"Me too!"
The second woman stood up, followed by the third and fourth women. Before long, the last of the eight women also stood up.
Gathering the ropes, chains, and various items that had been used to tie them up, they shifted their gazes to the single man left alive.
"You may play with him to your heart's content, but don't let him die too quickly."
Su Lang nodded in satisfaction before turning around and leaving the room.
After he walked past the remains of the door around the corner outside the room, a loud shriek that sounded like a pig being slaughtered echoed through the halls.
"How wonderful of a retribution!"
Su Lang revealed a slight smile before making his way to the residential area of the stronghold.
Since the stronghold was not that big, Su Lang arrived at his destination within a few minutes.
While the gate to the residential area may be tightly shut, it did not pose any issues for Su Lang. After all, he had mastered the skill of lockpicking during his days as an assassin.
Not long after, Su Lang successfully opened the gate and went in.
"Who is it?"
A woman's voice suddenly sounded from inside the room.
At that moment, a woman dressed in blue appeared before Su Lang.
The woman seemed to be an Initial Body Tempering cultivator. Although she had a pretty good appearance, it was unfortunately tarnished by the bruises on her face. With a single glance, Su Lang noticed the fear lingering in her eyes.
When she noticed that the person who came in did not have a tattoo on his earlobe, a glimmer of hope flashed through her eyes.
"Are you one of the women who was abducted?"
Su Lang looked at the woman dressed in blue in front of him and asked.
The woman in blue asked excitedly, "Yes, but who are you? How did you get in here? Can you take me away?"
"I will soon be leaving this place. Of course, you will also be able to. However, I still have a few things I need to do."
Su Lang asked with a gentle smile, "Have you heard anything about a vault or safe? The one where the guards keep their gold and silver coins."
"Yes, I have! In fact, I even know the password for the safe. One of the guards unconsciously muttered it after getting drunk."
As the glimmer of hope turned into a shining light, the woman in blue exclaimed with joy before repeatedly nodding her head.
"Do you still remember the password? If so, that's great. Quickly bring me there."
Su Lang was naturally astonished by this unexpected outcome. Since he had never touched a safe in this era before, he did not have the confidence to open it. Thus, it would save him a lot of trouble if he had the password.
"The safe is over here. The password is...."
As she spoke, the woman in blue quickly turned around and led the way.
After following her for a few seconds, Su Lang noticed the safe the size of a wardrobe before him. Judging from the design, it didn't seem to be easy to break into with sheer force.
Su Lang entered the password and opened the safe with a clang. Immediately, he was blinded by flashes of golden and silver light.
The woman in blue who was standing at the side also stared blankly at the wonderful sight. The amount of gold coins was simply beyond her imagination.
"This is great! This is great!"
Immersing himself in the piles of gold and silver coins in front of him, Su Lang burst into a fit of laughter as he exclaimed, "I wonder if this would be enough to upgrade the system!"
Immediately after, Su Lang grabbed a handful of gold coins and deposited them into the system.
In the mysterious black space, the number behind the gold coin icon instantly shot up to 26!
Watching the gold coins disappear into Su Lang's hands, the woman in blue was dumbfounded.
To be able to store items out of thin air meant that one possessed a Ring of Space. However, a Ring of Space could only be possessed by the martial cultivators of the Martial General Realm!
For someone in the Body Tempering Realm to possess such a luxurious item, how terrifying must that person's background be?
Amidst her understanding, the woman in blue began gazing at Su Lang with utmost respect.
Although Su Lang did not know why the woman in blue was staring at him in such a manner, he continued to laugh mischievously as he stored everything into the storage of the system.
After plundering everything from the safe, the number behind the gold cold icon skyrocketed to 1568!
"I have more than 1000 gold coins! Hahahaha!"
Clenching his fists in excitement, Su Lang stretched his arms into the air and shouted loudly, "System, upgrade the One-Click Cultivation Function!"
CHAPTER 21 - ACTIVATING THE SECOND FUNCTION!
[Ding! Consuming 1000 gold coins, One-Click Cultivation Function increased to level 3, Cultivation speed increased to 4 times the basic speed!]
[Ding! Host, congratulations on unlocking the second function of the system. You only need 10 gold coins to activate its functions.]
The two consecutive system notifications surprised Su Lang so much that he almost flew up into the air!
The notification that shocked him the most was the second one regarding the second function of the system. Since the first function was already so abnormal. How much more ridiculous could the second one be?
"System, activate the second function!"
Without any hesitation, Su Lang chose to activate the second function.
[Ding! Consuming 10 gold coins to activate the Heart of Martial Arts. Activating the One-Click Martial Arts Function.]
[Ding! Congratulations on activating the second function of the system. You have obtained the additional skill, "Ten Thousand Spell Forge", which allows you to cultivate every single martial art in existence.]
Just as the system notification disappeared, Su Lang felt a jolt in his head as the information regarding the One-Click Martial Arts Function was suddenly forced into his mind.
At the same time, another small white figure suddenly appeared in the mysterious black space within his mind.
Although the small white figure was still a copy of Su Lang, it was standing on its feet instead of sitting down.
"Hahahaha!"
Looking at the second small white figure in the mysterious black space of his mind, Su Lang could not help but burst into gales of laughter.
According to the new information in his mind, the One-Click Martial Arts Function allowed Su Lang to automatically practice any martial art techniques he obtained in his hands.
In this era, cultivation techniques were separated into two parts.
The first part focused solely on raising one's cultivation realm through the use of the Infinite Heart Sutra.
The second part involved learning and practicing other martial techniques such as offensive techniques, defensive techniques, and other types of martial arts.
These martial techniques are further divided into three main categories. While the Bone Forging Cultivation Techniques focused on improved one's physical body, the Weapon Cultivation Techniques mainly increase one's proficiency with their weapon of choice. Furthermore, the Attribute Cultivation Techniques enable its users to control all kinds of attribute energy.
Aside from the types of martial techniques, they are also divided into several ranks, which included the low, intermediate, high, and advanced ranks.
It was rumored that there were even more profound martial techniques surpassing the advanced rank.
In fact, according to Su Lang's current understanding, one's cultivation realm can be used to estimate the ranks of their martial techniques. Similarly, their techniques can be used to differentiate between each martial cultivator's fighting style.
While the first part of cultivation techniques relied on one's innate talent, the second part will only improved depending on how much time and effort they put into their training.
&nbs
p; Furthermore, one would require sufficient knowledge about the specific martial techniques in order to practice those techniques in the first place.
The higher one's comprehension of the martial technique, the less amount of time and effort they would have to put into learning it. On the other hand, if one had trouble comprehending the martial technique, they would have a spend a large amount of time and effort to learn the martial technique.
Regardless of comprehension ability, every martial cultivator would have to make an effort to learn those martial techniques.
Putting learning the martial techniques aside, getting your hands on one of those techniques would be extremely difficult due to their price. Even low-rank martial techniques were so expensive that it would leave one speechless. It was certainly not something that any ordinary person could afford.
Even the wealthy young masters would choose to neglect to learn those martial techniques during their time in the Body Tempering Realm.
After all, raising one's cultivation realm was far more beneficial to someone in the Body Tempering Realm. Only after breaking through to the Mortal Realm would one even think of learning a martial technique.
Originally, Su Lang also planned to learn martial techniques only after advancing to the Mortal Realm.
However, things were different now. With the One-Click Martial Arts Function, Su Lang could not automatically practice martial techniques at any time and at any place without stopping.
"System, how do I activate the One-Click Martial Arts Function?"
Looking at the motionless small white figure, Su Lang suddenly had the urge to do something about it as soon as possible.
[The Host will need to possess a cultivation technique in order to activate the One-Click Martial Arts Function.]
[The One-Click Martial Arts Function is currently level 1. Thus, the training speed will remain normal. Even after you decide to train a certain martial technique, you can still replace it if you wish to do so.]
[The Host had been detected to possess the "Origin Body Forging Technique." Does the host want to learn it?]
Su Lang was greatly taken aback. After all, he did not have a single impression of the "Origin Body Forging Technique" whatsoever.
After rummaging through his memories for a moment, however, he managed to recall a few things about the technique.
According to the original host's memories, this was the most basic Body Forging Cultivation Technique. Most Standard Martial Cultivators, including his parents, were required to learn it.
Since his previous self was unable to cultivate, he naturally could not practice it. In the end, he could only helplessly throw it to the back of his mind.
"System, immediately learn the technique!"
Su Lang's mouth curled into a big smile.
[Ding! Learning the "Origin Body Forging Technique." One-Click Martial Arts Function had been activated!]
In an instant, the second small white figure in his mind began moving.
It continuously performed all kinds of body forging movements from the Origin Body Forging Technique. Although it had just begun learning the technique, there wasn't a single flaw in its movements.
At the same time, Su Lang noticed a slight warmth flowing steadily in his limbs and bones.
Although this warm current was almost indiscernible, it gradually accumulated over time. In just a few short breaths, Su Lang realized that his body had grown a little stronger than before.
CHAPTER 22 - THE RIDICULOUS ONE-CLICK MARTIAL ARTS FUNCTION
"This training speed is definitely on the level of a monstrous genius!"
Su Lang suddenly widened his eyes filled with shock and ecstasy.
One should not look down at the Origin Body Forging Technique for being a beginner martial technique.
In fact, it was a Body Forging Cultivation Technique that had undergone many changes over the past thousand years. Although it may be known as a basic technique, it was nevertheless not easy to practice. For most martial cultivators, this would be the first martial technique they would learn. Thus, it would naturally come out as a great challenge for them.
The mastery level of the cultivation method was divided into four main states: entry, middle, expert, and profound state.
Reaching the profound state meant that one had already fully mastered the martial technique and could freely use it.
Although the Origin Body Forging Technique may be a basic martial technique, an ordinary cultivator would still need to put a large amount of time and effort into practicing the technique.
For example, the parents of the original host had to train diligently every day for over a month before they managed to reach the entry stage of the technique.
On the other hand, the One-Click Martial Arts Function had already attained massive results despite only being activated for a few breaths. This showed just how ridiculous the function was.
"This function is way too overpowered!"
Su Lang trembled in pure excitement as he thought to himself, "Since this function is only level 1, I will be able to practice the martial technique even faster after I upgrade the function!"
"Furthermore, according to the system prompt, I will be able to cultivate multiple techniques at the same time after upgrading it."
"At that time, I will have learned so many martial techniques that no one will be able to suppress me. Just thinking about the potential fills me with utmost delight."
One must understand that martial techniques are extremely difficult to learn. For a normal martial cultivator, successfully cultivating two or three martial techniques to the expert stage would already be considered a great achievement.
But what about Su Lang?
With such an abnormal training speed, he would not be satisfied even if he mastered a dozen or so techniques.
Most importantly, while other people needed to put in countless amounts of their effort to practice martial arts, Su Lang could simply sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor. He must be the most fortunate person in this world.
At this time, Su Lang licked his lips and asked excitedly, "System, how much does it cost to upgrade the One-Click Martial Arts Function?"
Since the One-Click Martial Arts Function was such an overpowered ability, how could he forget about upgrading it?
[The cost for upgrading the One-Click Martial Arts Function is similar to that of the One-Click Cultivation Function.]
[Upgrading the function to level 2 requires 100 gold coins. The speed at which the martial technique is learned will be 2 times the base speed.]
[Upgrading the function to level 3 requires 1000 gold coins. The speed at which the martial technique is learned will be 3 times the base speed.]
[Upgrading the function to level 4 requires 10000 gold coins. The speed at which the martial technique is learned will be 4 times the base speed.]
[When the One-Click Martial Arts Function reaches level 3, the Host will be able to unlock the activation rights to the third function of the system.]
"Hell yeah! System, you're freaking awesome!"
As the series of system notifications came to an end, Su Lang's eyes widened in excitement.
Since he only needed 100 gold coins to upgrade the One-Click Martial Arts Function to level 2, he could easily afford to do so as he had 568 gold coins left over from the previous upgrade.
Even after he upgrades the function, he would still have 468 gold coins remaining, nearly half of 100 gold coins. At this point, the activation of the third function of the system was almost right in front of his eyes.
"Quick, System, upgrade the One-Click Martial Arts Function!"
Su Lang did not hesitate and immediately gave the order to upgrade.
[Ding! Consuming 100 gold coins. Upgrading the One-Click Martial Arts Function to level 2. The speed at which martial techniques are learned is now two times the base speed!]
In that instant, Su Lang noticed a sudden surge of warmth flowing through his limbs and bones.
He could even feel the increase in his strength, defense, movement speed, and endurance.
Right at this moment!
[Ding! The Origin Body Forging Technique has reached the entry level.]
"What the hell?! I'm already at the entry level?"
Upon receiving that system notification, Su Lang revealed a shocked expression that was difficult to conceal.
Immediately after taking a deep breath, he opened up his Property Panel.
[Name]: Su Lang
[Race]: Human
[Aptitude]: Turbid Body
[Realm Level] : Peak Body Tempering
[Attack Level] : Peak Body Tempering +
[Defense Level] : Peak Body Tempering +
[Movement Level] : Peak Body Tempering +
[Endurance Level] : Peak Body Tempering +
[Skill Mastery] : Infinite Heart Sutra, Origin Body Tempering Technique (Low rank, Entry state)
[Activated System Functions] : One-Click Cultivation Function (Level 3), One-Click Martial Arts Function (Level 2)
"Hehe, it seems that a (+) sign has even been added behind the my foundation stats. The benefits this time certainly aren't small."
Su Lang could not help but burst into a fit of laughter and thought to himself, "After I'm done with this matter, I'll have to go back and find more martial techniques to cultivate! But, of course, I won't be the one doing the hard work."
CHAPTER 23 - LOW RANK WEAPON CULTIVATION TECHNIQUE
Only after cooling his head off for a long time did Su Lang finally regain his initial tranquility.
Suddenly, he remembered that a woman was standing next to him the entire time.
With a turn of his head, Su Lang noticed the woman in blue staring blankly at him.
"You saw nothing. Let's move."
Su Lang waved his hand and turned to leave.
"Huh? Oh!"
The woman came back to her senses and quickly followed his lead.
Looking at Su Lang's back, the woman wondered why Su Lang's expression had changed so drastically. It was as if he had encountered some sort of miracle.
