Chapter One Fainted

  The main purpose of this trip is twofold. The first is to copy the sword manual, which has already been completed. The second is to find the "War God Record". As the ultimate skill of the War Clan's number one person, it will not be stored on the first floor of the Martial Pavilion. As for where it can be found, Xiao Zhan has no idea in his heart. After all, no one has seen it in a thousand years, and the hiding place must be very hidden.

  The layout of the second floor is the same as that of the first floor, with ten secret rooms for storing books. After reaching the second floor, Xiao Zhan was very interested in the legendary Xianwu Secret Book and wanted to take a look. However, when he tried to push open the door, he found it tightly locked and impossible to enter.

  The door had no lock on it, but when pushed hard, it didn't budge. Ten Zhangmen Xiaozhan tried one after another, with the same result. Frowning slightly, he opened his True Eye and looked at the large door in front of him.

  A silver light flashed in his eyes, and under the True Eye, he only saw a thin layer of energy attached to the door. Not only that, but the entire second floor was also covered by this layer of energy. When Xiao Zhan wanted to observe these energy structures further, he found that the True Eye could not see any deeper, and could only see this thin layer of energy.

  Under the circumstances, Xiao Zhan could only call out Little Honey to take a look. Little Honey just took a glance and chuckled: "Master doesn't need to worry, there's a restriction on the door, if one's cultivation isn't at the Immortal Warrior level, they can't enter. Master wants to break the prohibition 'Omnipotent Breakthrough' needs at least 6th or 7th level, of course, if Master really reaches that level, naturally can enter, this restriction doesn't need to be broken."

  Xiao Zhan said somewhat reluctantly: "Is there no other way?"

  Xiao Mi shook her head and said, "No."

  Xiao Zhan was quite depressed, shook his head and walked upstairs. Xiao Mi smiled and returned to the ring. Since even the door on the second floor couldn't be opened, let alone the third floor, Xiao Zhan didn't bother to look anymore and went straight to the fourth floor. Fortunately, the door on the fourth floor had no restrictions, and with a light push, it opened.

  As soon as Xiao Zhan stepped inside the door, he felt himself being stared at by a gaze, like a thorn in his side, making him extremely uncomfortable. However, within this gaze, Xiao Zhan couldn't sense any hostility, as if an elder was scrutinizing their younger generation.

  That gaze came from a portrait on the wall of the great hall, where the man in armor was vividly depicted. When Xiao Zhan's eyes fell upon the portrait, the opposite wall suddenly disappeared, and the figure in the painting walked out.

  The man wore a golden dragon-scale armor, with a golden dragon-head helmet on his head. Only a pair of eyes were exposed outside. He had a sword and knife inserted behind his back, holding a dragon-shaped long gun in his hand. Although he was standing quietly like this, a strange aura and pressure emanated from him, making Xiao Zhan feel an urge to worship.

  The man in front of him seemed to be the god of war who walked out of mythology, with the afterglow of sunset shining through the window, his dragon-scale armor gleaming with golden light, dazzling and eye-catching.

  The portrait of the God of War, could he be the war god of the War Clan?

  Xiao Zhan stared with wide eyes, looking incredulously at the scene in front of him.

  Suddenly, the feeling of being stared at appeared again, and Xiao Zhan felt a chill run down his spine. In the midst of fear, he saw that the pair of eyes on the dragon's head suddenly burst forth with dazzling divine light. Xiao Zhan's gaze met theirs, and his heart trembled, after which he felt as if he had returned to the moment of his birth, when curses surrounded him, causing him to gradually wither away, his mother's worried expression, and the journey of his life over the past decade seemed to be relived once more.

  "Alas!"

  A sigh echoed, startling Xiao Zhan awake from his memories. The War God's eyes shone like stars, his gaze piercing through the Wu Ge, looking out over the entire War Valley, and in an instant, flames of anger blazed within his eyes.

  At that moment, the entire War Valley felt his anger.

  The flames of anger came quickly, and went just as fast, but when he withdrew his gaze, the War God's eyes returned to calmness. Suddenly, Xiao Zhan's body was frozen in place, unable to move even a little, and then his body slowly floated up.

  The War God's gaze turned to him once again, with a divine light shooting out from his eyes and shining onto his body. In an instant, every cell in Xiao Zhan's body was buzzing with vibration, the blood in his body boiling like water that had been brought to a boil, churning and bubbling more and more violently.

  Suddenly, Xiao Zhan's skeleton and flesh suddenly shattered and reassembled in an instant, repeating this process until he was on the verge of death. With each reassembly, the impurities in Xiao Zhan's body were constantly being removed, his flesh and bones were also constantly being purified and condensed.

  Suddenly, Xiao Zhan felt a surge of power awakening within him, every cell in his body buzzing like boiling water. As if sensing the change in his body, the War God's gaze grew even brighter.

  "Boom!"

  A loud explosion sounded within Xiao Zhan's body, causing his mind to tremble violently. He felt that a certain acupoint in his body had been opened, and a massive force suddenly appeared out of thin air. As the acupoint opened, intense vibrations swept through him, and Xiao Zhan felt his physical body undergo another transformation.

  When the physical transformation stopped, Xiao Zhan found that his body had regained control. In a moment of surprise, he opened the inner vision of the True Eye. After a search, he discovered that not only had his skeleton and flesh become more condensed, but his physical strength had also increased by 2000 crystals out of thin air. This discovery made Xiao Zhan both surprised and delighted, but suddenly he furrowed his brow again. Just now it seemed like another acupoint in his body had opened up, but why couldn't he see anything?

  Xiao Zhan, unwilling to give up, once again probed cautiously. As he slowly performed the 36-style "Gathering Star Fist", he used his True Eye to closely examine the surroundings. When performing the "Blazing Star Fist", Xiao Zhan's punching speed was noticeably faster than before. One punch burst out fiercely, and a scorching power surged out from within him. In an instant, his fist was enveloped in flames, and a gigantic flame-shaped fist smashed out, striking towards the War God's location.

  "Ahh!!!"

  Its might was unmatched, the heat waves churned, and just as Xiao Zhan was stunned, the flame-transformed fist disappeared into a large golden gate. Looking at this suddenly appearing gate, he was stunned, somewhat at a loss.

  Isn't this a wall? How did it suddenly turn into a door?

  The power of that punch just now far surpasses all other types of fist methods. It seems that the newly opened acupoint must be from the "Blazing Star Fist" line. But isn't the growth of each acupoint's power only ten crystals? How did it suddenly surge to two thousand crystals?

  Under the gaze of the Real Eye, Xiao Zhan still had not detected the location of the newly opened acupoint, which left him perplexed. He shook his head, thinking that this was a good thing since his strength had increased greatly, and he could think about it later. Xiao Zhan smiled wryly, but suddenly a pungent odor entered his body, causing him to frown. Looking down, he discovered a layer of sticky yellow gel-like substance attached to the surface of his body, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

  Xiao Zhan hastily took off his clothes, then snapped his fingers, and a stream of water appeared out of thin air to clean his body. This was a small water-based spell that Xiao Zhan had often used for bathing over the past eight years, and he no longer needed to chant; a simple finger snap would do the trick. After cleaning up, he put his clothes back on.

  The newly appeared War God has disappeared, and may have entered this door. The legendary "War God Record" might be behind the door. Looking at the large gate in front of him, Xiao Zhan walked in with curiosity.
