Kill Me More Times, I’ll Become Invincible

"You’re actually reading a history book?" Qiao Mu looked at the heavy tome in his hand, surprised, and glanced at Clairvoyance.

The old man with only half a face from the arsenal explained:

"This warehouse in the military camp is not only an armory, but also a library."

"In addition to the history of this city, there are also the histories of Great Yan and even the previous dynasties. These books were collected before the city was surrounded."

"No, what surprised me is that you, a Tide Listening Building storyteller, entered the armory to read history? Don’t you find this full collection of martial arts enticing?" Qiao Mu was very surprised.

Although Tide Listening Building is aloof, it is also a force in the martial arts world.

And this extraordinary armory in the isolated city was established by Li Changge and contains the secret collection of martial arts techniques from the remnants of the 100,000 soldiers of Great Yan.

This armory can be regarded as a youthful version of the Wuji Association armory of the Martial Saint.

The concept of the Martial Saint transcends prejudice and can be said to have originated from here.

Of course, the martial arts techniques included in this armory are ancient methods from the previous generation of martial artists forty years ago.

The Martial Saint later became famous in the world of martial arts, and created a modern method that was incomparable to the weapons arsenal of this lonely city.

A storyteller from the Tide Listening Building entered the weapons arsenal, expecting to read about martial arts, but ended up reading history instead.

Clairvoyance smiled softly.

"Elder Lao, I am a storyteller, actually part of the ‘Fantastic Faction’ in the Tide Listening Building."

"And since I entered this city, I realized that ‘real stories’ are not lacking. They have a magical power that touches people’s hearts more than fictional wonders."

As one of the main pillars of the Fantastic Faction, Clairvoyance excelled at creating sensational stories, the more outlandish the better.

"Not to brag, but as a storyteller for many years, I still have some craftsmanship."

"Stories like the Top Ten Terrible Trouser Accidents, The Ten Scandalous Tales of Martial Arts World, and the Scholar who Stumbled into a Village of Daughters…"

"How to create sensational stories, how to come up with unexpected yet plausible tales, I have experience in this matter."

"With this skill, I joined the Tide Listening Building and became somewhat famous in the martial arts world over the years."

Clairvoyance looked at the thick book in his hand, and his tone became unintentionally heavy.

"But reality is different."

Creating sensational stories can easily captivate attention, but it lacks truth.

Clairvoyance flipped through the pages of the book.

"During this dynasty, with this solitary city, we resisted the inhuman threat in the desert for forty years. And in previous dynasties, although there was no unprecedented threat like the inhumans, we still had barbarians causing trouble at the borders and soldiers fighting to the death."

"The storytelling skills I possess are no match for the ‘reality’."

"As a storyteller, I already know enough about martial arts. Whether I look at the martial arts in this arsenal or not, it doesn’t matter. But when it comes to the historical facts recorded in these books, I feel like I still don’t understand enough."

Qiao Mu slightly changed his opinion, wondering where that unruly demeanor of the storyteller went when he was in front of Captain Hai?

While the two people were talking, the old man in the library came and put the total of nine books on spiritual refining in front of Qiao Mu.

There are nine secret books, and Qiao Mu can exchange them for preaching the "Xumi Mountain King Sutra".

However, at this moment, Clairvoyance, who was reading next to them, interrupted:

"Elder Lao’s main cultivation techniques for refining strength are the ‘Long Life Fist Sutra’ and the ‘Pure Yang Wuji Skill’, both of which are top-notch advanced skills."

"But if you want to choose the Spiritual Refining Technique, it’s actually best not to practice other techniques."

"It is said that the ‘Long Life Fist Sutra’ was taught to the ancestors of the Qiao Family in Heyang City by an immortal they encountered in the mountains. It seems to have a background in a certain Immortal Gate. The internal strength cultivated from it is balanced and can be practiced together with other techniques."

"But the ‘Pure Yang Wuji Skill’, the signature skill of Wudang, is a pure yang attribute technique. If you casually choose other Spiritual Refining Techniques to practice together, the internal strength may become mixed, and there is a risk of losing control." Clairvoyance explained.

During the martial arts performance in the military camp, Lu Yanbei himself revealed the truth that Qiao Mu was not actually practicing spiritual refining, indicating that he was on a different path. So Clairvoyance also knew it very well.

"I understand," Qiao Mu thought to himself that he actually knew this point very well, so now he was focusing on how to take advantage of Earth Sword Immortal and obtain the second half of the "Pure Yang Wuji Skill".

The Spiritual Refining Technique in this library is not bad, but it can’t compare to the outstanding martial arts of Wudang. I came here just to try my luck and have a backup plan.

"Since that’s the case, Elder Lao might consider choosing this book, Military Martial Arts Classic," suggested the old man in the library.

"This technique is not only the Spiritual Refining Technique but also includes many martial arts moves, such as Military Spear Skill, swordsmanship, archery, and other battlefield weapon techniques, as well as strategies for battles."

"Even without using the Spiritual Refining Technique, the martial arts moves recorded in it are enough to be of great use."

Speaking of this, a sad expression appeared on the old man’s remaining eye.

"This book was compiled by my elder brother, Li Changge, over the past twenty years. It is not just about martial arts but an attempt to create a comprehensive martial arts that combines military skills and principles."

"This library was built under the supervision of my elder brother, General Li Changge, with the intention of allowing the remaining soldiers after the Inhuman War to contribute their martial arts techniques and share them with each other, so as to enhance their martial skills."

"But he was too naive. In the past twenty years, we’ve faced too many obstacles…"

"Even with Li Changge leading the way, those skilled soldiers in the army, even if they knew they would die, were unwilling to contribute their own martial arts or the ones they learned from their masters."

The barrier is not easily broken, even at the moment of death.

The so-called 1,000 ounces of gold cannot buy friendship, it can only be given freely on the street corner.

The "way" that one personally possesses, the martial arts that sustain and define oneself, will never be leaked for any amount of money.

"Only a few people answered the call in the first ten years, but later there were too many deaths… The remaining skilled soldiers gradually let it go." The old man with half of his face looked at the books in the library and said:

"And so, the library was filled with these books."

"But in the following years, problems kept coming one after another."

"The abilities of the remaining soldiers and the young men in the city varied, and those who entered the martial arts library often chose the well-known techniques, such as the basic volume of the 8 other parts of the Spiritual Refining Technique. Progress was often slow."

"And so, Li Changge dedicated more than ten years of effort to create the ‘Military Martial Arts Classic’ and a secret technique within it called the ‘Military Spiritual Technique’."

"Military Spiritual Technique?" This name caught Qiao Mu’s attention.

"Li Changge, my older brother, is the founder of the book ‘Spiritual Technique.’ The title means connecting hearts through the spirit and seeks for couples to have a deep spiritual connection. Even if they are far apart, their hearts can still feel each other."

And ‘Military Spiritual Technique’ is a further development of ‘Spiritual Technique,’ which is a secret method of spiritual refining that even low-ranked martial artists can practice. It was created by Li Changge for the soldiers, aiming for a strong connection of hearts among them.

"With this ‘Military Spiritual Technique,’ the battle formations and combined attacks in the book ‘Military Martial Arts Classic’ can be effectively used."

The old man with half of his face was staring straight at Qiao Mu.

In fact, he highly recommended the book ‘Military Martial Arts Classic’ because he had his own hidden motives.

After Li Changge’s death, there was no capable general left in this lonely city who could lead the entire army and take on major responsibilities. Captain Hai is good, but only just enough.

Before Li Changge’s death, he went to seek the help of the Earth Sword Immortal in that city, but it seemed like the person wasn’t willing to take responsibility.

Elder Lao has already practiced the ‘Martial Saint Spiritual Technique,’ so it would be easy for him to learn the ‘Military Spiritual Technique.’ Storyteller Clairvoyance also chimed in from the side.

"Li Changge was also one of the outstanding former warriors of the imperial court, second only to the Martial Saint of the past. From his ability to create ‘Spiritual Technique’ and ‘Military Spiritual Technique,’ one can glimpse his talent and brilliance."

"The other eight Spiritual Refining Techniques may not be as good as Li Changge’s ‘Military Martial Arts Classic’."

Qiao Mu thought for a moment and decided to choose this one.

However, a thought crossed his mind.

When oranges grow in Huainan, they are called oranges; when oranges grow in Huaibei, they are called kumquats.

Starting with the couple’s telepathic technique as the foundation, Li Changge created the ‘Military Spiritual Technique’ for battle, while Martial Saint created the ‘Martial Saint Spiritual Technique’ that involved absorbing others’ achievements. They have already split into two distinct paths.

After choosing the secret manual, Qiao Mu stayed in the armory all night reading the book.

The next day, dawn arrived.

Qiao Mu spent half a day returning to the military camp in the city to explain the ‘Xumi Mountain King Sutra’ to the soldiers and answer any difficulties they encountered in their practice.

Qiao Mu’s foundation was solid, considering he had special abilities. He had already mastered the first five levels of the ‘Xumi Mountain King Sutra’, surpassing even Grandpa Hai Wuya. He was so familiar with the first five levels that he could effortlessly answer beginners’ questions.

The soldiers and civilians in the city were very interested in the book called "Xumi Mountain King Sutra," especially the elderly veterans who had retired from the battlefield.

Qiao Mu’s actions brought unprecedented prosperity to this lonely city after forty years.

Only Captain Hai, who knew the truth, sighed in his heart. He knew very well that this prosperity was mostly due to the news that Qiao Mu had brought about reinforcements from Great Yan, but it was just an illusion.

Over time, people will eventually start to suspect.

However, with only three hundred elderly soldiers left in the lonely city, it may not hold up until the people in the city start to doubt.

……………

In the afternoon.

After finishing his speech, Qiao Mu once again arrived at the residence of Earth Sword Immortal, in front of the old and dilapidated Taoist temple.

"To cater to their interests… it’s actually not that difficult," he muttered to himself.

"This Venereal Disease Sword Immortal, his lifelong passion is nothing more than that thing in his pants. If you want to trade for the ‘Pure Yang Wuji Skill,’ you simply need to offer something that will entice him, it’s very simple."

Qiao Mu lowered his head and glanced at the secret books in his hands. These were the ones he had transcribed in the library last night.

One part is a book called the "Xumi Mountain King Sutra," and the other part is… "Iron Crotch Skill"!
