Chapter 195: Gale Thunder Arrow Technique, Perfection!

Chapter 195: Gale Thunder Arrow Technique, Perfection!

Days later, Jiang Ning drew his bow, aiming at the surface of the lake.

In an instant, he pulled the bowstring to its limit.

Then, with a snap, the bowstring vibrated, creating a loud bang at the point of release.

Visible white mist appeared in the air.

The next moment, a thunderous boom echoed as the air tore open, and the arrow tore through the void, stirring up white shockwaves.

Wherever the shockwaves passed, they split the previously calm lake surface, leaving a trail in their wake.

The ripples spread along the path of the arrow's flight.

In the blink of an eye, the arrow appeared two li away.

Yet, the arrow continued to produce a deafening roar, tearing through the air and creating more white shockwaves.

After another moment, the arrow finally broke through the sonic barrier, its kinetic energy diminishing.

One more moment passed.

The arrow finally pierced the water, sticking into the lake.

[Name]: Jiang Ning

[Source Energy]: 15.3

[Technique]: Gale Thunder Arrow Technique (Perfection 1/2000)



Jiang Ning was amazed as he glanced at his status panel.

This was the first time he had pulled the bowstring to its limit after perfecting the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique, and the power it unleashed was astonishing.

Breaking through the sonic barrier was an achievement in itself, matching the terrifying effect of Cao Rong's arrow technique from that day.

Moreover, the duration of breaking through the sonic barrier with this arrow was longer than Cao Rong's.

"Is this the power of the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique at the perfection level?" Jiang Ning marveled once again.

Ever since he learned the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique, he discovered that he had mastered the unique power described in the technique.

It was this special force that created the terrifying effect of the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique.

As he improved the technique, the power grew stronger.

Now, with the perfection of the technique, the power had reached an unimaginable level.

It was this force, when infused into the arrow, that created such a terrifying effect.

According to the description of the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique, the arrow, when infused with this power, could retain the force for a duration depending on its strength.

Currently, his power, when attached to the arrow, could last for about two breaths.

During this time, if the arrow struck any target, it would explode with a tremendous roar and blasting effect.

It was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, a deafening roar akin to the descent of thunder.

This was also the origin of the name 'Gale Thunder Arrow Technique'.

"Intermediate martial arts are indeed far beyond the reach of beginner techniques!" Jiang Ning silently marveled as he personally experienced the perfection level of the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique.

Then, he drew the bow once more.

When the bowstring reached its limit, the wooden bow suddenly snapped in half.

Jiang Ning looked at the broken bow in his hand, shaking his head.

"It seems this bow is also ruined!"

He casually tossed the broken bow aside.

In the past few days, this wasn't the first bow that had met such a fate.

The intense stress of drawing and shooting arrows was too much for these ordinary longbows.

Especially now, with his excessive strength, any slight overuse would cause irreversible damage to the bow.

Jiang Ning felt that if he had a more suitable bow and better arrows, infused with the perfection level of the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique, the arrows he shot would be even more terrifying.

Taking up another longbow, Jiang Ning continued his practice.

Although the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique had reached perfection, his goal didn't end there.

Perhaps this technique could be pushed beyond its limits.

If it could, the power of the Gale Thunder Arrow Technique would surely reach new heights.

Snap!

Snap!

Snap!

The arrows pierced through the void.

Jiang Ning's vision was filled with constant notifications.

Watching the growing XP on his status panel, Jiang Ning felt even more motivated, not the slightest bit tired.

The changes and new attributes of the arrow technique after breaking its limits filled him with anticipation.

The next morning.

Snap!

The arrow pierced through the void.

Boom!

This arrow struck a reef, and in an instant, it was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, a deafening roar echoed, and broken stones flew in all directions.

The reef, originally as tall as a person, was now reduced to half its size.

Jiang Ning retrieved the arrow and looked to the side.

Instantly, he saw Feng Jiuge on the shore, her mouth wide open, her eyes wide and round with shock.

"Jiuge, what's with this arrow?" Jiang Ning asked.

These words snapped Feng Jiuge out of her daze.

"This arrow..." Feng Jiuge began, but paused, seeming to want to say more but unable to find the words.

"What's with this arrow?"

Jiang Ning asked.

Feng Jiuge swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Astonishing beauty!"

Jiang Ning smiled ambiguously, neither confirming nor denying.

Before Feng Jiuge even saw him, he had already sensed her arrival.

And with this arrow, he slightly restrained himself, but it was also a deliberate display for Feng Jiuge to see.

These days, he hadn't visited the Inspection Bureau and had been in seclusion, tirelessly practicing his arrow techniques.

Although Feng Jiuge was under his command, he couldn't be sure that she wouldn't have other thoughts.

In this situation, the stronger he appeared, the more determined Feng Jiuge would be to follow him.

No one wants to follow a weakling, someone without hope or a future.

He was strong enough that even if he didn't show himself, Feng Jiuge might easily develop other intentions.

Jiang Ning took a moment to compose himself before speaking, "Jiuge, you came to find me at this time, but is there something urgent at the Inspection Bureau?"

"No!" Feng Jiuge shook her head, then continued, "But didn't you forget about the matter we discussed a few days ago, exchanging the Canglang Saber Technique for my family's Inferno Spear Technique?"

Hearing these words, Jiang Ning suddenly realized.

He patted his head, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. I've been so focused on arrow cultivation these days that I temporarily forgot about it."

After saying this, Jiang Ning added, "I already have the copy of the Canglang Saber Technique with me."

As he spoke, Jiang Ning made a gesture of reaching into his bosom and pretended to take out a blue book.

On the cover of the book, several large characters were written.

[Canglang Saber Technique]



Jiang Ning then lightly leaped, his figure soaring into the air, and landed on the shore a zhang higher, appearing in front of Feng Jiuge.

"This is the Intermediate Martial Art, the Canglang Saber Technique."

At this moment, Feng Jiuge took the blue book, but her gaze was peculiar as she looked at Jiang Ning.

When she first arrived, she noticed that Jiang Ning had obviously been in the water.

However, as soon as she touched the book, she knew it wasn't made from waterproof materials.

In this situation, if Jiang Ning had taken the book into the water, it would have left traces and become wet.

But at this moment, she didn't find any water stains on the book.

This made her recall the night a few days ago.

During the raid on Cao's manor, she remembered that Jiang Ning hadn't carried any weapons, but when the black shadow attacked, Jiang Ning had already held a long sword to defend himself.

At some point, that long sword had disappeared from Jiang Ning's hand.

Now, seeing the peculiarity of this book again, her gaze fell on the dark black ring on Jiang Ning's finger.

Feng Jiuge's heart suddenly froze.

Then she also took out a brand-new book from her bosom.

"Sir, this is my family's Inferno Spear Technique, please take a look!" Feng Jiuge said.

Jiang Ning took the book from Feng Jiuge and began to flip through it.

At this moment, he immediately became very focused.

[Literacy XP +1]

Seeing this, Feng Jiuge stood silently by his side, observing Jiang Ning for a while.

Then she also started to read the Canglang Saber Technique.

In the blink of an eye.

Half an hour later.

Jiang Ning slowly closed the book.

[Skills]: Inferno Spear Technique (Uninitiated 0/10)



After glancing at his panel, Jiang Ning nodded slightly and directly stored the book with the Inferno Spear Technique in his Narsimha Ring.

Feng Jiuge's actions and micro-expressions, as well as her gaze, didn't escape Jiang Ning's notice.

He also knew that Feng Jiuge had probably guessed that he possessed the Narsimha Ring, so he didn't bother hiding it anymore.

Although the Narsimha Ring was precious.

But as mentioned before, using this item required many prerequisites.

Not only did it require spiritual power to be substantial and projectable, but it also required one to have so-called immortal roots or spiritual wisdom.

Therefore, the Narsimha Ring wasn't something ordinary people could use.

Jiang Ning also realized that even if someone knew he had the Narsimha Ring, there was no need to worry too much.

The crime of carrying a treasure was only applicable to true weaklings.

Although he wasn't a strong person yet, he had also moved beyond the weak.

With several divine abilities, a complete Intermediate arrow technique, seventh-stage Martial Dao strength, and mastery of Inner Breath.

With these skills, even a peak seventh-stage Martial Dao expert like Wang Jin couldn't compare to him.

Moreover, in Jiang Ning's opinion, anyone stronger than him would surely know the origins and conditions of the Narsimha Ring.

Because this wasn't some top-secret information, even Feng Jiuge was well aware of it.

As for those who didn't understand anything and coveted his Narsimha Ring, their strength was probably inferior to his.

For this reason, he had nothing to fear.

Since Feng Jiuge had already guessed it, he didn't bother to hide it anymore.

However, this scene, as seen through Feng Jiuge's eyes, was filled with shock.

She had only made a guess in her heart, but Jiang Ning's action just now clearly proved her speculation to be true.

"You...are a person with an immortal root?" Feng Jiuge was shocked beyond words.

She then thought to herself, "No wonder his talent is so high. With an immortal root, in ancient times, that was a qualification for becoming an immortal."

Feng Jiuge was stunned for a moment, then quickly regained her composure.

"Sir, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now?"

"Mm-hmm!" Jiang Ning nodded slightly, then said, "If there's anything at the manor, you can come here to find me. I'll continue my cultivation here!"

"Yes, sir!" Feng Jiuge replied.

After Feng Jiuge left.

Jiang Ning took a look at his interface.

【Name】: Jiang Ning

【Essence Energy】: 18.5

【Skills】:

Canglang Saber Technique (Great Accomplishment 151/1000)



Gale Thunder Arrow Art (Perfect 1673/2000)



Inferno Spear Technique (Uninitiated 0/10)



"Gale Thunder Arrow Art is still missing over three hundred experience points to meet the requirements for the first breakthrough. Let's first max out the experience for this skill!"

At this thought.

Jiang Ning continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.

Boom—

Boom—

Boom—

【Gale Thunder Arrow Art XP+1】

【Gale Thunder Arrow Art XP+1】

【Gale Thunder Arrow Art XP+1】

【.】

As he continued to shoot, the experience points for Gale Thunder Arrow Art kept increasing.

In the blink of an eye.

It was already afternoon.

Boom—

【Gale Thunder Arrow Art XP+1】

With another arrow shot, the experience points for Gale Thunder Arrow Art increased by one more point.

【Skills】: Gale Thunder Arrow Art (Perfect 2000/20000)



"Finally maxed out! Now I only lack Essence Energy points! If I'm not mistaken, the first breakthrough for Intermediate Martial Art requires 100 Essence Energy points, the same as the Five Beasts Fist."

"In other words, as long as I reach 100 Essence Energy points, I can achieve the first breakthrough for Gale Thunder Arrow Art!" Jiang Ning thought to himself.

【Essence Energy】: 18.5

"Now, I only need about eighty more points. This isn't difficult. I just need to buy some heavenly treasures and consume them!"

【Skills】: Canglang Saber Technique (Great Accomplishment 151/1000)



Inferno Spear Technique (Uninitiated 0/10)



He then took another glance at his interface.

"No rush. I'll wait until I've perfected Canglang Saber Technique and Inferno Spear Technique, then I'll prepare for this matter after my strength has greatly increased!"

After sorting out his thoughts.

Jiang Ning stored the longbow in his Narsimha Ring and leaped into the water with a "plop," completely submerging himself.

Once fully immersed, Jiang Ning felt like a fish in water, instantly entering a state of relaxation.

His body, nourished by the water, quickly reached the peak of its prime condition.

The next moment.

He swam like a dragon, swiftly weaving through the water.

This speed was no slower than his speed on land.

Especially underwater, within a radius of one li, all changes were clearly reflected in his mind.

It seemed as if everything was under his control.

"This is so cool!!"

This feeling of complete control, like having an omniscient perspective, made Jiang Ning feel secretly thrilled.

Such control gave him a tremendous sense of security.

This sense of security far surpassed what he felt on land.

"In the water, this is my strongest form!" Jiang Ning thought.

A moment later.

He arrived at the deserted island.

Due to the unique terrain, the wind was fierce, and the waves were turbulent.

The surface of the water was turbulent, and beneath it, the undercurrents surged, constantly crashing against the reefs and creating wavelets.

Arriving here, Jiang Ning instantly thought of He Jianglong Tian Buyi.

He had been practicing his saber at this very spot when he happened to encounter the injured Tian Buyi.

From Tian Buyi, he had obtained a stroke of fortune.

Two pills of the Leopard Embryo Transformation.

"Speaking of which, my achievements today are also thanks to Tian Buyi's help."

"Now, I wonder what attitude Medicine King Valley has towards me. Have they truly uncovered that I was the one behind this matter?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning couldn't help but fall into deep thought for a moment.

Then, he shook his head and chuckled.

"Forget it!"

"Thinking about this is pointless!"

"Now, I'll face the challenges as they come! As long as I'm strong enough, Medicine King Valley won't pose much of a threat to me!"

After clearing his thoughts, Jiang Ning quickly adjusted his state.

He began to practice his saber underwater.

【Canglang Saber Technique XP+1】

【Canglang Saber Technique XP+1】

【Canglang Saber Technique XP+1】

As he practiced here, the experience points for Canglang Saber Technique kept increasing!
