All Heavens: Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts Starting from the Republic of China

Upon seeing this, the red-eyed wild dogs and large rats roared and pounced on them, baring their teeth.

Fu Ze sneered, neither dodging nor avoiding, his muscles tense, his strength concealed within.

We were already prepared!

He had just launched a sneak attack and succeeded in injuring the white-haired rat demon while pinning it to the wall, all so he could free up his hands to deal with these minions first.

Otherwise, any interference from the side could be fatal when fighting the rat demon!

When the first stray dog, the biggest and fiercest, lunged at him, Fu Ze swerved to the side, dodging its fangs. Then, with a swift motion, he thrust his elbow into the dog's belly.

Lunge and elbow strike!

Awooo...

With a scream, the wild dog was sent flying as if struck by a thousand-pound hammer, crashing into the stone wall with a cracking sound as its bones shattered. It then fell to the ground, twitched a couple of times, and died.

The remaining stray dogs swarmed forward, brandishing their claws and teeth.

Fu Ze's feet moved in rapid succession, his movements as agile as a tiger, bringing the close-quarters combat and fierce power of Bajiquan to their fullest potential.

Horizontal punches, left and right!

Vajra splits the mountain!

Chain Hammer!

After learning the "Hum and Ha Breath" technique, Fu Ze constantly nourished his bone marrow and internal organs with sound, and his kung fu improved extremely quickly. When he used Bajiquan, the sound of his fists and feet cutting through the air was deafening, and each strike was like a heavy hammer, breaking bones and rupturing tendons when it hit a wild dog.

Bang, bang, bang...

Every punch landed squarely, the wild dog howled in pain, and blood splattered everywhere.

In just a few moments, they were all turned into four corpses.

The two gray rats, not to be outdone, pounced from the left and right, squeaking and squealing. Black venom dripped from their teeth, sizzling and smoking as it fell to the ground.

Upon getting close, it leaped up and bit into Fu Ze's arms!

"Well done!"

Fu Ze snorted coldly, quickly formed hand seals, spiritual energy surged at his fingertips, and he tossed a talisman forward.

The talisman emitted a pale golden halo, which swept over the rat swarm like flames.

Rats are afraid of fire. What's more, this is fire activated by a sorcerer's spiritual energy, which is even more effective against these evil creatures than real flames!

The two large gray rats, touched by the light, immediately squeaked in agony, their bodies billowing smoke, and instantly burned to a charred black.

In the time it takes to breathe, all six of the white-haired rat demon's "underlings" were wiped out!

But it is about to break free.

Just now, the white-haired rat demon was pinned to the wall by Fu Ze with a lightning-struck jujube wood magic dagger. After a brief moment of shock and anger, it immediately tried to grab the hilt of the dagger with its claws and pull it out with all its might!

Jujube wood is the most yang in nature.

In terms of the "yang" aspect alone, which restrains evil spirits, it is even stronger than peach wood.

Furthermore, after being struck by lightning, it contains traces of the power of thunder.

Therefore, even touching lightning-struck jujube wood will cause a strong sense of discomfort for evil spirits.

What's more, it was stabbed directly into the body!

The combined power of heavenly thunder and the sorcerer's spiritual energy relentlessly attacked it from within its body.

Therefore, one can imagine the pain this white-haired rat demon was in.

squeak...

Accompanied by angry and painful cries, the white-haired rat demon finally pulled out the lightning-struck jujube wood magic dagger at the same time that Fu Ze killed all his "minions".

When it was pulled out, there was a "plop" sound!

Eerie black blood gushed out instantly.

When the jujube wood at the edge of the wound was struck by lightning, it immediately hissed and emitted plumes of black smoke.

The rat demon cried out in pain, landing with a sharp, piercing screech. Its white fur bristled, making it appear several times larger. Its thick tail lashed the ground violently, sending pebbles flying.

"squeak--!"

The piercing shriek contained a strong killing intent, causing dust to fall from the walls of the tomb.

The flame of the eternal lamp flickered violently, its dark red light flashing on and off.

Fu Ze's eyes were cold.

He had gained the upper hand with his sneak attack, but this white-haired rat demon was highly skilled in cultivation and possessed profound demonic power; his injuries were far from fatal.

"It seems we still need to have a real fight."

With a flick of his fingertips, Fu Ze connected and drew in spiritual energy.

Swish!

The lightning-struck jujube wood dagger that had fallen to the ground flew up through the air and landed back in Fu Ze's hand.

The white-haired rat demon's eyes were blood red.

A sickening sound rang out, and its claws and teeth grew rapidly.

Fu Zene could clearly sense that the demonic energy within the rat demon was becoming increasingly violent and frenzied...

"You wicked beast, you have entrenched yourself in this place, wantonly taking lives. Today is your death day!"

Fu Ze gave a low shout and took the initiative to attack.

He held a talisman between his fingertips, and with his other hand, he made a sword-like gesture and pointed forward.

"Maoshan suppresses demons, Southern Altar divine fire, by imperial decree!"

The talisman burned to ashes, from which a faint red flame burst forth, hurtling straight toward the rat demon's face.

Cool!

Fu Ze thought to himself, "I've never fought such a rich battle before!"

In his own world, spiritual energy was always limited to a few strands, requiring meticulous calculation and extreme caution when casting spells and using talismans. He feared that the spiritual energy in his [Niwan Palace] would be easily depleted, taking more than half a month to recover...

But here, with his current cultivation level and spell power, he has more spiritual energy than he can use!

So there was no need to calculate anymore; he immediately unleashed the [Maoshan Southern Altar Evil-Repelling Divine Fire Spell]!

The white-haired rat demon roared as it saw the flames rushing towards it, but instead of dodging, it opened its mouth and spewed out a cloud of pitch-black demonic energy, which was cold and piercing.

It went straight for Fu Ze's [Maoshan Southern Altar Evil-Repelling Divine Fire Incantation]!

Even a clay figure has some temper, let alone this rat demon who is used to bullying others.

On the very night of its "wedding ceremony," it was about to absorb enough of the living souls to advance its cultivation to the next level. But then, this damned sorcerer not only interrupted it but also launched a despicable sneak attack!

How could I possibly tolerate this!

Whoosh... Bang!

The dark, demonic aura collided with the pale red flames, exploding in the air into a ball of fire and black mist the size of a water vat.

Fu Ze staggered back a few steps.

He was also somewhat surprised.

This [Maoshan Southern Altar Evil-Repelling Divine Fire Spell] is one of his most powerful offensive spells to date. When he used it with full force when his spiritual energy was abundant, it was actually blocked head-on by the injured rat demon.

It's clear that the other party is indeed formidable!

If I hadn't succeeded in launching a surprise attack first, I probably would have been at a disadvantage.

Even after the rat demon blocked the divine fire spell, it didn't fare well.

Its abdomen was pierced by a lightning-struck jujube wood dagger, and the wound could not heal. It had to fight hastily and had no time to recover, so it was in excruciating pain.

But this also ignited her ferocity!

It spewed demonic energy to deflect the talisman, and seeing Fu Ze stagger backward, it immediately charged forward. It leaped high in front of Fu Ze, whipping its tail—as hard as iron—with a whistling wind, aiming for Fu Ze's head!

If that whip lands squarely, Fu Ze's head will be shattered, or at least his skin will be torn open and his flesh mangled.

But Fu Ze was prepared!

In that instant, he suddenly lowered his body and used the "Iron Bridge" move from Bajiquan—bending his waist backward to almost form a right angle with his legs, narrowly avoiding the rat's tail.

At the same time, he clenched his right fist and unleashed a burst of hidden power.

A straight punch and hammer strike came from below, aiming directly at the wound in the rat demon's abdomen!

boom!

A powerful punch, a solid, direct hit.

At the same time, a trace of the spiritual energy covering the fist also flowed into the rat demon's body through the wound, causing it to go mad with pain.

The attack missed its mark, and the rat demon landed forward.

Then it quickly turned around and pounced, its sharp claws gleaming with a dark, eerie light, aiming straight for Fu Ze's throat.

Instead of retreating, Fu Ze advanced, using the "Iron Mountain Lean" move from Bajiquan, using his shoulder as the point of attack, and forcefully rammed into the rat demon's chest and abdomen.

With a muffled thud, the immense forces collided, and blood trickled from the corner of Fu Ze's mouth.

His strength, honed by a master of internal energy, failed to send the white-haired rat demon flying!

This shows how powerful this beast is.

But Fu Ze also took advantage of the impact to make a risky move, grabbing the rat demon's forelimbs with his left hand and holding the lightning-struck jujube wood magic dagger with his right hand!

Insert it again!

Insert repeatedly!

He forcefully stabbed into the wound he had just been in.

"squeak--!"

The rat demon's wound tore open even wider, and it writhed wildly in pain.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Fu Ze loosened his grip and retreated. He quickly pulled out a yellow talisman from his pocket with his left hand, and condensed a wisp of spiritual energy at the tip of his right finger to guide the talisman, casting another [Maoshan Southern Altar Evil-Repelling Divine Fire Spell].

call……

Boom!

This time, the white-haired rat demon didn't have time to dodge and was hit.

The pale red flames struck its back, causing a deafening explosion and a blinding flash of light.

squeak--

The rat demon was blasted forward and crashed to the ground. The fur on its entire back was singed, turning a dark charcoal color.

Now, it's white in the front and black in the back.

Fu Ze mocked.

"This design is nice. If it were in my hometown, it might be mistaken for a panda and kept as a national treasure in a zoo."

The rat demon couldn't understand what he was saying, but he could clearly sense the mockery in his tone, and he was furious.

They launched a reckless attack on Fu Ze!

Despite its severe injuries, it remained agile, maneuvering nimbly within the confined space of the tomb, using its claws, fangs, and tail in a coordinated attack that was deadly.

Fu Ze didn't have time to create distance to cast spells or runes, so he could only rely on Bajiquan close-quarters combat, and for a time the fight became evenly matched.

……

boom!

Fu Ze was caught off guard and was struck on the shoulder by a rat's tail that looked like a steel whip. A sharp pain shot through him, his shoulder blade felt as if it were shattering, and half of his body went numb instantly.

He groaned, took two steps back, and a trickle of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth. At the same time, he immediately tensed his muscles and forcefully closed the wound.

"I was careless."

Thankfully, it wasn't a henchman, otherwise it might have already been poisoned.

The rat demon launched a desperate counterattack, its ferocity far exceeding expectations.

However, it is clearly already at its last gasp!

"It's time to end this..."

Fu Ze took a deep breath and mobilized all the remaining 80% of the spiritual energy in his Niwan Palace!

He held a lightning-struck jujube wood dagger in his right hand, a talisman in his left, and chanted incantations in a low voice.

"Heaven and earth are boundless, the universe borrows its power, the fiery sword burns the demon, so be it!"

This is not the "Maoshan Dharma Altar Southern Transmission Great Manifestation of Powerful Magic Techniques", but rather the magic techniques from the "Shangqing Lingbao Cave Divine Orthodox Method".

Fu Ze only knows this one skill.

This is, in theory, his strongest killing move!

Why is it theoretical?

Because before activating the [Order of the Heavens] to travel to this world, Fu Ze had already "learned" this spell and had simulated it repeatedly in his mind.

but……

The amount of spiritual energy he could originally store in his [Niwan Palace] was simply insufficient to support him in casting this spell!

The moment he started, he was completely drained.

Therefore, Fu Ze never actually used it.

This is the first time!

The talisman burned into a raging flame!

It was no longer a pale red flame formed from spiritual energy, but a real, burning flame.

Then, the flames automatically enveloped the lightning-struck jujube wood magic dagger in his hand...

"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands! Go!"

Fu Ze pushed forward.

The magic dagger, wreathed in scorching flames, flew forward at incredible speed, aiming straight for the white-haired rat demon.

The rat demon immediately fled and hid.

But it never expected that the magic dagger could actually turn!

That's right, this move can completely lock onto its demonic aura and track it on its own.

This is also why it consumes a huge amount of spiritual energy...

Therefore, the flaming magic dagger made a sharp right-angle turn and continued to stab at the rat demon.

After repeating this several times, it finally pierced the throat of the white-haired rat demon!

boom!

The rat demon was engulfed in flames and writhed wildly in agony.

Its mournful screech was so loud it made people's eardrums ache.

While you are sick, I will kill you!

Taking advantage of the moment when the rat demon was distracted by the pain, Fu Ze steadied himself, twisted his waist sharply, and unleashed the Bajiquan killing move, "Sky-Piercing Cannon"!

This move originates from the ground, starts in the legs, flows through the waist, and reaches the fist, possessing extremely strong explosive power. It is specifically designed to blast enemies away at close range.

boom--!

A punch imbued with hidden strength and spiritual energy slammed into the rat demon's chest.

The rat demon's enormous body flew five or six meters away like a burning kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the stone wall of the tomb.

Click!

The stone wall instantly cracked open in several places, and rubble rolled down.

The rat demon slid down the stone wall and lay sprawled on the ground. Its body twitched a few more times before ceasing to move. Its rat eyes lost all luster, and its body, charred and shriveled rapidly.

Finally, we killed him!

Fu Ze supported himself on his knees, panting heavily. His shoulder wound was throbbing with pain, and his body was covered in black blood and dust, making him look utterly disheveled.

This battle of wits was extremely difficult!

He not only suffered external injuries, but also exhausted his spiritual energy, and his blood and energy were over-circulated, leaving his muscles and bones aching all over.

Only the [Decree of All Heavens] on his chest was burning hot and trembling slightly with a buzzing sound.

Then, wisps of black demonic energy and semi-transparent remnant souls drifted out from the rat demon's corpse and were completely absorbed by the [Decree of All Heavens].

Fu Ze didn't have time to check at that moment.

He planned to wait until he returned to the inn in town before slowly considering the benefits he had gained from killing the rat demon.

Fu Ze walked toward the unconscious girl in the corner, preparing to take her away from the ancient tomb as soon as possible.

Just then, a crisp sound came from the stone wall behind them that had been hit by the rat demon.

click-

The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear.

Fu Ze's eyes narrowed, and he instantly became alert, turning to look at the stone wall.

The crack had widened further, and stone chips continued to fall down, suggesting that the inside was hollow.

"Is there actually another space on the other side of this main burial chamber?"

Fu Ze was puzzled, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly stepped forward.

He stretched out his finger and gently tapped the stone wall, which produced a hollow echo.

It was indeed hollow in the back!

"What happened?"

Fu Ze frowned.

"Was this ancient tomb originally a unique double-chamber structure, or did the two tombs just happen to be buried together?"

At this moment...

A chilling, violent, and sinister aura, even more sinister than that of the rat demon, seeped out from the crack in the stone wall.

Ok?

Fu Ze's heart skipped a beat.
