Chapter 664 Zhao Wushi

In fact, in the original novel of "Heroes of the Times", Ling Xiaotian is the protagonist.

He has also read almost all the original works in this martial arts world, including "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", "The World's Number One", "The Return of the Condor Heroes"...

According to the plot of "Heroes of the Clan", Ling Xiaotian must have relied on his familiarity with the original stories to plan various benefits and eventually become the strongest being in this world.

In “The Number One Under Heaven”, the opportunity that originally belonged to Cheng Shifei - he was sold to the palace as a eunuch by his bad friend, and eventually mistakenly entered the ninth level of the Heavenly Prison, and obtained the entire inheritance of his biological father Gu Santong - was all seized by Ling Xiaotian.

In other words, as soon as Ling Xiaotian appeared, he killed Cheng Shifei, replaced him into the palace, reached the ninth level of the Heavenly Prison, and became the successor of Gu Santong.

When Gu Santong was dying, due to years of harsh living environment and his old injuries becoming more and more serious, his martial arts skills declined instead of improving, and he only had about forty years left.

This skill should have been passed on to his biological son Cheng Shifei by chance.

But Ling Xiaotian, who suddenly appeared, got there first and obtained the forty years of skills, as well as the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, and even the Qi-absorbing Art.

One thing that must be pointed out here is that in the original plot of "The World's Number One", it was clearly mentioned that Gu Santong not only knows the "Vajra Indestructible Divine Art", but also the "Power Absorbing Art".

It was through the art of absorbing energy that he was able to absorb all the energy of the masters of various sects who were thrown into the ninth floor of the Heavenly Prison by Zhao Wusi to test their skills. In this way, he mastered a lot of martial arts from various sects, and then passed it on to Cheng Shifei.

After Ling Xiaotian obtained Gu Santong's inheritance, he did not follow his last wishes and became an enemy of the Iron-Hearted God King Zhao Wushen.

On the contrary, he went straight to Zhao Wusi and became Huang Zi's number one spy.

At the same time, with the help of the official position and identity granted by the court, he captured many masters of various sects and secretly devoured their skills.

Today, it has been only half a year since he traveled to the world of “Heroes of the Group”—he arrived about a month earlier than Chai Xin—but his skills have already reached an astonishing seventy years!

If we simply compare the numbers, the speed at which his skills improve is even faster than Chai Xin!

Of course, this is related to the fact that he does things at all costs, never caring about the other party's position when absorbing power, and only caring about improving himself.

Recently, many famous martial arts figures have died mysteriously in the martial arts world, and some of them were even pinned on the Gusu Murong family. In fact, it was Ling Xiaotian who did it!
After all, he inherited the legacy of Gu Santong, and he could also perform many secret skills of other sects.

However, although he also had more than seventy years of skills, what Ling Xiaotian practiced, after all, was only the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art and the Qi Absorbing Technique.

Although these two martial arts can be regarded as extraordinary achievements of the time, especially the former, when practiced to perfection, it is not inferior to the Beiming Divine Art of the Xiaoyao Sect.

However, if compared with Chai Xin's "Daoxuan Gong", it is far from being the same.

Although Chai Xin has just entered the realm of "Half-Step Grandmaster", his strength is enough to fight against most of those who have been stagnant at "Half-Step Grandmaster" for many years without losing.

Of course, there is the special bonus of "Daoxuan Gong", but there is also the blessing of his many years of martial arts experience.

Over the years, how many battles had he fought in? How many life-and-death crises had he faced?
His martial arts experience is so great that even if all the masters of the martial arts world were added together, they would not be able to match him even a fraction.

As for Ling Xiaotian, he was just an office worker in his previous life. He was able to travel through time by chance and it can be said that he has almost no combat experience.

In just half a year, he rose from an ordinary person who was powerless to become a half-step grandmaster - how much martial arts experience could he accumulate?

No matter how hard he has practiced and improved his kung fu over the past six months, at best he can only be compared with the elite disciples of the major sects, which would already be considered outstanding and extremely talented.

With his skills at the half-step grandmaster level, Ling Xiaotian might be able to easily suppress most people who are weaker than him.

But he could never be a match for any other being of the same level.

However, Chai Xin vaguely remembered that Ling Xiaotian seemed to have obtained some treasure, which gave him the opportunity to travel to this world.

He had no idea what the treasure was exactly, as he had only read the first few chapters.

But according to his speculation, it might be related to the origin of this world, or it might be some kind of treasure related to time and space.

Or maybe, it's both.

"What did you say, sir? I don't understand."

Ling Xiaotian forced himself to remain calm and asked back in a nonchalant tone.

But in fact, there was already a storm in his heart.

In fact, when he first heard the name of Chai Xin, he was a little confused. After all, in the many martial arts works he had read, there didn't seem to be such a character.

However, considering that this is a "comprehensive martial arts" work, it might contain characters from works he has never seen, so he did not take it too seriously.

It was not until Chai Xin took the lead, cracked the Zhenlong chess game, and became the new leader of the Xiaoyao Sect that he felt more and more that something was wrong.

The reason why it is said to be "one step ahead" is because he originally planned to come and crack the Zhenlong chess game.

However, he knew nothing about Go in his previous life. Even though he had read the original novel, the novel did not describe in detail how to crack the Zhenlong chess game.

During this period of time, he has been learning Go from the world's number one chess master in the world's number one village, and he even plans to invite the other party to come and see the treasure set up by Wuyazi.

Unfortunately, before his plan was completed, Chai Xin had already seized the initiative.

When Ling Xiaotian got the news, he was furious - Wuyazi had accumulated seventy years of skills!
Even if his own power-absorbing technique has reached a certain bottleneck and he is afraid that he cannot absorb all of the opponent's power, it can definitely bring a great improvement to himself.

But he was beaten to it by a guy like Chai Xin who came out of nowhere.

How could he not be angry?
Chai Xin stood on the high platform, looking at him with a smile on his face. Suddenly, he felt a little bit of evil interest and asked, "Palace Jade Liquor?"

Naturally, these words were very puzzling to others, and no one understood why he suddenly brought up the topic of wine in this situation.

But everyone saw that Ling Xiaotian's expression, which was originally quite calm, suddenly changed after hearing these words. He widened his eyes and said, "You...you! Could it be that you also..."

Having said this, he managed to hold back his words with great difficulty, but he could not hide the shock on his face no matter what he did.

"It seems that I was right. We are very likely from the same place... Of course, it is more likely that we are from a similar place."

Chai Xin's understanding of time and space is naturally far superior to Ling Xiaotian in front of him.

Both of them may be from Earth, but they may not really be from the same time and space or world.

It was just like the world of Zhutian where he first arrived. Although there was also Earth and they were similar in many aspects, there were also many differences.

Moreover, even on Earth in the world of Shrouding the Sky, there is actually a joke about "Palace Jade Liquor, one hundred and eighty yuan per cup".

"In that case, I think we can become friends and plan great things together."

Ling Xiaotian took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down a little, with a sincere look on his face.

The people around became even more confused. They didn't understand why the situation turned out like this after a few strange conversations between the two sides.

"friend?"

Chai Xin smiled and looked at the other person calmly. "I have read your original novel and know your character, so... don't waste your time on meaningless conspiracies."

As soon as these words came out, Ling Xiaotian felt as if his brain short-circuited for a moment.

"So, to him, my time traveling across time is just a novel or a film or TV show that he has read... Then doesn't he know everything about me?"

He chewed over Chai Xin's words before he truly understood their meaning. Suddenly, a chill rose from the soles of his feet and rushed straight to the top of his head.

"No, we can't leave such a person in this world! This martial arts world only needs me, a time traveler, to rule it, and that's enough!"

In an instant, the strong murderous intent in his heart surged like a tide, and the look he gave Chai Xin was as cold as a knife.

"Want to kill me? Then come and try."

Chai Xin put his hands behind his back, not at all moved by the murderous intent revealed by the other party.

The original purpose of Ling Xiaotian's trip was actually to capture Chai Xin.

In fact, he is quite confident in his current strength, at the level of half-step grandmaster. Looking at the entire martial arts world, there are probably few people who can compete with him.

It was not until Chai Xin said the words "Palace Jade Liquor" that he felt a little shaken.

If Chai Xin is also a time traveler, he must be familiar with the plot, and he is a member of the Xiaoyao Sect... I think he must have learned the Beiming Divine Art.

If not, how could he have the ability to easily defeat Ding Chunqiu at such a young age?

Considering that just Wuyazi has seventy years of skills...

Ling Xiaotian's originally confident mentality had undergone a subtle change at this time.

Chai Xin saw through his thoughts and shook his head, saying, "It seems you don't have the courage. In that case, let me try to see if I can kill you."

Before he finished speaking, his figure flashed. No one could see his movements clearly. It only seemed that in an instant, he arrived in front of Ling Xiaotian.

Ling Xiaotian suddenly felt a strong wind blowing on his face, and his heart went cold. He instinctively wanted to retreat, but it was too late.

"Too slow."

Chai Xin uttered two words lightly, and at the same time slapped out with his palm, landing on Ling Xiaotian's shoulder.

"Crack!"

There was a crisp sound, apparently the shoulder blade was broken.

"what!"

Ling Xiaotian couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and quickly raised his other hand, using the Dragon Claw Hand to grab Chai Xin's neck.

“Still slow.”

Almost in an instant, Chai Xin's body shape had changed. Before Ling Xiaotian's palm wind could hit him, he had already appeared on the other side of his body and slapped him again.

"Crack!"

With an almost identical crisp sound, Ling Xiaotian's shoulder blade on the other side was also broken!

As a result, Ling Xiaotian's arms were crippled in just one encounter, and his strength was reduced by at least half.

"How can it be?!"

This time, Ling Xiaotian no longer cared about the pain. His eyes were full of disbelief. At the same time, he kicked the ground with his legs and tried to escape for his life.

"What are you still standing there for? Are you all made of wood?"

He roared hysterically and gave orders to his men.

"Yes!"

Those who came with him were naturally skilled fighters carefully trained by the Huolong Villa. If they were placed in the martial arts world, they would at least be first-rate figures.

The incident happened suddenly and these followers had no time to react. When they heard their leader's scolding, they immediately came to their senses and tried to stop Chai Xin.

They are all death warriors trained since childhood. They only know to follow orders. Even if they know they can't win, they will still step forward to resist resolutely.

"You shouldn't be here. I almost forgot about you."

Chai Xin, however, walked as if he was strolling in the garden. With light steps, he avoided all the people who rushed towards him, and followed closely behind the fleeing Ling Xiaotian, his face as calm as ever.

"But since you are here, then stay. I feel that you may have something I can use."

The moment he slapped the opponent with his palm, the small fortune seal in Chai Xin's body obviously had some unusual fluctuations, which really aroused his interest.

Obviously, the thing that caused the Small Fortune Seal to sense the treasure should be the treasure that helped Ling Xiaotian travel through time.

Chai Xin had a hunch that after obtaining the treasure, his goal of coming to the world of heroes might be achieved ahead of schedule.

"Why do you have to do this? Since we come from the same place, we should support each other and should not become enemies no matter what... If I die, you will be alone in this world, won't you feel lonely?"

While running away, Ling Xiaotian changed his tone to a sincere one and played the emotional card.

However, this little trick was so childish that it could not cause any ripples in Chai Xin's emotions at all.

"First of all, we are obviously not from the same place. Secondly, you were forced to come here, and I came here on my own initiative. How can we compare? If you really have a good character, maybe I can keep you and even help you... It's a pity that you have murderous intentions towards me."

As soon as Chai Xin finished speaking, he raised his right palm again and slapped Ling Xiaotian on the back.

Ling Xiaotian felt the strong wind coming again, and he was immediately frightened. He immediately shouted heartbreakingly: "Foster father, save me!"

But as he opened his mouth, a middle-aged figure wearing a golden python robe and a purple gold crown on his head flew out from behind a nearby tree like a ghost.

Judging from the speed, he was slightly faster than Chai Xin. He actually started later but arrived first, and kicked Chai Xin's palm with a flying kick.

"Finally you've shown up."

Chai Xin smiled coldly, having expected this.

In fact, he was fully capable of killing Ling Xiaotian with one palm, but he didn't do so because he realized that there was an expert lurking in the dark.

If he had really used all his strength just now, he might have revealed a flaw, allowing the person in the dark to take advantage of him.

"Xiaotian is handling the case under the order of the imperial court. Even if you don't cooperate, you shouldn't attack him. For this reason alone, I will not tolerate you!"
