Chapter 124: Chapter 116: Superior Martial Skills, Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Golden Bell Shield (Three more updates of ten thousand words, seeking subscriptions!)_1
Chen Yu's expression was intense, and as soon as his words fell, he initiated the assault without hesitation or delay.
Boom!
Amid the thunderous sound of wind and thunder between heaven and earth, Chen Yu, with his exceptional skill and courage, leapt from the city wall in one bound, landing outside the city to face a multitude of demon sect warriors alone.
"Impressive courage!"
Even though they were enemies, the six warriors of the Demon Sect at the Gang Qi Stage couldn't help but admire Chen Yu's bravery; he dared to take on six by himself.
One must know that they were all formidable figures who had reached the external Gang Qi!
Boom!
As both sides' attacks collided, Chen Yu's clothes snapped in the wind as he drifted back. Facing six opponents, he was astonishingly unharmed.
"It really is an extraordinary Gangqi, Wei Jiang didn't deceive us!" an elder of the Holy Shadows Sect said, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
"Chen Yu, would you like to join our sect?" a black-robed elder of the Holy Shadows Sect asked.
Clearly, he recognized Chen Yu's exceptional strength and talent and thus entertained the idea of recruiting him.
"With your talent, after joining our sect, with the aid of demon ghosts of the evil grade, combined, you will soar in prowess. Perhaps in the future, you might even peep at the position of a Great Master in the Innate Realm!" He tempted Chen Yu earnestly and intelligently, inducing him with sentiment and logic to join the Six Union God Sect.
"I would never wish to become something that is neither human nor ghost," Chen Yu said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, the faces of the Demon Sect members darkened instantly, as they could not fail to perceive the sarcasm in Chen Yu's remark.
"Don't you wish for longevity? You should know that even a Great Master of the Martial Dao in the Innate Realm lives only slightly over two hundred years. But if you merge with a demon ghost of the evil grade, your lifespan could reach a thousand years!"
"Enough talk, vile heretics deserve death. Die!"
Chen Yu's eyes were icily determined, with undisguised murderous intent. He had nothing to say to these demon sect members who had obliterated their humanity—only killing could stop them.
"Obstinate fool!"
The elder of the Holy Shadows Sect shouted, a trace of black qi flashing in his pupils. With one hand forming seals and the other pointing towards Chen Yu from a distance, he cast a spell.
"Soul Extinguishing Skill!"
Instantly, Chen Yu felt darkness before his eyes, and his mind was wracked with intense pain, as if a large hand was tearing at his soul.
That was the martial art of the Holy Shadows Sect, extremely sinister and elusive.
But at that moment, Gangqi surged within Chen Yu's body, and the sounds of wind and thunder resounded within him. An unstoppable force flowed inside him, and two sharp lights flashed in his eyes, restoring his composure.
"Die!"
Chen Yu's eyes were fiercely determined as he extended a finger. From the tip of his finger, a five-colored dragon-shaped energy the size of a zhang burst forth, lifelike and wrapped in thunderous light, with an astonishing presence.
Seeing this, the elder of the Holy Shadows Sect stood his ground, his gaze slightly lowered, but behind him, a warrior of the Gang Qi Stage from the Red Flame Demon Sect appeared in a flash by his side and fiercely struck out with his palm.
"Flaming Demon Palm!"
Boom! Flames roared from his body, forming a vast demon shadow which surged towards Chen Yu's Startled Dragon Finger.
Thump!
In the clash, the warrior was forced back a dozen steps, clearly at a disadvantage.
Whoosh, whoosh!
At that moment, Cui Yu and Deng Zi An also leaped down from the city gate, joining Chen Yu to confront the members of the Demon Sect.
"You all retreat first." The six warriors of the Demon Sect at the Gang Qi Stage waved their hands, signaling the people behind them to move further away.
When warriors at the Gang Qi Stage fought, the destruction they caused was unimaginable.
There were six of them, and the Jing Tian Department had only three, which meant they had to face two opponents each.
"It's been a long time since I've felt this boiling blood," Cui Yu said, laughing loudly.
Seeing this, Xu Qing suggested, "Let's find a place to rest for the night. With our speed, we should be able to reach there by noon tomorrow."
"Okay."
Gu Chen glanced at Song Yu and Wang Yan's pale faces and nodded. A great battle might await them upon returning to the county city, and if it continued like this, Song Yu and Wang Yan might truly be unable to hold on.
After all, they were only at the early stage of the Gang Qi Stage, and it was already extraordinary that they had managed to endure until now.
In the end, Gu Chen and his companions decided to spend the night in the wilderness.
Deep in the night, all was silent, and the stars shone brightly. Song Yu and Wang Yan had already fallen into deep sleep. Xu Qing sat not far away, honing his inner breath, striving to step into the Gang Qi Stage as soon as possible.
Seeing this, Gu Chen's gaze softened, and with a thought, he called up his character panel.

Martial Skills: Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Horizontal Training (complete, can be deduced), Burning Vein Finger (complete), Phantom Traceless Step (complete), Astonishing Swan Swordsmanship Skills (complete), Golden Bell Shield (complete, can be deduced), Great Vajra Fist (entry-level), Condensing Pulse Sword Wave (entry-level)
Inner Energy Cultivation: Pure Yang Wuji Gong
Cultivation Years: Three hundred fifty-four
Stage: Late stage of the outside Qi boundary
Martial Points: 118
At this moment, just the martial arts listed on Gu Chen's panel, if spoken of, were enough to shock countless people.
With the exception of the Great Vajra Fist and Condensing Pulse Sword Wave, all martial arts, without exception, had reached the realm of completion!
Looking at the martial points on his panel, this time Gu Chen did not choose to increase his cultivation but instead, with a thought, opted to deduce his martial arts first.
Because Gu Chen wanted to see if the combination of the superior martial arts Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Horizontal Training and Golden Bell Shield could give birth to a Superior Martial Skill.
He had seen the power of the Superior Martial Skills unleashed by Chen Yu; they were far more powerful than superior martial arts.
But the Superior Martial Skills of the Jing Tian Department were too expensive, and with his merits, it was difficult for him to exchange for them.
Moreover, the martial arts deduced from the panel, in terms of depth and complexity, were in some aspects even more profound than some of the martial arts within the Jing Tian Department.
"Panel, deduce!"
As Gu Chen's thought moved, the words representing Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Horizontal Training and Golden Bell Shield on the panel immediately blurred, and the martial arts experiences related to them surged directly from the depths of Gu Chen's mind, constantly merging and combining. Amidst the burst of inspiration, countless new martial experiences appeared.
Both of these techniques were superior martial arts, with vast martial knowledge blending in Gu Chen's mind. He felt a headache swelling.
Gu Chen felt as if he had gained a vast amount of martial insights out of thin air, with new insights continually emerging, as if he were in the midst of an epiphany that many warriors would struggle to experience once in a lifetime.
Time passed, and what seemed like an instant, or perhaps several hours, this round of martial arts deduction finally concluded.
At this moment, with a thought from Gu Chen, he glanced at the panel and saw that a new martial arts titled "Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Golden Bell Shield" had appeared in his field of view.
Feeling the related martial information in his mind, its complexity and profundity vastly surpassed that of both Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Horizontal Training and Golden Bell Shield by countless times; they were not on the same level at all.
A smile appeared in Gu Chen's eyes, knowing that this time the panel had indeed not disappointed his expectations.
Superior Martial Skill, achieved!
At this point, Gu Chen also noticed the martial points below had significantly decreased by forty points compared to before!
"To deduce a Superior Martial Skill, it actually requires the consumption of so many martial points?" Gu Chen was astonished. To know, initially deducing Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Horizontal Training had only cost him eighteen martial points.
The martial points consumed to deduce a Superior Martial Skill were more than double that of superior martial arts.
"I want to see the incredible aspects of a Superior Martial Skill."
Gu Chen silently thought "upgrade," and the newly appeared martial art titled "Dragon Roar Tiger Howl Golden Bell Shield" on the panel immediately went from being nonexistent to having reached the realm of initial understanding.
