Top-Class Insight: Start with Basic Fist Techniques-Chapter 12

Chapter 12

“Instant Kill Technique!”

Lu Changsheng executed the Instant Kill Technique.

His entire body crouched slightly, like a cheetah in the darkness.

Taking advantage of the split-second distraction when all three of them were focused on their target, he almost instantly covered the five-meter distance, appearing in front of the masked man.

“You…”

The masked man finally saw Lu Changsheng.

Unfortunately, he didn’t even have a chance to draw his sword.

A flash of white light, and Lu Changsheng’s dagger lightly sliced across the masked man’s throat.

“Splurt.”

With hardly any effort, the dagger cut through the masked man’s windpipe.

Instantly, blood spurted out, and the masked man dropped his weapon, desperately covering his throat with his hands, but unable to stop the blood from splattering.

“Thud.”

The package fell to the ground, and at the same time, the masked man collapsed.

“Is that it?”

Lu Changsheng shook his head.

Too weak.

The masked man in front of him couldn’t even withstand a single move.

Killing him was as easy as killing a chicken!

“Third Brother!”

The remaining two masked men, seeing their comrade lying in a pool of blood, had eyes that turned red, and their expressions contorted in anger.

“D*mn it, I’ll tear you apart!”

The two masked men roared in anger.

However, despite their apparent anger, the two of them didn’t rush forward but instead started stepping backward.

Seeking revenge for their comrade was just an empty threat.

Seeing that Lu Changsheng could easily cut their comrade’s throat with a blink of an eye, his speed and precision in combat were astounding.

Clearly, he was a master!

They were blocking the path and trying to kill such a skilled martial artist. Wasn’t that seeking death?

However, Lu Changsheng had no intention of letting these two go.

He had been cautious earlier because he didn’t know the strength of these three individuals.

But now, after taking action, he realized that their strength was quite ordinary, and he had no reason to hold back.

When dealing with enemies, he believed in eliminating them completely!

“Swoosh.”

Lu Changsheng leaped forward, covering several meters in a single step. In just a few movements, he caught up to the two masked men.

Seeing that they had nowhere to escape, the two men were filled with a fierce determination. They suddenly turned around and swung their swords at Lu Changsheng.

“Die!”

These two men directly blocked Lu Changsheng’s left and right directions, showing a high level of cooperation.

At this point, all he could do was retreat.

However, Lu Changsheng didn’t retreat.

There was a flash of determination in his eyes.

At the moment when the two men raised their swords, he unleashed his inner energy and blood.

“Boom.”

The energy and blood exploded.

For a martial artist, once their energy and blood exploded, it meant they were going all out.

The explosion of energy and blood caused Lu Changsheng’s speed to skyrocket instantly.

He was like a cheetah, his speed increasing several times in an instant.

Instead of retreating, he moved forward, like a gust of wind, he slipped out from under the swords of the two men and appeared in front of them.

“What?”

The two men were taken aback.

But Lu Changsheng wasn’t just fast in terms of movement; his attack was even faster.

“Swish, swish.”

Almost two white streaks flashed by.

Two streams of blood spurted from the men’s necks.

Lu Changsheng’s figure passed by the two men, and he slowly turned around, watching as the two men clutched their throats and fell to the ground, struggling.

A moment later, the two men lay motionless in the pool of blood.

Dead!

All three of them were dead.

“Is this all they had?”

Lu Changsheng shook his head.

Killing these three individuals took only a few breaths of time.

It was too easy.

Of course, maybe it wasn’t that these three men were too weak, but rather that he was too strong!

Or perhaps, it was his Instant Kill Technique that was too formidable.

All three of these men were at the Blood Strengthening Realm, and one of them should have been at the pinnacle of that realm.

Yet, they couldn’t even withstand a single move in front of him; they were instantly killed.

It showed just how powerful Lu Changsheng’s Instant Kill Technique was.

This kind of martial technique that could kill with a single blow was truly terrifying, and its true power was only evident when it was actually used.

Looking at the three corpses in the pool of blood, Lu Changsheng remained calm.

This wasn’t the first time he had killed someone, but it was the first time he had fought against martial artists.

It seemed that there wasn’t anything particularly special about it.

It was just like when he had killed those two ordinary bandits in the cave.

“Martial skills are important, but martial techniques are equally important! A highly skilled martial technique can change the course of a battle and determine the outcome!”

Lu Changsheng’s understanding of martial skills and martial techniques had deepened.

He approached the three bodies and carefully searched them.

After a brief search, he found over three hundred silver coins and some loose silver.

It was quite a decent sum; three hundred silver coins would be enough for him to purchase Eight Treasures Blood-Boosting Powder for quite some time.

“Hmm?”

“Is this… a Body Strengthening Realm martial skill?”

Suddenly, Lu Changsheng found a martial skill manual on one of the corpses.

It was called “Bull’s Body Forging Technique.”

This should have been the martial skill prepared by the Blood Strengthening Realm pinnacle martial artist because when one reached the pinnacle of the Blood Strengthening Realm, they had to start focusing on body forging.

Lu Changsheng looked around and saw no one nearby.

As for the three corpses, there was no need for him to deal with them.

In cases of grudges in the martial world, once the authorities discovered them, they would usually handle the bodies without much investigation.

Matters of the martial world stayed within the martial world; it was an unspoken agreement between the authorities and martial artists.

Lu Changsheng didn’t linger any longer and quickly disappeared into the night.

…

Nanyang City, Miaoshou Garden.

Lu Changsheng returned to his room.

He changed his clothes; he had just been emanating a cold and murderous aura, but now, in the attire of a medicinal apprentice at Miaoshou Garden, he had transformed into a small apprentice.

Who would have thought that this seemingly ordinary medicinal apprentice had just killed three fierce martial artists?

Lu Changsheng took out the “Bull’s Body Forging Technique” and the “Sixfold Blood Strengthening Technique.”

“The shopkeeper said that the Sixfold Blood Strengthening Technique is very difficult to practice. I wonder if I can practice it with my current comprehension?”

High-level martial arts were excellent, but only a few people could actually practice them.

Lu Changsheng began to attempt to move his energy and blood as described in the manual of the Sixfold Blood Strengthening Technique.

He remained incredibly calm in his mind.

The vocabulary in the manual, which was cryptic and hard to understand, seemed to be clear to him at a glance.

So, in just one hour, he had actually moved his blood and energy once.

“Is this considered a foundation?”

Lu Changsheng immediately checked his attribute panel.

Host: Lu Changsheng

Comprehension: 147 (average)

Instant Kill Technique: Mastery

Iron Sand Palm: Grand Mastery

Sixfold Blood Strengthening Technique: First Level

“It truly is a superior martial art. Just moving it once without using any medicinal supplements increased my blood and energy so much? The effect far surpasses that of the Grand River Vitality Technique!”

“However, it seems there’s a discrepancy with what the stall owner said. The Sixfold Blood-Boosting Technique doesn’t appear to be as difficult as she described. Perhaps it’s because of my high comprehension.”

“Since the Sixfold Blood-Boosting Technique isn’t as challenging, and the increase in blood and energy is so astonishing, I’ll continue to practice it until it’s perfected, and then consider advancing to Body Strengthening.”

Lu Changsheng had a clear plan for his martial arts journey.

However, the Sixfold Blood-Boosting Technique also required medicinal supplements.

So, the Eight Treasures Blood-Boosting Powder couldn’t be stopped; in fact, it needed to be increased.

This required silver coins, and a significant amount at that.

“There aren’t many medicinal herbs left in the valley, at most they can support for a while. I need to find a way to earn silver coins.”

Being poor in literature and rich in martial arts, the martial path became incredibly challenging without money.

However, he couldn’t think of a way to make money for the time being.

Lu Changsheng could only temporarily put it aside and wait to see if there would be any opportunities in the future.
