Chapter 56

Zhao Beifeng shook his head, “I have been wandering around Jianghu for several years and have seen a lot of dishonest people. I have also encountered those who scheme against others and even mistreat or injure others for the martial arts secret book. Brother Chu…” He hesitated for a bit, “Anyways, I am going to be friends with you, Brother Chu.”

Then, he took out a golden card from his chest area and handed it to Chu Ge. “This is my name card. If you need my help in the future, you can send me a message through a pigeon.”

Chu Ge took a look at the name card and saw that the name Zhao Beifeng was written on it. Other than that, there was nothing special about it.

System Notice: The relationship between adventurer Zhao Beifeng and you have been upgraded from a general acquaintance to life-and-death friends.

Huh? There was even a friendship level? But what was the use of this thing? How could I send messages through flying pigeons when we are not from the same world?

However, it was not easy for him to ask in detail. He said in his heart that he would ask the system later when he returned home.

After putting away the name card and having enough rest, Zhao Beifeng couldn’t wait any longer as he walked up to Hu Yiba’s body to touch it.

“The Five Tigers Duan Sect Saber Dance, the Tiger Roaring Kung Fu, The Five Tigers Duan Sect Saber Dance, the Tiger Roaring Kung Fu! Just drop one of them for me,” Zhao Beifeng started saying to himself.

“What kind of inner cultivation is the Tiger Roaring Kung Fu?”

Zhao Beifeng nodded, “They are the two most famous martial arts of the Five Tigers Sect. One is the Five Tigers Duan Sect Saber Dance, and the other is the Tiger Roaring Kung Fu. Earlier, that Hu Yiba had used the Tiger Roaring Kung Fu. Although this inner cultivation is only a Jianghu level martial arts, it can greatly increase people’s martial power when they are dying. It is an excellent martial arts skill. I hope it will drop.”

With that, he touched the body.

Chu Ge was also quite excited when he heard this. If the Tiger Roaring Kung Fu dropped, he could trade his gun with Zhao Beifeng for it. He had just saved Zhao Beifeng’s life, so he should be able to exchange it. If not, Chu Ge could just add a few items.

System Notice: Zhao Beifeng picked up the Rebellious Hero Garment.

System Notice: Zhao Beifeng picked up the Nine-ringed Saber.

System Notice: Zhao Beifeng picked up the Tiger Tooth Necklace.

System Notice: Zhao Beifeng dissected the tiger and obtained tiger skin × 1, tiger bone × 3, tiger genital × 1.

Chu Ge listened to a series of system notices and felt bitterly disappointed. He thought in his heart that Zhao Beifeng had an unlucky hand. Not a single secret book had dropped.

Zhao Beifeng also had a look of helplessness. He could not help but sigh, then kick Hu Yiba’s body.

“There’s nothing I can do. It is very rare for secret books to drop. Earlier, the two of us had received a total of three secret books. This is already beyond normal.”

After listening to what Chu Ge said, Zhao Beifeng could only nod helplessly. From this point of view, his Floating Clouds Sword Technique was the best thing that this Instance Dungeon had dropped. However, he was still not satisfied. Without inner energy, it would be impossible to display the power of the Floating Clouds Sword Technique.

“By the way, Brother Zhao, do you want to exchange for my hidden weapon?”

Zhao Beifeng nodded, “Brother Chu is agreeing to it?”

Chu Ge sighed, “Yes, but I want to exchange two books, the hard Qigong and the Taizu Changquan. They are introductory level martial arts, so you have no use for them. Besides, I have to make it clear to you that the bullets in this hidden weapon have been used up. It will be complicated to make them.”

Zhao Beifeng said confidently, “Don’t worry, I naturally have an idea for this, but you have to add something else, or give me the rest of the poison.”

Chu Ge thought, why would he still haggle over little things when they had already become life-and-death friends? Or was this life-and-death friends just a statistical thing? However, Chu Ge was able to accept this kind of exchange. After all, the gun was useless without any bullets. Therefore, he exchanged his .54 caliber gun that had no bullets and Seras’ Venom for two martial arts secret books.

After Chu Ge received the secret books, he couldn’t wait any longer as he opened it to learn. Although these introductory level martial arts were not amazing, they did not have any learning conditions. This was a good thing.

[Hard Qigong (Introductory level martial arts/Mid-grade).

Basic mind method: Hard Qigong. Each level increases the limit of the inner energy by 20 points, reduces physical damage by two more points, and increases endurance by a small amount.

[Taizu Changquan (Introductory level martial arts/Low-grade)

Advanced Ability: None.

Ultimate Profound Skill: None.

Martial arts introduction: Boxing skill, which is widely known across Jianghu. It is said to have been created by Song Taizu; therefore, it is called Taizu Changquan.]

These two sets of martial arts were exceedingly terrible.

Chu Ge thought helplessly that they did not even have any advanced abilities. The so-called hard Qigong could only reduce physical damage by 20 points, even if it were trained to its highest level. A slightly sharp sword could cut through the techniques. They were even more useless when facing bullets. However, they were still better than nothing. At least Chu Ge could gain inner energy. If he learned the techniques well, he could at least be reluctantly regarded as a martial arts expert in reality.

“Now that things are done here, it’s time for us to go down the mountain.”

The two of them went back down the mountain road and arrived at the entrance of the Instance Dungeon. Zhao Beifeng cupped his hand at Chu Ge, “Our friendship is as steady as a mountain and as long as an ever-flowing river. Brother Chu, we will meet again someday.” Then Zhao Beifeing continued to walk down the mountain.

Although the invisible barrier like an air wall prevented Chu Ge from going down, it seemed to be utterly ineffective towards Zhao Beifeng. Seeing Zhao Beifeng’s figure gradually fade away, Chu Ge touched the area where the barrier was. He still wasn’t able to get through the barrier. He became very curious, as he did not know what the rest of the world looked like.

But soon he got rid of his curiosity, as he had one more thing to do.

Instead of leaving the Instance Dungeon, he returned up the mountain road that was filled with corpses—walking through this Instance Dungeon that had no one else present felt a little bit terrifying. Very soon, Cu Ge arrived at the prison where the Spider of Interchangeability was.

The prison remained the same, and the prisoners were still inside the cells. Chu Ge did not have a key, and it was impossible to destroy the scenes of this Instance Dungeon. Therefore, he had no confidence in saving the other three prisoners. Chu Ge went straight to the corpse of the Unknown Knight.

Resurrect the body! He concentrated his mind and suddenly raised his hand towards the corpse. The formerly lifeless corpse suddenly began to move.

Haha! Sure enough, resurrecting a corpse worked for this guy as well.

With excitement, Chu Ge controlled the corpse on the ground using his heart and had it walk to the cell door. Then, he lifted the magic. Without the magic, the Unknown Knight’s corpse fell to the ground again. However, the difference this time was that Chu Ge was able to touch the body, whereas earlier, it was too deep inside the cell. He reached through the iron bars and easily touched the corpse.

There was only one item on the corpse, which was a piece of paper.

[Martial Arts Book’s Scattered Pages (Perishable).

After Use: Allows you to gain 500 kung fu experience points immediately.

Item Introduction: It is a mystical item that has records of martial arts information and training methods that can quickly upgrade the level of martial arts skills.]

This item was pretty good. It seemed that a lot of the time spent on martial arts training could be saved. This was a pleasant surprise.

Chu Ge thought to himself as he turned around and left the Instance Dungeon.
