Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

Chapter 347: Obtained the "Ninja Escape Technique"! A great item!

"No—it's impossible! I can't lose to him!"

Only one thought remained in Sarutobi Sasaki's mind.

boom!
Click!

A piercing sound of bones shattering echoed throughout the surrounding area.

Sarutobi Sasaki's heart was filled with resentment, regret, and defiance!
He fell to the ground with a thud, like a stray dog ​​with its spine broken.

One hit kills!
A vicious, ruthless, and deadly combination of kicks is the sure-fire killer.

Sarutobi Sasaki was struck in the heart by a kick.

The powerful internal force penetrated and instantly detonated!

One-inch cut through, one-inch burst!

Sarutobi Sasaki's internal organs and heart ruptured instantly.

Chen Jie's powerful combination of leg strikes concentrated all his power into a single point.

The explosive force reverberated and spread within Sarutobi Sasaki's body.

His chances of survival were instantly extinguished by Chen Jie's seemingly inevitable combination attack.

Sarutobi Sasaki, one of the top leaders of the Black Dragon Society and a master of the Marrow Transformation Realm, died in Xianning Prefecture!
A single, deadly blow; ruthless and vicious.

Although Chen Jie's martial arts level was a whole realm lower than Sarutobi Sasaki's.

but,

His spiritual cultivation had broken through to the 'mid-stage of guarding the acupoints'.

Once the spiritual perception and fist intent of the Refining Spirit Realm merge, they can suppress Sarutobi Sasaki.

When both sides are engaged in a life-or-death struggle.

Chen Jie is not only able to predict the direction of the opponent's attack with uncanny foresight, but also able to overwhelm the opponent with the essence of martial arts.

The battle lasted only a short time, no more than three minutes in total.

Sarutobi Sasaki's defense was breached by Chen Jie, who delivered a final, powerful kick to the heart, instantly killing him.

but,

Chen Jie's victory in this martial arts competition was hard-won.

The consequences could be unpredictable if there is even the slightest negligence.

After Sarutobi Sasaki was killed.

The 'Blood Dragon Jade' kept flashing in his mind.

[Martial Arts Merit Points: +52000!]

[Congratulations on defeating a Grandmaster of Internal Energy, a level above your own! You have been awarded an additional 200000 Martial Arts Merit Points!]

[Congratulations on successfully defeating the ninja leader using martial arts for the first time! You will receive an additional 100000 Martial Arts Merit Points!]

Huh?
Chen Jie was overjoyed to see the text flashing on the 'Blood Dragon Jade'.

Unexpectedly, this epic battle yielded a staggering 352000 Martial Arts Merit Points.

Most importantly, the base [Martial Arts Merit Points] have actually exceeded 5 points.

This shows that

Defeating a master at the peak of the Transformation Realm with martial arts skills yields over 50,000 Martial Arts Merit Points.

This epic battle earned him more than twice the base [Martial Arts Merit Points] compared to his previous victory over Ma Nanshan.

Next,
He glanced at the balance of [Martial Arts Merit Points] in the 'Blood Dragon Jade' in his mind, which totaled 651000 points.

There are still 35 points needed to activate the resonance of the [Martial Saint Sect] once more.

I hope that with the next activation, I can break through to the 'Marrow Transformation and Power Transformation' realm in one fell swoop!
Chen Jie thought to himself.

Next,
He searched Sarutobi Sasaki for a moment.

Nothing good!
Besides some insidious and vicious hidden weapons, there were also some poisons.

At last,
A book titled "Ninja Escape Techniques" was found in Sarutobi's personal possession.

This is a Taoist method of concealing one's whereabouts that originated in the Great Qian Dynasty.

Chen Jie opened "Ninja Escape Techniques" and glanced through it briefly.

Then, something surprising happened.

This is not a martial art, but a method of concealing one's movements.

Perhaps it was because his Spirit Refining Realm had broken through to the 'Mid-Stage Guardian' stage, giving him almost the ability to remember everything he saw.

Therefore,
After he flipped through the "Ninja Escape Techniques" book, the "Blood Dragon Jade" quickly responded in his mind.

[Martial Arts Merit Points +1000!]

Huh?
Chen Jie was somewhat surprised.

Once the 'Blood Dragon Jade' manifests in one's mind, it signifies that the 'Ninja Escape Technique' can be mastered.

but,

Activating the "Ninja Escape Technique" only grants 1000 [Martial Arts Merit Points].

In other words, compared to the "Bible Spiritual Cultivation Techniques," "Diamond Kung Fu," and "Buddhist Esoteric Mind Transmission Techniques," this "Ninja Escape Technique" is at a much lower level.

hiss--!
Then,

Chen Jie felt unbearable pain all over his body.

His bones had already developed cracks after clashing head-on with Sarutobi Sasaki.

During the intense battle just now, my adrenaline was pumping so high that I didn't feel any pain.

but,

Now that he's stopped, the pain has made him break out in a cold sweat.

Huff—huff—!
He kept adjusting his breathing to relieve his pain.

Although he had just killed Sarutobi Sasaki with his formidable fighting power.

but,

The gap in martial arts skill between the two made him feel very uncomfortable.

Whether it was the explosive leg techniques or the deadly punches, just now...

He had mastered the Vajra Skill and, with the powerful defensive capabilities of the Thirteen Protectors Horizontal Training, was able to barely withstand Sarutobi Saki's heavy blows.

He held nothing back, unleashing his full potential in spiritual cultivation and martial arts techniques.

When essence, energy, and spirit are united, the whole person is in a state of extreme potential.

Although his final, explosive kick didn't seem particularly sophisticated.

but,

That 'inch-penetrating' and 'inch-exploding' force far surpassed the Iron Bone Dark Force realm, enough to kill a master of Marrow Transformation Force.

This powerful leg strike was executed at an extremely precise time.

It was precisely at this moment that Sarutobi Sasaki's defense showed a weakness.

"Hmph! If you want to assassinate me, you'll have to pay the price with your life!"

Chen Jie looked at Sarutobi Saki's corpse and snorted coldly.

After tidying up the surroundings, he took out a painkiller pill and swallowed it.

Next,
He walked into the street.

The storm had stopped, and there was a lot of water on the ground. A dozen minutes later, he returned to the street where the restaurant had been.

Looking around, he realized that the Great Qian Hidden Guards and Ximen Hall's personal guards had already wiped out the Black Dragon Society's elite ninjas.

Linghu Qiannian fought a fierce battle with Kirigakure Jubei, one of the top leaders of the Black Dragon Society of the East, and both were severely injured.

Unfortunately, Kirigakure Jubei escaped.

However, none of the other elite ninjas escaped; they were all captured and killed.

at this time,

Before everyone's eyes, a Japanese samurai sword was stuck in the street, exuding a suffocating and chilling aura.

When Chen Jie planted Sarutobi Sasaki's sword into the ground, the few remaining ninjas showed a hint of horror in their eyes.

They looked up at Chen Jie in disbelief.

If Linghu Chong had pursued the ninja leader Kirigakure Jubei for a thousand years and finally returned successfully, perhaps no ninja would have been shocked.

After all, Linghu Qiannian was a powerful expert at the mid-stage of the Yi Sui Hua Jin realm, and also a steward of the Imperial Palace. His combat strength was unfathomable.

but,

It's unbelievable that Chen Jie, who was only at the peak of the Iron Bone Dark Force realm, was able to kill Sarutobi Sasaki, a level above him.

To know,
The higher the level of martial arts mastery, the greater the difference in combat power.

This isn't just a difference of a small realm, but a whole realm.

When Linghu Qiannian saw Sarutobi Saki's sword, he was immediately stunned and speechless.

Then,

He opened his eyes wide and looked Chen Jie up and down for a moment before saying:

"The Iron Bones and Hidden Strength have reached the pinnacle! Hiss—Young Master Chen, how did your martial arts level suddenly increase so dramatically—!"

The last time he performed the 'Golden Needle Acupuncture Technique' on Chen Jie, Chen Jie had just broken through to the Ming Jin realm.

How long has it been?

Chen Jie actually broke through to the Great Perfection of Iron Bone Dark Force in one go!

Such a terrifying speed of improvement in martial arts realm overturned Linghu's understanding of the past thousand years.

Chen Jie called out to those around him, walked into the restaurant he had been in before, and sat down in the same chair he had used at the beginning.

Linghu Qiannian followed him in, glancing at the other captured ninjas.

Then,

He glanced again at the Japanese samurai sword that Chen Jie had casually stuck in the street.

"Impressive! It seems your martial arts have surpassed mine during this time apart; you even managed to kill Sarutobi Sasaki!"

"Sarutobi Sasaki is one of the top leaders of the Black Dragon Society's Daqian branch, and his martial arts level has broken through to the Great Perfection of Marrow Transformation and Energy Transformation."

"His martial arts skills are comparable to those of Kirigakure Jubei. I fought with Kirigakure Jubei, and although I managed to cut him once, I was also injured, and in the end, he escaped."

"And you, you just killed Sarutobi Sasaki!"

Chen Jie smiled but didn't say anything.

He had no need to be humble in front of Linghu Qiannian.

In terms of peak combat power, he is indeed superior to Linghu Qiannian.

"Senior Linghu, after interrogating them, did you get any valuable information?"

"The Kwantung Army has remained silent. What exactly are they planning to do?"

Chen Jie picked up his teacup, filled it to the brim for Linghu Qiannian, then poured one for himself and took a small sip.

He had only asked the question casually.

but,

Linghu Qiannian's expression turned serious.

"The Kwantung Army entered the Hanzhong area by landing in the southern Fujian region, and infiltrated with 80,000 troops!"

"Among them, 30,000 troops joined forces with Prince Li Ben of Han, and they provided Prince Li Ben of Han with a large number of Japanese weapons."

"The other 50,000 troops bypassed Wuchang Prefecture and went directly to Xiangyang to join up with Prince Ning, Li Mu."

"If these Japanese are not eliminated, they will always be a hidden danger."

Chen Jie was quite surprised upon hearing this.

According to intelligence from Ximen Tang's "undercover unit," all that is known is that 30,000 troops of the Kwantung Army have already infiltrated the Hanzhong region.

but,

To Chen Jie's surprise, there were 80,000 troops.

It seems the Kwantung Army has grand ambitions and ambitious plans!

After occupying the Northeast, they suffered a major defeat in Songjiang Prefecture, so they simply abandoned the fierce battle with Ximentang and began to overthrow the imperial power of the Daqian Dynasty from within.

Simultaneously,

They wanted to divide and conquer them one by one by internal division.

It must be said that the Japanese had suffered two major losses at the hands of Nishida and had learned their lesson.

This collaboration between the Kwantung Army and Prince Han, Li Ben, demonstrates a significant shift in the Kwantung Army's tactics.

They provided the most advanced Japanese weapons to the various rebel armies of the Great Qian Dynasty, enabling them to fight to the death with Ximen Tang, and then reaped the benefits.

Chen Jie thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice:

"Whether it was Li Ben, the Prince of Han, Li Mu, the Prince of Ning, or even Li Chuang, the Prince of Shu, their fate was sealed the moment they chose to cooperate with the Japanese!"

"The Japanese thought that by cooperating with the rebels, they could sit back and watch the tigers fight. They were too naive."

"Once we, Ximentang, are free to deal with the situation, we will completely crush the Eastern Fleet."

Linghu Qiannian nodded without saying anything more.

At this time,

The restaurant owner stepped forward and began to have the dishes served.

Although he was so frightened by the fierce battle that he turned pale and trembled uncontrollably.

but,

The shopkeeper was, after all, a man who had seen a lot and had experienced various negotiations and battles between gangs in Xianning Prefecture.

In his mind, Chen Jie and Linghu Qiannian's Imperial Guards and Ximen Hall Personal Guards were fighting against the Japanese ninjas today.

A fierce battle is not much different from a gang fight.

Although the combat effectiveness of the replica AK47 assault rifles used by the Ximentang Guard shocked everyone.

but,

Essentially, it was a bloody fight between the two sides, resulting in deaths, and it seemed not much different from a gang war.

Therefore,
When the fierce battle ended, the storm also stopped.

He quickly had the waiter tidy up the surrounding area and then started having the kitchen serve the dishes.

Since the fierce fight just now took place in the restaurant's main hall, it didn't have much impact on the kitchen.

The shopkeeper composed himself and personally greeted everyone.

After a few minutes,
Chen Jie began to prepare a welcoming feast for Linghu Qiannian's arrival.

It was as if the fierce battle that had just taken place had never happened.

The tense and oppressive atmosphere quickly became relaxed!
