In the system, the mission to destroy the Yong'an Society had been completed. Yang Yu saw that his exchange points had increased to 110, with 100 of those points being the reward from this mission.
Of course, the most precious reward was a chance to draw a prize.
Drawing a prize meant martial arts manuals, meant power, and this was the most direct reason why Yang Yu had taken on this mission.
"Would the Sect Leader like to draw a prize now?" the intelligent program asked.
Yang Yu nodded: "Let's draw!"
After he spoke, everything before his eyes changed, and the familiar wheel appeared.
5 basic martial arts: Wudang Long Fist, Demon Subduing Fist, Through-the-Arms Fist, Taizu Long Fist, and Phantom Leg.
4 beginner martial arts: Quanzhen Sect Basic Internal Technique, Hengshan Sect Basic Internal Technique, Chongling Sword Technique, and Vajra Tiger Subduing Saber Technique.
3 intermediate martial arts: Quanzhen Sect Intermediate Internal Technique, Soft Cloud Sword Technique, and Wudang Nine Yang Technique.
2 advanced martial arts: Purple Mist Divine Technique and Vajra Finger.
1 top-tier martial art: Power Dissolving Technique.
1 ultimate martial art: Yi Jin Jing.
As for the remaining 2 slots, they contained: Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder and Black Silkworm Garment.
Compared to the last time, the martial arts on the wheel had changed somewhat, with several new and good martial arts appearing.
Among them:
Quanzhen Sect Intermediate Internal Technique: This was not something just anyone in the Quanzhen Sect could practice. When Yang Guo first entered the Quanzhen Sect, he only practiced the most basic internal technique. This intermediate technique was likely only for people like Yin Zhiping and Zhao Zhijun.
Vajra Finger: This was one of the 72 unique skills of Shaolin Temple, and was quite powerful among finger techniques.
Power Dissolving Technique: This was a skill of Duan Chunqiu from the Xingxiu Sect, derived from the Northern Mystic Technique of the Free and Easy Sect. Both techniques had similarities, making the practitioner feel their internal energy involuntarily drain away. However, the Power Dissolving Technique was far inferior to the Northern Mystic Technique.
Yi Jin Jing: This was a top-tier martial art of Shaolin Temple, appearing in several martial arts novels. It was undoubtedly an ultimate martial art, the secret manual that martial artists dreamed of. In "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," You Tanzhi became one of the top experts in the martial world after practicing just a half-baked version of it, showing its immense power.
As for the basic and beginner martial arts, the Chongling Sword Technique was something that Linghu Chong and his junior sister had come up with, so it was generous to call it a beginner martial art. On the contrary, the Wudang Long Fist and Through-the-Arms Fist in the basic martial arts were quite good.
Without further analysis, Yang Yu spun the wheel.
Although he had drawn prizes twice before, with so many powerful martial arts in front of him, Yang Yu couldn't help but feel nervous.
After one full rotation:
The Quanzhen Sect Intermediate Internal Technique passed, the Soft Cloud Sword Technique passed, the Wudang Nine Yang Technique passed...
The needle began to slow down.
The Purple Mist Divine Technique passed, the Vajra Finger passed...
Yang Yu became increasingly nervous. He had already passed the advanced martial arts section. Could he draw a top-tier or ultimate martial art?
Thinking of the Power Dissolving Technique and Yi Jin Jing, Yang Yu was almost jumping with excitement. If he could get a top-tier or ultimate martial art, his cultivation speed would skyrocket, and techniques like the Shaolin Heavenly Gang Protective Technique would be nothing to him.
"The Power Dissolving Technique passed," Yang Yu muttered to himself. The needle was now very slow, right in the Yi Jin Jing section.
"Stop, just stop!" Yang Yu almost shouted. He knew that if it stopped, the Yi Jin Jing would be his. This was an ultimate martial art, and the thought of it was exhilarating.
The needle moved slowly, though extremely slowly, it was still moving. Gradually, it reached the edge of the Yi Jin Jing section. Yang Yu held his breath, hoping the needle would stop.
But!
The needle, as if opposing him, slowly passed the Yi Jin Jing section. Although it only moved a tiny bit, it had passed.
"Damn, is this a scam?" Yang Yu couldn't help but curse. Indeed, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. If he hadn't had such high hopes, he wouldn't have been so disappointed.
The system's voice sounded in his mind: "Congratulations, Sect Leader, you have drawn Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder."
"Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder, what a joke, I'd rather draw a basic martial art," Yang Yu said with a bitter smile. He looked at the wheel, which was indeed pointing to the Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder. He hadn't expected to draw one of the two slots that weren't manuals so quickly.
At this stage, based on his actual needs, Yang Yu most hoped for martial arts manuals. While Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder was a good thing, was it necessary to use such a high-level item on ordinary people?
Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder came from "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber." It had no color or smell, and those who ingested it would become weak and unable to use their internal energy. It was more like a sedative than a poison. This item was mainly used against martial artists, and using it on ordinary people would be overkill.
This powder could be mixed into food or directly scattered. As long as it came into contact with the powder, the person would collapse.
"Fine, Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder it is. Maybe it will be useful someday," Yang Yu muttered to himself.
He looked at the vial in his hand, which contained enough to incapacitate at least ten martial experts.
Dividing it into three parts, Yang Yu wrapped it in paper and stored it in the Sect Leader's space. Just as he was about to leave, he asked casually, "Intelligent program, how many exchange points would it cost to exchange for Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder?"
"Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder is a level 2 item, and the system's price is 220 exchange points," the intelligent program answered mechanically.
"Level 2 item, 220 exchange points?" Yang Yu was taken aback by the high price.
He had long known about the system's item grading.
From lowest to highest, there were seven levels. The sleeve arrow he had exchanged for was only a level 1 item. The Bone Washing Pill was much higher, around level 3 to 4, but as a system benefit, it only cost 10 exchange points, showing how cheap it was. Similarly, the Qi Induction Pill was also very cheap.
"The pack of Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder you drew can incapacitate at least ten Yellow-level martial artists or three to five Mystic-level martial artists. Is such an item not worth the price?" the intelligent program asked calmly.
After a moment of thought, Yang Yu nodded solemnly: "Worth it, absolutely worth it!"
To incapacitate ten Yellow-level martial artists, he couldn't even handle one now. A pack of Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder had such power, giving him a sense of security. However, he might not need it at this stage.
Exiting the system space, Yang Yu found that Su Qi had completely digested the Bone Washing Pill and had become more lively. Thinking about it, Yang Yu decided to teach Su Qi the Shaolin Heavenly Gang Protective Technique once he had mastered the Luohan Fist to a certain level.
Thinking of Su Qi, Yang Yu also thought of Han Hu and Sun Xiaoran. He wondered how they were doing with the Luohan Fist. However, teaching the Shaolin Heavenly Gang Protective Technique to Han Hu was fine, but teaching it to Sun Xiaoran was inappropriate. He was sure Han Hu wouldn't want Sun Xiaoran to become a muscle-bound woman.
"Martial arts manuals are still too few, I need to work harder!" Yang Yu sighed deeply and then fell into a deep sleep.
