Chapter 2: Secret Recipe

  Chapter 2: Secret Recipe

  New Book Recommendation:

  "Hurray!"

  In the vast martial arts arena, a group of martial artists were practicing collectively under the rising sun. This was the Luoshui Sect, and these martial artists were the sect's outer disciples, with average cultivation but extremely high morale, just like the rising sun, giving off an aura of vitality.

  One hour later, the martial performance came to an end. All the disciples stopped and some of them left the arena one after another, while more people stayed behind to continue their practice. The Luoshui Sect was not a big sect, but it had a certain reputation in the surrounding areas within a hundred miles. From its founding to the present day, it had been passed down for over a thousand years. It was said that during its heyday, it was well-known throughout the country of He Nian Tian, and now it had just become somewhat declined.

  "Shen Cong, aren't you staying behind to continue your cultivation today?" A voice came from behind, and Shen Cong stopped in his tracks.

  "You go ahead, I'm going to the Wuji Pavilion today!" Shen Cong turned around, without a hint of the deep and terrifying aura he had a month ago. His appearance now was that of an ordinary person, just like before he was invaded by the Dark Night's Vital Spring. There wasn't even a trace of darkness in his breath.

  "Oh, it's also from the beginning of your practice, you've been practicing the most basic entry-level fist method. Now you can finally understand!" Qin Wu patted Shen Cong's shoulder heavily and said with some excitement, "Remember to choose a stronger one, so you won't be bullied by others again!"

  "I know!" A faint smile appeared on Shen Cong's face, and in a few steps, his figure disappeared into the martial arts arena. He walked at a constant speed, not fast, but winning in endurance. Since being struck by the young woman with the Five Elements True Thunder, Shen Cong had fallen into a coma. Shen Cong didn't know how long he had been in a coma, only that when he came to, he was lying on the riverbank.

  His injuries were so severe that he almost died, but he didn't die, and it was under the power of the Five Elements True Thunder. Even Shen Cong felt unexpected from himself. When Shen Cong realized the sudden appearance of a picture in his mind, he was shocked to the point where he couldn't speak. This picture was so unfamiliar, yet so familiar.

  In his past life, Shen Cong almost every day had to face such a scene, computers had become an essential item for modern people in the past. But now, this magical thing, actually appeared in his own mind? This made Shen Cong somewhat unable to react, after all, it was too strange.

  It's a very ordinary computer desktop, but it's also somewhat different from the computer desktops I've come into contact with before. On the left side of the desktop, there are many square blocks, which must all be software shortcuts, but now these shortcuts are all in a locked state and can't be clicked at all.

  Since it can't be used, then it's definitely not available. After Shen Cong's exploration, at this stage, only a few basic functions of the computer can be utilized by him. But just these few basic functions made Shen Cong overjoyed, and the most important point among them is to use the desktop wallpaper changing function to cover up Shen Cong's previous zombie-like characteristics, restoring his skin appearance before the mutation.

  The emergence of this ability gave Shen Cong, who had been at a dead end, a glimmer of hope. However, the strength of this skin-changing function was not fully understood by Shen Cong at that time. Therefore, after his injuries had almost healed, he secretly appeared in a village, and his appearance did not cause any problems, with the villagers only giving him some strange looks as an unfamiliar person.

  Ordinary people couldn't find out, Shen Cong's guts grew a bit bigger, so he ran to a slightly larger town and deliberately walked in front of some martial artists. It was through such small verifications and careful consideration that Shen Cong finally put his mind at ease about the computer's skin-changing function.

  Being alive is a kind of luck. Being able to live like an ordinary person, for Shen Cong, is even more difficult. But Shen Cong doesn't need the life of an ordinary person, he wants revenge, the most important thing in his life has been destroyed, so Shen Cong will destroy those people.

  Only by cultivating can one become stronger, so Shen Cong came to the Luoshui Sect, a sect that was once glorious but is now in a dormant state. With secrets in his heart, Shen Cong dared not be too ostentatious in his words and deeds, and after staying in the Luoshui Sect for a month, he confirmed that the warriors around him, as well as those Shifu and Shibo, could not discover his abnormality, and finally decided to start his own cultivation plan.

  The Luo Water Sect, although not a top-level sect in the Netherworld Empire today, was once prosperous and many of its traditions have been preserved. The Martial Arts Pavilion is one such place where various martial arts techniques are stored. It contains everything from low-level to high-level martial arts, but as an outer disciple, Shen Cong can only choose from mid-level or lower secret manuals.

  The dark energy inside his body had completely gone dormant, but the alienation from Shen's body had not disappeared. Instead, it had become even more thorough due to the energy condensing into a special energy at the heart position, combining with a drop of heart's blood. The current Shen was now no different from the zombie in his memories, except that he was slightly less afraid of sunlight.

  However, for the extremely powerful and masculine force, if it collides with the body, it will still produce severe consequences, and being directly extinguished is not a strange thing. The mutation has been very thorough, and change is no longer possible. Shen Cong can only accept it and, on this basis, make himself strong, strong enough to take revenge.

  However, the drawbacks of dark energy are still obvious. If you encounter a strong and upright energy in the future, it will have a strong restraining effect. What Shen Cong needs to do is to become stronger, allowing his own power to counter-restrain others. Water can extinguish fire, but when the fire is large enough, it can actually drown out the water.

  In the midst of a dense forest, a pavilion rose from the ground. Shen Cong looked up and took a step forward, walking in. The first floor of the Wuji Pavilion was very quiet, with not many people coming here. Most outer door disciples would come here to choose their martial arts skills as soon as they entered the Luoshui Sect, but someone like Shen Cong who had taken a whole month to arrive was absolutely an abnormal person.

  Shen Cong never approached others, nor did others come to approach him. They were all new disciples who didn't know each other and wouldn't try to curry favor with anyone, especially not someone as ordinary and background-less as Shen Cong.

  "Golden Fist, Breaking Empty Palm, Splitting Wave Hand... Shattering Stone Knife, Power Heaven Finger... Linked Cloud Sword, One-Line Sword Technique..."

  In the first floor of the Wuji Building, there are hundreds of martial arts manuals and secret books. These manuals are mostly mid-level or lower in terms of quality. The Luoshui Sect has stood for thousands of years, and its task of collecting martial arts manuals has never stopped. Although the number of high-level manuals collected is not many, the quantity of low-level martial arts like this one is still very sufficient. Moreover, because they have been deliberately collected, the martial arts manuals that can be placed here today all have some special features and are considered to be good quality among their peers.

  There are many secret books, and Shen Cong has plenty of time, so he is not in a hurry to choose one. He can wait for a month or even several hours more, as long as he chooses one that suits his mind and physical condition, it will be the best.

  When he saw the recipe he liked, Shen Cong would stop in his tracks, take down the recipe, and then flip through the brief introduction to see if it matched his own state. In a flash of time, six hours had passed, and all the disciples who were still on this level had disappeared, leaving only Shen Cong seriously searching, with an attitude that was still very serious, without any impatience or anxiety.

  Family members know family matters, and the physical changes have led to Shen Cong being able to learn only a few martial arts techniques. Or rather, there are not many martial arts techniques that can take effect on Shen Cong now. After all, these techniques were created with ordinary people as the standard. Although Shen Cong looks like a human now, in essence, he is actually a peculiar zombie. Many martial arts techniques cultivate true energy that not only has no benefit to Shen Cong but also has harmful effects.

  "The first floor of the Wugui Pavilion has 786 types of martial arts, and you've already seen nearly 500 of them. Is it that among so many martial arts techniques, there isn't one that suits your taste?" A hoarse voice sounded, and a figure appeared behind Shen Cong without him noticing.

  Shen Cong was slightly startled, turned around to look, but it was an unfamiliar old man. However, Shen Cong still quickly paid his respects and respectfully called out "Elder". Someone who can suddenly appear and disappear in the Wuji Pavilion is probably only the Guardian Elder of the Wuji Pavilion.

  "After choosing for so long, isn't there one you like?" Wu Changlao glanced at Shen Cong. As for this disciple in front of him, Wu Changlao had a strange feeling in his heart, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was. It was precisely because of this that Wu Changlao appeared, observing Shen Cong up close, but still unable to detect anything."

  "The disciple is just a bit difficult to choose." Shen Cong said frankly, it's indeed hard to choose, not only to conform to one's physical condition but also to have some power, it's really not easy to find.

  "This leg-breaking Plum Blossom is still usable, and if you cultivate it successfully, not only will your attacking power be decent, but even your physical skills will be greatly beneficial. And this Heart Method Secret Manual can be used to cultivate true energy, the effect is also good. Although cultivating to a high level doesn't have any special abilities, it's stable and suitable for you newly-entered disciples!"

  Shen Cong glanced over and slightly shook his head. If Shen Cong were an ordinary person now, choosing these two secret books wouldn't be bad, perhaps they would even be quite good. After all, selecting with the eyes of a senior would never go wrong. But unfortunately, Shen Cong isn't human now, at least not purely human. Practicing these two secret books would have no benefits whatsoever. Especially that "Zheng Qi Jing Xin Fa", the true energy within contains a hint of majestic righteousness, if Shen Cong were to really practice it, he would definitely end up in a terrible state, and it would be a miserable destruction from the inside out.

  Wu Lao's eyebrows slightly raised, in the past if he was willing to choose martial arts for these outer door disciples, those disciples would be grateful and shed tears of gratitude. Unexpectedly, this little kid in front of him actually refused without hesitation, causing Wu Lao's heart to feel some unusualness. This unusual feeling was not a good feeling, but rather some anger.
