December arrived in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Gao Yan was reading a Japanese book in class as usual.

Suddenly, the Red Emperor's voice came through the Bluetooth earpiece: "Boss, Kondo Hikoma and the other two have made a move!"

"Okay, I understand!"

Taking advantage of the teacher's inattention, Gao Yan slipped out of the classroom.

They found a secluded spot and used the Anywhere Door to travel to Fujian Province.

Then he activated his Insight Eye and locked onto Kondo Hikoma and the other two.

At this moment, the three of them were traveling in a car to the outskirts of the city, and none of them had their cell phones with them.

Gao Yan calmly followed.

And they always maintained a distance of several kilometers.

The three drove out of the city and then parked the car on the side of the road.

We climbed a mountain several hundred meters high by following a small path.

A figure flashed by.

A middle-aged man appeared on the mountaintop.

Upon seeing this person, Kondo Hikoma and the other two immediately knelt down and bowed respectfully.

Gao Yan could tell from his keen observation that the middle-aged man was disguised.

The Eye of Insight can only see people, not hear sounds.

Therefore, during this period, Gao Yan intensively studied lip reading and Japanese.

Therefore, under the protection of the Insightful Eye, the conversation between the middle-aged man and Kondo Hikoma was deciphered.

Simply put

The middle-aged man questioned Kondo Hikoma and his two companions about why they had failed to complete their mission.

Kondo Hikoma and the other two begged for mercy in fear and said that Kogen was hostile to the Japanese and was unwilling to sell them the medicinal wine.

The middle-aged man was very dissatisfied with Kondo Hikoma and the other two's excuses.

With a wave of his hand, three streams of black energy entered their bodies. Immediately afterwards, Kondo Hikoma and the other two screamed and rolled on the ground in pain, even losing control of their bladder and bowels.

What's going on?

Upon seeing the three black energy energies, Gao Yan's expression hardened. He was certain that the middle-aged man was not a Gang Jin martial artist, and the energy energies he emitted were not Gang Jin either!

"Could it be internal energy?"

Gao Yan thought of a possibility: he had obtained an ancient martial arts cultivation technique from Sun Tong, the leader of the Blood God Cult.

To cultivate, one must either consume human blood or obtain spirit stones.

What is cultivated through ancient martial arts techniques is internal energy.

However, Sun Tong used this internal energy to forge his body, so in the end, he was still following the path of body cultivation.

They simply regarded the ancient martial arts techniques as an auxiliary method.

After all, without the corresponding ancient martial arts techniques, having a lot of internal energy or true energy is of no use.

However, the method by which this middle-aged man is punishing Kondo Hikoma and the other two is clearly an ancient martial arts technique.

For a moment, Gao Yan couldn't help but wonder if the Shinto Association was an organization composed of a group of ancient martial arts practitioners.

Thinking about this...

He flashed and headed straight for the mountain peak.

Two minutes later.

The middle-aged man then unleashed three more bursts of internal energy, causing Kondo Hikoma and the other two to stop screaming and kneel on the ground in fear to express their gratitude.

At this moment.

A figure flashed and appeared on the mountaintop.

The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. With a wave of his hand, he conjured a black palm print, which shot straight toward Gao Yan.

"puff!"

Gao Yan raised his hand and stabbed, shattering the black palm print.

However, his body moved at the same speed as the middle-aged man, and he struck him in the chest with a palm.

The moment he struck his opponent, he clearly felt a thin layer of energy on the opponent's chest, but this energy layer only slightly blocked his power before shattering.

With a "bang," the middle-aged man was sent flying several meters, but while in mid-air, he twisted his body and flew down the mountain on the other side like a gliding bird, completely unaffected by gravity.

"Interesting, this must be a lightness skill from ancient martial arts!"

Gao Yan narrowed his eyes. Neither Dan Jin martial artists nor Gang Jin martial artists can fly. The ability to leap across rooftops and walk on walls relies entirely on their launch power and explosive force.

It is a completely different concept from light-footed kung fu.

After casually knocking out Hiko Makoto and the other two, Gao Yan chased after the middle-aged man.

The opponent's strength was clearly comparable to that of a Transformation Realm expert, but with the aid of lightness skill, his speed was comparable to that of a Core Formation Realm expert!

pity.

Gao Yan's technique is not Dan Jin, but Gang Jin.

Therefore, he easily caught up with his opponent and then used his skills to break his opponent's limbs.

They were worried that the other person had hidden poison in their teeth.

I even checked it out.

But there was nothing there.

Who are you?

The middle-aged man stared at Gao Yan with resentment and asked.

Gao Yan was too lazy to waste words with the other party and directly used his top-level hypnosis skills to obtain information.

Soon, Gao Yan obtained the information he wanted from the other party.

After losing his usefulness, Gao Yan killed the other party and threw the body into the Mustard Seed Space.

He then returned to the mountaintop.

First, they woke up Kondo Hikoma and the other two, and then used hypnosis to alter their memories.

They were ordered to come here, but they did not see the middle-aged man.

After waiting for an hour.

They had no choice but to return to the city.

After doing all this, Gao Yan returned to Lingxi Garden through the Anywhere Door.

The middle-aged man's name was Watanabe Yutaro, one of the top leaders of the Shinto Association's peripheral organizations, mainly in charge of the peripheral members in Daxia.

The cultivation technique he practiced was called the "Black Dragon Scripture".

In addition to the Qi cultivation method, this "Black Dragon Scripture" also includes a palm technique, a lightness skill, and a method specifically designed to torture people.

However, the Black Dragon Scripture cannot be cultivated normally; it requires the use of a special elixir called the Black Dragon Pill.
