Swallowing the Stars: Reboot, The Eternal Serpent!

Chapter 13 The Jiang Family's Foundation!

Clang—Clang—

The train sped across the open fields, and in the VIP carriage at the back, an old man and a young man sat facing each other.

Jiang Zhe touched the S-class combat suit on his body, a little dazed. Before he could react, his martial arts journey had begun in a hurry.

More than half an hour ago.

……

Jiang Lie: "You've completed the construction of your 'Xingyi School' in just ten days?"

The old man's dough twitched, giving off a somewhat dreamlike feeling.

Ouch! My tooth hurts!

This kid accomplished in ten days what I've worked for the past fifty or sixty years!

Here we need to talk about the characteristics of the Jiang family's secret techniques.

The Jiang family's unique skills are not like the ultimate secret manuals of Hong and the Thunder God, which are a complete set, with each level perfectly connected, and one can ascend to the heavens by simply following the steps.

It consists of seven sets of secret manuals, each rated S or SS, and they are closely connected.

The strongest form is the "Six Arts," which integrate all the power, allowing each movement to reach an extremely high level of power.

Just like Jiang Wu, who chose to focus on the three true forms of "Tiger + Bear + Eagle", while using a different movement technique for the lower body.

I have dabbled in the "Chicken Step" but did not dare to choose it as my major.

With his level of understanding, he would be unable to control any more force at this stage, and the Xingyi system he had painstakingly built would collapse.

Jiang Sisi specializes in the two true forms of "Tiger + Chicken", following a path of lightness, speed and crispness, with movements as swift as the wind and swiftness of her blade.

To put it another way, the Jiang family's secret techniques are like a clumsy child.

I'm not as smart as you, but I have more "poor student" "stationery" and I work hard enough to create a series of "low-level" secret manuals.

The core concept is to achieve qualitative change through quantitative change!

Jiang Zhe executed this very well in just ten days. By his time, he had collected all five external forms of "Tiger + Bear + Eagle + Dragon + Rooster" and was close to graduating.

Jiang Zhe nodded and then shook his head, saying, "I don't think so. I'm still missing 'Thunder Sound,' and the details of each true form are also lacking."

"My second brother and sister Sisi taught me how to ride the bear, eagle, and chicken; I learned how to ride the dragon by myself these past two days using the manual; and I just learned how to ride the tiger."

Versailles' words made everyone in the training hall harden their fists.

Jiang Chengxiong: My own son! I can't hit him!

Jiang Chengbo and Jiang Chengying: Nephews! We can't hit them!

Jiang Wu, Jiang Sisi: My cousin! I can't beat him!

Grandpa Jiang was even more satisfied, especially when he heard Jiang Zhe practicing the "Six Harmonies Dragon Spear" technique. His eyes lit up and a chill ran through his body.

Practicing shooting is good; it raises your skill ceiling.

It should be noted that the Jiang family's only two SS-level secret manuals are the "Six Harmonies Dragon Spear" and the "White Tiger Wind-Calling Blade".

But the former is stronger; when trained to its perfect limit, it can unleash five times the power.

Moreover, the origin of this gun technique can be considered to be in the same lineage as Hong's "Destroy the World".

He himself doesn't have that ability, but if his grandson Jiang Zhe is talented enough, he might be able to glimpse Hong's secret!

Jiang Lie immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't come into contact with 'thunder' yet. It's a breathing technique, similar to the chants used when doing hard labor. It's considered an extra question in the 'Six Arts'."

Then, with a slightly more serious tone, he asked, "Are you sure you'll be using guns from now on?"

"I like long weapons, and heavy weapons, they... are fascinating!" This was the result of Jiang Zhe's serious consideration.

"Using power to intimidate people!" Old Master Jiang summarized with a smile.

Jiang Zhe licked his lips and smiled shyly.

I have to say, I've been itching to smash something these past few days. Using the iron whip is so satisfying, it's like being a skull-crushing maniac!

However, it's not quite good enough as a primary weapon.

Then Jiang Zhe set his sights on the king of weapons—the spear. It just so happened that he needed to cultivate the core of his body's strength, the waist and hips, which was a perfect match for the "Six Harmonies Dragon Spear"!

Of course, one must remember—the whip is for entertainment, the gun is for life!

"Good! Good! Very good!" Jiang Lie exclaimed repeatedly. "A spear and a whip, right?"

"Old Wu, go and fetch my two treasures."

"Also, pack the documents of 'Six Harmonies Dragon Spear' and 'Black Tiger Whip Technique', along with the corresponding video materials, into the tablet computer. I'll be taking them with me later."

He glanced at Jiang Zhe again and continued, "Go and prepare a complete set of S-grade equipment, the size of which should be based on Xiao Zhe's build. It's all for him, since he'll be coming with me to the wilderness area later."

Jiang Zhe: ? ? ?

……

On the train heading towards the Southern Military Region, Jiang Zhe had already accepted the fact that he was about to hastily begin a period of training.

Even... I find it sweet.

Killing monsters can bring you benefits.

I'm not talking about earthly currencies, but rather hard currency that can help elevate one's life's genetic level.

For him, the sooner he completes the cultivation of the "Blueprint of Life," the more benefits he will receive.

The reverie continued for a while.

Jiang Zhe shifted his attention to the two "treasures" his grandfather had brought, his eyes full of curiosity.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Two four-sided gold maces lay horizontally on the table, their surfaces engraved with rough, blurry, and simple "redundant" patterns.

The moment Jiang Zhe saw them, his heart couldn't help but pound.

Based on his "experience," the two golden maces were likely Force weapons, as they were surrounded by fluctuations similar to those around his grandfather!

There was also a long spear, placed at an angle beside Grandpa.

Jiang Zhe licked his lips. He had realized that he was now facing the Jiang family's deep-rooted power!

The spear is not a Force weapon; it lacks that special charm, which Jiang Zhe is certain of, but the materials used to forge it are definitely not ordinary.

In other words, it comes from the universe.

Not everyone in the universe uses Force weapons; their price tag of hundreds of millions or even billions of Black Dragon Coins is daunting, and these are only first- or second-tier Force weapons.

Therefore, many down-on-their-luck martial artists use weapons made of alloys, specifically those metals that are divided into five grades: A, B, C, D, and E, corresponding to the various realms before immortality.

The dark silver metal spear was over eight feet long and had an extraordinary design, as if a dragon had been carved onto it.

The base of the spear is shaped like a dragon's tail, while the spear body is covered with dragon scale patterns and inlaid with eight gemstones, making it dazzling and easier to handle. The key spearhead is the dragon's head, and the spear tip is the "sharp tongue" spat out by the dragon.

There's also a hollow, through-hole running from the spearhead to the shaft. This terrifying blood groove, if it were to pierce an opponent, would be a fatal wound...

A deadly weapon!

terror!

But this gun is way too long.

With a length of about 2.6 meters, even if I were 1.8 meters tall at the age of 16, it would be inconvenient to use unless I could grow to 2 meters tall.

Ahem... Jiang Zhe's filial piety is commendable; he's already thinking about "taking over."

Actually, compared to the golden mace, which is suspected to be a Force weapon, isn't this spear just slightly more exquisite? Like a work of art?

No! No! No!

What truly shocked and intrigued Jiang Zhe was the "metal pendant" the size of a monkey's head, attached to the bottom of the spearhead by a thumb-thick iron chain.

He recognized the design of the gun—a skull-lifting gun!

Of course, the metal pendant is neither a weight nor a skull, but a rusty alchemical furnace.

Yes, a furnace-lifting gun.

He had seen the name of this gun in a book.

The treasure that the Jiang family uses to accelerate the cultivation of genetic energy is called "slag".

Coincidentally, Jiang Zhe could also sense the special fluctuations emanating from the alchemy furnace and see the mysterious patterns on the furnace body that even the rust could not conceal.
