Chapter 433: Sect Prison

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Emei Sect’s Divine Yang Skill was not written in paper form and passed down through the generations, but was instead verbally shared from master to student.

Happy could be considered to have lucked out. After all, since he had Mistress Annihilation’s jade ring, he obtained Leader Hui Xin’s acknowledgement. On top of that, his Comprehension was high enough for Leader Hui Xin to verbally teach him Emei Sect’s Divine Yang Skill.

“Learned Emei Sect’s Divine Yang Skill!”

[Emei Sect’s Divine Yang Skill.

[One part of Nine Yang Divine Skill. It is a qi cultivation technique that provides qi of the highest purity and greatest degree. However, the incomplete Nine Yang Skill will only increase qi recovery speed as well as your resistance toward soft palm strikes.

[If you obtain the incantations of the second page of Nine Yang Skill, you can increase the effects of Nine Yang Skill! Wudang Sect’s Nine Yang Skill and Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill can increase qi recovery speed by a large degree. They will also increase your resistance to soft qi as well as freezing qi.

[If you gather all three pages of the incantations for Nine Yang Skill, you will be able to understand the full Nine Yang Divine Skill!

[On the day you master this divine skill, your qi will be endless, and you’ll have no need to be afraid of soft qi that has freezing attributes. At the same time, your innate attributes will increase by a lot. Your defense will also increase exponentially. You will improve much faster when you practice martial arts, and you will also need a lot less effort to master them.]

The notification from the system appeared when Happy learned the martial art, and he stood stunned for a long time before recovering. He sucked in a deep breath, then respectfully bowed to Hui Xin.

“Thank you for your generous act of giving me this martial art, Mistress Hui Xin!”

“This is what you deserve.” Leader Hui Xin regarded him with a gentle look. “Nine Yang Skill is a martial art that only the best disciples from Emei Sect can practice. Even though we’ve never passed it to outsiders before, I believe that our sect teacher will agree with my actions.”

“I will definitely not let you down, mistress. I will do my absolute best to save the heroes of the six sects.”

Happy suddenly felt that all of the hesitation and uneasiness that had been accumulating in his heart disappeared.

Nine Yang Divine Skill was an amazing skill that brought Shaolin Temple, Wudang Sect, and Emei Sect to the height of their prosperity. That was enough to show just how outstanding it was. Once anyone finished practicing Nine Yang Divine Skill, they could stand at the top of the world of martial artists and become a supreme martial artist like Zhang Wuji.

It was much stronger than Shifting Stars!

Happy felt that the long wait for it was worth it.

Mistress Hui Xin was very pleased with Happy’s reaction and called out the name of Buddha in relief.

“With you saying that, I feel at ease. If you have any questions, you can ask me. I do have some understanding in regards to Nine Yang Skill.”

Once she finished speaking, she picked up the water bucket again and walked steadily into a small temple not too far away.

Happy followed behind her and stepped into Intelligent Heart Temple without turning back.

No one would have thought that the top-ranked player on the Famous People Rank, Happy, would stay for more than half a month in a nameless temple after he was swept into the quest provided by the six great sects.

*****

It has to be said that Happy missed many exciting events during that half a month!

Once the quest for the final battle at Light Summit ended, more story-related quests appeared. During the battle in which Shaolin Temple was surrounded and slaughtered, the players received the quest to save the eminent monks of Shaolin Temple.

Because of it, Shaolin Temple, which had not attracted public attention during the early stages of World of Martial Arts, finally gained the chance to make a name for itself. Vajra Prajñā Palm, Flower-pinching Finger, One Reed to Cross the River, and other ultimate techniques from Shaolin Temple were used by countless Shaolin Temple disciples at the moment Shaolin Temple was in danger.

Xie Xun and Golden Flower Granny appeared in the world of martial artists as well.

The bloodshed surrounding Dragon Saber rose in the gaming community.

Yuan Dynasty soldiers began to appear everywhere in the game and attacked sects of various sizes. That resulted in clan and sect quests starting to gush out from everywhere.

However, those were just some of the rather major events in the game.

After lying dormant for a period of time, Towering Palace finally began to build branches in regions that were close to the sea. With Shangguan Lian, Hai Dongqing, and other elites as their vanguard, they swiftly took up a rather large territory by setting up more than twenty branches.

They finished setting up within a short period of time and obtained new members, equipment, and resource points in one go. They even did so at a faster, smoother, and more comprehensive manner than Class One Hall.

Chivalry Sect’s actions were even grander!

Ever since they obtained Shennongjia as a stable and rich resource point, they came to understand the importance of using resources with the refinement system, and they came to place a lot more value in resource points.

They seized the chance of the battle at Light Summit to set their sights on places further away instead of sending any of their elites to the quest. They built more than thirty branches in the cities to the south, which spread them out everywhere. Those branches swiftly worked together to gain a stable footing and showed signs that they were about to become the leader of Jiangnan!

In comparison, Cold Moon Palace’s Lu Mingyue acted with a much lower profile.

Perhaps it was because he knew that there were not many great players to guard Cold Moon Palace, he did build more branches. Instead, right under the people’s eyes, he spent millions of taels of silver and shifted his headquarters from the city to an island in Changjiang. He also bought more than one hundred ships and used the many pirate nests in the area as well as the high-level map Raging Aquatic Dragon Island as training spots. He thus began to develop Cold Moon Palace by isolating himself in a corner because the situation forced him to do so.

More powerful players appeared in a continuous stream within the game.

Orochimaru’s name gradually grew more infamous. He managed to gain the inheritance of Xuanming Elders from somewhere, and he practiced Profound Abyss Divine Palm, which was a sinister and ruthless martial art of the western region. He secured his place as the top evil player, and not even Lu Mingyue could shake his position.

However, Mu Clan also rose to fame during this period of time.

It had a forbidden area, which was a huge fenced area whose bars were made of refined steel that was as thick as a baby’s forearm. The prison was made of two orderly rows, and they isolated two rows of prisoners. Each prisoner was detained in their own cell, and they could not communicate with each other.

The cells contained powerful and angry NPCs, and some of them were filled with strong gusts of wind. The light from swords there was very glaring since people were fighting in there.

Ever since the prison was built, some of the higher ups of Mu Clan never left Baokang to train. Every day, it would be someone’s turn to enter the prison and fight against the NPCs in the headquarters.

At the end of the cell row was a man in torn rags that signaled him being a Beggar’s Sect disciple. He was fighting furiously against Thunderous Battle. The Beggar’s Sect disciple used his palms to block Thunderous Battle’s sword techniques, which gained him the upper hand.

However, Thunderous Battle had third-echelon Golden Armor Set along with a Mystical Realm high-tier body fortification technique. His defense was astonishing, and with the endless supply of Dew Pills to replenish his stamina and energy, he fought to his heart’s content for two hours. Due to it, the increase of his martial arts was much faster than when he trained outside.

“Haha… It feels good!”

The clan prison was different from the prisons built by Embroidered Uniform Guards and the Western and Eastern Depots.

Those prisons had different prisoners of different strengths and variety that were captured to be brought to justice. The players who were part of the imperial court could challenge prisoners of different power levels as long as they had enough experience and contribution to the imperial court. There was an ample supply of prisoners at any moment they liked.

The clan prison was not like that.

There was no way for the clan prison to generate their own prisoners, which was why they could only “capture” heavily injured martial artists from outside, and those martial artists could not be players.

On the way to the clan prison, the prisoners had to be in a state where they could not fight back, but they could not be allowed to be killed by other players. That was why Mu Clan had to use the fabled Sweat-concealing Sleeping Drug or use ingenious Acupointer attacks.

However, with Mu Clan’s strength, it was incredibly easy for them to capture prisoners and lock them up in the clan prison while they were in Baokang. They were not affected by other players at all.

The great fighters they caught were all Moksha Realm fighters or fighters at the peak of Life and Death Realm, which Thunderous Battle had gathered by using all sorts of methods. His goal was to have a way for the higher-ups of Mu Clan to train in the headquarters and still be able to improve at an extraordinary speed.

It was proof that his idea of seeking out Happy’s opinion in the beginning was correct. They could use the shops in the market to put their Medicine Creation Hall, Refinement Hall, and other such halls into operation, but the clan prison was the real tool that could allow them to improve by leaps and bounds!

“Clan master!”

At that moment, a Mu Clan disciple charged in. Something seemed to have happened.

Thunderous Battle resolutely stopped attacking and retreated.

The Beggar’s Sect disciple stopped as well, but he seemed to be reluctant to do so. The disciples were not trapped inside until their deaths. Instead, they had an agreement with Mu Clan. They only needed to be detained for a period of time, for which Mu Clan paid them ten thousand taels of silver or even a few ten thousand taels of silver every day.

“Did someone come to challenge us again?”

Thunderous Battle opened the cell and walked outside.
