Chapter 25: Mountain Shaker
Chapter 25: Mountain Shaker
Before the sky turned dark, Yang Yi rushed to the Mission Hall and reported his situation to a disciple on duty.
He tried looking for Xu Menghua several times before this. After going back and forth in the Mission Hall, he became familiar with this disciple on duty.
"That can be arranged, Junior Brother Yang, I understand what you mean. About the reward..." The disciple on duty was taking notes.
This mission was not difficult. To put it bluntly, it was only a mission to recover a lost item.
The herbal field and the broken cliff inside sect grounds was a location with a low danger level.
Although the devil lord was suppressed at the bottom of the broken cliff, that was a long time ago. That area had long been opened to disciples. As long as it was not too close to the Devil Imprisoning Cave, it was fine.
"Let's set the reward at 200 contribution points. Please help me out, Senior Brother. That jade token is very important to me."
200 contribution points was a huge sum of money. Even the task of escorting goods would not pay this much.
Yang Yi handed over his pass along with several pieces of silver hidden under it.
The disciple on duty received it. He understood and his expression grew enthusiastic.
"Don't worry, Junior Brother Yang. If this mission is published, there will definitely be many seniors who will be willing to help. Even I would like to skip work to find it." These words were not entirely flattery.
Among the outer disciples, there were quite a few who were living on a tight budget. This mission would undoubtedly be a popular one.
"I'll leave it in your hands, Senior Brother." Yang Yi bowed and left.
As usual, he went to the Spiritual Spring Mountain to cultivate for a while. Then, he bought some demonic beast meat and went back.
Now that the Crimson Afterglow Technique had broken through, it was time to focus on the Mountain-hugging Fist.
He imagined that the Qixia Sect might descend into chaos if the leakage of Devil Qi could not be contained. If that happened, he might consider leaving the sect.
The journey back to the Yang family in Baisha City was a long one. It would be very difficult to arrive safely if he was weak.
Currently, cultivating a martial technique to the accomplished stage was the fastest way to improve his strength.
He returned to the wooden hut.
Yang Yi opened his martial arts panel.
Host: Yang Yi
Realm: Bone Refining (23/800)
Spirit accumulation points: 500
Learned martial arts: Crimson Afterglow Technique, Mountain-hugging Fist

He opened his martial arts panel.
Martial Arts: Mountain-hugging Fist (learned)
Realm: Intermediate (83/300)
Characteristics: Competitive
Quality: Body Tempering martial art
Feedback: [Your Mountain-hugging Fist has improved after a day of painstaking cultivation. Experience +1.] (Two hours required for the next feedback.)
Yang Yi could now collect 300 spirit accumulation points a day, which gave him an upper limit of requesting 30 feedback reports per day.
"Feedback, 30 times!"
He went straight to the point.
[Your Mountain-hugging Fist gobbled up a bag of heavenly demon ox jerky. Its strength increased greatly. Power +3. ]
[Your Mountain-hugging Fist secretly attended lessons in the Diligent Mountain Court. It learned an ultimate killer move, Mountain Shaker!]
[Your Mountain-hugging Fist is tired. Aside from cultivating, it picked up the hobby of fishing. It gained nothing today.]
[Your Mountain-hugging Fist was injured during a sparring session. Fortunately, a kind senior sister helped it bandage its wounds. Experience -2.]
[Your Mountain-hugging Fist's thoughts were all over the place. Its training efficiency was greatly reduced. When it went up the mountain to relax, it discovered a group of black-clothed men and horses hunting a giant turtle demon beast.]
...
A row of feedback reports flashed past Yang Yi's eyes.
This was the first time he had requested this many feedback reports in one go, and it was a little dazzling.
After carefully checking the records, he was overjoyed. Out of the five special events, there was only one experience deduction. This was already considered a small proportion.
The one that caught his attention the most was the second report.
It learned an ultimate move by secretly learning from the Diligent Mountain Court!
"This fellow is usually competitive and always stirring up trouble. I didn't expect its comprehension abilities to be this wonderful." Yang Yi was a little jealous, but at the same time, he felt gratified.
He felt that it should be considered a complete martial art or at least a strengthened one.
"Mountain Shaker... It's an ultimate move used to kill one's enemies. It sounds powerful."
Yang Yi could not sit still anymore. He immediately went to the courtyard to execute the fist technique.
The wooden figure in the courtyard had long been replaced with a green rock.
The surface of the green rock was rough, and it was extremely hard.
Only Yang Yi, who had broken through to the Bone Refining stage, dared to use this to practice his punches.
"Ha!" Yang Yi threw a straight punch.
He unleashed 70 to 80 percent of his Bone Refining stage's power in that punch.
However, he merely left a small white mark on the green rock.
His punches became faster and faster. Each punch was like a falling mountain rock that increased with intensity as it rolled forth.
The white mark on the green rock became more and more obvious. Ash was starting to form on its surface.
"Ha!"
Yang Yi was not satisfied yet.
He spread his feet and brought his arms slightly together before himself.
After accumulating his strength, his two fists thrust out like ox horns.
Thunk!
His fists gave muffled thumps.
The green rock that was as tall as a person gave a slight shake, but that was all.
Yang Yi focused his gaze.
The shadows of his fists changed.
Following the memories from the previous feedback reports, he made a hammer with his hands and smashed down fiercely! It was Mountain Shaker!
Thwack!
On the surface of the green rock, a crack the shape of a wash basin appeared.
Tiny pieces of gravel rolled down.
This move was indeed powerful!
Yang Yi was panting. He felt extremely excited with these results.
"With such lethality, I might even be able to break through the defenses of a Spiral Force cultivator. If I combine it with the fire attribute of the Crimson Afterglow Technique, I might be able to unleash a more powerful strike."
Although Yang Yi had never really witnessed the defensive force of a Spiral Force martial artist, he had a hunch about it when he reached his current realm. However, he would only know the truth after an actual combat against a Spiral Force cultivator.
He wiped his sweat.
When he walked to the side to rest, he noticed that there were many abrasions on his arm. There was also a bruise that hurt when he pressed it.
There was nothing he could do. He had just broken through to the Bone Refining stage not long ago. Using such a powerful killer move has placed a great burden on his body.
Fortunately, his Qi and blood were very solid. This minor injury would not hurt his foundation at all. He merely needed one day to recover, at most.
However, he still applied some ointment on it, just to be safe.
He worked through the night in excitement.
The next day, Yang Yi was still in high spirits.
First, he went to the herbal field to buy a cloud marten and sent it to the Harmony Court.
After that, he went to look for Xu Menghua.
Today, Xu Menghwa was there, but he seemed to be in a hurry, as if he was going to leave again.
Yang Yi directly told him the news of his breakthrough.
"Oh? If I remember correctly, you haven't been in the outer sect for long, right?"
Xu Menghua was in a hurry at first, but when he heard the news, he immediately became interested.
"I've barely been promoted to the outer sect for two months," Yang Yi answered truthfully.
"Two months to break through to the Bone Refining stage. That's a good speed."
Xu Menghua stepped forward and felt Yang Yi's arm.
After confirming that the situation was true, the way he looked at Yang Yi became even gentler. No matter where one was, talented people were always treated differently.
"Aside from the pills provided by senior sister Chenglu from the Harmony Court, it's also thanks to your guidance that I was fortunate enough to achieve this breakthrough, Manager Xu."
These were modest words. He pointed out the two key points for his breakthrough.
One of them was also a flattering compliment directed at Xu Menghua which was inserted seamlessly.
When he came to Xu Menghua with the teaching token, he would also occasionally ask about the Crimson Afterglow Technique apart from receiving guidance for the Mountain-hugging Fist.
This was something that Yang Yi had planned long ago. He planned to talk more about it after the breakthrough.
"Your achievements today are all thanks to your own hard work. I didn't do much."
Xu Menghua waved his hand, but the smile on his face told Yang Yi that his words had their intended effects.
"I have some urgent matters to attend to now. Come visit me when I get back."
He walked to the front of the courtyard, paused, and said with his hands behind his back, "When you come over in the future, there's no need to bring any more teaching tokens."
