Shrouding the Heavens - Chapter 22: Bronze Coffin Driving Away Evil Spirits

What is martial arts?Martial Arts has nothing to do with musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, painting, treasures or secret manuals, nor is there so much talk about being the best in the world. Martial Arts is a technique, a method that gives the weak a chance to draw their blades against the strong.What is chivalry (xiá)?Chivalry is not about romantic affairs, traditional culture, or being gentle, respectful, frugal, and compliant. Chivalry is violence, it's the bayonet forged by those driven to Mount Liang to use against tyrants.Cao Mo pledged with a dagger, (Returning to) Lu to invade. Zhuan Zhu entered with grilled meat, (Pacifying) Wu to usurp the throne. Brother Zhang cried in the market, avenging his lord by defiling a lavatory. Suicide by cutting one's own throat to seek justice, acting while concealing his sleeve. The tyrant of Qin seized souls, the coward gained courage.This is a martial artist's story.In the 1930s, a group of like-minded young people came together, striving to change the world.Then, two hundred years later, in a garbage landfill, Xiang Shan, the Progenitor of Cyber Martial Arts who had once rebooted heaven and earth, woke up reciting the name of his enemy, having lost all his memories.“Perhaps it's because I lost back then that the world has become what it is...”“So this time, I won't be defeated again!”This is the story of a person changing the world once more!

The pathetic hero gets stronger by touching women's chests.As a reward for his “passionate feedback,” a bored god reincarnates him into that very world.Now, trapped in a story he loathes, Pierre is given a gift: a leveling system and a power far darker than the hero's “Boobie Boost.” His is called Essence Drain: a parasitic ability to steal power through physical contact, an intimate violation that feels dangerously good.The hero of this world can have the plot armor and the clichés. Pierre will use his intellect, his brutal new power, and his insider knowledge to hijack the story. His first move? Steal the hero's fated beautiful navigator before they can even meet.They call him a menace. A criminal. A terrorist. Fine. If fighting a world run by corrupt Marines and preening nobles makes him a villain...He'll become the greatest villain the world has ever seen.-----------Additional tags:No Incest, No Rape, No Yuri, Harem, No Loli, One Piece, Transmigration, Pirate, Pirates, Princess, Shonen, No NTR
