bashan… Or rather, the battle between the Changshan Dojo and the Thunderbolt Dojo would come one day. At that time, it would definitely be a life-and-death struggle to destroy each other’s dojo.

He didn’t even have the strength to fight a sixth refinement martial artist.

“Let’s hope that the great war will happen after the great wave of demons and monsters,” Qin Huai mumbled. Then, he turned around and once again threw himself into the deep mountains.

…

Thunderbolt Dojo

Bai Bashan, whose hair was all white, sat in the main hall in a daze. His eyes were looking out of the window listlessly.

“I’ve warned Yusheng not to touch the Sacred Heart sect’s cultivation method. That kind of unorthodox method will kill her one day… But she didn’t listen…”

At the side, Reihom was the only one standing. He silently listened to his master’s mumbling until the voice fell silent.

Then, he knelt in front of Bai Bashan and kowtowed three times. He immediately stood up and walked toward the door.

He would make the thunder gong resound throughout Pingnan and make sure that the people of Sacred Heart sect would never dare to appear in front of him again.

“Let’s first win in the grand martial competition and see if it can make Master feel better,” Reihom muttered to himself in a low voice. It was as if he was choosing a gift for his master.

…

On the tenth day, the paperweight talismans and precious jade true crystals that could increase cultivation speed were removed from the demon judgment board’s exchange points.

The reason was simple. Because they were so popular, they were all replaced in just ten days.

This was especially true for Qin Huai, who had taken up one-third of the share all by himself. This made the military officer who was in charge of the exchange points unable to smile whenever he saw Qin Huai.

For the next month, Qin Huai’s demon-slaying speed began to gradually slow down as time passed. It wasn’t because Qin Huai couldn’t make it anymore, but because the demons around Pingnan seemed to have been almost killed.

Seven to eight hundred demons charged into the city one after another.

It didn’t have the kind of overwhelming and suffocating aura. Therefore, it did not cause much of an impact on Pingnan. Most of them were killed by the martial artists of the eight major martial arts centers in the mountains and snow.

On the other hand, Qin Huai changed his strategy and added all his free experience points to the breathing technique.

That was because he had weighed his options. Compared to betting on the reaction of the long breath technique and the breakthrough of the rumbling thunder skill… He might as well increase the realm of his long breath technique to increase his benefits.

But of course, the rumbling thunder skill and the long breath technique were only one level apart. The speed of breaking through to the rumbling thunder skill would not be much faster than the breathing technique.

As for the breathing technique, Qin Huai’s cultivation progress was once again hindered because the dojo had lost many people in the demon-slaying mission. Because of the strong sense of danger, Qin Huai was forced to change his strategy.

…

In the Drunken Immortal restaurant, Cai Jiulou drank gloomily.

On the grayish-yellow goatskin paper in his hand was that month’s demon judgment board.

The first place was occupied by Qin Huai’s huge name, and the 200 points behind it were double his 100 points. It was just like the first day of the demon slayers list.

Not far away, Qin Huai and Qi Yangbing were sitting together with a few young men from the military camp who had made a name for themselves in the demon judgment board competition.

The alliance between the seven major dojos, the Changshan dojo, and the city lord’s mansion was still not strong. The only reason why those parties could safely enjoy their wine in the restaurant was because of Qi Yangbing, who had a wide range of friends.

“Although the eight martial arts centers have achieved remarkable results in killing the demons, they have also suffered great casualties.

“Master Sun ordered people to do the accounting. A total of 112 martial artists from the eight martial arts centers died,” the one-eyed Sun Yeniu said in a low voice.

He was Sun Tong’s nephew, and also a member of the tiger Battalion of the iron armored army, which was stationed at the foot of Mount Bailiu. At the same time, he was also an advocate of Qin Huai’s combat techniques.

“It’s equivalent to losing a dojo.” When Qi Yangbing heard this number, he was rather depressed. “Although the casualty ratio between us and the demons is one to seven, which can be considered an outstanding battle result, the martial artists in Pingnan City are limited after all. They are not as powerful and bottomless as the great wave of demons.”

Sun Yeniu said in a low voice, “Therefore, I propose to promote Master Qin’s combat techniques to the military and major dojos. It’ll definitely greatly reduce the number of casualties.”

Qi Yangbing waved his hand. “Don’t underestimate the poison path. This is also a path that depends on talent. You can’t use the poison in your hand to display its power.”
