Chapter 741 - 741 389 South Dipper Red Vulture Fist Trial Field

Chapter 741: 389 South Dipper Red Vulture Fist Trial Field (4100)_2 Chapter 741: 389 South Dipper Red Vulture Fist Trial Field (4100)_2 In other words, this place seemed more like a branding field for forms of martial arts. Specific boxing imprints were activated by the Deathfang Power, and the red figure would then execute the moves of that imprint. It attacked Casio and crossed blows with him.

“Let’s test it out first…”

He extended his index finger and lightly tapped on one of the fist imprints on the wall.

All of a sudden, the blood silhouette rushed towards him. It spread its arms and began spinning rapidly. Its right hand, like a cleaver, traced out a large radian in the air and a streak of blood light traced out a graceful line.

Boom!

A fist, similarly wrapped in Blood Qi, collided with the hand knife.

Casio did not retreat half a step, while the blood silhouette pivoted its footsteps, adjusted its position like a spinning top, and another blood-colored hand knife slashed towards him from behind.

Boom! Casio blocked it again, their hand knives striking each other.

The blood shadow sent itself spinning around Casio, with each high-speed movement and maneuver attacking him. Boom boom boom boom!

The shadows of fists and the hand knives clashed, creating a series of dull thumping sounds. The air exploded and formed visible white shockwaves.

Casio shook his right arm, creating an afterimage, and exploded the head of the blood shadow with one punch, he then slowly lowered his arm as he breathed out softly through his nostrils.

Taking a brief moment, Casio tested a few more imprints.

He had figured it out.

This place was very likely the birthplace of the original version of the Southern Dipper Red Vulture Fist.

When the ancient sages were trying to create a martial art that combined decomposition and spiral characteristics, this was one of their experimental fields. The imprints Casio touched all contained the rudimentary moves of the original version of the Southern Dipper Red Vulture Fist. They were at a stage of exploration, working towards establishing a structural framework step-by-step.

Most of the martial art imprints couldn’t manage a good balance between the decomposition and spiral characteristics, only being able to employ one over the other. Although a few martial imprints contained both characteristics, they were contradictory. Only three or four imprints seemed designed to seamlessly blend the two characteristics together.

Casio tested quickly, trying out these three or four imprints one after another.

He was shocked to find that the power of these few martial art forms could match, and even surpass, the three forms he had created, namely Hundred Palm of Thousand Hands born from Blood Reflecting Flower, Spiral Finger Gun, and Red Waterfall Explosion.

The Finger Gun was especially striking in comparison because one of the martial imprints it tested also had a Finger Gun move, but it was far more powerful.

After repeatedly activating it several times, Casio finally found a clue. This form created by the ancient sages astonishingly used spiral force as the main component and decomposition force as auxiliary to create the Finger Gun. Its penetrating power was extremely strong!

On the other hand, the form he created himself barely amalgamated the spiral and decomposition characteristics together. With no clear distinction between the primary and secondary forces, the result appeared chaotic and contradictory.

Casio tried to execute his other two moves and found them suffering from the same problem. They were not refined enough, lacked emphasis on the primary and secondary, and were overly neutral. An insight suddenly hit him that the moves of the Southern Dipper Red Vulture Fist needed to be streamlined into two moves.

One that primarily shows the spiral characteristic and secondary, the decomposition characteristic.

The Spiral Finger Gun could be used as the framework for refinement.

There should be one form with decomposition as the primary characteristic and the spiral as the secondary.

He had started thinking about this but hadn’t developed a framework yet. Perhaps after practicing with these imprints on the wall for some time, he would have some insights.

If Casio could completely comprehend these martial arts imprints recording the creation process of the Southern Dipper Red Vulture Fist, he might greatly benefit from it. It was as if he understood the underlying principles of the martial arts, knowing why it was the way it was.

In this way, he could perhaps reach the thoroughly enlightened state of a martial art creator.

After further research, Casio realized the final secret skill of Southern Dipper Red Vulture Fist that Feng Liusi passed down to him, the Blood Vulture’s Beak, had a perfect structure.

Astonishingly, it pushed the spiral and decomposition characteristics to their extreme limits.

Indeed, the ‘Beak of the Blood Vulture’ technique possesses two primary characteristics that, surprisingly, do not contradict each other. On the contrary, they complement each other, just like in a chemical reaction.

Which, in turn, unleashes an explosive, terrifying force!

It must be said, Feng Liusi was a genius. Even though he only started practising the ‘South Dipper Red Vulture Fist’ in his forties, he demonstrated astonishing compatibility and creativity.

The ‘Beak of the Blood Vulture’ alone can be considered a masterpiece.

What a pity, he was just a little too late. Precisely at the time when he was aged and weakened, he finally found the right path only to lack a successor, which resulted in deviation.

If Feng Liusi had mastered the ‘South Dipper Red Vulture Fist’ from the start, there would not have been a limit to his potential. Ultimate Fighter? Saint Fist?

In the first floor of the building, Casio slowly opened his eyes, feeling that this place was truly remarkable. This trial ground for the ‘South Dipper Red Vulture Fist’ was clearly meant for refining techniques and skills. It was of great significance to Casio filling in his shortcomings.

He glanced around and realized that the building has three floors.

Casio immediately went to the second floor. There were still markings of the boxing method here, but far fewer. He tried to stimulate them in the same way but to no avail. A moment later, Casio went up to the third floor. The boxing method marks here were meager, but the destruction traces left behind were profound.

He almost understood. Different intensities of ‘Deathfang Power’ correspond to different floor levels of the ‘South Dipper Red Vulture Fist’ trial ground. With his current sixteen acupuncture points, Casio naturally could only provoke the first floor of the trial ground.

It would take reaching the third or fourth stage to get to the second floor.

And the fifth and sixth stages for the third floor.

Regrettably, he could only go back to the first floor and leave the trial ground building. Casio then swiftly explored the town, looking to see if there were any other ‘South Dipper Fist’ trial grounds. Unfortunately, this town only had one ‘South Dipper Red Vulture Fist’ trial ground, and the traces left in other places were also ‘Deathfang Power’. This indicated that this was the birthplace of the ‘Red Vulture Fist’.

As for other ‘South Dipper Fist’ methods, perhaps they would select a place like this to progressively test, refine, and perfect their ultimate force. Perhaps, there’s more than one ‘Undead Cemetery’ in the ‘World of Calamities’.

Casio’s eyes gradually deepened. Up until now, his ‘South Dipper Sonic Serpent Fist’ had only created a roar as a killing blow. Not to mention, he was not very satisfied with the move and seldom used it.

If he could find the ‘Undead Cemetery’ of the ‘South Dipper Sonic Serpent Fist,’ Casio would obtain the insights and inspiration of the ancient sages, which would probably lead to rapid advancement.

Creating two killing blows might be quite smooth. Moreover, creating his own final secret skill may not be impossible. After all, ‘Wailing Valley’ was swarming with wraiths, which were natural sparring partners. The boxing method is thus honed and sublimated in battle.

The prerequisite being: don’t overdo it and die too many times.

Always ensure that one life is left in the resurrection altar.

After all, each battle against the wraith of a fighter who has mastered Secret Martial Art is a very dangerous undertaking. They aren’t mindless and feral beasts. If these martial art masters catch any shortcomings in Casio, they might defeat him. If he encounters a powerful enemy, death could even be possible.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the ‘Pale Land’ held great potential.

Even without any ‘Soul Jade’ or ‘Pale Seeds,’ just the ‘South Dipper Fist’ trial ground and the ample fighters’ wraiths as sparring partners were more than enough. Casio felt his visit to be worthwhile.

“Roar!!!”

Suddenly, a massive beast-like roar came from behind the town.

Casio took a light step, flickered a few times, and immediately rushed over.

Standing on the rooftop, he looked towards the ‘Undead Cemetery’ from afar.

Two figures were running towards the town, chased by a large expanding mass of ‘Blood Qi’. Whoosh! A six-metre tall figure shot out from the ‘Blood Qi,’ its limbs heavily landing on the ground with a thud.

Its lower body was like a wolf-like wild beast, with powerful claws showing a reverse joint curvature, covered with blood-red fur. The upper half resembled the shape of a human, as if made up of linked skeletal segments.

The horns on top of its head were like winding tree branches, merging to form a twisted shape. There were black holes at the end of the horns, with ‘Blood Qi’ wafting from them.

“Is that… a Blood Butcher?”

On the rooftop, a figure fell like a meteor.
