Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 98: Lin Family Exterminated
After saying this, the one-armed old man hurried away, running at an incredible speed.

Jiang Yue thought about it and quickly followed.

Tread-tap-

The two arrived at the entrance of Luo's Pharmacy and found that it was crowded. Master Lin was lying inside, with a beautiful woman guarding his body and crying. There were also many servants of the Lin family and several yamen runners beside them.

"The pharmacist is here, make way!"

The waiter shouted and the onlookers hurriedly made way.

The one-armed old man quickly stepped forward and observed Master Lin's injuries. He then took out a pill and fed it to Master Lin. He ordered the waiter to grind some medicinal herbs into powder, and then he took out a silver needle and quickly stabbed Master Lin with it.

Jiang Yue followed behind the old one-armed man and was stunned when he saw the miserable condition of Master Lin.

There was a huge five-finger scratch on Master Lin's chest and abdomen, which had completely cut through the membrane, allowing the wriggling internal organs to be seen inside.

Fortunately, Master Lin had practiced and passed three levels. He used his willpower to let the servants carry him all the way here. He did not dare to lean sideways at all for fear that his internal organs would spill out. That’s why he did not die suddenly and held on until the old one-armed man arrived.

"It looks like it was scratched by a human hand. The wound is not wide. I think he can survive."

Jiang Yue made his own judgment.

Sure enough, after the old one-armed man had been busy for a long time, the condition of the head of the Lin family improved a lot, and his pale cheeks had a little color.

After applying medicine powder, wrapping the wound with white cloth and removing the silver needle, the one-armed old man finally stood up.

"Carry it to the bed."

The old one-armed man warned, "For the next month, it is best to stay in bed and do not walk for more than half an hour a day. After a month, you can move slowly. Also, come and get the medicine tomorrow."

"Thank you, benefactor, thank you, benefactor!"

The beautiful woman kowtowed to the one-armed old man repeatedly, but was stopped by his men.

After a while, Master Lin was carried to the bed in the inner room.

"If you want to ask questions, you should ask them tomorrow."

The old one-armed man looked at the yamen runners nearby and said, "If you ask him now, he will be stimulated and his blood will surge up and he will die."

"it is good."

The yamen runners in Qingyang Town all knew that the old man with one arm was from the Luo family. They were all as obedient as mice seeing a cat. "What you said makes sense. The Lin family is in such a plight. Today, Master Lin and Madam Lin took a few servants out to do some work. When they came back, they found that all the family members were dead and they had met the murderer. We arrived in time, otherwise Master Lin's internal organs would have been dug out and eaten."

"His son died too?"

The old one-armed man asked.

"Yes, Master Lin is dead, and so are the concubines, and the other servants and maids."

The yamen runners said in a deep voice, "The death was very tragic, just like the yamen runner Sun who died a few days ago. His chest and abdomen were cut open and all his internal organs were eaten."

After hearing this, Jiang Yue became even more certain that the one who killed Sun Yat-sen and almost wiped out the Lin family was the hunchbacked, crawling humanoid monster that Captain Zhang had mentioned.

This kind of monster has appeared in Qingyang Town, and it kills people frequently!
"Is it related to the tiger? Is it a ghost? Is it here to take revenge on me?"

Jiang Yue thought of the dream he had that day, narrowed his eyes, and began to think.

In his previous life, the novels he read always showed that after the younger one was beaten, the older one came. So he beat the older one, so why did the younger one come to take revenge?

However, Jiang Yue was not afraid at all, and he already had a sense of arrogance in his heart that looked down on everything.

While Jiang Yue was thinking, the old one-armed man listened to the yamen runners' narration and ordered: "If this is the case, you should report it to the county government. Who knows what sect is causing trouble again."

"Yes, we will report to the county government right away."

Several yamen runners looked at each other and nodded.

After all, this is where he lives. Even Master Lin, who has broken through three levels, was almost killed. No one can guarantee if he will be the next one and whether he can withstand it.

We still have to report to the county government!
The bailiffs left in a hurry, not caring about the setting sun, and hurriedly took the official road to Qing County. The crowd of onlookers also dispersed, leaving only the beautiful woman in the inner room guarding Master Lin.

"Ji Lang, what do you think?"

The old one-armed man looked at Jiang Yue and asked.

Jiang Yue thought about it, and then told the one-armed old man again through the transmission of qi and blood what Captain Zhang had told him.

He also told the one-armed old man about his dreams.

"Oh?"

The old one-armed man heard a sound of surprise, stroked his beard, and guessed, "There are indeed powerful beings in the world who can enter dreams and send messages. Many Shinto monks can do this, but it is really strange that a tiger sent a message to you in your dream. Perhaps there is help from others."

"So, this dream is real?"

Jiang Yue blinked.

"Well, of course it's true."

The old one-armed man said in a deep voice: "That monster likes to eat human organs. It must be a ghost sent by the tiger. This thing has a keen sense and can see the strength of a person. It has a cat-like nature: it bullies the weak and fears the strong. It likes to play with prey that is weaker than it but interesting. If the ghost is in the initial stage, it can explain why it chose Sun Yat-senior and Mr. Lin."

"I see."

Jiang Yue nodded and said, "Since Menghu has sent out his minions, I guess I can't get away either."

"Yes."

The old one-armed man smiled and said, "Otherwise, why would he be so angry that he entered your dream? That Tiger Vanguard is the vanguard officer of the Beast God Cult. He was seriously injured and then fled here to recuperate. I guess the Beast God Cult is at war with another sect, and they need people right now, so it's normal that the tiger that threatens you can't leave."

"what?"

Listening to the analysis of the old one-armed man, Jiang Yue couldn't help but sigh: "Senior is amazing."

"What's so great about that?"

The old one-armed man waved his hand and said, "It's all just guesswork. Those who have committed crimes and apostasy have gone to hide in the mountains and forests. Who knows what they are doing in there?"

"Hahaha."

Jiang Yue laughed.
-
As the sun sets, smoke rises above Funiu Village.

The whole village was filled with the smell of bear meat, the aroma was so fragrant that it made people's mouths water.

As for Grandpa Jiang Yue’s family, they stewed big bluefish.

Without adding any seasoning, just ordinary salt, the big blue carp is cooked with a fresh fragrance, extremely delicious when eaten, and a wave of heat when swallowed into the stomach.

It was winter, and Jiang Yue, Jiang Cong, and Jiang Hao were sitting in the courtyard eating fish and drinking fish soup with their bare arms, yet they didn't feel the cold at all.

"This big black fish is really nutritious."

Jiang Yue suddenly thought of the conch he found in the belly of the giant black carp. After thinking about it, he thought that since this thing could make the giant black carp grow, it could probably also help warriors improve their strength.

So he simply threw it into an abandoned water tank in his home and filled it with water.

Tomorrow he will try the water in this tank to see if it has any special effects.

"Grandpa, Shilang, I put a conch in the water of that old water tank. Don't touch it, and don't drink the water in that tank."

Jiang Yue gave some instructions and then said, "Also, Silang, Grandpa, you should stay out of the house recently and don't go into the mountains. There are some unrests."

"it is good."

Silang is very well-behaved. He does whatever Jiang Yue says and he will strictly follow it.

Jiang Cong nodded and asked, "Is it about the Lin family and Short-haired Sun?"

"Ah."

Jiang Yue nodded without explaining too much, for fear of scaring his grandfather and Jiang Hao.

After the meal, Jiang Yue ate more than ten pounds of fish, but Silang and grandfather together did not eat more than one pound.

"It actually made me full. The big bluefish affected by the conch is truly miraculous."

Jiang Yue patted his stomach, a little surprised. Ever since he started practicing, his appetite has been getting bigger and bigger. Later, when he broke into the warrior level and achieved the Tiger Furnace, his appetite became even bigger and he had never been full.

Even if he ate twenty or thirty kilograms of bear meat, he would not be full because he digested and absorbed it too quickly.

But today's meal of fish and meat, more than ten pounds, was enough to fill him up.

This feeling of "fullness" does not come from the feeling of being unable to fill the stomach, but from the feeling of being full of qi and blood and being in a state of fullness that does not require replenishment.

"What exactly is a conch?"

Jiang Yue took a look at the conch in the tank and decided to try drinking the water before going into the mountains tomorrow. After saying goodbye to his grandfather, Jiang Yue took the hawk and dog home and prepared to strengthen his martial arts.

Seventy-seven years in one day is really a lot.

In fact, he could also keep bear meat, medicinal herbs and the like beside him to speed up absorption during his practice, but the existing bear meat would only last him half a month, which was insignificant in the context of decades of deduction, so it was better to leave it for his grandfather and Silang.

As for high-level precious medicines and beast meat, they are too scarce and do not require any time to digest and improve.

If Jiang Yue had the meat of more than a thousand giant bears, enough to last for three to five years, he would definitely keep it by his side and digest it quickly over time.
-
"Divine Seal, consume seventy years of time, strengthen martial arts: Heavenly Demon Furnace Treasure Scroll."

After returning home, Jiang Yue went back into the house, closed the doors and windows, and said to himself.

He now has seventy-seven years, and he plans to use most of them to deduce the Heavenly Demon Furnace Scroll and improve his hard power, that is, his physical strength.

The remaining seven years were intended to be used to try out the two killing methods of Water Dragon Song and Opening Mountains and Breaking Mountains.

As Jiang Yue silently recited, the divine seal panel appeared in his field of vision, and the font on it changed accordingly.

[Seventy years of time were spent to deduce and strengthen the Heavenly Demon Furnace Treasure Scroll]

[Year One: You are already familiar with the practice process of the Heavenly Demon Furnace Scroll. Continue to carefully guide the Qi and blood, temper the spleen, and build the Bear Furnace.

You have triggered your spiritual clarity talent, and you are extremely focused, and your cultivation speed has increased. 】

【.】

【Tenth Year:

You have devoted yourself to spiritual practice for ten years. Except for sleeping and eating, all your time is spent on meditation and practice.

This year, your Bear Forge is built up by 10%. 】

【.】

[Twentieth Year: Your Bear Furnace is 20% constructed.]

【.】

【.】

[Seventieth Year:
This year, your Bear Furnace has been built to 70% and the blood flow has become several times smoother, making it easier to use.

The spleen is responsible for transporting qi and blood and transporting essence.

70% Bear Furnace, greatly improve your physique, and your strength becomes stronger. 】

【Deduction and enhancement completed.】

[The Heavenly Demon Furnace Treasure Scroll Level 2, not upgraded to the next level.]

Jiang Yue woke up from his practice and looked at the prompt on the panel. He couldn't help but think: "It seems that the Heavenly Demon Furnace Treasure Scroll only has six levels. The entry level is considered the first level. After each level of the furnace is completed, it is considered an upgrade to a level."

"But the level doesn't matter."

Jiang Yue shook his head.

The level really doesn't matter, the higher the level, the stronger the strength, but the benefits and difficulty of upgrading one level of some martial arts are several times that of other martial arts.

What is important is to look at the improvement of your physique and killing skills, rather than the improvement of your martial arts level.

"The spleen bear furnace, in simple terms, allows the blood and qi to be mobilized more quickly, making it easier to control and more convenient for practicing killing methods. After all, killing methods have special blood and qi circulation routes."

Jiang Yue gained some new insights into martial arts.

He stood up, walked to the yard, waved the three-pointed double-edged sword for a while, and thought carefully.

In fact, the two killing methods, Shuilongyin and Kaishanduanyue, one is chopping and the other is stabbing, which are just suitable for the two most common uses of the three-pointed double-edged sword.

"In fact, they are all different paths to the same end. If you use a three-pointed, double-edged sword to chop, wouldn't that be splitting mountains and breaking peaks? It's just that the blood circulation path is not suitable for this method."

Jiang Yue soon figured it out.

He only needs to familiarize himself with the two killing methods, Breaking Mountains and Duanyue, and Shuilongyin, and improve them into killing methods suitable for long-handled weapons.

Shuilongyin is a spear technique, so it should be easier to improve.

So Jiang Yue first focused his attention on Shui Long Yin.

"Panel, please use the remaining time to deduce and strengthen the martial arts Water Dragon Song."

Jiang Yue muttered to himself.

[It took seven years to deduce and strengthen the martial arts Water Dragon Song. ]

First Year:
You wield your spear in the courtyard, practicing the basic techniques of the killing method Shui Long Yin: stabbing, flicking, tapping, piercing, throwing, and collapsing.
You practiced it over and over again, tirelessly, and gradually became familiar with and mastered the key points of Shuilongyin.

This year, you have already practiced to a certain level, and your various spear techniques are standard, and your qi and blood flow smoothly. 】

Second year:

You continue to swing your spear, stabbing again and again.

This year, you have become more proficient and started to formally practice the killing technique Water Dragon Song. 】

【.】

[Fifth Year:

After your practice to this point, you have already noticed all the key points of Shuilongyin. All you need to do is keep practicing.

This year, you practiced very hard, day and night. 】

[Year 7:

You have already mastered the killing method "Water Dragon Chant" and have formed muscle memory and qi and blood memory. When you stab out with a gun, your qi and blood automatically circulate, and the tip of the gun is like a galloping water dragon, with great momentum and terrifying power.

This year, you officially entered the realm of perfection in mastering the killing method "Water Dragon Song". 】

[The deduction is over. 】

[Water Dragon Song lv1→Water Dragon Song lv10]

After the deduction was over, Jiang Yue came back to his senses, and his mind was filled with memories of seven years of practicing killing techniques.

During these seven years, he practiced continuously with a spear in hand, starting from the most basic spear skills to formally practicing the Water Dragon Chant killing move, and put in a lot of effort.

The mastery of killing methods is divided into entry level, minor success, major success, perfection, and artistic conception.

Generally speaking, when a killing method reaches perfection, that is the end. An ordinary person would have to practice hard for at least twenty to thirty years to reach perfection, but Jiang Yue only took seven years.

This shows that although Jiang Yue is mediocre in physical training, he seems to be improving rapidly in killing skills.

"The spear and the three-pointed double-edged sword are basically the same. The blood circulation route only needs to be slightly changed."

Jiang Yue held the three-pointed, double-edged sword in both hands, red blood mist rising from his body, and a surge of power was secretly accumulating.

His body shook violently, he stepped on the ground with both feet, and exerted force from the dragon in his waist and abdomen. His energy and blood surged and flowed, adding to the three-pointed, double-edged sword.

I saw a flash of silver-red light, and the three-pointed double-edged sword pierced the newly built wall of the animal pen. The surging power was concentrated on the three points and spread inside the wall.

The force spread from the inside through three points, like a water dragon tumbling in the water, instantly destroying the inside of the wall.

boom--

The newly built wall collapsed with a loud bang, and the inside was shattered into powder.

This wall was built with wood and mud, and was actually very brittle. The fact that it only damaged the inside without damaging the outside showed that Jiang Yue had already used his strength to the extreme.

The earth wall collapsed and smoke and dust spread everywhere.

Jiang Yue slowly retracted the three-pointed, double-edged sword, frightened by the astonishing destructive power.

[You improved the martial arts Water Dragon Song (lv10) into a three-pointed double-edged sword killing method. Do you want to keep the change? ]

Jiang Yue's eyes lit up when he saw the prompt on the panel.

"reserve!"

[The change is retained successfully, the deduction and strengthening direction of Water Dragon Song (Lv10) is changed to: Three-pointed Double-edged Sword Weapon Killing Method]

Jiang Yue never expected that Erlang Shen's Seal was so intelligent that it could change the direction of killing methods by itself!
This is so convenient. In the future, when I use unpopular weapons like the trident, I don’t have to worry about not having a way to kill.
