This format can greatly eliminate biases among different Secret Martial Art schools, forming a platform that at least superficially appears cohesive. It not only facilitates the exchange and progress of experts from the Secret Martial Arts World but also expands their influence while assigning tasks targeting dark creatures.

There might be some sleaziness, some accidents.

But as long as Casio, the future Tyrant Fist, is in charge, not a single wave could stir in just two to three years. He could also take this opportunity to experiment during the Era of Retrospection and if it proves effective, directly replicate it in the Real World.

The above are some of the thoughts currently in Casio’s mind. Specific operations would still be adapted to local conditions and based on reality.

**********************************

Buzzing…

After a moment of haziness, everyone left the Ash Boundary and reappeared on the lowest level of the Ancient Ruins. This time, they did not use the convenient passage opened by the bronze key because the Secret Martial Art armory was on the fourth level of the Ancient Ruins, which they would have bypassed had they taken the convenient passage.

“Let’s go!”

Casio, a towering black silhouette, took the lead without any hesitation. The tattered hem of his trench coat rustled fiercely, like rolling dark clouds. Footsteps closely followed behind him.

More than seventy people from the Secret Martial Arts World camp, all Fighters of great skill!

Dozens from the Black Rain Villa camp as well, all top-tier Knights!

Over a hundred silhouettes swiftly moved forward, their speed creating afterimages that flickered powerfully. The dense crowd brought a heavy oppressive feel. The overlapping aura of the strong was suffocating.

The monsters and exotic species in the Ancient Ruins were in for a treat today!

Four to five hours later, in a certain area on the fourth level of the Ancient Ruins.

Bang!

A pale-skinned fighter who was nearly two meters tall slightly flexed his fists. Suddenly, with a rapid flicker, he appeared in front of an exotic species and without hesitation, smashed his fist right into its jaw.

The exotic species flew out instantly; its entire skeletal structure was deformed, and blood filled its mouth. It glided for several meters and then with a thud, it crashed to the ground. After sliding for two meters, a boot blocked its path.

The black hardened leather boot lifted and then stomped down firmly onto the grotesque, bloodied face of the exotic species. It ground lightly and then stomped down fiercely.

With a squelching sound, the immense force flattened the head beneath the foot!

The exotic species’s body shook violently, twitched once, and then was devoid of life. The boot lifted from the pool of blood, still shiny, without a stain. It was evidently coated with a layer of Black Spirit.

Casio slowly lifted his head and scanned the surrounding area. This was a vast cavity that also served as a bloody battlefield.

The air was filled with the sickening smell of blood, which was somewhat nauseating.

Five minutes earlier, the entire team had entered this cavity. From the dense holes in the cavity, humanoid creatures resembling insects swarmed out, launching an attack. They were then brutally beaten, terribly so. The ground was covered with the corpses of these insect men and their green, viscous blood.

For a full five minutes, over a thousand insect men were massacred by the Fighters and Eerie Night Guests. Limbs and bodies were strewn everywhere, creating a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

The fourth and fifth levels of the Ancient Ruins also had areas that were tricky and dangerous, and even the team of over a hundred strong had to be cautious. However, clearly, these insect men were not included in that category.

“We’re almost there. The Boxing Method armory should be just a hundred meters ahead,” said Casio as he slowly walked past corpse after corpse, leaving bloody footprints from his boots. He took the lead and headed towards a dim tunnel ahead. With a click, a brawny man, whose arms were as thick as an ordinary person’s thighs, exerted a bit of force and directly snapped the neck of an insect man. The brawny man shook his hand and quickly followed Casio’s silhouette.

Fighter after fighter and Eerie Night Guest quickly followed suit.

Thirty seconds later, a black and hard wall appeared before everyone. The Boxing Method armory in the Ancient Ruins might be just behind this wall?

Three minutes had passed.

The burly man who had just strangled the insect man turned his head to look back and saw, quite significantly, five thick walls standing behind him, each as thick as half a room.

Moreover, the rock layers were hard, as if coated and refined by some secret force. A fighter had tried to attack it, using all his lethal moves, but he could only make a basketball-sized pit in it. Now, all five walls had been breached, displaying a hole six meters in diameter. This was the work of Casio, the leader. At that time, the burly man had only seen Casio lightly tapping with his fingers, as though a piece of steel thorn feathers were falling.

The moment they touched the wall, there was a “puff” sound.

The entire wall segment appeared as if it had vanished into thin air, leaving a huge, smooth hole that allowed several people to walk through abreast. As for any rubble or dust, none appeared. It was as if they had been erased by some mysterious force, or devoured by a giant mouth.

With five taps of his fingers, Casio had directly breached the armory’s defenses.

Barbed Feather Energy, truly marvelous, the effects were extraordinary.

In the Boxing Method armory, flames flickered at the top, providing illumination. The gate masters and elders from the major schools of the Secret Martial Arts World held their breath and looked around. Initially stunned with expressions of shock and bewilderment, their faces soon twisted into a frenzied joy.

Indeed, the Boxing Method armory was real, and the treasure trove of Secret Martial Arts was real too.

Looking around, the armory was densely packed with stone platforms, each topped with indentations. In the indentations lay several secret manuals. On the walls, there were basketball-sized black holes, each containing more secret manuals. All in all, the total number certainly exceeded three figures.

This time, they really struck gold!

The trip to Immortal Island had been worth it!

The revival of their schools looked hopeful!

In that moment, the expressions of the dozens of gate masters and elders were incredibly animated. Each harbored their thoughts and desires, but all were after the secret techniques of Martial Arts.

How could one not be overjoyed with the most needed items now in hand?

With a vast collection of martial arts manuals laid out before them, their breathing grew heavier just thinking about the value contained within, the benefits and power they would bring. However, though everyone was heated with excitement, they still retained their rationality. All remained still, waiting for Casio to handle the allocation.

“Let’s take all of these with us first, not leaving anything behind. Once we leave the dangerous areas of the Ancient Ruins and Immortal Islands and return to the fleet, we’ll allocate them…” Casio thought for a moment and immediately made a decision.

Without delay, everyone began to act, sweeping the Boxing Method armory clean.

They even dug three feet into the ground, not overlooking any corner, such that they resembled bandits crossing the land. The Martial Arts manuals were gathered up and carried by four commanders under Casio’s command. These four, in turn, were tightly guarded in the center by many fighters from the Secret Martial Arts World, a very cautious posture apparent among the group.

It seemed as if they were ready to fight to the death with any attacker at the slightest mishap.

The route back to the surface was much slower than the way in. First, because they did not use the convenient passageway, and second, because the people from the Secret Martial Arts World were extremely cautious. Any slight rustle of the wind or grass had them on guard, thus making their journey slow. Fortunately, despite the fears, they made it to the surface without incident.

They emerged in a gorge on the inner part of Immortal Island.

Since the Ripple master organization had been annihilated, there was no force left on Immortal Island to hinder the team’s progress. Hence, their departure from Immortal Island was very smooth. It only took them a short time to reach the beach.

Half an hour later, the fleet slowly began its journey.

Dense silhouettes stood on the deck, looking back at the island.

From the stern, Casio quietly looked towards the beach.
