Chapter 115 Blood Exchange Method (Please subscribe, collect, and recommend)

Dongchengsi Yamen, backyard.

Su Mu was practicing sword skills under the moonlight.

His movements were very slow, and each move was full of heavy charm. Every time he chopped with the sword, it seemed as if he was going to split a huge rock in front of him.

Swish!
There was a flash of knife light, and the rockery in the yard was split into two with a snap, and the rubble was scattered all over the ground.

“The martial arts of the Genshan lineage are powerful and powerful. They lack in technique but are heavy. They can make up for the shortcomings of the Kanshui artistic conception and the Xunfeng artistic conception.”

Su Mu put away the Qiu Shui Knife with satisfaction, picked up the towel on the stone table to wipe the sweat off his hands, and then sat down in front of the stone table.

With a thought, he called up the system panel.

[Name: Su Mu]

[Identity: Ghostwriter/Taiping Division White-clothed/Dongcheng Division Sima (Seventh Rank)]

[Points: 180 points]

[Realm: The Ultimate Body Tempering Realm]

[Magic Power: Immortal Golden Body]

[Kung Fu: Iron Bull Bone Tempering Method (Perfect), Civet Cat Bone Tempering Method (Perfect)…]

[Martial Arts: Kaishan Sword Technique (Perfect), Kanshui Artistic Conception (Minor Success), Xunfeng Artistic Conception (Minor Success), Archery (Beginner/+)]

Many days have passed since the last caravan robbery was uncovered.

When he brought the bodies of forty bandits back to Dongcheng District that day, it caused a great sensation.

Since that day, all forces in Dongcheng District have become unusually honest.

And Shen Yizhi was even more grateful to Su Mu, and from then on he worked for Su Mu wholeheartedly.

In such a peaceful atmosphere, Su Mu had nothing to do every day except practicing martial arts.

He has already practiced the body-tempering method to its limit, and now all he can practice are martial arts.

Thus, it was natural for him to practice the Mountain-Splitting Blade Technique to perfection.

He practiced swordplay diligently enough, and as a result, the points required to improve his mountain-splitting sword skills were reduced a lot, which was a pleasant surprise.

“Although I have mastered the Kaishan Knife Style, if I want to comprehend the Genshan artistic conception, I may need to master two or even three more styles of the Genshan style.”

Looking at the contents on the system panel, Su Mu’s face showed a thoughtful look.

“Even with the help of the system panel, this is not an easy task.”

Su Mu had a feeling that the martial arts of the Genshan lineage were somewhat in conflict with the Kanshui and Xunfeng artistic conceptions he had mastered, and that his practice would be ineffective.

He had the Xunfeng artistic conception map in his hand before, so after practicing two or three Xunfeng martial arts, he comprehended the Xunfeng artistic conception.

The martial arts of the Kanshui lineage were the first ones he practiced. At that time, he was like a blank slate, and there was no possibility of any conflict of artistic conception.

Now that he has mastered the Kan water artistic conception and the Xun wind artistic conception, the bad thing is that it will be extremely difficult for him to comprehend the Gen mountain artistic conception.

This is also one of the reasons why those powerful warriors can rarely master multiple artistic conceptions.

It is difficult to comprehend the artistic conception, and some artistic conceptions are essentially conflicting. If you can comprehend the artistic conception of Kan water, it is almost impossible to comprehend the artistic conception of Li fire.

Although the conflict between the Gen Mountain artistic conception and the Kan Water artistic conception and the Xun Wind artistic conception is not that great, it is extremely difficult to have both heaviness and lightness.

Su Mu felt that if he wanted to comprehend the artistic conception of Genshan, it would be possible only if he mastered four or even five kinds of power of Genshan.

In this case, even if he used all his points to practice martial arts, it would still take at least half a year to accomplish it.

“Mastering the third state of mind actually has a very limited impact on my strength. It is far less effective than cultivating one state of mind to perfection. However, to achieve perfection in a state of mind, 10,000 points are required.”

Su Mu thought to himself, “At my current rate of earning points, it will take about two months…”

Not using points for two months would mean that his strength would stagnate.

Su Mu, who was used to improving his strength, found it difficult to accept the result of no improvement in two months.

But it would be a waste to use the points to practice the Genshan martial arts.

“It would be great if we could find a way to exchange blood.”

Su Mu sighed and said to himself.

These days he has been trying to find a way to get a blood transfusion.

The body tempering method can be bought on the market as long as you have silver, but the blood exchange method is no longer something that can be bought with silver.

Any method of blood transfusion could become the heritage of a family and would never be easily spread outside.

Su Mu searched all the pawnshops in the inner and outer cities, but no matter how high the price he offered, he could not buy a blood exchange method.

For Su Mu, there is another way to get a blood transfusion.

That is the Taiping Division.

Of course he also went to the Taiping Division. His irresponsible superior Lin Qihuan seemed to have forgotten him. He went to the Taiping Division so many times but never saw him once.

Su Mu himself had inquired about it, and found out that if he wanted to exchange the blood exchange method in the Taiping Division, he could only rely on the merit of killing demons.

Su Mu did have some achievements, which were obtained when he cracked down on the Wusheng Sect and handed over the demons imprisoned by the Wusheng Sect to the Taiping Division.

It was Luo An Ning who took care of him that time and gave him all the credit.

But even so, Su Mu’s merit points are still not enough to exchange for a blood exchange method.

According to the Taiping Division’s servants, if Bai Yi from the Taiping Division wants to exchange for a blood exchange technique, he needs the merits of three first-level demons.

The demon from the Wusheng Sect counts as one, and the half-demons he killed from the Wusheng Sect who were infected by the demon’s blood only count as half.

He still needs to kill another half-level first-level demon.

According to the classification of demons by the Great Xuan Dynasty, the strength of a first-level demon is roughly equivalent to that of a blood exchange realm.

Let Bai Yi from Taipingsi kill the first-level demon equivalent to the blood exchange realm. Su Mu just wants to say, well done!

With Su Mu’s current strength, he has a chance of winning against a weaker first-level demon.

However, there are not so many weaker first-level monsters waiting for him to kill. Who can guarantee that all the monsters he encounters are first-level monsters?
If you go out of the city to hunt monsters, it depends on luck as to what kind of monster you encounter. If you are unlucky, you may encounter a second-level monster.

The Taiping Division does often have some tasks, and those tasks will mark the possible strength of the monsters.

Su Mu has also been observing for many days, but has not yet found a suitable task for him.

There is no clue at the Taiping Division, and I don’t know where that good girl Luo An Ning has gone. I haven’t seen her for a long time, and I miss her a lot.

Su Mu looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, his mind racing, “The He family should also have a blood transfusion method. How about thinking of a way to get the He family’s blood transfusion method?” Su Mu couldn’t help shaking his head, not knowing why this idea came up.

It’s fine if it’s just a small fight, but if you want to get the He family’s blood exchange method, it’s only possible if the He family is destroyed. If you want to destroy the He family, the blood exchange realm masters of the He family are not just for show.

His current indestructible golden body is still unable to withstand the attacks of several blood exchange realm masters.

We can only wait for Luo An Ning to come back, or for the Taiping Division to have a suitable task, which shouldn’t take too long.

Several days passed in a flash. While Su Mu continued to search for a blood exchange method, he began to practice the second sword technique of the Genshan lineage, the Mountain-Splitting Sword Technique.

Just when the Mountain-Splitting Sword Technique was being perfected, Dong Cheng Si suddenly received an order from the inner city.

“Wen Xiang Cult?”

Su Mu looked at the document in his hand, a pensive look on his face.

He was not unfamiliar with the name Wenxiang Sect. When he first came to Dongcheng District, he investigated the two major forces in Dongcheng District. The Ronghua Society was composed of wealthy businessmen, and the other force was the Qingcha Sect, which was mainly composed of the working people at the bottom of the society.

At that time, Zheng Wang found out that Shi Ziran, the leader of the Qingcha Sect, was once a member of the Wenxiang Sect.

However, the Qingcha Sect later cooperated unusually with the Dongcheng Division and rarely did any evil deeds on weekdays, so Su Mu never took action against them.

Later, Zhou Yin, the deputy leader of the Qingcha Sect, also came to the yamen to explain that although their leader came from the Wenxiang Sect, he has now turned over a new leaf and has nothing to do with the Wenxiang Sect anymore.

Otherwise, Wuling City would not be able to accommodate him.

“Yes, sir. The inner city received news that a group of remnants of the Wenxiang Sect were hiding outside the eastern suburbs, so we sent people from the East City Division to wipe them out.”

Yu Xiujiang said.

“There are many remnants of the Wenxiang Sect. I remember that the court issued an order that even if someone had once joined the Wenxiang Sect, as long as they did not participate in the rebellion, they would be forgiven, right?”

Su Mu pondered.

When the Wenxiang Sect was in turmoil, it gathered millions of people, a large number of whom were bewitched and deceived.

It was impossible for the Daxuan Dynasty to kill all these people. In order to divide the Wenxiang Sect internally, it issued an order that as long as they turned over a new leaf, the court would forgive them.

At that time, many masters of the Wenxiang Sect did leave the sect because of this order, and the imperial court kept its word, not only exempting them from their crimes, but some of them even became officials.

People like Shi Ziran, although they also have a background in the Wenxiang Sect, are still active in the open and the imperial court has not tried to kill them all.

“It’s different. These remnants of the Wenxiang Sect are the kind of stubborn and hardened ones.”

Yu Xiujiang said, “I asked someone I know in the inner city to find out. It is said that the remnants found this time are the direct descendants of the Saint of the Wenxiang Sect. They also hold the whereabouts of the treasures hidden before the demise of the Wenxiang Sect!”

The Wenxiang Sect was a rebellious sect in the past. At its peak, its activities affected several large states, during which they looted countless rare treasures.

Later, the Wenxiang Sect was wiped out by the Daxuan Dynasty. The sect leader and the saint and others were all killed in the battle, but the treasure was never found.

Rumor has it that the Wenxiang Sect hid the treasure in some extremely secluded place in the hope of making a comeback one day.

Over the years, both the government and the martial artists have been searching for the Wenxiang Sect’s treasure, but no one has ever found it.

Su Mu also became interested. Gold, silver and treasures were fine. As the Sima of Dongcheng, it was easy for him to get silver.

Three years as a clean magistrate and 100,000 silver coins would be the same in any world.

Sima, although not as good as the prefect, is almost the same as the county magistrate.

However, the treasures of the Wenxiang Sect were not just gold, silver and jewelry. The reason why they were able to stir up such a big commotion back then was because of their military force.

Since it is a treasure prepared for a comeback, it must contain martial arts secrets, elixirs for cultivation, and magical weapons.

If we can find these, we will definitely have the blood transfusion method.

I was worried about not being able to find a way to do a blood transfusion, and now here I am.

“Are there any experts among the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect?”

Su Mu looked up at Yu Xiujiang and asked.

“There shouldn’t be any experts, otherwise the inner city wouldn’t have let only our Dongcheng Division take action.”

Yu Xiujiang said uncertainly.

Su Mu nodded. He still had a question in his mind, which involved the treasure of the Wenxiang Sect, which was a matter of concern to the Daxuan Dynasty.

It is said that those treasures are comparable to the annual taxes of the Daxuan Dynasty!

For such a big event, wouldn’t it be enough for the inner city to just send experts to catch them all in one fell swoop?

Why should Dongchengsi take action?
The strength of the East City Division is far inferior to that of the Inner City. If anything goes wrong and the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect escape, wouldn’t it be too late for regret?
Su Mu admitted that he was a little dark in his heart, but it is better to be safe than sorry.

He asked this question, wanting Yu Xiujiang to help him analyze it.

Although Yu Xiujiang is not very strong, as a scholar, what he is best at is playing tricks.

“I have inquired about this, too.”

Yu Xiujiang said confidently, “When it comes to the Wenxiang Sect, how can our small Dongcheng Division handle it?
For this purpose, I made a special trip to the inner city and asked several old friends about it.

Actually, it is like this. Firstly, because the inner city has recently sent out all its personnel, there is no suitable person to take action for the time being. Secondly, the inner city has received information that the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect are not very strong. In fact, the inner city does not believe that they really have clues to the Wenxiang Sect’s treasures. It can only be said that there is a possibility. “

“So you want us, the Dongcheng Division, to lead the charge?”

Su Mu pondered, “What happened in the inner city? Why is there a shortage of manpower?”

He suddenly thought that Luo An Ning had not appeared for a long time, and Lin Qihuan had been nowhere to be found. Even Zhao Po Nu, the pacification envoy of the Taiping Division, had disappeared without a trace.

Is this related to what Yu Xiujiang said?

Yu Xiujiang shook his head and said, “I really don’t know. My old friends don’t hold very high positions, so they don’t know the details. They only know that many experts in the inner city have left the city recently.”

He lowered his voice and whispered, “This matter should not be made public. Wuling City is actually a bit empty right now. If someone with ulterior motives knew about this, Wuling City would be in trouble.”

Su Mu nodded, not caring about this matter for the time being, but turning his attention back to the document in his hand.

The official document with the city lord’s seal must be executed by the Dongcheng Division no matter what.

“Yu Sicheng, go call Chen Song and Zheng Wang over. Since they are the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect and are diehards, and they have appeared in the territory of Dongcheng District, then we should deal with them.”

Su Mu thought about it and spoke slowly.

With his current strength, even if he encounters a strong man in the Blood Exchange Realm, he can escape if he cannot defeat him. In theory, there should be no danger.

After all, it was only the eastern suburbs. Even if something happened, he could return to the city in time and ask for help from the city defense forces or even the inner city.

If by any chance these remnants of the Wen Xiang Sect really have clues to the sect’s treasure, then we would make a fortune.
