Chapter 137
The Six Arts Hand.
The Heavenly Demon Hand, which is the mother of the Six Arts Hand, is a high-level martial art that encompasses the ultimate techniques of the Manifest Demon True Art.
The Demonic Divine Palm is the most powerful palm technique of the Heavenly Demon Hand, and as the palm force was displayed, Jiang Ziya's sleeves fluttered, and the ferry boat began to shake as if it would capsize at any moment.
Swoosh!
A violent wind suddenly raged around the boat. The water current that was pushed by it created small waves.
Crack! Thud!
As the Rain Sound Spear's ultimate technique, which had been extended with great spirit, clashed with the Demonic Divine Palm, the wood that formed the spear shaft was torn like paper and flew in all directions.
"Gah!"
The Rain Sound Spear, startled by the powerful palm force that was suddenly rushing in, rotated his spear and immediately twisted his body greatly.
Although the broken spear dangled and tried to protect the Rain Sound Spear's surroundings, it was not enough to completely block the power of the palm force.
Splash!
The Rain Sound Spear also flew away and fell into the river.
Bang!
As the Rain Sound Spear fell into the river, the White Bone Collector, who was completely soaked, kicked the river water as if he were repelling it and soared into the sky.
"You brat!"
The White Bone Collector, who was very angry, flew his hair, which was tangled like seaweed, and threw his chain sickle at Jiang Ziya.
The Six Arts and Three Strategies.
The chapter of the Middle Strategy.
The Six Arts Imperial Divine Step.
At the chain sickle that was aiming for him again, Jiang Ziya lightly stepped on the ferry boat and floated up to the sky, and then the boat shook greatly, and a water column shot up from within it.
Jiang Ziya, who had confirmed that the boat was completely shattered, lightly stepped on the chain sickle that had been stuck in the place where he had been standing.
Crack!
With the sound of something breaking, Jiang Ziya's ferry boat began to scream.
Jiang Ziya stood on one foot on the sickle whose end was stuck in the boat. Although the White Bone Collector, who had landed on his boat, tried to pull it with all his might, the chain sickle did not budge.
Jiang Ziya, in that state, still holding the White Bone Collector's boat, which was caught on the fishing line, with the other hand, swung Tonglin and pulled it.
Swoosh!
"You, you bastard! Let go of this!"
The White Bone Collector, in order not to fall from the ferry boat that was being pulled towards Jiang Ziya again, grabbed the side of the boat with the other hand that was not holding the chain.
"If you wish."
As the ferry boat was pulled back to the vicinity of his sinking boat, Jiang Ziya lifted the foot that had been stepping on the sickle.
The White Bone Collector, who had been pulling the chain sickle with all his might, staggered at the repulsive force and lost his balance for a moment.
Thump!
"Gah!"
Jiang Ziya flew his body to the ferry boat that the White Bone Collector was on in one go and kicked his chest, whose balance had been broken.
The White Bone Collector, holding the chain sickle, his figure floated up with a pained and distorted expression, and he fell into the river again.
Splash!
"Since you're not interested in the competition anyway, I'll borrow the boat."
Jiang Ziya, after retrieving the Tonglin that was on the boat, threw a word.
Bang!
But at the murderous intent he felt from under the boat, Jiang Ziya jumped up again without even waiting for an answer.
From the bottom of the ferry boat that Jiang Ziya had moved to, a spear blade shot up, and the boat was split in half and exploded.
Jiang Ziya, in the air, swung Tonglin and immediately pulled the ferry boat that the Rain Sound Spear had been on.
And Jiang Ziya, who had lightly landed on it, turned his eyes. He saw the Rain Sound Spear, who had broken the boat and had risen up, stepping on the wreckage of the broken ferry boat, and then, with his spear shaft half broken and bent, rotating his spear and jumping at him.
"At this rate, I'll get soaked too."
Jiang Ziya swung Tonglin greatly and extended the fishing line made of silkworm thread towards the Rain Sound Spear.
As the energy of the Six Arts and Three Strategies was imbued, a blue light lingered on the silkworm thread. With the sound of cutting the wind, the silkworm thread flew towards the Rain Sound Spear's spear.
Swoosh! Hiss!
As the fishing line of Tonglin was wrapped around the Rain Sound Spear's spear blade, sparks flew, and a grating noise echoed.
The Rain Sound Spear, at the heavy force he felt from Jiang Ziya's Tonglin, stepped on the wreckage of the ferry boat scattered in the river and retreated in one go, and then, as if he were shocked to see his beloved spear, whose blade had been completely ground down, he staggered and then fell into the river again.
"This won't do."
Since the Rain Sound Spear had gone back into the water, it was now the White Bone Collector's turn to appear.
If he did not cut off the breath of the two or subdue them in one go now, it was a distant matter to protect the ferry boat from the White Bone Collector's attack.
Jiang Ziya hurriedly took out the paper with the character 'Zhen' that he had used before coming here from his bosom and attached it to Tonglin in one go.
Although a lot of time had passed and its power had weakened, if he were to blow his internal energy into it in one go, he would be able to exert a great power for a moment.
Jiang Ziya, as he was, plunged Tonglin into the river and then poured his internal energy into it in one go.
Flash!
For a moment, a blue light flashed on Tonglin, and then, as if goosebumps had appeared on the water, countless small water droplets began to splash up. Soon, the area around the ferry boat that Jiang Ziya was on shook greatly once, and then, as if the commotion just before had been a lie, a silence came to the surroundings.
And around the ferry boat, bubbles rose, and dozens and hundreds of fish with their white bellies revealed began to float up to the surface one by one.
Splash!
It was not only the fish that had floated up.
The backs of the heads of the Rain Sound Spear and the White Bone Collector, who had been diving in the river, also floated up to the surface of the river.
Although masters protected their bodies with their internal energy, they could not breathe in the water, and unless they had learned a powerful water art, it was very difficult to operate their internal energy method.
In the end, the two, who had received the powerful lightning power without any defense, had lost their consciousness and had become like the fish.
"Now what should I do with this..."
Jiang Ziya looked at them and the fish on the river with a troubled expression.
If he left the fish as they were, it would be a useless killing, so it was right to take them, but even if he had subdued the two masters of the Demonic Cult like this, there was no guarantee that they would not attack him again when they came to their senses.
Moreover, if he were to be attacked in a situation where Xi Xichang was also with him, it would not be just Jiang Ziya's danger.
If he was not going to kill them in this place, he needed to appease them and to send them back.
Jiang Ziya, with a troubled expression, gathered them and the floated fish together.
Although the ferry boat seemed precarious as if it had exceeded its weight, it did not seem to have much trouble in moving forward.
Jiang Ziya, driving the ferry boat as it was, did not go back to the Fish Dragon Festival venue but turned the direction to find a place to dock the boat nearby.
Jiang Ziya, who had found a secluded place, avoiding people's eyes, pulled down the White Bone Collector and the Rain Sound Spear.
And after taking out the rope in the boat, tying the two, and subduing their blood points, he gathered firewood and started a small bonfire with a technique.
Swoosh!
As the flames rose, a warm air began to spread around.
Among the two pale people, the one who came to his senses first was the younger White Bone Collector.
"Ugh... ugh... ugh, ugh!"
As soon as the White Bone Collector came to his senses, without even having time to grasp the situation, he lowered his head at the feeling of nausea that was rising up his throat.
The White Bone Collector, who had vomited out the river water that had filled his lungs and stomach endlessly, held on to his dizzy mind and opened his eyes wide.
"You, you bastard!"
At some point, Jiang Ziya was looking at him with a fire lit on the firewood.
Not only was his whole body tied up with a rope, but his blood points were also subdued, so he could not move a muscle.
Cough!
He hurriedly turned his head and saw that the Rain Sound Spear, who had been unconscious next to him, had also come to his senses and was vomiting water and was struggling to open his two eyes.
"Have you two come to your senses?"
"If you're going to kill me, kill me now. What is this!"
The White Bone Collector, ashamed of having been humiliated by a young brat, trembled his face.
When he had heard the story that the Black and White Twin Demons had been subdued, he had expected that they had been defeated by Yang Jian's hand and had ignored the brat named Jiang Ziya, who had been with him.
Moreover, this misjudgment was also due to the fact that the White Demon, who had returned alive, had intentionally downplayed Jiang Ziya's martial prowess, saying that both of them had been defeated by Yang Jian.
The Demon General Manager, who had heard the report, had even considered the possibility that the White Demon had lied and had sent not only the White Bone Collector but also the Rain Sound Spear.
Although the White Bone Collector had not liked the Demon General Manager, saying that he was being too cautious, now that he saw it, wasn't it even more than the Demon General Manager had expected?
"Why should I kill you two?"
"You bastard! Are you mocking us?"
Jiang Ziya turned his gaze from the White Bone Collector, who was shouting vigorously, to the Rain Sound Spear, who was looking at him calmly.
As the Rain Sound Spear met Jiang Ziya's eyes, he turned his gaze and looked at the Tonglin that was placed next to Jiang Ziya.
"The line of that fishing rod... if it's a treasure that can withstand internal energy and cut iron, there is only one in the martial world of this era."
The Rain Sound Spear recalled the words that Jiang Ziya had said to them when he had first met him.
"The Heavenly Silkworm Thread."
The Heavenly Silkworm Thread was the thread of the heavenly silkworm, a spiritual creature of the world, and its strength was as hard as steel, and its sharpness was like a sword.
Although it was a treasure that was second to none in the martial world, there was only one person in the world who could handle it properly.
"That's ridiculous!"
The White Bone Collector, startled by the Rain Sound Spear's one word of the Heavenly Silkworm Thread, looked at Jiang Ziya and Tonglin alternately.
What kind of crazy person in the world would make a fishing line with the Heavenly Silkworm Thread, which was hard to buy even with a billion gold?
Moreover, since there were only a handful of people in the martial world who possessed the Heavenly Silkworm Thread, all of their owners were great powers or famous masters or organizations.
"Is the line of the fishing rod really the Heavenly Silkworm Thread?"
At the Rain Sound Spear's question, which was asking for confirmation, Jiang Ziya nodded his head.
"Then was what you said true?"
"I know it's hard to believe, but this fishing rod was also made by my master."
"Ah!"
The Rain Sound Spear let out a short sigh at Jiang Ziya's answer.
Although they had exchanged a short hand, the mystery of the high-level martial art he had felt from Jiang Ziya's one palm.
"So I have witnessed the Heavenly Demon Hand of the number one demonic divine art, the Manifest Demon True Art!"
At the Rain Sound Spear's sigh, the White Bone Collector moved his lips with a dumbfounded expression.
"That's... that's ridiculous..."
It had already been decades since the previous leader of the cult, the Heavenly Demon, the Tongtian Cult Master, had disappeared.
But how could he believe that this scholar, who had fallen from the sky, was a disciple of the Heavenly Demon?
"Where... is he?"
"That's a little difficult to say. Just know that he is well."
It was a taboo to reveal anything about the Hermit's Valley to the outside world.
The Rain Sound Spear nodded his head as if he understood Jiang Ziya's answer.
In any case, the news that a disciple of the Heavenly Demon had appeared would surely cause a great stir not only in the Demonic Cult but also in the Martial Arts Alliance, no, in the entire martial world.
"I... can't believe it."
But the White Bone Collector was still looking at Jiang Ziya with a suspicious gaze.
"Is there anyone else in the world who can handle the Heavenly Silkworm Thread like this? The Four Treasure Swords of the Heavenly Demon are treasures made of the Heavenly Silkworm Thread. There is no room for doubt that he would have given the Heavenly Silkworm Thread to his disciple."
The Rain Sound Spear seemed to completely believe Jiang Ziya's words.
"If he is a disciple of the Heavenly Demon, how would you explain the fact that he fought against the Black and White Twin Demons and helped Yang Jian?"
However, the White Bone Collector did not easily submit.
"That's... I didn't know that they were from the Xuan Cult."
"Then why didn't you reveal yourself?"
"In the first place, they rushed at me as if to kill me and left, so there was no way to explain. Besides, if I had gone around saying that I was a disciple of the Heavenly Demon, would I have been able to survive?"
At Jiang Ziya's answer, the White Bone Collector could not answer and moved his lips.
