My Martial Arts Level Never Drops

Chapter 226: Chapter 131: Natural Disaster?

True Martial County was gone.

Because True Martial County had been at the very center of this new swamp!

Not a single roof tile could be found.

They had even tried to get closer, but the path was cut off. The mountain road had been pressed down by a giant hand, creating a cliff hundreds of meters high. Loose stones would occasionally tumble from the precipice, a heart-pounding sight.

Above the Five-Finger Swamp Country, a few birds could be seen circling.

But it was dead silent...

No mysterious figures, no monsters.

Everything had vanished without a trace.

”The fingers... It was really a person...”

”How can a person be this strong?”

The three of them stared blankly, unable to snap out of it for a long, long time.

In the end, it was their master who calmed down first.

”The Divine Domain is a completely different World from the Mortal Realm... We can’t use our old common sense to judge the terror of the Divine Domain.”

Qin Fang and his senior brother came back to their senses.

They nodded lightly.

”Looks like that mysterious organization has probably been completely wiped out.”

After a palm strike that could shatter heaven and earth, Qin Fang and the others couldn’t imagine how the mysterious organization could have possibly survived!

His senior brother pressed his lips together, gazing into the distance.

Finally, the master and his two disciples returned.

They shared everything they had seen with the others in the camp, leaving everyone stunned and speechless.

They couldn’t possibly imagine what a swamp shaped like fingers would look like...

But regardless...

The disaster that had them living in fear for nearly half a year seemed to have truly passed.

It ended with a mysterious Great Power taking action and annihilating the mysterious organization!

Their revenge...

Had been achieved, in a way, hadn’t it?

Xiao Jiu clung to Qin Fang’s arm and wept uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face.

Qinghe hugged his other arm, silently shedding tears.

Qin Fang sighed softly, letting them hold onto him.

Then, they began to discuss what to do next.

”We obviously can’t live here in True Martial anymore. We have to leave. Let’s go to the Prefecture City... I hope Shuang Ci is alright.”

Worry flickered in their master’s eyes.

Several months ago, before they were meant to leave, he had sent five letters to their senior sister, but he never received a single reply. There were two possibilities: either something had happened to the Prefecture City, or... something had happened to their senior sister.

In truth, everyone was worried.

Now that the Mysterious Power was most likely gone, and they could no longer live in True Martial County... it was only natural to go to the Prefecture City and see what was happening.

...Since that Great Power named ’Yue Zhenyuan’ had dealt with the trouble here in True Martial.

Then if there really was trouble in the Prefecture City, it would have surely been resolved long ago.

Now... it was time to head to the Prefecture City.

”It’s a shame. This Bee Meat is so effective. Once we go to the Prefecture City, it won’t be easy to come back for more...”

His senior brother said, looking toward Old Ox Back.

Qin Fang was also conflicted.

...Of course, they could start capturing large numbers of Giant Bees now and take them on the road.

But what then?

The Bee Meat would eventually run out.

And its shelf life was limited.

There was also the mysterious liquid...

And the Treasure Plant...

And even that Cold Cave—they didn’t know how deep it went, but at sixty meters, there were likely still Treasures to be found...

There were simply too many mysterious and precious things on Old Ox Back.

And they couldn’t take any of it with them.

After a moment of thought, Qin Fang said, ”If we really need to, we can always just come back. It’ll be a hassle, but... the Prefecture City can’t be that far from here, can it?”

”By water, about ten to fifteen days. By land, about... one to two months.”

His master’s words turned Qin Fang to stone.

”That far?”

”What did you expect?”

His senior brother sighed.

...If it weren’t so far, he wouldn’t be so reluctant to leave it all behind.

But they had to go to the Prefecture City. They couldn’t just stay in the wilderness forever.

Especially with the strange situation concerning their senior sister, which was also a great cause for concern.

”Let’s stay here a while longer. I want to try Breaking Realm one more time.”

His master said after a moment of thought.

Qin Fang thought for a moment and nodded as well...

He was also on the verge of entering the Late Anjin Stage!

Once they set off, he was afraid there wouldn’t be much time to cultivate each day.

Once he entered the Late Anjin Stage and grasped Endless Circulation, he would be able to cultivate on the road... and begin preparing to enter the Huajin realm.

...After witnessing the terrifying power of that Great Power, Qin Fang’s heart was filled with motivation and longing...

... ’If I could one day cultivate to that level, launching a Catastrophe Level attack with a single wave of my hand, how powerful would that be?’

Just the thought of it made his heart race with anticipation!

And it was entirely possible for him to achieve it.

After all, he had his panel. As long as he cultivated step-by-step, there were no bottlenecks he couldn’t overcome.

But at the same time, he had to leave...

...Because here in True Martial, there was no path for him to advance into the Divine Domain.

The techniques his master had passed down to him could only take him to the Huajin realm at most.

And the Wild Bull Qi Strength Pile had already proven one thing.

...A wooden ladder can’t reach the heavens.

He needed to go to a bigger place and find a taller ladder to the clouds to truly find the path to ascend to the heavens!

Naturally, no one else had any objections to the master’s proposal.

Although their master’s wife was worried about her daughter’s safety... she also knew that panicking was useless.

In fact, her master’s desire to break through was most likely driven by a need for more strength... If something really had happened to their senior sister, no matter what it was, he would have a much better chance of dealing with it as a Huajin master than as an Anjin one.

In the days that followed, they continued to maintain the camp, while Qin Fang threw himself completely into his cultivation.

His proficiency soared day by day.

His master once again entered a state of accumulation, hoping to break through to the Huajin realm in one go... With the experience from his last attempt, he felt his chances were much higher this time.

His senior brother, Monkey, Xiao Qi... everyone threw themselves into their cultivation as well.

His senior brother was still a ways off from the Middle Stage, but with daily Inner Refining, he still made considerable progress.

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

Soon, the new year arrived.

On New Year’s Eve, their master’s wife prepared a table of delicious food. Everyone raised their cups, using water in place of wine.

”Happy New Year.”

His master said softly.

”Happy New Year.”

they replied.
