Kill Me More Times, I’ll Become Invincible

Chapter 5:

Qiao Canxue reached out her hand towards Qiao Mu, but quickly pulled it back as if getting an electric shock, showing a hint of fear on her fair face.

"So hard… What did you make me touch?"

"My arm."

Qiao Canxue stayed silent for a while, then reached out her hand again to explore and evaluate, but this time she was no longer calm.

"In just over a month, you became this strong?"

They had only known each other for a little over a month.

After they first met, they quickly reached an agreement:

Qiao Canxue taught Qiao Mu the ancestral martial arts of the Qiao Family from Heyang City, called "Long Life Fist," and in return, Qiao Mu would seek revenge on Qiao Canxue’s behalf.

So, Qiao Mu officially began practicing the "Long Life Fist" training manual, which took a little over a month.

Blind girl Qiao Canxue couldn’t see his age and body changes, but she could hear some slight differences in his voice. So, she only realized now that Qiao Mu’s entire body has grown bigger.

"Incredible," Qiao Canxue also exclaimed.

"Training one’s strength is a gradual process, there are no shortcuts, but you…"

"Don’t be shocked, let’s move on to the next step quickly and teach me the martial arts." Qiao Mu urged.

Qiao Canxue was taken aback, "Don’t rush…Let me recall the rhymes for the strength training first."

"Although my family’s ‘Long Life Fist Sutra’ was taken away, I still remember the content until the strength training part."

Qiao Mu had no choice but to wait silently on the sidelines.

Although Qiao Canxue told him not to be impatient, he was indeed a little anxious.

Qiao Mu has the extraordinary ability to live forever, which is like having the power of immortality.

By sacrificing their lifespan and rapidly aging their own body, they exchange it for a rapid increase in strength.

Just like his battle with Butcher Zheng, it didn’t last more than an hour, but dying repeatedly during that time was equivalent to five years of hard training.

However, there is also a cost.

The peak period of physical fitness in a person’s body is generally between the ages of eighteen and thirty.

Even the mighty martial artists of this world, with a single palm, can shatter mountains and split rocks, but in their later years, their vitality will decline.

Qiao Mu cannot die, but he can still grow old.

If it weren’t for the Long Life Fist, even if Qiao Mu repeatedly risked his life, his power would grow to the point where a single punch could shatter a mountain. However, in his later years, his vitality would eventually wither and his strength would decline.

Birth, aging, sickness, and death are the laws of all things, and even the strongest martial artist is no exception.

What’s even more heartbreaking is… Qiao Mu has eternal life.

This means that unless he exhausts all his lives, life is eternal, and he will endure an endless period of old age and weakness.

So in Qiao Mu’s eyes…

Long Life Fist is the missing piece of his puzzle!

Long Life Fist！

This is a superior martial arts that has produced many masters who lived past 100 years old. Its biggest feature is the ability to prolong life and stay youthful!

Qiao Mu wants to become stronger, but he also doesn’t want to grow old and weak because of sacrificing his life. Is this kind of thought wrong?

It is because of this that he stands here.

Qiao Mu must learn the complete "Long Life Fist" before he becomes old and weak, and master it to the highest level, achieving the state of being forever young and vigorous.

By then, with the ability of immortality and the state of being forever young and energetic, Qiao Mu can freely enjoy life and even die without any worries, right?

Qiao Mu had already made up his mind.

If anyone angers him, he will quietly choose a dark and windy night, and hang himself in front of the enemy’s door.

Then the next day, he will pretend to be his older brother and report the enemy to the authorities.

……….

The two of them walked out of the noodle shop, turning left and right, and entered a small alley from the main street, going deeper and deeper.

As they walked deeper, the alley became narrower, darker, and more cramped. The walls on both sides were peeling, and moss grew in the darkness.

In the air, a disgustingly strange smell gradually spread, a mix of feces, urine and sweaty sourness, this caused Qiao Mu to unconsciously hold his breath and quicken his pace.

"Why did you choose to live in such a poor place in the first place?" Qiao Mu asked, holding his nose.

"My identity must remain hidden. Naturally, I had to find a vacant house in the outer city. It’s better to have a place to live than to starve like the famine victims," Qiao Canxue replied.

In Yan City, there was a famine one month ago.

This area outside the city is almost completely empty, and even four or five out of ten houses are vacant, so there are many unused houses left.

As long as Qiao Mu is willing, he can sleep in one house today and switch to another house tomorrow. It can be said that at a young age, he achieved the freedom of owning properties.

After entering the wooden house deep in the alley, Qiao Canxue began reciting the mantras of the techniques she remembered:

"…..Using what is visible to aid what is invisible, one thing becomes real, but many become illusory…. Alright, I have already told you the mantra for the strength training chapter."

"Once you generate a sense of qi and cultivate internal strength, you can be considered truly advanced in martial arts."

Qiao Mu remained quiet, simply sitting on the side, silently meditating and adjusting his breathing. After a while, he gently shook his head.

"I still sense no qi."

This reaction actually made Qiao Canxue laugh:

"Everyone says not to aim too high. If you want to develop internal strength, you should practice strength training until the end of the training phase. Although you have been practicing well, you have only been practicing for a little over a month."

"Butcher Zheng, who is suspected to be a member of the ‘Wuji Association,’ has been secretly practicing martial arts for many years. Although he hasn’t developed internal strength, his arms also possess the strength of several hundred kilograms."

"Once you reach the end of the strength training phase in the future, your arms will have the strength of five hundred kilograms. You will be able to defeat Butcher Zheng–"

"No need to wait for later, I have already finished," Qiao Mu interjected.

"This time, I killed Butcher Zheng and found a secret letter on him. He should be a member of the ‘Wuji Association’ that you mentioned."

Qiao Mu briefly told the story of killing Butcher Zheng and emphasized the two letters found on Butcher Zheng, especially the encrypted one.

Qiao Canxue was initially skeptical, but her expression changed immediately when she heard Qiao Mu mention the encrypted letter shaped like a tadpole.

"A tadpole-shaped encryption? You actually found something like this. It seems you have indeed killed the member of ‘Wuji Association.’"

Qiao Canxue searched through her belongings and pulled out a small notebook filled with densely written small characters.

"Tadpole code is a secret language used for communication in the ‘Wuji Association.’ It is very difficult to master… This is how the code is deciphered. Take a look and read it to me."

"You actually understand it?" Qiao Mu was slightly surprised.

Qiao Canxue remained calm and didn’t offer any explanation, so he didn’t ask further.

After all, the Qiao Family in Heyang City used to be a prominent clan. Being the last descendant of the Qiao family, Qiao Canxue naturally hadn’t been idle during the past six months.

Qiao Mu held the tadpole coded letter and the hand-copied book, quickly compared them, and his expression immediately changed.

"It seems like this letter is saying… Great Yan Emperor will be leaving the capital soon, and the Wuji Association is preparing to gather its members to assassinate the Great Yan Emperor?"

Qiao Mu’s heart was suddenly filled with shock and waves.

An assassin who would assassinate the emperor!

Whether the assassination succeeded or failed, this assassin had almost no chance of surviving!

It would be great if he could do such a dangerous thing!

After all.

If one were to die as an assassin, perhaps their name could be recorded in history books, the Death Assessment would surely be very high!
