Hyper-fusion, I have infinite forms

Chapter 178 Eastern Martial Arts, Tribute Conference, Zhenwu Promotion
One day later, it was the sixteenth day of Zhou Yan’s journey.

He came to a prosperous city - Yecheng.

This city is about one thousand kilometers away from Zhulu City.

It is a well-known big city in the Eastern Wulin, and its status is similar to that of Zhulu City in the Southern Wulin.

The only difference is that Yecheng is not the garrison city of "Tianmo Castle", the overlord of Dongwulin.

Tianmo Castle is slightly similar to Dengxian Pavilion. They did not place their headquarters in a city that is convenient for management, but instead arranged it on a cliff somewhere on the eastern coast.

All the people in Tianmo Castle are obsessed with practicing Zhenwu. They live in seclusion and do not engage in production. All living materials are provided by major forces.

The method used by Tianmo Castle to rule the Eastern Martial Arts World is bizarre and bloody.

This top force advocates the law of the jungle, and they allow and condone all forces in the entire Eastern martial arts world to fight and kill.

However, they follow their own set of rules to keep this "forest" thriving.

Simply put, as long as each force can pay tribute on time according to the share of the territory it occupies, then under normal circumstances, the forces can beat each other's brains to pieces, and the Demon Castle will not ask or interfere at all.

It will not favor any one force.

However, the Demon Castle advocates fair and square combat.

Once a certain force uses conspiracy and trickery to bully the weak or bring harm to families, or even threatens to kidnap, the Demon Castle will make a judgment after investigating it in its own way.

If the guilt is confirmed, the "Demon Killing Order" will be issued, and those who violate the rules will be killed along with their entire clan, leaving no one alive.

With this ultimate means of deterrence, all the warriors in the Eastern Martial Arts World have developed a bloody and fierce, but upright style of doing things.

If the warriors disagreed, they would fight to the death.

However, the conflict is limited to the two of them, and there is no need to worry about revenge or retaliation against the family afterwards.

Zhou Yan easily entered the city through the main gate of Yecheng without any hindrance.

The city guards of Yecheng seemed to be influenced by the tough and rugged spirit of the eastern martial arts world. As long as those entering and leaving the city gate were not intentionally causing trouble, they would almost never be checked or questioned.

Walking on the wide streets of Yecheng, Zhou Yan did not appreciate the local customs and culture too much. He directly found a luxuriously decorated inn and walked in.

Running thousands of kilometers in a day was not difficult for Zhou Yan, who had a circuit effect related to physical recovery. However, he felt a little bored from traveling like this all the time, so he wanted to find a place to rest and recover.

"Welcome, sir. May I ask if you would like to stay overnight or take a short rest?"

As soon as I entered the door, a waiter with a towel hanging on one shoulder came up with a smile on his face.

"Overnight, the best room, three nights first." Zhou Yan took out a silver ingot and put it on the counter: "Is this money enough?"

He took out about one or two taels of silver, which was equivalent to about two thousand yuan in the main world in purchasing power.

He brought this silver before Zhulu Club set out for Dengxian Pavilion. As the overlord of the south, Zhulu Club would certainly not be stingy with the money given to the three hall masters. Zhou Yan put a lot of it in his ghost gourd in case of emergency.

The waiter bowed his head and smiled apologetically, "Sir, in the past, you could stay in the best room for five days with this money, but now there is a long-awaited conference in the valley outside Ye City, and the rooms are in short supply, so..."

The waiter said this, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Zhou Yan laughed and shook his head, then took out another ingot of ten taels of silver and handed it over: "Is this enough?"

"That's enough! More than enough!" The waiter smiled happily, biting the silver while leading Zhou Yan, "Sir, take you to the best room."

Zhou Yan followed the waiter and asked casually, "What is this big event in the Eastern Martial Arts World that you mentioned? Tell me about it."

The waiter looked over in shock, looking at Zhou Yan in armor, and said in a surprised tone: "Sir, you are wearing armor and holding weapons, and you are obviously a warrior. Aren't you here for the tribute meeting?"

Zhou Yan shook his head: "In the tribute ceremony, who pays tribute to whom?"

"Of course, all the major forces in East Wulin will pay tribute to the Demon Castle!" The waiter looked excited.

"This tribute meeting is held every autumn in Tianque Valley outside Yecheng. It is also an arbitration meeting for various forces to resolve conflicts that cannot be resolved and need to be resolved by Tianmo Fort. Most of the prominent people in the Eastern Martial Arts World will attend."

Tribute Conference
Just in time.

Zhou Yan didn't wonder why he always seemed to encounter "plot points" that looked quite special.

Even if he didn't encounter the tribute meeting in the East Wulin, if he went to the North Wulin, there might be something like the "Qianshan Meeting".

Xiwulin will also hold a meeting in the middle of the month at the Dengxian Pavilion to gather all the heroes to discuss matters.

[Order] The disaster worlds that he was arranged to enter were mostly in worlds that were already in chaos or about to become chaotic where some disaster had already begun to take effect. In such a world, there were big things happening everywhere.

Zhou Yan's original purpose was to come to Dongwulin to find two of the three legendary demons. Now that so many heroes have gathered together, he might be able to get some clues. He asked the waiter and found out that the tribute meeting would start in four days, so he stayed in the inn with peace of mind.

Return to the room.

After Zhou Yan closed the doors and windows, he used the function of his life equipment that he had not been able to use.

[Summoning the Life-Armored User]

[Order Walker, you can currently summon the life suit user "Oboro", do you confirm the summon?]

【confirm】

The next second, a young girl dressed in life-threatening clothes appeared in front of Zhou Yan out of thin air from the illusory magic circle.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw Zhou Yan standing in front of her with a smile. She couldn't help but smile happily and said, "Lord Zhou Yan."

"Long, nice to see you again." Zhou Yan smiled slightly and held her in his arms.

The girl huddled in his arms obediently, then looked around: "Master Zhou Yan, is this a new world? It looks a bit like ancient times."

Ever since experiencing the disastrous world of "Extreme Desire", Long has gained a new understanding of the concepts of "ancient" and "modern".

"Yes, an ancient world where people have special combat power."

Zhou Yan slowly told the girl about the situation in this "Demon Blasphemy" world, then went straight to the point and began to teach her how to have an Immaculate Body.

That’s right, he didn’t summon Long just to enjoy her beauty, but to teach her real martial arts to enhance her martial arts skills.

He could have started summoning as soon as he arrived in this world, but he could only summon for free once each time he walked, and he didn't want to waste the opportunity without fully understanding the situation.

When he was in the competition before, there were people everywhere who looked at him with suspicion, and a girl suddenly appearing next to him would definitely attract attention.

Now that he has left Zhulu Club and come to Dongwulin, and his own Immaculate Body has almost mastered the skill, he can start trying to teach others.

Long is a person with a talent for martial arts, and it is also possible that after being taken in by Zhou Yan as a life-equipment user, she developed a physique that can quickly adapt to "supernormal" things.

In addition, the Life Equipment User can enter the "Spiritual Burning" state with the spirituality provided by the Order Walker.

So her martial arts learning speed is not slower than Zhou Yan's.

Under the guidance of Zhou Yan's own true energy, he quickly understood the operation route and mental skills of the Immaculate Body, and completed his introduction to this true martial art.

"In the next period of time, Long, remember to practice at all times, so that you can improve your combat power."

The girl nodded seriously to Zhou Yan, then closed her eyes again and continued to practice her mental skills to convert her spirit into true energy.

Four days passed slowly in the secluded life.

On the morning of the fourth day, Long had accumulated a certain amount of true qi. He was able to rely on his own true qi to input the acupoint combination of his pure body and initially activate the ability to control fire.

In addition, Zhou Yan also taught the girl the "Golden Barrel" of the White Tiger Palace and the "Fire Virtue and Qi Nourishing Chapter" of the Vermillion Bird Palace, one for cultivating the body and the other for developing acupoints.

The wearer of the Life Outfit has a secondary Life Outfit with 70% of the numerical value and function of the Order Walker's Life Outfit. With the physical and mental blessing of this Life Outfit, it is fully sufficient to support Long's early practice of the cultivation method that only the True Realm strong can use.

*
It was approaching noon.

Zhou Yan temporarily ended his training, slowly opened his eyes, and a flash of flame appeared in his pupils.

He examined his skills and nodded with satisfaction.

[Skills: Nanming Sword (Master), Nanming Three Secret Swords (Master), Secret Sword·Chongming (Proficient), Crane Breathing Method (Proficient), Fire Virtue Nourishing Qi Chapter (Standard), White Emperor Martial Arts (Proficient), Immaculate Body (Proficient)]

The basic Nanming Sword and the three-stroke secret sword have already reached the master level for a long time. Although he feels that his sword skills are still gradually improving, his panel shows that his level has not yet exceeded the subsequent evaluation of "Master".

After his physique and agility reached a certain level, it became very easy for him to improve his physical skills.

After all, when a person is far superior to ordinary people in terms of strength, speed, accuracy, reaction, etc., it is difficult to say that those mortal martial arts created for ordinary people are difficult.

On the contrary, the strongest secret sword move "Chongming" is still at the proficient level. In addition to physical strength, this secret sword move also involves a certain degree of mental application. It is a sword skill frequently used by most of the mechanical warriors who have reached the true realm in Suzaku Palace. Luo Xuan once used this move to fight against the master skinner and gained the upper hand.

It goes without saying that he had mastered the breathing technique. The Baidi Martial Arts was also a mortal skill for physical training, and he had easily practiced it to a proficient level before embarking on this journey.

The most important are two skills related to the extraordinary.

He had finally broken through to the "proficient" level of the Immaculate Body of the Zhenwu system. The sign of reaching this level was that he was now able to use the first special move corresponding to the Immaculate Body.

This move is called "Flame Spear".
