Undefeated God of War
chapter-127

Translated by: Berrrybunz

The shopkeeper studied each and every ingredient carefully, but stopped at the skin of the Star Spirit Snake. Yaya skinned it perfectly. The entire snake skin was skinned nicely as a whole piece. On top of it were exquisite bronze scales that clinked every time they were moved.

The shopkeeper gasped: “This snake skin is in the best condition I’ve ever seen for a sixth level snake. It should be a Star Spirit Snake that had absorbed ancient martial spirits and turned into such a weird looking snake. Although the spirit nucleus is not worth much, its skin’s quality is much better than ordinary Star Spirit Snakes. This snake skin, I’m willing to buy for three hundred thousand star coins. For the pair of snake’s teeth, I’ll buy them for twenty thousand star coins. For the snake tendon, it would be fifty thousand spirit coins. In total, it would be three hundred and seventy thousand star coins. What do you think?”

Three hundred and seventy star coins. This price was much more than he expected. Without saying another word, he simply agreed: “OK!”

“Refreshing!” the shopkeeper was overjoyed, then handed a star coin card: “Why don’t you head over to other shops to check out the prices. My shop is usually reasonable. I hope that when you have other reaps, you’ll come back to my shop.”

“No problem!” Tang Tian nodded straightforwardly and took the star coin card then asked: “Within the Three Spirits City, which shop is more reliable?”

The shopkeeper was familiar with Three Spirit City. He replied: “Treasure Card Abode. Although it is more expensive, they have the good stuff.”

Thinking about the last time when the Bronze Mechanical Ostrich was injured, Yu Bao also mentioned this shop’s name. Seems like Treasure Card Abode was quite reputable.

Tang Tian nodded and cupped his fist towards the shopkeeper: “Thanks a lot.”

“You’re welcome.” the shopkeeper bowed.

Tang Tian left for the Treasure Card Abode after a rewarding journey. The Treasure Card Abode was easy to find in Three Spirits City. Without spending too much time, he entered.

Indeed it was a luxurious, Treasure Card Abode, it could not be compared to the ruined shop that Sai Lei had.

A light incense smell, so fragrant. A velvety sofa and a tea table with tea and desserts. The tea was still steaming hot. The staff smiled and welcomed him in beautiful cheongsam dresses. Tang Tian was worried that if they were not careful enough, they might tear the cheongsam dresses that they wore.

“Welcome.”

The ladies voice were sweet and gentle. It was so intimate it made people loosen their guard.

Tang Tian looked around and scanned the prices of the soda, the surcharge of the tea, the paycheques of the beautiful girls and worried if he had enough star rocks in his pocket.

“May I help you?” A lady walked over in hot pink cheongsam.

“I’m here to see if there are any suitable spirit cards.” Tang Tian did not feel diffident. He was just curiously looking around. It was the first time he was in such a luxurious shop. But he had no idea he had already exposed himself as a country bumpkin.

But even if he knew, Tang Tian, this young lad, would not mind.

The staff did not despise Tang Tian because of his country bumpkin face. They had seen the world and their faces were still plastered with smiles: “May I ask what kind you are looking for?”

Tang Tian had the intention to buy a spirit general card. It was not an abrupt thought.

Be it in the Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures, or the battle he had fought today, he found out his weak spot, True Power. He had broke through to the fifth level, and his True Power was stronger than before. But in terms of other aspects, it was limited.

“Is there a Five Heavenly Dragons? Or a fifth level Crane-Style Qi Manual?”

These two cards were what Tang Tian needed the most right now. Whether it were Five Heavenly Dragons or Crane Body Energy. They were very useful.

The staff was not surprised. If someone could shop around here, they must not be easily chased away with an ordinary spirit general card. She was very familiar with the cards in the shop. Very quickly, she could link up the pieces: “Yes, we have the golden grade Five Heavenly Dragons. The price is 6 million star coins. I can promise you that you’ll be able to comprehend the Heavenly Dragon Energy. We also have a rank five Crane Style Qi Manual. But it is silver grade and only requires three hundred thousand star coins.”

Tang Tian felt odd. The two prices were extremely different, but after that, he understood.

One of them was golden and the other was silver. On top of that, the Crane Body Energy was hard to cultivate. It was natural that the two were a world apart. But to Tang Tian, the Crane Body Energy was much more useful than the Heavenly Dragon Energy. After he mastered ripples, the sharpness of the Crane Body Energy was much more suited to him than the explosive Heavenly Dragon Energy.

“I would like the rank five Crane Style Qi Manual.” Tang Tian took out more than half of his money straightforward.

He was overjoyed. Star coins were indeed fierce. They could even get him the Crane Sect’s spirit general card. They were impressive.

After the transaction, Tang Tian went back to the base camp immediately.

Back at the base camp, Tang Tian did not use the card instantly, instead, he sat to meditate and recuperate

When he opened his eyes again, he was in his perfect state. He took out the rank five Crane Style Manual Qi’s spirit general card and combined the True Power together. Instantly, an indescribable feeling took over his heart. There were several complicate routes that appeared in his mind.

Tang Tian was familiar with such situations. Carefully, he cleared all the comprehensions within the spirit general card. But very quickly, he frowned.

Something was not right!

Unknowingly, he always felt such comprehensions were twisted in several aspects.

He used the Crane Body Energy the most, and had a profound comprehension of it. There were certain aspects he might not be able to explain clearly, but he could always sense if it was right or wrong. Suddenly, Tang Tian’s heart dropped. He suddenly thought, Old Fart Wei once mentioned that the Crane Body Energy had been lost for a long time. Could it be…

He casted those complicated comprehensions away and started studying the routes with his True Power.

Comprehension differed from one individual to another. But with True Power, it would never change. After a few days and weeks of trying with true power, Tang Tian realised all the comprehension within the spirit general card was wrong.

He attempted it again and again. His True Power would gather and disperse all of a sudden. He kept trying to form a crane.

Three whole days, Tang Tian stayed behind closed doors to cultivate the Crane Style Qi Manual.

Suddenly, glistening eyes appeared in the dark. Tang Tian’s True Power rose and without thinking, a whistle came through his throat just like the cries of the crane!

Tang Tian jumped and laughed.

“Fifth level Crane Body Energy! Hahaha! This is amazing!”

“This feels awesome!”

“Waow, I’m indeed a godlike young lad!”

“Aye aye aye, Crane Body Energy, I’m gonna break the shit out of you!”

……

Sai Lei got a shock from Tang Tian’s sudden wails and howls. Her hand trembled and she pressed the wrong button. Instantly, she raged and started throwing things around: “You idiot! Bastard!”

One hour later.

Tang Tian crawled out from the Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures bruised. His face was ashen and his eyes were blazing with fire. He challenged the Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures thinking that since he had the Crane Body Energy, he would be fine. He never thought he would still get stepped on by number 9!

Bastard!

“I’ve told you. It’s useless. You need to experience what it’s like to fall down. The ripples are definitely useful, but if you just rely on strength to fight against strength, then they’re both similarly high level techniques. Of course, with your fundamentals now, you want to understand how to fight strength against strength, which is still quite difficult. However, there’s still a slight hope in this aspect…”

Bing’s tone was obviously mocking him.

Tang Tian’s face was as black as a pot. He was already not some generous person. To fall down in the same pit twice, he was already humiliated. To fall down in a the same pit countless times, that was utterly embarrassing and humiliating. He had never experienced so many failures in a row, and what was even harder to accept was that up till now, he still could not find a way out.

Asshole!

Tang Tian gritted his teeth. All this humiliation he accumulated was set ablaze. All his rationality was being burnt.

Bastard…

How could I not defeat these bastards…

If I cannot even defeat these bastards, how was I going to make it through the road?

If I cannot defeat these bastards, how was I going to save Qian Hui?

If I cannot defeat these bastards, how can I become the strongest martial artist?

If I cannot defeat these bastards…

How could I!

“Go and die! All of you bastards!”

Tang Tian eyes were suddenly painted blood red. His face was sly and in his hands there were three more cards. All of them were golden, shimmering gold ranked cards!

These were the cards he got when he traded with Jing Hao in the energy cracks while exchanging the Training Spirit Device. These three gold ranked cards were all rank five. [Great Monument Palm], [Tan Tui] and [Scattering Vortex].

(TN: i decided to change Scattering Whirlpool to Scattering Vortex, please take note!)

Just as Bing was surprised, Tang Tian used all three of his cards without saying another word.

With a roar, Tang Tian rushed back into the Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures.

“This rascal…” Bing was pale.

Bang bang bang bang, Tang Tian was being thrown out again, all bruised.

Without second words, he meditated!

One hour later, Tang Tian jumped up, raised his arms and shouted. Then, he rushed back into the Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures.

“Come on!”

Bang bang bang bang, Tang Tian was once again thrown out of the Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures.

Tang Tian climbed up and started meditating without saying a word.

One hour later, the roars rang again.

……

Twenty times

……

Forty times.

……

Bing looked on at the insane Tang Tian like a wooden block. In his lifetime as a military officer he had never once met such a stubborn, crazy man.

He had met proud and egoistic rascals, met those insane perverted rascals. Those rascals all managed to pass through the Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures in the end, but there was not one who would used such desperate methods to enter Chamber of the Eighteen Bronze Figures.

That was right! Attack!

Without rest, he attacked with ferociousness.

Not once!

Was this guy ever discouraged? Did he not know what feeling dejected was? Did he not know the thing called pain? Did he not know fatigue? Did he not know he still had a lot of time in front of him?

There was absolutely no need for such desperate measures!

As long as he persevered, he would defeat them! Everyone who had walked this journey came out this way. You were weaker than them from the start, so it is natural it would be harder. You would need to spend more time than them. It was normal!

Why did you… have to…

They are just a bunch of bronze figurines…

Unless…… when facing the bronze figurines… you hated failure more than anything?

Bing looked at Tang Tian in a daze. That sly, stubborn, exhausted, bruised face.

Such a young face, it should have a pair of blazing eyes.

The young lad’s blazing eyes shone right into Bing’s eyes.

Subconsciously, he could not help but become absent-minded.
