Nine-layer armor-breaking

Chapter 54: Gun Skills
After the previous blow, Jiang Xuan was completely exhausted and unable to fight quickly. He simply fell to the ground without even checking on the giant bone wolf's subsequent condition.

Although the battle has not yet ended, Jiang Xuan is still more than 90% sure of victory.

This is only one aspect. Another reason is the existence of Mr. Sha.

Although he had only known Mr. Sha for one day, Jiang Xuan had already initially determined that Mr. Sha was a senior who was trustworthy and worthy of respect because of his "reckless" personality.

Therefore, if the giant bone wolf still has a little ability to fight back, Sha Lao will also protect Jiang Xuan.

What's more, Jiang Xuan's physical strength is almost exhausted at this moment. It can be said that he has no choice but to trust Mr. Sha.

Old Sha walked up to the giant bone wolf, made a rough assessment of its condition, and then took out the black spear.

"It's so heavy." Old Sha weighed the black rhino spear again.

After watching the battle for a while, Old Sha lost some interest in fighting. Holding the terrifyingly heavy Black Rhino Spear, he felt a little helpless.

Looking at Jiang Xuan lying in the distance, gasping for breath, Old Sha smiled bitterly and shook his head. He threw two spears casually and they landed not far from Jiang Xuan.

"Is the battle over?" Jiang Xuan said.

"That's about right." Old Sha said calmly as he continued walking towards Jiang Xuan.

Although Jiang Xuan was still unable to stand up, he had regained a little strength and struggled to raise one hand with his palm facing up.

"This kid." Old Sha pointed at Jiang Xuan lying on the ground and said helplessly.

He pulled out a porcelain bottle from his bosom, which was the same bottle of healing pill that Sha Lao had taken from Jiang Xuan earlier. Sha Lao uncorked the bottle, poured out a pill, and casually tossed it into Jiang Xuan's raised hand.

Feeling something fall into his hand, Jiang Xuan weighed the object in his hand, a trace of doubt appeared on his face: "Only one?"

"What? You just broke through and you're thinking about breaking through again? Do you think breaking through is like eating?" Old Sha walked up to Jiang Xuan with his hands behind his back and found that Jiang Xuan, who was lying on the ground, was not in a very embarrassed state. Instead, he looked a little indifferent.

"A breakthrough requires a solid foundation, and it should come naturally. You just broke through yesterday, so you are naturally in the consolidation stage now. You cannot force a breakthrough. Once you have consolidated this fifth level, breaking through to the next level will be a natural thing." Old Sha explained.

After hearing what Old Sha said, Jiang Xuan naturally had nothing to say. He obediently put the pill in his hand into his mouth, waiting for the medicinal effect to be released.

After just a moment, Jiang Xuan sat up as if nothing had happened, crossed his legs and meditated on the spot, continuing to digest the remaining medicinal effects of the pill.

"It's rare for a elixir at the warrior stage to have such an effect." The effect of the elixir that Jiang Xuan took took effect so quickly that it was beyond Old Sha's prediction about the elixir. Old Sha couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In fact, just after Jiang Xuan took the whole bottle of recovery pills yesterday, Old Sha noticed how quickly the pills took effect.

Judging from what happened this morning after Jiang Xuan absorbed all the medicinal power of the pills, the medicinal power of these recovery pills exceeded Mr. Sha's previous prediction.

In addition, Jiang Xuan's previous description of the young pharmacist from another state made Old Sha realize that the pharmacist from another state was indeed a pharmacist with excellent qualifications.

"That out-of-state pharmacist's understanding of alchemy is truly admirable. If he had become a cultivator, a true alchemist, who knows what he could have achieved. What a pity!" Elder Sha couldn't help but feel sorry for the out-of-state pharmacist. According to Elder Sha's plan before entering the forest, if Jiang Xuan wanted to achieve anything in the Qixi Desert, he had to reach at least the advanced Heavenly Rank, or even the peak Heavenly Rank, before entering.

"Mr. Sha, what are your plans next?" In less than half an hour, Jiang Xuan opened his eyes, stood up, saluted Mr. Sha, and asked.

"To what extent has it recovered?" Old Sha asked calmly.

Jiang Xuan stretched his arms and legs, grinned, and said, "I've basically recovered all my strength."

Although the word "basically" is before "restored all physical strength", a single recovery pill can achieve such an effect, so it can still be considered a pill of extremely high quality.

Since pharmacists cannot condense their true qi like alchemists who are cultivators, they cannot accurately control the flames for refining medicine. The pills they refine often have some side effects, and some pills are even toxic. The quality of the pills they refine is also relatively low.

Therefore, the quality of the pills that Jiang Xuan and Sha Lao obtained in that cave can be said to be quite amazing.

"With such superb alchemy skills, it's a pity that there is no Strengthening Muscle Powder in this batch of pills." Old Sha thought to himself.

"We'll all go hunting in the forest in the next few days." After saying this, Old Sha looked at Jiang Xuan. Seeing that the latter had no objection, he extended his hand and said to Jiang Xuan, "Give me your spear skills."

"What kind of shooting skills are you referring to?" Jiang Xuan asked with a little confusion.

Jiang Xuan wasn't being deceptive; he genuinely had some doubts. He had never mentioned either the Suiyuan or Falling Leaf spear techniques to Old Sha, and even Jiang Xuan himself had only mastered a few simple moves of the Falling Leaf spear technique, relying on his understanding of the Suiyuan spear technique.

More importantly, both of these spear techniques are considered extremely rare. How did Mr. Sha know that Jiang Xuan had such a skill? If it was just a guess, then which specific spear technique did Mr. Sha ask for?

"The spear technique you just used, the spear showed a posture like a falling leaf when it was flying. What kind of spear technique is that?" Old Sha continued to ask.

"A posture like a fallen leaf? Mr. Sha can even guess the name of the spear technique?" Jiang Xuan was inevitably shocked.

I forced myself to suppress my surprise and calmed myself down.

Now that Old Sha has clearly pointed to the Falling Leaf Spear Technique, it means that he has not yet guessed the existence of the Suiyuan Spear Technique, which makes Jiang Xuan feel relieved.

Exposing Suiyuan's marksmanship would also make it easier for Jiang Xuan's father Jiang Yuan's identity to be exposed, which was something Jiang Xuan did not want to happen.

However, since Old Sha had already said so much, Jiang Xuan didn't expect to hide it anymore, so he simply told him about the Falling Leaf Spear Technique.

"You must be referring to the Falling Leaf Spear Technique. I don't have the manual with me; it should be at the inn." Jiang Xuan looked helpless. This morning, when Jiang Xuan was leaving, he had planned to take everything with him. However, Old Sha had advised Jiang Xuan to leave his elixirs and other belongings at the inn and only take the two spears. Jiang Xuan also took a porcelain bottle, which was the bottle of recovery elixir.

But now it seems that Jiang Xuan's taking the porcelain bottle with him must have been tacitly approved by Sha Lao. Otherwise, with Sha Lao's strength, it would have been very difficult for Jiang Xuan to take the porcelain bottle out.
