Chapter 223: Chapter 137: Can’t Stand It Anymore, Deciding to Become the Human at the Top of the Food Chain!_2

"Good, the items required by Huang Xiu will be delivered to you by tomorrow at the latest." The other party’s tone carried confidence. After all, dealing in the Jianghu relies on interpersonal relationships, and this was but a trivial matter, easily discernable with some inquiries.

"Since that is the case, I shall await your good news." Huang Yanshan did not undermine his confidence, needing the other party to remain oblivious.

’It seems that the Heavenly Sect Demon Gate is also unaware of this annihilation event, and it is highly classified even within the imperial court.’

The likelihood of getting the information was extremely slim, and those who tried might even provoke resistance, stirring up excitement among both the Jianghu and the court.

The pursuit for the "Purple Profound Thunder Skill" on his body was not limited to the forces of Jianghu; the officials at court were also incredibly greedy. If immortality were feasible, why would those decrepit olds let such an opportunity slip away?

A high hall mirrors sorrow over white hair, the morning resembles black silk turning to snow by evening. Among these meat-eating officials, not one bore the appearance of youth.

To rise in ranks, one needed not only capability and achievements but also sufficient experience. Though there were a few exceptional promotions, they were pitifully rare. Not everyone could receive such an honor, and many more, like Huang Yanshan, wasted their lives in obscurity.

Yet, through the other party’s words, he aimed to disseminate this information and further muddy the waters.

The person, whose affiliation was unknown, hurried away, and many other watchers in the shadows left as well, naturally overhearing the conversation.

These people were cautious, not daring to get too close. They considered stealing the skills, an act despised in the Jianghu, but for the sake of immortality, what use was face?

Unfortunately, all failed. They could not discern how Huang Yanshan cultivated. The so-called "Purple Profound Thunder Skill" remained an enigma, as did the alleged strength of a hundred beasts and the Electric Current Propulsion. They couldn’t even witness the so-called Seven Strikes of Purple Thunder. To them, the Spring Thunder Strike was merely a simple chop, similar to chopping wood, yet it possessed immense power, which was indeed outrageous.

More importantly, he seemed to emanate an aura that instilled terror, akin to facing a formidable predator.

This temperament appeared to be a special transformation brought by the "Purple Profound Thunder Skill," though Huang Yanshan had yet to fully unleash this dreadful presence.

After the departure, Huang Yanshan chuckled deeply: ’Greed blinds the eyes, even with divine skills in hand, how much of the true transmission can one really obtain.’

In his eyes swirled the interlacing magnetic fields of the entire world; he was not cultivating skills, but his heart.

Techniques and True Qi were merely tools in his hands; during this period, he was also continuously adjusting and perfecting the "Purple Profound Thunder Skill."

As a scholar by imperial appointment, he had spent years on the sidelines, perusing countless books—from Martial Arts Techniques to diverse scholarly doctrines. While not an expert, he had thoroughly memorized them.

Thus, as he cultivated, he also pinpointed many issues, mainly that it wasn’t quite suitable for him, yet coincidentally he had the experience to confront them.

In his view, the technique focused too much on form and force, lacking spirit, no wonder Gu Shanhai had made him focus on Training Heart to supplement this spirit.

’This method is too fierce and overbearing; it’s somewhat unsuitable for me.’ Huang Yanshan sighed inwardly, not realizing Gu Shanhai had such a temperament.

He had contemplated modifying this trait but hesitated.

’After enduring for so many years, must I continue to endure?’

Each time he considered changing, his mind would flash back to an event, his sixty-odd years filled with rupture. How blissful his initial life was, the more desolate and resentful he became afterward.

It was precisely because of this rupture that he hesitated, feeling that Gu Shanhai did not want him to continue enduring, just like the inconspicuous Gu Shanhai who also stopped enduring.

Endurance becomes a habit over time.

"Sigh~" Huang Yanshan exhaled the stifled air in his chest, realizing one thing clearly: that was to no longer endure.

Whether it was his oppressive nature or his madness, if he endured any longer, even in death he would have no chance for revenge—the entirety of his life would just pass by.

At the moment when a thought penetrated his understanding, he felt as though some kind of shackle had been unlocked within him. The whole world seemed to expand before his eyes, and the current that had been at the level of ten thousand volts instantaneously surged to one hundred thousand volts.

"Electric Current Propulsion·Thunder Blade·Sky-Spinning Thunder!"

In the next instant, the electrical current in his hand transformed into a domineering Thunder Blade, electricity flashing in all directions, as he swung the blade creating a gale that carried the air and wrapped with thunder.

Centered around the yard where he stood, it spread outward, lightning rampage, and all those who were secretly watching changed their expressions immediately and jumped out from their hiding places, desperately distancing themselves from this Sky-Spinning Thunder technique.

Those who ran fast were alright, but those who moved slowly were affected. If there were people with horizontal training on their bodies or those who possessed robust True Qi, they could still save their lives, but anyone slightly inferior was swallowed by the lightning.

Seeing this, everyone felt a lingering fear, even the Heavenly Sect Master and the Demon Sect Leader were unable to release True Qi on such a grand scale. But Huang Yanshan, who had only been practicing martial arts for just over a month, had such ability, which was enough to see the mystery of "Purple Profound Thunder Skill." Above this, there was also the "Heavenly Gang Child Skill" cultivated by Master Lu, that technique might be even more powerful and oppressive.

"Cowardly wretches, hiding in shadows, hmph." Huang Yanshan looked disdainful. Before, he had allowed it because he was enduring, but now he was no longer enduring—there was no need to bother with such people.

After showing off, he felt a bit overwhelmed, the consumption was a bit too much.

Especially since this move, Sky-Spinning Thunder, was not the "Seven Strikes of Purple Thunder" taught to him by Gu Shanhai but a completely new move he had realized just now through the enhancement of the Thunder Blade, both in terms of power and range, far outstripped the previous one.

Once he could bring his Electric Current Propulsion up to five hundred thousand volts, he would be able to use this move easily, and even continuously improve its power.

At that moment, he was also contemplating how to complete the Thunder Blade version of Spring Thunder Annihilation.

"What a pity for this yard; well, let’s not bother repairing it."

He had just been thinking about taking action but had forgotten about this matter. Now, he didn’t care much about these things anymore, so he let things take their course.

"Young heart, young mindset; this Martial Arts True Immortal is not invincible!" Huang Yanshan had never had such a thought before, but now he did.

Which meant he had gotten arrogant, and quite significantly so.

"With the resurgence of spiritual energy in the world, merely improving the stage of Electric Current Propulsion isn’t very useful, not even five hundred thousand volts of Electric Current Propulsion can compare to the first Magnitude of Magnetic Field Rotation."

"For my uncle, he could accelerate the friction of cells through willpower to generate True Qi and produce a Magnetic Field Rotation, but for me, it’s not practicing techniques, not practicing moves, what I need is Training Heart."

"So, as long as I sharpen my Thunder Blade a bit more, the mastery will come naturally, and the technique will become clear."

Sharpening the blade is sharpening the heart.

"So, I need a big enough whetstone."

His lips curled into a somewhat fierce smile. What in this world could be a better whetstone for him than this?

With a swing of the Thunder Blade, he hung it at his waist. When he stepped out of the Huang family residence, there was only one thought in his mind—that was to damn the reticence; he wanted to become the most terrifying predator at the top of the food chain.

The bustling street suddenly quieted down in an instant, as everyone seemed to see a ferocious beast intent on devouring humans awaken.

That sense of tremor surged from the soles of their feet to their foreheads, spreading the fear in their hearts.

After coming to their senses, the whole street plunged into chaos, everyone fled in fear, and even some of the Jianghu people could not withstand this aura.

"People?" Huang Yanshan calmly watched the chaos because it did not belong to him, just as when his family had been annihilated, the despair and hatred did not belong to them either.
