Chapter 104: Gains
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The people guarding the secret base were all martial artists.
In other words, the weakest person was in the ninth-grade.
This was a good thing for Su Jingxing, who had destroyed the base.
Previously, Su Jingxing had extracted several hundred cards from the tragic incident at Cloud Sea Square. When unlocked he got either the Strength Pills or the Essence Energy Pills.
Currently, what he didn’t lack the most were Essence Energy Pills and Strength Pills.
He had accumulated more than two thousand of the latter, allowing Su Jingxing to transform into the Demonic Elephant Physique twice.
Therefore, what Su Jingxing lacked was a True Energy Card, or at least an Internal Force Card.
The people guarding the base were all martial artists. The chances of extracting these two cards were undoubtedly at the highest.
And that was indeed the case.
Su Jingxing checked all the cards. It was a pretty good harvest.
Needless to say, the four Bloodline Cards came from Shi Jinchuan, Shi Jinzhou and the others.
Unlocking them would give a special bloodline, the Three Yin Candle Blood.
There were three True Energy Cards, with six years of cultivation, ten years of cultivation, and seven years of cultivation respectively.
Out of the three Skill Cards, two of them were blade techniques that the Shi family had given them to the guards to practice, but only half of the content was available. Su Jingxing put them aside.
The key was the third Skill Card, a secret ability!
That’s right, this Skill Card came from the fourth-grade Guardian, Tang Wulin.
The old fellow’s high-frequency sound wave attack was quite terrifying. If Su Jingxing’s physical body wasn’t at the limits of the human body, the outcome of this operation might have been severely discounted.
It would be a lie to say that Su Jingxing was not covetous of this secret ability.
However, it was unrealistic to learn it secretly.
But now, the cheat ability had actually extracted this secret ability. Su Jingxing was overjoyed.
The cultivation of the remaining Internal Force Cards added up to more than 210 years.
Transformed it into true energy, it would be two years.
Not bad.
Of course, Su Jingxing didn’t unlock them immediately and be in a hurry to do the conversion.
Instead, he first circulated the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven to recover the true energy he had expended on the journey.
When he fought against Tang Wulin previously, Su Jingxing had used two True Energy Cards, which had eight years of cultivation and seven years of cultivation respectively.
Under normal circumstances, these two True Energy Cards could allow Su Jingxing to increase his cultivation by 15 years after he unlocks, absorbs and transforms them into Heaven Trampling True Energy.
However, in order to replenish his depleted true energy then, his cultivation only increased by ten years after the absorption.
This meant that five years of cultivation was wasted due to the replenishment!
At that point, he was in a hurry to replenish his energy. He had no choice but to do so now. Naturally, Su Jingxing was not willing to waste any more now.
It took him more than an hour to recover his true energy.
At this time, if his mastery of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven technique had reached the seventh or eighth level, this duration would be even shorter.
After his true energy was restored, Su Jingxing unlocked the Internal Force Cards one by one and accumulated a hundred years’ worth of cultivation before transforming them into a year of Heaven Trampling True Energy cultivation.
He kept the remaining cards. 200 years of internal force cultivation had become two years of Heaven Trampling True Energy cultivation.
In other words, Su Jingxing’s true energy cultivation had reached 72 years.
He kept three True Energy Cards as spares.
The four Bloodline Cards containing the Three Yin Candles Blood were naturally unlocked. He obtained four blood pearls and fed them to Thunderbolt.
With every blood pearl given, the patterns on the surface of Thunderbolt would brighten further.
“I wonder how much this fellow needs to be fed before it can fully recover…”
Su Jingxing fiddled with Thunderbolt and murmured.
The power of a spirit weapon was recognized since ancient times.
For example, Su Jingxing would not have been in such a sorry state if he had the aid of Thunderbolt during this destruction of the Shi Family’s secret base.
Unfortunately, it was unknown how long it would take before the Thunderbolt would completely recover.
Perhaps even if all the members of the Shi Family were wiped out, and the Three Yin Candles Blood obtained from unlocking the Bloodline Cards extracted were fed to Thunderbolt, it still might not recover completely.
It couldn’t be helped. Thunderbolt had been dormant for too long.
Before it was dug out by Zhang Shanfu’s grandfather from the fish belly, no one knew how long it had been wandering.
A hundred years? A thousand years?
Su Jingxing didn’t know.
All he could do was keep feeding it.
A deranged martial arts family like the Shi Family deserved to die.
Using their blood to feed Thunderbolt was making good use of waste materials.
Of course.
Dealing with the Shi Family, could only be done in secret.
Su Jingxing was a lone wolf to begin with. If he were to continue acting recklessly, he, a sixth-grade martial artist with the combat ability of fourth-grade, would most likely be killed by the Shi Family midway.
It couldn’t be helped. The Shi Family’s foundation and background was too deep and powerful. Tang Wulin was definitely not the only fourth-grade martial artist.
In every realm, there was a difference in strength.
Both were fourth-grade martial artists, but could Tang Wulin compare to Li Linzhou?
No!
If no one in the Shi Family was stronger than Tang Wulin, would Tang Wulin obediently help them guard this base outside the city?
That didn’t make sense!
Tang Wulin was no fool.
Therefore, the Shi Family certainly had more than one fourth-grade martial artists, and the others were even stronger.
He still had to take his time dealing with the Shi Family.
For example, creating a wave of public opinion attack!
There was a ready-made case. Girls born during a Yin hour of a Yin day of a Yin month of a Yin year!
Of course, before taking action, he had to confirm if Gu Duoduo and the rest had gone home.
Before they did, he couldn’t take action for the time being, in case the Shi Family turned desperate and wanted to intercept them on their way back to the city.
…
The wait was not long.
The next afternoon, Su Jingxing, who was moving corpses in the crematorium, suddenly heard a commotion outside.
“What has happened this time?” Kong Dabao smacked his lips.
“It seems to be a good thing.” Su Jingxing listened for a while and replied, “Big Brother Dabao, shall we go out and take a look after we’re done moving this corpse?”
“No rush.”
Kong Dabao put down the cart and said in all seriousness, “We can move corpses any time, but we cannot slack on the safety of the crematorium for even a moment. As a part of the crematorium, what we need to do is to eliminate any threats at the first moment!”
Kong Dabao winked. “Am I right, Little Su?”
“Yes, Big Brother Dabao is very right.” Su Jingxing cooperated.
“Then what are we waiting for!”
With a wave of his hand, Kong Dabao hurried outside.
Su Jingxing held back his laughter and followed behind.
As an official employee, there was nothing wrong with slacking off during work hours.
Even though Su Jingxing already knew what happened.
Cough! Cough!
That’s right, the noise was brought by Gu Bo. Gu Duoduo had returned!
The crematorium staff had helped him previously. Gu Bo was very grateful for everyone’s kind intentions even though they didn’t do much.
Hence, he specially invited everyone to a hotel for dinner while he would have the share of those on duty packed and delivered to the dormitory.
Everyone was very happy that Gu Duoduo was back, but refused the dinner.
Su Jingxing refused as well and tried to get information about the rest of the girls from him.
He learned that most of the girls had been sent back to their respective cities, and those whose homes were further away were temporarily staying at the headquarters of Qinghe City’s Martial Suppression Office.
Su Jingxing heaved a sigh of relief.
With this matter settled, they could launch an attack using public opinion on the Shi Family tonight!
Su Jingxing didn’t have concrete evidence, but he had seen too many such instances of directing discussions on Earth.
Not to mention, there were people like Gu Duoduo and the others who had real encounters.
Su Jingxing had only posted two articles with striking headlines before he hacked into all the local forums, social spaces, and communication systems in Qinghe City. With just a little guidance, the entire city was in an uproar!
