Rise to God with Life Skill Professions-Chapter 420 - 410: Deduction, Liu Yi Returns Again

Chapter 420: Chapter 410: Deduction, Liu Yi Returns Again

"Spirituality?"

Qin An sensed the special change within and raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a look of surprise.

He lifted his hand to grasp the hilt of the Cold Star Saber, channeling the eight-colored true essence within him into the blade, instantly feeling a distinct difference from before.

The fifteenth-level blacksmith has the function of nurturing and imparting spirituality, coupled with Qin An’s day and night forging of the Cold Star, requiring recasting every time he advances as a blacksmith.

The spirituality within the Cold Star had already accumulated significantly.

And after this recasting, the spirituality seemed to have reached a limit, able to recognize him as if it was enveloping him with a warm touch.

Qin An was moved and then released his right hand fingers, and the Cold Star actually floated in mid-air, trembling slightly.

"Is this the spirituality driving the blade?"

Qin An saw the situation before his eyes and, with the talent of a fifteenth-level blacksmith, immediately understood the meaning behind it.

The spirituality was magnified to an extreme, completely giving birth to consciousness.

And now this consciousness was already able to manipulate the Cold Star, letting it attack autonomously, and even perform the Seven Star Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber technique.

Qin An pondered for a moment, and was moved, communicating with this spirituality.

The moment he communicated with the spirituality, the Cold Star attacked in mid-air, executing the blade skills of the Seven Star Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber.

Not only that, but the blade of the Cold Star also contained eight-colored true essence, seemingly identical to Qin An’s attack.

Seeing this anomaly, Qin An’s eyes widened slightly, the corners of his mouth lifting uncontrollably: "If that’s the case, I can perform the blade skills while my fists unleash in succession, performing the Seven-Star Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand."

Previously, upon executing the blade skills, if faced with a situation he couldn’t break through, he would have to return the saber to its sheath before performing the blood-burning technique.

If not returning to the sheath, he could only perform the Seven-Star Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand with his left hand.

But now it was completely different.

Qin An not only could perform fist techniques with both fists, but also communicate with the spirituality within the Cold Star’s blade, letting the blade itself perform the Seven Star Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber.

It could even exhibit the power of Three Blades Unite.

For Qin An, this was a huge boost, whether in terms of combat power or foundation it was immensely powerful.

If engaged in combat with someone and clearly at a disadvantage, needing to use the Seven-Star Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand, with Cold Star as an auxiliary attack technique, it could drive the opponent into despair.

Qin An beckoned slightly, and the Cold Star, as if receiving guidance, instantly returned to the sheath at his waist.

Looking at the slightly resonating Cold Star, the corners of Qin An’s mouth lifted higher.

Suppressing the joy at heart, he left the blacksmith shop.

...

When he returned to the Evil Extermination Bureau, the night was growing deeper.

Qin An didn’t return to his room, instead, he went to the Confidential Library and found two cultivation techniques.

After exchanging them at the Prefecture Officer, he returned to his residence.

The oil lamp was lit, and the fire burned brightly.

The flickering lamp shadows dappled Qin An’s face, making it look extremely stern.

Qin An placed the two books on the table and randomly opened one of them.

This was a book on blade skills, also with a dark attribute.

The cultivation techniques in Xunyang Prefecture’s Confidential Library were complete, even extremely rare ones could be found.

Therefore, finding a dark attribute blade skill was as easy as pie for Qin An.

The blade skill was named Dark Transformation Wind Snow Blade, when executed, true essence could transform into a shadow attribute, forming a blade curtain that blots out the sky and covers the sun.

It could erode others’ minds and obscure the enemy’s vision.

Qin An perused it in detail, after a moment, he had fully comprehended the Dark Transformation Wind Snow Blade.

Without further ado, he drew the Cold Star at his waist, executing it in the room according to the moves of the Dark Transformation Wind Snow Blade.

The blade light seemed like shadows, as if the wind and snow filled the sky.

After a moment, Qin An sheathed the saber.

A line of text appeared before his eyes, twisting like snakes in mid-air.

[You’ve performed the Dark Transformation Wind Snow Blade, triggering the Butcher’s talent]

[Dark Transformation Wind Snow Blade (Perfection)]

In just an instant, relying on the top-tier butcher profession, Qin An immediately cultivated the Dark Transformation Wind Snow Blade to the level of Inner God Realm Perfection.

But for Qin An, it was still far from enough.

Qin An changed the blade move, once more performing the Seven Star Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber.

When the Seven Star Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber was executed by Qin An, the text before his eyes seemed to be scattered by a fierce wind, quickly dispersing and then reformed into new text.

[You possess both the Seven Star Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber and Dark Transformation Wind Snow Blade, and want to merge the two into one, but lacking talent, the fusion failed]

"Fusion failed? That’s impossible."

Qin An shook his head, continuing to perform the Seven Star Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber.

The four monster souls contained within him could now forcibly break through to the next level.

The increasing danger, Qin An would never hold back for no reason.

When facing a formidable enemy and not having the means to counter, only to lose his life in vain, that would be the greatest injustice.

Then, Qin An mobilized one monster soul, burning it madly.

After burning the monster soul, the text before him dissipated like smoke, instantly reforming into new text.

[You intend to burn your internal vitality, performing crazy deductions, yet lacking talent, even burning a large amount of vitality, you only comprehended a trace]

[Unwilling in your heart, you continue to burn your internal vitality, and after burning a large amount of vitality, your enlightenment gradually expanded, finally gaining insight]

[You have named the new cultivation technique Eight Extremes Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber]

[Eight Extremes Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber (Initial Mastery)]

"Boom!"

A violent booming sound echoed in his mind, text turning into a large amount of smoke, like an ocean, flooding into Qin An’s mind.

Qin An felt a slight heaviness in his mind, but fortunately, it only lasted for a breath before disappearing instantly.

At this moment, Qin An had fully mastered the Eight Extremes Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber at the level of Unity Realm Initial Mastery.

Upon reaching Unity Realm Initial Mastery, the power of Three Blades Unite still existed, but compared to the Inner God Realm, they were worlds apart.

Not only that, but the Eight Extremes Ruthless Blood Transformation Saber possessed eight attributes: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and dark.

When performed, if the Eight-Colored True Essence from the Bodhi Golden Dragon Eight Extremes Art is also invoked, the attributes will be greatly enhanced, making the blade skill even more terrifying.

"Next... fist technique."

Qin An took out another fist technique and weighed it in his hand.

This fist technique was quite interesting, named Shadow Grinding Fist.

When performed, it transforms into dark attribute true essence, eroding one’s own will.

After the corrosion, people become extremely frenzied, greatly enhancing their strength, essentially a fist technique that concentrates secret techniques into one.

Qin An was very interested in this fist technique, eager to know what would happen after the fusion.

After fully mastering the Shadow Demon Fist, he raised his left fist and executed the fist moves according to the Shadow Demon Fist style.

Every punch carried a dark attribute covering the fist.

As the fist roared, Qin An felt his will gradually sinking, but his fist technique became even fiercer.

Fortunately, Qin An only practiced it once and quickly retracted the fist moves.

Lines of text floated before him, hovering in the void.

[You have cultivated the Shadow Demon Fist, triggering the corresponding talent]

[Shadow Demon Fist (Perfection)]

A vast amount of information surged into Qin An’s mind like a tidal wave.

In an instant, Qin An had fully mastered the Shadow Demon Fist.

But Qin An felt it was still far from enough.

He now had three demon souls, enough to perform a fusion.

Thinking of this, Qin An turned his head to cultivate the Seven-Star Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand.

Before him, the smoke twisted like a snake.

[You possess the Seven-Star Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand and the Shadow Demon Fist, intending to merge the two into one, but unfortunately, the talent is insufficient, and the fusion failed]

[Faced with the imminent danger, you burn the blood and Qi within your body]

[After a large amount of blood and Qi burns, you finally have an epiphany]

[You name the new cultivation technique Eight Extremes Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand]

[Eight Extremes Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand (Initial Mastery)]

A vast amount of information surged into Qin An’s mind, and after closing his eyes in contemplation, he had fully grasped all the information of the Eight Extremes Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand.

"This is indeed a major improvement."

After the Eight Extremes Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand was enhanced to the Unity Realm initial mastery, it not only possessed the Blood Burning Power but also the effect of burning will from the Shadow Demon Fist.

However, relying on the Blood Burning Power, the Eight Extremes Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand managed to completely erase the side effects of burning will.

After Qin An executed the secret technique, the intensity it unleashed was twice as strong as before.

"This secret technique can serve as my ultimate trump card."

Qin An clenched his fist, looking at the Eight-Colored True Essence flowing over his fist, he thought to himself: "The endless power of attack is already in place, but the body technique and defense method have yet to reach the Unity Realm initial mastery."

"What I need to do now is first enhance both the defense and body techniques to the Unity Realm initial mastery level."

Thinking of this, Qin An planned to first cultivate the defense technique.

The cultivation of the defense technique requires the use of the healer profession, and since it was already late, he planned to do it tomorrow.

But just then, footsteps sounded from outside, interrupting Qin An’s thoughts.

At this moment, it was deep into the night, and although Qin An was very renowned in Xunyang Prefecture, all the prefecture generals knew Qin An’s character and would definitely not disturb him at this time.

Therefore, Qin An guessed the identity of the visitor.

As the visitor entered the courtyard, Qin An could already clearly determine the visitor’s identity from the sound of the footsteps.

The door was pushed open from outside.

Liu Yi waltzed into the room as if she was acquainted, sat across Qin An, and poured herself a cup of tea to drink.

Qin An said, "Are you ready?"

Over two months ago, Liu Yi came to Qin An, saying she wanted to execute a heart demon mission with him.

To carry out a heart demon mission, preparations must be made in advance.

Now that Liu Yi had returned, Qin An guessed she must have completed the preparations.

Sure enough, when Qin An spoke these words, Liu Yi nodded affirmatively, her face full of excitement.

"The preparations are complete. We will set off overnight and can reach the heart demon force’s location in a few days to uproot it."

When saying this, Liu Yi was extremely excited.

Even with her lively personality, she could not conceal it.

This was actually quite normal, as all the Mountain Patrol Generals in Xunyang Prefecture wanted to advance to the level of Mountain Patrol Golden General.

That represented the pinnacle of Xunyang Prefecture and meant climbing to its highest peak on this path.

Even Liu Yi could not resist such temptation.

"Depart overnight?"

Qin An rubbed his chin and nodded, saying, "Okay, let’s depart overnight."

As a veteran Mountain Patrol Silver General, Liu Yi naturally knew the importance of conserving energy.

But now that Liu Yi had made this request, Qin An did not refuse.

He also wanted to complete it earlier and gain achievements soon.

After all, it cost a demon soul’s worth to enhance a cultivation technique to the Unity Realm level.

He now had only two demon souls left.

If all were used to enhance cultivation techniques, the underlying potential of the Eight Extremes Blood-Burning Demon-Sealing Hand could not be wielded.

The two said no more, then went to the prefecture officer station to get two batches of fast horses, disappearing into the night from Xunyang Prefecture.

As the two left Xunyang Prefecture, many prefecture generals were busy in the courtyard.

Seeing Qin An and Liu Yi leave Xunyang Prefecture, they displayed expressions of surprise.

Whispers started to echo in Xunyang Prefecture.

"Mr. Qin has stayed in the Evil Extermination Bureau for over two months, and today he’s finally going out."

"I wonder which pseudo-god of the demon clan will be eradicated by Mr. Qin."

"I think Mr. Qin going out this time will certainly stir up a storm."

The conversations among the numerous prefecture generals grew louder, with many even planning to go to the Music Bureau overnight for an in-depth discussion.

...

The moonlight shone, covering the entire official road.

Qin An and Liu Yi hurried towards the heart demon force’s location.

There was no time for rest along the way.

After changing several fast horses continuously and traveling day and night, they finally stopped at a vast mountain range.

The mountain range was extremely expansive, and its end was nowhere in sight, exuding a wildly primitive aesthetic.

Liu Yi turned her head and said, "Qin An, there is something I need to tell you, there is actually a county here."
