Chapter 221: Chapter 105: Qi and Blood Six Transformations! Sixth Realm Giant Whale Technique!_4

If Su Changkong’s Giant Whale Skill and Turtle Breath Technique were both at Tier 6, then the Tier 6 Giant Whale Skill would easily crush the combat power of even a Tier 7 Turtle Breath Technique in battle.

Indeed, Martial Arts differ in strength, and a Peerless Sword Technique of the same realm will certainly defeat an ordinary Swordsmanship of the same realm.

“If the Giant Whale Skill reaches Tier 7, reflecting Profound Mastery… the increase in fighting strength would probably not be much less than that of a Tier 9 Turtle Breath Technique, and if it reaches Tier 8… it might even surpass a Tier 9 Turtle Breath Technique!”

Su Changkong thought to himself.

Lower-tier Martial Arts are simple and easier to practice, but they have a lower ceiling compared to higher-tier Martial Arts; mysterious and high-tier Martial Skills and Techniques demand greater talent, are harder to begin with, and even more challenging to master deeply, but their ceiling is much higher!

It’s like comparing hounds to tigers; although hounds are fierce, if both are adults, then the tiger can easily slaughter the hound!

Similarly, an adult tiger consumes much more food than an adult hound.

As the Sect’s Top Skill of the Giant Whale Gang, Giant Whale Skill possesses immense potential, and if it could reach Tier 7 or 8, it wouldn’t be weaker than a Tier 9 Turtle Breath Technique, and might even be stronger!

And if it reached the same Tier 9… that would be a one-sided crushing, like the difference between an adult tiger and a hunting dog!

Su Changkong started practicing the Giant Whale Skill relatively late and had spent less time cultivating it, so his realm was far behind that of the Turtle Breath Technique, but that did not mean it was inferior to the Turtle Breath Technique.

However, Su Changkong felt that even Sikong Yong, with his Giant Whale Skill, was probably only between Tier 7 and 8, and he was still in his prime when he died.

“What a pity, the Gong Family didn’t come to redeem the Divine Arm Crossbow, I still have 550,000 taels of silver, all of which, if made into Qi-Blood Pills, would likely still not be enough for me to break through to the Qi-Blood Seven Transformation,”

Su Changkong lamented to himself.

Half a year ago, Gong Yuhu of the Gong Family came to demand the Divine Arm Crossbow, to which Su Changkong directly stated it would be returned for one million taels of silver.

But after such a long time, no one from the Gong Family came again, which seemed to indicate they weren’t prepared to pay this hefty sum.

Otherwise, with another million taels of silver, purchasing all the medicinal materials that boost energy and replenish blood, and then concocting them into pills, would likely be enough for another blood refining.

The Qi-Blood Four Transformation is a twelve-tier process, with a major checkpoint every three transformations, and the division between the Qi-Blood Six Transformation and Qi-Blood Seven Transformation is marked by the boundary between Qi-Blood Wolf Smoke and Qi-Blood Long Dragon, which isn’t easy to break through.

Experts like Meng Sang and Tie Jinggang had been stuck at this realm for many years, and those who were at the Level of Qi-Blood Long Dragon were few and far between in the entire Ink Forest Prefecture City.

Su Changkong had been in quiet cultivation for half a year, but the tranquility was shattered!

“Master Su, the Second Miss asks to see you,”

On this night, a disciple of the Giant Whale Gang found Su Changkong and said with great respect.

“The Second Sister wants to see me?”

Upon hearing this, Su Changkong was slightly surprised, Sikong Huang seeking him out most likely meant that there was a matter at hand!

“Mhm, I understand,” Su Changkong nodded and agreed to the request.

Su Changkong did not delay and headed to Sikong Huang’s residence to see her, wanting to know what had happened.

In a grand hall, Su Changkong saw Sikong Huang, but not only her, Sikong Zhan was also present, and both had serious expressions on their faces.

“Big Brother, Second Sister, at this late hour, has something urgent happened?”

Su Changkong couldn’t help but ask.

Sikong Zhan and Sikong Huang both nodded. Sikong Huang spoke with a serious tone, “It’s possible… the Gong Family might be preparing to take action against our Giant Whale Gang.”

“The Gong Family is taking action against the Giant Whale Gang?”

This surprised Su Changkong as well, could it be because of the matter with the Divine Arm Crossbow?

But that seemed like a huge reaction for such a small issue. Although Su Changkong had not returned the Divine Arm Crossbow to the Gong Family at that time, the Giant Whale Gang hadn’t made a big deal out of it in these past days.

Logically, the Gong Family wouldn’t tear their faces with the Giant Whale Gang over this. After all, the Giant Whale Gang had high morale and great prestige nowadays; if the Gong Family wanted to make a move, they would have done so when the Giant Whale Gang was unstable.

The Gong Family was managing Ink Forest Prefecture City, living a secure and prosperous life; there was no need for them to conflict with the Giant Whale Gang and end up both getting hurt!

“Just now, one of our Giant Whale Gang branches stationed near Maple Leaf Forest sent out a distress signal. Disciples nearby rushed over but saw a large number of well-trained soldiers, all from the Ink Forest Army of Ink Forest Prefecture City. Therefore, they didn’t dare to make any rash moves and immediately came back to report!”

Sikong Zhan relayed the situation.

Maple Leaf Forest, about a hundred miles from the Giant Whale Gang’s headquarters, had one of the Giant Whale Gang’s strongholds, a branch.

“The Ink Forest Army has mobilized? But what’s the use of attacking just one Giant Whale Gang stronghold?”

Su Changkong was also astonished.

The Ink Forest Army, that is the most elite force of the Ink Forest Prefecture City, composed of elite martial artists, and well-trained at that. They are the most important force for defending the order and safety of Ink Forest Prefecture City and are not easily mobilized!

But according to the Giant Whale Gang disciples’ report, the Maple Leaf Forest branch sent out a distress signal, which would only happen in a highly urgent situation, and the Giant Whale Gang disciples who arrived later discovered a large number of Ink Forest Army soldiers.

On the surface, it seemed like the Gong Family had ordered the Ink Forest Army to attack the Giant Whale Gang’s branch, but there was something suspicious about it.

If the Gong Family really wanted to take action against the Giant Whale Gang, they should have mobilized heavy troops to strike directly at the Giant Whale Gang’s headquarters, catching them off guard, instead of just attacking a branch and alarming them.

“This situation is quite strange, it could also be that the Gong Family is trying to intimidate the Giant Whale Gang. We’ve decided to go have a look ourselves… If things turn serious, father may need to negotiate with them,” Sikong Huang said.

“Alright, I will come and have a look too,” Su Changkong nodded in agreement.

This situation could have been triggered by the Divine Arm Crossbow and was somewhat related to Su Changkong. He decided to go to the site and see for himself what exactly was happening.

Without hesitation, Su Changkong expertly altered his bone structure and disguised himself, taking on the appearance of Sikong Yong.

Once ready, Su Changkong and the three of them headed in the direction of Maple Leaf Forest. They did not make a big scene and needed to understand the specific situation first to respond accordingly!

For ordinary people, a hundred miles was a great distance, but for masters like Su Changkong, who had reached the Qi Blood Four Transformation and above, they could cover the distance in the time it took to burn an incense stick while traveling at full speed.

It was nighttime now, with a bright moon hanging high. Maple Leaf Forest was silent, filled with flowers, grass, and trees, all becoming somewhat tranquil under the moonlight.

When Su Changkong and the others arrived at Maple Leaf Forest, they deliberately concealed their aura and scoped out the surroundings of the forest.

“This… it is indeed the Ink Forest Army!”

Sikong Huang stared solemnly at the distance.

Su Changkong also saw them: around Maple Leaf Forest, soldiers in dark iron armor were quietly setting up something.

These soldiers were all tall and strong, wearing high-quality armor, armed with weapons at their waists, and carrying bows and arrows on their backs, fully armed!
