Zhou You turned his gaze away from the panel. His personal profile had been significantly reduced, but its value had increased considerably.

"The Chronicles of the Mortal World" is the prototype of the martial arts technique deduced by Zhou You.

He treats the world he inhabits as a game, with this mindset at its core. He integrates his own style into his martial arts combat, making the world his stage and everything else a part of the drama.

All the events that unfold in the mortal world are driven by contradictions and are logical. By grasping the core of the driving force, one can see through the ins and outs from a single clue, and even foresee the future and anticipate the enemy's moves.

Does it look familiar?

The Great Conquest Robbery Technique evolved from the "Hundred Battles Survival Chapter," combining martial arts with military strategy, achieving a similar effect through different means.

However, Zhou You innovated, believing that fighting and killing was too narrow a scope. He argued that the evolution of all things in the world could be incorporated into the storyline, and that the four characters "Red Dust Romance" could encompass the past and present, and no one could escape its influence.

This martial art was in its early stages, and Zhou You's ambition was evident even from its name.

He wanted to become a supreme martial artist, unparalleled in history, not following the path of his predecessors, and breaking through to the Martial Saint realm on his own.

Zhou You had already thought it through; the title "Martial Saint of the Mortal World" was perfect!

The Great Martial Saint is also good.

The three secret techniques are: "Swiping the Spear and Wiping the Sword, Chanting Along the Long River", "Ruyi Bingji, Calming the Chaos", and "The Invincible Mindset".

The combined attack of spear and sword, integrating the essence of the Zhenbei Ge and Tiannan Shenjian, after reaching its pinnacle, is upgraded to the Long River Chant of Wiping the Spear and Sword.

Both the Black Cloud Spear and the Zhenbei Halberd represent the pinnacle of skill in long weapons.

There's also swordsmanship learned from etiquette, which incorporates the concept of "the sword is all-powerful" from the Tiannan Divine Sword, making swordsmanship a major trump card for Zhou You.

Even his personal guards thought that Zhou You was only good at marksmanship and that his sword was just for decoration.

Outsiders all believed that Zhou You, as one of the nominal disciples of the Tiannan Divine Sword, was essentially the same as the other disciples, and that the Tiannan Divine Sword was using this as a means to win over the sons of powerful families.

In fact, Zhou You's swordsmanship was as swift as his spear skills.

His few sword strikes were always devastating, defeating his enemies in a single, swift move, demonstrating remarkable skill.

The ultimate technique of combining spear and sword allows them to fight on equal terms against enemies who are a level above them, without being at a disadvantage.

The upgraded version of "Fuqiang Shijian Changhe Yin" (抚枪拭剑长河吟) seems to have a light and free-spirited name, but in reality, it has a higher purpose and a more distant realm.

Facing the mighty river of history, with no rivals in any direction, one can't help but touch one's spear and sword, lamenting that one was born at the wrong time.

This is an attitude of wanting to be invincible throughout history.

Then the second type... combined with the Ruyi Shuangjue (a set of martial arts techniques) and the Bingji (a martial arts course) course, and with the style of 'random attacks', the Ruyi Bingji Dingluan Jue (a martial arts technique for calming chaos) was created.

As you wish, as you desire, you can act freely and decisively, embodying the essence of the art of military combat through a chaotic and unpredictable style.

Besides his exceptional skills in spear and sword techniques, Zhou You is also proficient in hammer, knife, and staff techniques, among others, and is highly skilled in each.

The weapon strike technique in the Thirteen Forms of the Martial Saint originated from the wooden sticks of primitive tribes. However, as it evolved, anything that could draw blood in battle became a weapon, and the weapon strike technique became increasingly repeated and profound.

Previously, Zhou You had personally witnessed the Great Gentleman use the "Great Nine Heavens Disarming Sacred Method" and comprehended the profound mystery of weapon attack.

He summarized what he had learned and formulated a path that was both profound and complex.

Wiping the spear and wiping the sword while chanting "The Long River Resounds" combines the strongest skills of both hands into one, creating the most powerful killing move.

However, other skills cannot be abandoned. Various weapon fighting techniques are incorporated into the "random fighting" hodgepodge, with the concept of "weapon fighting class" as the general framework.

Therefore, this second move, though seemingly complex, actually leads to the same goal through different paths, directly reaching the profound mysteries of warfare.

As the saying goes, if you are not bound by the appearance of a divine weapon, you can wield it with great power even if you are just holding a brick.

The phrase "calm the chaos" truly reveals the purpose of this move. It may seem like a chaotic attack, but in reality, it is meant to "calm" the enemy's disorder.

The final state of mind of being invincible, to be precise, should be described as a superposition state.

The invincible mindset of the Martial Saint of Myriad Manifestations permeated his entire life. From a humble elephant slave to a martial saint who was both praised and criticized, he made mistakes, but in the martial arts world, he was always the 'Martial Saint of Myriad Manifestations' who was invincible from the start.

Many people have entered the 'Di Di Zong Family' in the North and gained some meager rewards, but Zhou You is certain that the invincible state of mind he gained is the most precious.

Those inherited techniques and martial saint secrets are all minor details. This invincible state of mind, which is rare throughout history, is the fundamental reason for the title of Martial Saint and God of War.

Mindset, beliefs, courage, and will—these thoughts and ideas rooted deep in the spirit, though intangible, truly influence the cultivation and performance of martial arts skills.

Since he began practicing boxing, Zhou You has been invincible in every fight, which is quite similar to the mindset of the Martial Saint of All Things.

He also fought against the projections of the Myriad Martial Saints of various ages beneath the Earth Sect's ruins, glimpsing a trace of the mystery of his state of mind.

That is, this invincible state of mind is a support skill, which can make one stronger when facing stronger opponents and unleash power beyond one's own limits.

After organizing and absorbing this knowledge, Zhou You created this "Invincible Mindset" technique.

With this mindset that I am the most invincible in the world, I dare to challenge the number one in the world even if I only have a straw stick.

These three skills were just a small test, and also a summary of past experience.

Of course, both the techniques and skills are still in their infancy and require a great deal of effort and time to perfect.

Zhou You is certain that as his skill level improves and his horizons broaden, he will encounter more and stronger enemies. Through real combat experience and rigorous training in boxing, he will further develop his own unique style.

The situation is still far from peaceful. The Ten Demons of the Southeast have suffered heavy losses, but they are still fighting against the Hundred Sects Alliance. One after another, the great demons are killing people everywhere to stabilize the crumbling battle line.

One wave subsides only for another to rise, and the problems in several southeastern states have come to an end.

However, another messenger arrived from the southern border to deliver a message.

“Recently, there have been hundreds of uninvited guests attempting to enter southern Xinjiang in just one month.”

"Moreover, over 90% of them pass through Li Huo Prefecture. Lord Shen sent a letter to inform us that this matter may be manipulated behind the scenes by treacherous officials using troops. Governor of Li Huo Prefecture should be extra careful."

"This matter involves a grand conspiracy by the demon race. If they succeed, the entire southern half of the country will be plunged into calamity."

"Keep an eye on a tiger demon recently. Its strength is above the Heavenly Sect level. It is very likely that it has broken into the Southern Frontier from Li Huo Prefecture."
