Wizard: I Can Refine Everything-Chapter 507 - 52 Martial Arts Refining Technique, True Intent Inheritance

Chapter 507: Chapter 52 Martial Arts Refining Technique, True Intent Inheritance

Seeing his master’s prowess, Kong Xiong was reassured.

While several hundred years of seclusion had not completed the Body Refining Technique, progress in martial arts was still a good thing.

Now, a complete Body Refining Technique was like a distant water source; it couldn’t solve the immediate crisis facing the Banshan Sect.

After taking Richard to the bedroom, Kong Xiong naturally withdrew, ready to summon all the Hall Masters to stabilize the internal situation.

The current threatening situation of the Banshan Sect was clear without saying, and Kong Xiong knew many Hall Masters were contemplating defecting.

It was human nature; if Kong Xiong weren’t the Sect Master of Banshan Sect, he might also consider joining a major sect.

Richard looked around; he was now in a separate courtyard, facing a modestly built brick and wood structure that radiated ancient charm.

Before entering, Richard habitually used his spiritual power to scan the room. This scanning brought an unexpected discovery.

A flicker of surprise crossed Richard’s face, "There’s actually a secret chamber."

Upon entering the room, the bedroom appeared quite spacious, with a huge weapon rack filled with various weaponry. These weapons were similar in style to those from the Wizard World and had nothing special about them.

Humans and Wild Beastmen both had humanoid shapes, so it wasn’t surprising to see similarities in their weaponry.

Besides the weapons, several huge stone locks were placed in the corners of the room. These stone locks, dubbed "Craftsman" by the Wild Beastmen and crafted by warriors similar to Alchemy Wizards, usually weighed hundreds to thousands of pounds, but if infused with Martial Arts True Energy, could increase in weight multiple times in moments, the higher grade locks increasing by even more.

According to memory extracted from the soul of an old Beastman by Richard, these stone locks were capable of increasing weight twenty times, classifying them as middle goods among Martial Arts Stone Locks.

Richard approached and picked up a stone lock, one particularly refined lock causing the Miracle Furnace to pop up information.

[Material: Martial Arts Stone Lock]

[Refinable skills: Martial Arts Refining Technique (incomplete)]

[Refining cost: 5 spiritual power]

[Refinable information: Martial Arts Array: Weight Increase]

[Refining cost: 2 spiritual power]

Without hesitation, Richard chose to refine. Moments later, a look of realization appeared on Richard’s face.

"Interesting, such a peculiar forging technique."

To Richard, the forging techniques of the Wild Beastmen seemed like a combination of Giant Dragon Alchemy and Pioneer technology. It adopted the Pioneer’s approach of complex energy nodes forming Magic Models to achieve objectives, yet the process resembled that of Giant Dragon Alchemy.

If he had to make a comparison, this technique was somewhat like another kind of Wizard Alchemy. However, Wizard Alchemy was simpler, though its effects were not inferior.

Nevertheless, as an Alchemy Master, this technique was still an invaluable treasure to Richard.

Richard thought to himself, "It seems I need to gather more information about martial arts and other things in the future."

After placing the stone lock down, Richard walked to the far end of the room. There, a large stone bed with a surface smooth as a mirror likely ancient, awaited.

Richard bent down to grip the bed, his arms exerting slight force.

In the next moment, the bed, weighing tens of thousands of pounds, was effortlessly moved aside by him.

Below the stone bed was a secret chamber. Richard swept it with his spirit, ensuring there were no traps before entering.

The secret chamber was small, about ten square meters, and filled with several bound books and a painting solemnly sealed away.

Richard browsed through them quickly and found they all recorded martial arts secrets and insights.

"Good stuff."

Delighted, Richard immediately began to peruse these secret books. With his photographic memory and ability to multitask, he memorized all the secrets within minutes.

Only the painting made Richard pause.

This painting, solemnly preserved by Zheng Zhong, depicted a massive Bull Demon.

The artist must have been a master; the painting was not detailed, but rather with a few brush strokes it depicted a fierce and wild Bull Demon standing tall and powerful.

However, Richard wasn’t concerned with the brush techniques, but rather the content encapsulated within the painting.

"Is this the so-called True Intent Inheritance?"

Richard looked at the painting, a smirk of interest appearing on his lips.

The martial arts inheritance of the Wild Beastmen had a special tradition. This tradition didn’t rely on text but solely on true intent.

If one could resonate with the true intent within the inheritance, it could be obtained. If not, one could only look upon it without gaining access.

Unfortunately for the painting, it met its nemesis in Richard.

With a light touch of his hand, the Miracle Furnace immediately displayed information.

[Material: Banshan Barbarian Bull Map]

[Refinable information: Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power Inheritance]

[Refining cost: 20 spiritual power]

"Refine."

The next moment, the scroll momentarily disappeared and reappeared, but this time, it seemed soulless, devoid of its former divine aura.

Richard’s eyes were tightly closed as he continuously digested the True Intent Inheritance of the Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power.

In Richard’s perception, this kind of True Intent Inheritance was somewhat similar to the skills he had refined using the Melter, but in terms of intensity, the True Intent Inheritance was far inferior to the Miracle Furnace.

Furthermore, this True Intent Inheritance had a side effect, which was that during the reception of the True Intent, the receiver would inevitably be influenced by the True Intent, thus influencing their personality and even their behavior to become similar to that of the inheritor.

However, Richard’s spiritual power far exceeded that of the former Moving Mountain real person, so the little bit of True Intent left behind naturally had no effect on him.

Shortly after, Richard opened his eyes.

"Indeed, the inheritance of such a small sect really isn’t anything special."

Richard was slightly disappointed, as the content of this True Intent Inheritance was the Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power. Had it been an ordinary Wild Beastman, this one-time True Intent Inheritance would have been enough to make him a master of the Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power.

But for Richard, this True Intent Inheritance was no different from an ordinary inheritance.

The technique of Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power was very mediocre, not much more delicate than what Richard had learned from Monk Transmission at Changshan Temple, and far from being as exquisite as the Secret Transmission.

Back then, he had spent ten years learning most of the Changshan Temple inheritance. Although he hadn’t focused on studying them in these years, the accumulation of spare time had greatly improved his skills.

For the current Richard, he just needed a little pondering to grasp the secrets within this inheritance.

If he wished to study it, pushing the old to bring forth the new wouldn’t take much effort.

After all, Changshan Temple was a force that had produced a World Master among its ancestors, and even if it couldn’t surpass the Martial Arts Sects of the Wilderness Land, it was more than enough compared to these sects.

Nonetheless, while the Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power was ordinary, it did have some worthwhile aspects.

The martial arts of the Wild Beastman emphasized the integration of the body, energy, and spirit—where "body" refers to the physical body, "energy" refers to energy, and "spirit" refers to the soul, which is spiritual power.

Among these, being able to utilize one element was considered low-grade martial arts, merging two was considered middle grade, and combining all three—achieving a through connection—was reserved for top-grade martial arts highly prized by the major sects.

This Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power combined energy and body, categorizing it as middle grade martial arts, and the method of combining these two, in Richard’s view, held significant educational value.

Though the Moving Mountain Barbaric Bull Power was ordinary, being a part of the vast martial arts tree granted it an inherent advantage over the evolutionary methods of other natives.

After setting aside the already devoid of True Intent Moving Mountain Barbarian Bull Map, Richard left the secret chamber.

Restoring the stone bed to its original place, Richard assumed a stance similar to the horse stance and began to close his eyes, recalling the just-reviewed martial arts secret book.

Compared to True Intent Inheritance, these manuals had a greater impact. Their greater volume of content enabled Richard to more systematically understand the secrets of the martial arts evolutionary system.

Soon after, Kong Xiong returned to the bedroom. Seeing his master practicing, he carefully called out,

"Master? Master?"

Richard opened his eyes, showing displeasure.

"What is it?"

Kong Xiong respectfully said, "Master, right now, the people of the Banshan Sect are in a state of disarray; we need you to come forward to stabilize the morale. Otherwise, I fear some Hall Masters might flee with their territories before the Martial Arts Gathering."

"Then let them flee," Richard said indifferently, "Such people are useless within the sect. This is the perfect opportunity to weed them out."

With that, he casually waved his hand, and a tremendous force enveloped Kong Xiong, throwing him out of the yard.

Standing outside the yard, Kong Xiong felt a surge of shock.

He was, after all, a martial arts master, but he couldn’t comprehend nor resist his master’s method.

That feeling, as though the entire world was against you, was it the result of his master’s seclusion over the years?

Kong Xiong steadied his spirits, took a deep breath, and his mood also lifted.

No matter what it was, now, the Banshan Sect had hope.

...

Time swiftly passed, and a month went by in the blink of an eye.

During this month, Richard never showed himself, dedicating his whole heart to analyzing the martial arts evolutionary system.

With many scriptures and Richard’s own vast accumulation of knowledge, he gained a very systematic understanding of the martial arts system.

Martial arts was a highly balanced way of evolution, different from wizards who only needed meditation to enhance spiritual power and then a ceremony to advance. Its evolution was very balanced, with spirit, energy, and physique all advancing equally in the martial arts system; otherwise, one would fall into the "Evil Path."

Under this fundamental concept, martial arts skills were often composed of three parts: an energy cycle, a body refining technique, and a visualization diagram for enhancing spiritual power.

In these, the body refining technique was often integrated with the energy cycle, allowing the energy cycle to achieve the effects of body refining.

This method greatly shocked Richard.

One major issue with physique evolution was how to steadily enhance the physique, similar to meditation.

The current physique evolution mostly relied on various magic potions and primitive physical training. Even if there were methods using energy training, they would certainly be the closely guarded secrets of some wizards. freewebnøvel.com

Now, with the martial arts of the Wild Beastmen, the major weakness of physique evolution was no longer an issue.

Richard murmured to himself, "Perhaps, after conquering this world, Garon the Great Wizard will become the Physique Crown."

Thump thump thump!

Suddenly, a knocking sound came from the door of the courtyard, followed by Kong Xiong’s rough voice coming inside.

"Master, it’s time to attend the Martial Arts Gathering."
