Night without Borders

Chapter 53 It's Really Coming

Qin Ming was shocked. Could it be that this sword manual would really exceed his expectations and give him surprises again and again?
The old man's swordsmanship was already amazing enough, allowing him to witness a very high level of swordsmanship. However, he had just achieved some success and was unable to fully display the power of his strongest sword.

Now, he hasn't practiced the old man's Tianguang Jin yet, but this "Tathagata Jin" has reacted?
Soon, Qin Ming shook his head again. He shouldn't have such high expectations. If someone really practiced Tathagata Power, they probably wouldn't look down on this sword manual.

The Sky-lifting Power, Tathagata Power, etc. are stronger than the Giant Spirit Power and are legendary powers. It should be noted that the goal of the latter is to become a god, which is already extremely powerful.

After Qin Ming thought about this, he had already made a judgment that the legendary Tianguang Jin could not appear in this book.

He began to focus all his attention on the book, reading it immersively and resonating with the emotions.

The more focused he is and the more concentrated his mind is, the clearer those sounds and images become.

Qin Ming went to watch the "Rulai Jin" first. Just one sentence caused such a strong emotional fluctuation. It can be seen how deep the obsession of the person who left the notes was.

In front of him, a burly man appeared with a full beard and a broadsword on his back. He looked up at the night sky and sighed on a rainy day.

Finally, he even shouted: "Rulai Jin, I will train you like a nail!"

What's going on? Qin Ming was startled, and almost lost his focus again because of his words and quit the state of resonance.

After a moment, he understood. The bearded man followed the map and after many twists and turns, he finally found the secret treasure left by his predecessors and obtained a few pages of paper.

The beginning is very intimidating, and the first paragraph tells later comers that this secret method is related to Tathagata Power!

However, when the big man read it carefully and turned to the last page excitedly, he almost tore the paper. The last line read, "This is a kind of nail force with extremely strong penetrating power."

The earliest owner of the paper seriously told his descendants that among the combination of Tathagata power, nail power is definitely included.

Qin Ming was also speechless for a while. He could understand the bearded man's feelings.

In fact, any kind of unique martial arts is made up of many power methods combined together, and finally merged into the rare Tianguang power.

Not to mention the legendary powerful techniques.

Everyone knows that the "true teachings of Tathagata Jin" must be densely packed with various Jin methods.

Qin Ming sighed, no wonder the bearded man had the word "hate" in his message, he must have been confused and felt bitter at that time, after all, he had put in a lot of effort in searching for the paper.

Afterwards, Qin Ming began to learn.

Although the big man cursed, he still studied this method and practiced it with a strong feeling of indignation because he felt that he was cheated.

When Qin Ming followed his resonance, he was affected by him and almost got angry.

At first, he was still suppressing it, but later he found that the more he got angry, the stronger the spiritual resonance became, and the clearer those insights became.

Then, he let go completely!
When he closed the book, he was still muttering, "I'll screw you!"

Qin Ming closed his eyes and calmed himself for a quarter of an hour before he completely got rid of that emotion.

He came to the courtyard and began to practice seriously. His movements were very smooth, without any sense of sluggishness, as if he had been studying this for most of his life.

The heavenly light in Qin Ming's body flowed rapidly, and sharp light appeared at his fingertips, and the nail power gradually took shape.

He echoed the emotions of his predecessors, as if he had experienced those things himself. He firmly grasped those insights and experiences and turned them into his own "food".

But this does not mean that his perseverance has been accumulated over decades.

Because he only witnessed those things and resonated with those insights and experiences, but he did not gain power. He still had to practice on his own.

In a sense, this kind of emotional resonance is of greatest value and use when faced with various "techniques". For example, by watching sword techniques, gun techniques, sword manuals, etc., one can master them quickly and efficiently, and once one has an epiphany, it will be as if one has practiced for decades.

As for the improvement of life level, such as Qin Ming's transformation from second rebirth to third rebirth and the accumulation of the total amount of Tianguang Jin, he still needs to accumulate it by himself.

In the latter areas, he could not achieve success overnight.

"Even so, it's enough! After all, some techniques are very difficult to practice, and not easy to comprehend thoroughly." Qin Ming was very satisfied. Holding the fruits of his predecessors' hard work, and after integrating them on the spiritual level, he gained enormous benefits.

He studied it carefully and thought that this kind of nail power was quite strong. Although the name was not very nice, it was very useful in actual combat.

With Qin Ming's own understanding, it is not difficult to develop nail strength, but relying on those experiences and insights, he can get started quickly, so he is naturally willing to do so. After all, it saves precious time.

Qin Ming didn't use much force, his finger just poked lightly and pierced into the millstone.

The Tianguang Power that appeared when he practiced the silk book has many characteristics such as adhesion, tearing, and penetration. There is no doubt that the nail power can be integrated into it!
Suddenly, Qin Ming heard crying, and he pushed the door and walked out.

"The old man of the Li family passed away just now." He heard the news on the street.

Qin Ming's heart skipped a beat. He looked up at the night sky and roughly estimated the location. The black fog that appeared not long ago probably fell near the Li family.

He felt a chill in his heart. What was going on?
Are there really all kinds of ghosts in this world that want to take lives? He doesn't believe in these things. Even the so-called mountain monsters are just advanced aliens.

However, he did discover that the black fog that outsiders could not see was moving like a snake from afar.

"Is that the thing that Cao Long, Mu Qing and the others said is invisible and even feared by big families?" Qin Ming's heart tightened.

He observed the area quietly, but did not see the black fog again.

Shuangshu Village is not big, with only about forty households. Any slight disturbance will soon be known to the whole village.

Xu Yueping came and sighed, "Now that food from the outside world has been transported in and mutant creatures have retreated from the outside of the mountain, hunting has become safer. Life is about to get better, but some elderly people have passed away at this time."

After Qin Ming heard this, he immediately felt something was wrong and asked, "Have many elderly people passed away recently?"

Xu Yueping nodded and said, "Well, in the surrounding villages, elderly people have passed away every day recently."

Then, as if he remembered something, he said, "There are also a few young people who were injured while hunting and have not survived recently."

He lowered his voice and said, "Some people also said that the young men who died might have been involved in going into the mountains to pick up weapons. No one dared to go there recently. However, a group of people brought back weapons and nothing happened."

Qin Ming frowned, he suspected that all this was related to the black fog.

And first, he saw the black fog in the great rift valley where weapons were scattered.

Qin Ming was in mixed feelings, he couldn't tell anyone about these things.

His bright mood after practicing the silk-winding force and nail-force was completely destroyed. Will the unpredictable but very dangerous black fog come again?

Qin Ming felt unsure and had a strong sense of urgency. He didn't want to put his fate in the hands of uncertainty.

He strode towards Old Man Liu's house, wanting to ask where the blacksmith shop was.

"You want to forge a sword, and you want to do it yourself?" Old man Liu looked surprised.

Qin Ming nodded and said, "Yes, let's find a reliable blacksmith shop. I'm in urgent need of a good knife."

Old man Liu shook his head and said, "So many things have happened recently, and we can go into the mountains to hunt again. The blacksmith shop is doing great business. It's very busy at this time, and we definitely can't make room for you. Why don't you go early tomorrow, before they start work?" Qin Ming thought about it and finally nodded. He guessed that if he went now, the shop would definitely not be willing to go. It would be too conspicuous to pay an unusually high price at this sensitive moment.

He felt that the black fog had just come to Shuangshu Village and should move to another place for the time being. It would be abnormal no matter how you looked at it if there were continuous deaths in such a small village.

"Let's set off at midnight. This is my first time forging a sword and I don't have much experience. I don't know how long it will take."

"Why are you doing this? Just find someone to forge it." Old Liu was very familiar with the people in the blacksmith shop, but he was in his third year of rebirth, so it was not convenient for him to go out and say hello. He kicked the big yellow dog and said, "Dog, get up and help me deliver a letter."

……

After Qin Ming returned home, he carefully studied the sword manual to calm his mind.

He saw the old man again, brandishing the knife.

The old man has mastered a kind of intercepting force, a very subtle Tianguang force method, which is a combination of many common force methods.

Qin Ming didn't know how many types he had integrated, because the emotions were not strong and the scene was rather bleak.

Qin Ming obtained the ultimate intercepting force. As soon as he started practicing, he knew that this Tianguang force method was very powerful and quite complicated.

If he were to study and comprehend it on his own, it would probably take a very long time, because this is no longer a single-attribute power method and is quite profound.

Qin Ming saw the old man’s memory, and found out that his understanding of Jie Jin was actually for the pursuit of the legendary Jie Tian Jin!
Unfortunately, although the old man is extremely gifted and has made great progress in the way of the sword, his vitality level cannot keep up, and he is unable to acquire famous power methods. Being able to research the intercepting power is already his limit.

"Just this kind of intercepting power is worth consuming the three-color flower!" Qin Ming already understood the value of intercepting power.

"Cut a line through the sky, hoping to tear open the night..." He clearly discovered that even the sword manual was evolved based on this kind of skylight power, and the most powerful sword meant to cut through the sky.

Qin Ming sat quietly and digested the thought for a long time. The intercepting power was indeed amazing.

Not long after, he showed a look of surprise. It turned out that his Tianguang Jin was related to all aspects and could be integrated with Jie Jin!
Now he finally understood why that annotation was on the silk book. It was indeed a special reminder to future generations: "Rong" is just one word!

“We must seek within ourselves, but we must also borrow from others.”

Obviously, it is not enough to just seek within. Without spiritual material, how can he quickly improve his life level by relying solely on himself to improve himself?

If he doesn't have other methods of strength, how can he integrate it?

Qin Ming drank the last of the spiritual substance. After his body became hot again that night, he completely completed his third rebirth, which was faster than the second rebirth.

He felt the changes in himself. His strength must have been over 3,000 kilograms, and his speed and physical toughness had also increased, with his physical fitness increasing significantly.

In the middle of the night, Qin Ming opened his eyes, walked out of the house and met up with Old Man Liu.

The blacksmith shop is in Yinteng Town. It is very quiet at this time of the day. Even if business is good, no one will be working in the middle of the night.

Old man Liu is now in great spirits and energy. He personally helps Qin Ming blow air to raise the furnace temperature.

However, what made Qin Ming dumbfounded was that he could not melt the piece of mutton-fat jade iron, and in the end it just burned red.

"What kind of rare treasure is this? You are really something special. It must be a mysterious product from the mountains, right?" Old man Liu guessed it at the first moment.

"Keep blowing!"

In the end, Qin Ming no longer expected to melt it, and while the iron was still burning red, he swung a sledgehammer and smashed it hard. Fortunately, this was underground, otherwise, the noise would have been too loud in the middle of the night.

Even with Qin Ming's tremendous strength, he was exhausted in the end, because he never stopped and used all his strength in every strike.

"I was reborn three times just to become a blacksmith?"

Old man Liu really couldn't stand it anymore, so he took action himself. His skills were better than Qin Ming's. After all, he was very familiar with the people in the blacksmith shop and had forged knives here himself.

Qin Ming learned quickly. He took the sledgehammer again and put in all his effort before finally forging the knife.

After the final quenching, the two men were unable to sharpen it and could not sharpen it at all.

Old man Liu couldn't take his eyes away and sighed, "I think you can reforge this knife when you get to a big place. We really can't do anything here. The materials are too good."

"Well, I'm still unsure what weapon I'm going to use in the future, so let's just make do with this for now." Qin Ming looked at the jade-white blade. This material was really eye-catching.

He brushed on the mineral paint he had prepared in advance and then dried it with fire.

If he really wanted to peel off the paint, with the adhesive properties of his Tianguang Jin, he could just brush it off with his hand.

Due to limited materials, even including the handle, it is not as long as an arm, but it is long enough and Qin Ming finds it very convenient to use.

As for the small piece of blue jade iron, Qin Ming did not move it. It was impossible to forge such a delicate object here.

Qin Ming asked, "Isn't it a bit early to go to that family now to borrow the secret book?"

"It's pitch black, and even the breakfast shops in town aren't open yet. It's not appropriate to go there so early."

The two walked around the town for a long time and couldn't even have breakfast first.

Qin Ming's pupils contracted. Whatever he cared about would come true. He saw the black fog again.

It was actually roaming around in the town and just came out of a house. It seemed to have spotted the two of them and came over quickly.

"Uncle Liu, let's go home first." Qin Ming spoke, pulled him around, and winked at Old Man Liu in the thick night.

After Old Liu's first three rebirths, even in such a dark night, his expression could be clearly seen. He immediately nodded and said, "Okay!"

The two of them went into a small alley and changed their route.

The black fog then changed direction and followed.

Qin Ming realized that he was being watched thoroughly. It was probably because there was no one on the street in the late night and the two of them stood out too much.

There is another possibility. The two encountered the black fog in the Great Rift Valley. This was not the first time they met. It is estimated that the black fog remembered them.

"There is another possibility. Could it be that when I discovered it yesterday, the black fog also noticed me?"

No matter which situation it is, today will probably not end well!
"Let's go back to the village and bring some prey back!" Qin Ming said, naturally gripping the hilt of the knife, and left Yinteng Town with Old Man Liu.

The black fog seemed to be happy that they were entering an uninhabited area, and followed them silently.

As more and more trees grew on both sides of the road, the black fog could no longer hold back and suddenly pounced towards the two of them.

Qin Ming did not hesitate and was on guard for a long time. When it got close, he struck back with a knife!
