Zhang Mo held his Hunter's License, continuously scrolling down the page, looking for the martial arts he needed.
It has to be said.
The cultivation techniques and secret manuals here.
Compared to the First High School Library, their quality was much better.
Basically, the lowest tier were all in the category of Second-Rank martial arts.
And their quality was not low, they were all among the most powerful of their respective ranks.
“Hmm, this Third-Rank technique is not bad.”
Zhang Mo's eyes lit up, resting on a particular technique.
This technique was called Pure Yang Limitless Technique, its attribute was extremely rigid and yang-like, undoubtedly a top-tier Third-Rank technique.
When cultivated to perfection, the inner breath would flow endlessly, like a vast river.
The only drawback was that it was extremely difficult to learn, requiring a large amount of time to polish the foundation and expand the meridians.
But this drawback was extremely suitable for Zhang Mo.
“But this price...”
Seeing the 50 merit points listed behind the technique, Zhang Mo twitched his lips and could only temporarily abandon it.
“But no matter what, I have a target now, all I need to do is accumulate merit points.”
“As for improving my strength, since techniques are not feasible for now, I'll start from other aspects.”
Zhang Mo put down his Hunter's License and murmured softly.
With so many years of life force, it would be a huge waste not to use them.
...
The next morning!
Zhang Mo spent half an hour enjoying a sumptuous beast feast.
Then he went to the First High School Library.
While there were no Third-Rank martial arts here, there were a lot of First-Rank and Second-Rank techniques.
His idea was simple, these low-level general techniques, while meaningless to him, might enhance his strength and defense if they were external techniques, little by little.
By noon, Zhang Mo had finally memorized all the external techniques in the library.
However, he wasn't satisfied, so he went back home and took the beast materials he earned from the exam, exchanging them all for money.
Finally, he plunged into various martial arts shops, starting to collect external techniques.
By dusk, he had basically visited all the martial arts shops.
“Regardless, the harvest is still pretty good.”
Looking at the few secret manuals in his hands, a smile appeared on Zhang Mo's lips.
Counting the secret manuals from the school library, he now possessed over ten external technique manuals.
For example, Iron Shirt, Golden Bell, Dragon-Tiger Body, etc.
Basically, all the low-level external techniques on the market were in his hands.
He couldn't wait to return home!
Zhang Mo started flipping through the manuals one by one, lines of text appearing on the system panel.
Then, Zhang Mo started to continuously pour his life force into these martial arts.
【You have a profound external technique foundation, your physique is like a dragon and elephant, in just one month, you have entered the Iron Shirt technique.】
【One year later, your body becomes even more powerful, Iron Shirt is small accomplished.】
【Ten years later, when you cultivate, your body turns black, Iron Shirt is perfected.】
【Remaining Life Force Stolen: 680 years.】
Zhang Mo felt the changes in his body and nodded with satisfaction.
His judgment was right, even low-level external techniques were useful.
Although his defense and strength didn't increase much, with his current strength, even a slight increase was a significant improvement.
Next!
Zhang Mo calmed his mind and poured life force into the Golden Bell technique.
【Your understanding of the external technique path is extraordinary, after three years of refinement, your Golden Bell has reached great accomplishment.】
【Tenth year, your Golden Bell is finally perfected, your body shines with golden light when you cultivate.】
With the Golden Bell perfected, Zhang Mo didn't stop, but continued to pour life force.
【Two hundred and thirty years later, many of your external techniques have reached perfection, you seem to have an epiphany, and continue to explore the mysteries of external techniques, hoping for a breakthrough.】
【Two hundred and forty years later, you feel the changes in your body when performing external techniques, you are overjoyed and become even more devoted, day and night.】
【Two hundred and ninety years later, you become too ambitious, the qi and blood throughout your body decline, you believe that your previous feelings were all illusions, and you think you wasted your time.】
“......”
Zhang Mo twitched his lips.
Brother, calm down, don't give up!
He gritted his teeth and increased the amount of life force he poured in.
【Three hundred and five years later, you have recuperated your declining qi and blood, restoring it to peak condition, this time you didn't rush for results, but re-examined all the external techniques you mastered.】
【Four hundred and ten years later, after so many years of constant practice, you finally understand the changes happening to your external techniques.】
【Five hundred and twenty years later, you have re-organized the characteristics of all your external techniques, making them explode in the most reasonable way, with a thought, your body transforms, your strength becomes stronger, your defense becomes even more terrifying.】
【Five hundred and twenty-one years later, you have finally integrated the characteristics of all your external techniques into one, comprehending the killing techniques of all external techniques merging into one, it is all-encompassing, you name it Samsara Transformation.】
【Remaining Life Force Stolen: 159 years.】
Finally successful.
Looking at the final words, Zhang Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
This situation of pushing the boundaries, he was truly worried that his life force wouldn't be enough.
“Now that so many external techniques are perfected, my defense and strength have increased by about 20% compared to before.”
He gently clenched his fist, feeling the force like a raging torrent in his body, Zhang Mo was very satisfied.
“As for this Samsara Transformation.”
Zhang Mo took a deep breath, the power of all the external techniques exploded to the limit, he immersed himself in his peak state.
At that moment.
His body's hands, elbows, knees, shoulders, and every other part, all the external techniques perfectly fused together, the muscles all over his body rapidly wriggled.
Next moment!
Zhang Mo's body suddenly expanded, his height of only 1.85 meters instantly surged to two meters, the qi all over his body was like a prehistoric beast, the tangible pressure, made the surrounding air constantly crack.
He looked at his palm, with a slight clench of his fist, it was as if tempered steel was closing.
“In the state of Samsara Transformation, my defense and strength have increased several times over, but the consumption is also extremely terrifying.”
Feeling the consumption of his physical strength, Zhang Mo slightly exhaled, the huge body that exceeded two meters quickly shrunk like a deflating balloon, returning to its normal size.
“However, I'll probably need to find some durable clothes for the future.”
Looking at the tattered pieces of cloth on his body, Zhang Mo smiled helplessly.
