Abundant Martial Arts Virtue

The ground continued to tremble.

The Night King's face changed, revealing a rare hint of hesitation.

A man approached him and whispered,

"Your Majesty, this thing might be an unknown object from the Pangu World. Although it's very strange, it has nothing to do with our mission and goals."

"And the Earth Tribulation is about to begin..."

His words made sense!

The Night King nodded, reached out, and pointed at the subordinate who had reported earlier:

"Gao Sai, you stay behind for now, and report any situation in time."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Gao Sai immediately took the command.

The Night King waved his hand and commanded, "Everyone, return and prepare to face the Earth Tribulation—"

"The first three tribulations were just a warm-up; this one is the real deadly tribulation. All of you, brace yourselves!"

"Yes!" His subordinates responded in unison.

A flash in the Void.

The Night King and his subordinates all left.

Only Gao Sai remained, standing there dumbfounded.

He glanced at the eerie presence lying motionless on the ground, then smacked his forehead and said annoyedly,

"I should have reported that I found nothing at all, now I have to guard this damn place."

However, what's done was done, the Night King's command had been issued.

Gao Sai found a corner with lackluster enthusiasm and sat there quietly.

While keeping an eye on the mysterious presence lying flat, he awaited the arrival of the Earth Tribulation.

Time slowly passed.

The Earth Tribulation was about to begin!

Gao Sai grew increasingly nervous.

What he didn't know was that the corner he was sitting in was exactly where Wu Xiaode was.

At this moment.

Wu Xiaode was sitting not far from him.

The golden dog guarded Wu Xiaode vigilantly, ready to flip to the last page of the Book of the Dead if Gao Sai discovered him.

The three women could at least block for a while, no matter what.

Little Wu's understanding of boxing must not be interrupted!

Yet Gao Sai remained oblivious.

Suddenly.

A grand voice resounded between heaven and earth, like a long cry, penetrating the minds of all beings.

People subconsciously listened intently to the meaning contained in that voice:

"All beings and mysterious lives must carefully confront this tribulation!"

"The earth shakes, unleashing Pangu's power in its entirety, creating the Three Realms: Heaven, Earth, Humans."

"With Merit as the measure, all of you can obtain an initial skin, which is your identity within the Three Realms."

"During the Earth Split, as Ten Thousand Ghosts emerge, you must continuously promote your identity, change skins, to have a sliver of chance for survival."

"Be vigilant! Be vigilant!"

The voice gradually faded away.

As if he had expected this, Gao Sai let out a laugh filled with malice.

The next instant.

His dirty coat suddenly disappeared.

In its place was a black leather jacket full of spikes with a few big words written on the back:

"Netherworld Ghost Soldier."

"Haha, talk about Ten Thousand Ghosts emerging, from now on, we are Evil Ghosts!"

"Watch me kill all you trash lives."

Gao Sai stood up, walked to the door, pushed it open, and was about to go out and kill.

Outside the door.

The rolling hills were desolate, with no sign of life.

The earth continued to shake.

Deep fissures burst open, spewing demonic energy and flames into the sky.

Unending screams and lamentations came from the fissures.

—There were no mortals in sight.

Gao Sai silently watched for a while.

Boom!

He closed the door and silently walked back to sit on the ground.

"Sigh, my masters are definitely slaughtering their way through, constantly changing skins..."

"Yet I have to stay in this godforsaken place."

Gao Sai spoke to himself, somewhat disheartened.

At the same time.

Wu Xiaode remained motionless.

Lines of ice crystal small characters quietly appeared in the Void:

"All worlds have just merged into the Pangu World, and the beings are vast and immeasurable."

"You have just saved countless lives through a live broadcast."

"For this action, you've gained Merit: 60000 points."

"Expend all Merit to generate your initial skin."

"It's discovered that you already have a Divine Position in Heaven."

"With these 60000 points of Merit, activate your Heavenly attribute."

In an instant.

Around Wu Xiaode's splendid frost armor, countless fluttering peach blossoms quietly appeared.

——Kunlun Mountain Immortal Peach Orchard Ning Shen Temple exclusive skin!

Unlike Gao Sai, Wu Xiaode's skin was not any sort of clothing but the constantly fluttering peach blossoms!

As soon as the skin was put on, Gao Sai immediately reacted.

However, it did not detect Wu Xiaode.

It brought its hands together in prayer, facing in Wu Xiaode's direction, and made a wish,

"Please bless me to kill all the humans I encounter, so I can gain the incredibly powerful Evil Ghost skin!"

As the voice fell,

Gao Sai turned around and continued sitting there motionless.

——It seemed unaware of what it had just done.

At that moment, Wu Xiaode finally opened his eyes.

He looked at the rows of ice crystal letters that appeared before him:

"Using the 'Kunlun Mountain Immortal Peach Orchard Ning Shen Temple' exclusive skin, automatically acquire the 'Heavenly True God' effect."

"Description: All beings that are not True Gods will reveal their innermost thoughts in your presence, speaking their truest desires."

"——Make a wish, mortal."

"——Please find a way to upgrade your skin, you will become stronger."

Wu Xiaode's gaze slid over these words.

He stood up and slowly walked in front of Gao Sai, looking at the spike-covered skin armor it was wearing.

Mysterious life had never descended to the human world before, starting to kill upon arrival, thus their Merit was naturally in the negatives.

Therefore, their skin was of the Evil Ghost type.

——Then, what about all other beings?

Naturally, they would obtain skins in accordance with their own good or evil Merit.

In this Earth Tribulation faced against the Ten Thousand Ghosts,

one must keep upgrading their skin in order to carve out a path of survival.

But——

How does one upgrade their skin?

Wu Xiaode pondered this briefly before deciding not to continue thinking about it for now.

At this very moment,

right in front of his eyes,

he had more important things to do!

Gao Sai sat on the ground, counting on its fingers with a look of anticipation about how many people it was going to kill.

Wu Xiaode stood in front of it, assuming a stance with his hands clenched into fists——

Faint golden light suddenly flashed around him.

Taking advantage of the gathering golden light, he launched a full-strength punch at Gao Sai.

Thump.

His fist struck Gao Sai's face hard, completely deforming it.

In a flash,

it flew out like a cannonball, "bang" went the sound as it broke through the freshly repaired wall, continuously striking the ground, taking off and striking again, rolling for hundreds of meters before coming to a stop.

Numerous prompt runes appeared before Wu Xiaode:

"You have killed a Netherworld ghost soldier."

"With this Merit, immediately upgrade your Heavenly True God skin."

"Your current skin has been upgraded to 'Kunlun Mountain Immortal Peach Orchard Ning Shen Warrior'."

"Under the Law of 'Love, Dreams, World Peace,' everyone's strength and agility are equal, but using this skin, you will automatically gain three times the strength."

The peach blossoms swirling around Wu Xiaode vanished.

Behind him, the silhouette of a towering giant materialized quietly.

This giant wielded a massive axe, ready to deliver a world-shattering blow at any moment.

——The giant silhouette was the Ning Shen Warrior!

Wu Xiaode grumbled discontentedly, "Hey, this isn't right. I am the master of Ning Shen Temple, so why give me a warrior skin?"

The prompt rune reappeared:

"Be content. To become a Heavenly True God in one leap and to obtain a 'Heaven' attribute skin has already put you above billions of other beings."

"Killing three ghost creatures will upgrade your skin again."

"Keep up the good work!"

"——Someday, you will obtain the 'Ning Shen Temple Master' skin."

Wu Xiaode had no choice but to accept it.

After all, his strength was now three times that of "others"—

This "others" included all mystical lives.

In that case, it was still quite remarkable.

What's more important—

he had finally mastered the boxing technique "Tai Chu."

Wu Xiaode looked at the combat records on the Book of the Dead, which read:

"You have killed a Netherworld ghost soldier with a single strike of the 'Tai Chu' boxing technique."

"Once this boxing technique is used, it must strike the enemy's weak point directly; if the hit area is not a weak point, that area will become one;"

"Once this boxing technique is used, the striker immediately enters an 'unmatched' state, unaffected by any Law;"

"Please continue to comprehend this boxing technique in battle."

"It will become even more formidable."

It was no wonder that he had spent so much effort to learn this boxing technique.

It was no wonder even Tao Spirit Xie wanted to collect all the techniques!

Wu Xiaode clenched his fist tightly, held his breath, and assumed a boxing stance in place, waiting silently.

One moment.

Two moments.

Three moments.

Suddenly, a fierce shout came from the Void:

"Who killed the vanguard general of the Night King?"
