【Gate of the Heavens (Charging)】

…

“I’m seventeen years old…”

Happy Home Community.

Fang Xing focused his attention on the attribute column and couldn’t help but sigh.

The Qinglin Market is being harassed by evil birds and will surely be in turmoil for a while.

At the very least, today is definitely a mess.

Therefore, he chose to travel back directly.

According to the rules of the Gate of All Heavens, the next time he travels through time, he should appear in the basement of his rental house at No. 57 in District T.

“It’s a good opportunity to avoid the chaos… After all, I have a mountain of gold now, and it would be ridiculous to fight for a few copper coins.”

Fang Xing touched his chin and said, “Now that monsters are rampant, I really can’t feel at ease without a laser gun… In addition, I also need to get and master A-level martial arts as soon as possible.”

As for the path to A-level martial arts?

Apart from the unreliable black market channels, he now only has two targets.

The first one is naturally Teacher Xia Long. You can give him a phone call and ask. It may disturb his vacation, but Teacher Xia Long probably won’t mind… right?

The second one is Gu Yun!

This future school girl must have the inheritance of the ‘Ghost Sword’ in her hands.

Of course, having the ‘Ghost Sword’ inheritance is nothing, after all, the Ghost Sword, Crazy Eighteen Strikes, and Crazy Magic Stick Method are public textbooks for high schools!
As long as you reach the realm, you can apply to learn.

But the other party should give you some preliminary guidance so that you can get started smoothly.

‘Without the ‘Magic Sword’, it would be very difficult to get started with the Ghost Sword, but I have the attribute panel, maybe I can give it a try?’

Fang Xing thought about it and felt that Teacher Xia Long was more reliable, so he called him first.

“Beep, the user you are calling is out of service area, please call again later…”

Soon, a sweet voice replied.

“Not in the service area?”

Fang Xing was stunned: “Teacher Xia Long…isn’t he going to another planet?”

Interstellar communications are extremely expensive and cannot be extended to the entire Eagle Planet.

If Xia Long went on vacation to an alien planet, it would be normal that his phone was unreachable.

“It seems… I can only see Teacher Xia Long after school starts? Damn… I also want to travel to an alien planet… The entertainment industry in the Federation is actually quite developed. There are even planets dedicated to enjoyment…”

After mumbling for a while, Fang Xing called Gu Yun again.

This talented top student was there the whole time and answered the message within a few seconds.

“It’s you. What’s the matter?” Gu Yun had a cold expression, as if he was going to speak his mind.

“It’s like this, I want to learn the ‘Ghost Sword’! Can you send me the detailed information?” Fang Xing knew Gu Yun’s style and got to the point.

“Ghost Sword? Have you mastered the magic sword?” Gu Yun’s eyes lit up.

“No, I haven’t learned that…”

Fang Xing shook his head.

Gu Yun could not help but remain silent. After a while, she sent a few videos and materials: “I will send you my private teaching videos. Although this version of the Ghost Sword is richer than the textbook and has many tricks, I must tell you… This is what my teacher taught me. It has my style and may not be suitable for you. Moreover, if you don’t control the devil nature, it will be very difficult to get started with the Ghost Sword. Even if you get started, you may go astray!”

“I know, I’m just reviewing the new course in advance, thank you.”

Fang Xing smiled at Gu Yun and hung up the phone.

Of course he knew that the best way to learn martial arts was to teach by example, and the other party was teaching Gu Yun. Although the information was certainly richer than that in the public textbooks, it might also have a strong personal style.

What is suitable for Gu Yun may not be suitable for him. He may make more mistakes the more he practices!
‘But I have the attribute panel, so I can still give it a try…’

“If it doesn’t work, I’ll hire a private instructor. Even though a private instructor’s lesson costs tens of thousands of yuan, I have some money now…”

Fang Xing calmed himself down before clicking on a piece of information sent by Gu Yun.

First of all, of course, is the entire secret book of “Ghost Sword”, as well as many annotations.

He first took a general look to get a general idea of it, and then clicked on a video.

A light screen appeared, revealing a woman in her thirties wearing a black tights and with a centipede-shaped scar on her face.

With the federal medical technology, scars can be completely removed without leaving any traces.

He left this scar intentionally, apparently because it was very memorable, but I don’t know if it was out of love or hatred…

“A-level martial arts is a brilliant achievement created by many martial arts masters in the Federation. It can simulate the power of artistic conception-level martial arts and protect one’s own spirit. It involves many disciplines. According to the classification, the Ghost God Sword can actually be divided into several stages: meditation, hypnosis, killing ghosts, killing gods, fighting ghosts and gods… If you want to get started with the Ghost God Sword, it is best to first master the Demon Sword, control the demonic nature, and send and receive as the heart desires…”

“The first step of meditation is to meditate on the state of mind of the ‘ghost sword’. Its state of mind is ‘with a sword in hand, no ghosts or gods will stay’! Some warriors cannot understand it and replace it with ‘killing state of mind’, which is ultimately proven to be the wrong path… During meditation, distracting thoughts arise and killing intent is alarming. At this time, the magic sword’s demonic nature needs to be used to subdue it…”

…

The woman in black spoke in a leisurely manner, and Fang Xing felt that he benefited a lot from it.

“Sure enough, the Ghost Sword does not require the Demon Sword as a prerequisite. In fact, you can get started directly, but it is very difficult and requires extremely high meditation skills, and the spirit must reach the state of ‘no law and no thoughts’ to replace the magic nature of the Demon Sword…”

“The key is… what exactly is the meaning of ‘With a knife in hand, no ghosts or gods can stay’?”

Fang Xing really wanted to complain.

In the video, the female swordsman in black simply drew out her sword and let Gu Yun feel it.

Through the screen, he couldn’t feel anything at all!

“Sure enough, teaching by example, teaching by example… this is the role of a good teacher. If it was Xia Long, he should be able to inspire a state of mind and let me feel it, but now…”

Fang Xing shook his head: “Even if the Federation releases the permission for ‘learning devices’, this kind of mysterious state of mind may not be able to be learned through consciousness indoctrination…”

“Ghost Sword, Ghost Sword… If you want to get started, you probably have to hire a warrior who masters the Ghost Sword to demonstrate the artistic conception. Most of the other A-level martial arts are like this… Demonstrating the artistic conception is just to obtain the qualification to practice, which is far from getting started…”

The difficulty of mastering A-level martial arts was so great that Fang Xing sighed.

…

The next day.

Old town, black market.

After disguising himself, Fang Xing came here again.

There’s no way, I’m still short of money!

Therefore, he used spiritual sand to buy a large amount of gold in the market at the price of picking up garbage, and prepared to sell it.

The sale of gold and money laundering went smoothly.

When passing by the Blood Cage Fighting Arena, Fang Xing had an idea and walked in.

The bunny girl is still at the front desk of the fighting arena today.

“Hello, Meat Bun… Uh, this code name is a bit out of place, can you change it?”

Fang Xing’s eyes moved down from the bunny girl’s plump red lips, saw two big white meat buns, and immediately spoke.

“You can call me by my name—Zhang Jiarui!”

Zhang Jiarui smiled and replied: “The guests came early again today, and the blood cage fighting has not yet begun…”

“Ahem… If I want to experience the artistic conception of the ‘Ghost Sword’, is there any way?”

Fang Xing coughed and stated his needs.

“Ghost Sword? As one of the three most popular A-level martial arts, many fighters in the fighting arena have mastered it. The most famous ones are ‘Black Sparrow’, ‘Iron Hand’, and ‘Multi-Armed Sword’…”

Zhang Jiarui thought for a moment and replied, “The guests can make an appointment for a weapon fighting match. With these three boxers participating, they will most likely be able to witness the artistic conception of the Ghost Sword… But the artistic conception evoked during fighting is completely different from that during teaching…”

Wanting to understand the artistic conception by watching a game is as unrealistic as dreaming.

“Is that so? Very good, book me a fight with three people nearby.”

Fang Xing took out his black market communicator.

“Sure, the next one will be in two days, at nine o’clock in the evening, and ‘Iron Hand’ will appear!” Zhang Jiarui checked the information and immediately reported the time and place: “Ordinary seats are 5,000 star yuan per person, VIP seats…”

“Just the ordinary seats.”

Fang Xing waved his hand. The prices on the black market were always heart-pounding no matter how many times he looked at them.

He got an invitation to a fighting arena, strolled around the black market, and then walked towards the new city area.

In the darkness, a lizard seemed to glance at him, then flicked its tail, dived into the sewer, and quickly disappeared…

…

In the sewer, all kinds of pipes crisscross each other, emitting a pungent smell.

The underground pipeline design drawings of the old city had long been buried in the dust of history, and now had become a mess that no one could fully explore.

In a hidden room, a rough-skinned hand grabbed the lizard, and a smile appeared in its triangular eyes: “Finally, you found a suitable target? After these few attacks, your net worth should be at least 500,000 star coins, right?”

To be honest, this amount of money is unlikely to attract any powerful people, and it is unlikely that black market guns will be used – even the cost cannot be recovered.

But he doesn’t mind taking action once.

After all, the opponent looks quite weak.

Lance, the ‘Scavenger’, was just an insignificant little figure in the black market. Even so, he was a warrior at the Jade Realm and had even awakened a special power, gaining the ability to communicate with some small animals!

This time, he set his sights on Fang Xing!
