Chapter Five Calamities

Calming his internal energy, Su Yang then placed his palm on the skin of the armored rhinoceros and directly converted the giant in front of him into martial arts points.

His ability only works if the target is a living being; the creature must be killed before it can be activated.

Before long, the armored rhinoceros disappeared, leaving only a pile of dust, which was then blown away by the wind.

The monsters are treasures from head to toe, and even have valuable demon cores, but for Su Yang, it's troublesome to carry them. It's more appropriate to exchange them for martial arts points to improve his cultivation.

I excitedly opened the panel.

This time it's different from before; this is a genuine mid-level second-tier demonic beast.

The martial arts points that can be provided to him are definitely not few!

Name: Su Yang

Age: Sixteen

Cultivation level: Qi Gathering Realm Level 2 (+)

Exercise Method: *Xianyang Gong*

Martial arts: "Three-Layered Strength" and "Tongbei Fist"

Martial arts points: 58.2

Resurrection After Death: The Final Battle

Upon seeing the extra 52 martial arts points, Su Yang immediately punched his palm.

I sighed inwardly, realizing that choosing to enter the Ten Thousand Mountains was definitely the right decision!

Fortune favors the bold. If he had chosen to stay with the Su family and live off their meager welfare resources, he would have been dragged down to his death!

Although as the leading figure of the younger generation in the Su family, he receives some preferential treatment in terms of resources, it is truly limited.

After all, the Su family couldn't possibly say anything like giving him all the family's resources.

Su Yang didn't see anything wrong with this.

Everyone has selfish desires, and even within the same family, there are still people who are close to each other.

He eats a lot, which means others eat less.

What good does it do to fatten up others while starving your own son?

As for an orphan like him who lost both parents, apart from having the surname Su, his relationship with the Su family's leaders was not particularly close.

Su Yaohe and the clan elders did not ostracize him; they simply acted according to the rules, which was already more than enough.

I chose to add points.

Unlike the Qi Gathering Level 1 to 2, which only requires 10 Martial Arts Points.

Upgrading to level three directly consumed 20.

The same feeling as always.

The improvement in his cultivation brought him a pleasant sensation that almost made Su Yang cry out. He had to clench his teeth to suppress the feeling of pleasure!

But that feeling of pleasure comes quickly and goes quickly.

After he adapted to his stronger body, he felt a sense of emptiness, which made Su Yang feel somewhat uneasy.

His gaze fell on the remaining thirty-odd points, and then he clicked the little plus sign!

He wants more!

Each upgrade increases the cost by ten points.

The martial arts points gained from killing the armored rhinoceros were completely depleted, but in return, Su Yang directly increased his cultivation level by two levels!

Name: Su Yang

Age: Sixteen

Cultivation level: Fourth level of Qi Gathering Realm

Exercise Method: *Xianyang Gong*

Martial arts: "Three-Layered Strength" and "Tongbei Fist"

Martial arts points: 8.2

Resurrection After Death: The Final Battle

In just a few hours, he had become much stronger than when he first entered the Ten Thousand Mountains.

I closed the panel.

Su Yang took one last look at the large hole in the tree trunk before choosing to leave.

If he achieves success one day, he will choose to come back and visit this giant tree.

......

The Su family.

A separate courtyard.

Although he had been a good-for-nothing for several years, Su Chen still had his own small courtyard because of Su Yao.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he circulated the "Xianyang Gong" (First Yang Skill). As a second-level skill that every member of the Su family had a copy of, the true energy cultivated by the "Xianyang Gong" was of average power, but it was gentle.

A faint warmth emanated from his body, as comfortable as sunlight shining on him, but Su Chen's brows were furrowed at this moment.

It wasn't that he felt unwell, but just like before, the energy he had cultivated had vanished again.

Open your eyes and exit the cultivation state.

Calm the body's energy.

Su Chen's eyes were filled with pain.

"Why is it always like this! God, are you just going to make things difficult for me?"

He pounded his fists on the bed, venting his resentment.

Three years, a full three years, and his cultivation level didn't improve an inch!

It was all because the energy he cultivated could not be stored and all of it mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

No matter how hard he tried to find the cause, he couldn't find anything.

Thinking of the day Xu Wan came to the Su family to break off the engagement, Su Chen clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh!

"Am I, Su Chen, destined to be such a useless person for the rest of my life?"

An uncontrollable despair welled up inside me.

Are you troubled?

I even started having auditory hallucinations.

Seeing that its host, whom it had inhabited for over ten years, seemed not to have heard what it said, a faint light shone again from Su Chen's chest.

Are you troubled?

This time, Su Chen heard the voice that suddenly appeared in his mind.

I rolled out of bed, and my mind was shaken!

"Who? Who's speaking?"

I am right here in your heart.

The image still appeared directly in his mind, and Su Chen's eyes widened as if they were copper bells.

Trembling, he looked down at his chest and, sure enough, saw a faint shimmering light through his clothes.

He unconsciously swallowed.

Su Chen asked tremblingly, "Are you my talisman?"

Su Chen knew perfectly well what was on his chest.

It was something left behind by his father, whom he had never met, and he had always carried it with him as a talisman.

But the voice that appeared in his mind hesitated, because it was not a talisman.

I am not a talisman, I am a weapon.
