Chapter 364: Military Training

Woo~
Behind the Upside-Down Mountain, in front of the Xuanjing Gate Archway, a gentle breeze blows.

Li Yuan did not rush in, but leaned against the archway, closed his eyes slightly, and began to match the palm-control combination, sorting it out, and pondering.

After a moment, a gleam of light appeared in his eyes:

The light curtain is like a waterfall, and all the words are shining brightly.

The Sea-Splitting Black Whale Hammer, the Scarlet Blood-Patterned Dragon Armor, the Divine Fire Ten Thousand Forging Hammer, the Divine Fire Hundred Beasts Boots, the three Thunder Dragon Sky-Strong Hammers, except for the Mountain-Sinking Hammer, the worst ones are quasi-divine weapons!

Thirty-one palm controls are added to the body. This is the strongest palm control combination that Li Yuan has currently put together, taking into account attack, self-defense, and speed.

"The day when all the divine weapons are complete is not far away!"

Counting the various control effects, Li Yuan felt a sense of security like a hamster counting its food reserves before winter. This was his biggest trump card.

What Black Whale Hammer Master? I am the Master of Military Forces!
"Unfortunately, due to the limitation of physique and true energy, I can't fully bear the Sea-Splitting Mysterious Whale Hammer. Otherwise, the Grandmaster can still defeat me."

Feeling all kinds of blessings, the haze in Li Yuan's heart was swept away. All his fears and anxieties came from lack of strength, and he was accumulating his own strength.

"Once I kill the old ghost in the Thousand Spirits Saving People Monument, I will be able to collect eight magic weapons!"

The more he looked at the light screen, the more pleasing it was to the eyes. Li Yuan looked at it over and over again. The only thing that caught his eye was his own bones.

"The best among men are not worthy of this combination of palm control, but it shouldn't be long before my own talent reaches peerless level!"

Li Yuan knew what was going on. The superposition of his mastery talents allowed him to understand all the changes from being a rare talent among humans to a second-level talent that was unparalleled in the history of the world:
"By then, if I can control the Black Whale Hammer and other divine weapons that enhance my talent, can my talent break through the category of unparalleled in the ages?"

If he thought about it a little more, he felt it was very likely.

hum~
Li Yuan took a step forward slowly, and a stone tablet rose up in the archway. Words flowed on it, still the Sea-Splitting Divine Script, but it was exactly the same as what he had seen before.

In front of the stone tablet, mist was rising, and a passage that seemed to be made of clouds was slowly forming.

"After the Tianyun Xuanbing, these relic sects are much more powerful than the current Dao Sect. Only the second-level masters who have never appeared in the history are qualified to become the true disciples..."

Three battles and three wins is the true meaning.

This is the rule of the Yangsheng Sect. Li Yuan guessed that the Xuanjing Sect was similar. As for the former, he had challenged them twice before and lost both battles.

Even with all this control, it is extremely difficult to maintain an undefeated streak, even for a short period of time.

"According to Daoist Master Long, the rewards for passing these trials are related to the relic sects. The elixir recipe is only available in the Yangsheng Sect..."

Li Yuan's mind was distracted, but he took a step back. When he crossed the archway again, he walked in with his own talent.

hum~
The words on the stone tablet changed and Li Yuan interpreted them according to his memory:

"The best among men, the outer sect trial. Well, let's try the outer sect trial first and see the rewards of the Xuanjing Sect's trial!"

"Woo~"

A breeze blew by, and Li Yuan walked into the passage for the outer gate trial.

He looked around and found that the passages were actually all the same. Sometimes divine words flashed on the walls, and sometimes light and shadow scrolls flashed.

"The Black Whale Sect."

Li Yuan muttered to himself, wrote down what he could remember, and then walked away quickly.

After the passage, there was still the huge fighting arena, which was almost no different from the trial fields of the True Transmission Trial and the Health Preservation Sect. He couldn't help but wonder if this was the same trial site.

"It's hard to say about the other Xuanbing, but the relationship between Yangsheng Sect and Xuanjing Sect is probably very close..."

Li Yuan was very casual about the fight that did not involve any casualties. Recalling the similarities between the two sects, he guessed, "It can't be the relationship between Longhu Temple, Humen, and Dalongmen, right?"

Woo~
When Li Yuan walked into the martial arts arena, footsteps were heard from the opposite passage. The face of the person was still unclear due to the mist, but compared with the giants in the true trial, this person was still within the range of normal people.

"Om~"

Li Yuan heard the sound of swords. Behind the person coming from the opposite side, there were seven swords on his back. As he took a step, the seven swords spread out like a peacock spreading its tail, and then shot out.

Chi chi chi~
The sounds of seven gas explosions merged into one.

Under Li Yuan's gaze, the swords rose up like dragons, moving extremely fast and flexibly, just like seven top swordsmen performing superb swordsmanship together.

And cooperate with each other to form a sword formation.

"Are all the outer disciples so fierce?!"

Li Yuan's eyelids jumped. He originally thought that he could sweep past him, but who would have thought that this swordsman was at least at the level of successful blood exchange, and his true energy was surging.
Like an invisible giant hand, it manipulates seven long swords at the same time and performs seven kinds of superior sword techniques!
"Shh!"

Li Yuan took a step back, stretched out his hand and grabbed a long-handled heavy hammer from the weapon rack next to him, stepped forward, and without activating the weapon talisman, he just mobilized the Thunder Dragon Qi and shot out.

Without dodging or evading, he was hit head on by a hammer.

"Oh!"

With one blow of the hammer, the sword light exploded.

Master Li Dao was also a man who had been through hundreds of battles, so he naturally knew that he couldn't engage in a fight with them. He fought back with every move, and after more than ten moves, he had knocked the seven swords to the ground.

laugh!
The next moment, the seven long swords jumped up again, the sword lights turned, and they merged into one, turning into a long sword, and its speed increased dramatically.

It was like a flying sword in the legend, circling around the neck.

"Oh!"

Li Yuan only glanced at him with the corner of his eye, and the heavy hammer came down, blasting the swordsman who was dodging with lightness skill into a rain of light. When it comes to lightness skill, even without the blessing of the weapon-controlling talisman, he is also first-rate.

"Puff~" After the swordsman exploded, the seven long swords also dispersed into rain of light, which made Li Yuan feel a little regretful. He also wanted to see how the seven swords could be combined into one.

hum~
A moment later, a stone tablet rose in the middle of the arena, covered with the Sea-Splitting Divine Text. Li Yuan changed his hands and used the [Divine Fire Bone Tempering Ring (fifth level)] to memorize all the words.

Then, he took the animal skin scroll that floated down from the air.

“Is this a martial art?”

Li Yuan's eyes lit up. He waited for a while and found that no new opponents appeared, but the passage behind him was shaking, so he turned and left.

After returning to the Upside-Down Mountain, he replaced the Black Whale Hammer. The trembling sound of the Black Whale Spirit instantly spread like rumbling thunder, but quickly subsided.

After many fruitless resistances, the tolerance of the Black Whale Spirit has greatly increased.

"translate."

Li Yuan had already carved the words in the arena on the ground and asked the Black Whale Spirit to translate them word by word. He was very interested in the Sea-Splitting Divine Text.

[Trialist Li Yuan passed the outer sect assessment... and became an outer sect disciple of Xuanjing Sect]

[Gift: Hammer of the Military Training Sutra]

"The Art of Raising Soldiers? Is this part of a martial art?"

The translation of the Black Whale Spirit was halting, but Li Yuan barely managed to extract the important parts. After pondering for a while, he took out the animal skin scroll.

A thin piece of animal skin was covered with the sea-splitting divine characters that looked like ghostly scribbles. They were so detailed and dense that there were probably thousands of words.

This time, the translation of the Black Whale Spirit was even slower. It took him more than an hour to decipher only a small part of it, and there were many terms in it that he did not understand at all.

"This is obviously different from any martial arts I have learned."

Li Yuan pondered it for a moment and frowned.

The terminology in the secret manuals is not universal, and each sect has its own terms. This is something that was created to prevent the sect's martial arts from leaking out. Without the guidance of someone from the sect, it would be not only extremely difficult but also very dangerous to decipher the meaning.

"Wait until everything is deciphered and then take a look."

The Black Whale Spirit was still translating slowly, with words popping out in the air one by one. Li Yuan watched for a while and simply stood up. Taking advantage of this time, he prepared to try the inner sect trial again.

"Om~"

With each step, Li Yuan activated three Thunder Dragon Juntian Hammers, and the passage behind the archway changed instantly.

[Inner Gate Trial]

This time, the Black Whale Spirit reacted very quickly, and the Hammer Spirit seemed very eager to participate in the trial.

"After the trial is completed, it will not appear again. However, this outer door trial is simple, and it can be passed in one battle. If the inner door is two battles, then it can be passed a few more times, right?"

After taking a look at the Black Whale Spirit who was still translating the secret book, with the scarlet hand hammer constantly jumping in the air, Li Yuan did not delay and walked into the inner gate for the trial.

……

The same passage, the same fighting arena, the difference is that the opponents in the inner gate trial are much stronger.

Along with the sound of muffled footsteps, a giant man walked out from the opposite side. He was over three meters tall, full of energy and blood, with a strong aura. His arms, which were thicker than his waist, were wrapped with black chains.

He carried a huge meteor hammer on his back.

"With peerless talent and great blood transfusion skills, I'm afraid he's not inferior to Senior Brother Long."

Li Yuan was slightly surprised.

This time, he did not dare to be careless. He immediately activated the Weapon Control Scroll. With the help of the weapon control talisman, he also picked up the largest hammer, stepped forward, and took the initiative to attack.

boom!
Boom!

There was a loud roar in the arena.

Along with the sound of the iron chain rustling, the meteor hammer whizzed back and forth like a real meteor. Even though Li Yuan controlled three Thunder Dragon Hammers, he couldn't gain much advantage.

In the end, he relied on the rapid burst of power granted by the 'Beast Spirit Boots' to break into the shadow of the meteor hammer and blew up the giant hammer-wielding man with his heavy hammer.

"What kind of person is so strong?"

After the battle, Li Yuan's body of true energy was already flickering, and the recoil force of the collision almost took him away.

This really frightened him.

The heavy hammers supported by the three Thunder Dragon Juntian Hammers, the recoil force from multiple hard hits almost killed him, but the giant man actually withstood his hundreds of hammers.

"The Hundred Beasts Spirit Boots have done their job."

Li Yuan's heart relaxed. This time, he heard the strange sound coming from outside the arena, and a stone tablet rose up not far away, covered with the Sea-Splitting Divine Text.

He memorized it silently, and after reading it once, he was already distracted.

His attention was focused on what was behind the stone tablet.

There was a huge hammer that was taller than him, completely black and full of edges and corners, with an iron chain as thick as a waist wrapped around it.

It was the meteor hammer that the giant had just used!
