I Have A Martial Arts Panel

Chapter 100: The Mortal Realm Eighth Stage

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

200 gold notes was Xu Ning’s condition after careful consideration.

If he really wanted to get on this shaky ride, he must first ensure his own safety.

He currently had 45 units of energy remaining. If he could get 200 gold notes and use them to buy some spirit medicines, he could possibly gain an additional 250 units of energy.

At that point, he would have close to 300 units of energy total.

He needed only 200 units of energy to be promoted from the state mind realm to the intention realm.

With that amount of energy, he could easily break through to the intention realm.

Moreover, after advancing, he would have close to 100 units of energy remaining.

Prior to Han Huxiao’s injury, he was in the intention realm.

In the intention realm, Han Huxiao was able to protect the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall for so long. So, after Xu Ning reached the intention realm as well, as long as he was cautious, it would not be difficult to keep himself safe.

“200 gold notes, no problem!”

Han Huxiao did not hesitate to agree to Xu Ning’s condition.

In fact, 200 gold notes was not a small sum for Han Huxiao.

Although the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall had a wide range of influence in the Chun Rin Canton, such as darts and martial arts tutoring, even then, their annual revenue was only a few hundred gold taels.

After considering all the costs, the profit that went into Han Huxiao’s pockets was not much more than what Xu Ning was asking.

Hence, these 200 taels of gold must be taken out of their savings.

“Deputy Hall Master Xu, regardless whether we can survive this month or not, I have to thank you.”

Han Huxiao sincerely said, “If push comes to shove, you don’t have to stay behind, just get out of here. I just hope that at that time, you can bring Han Yue and Du Che with you. I will protect myself.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ning made another promise.

“Then I’ll head off now. Later, I will bring you the void realm secret technique.”

After getting Xu Ning’s promise, Han Huxiao began to feel relieved.

…

At night.

After dinner.

Inside Xu Ning’s room, the table was full of spirit medicines he had bought in the afternoon.

Not long after Han Huxiao left, he gave Xu Ning the void realm secret technique and gold notes.

Xu Ning went out to buy spirit medicines with the gold notes.

After confirming that his door was closed, Xu Ning began to absorb the energy in the spirit medicines.

Soon after, the small pile of spirit medicines was completely absorbed by Xu Ning and turned into dust.

The spirit medicines purchased by these 200 gold taels increased Xu Ning’s energy by 253 units.

He now had a total of 298 units of energy.

Name: Xu Ning

Martial Arts:

Spring Breeze Tactic (Mortal realm seventh stage: state mind realm)+

Source Breath Bodybuilding Tactic (Perfection Realm)

Gale Knife Technique (Perfection Realm)

Light Feather Bow Technique (Elementary Realm) +

Available energy: 298 units

—

With enough energy accumulated, Xu Ning began to promote his internal skill.

—

Consume 200 units of energy to advance the Spring Breeze Tactic?

Yes/No

—

“Yes sir.”

Xu Ning clicked yes.

Just like when he advanced to the state mind realm, Xu Ning first felt dizzy in his mind before the feeling of being clairvoyant came like a huge wave.

Although he still couldn’t see inside his body, Xu Ning could sense every detail of his body.

Xu Ning slapped forward, creating a muffled noise in the air.

‘My advancement from the state mind realm to the intention realm mainly heightened my sensitivity.’

Xu Ning could feel his body changing. ‘My sensitivity to internal qi and my proficiency in manipulating my body has increased yet again. Prior to this, I could only use simple force catalyzing methods such as explosive, tearing, and oppression, but now, I can even use spiral force, increasing its power and lethality.’

‘In addition, my defensive capabilities have also improved. Moreover, my high internal qi reserves will allow me to always be full of strength. With my hardened skin, I can defend against most damage that my body could face, and thus allowing me to confront stronger enemies!’

His improvement in strength once again boosted Xu Ning’s confidence.

With the two perfection realm external skills and the strength of an intention realm warrior, he was now even stronger than Han Huxiao.

‘If Hall Master Han was able to deal with the situation in the past, then it shouldn’t be a problem for me now.’

Xu Ning was confident that he could protect himself against the crisis that the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall would face soon.

‘I have been promoted to the mortal realm eighth stage, and I am now only one step away from the ultimate mortal realm, the mortal realm ninth stage: spirit realm!’

Xu Ning felt rather emotional.

The realm that he could only wish to achieve in the past, was now only one step away from him.

‘Let’s check how much energy is needed to advance to the spirit realm.’

Xu Ning clicked the “+” sign beside the Spring Breeze Tactic.

—

Consume 300 units of energy to advance the Spring Breeze Tactic?

Yes/No

—

“Yes.”

Xu Ning tried it.

—

Insufficient energy, advancement failed.

—

Xu Ning was just testing to see what would happen.

‘300 units of energy doesn’t seem like a lot.’

Nowadays, as his realm improved and as he was getting stronger and stronger, Xu Ning found it easier to obtain huge amounts of energy.

‘It is relatively easy to advance to the spirit realm, that is as long as I have enough energy. But if I want to advance to the void realm, then it will be troublesome.’

Xu Ning had previously learned about advancement to the void realm from Wei Changqing.

There was a big difference between the mortal realm and the void realm.

As far as the mortal realm internal skill and void realm secret scroll were concerned, the two were similar in fundamental ways; both were practice methods that allowed one to break through from one realm to another.

However, there were no significant differences between the types of mortal realm internal skills available. Regardless of which type of internal skill, they had their own merits and demerits. After cultivating the internal skill, there were not much differences, similar to different versions of textbooks concerning the same syllabus.

But the void realm secret scrolls were different. According to Wei Changqing, void realm secret scrolls involved a higher level of power, and there was a significant difference in quality between different types of secret scrolls.

A high-quality void realm secret scroll had a higher upper limit and would provide the practitioner stronger combat abilities.

A low-quality void realm secret scroll would not only restrict one’s limit, but it would also make it impossible for the practitioner to reach the strength of an average warrior of the same realm.

Xu Ning had the Martial Arts Panel, and he had high expectations of himself. So of course, he wanted a high-quality void realm secret scroll.

However, reality was cruel. Even a low quality void realm secret scroll couldn’t be obtained by ordinary mortal realm warriors.

Xu Ning had no way to come in contact with a void realm secret scroll.

‘I can only take one step at a time.’

Xu Ning knew that it would take some luck for him to obtain a void realm secret scroll.

‘Let’s practice the void realm secret technique given to me by Hall Master Han first.’

Xu Ning placed a mottled old book on the desk and gently wiped the surface.

The surface of the old book was engraved with the words “Tidal Fist”.

‘Tidal Fist.’

This was the void realm secret technique given to him by Han Huxiao.

‘What’s the difference between a void realm secret technique and a mortal realm external skill?’

Xu Ning was filled with expectations.

He lifted the pages of the book and began to flip through it.

What Xu Ning had to do now was to learn the essence of the Tidal Fist and engrave it on his Martial Arts Panel.
