Martial Research Master

Chapter 57: Lin Zhong

Long Tao was elated to be able to create his first life-weapon. The sword was radiating a dominating might and Long Tao was quite sure that it was stronger than the set of Level 2 weapons he got from the royal clan. Incredible, it was to see such a miraculous art which could give rise to a weapon that was in exhaustible and indestructible too. Long Tao sure as hell wanted to see what the real power limit of this weapon was, but when he tried to rise up, he felt a sudden extreme tiredness and his body jolted down. The task of this creation was extremely tiring. Long Tao’s face was also pale due to the utilisation of such large amount of Blood essence. Long Tao took out the resources, blood composites and numerous bodies of grade 3 beast, which he then used to start recovering his blood essence. Long Tao calculated a rough estimate of resources required and he was quite sure that he won’t be able to create more than 5 weapons. Any more than that and Long Tao would have to use resources from the Manor vault of the Crimson lord manor. He didn’t want to use it at the moment because Long Tao followed a path of calculative consumption and renewing of resources. Long Tao was to save up for the creation of his own force and he was to start saving up. Long Tao was creating his own separate reserves that he creates by his own efforts. Long Tao managed to recover his blood essence and Qi fats enough with the help of the QI and bodies of beast with addition to the blood composites. The blood composites were a great resource for Long Tao’s path of cultivation. After recovering, Long Tao took a short break. His power is being increasing at a steady pace and hence he wanted to rest and re-capitulate the whole situation of his.

The next weapon he started creating was Saber. Saber intent was also on the advance level and it was also a weapon that Long Tao practiced for a long time. Now saber intent can be infused and used according to the shape of saber Long Tao wanted to create. What Long Tao needed to decide now was the shape of the saber. The generally flat and straight, but some time a curve is present. What Long Tao was to create a saber which matched his usability. Hence the saber he designed had a long, slightly curved blade, which had a varied wideness to itself. Long Tao’s estimation stated that this shape would be the most efficient to give out the maximum output of power from Long Tao. After the diagram was formally present, Long Tao started creation process of the saber. The first thing done was the QI concentration. The shaping came next and then materialisation. The saber was a bit bigger z, volumetrically, than the sword and hence took more amount of Blood essence to get created. This time, Long Tao’s face was visibly pale. But he knew he couldn’t stop at the moment. So, he started the infusion of intent into it. After a long period of time he was finally able to complete the process of creation. Long Tao now had managed to obtain his second life weapon. This time Long Tao lost consciousness on his own. He was too exhausted, both physically and mentally due to the continuous creation. He woke up later and resumed the creation process. Long Tao had to create the first five weapons before exiting the retreat.

Currently outside the Black-buck squad’s dwelling, three lieutenants were roaming. They wanted to test the waters at the moment by sending spies into the dwelling of the black-buck squad. But to their astonishment they found out that none of the people they sent were able to even come out alive. This was not because of the killing of the new Vice-leader of the squad, but because of the formation that suddenly appeared outside the dwelling of the Black-bucks. The formation was a killing /defence formation with automated frame work. No figure was visible to be operating it. That meant that it had the ability to self-rejuvenate itself. How could the Black-buck manage to get such a powerful formation built outside their squad house. There was no news of a formation master appearing in these regions, which meant that someone from the squad drew it up. The back-ground check of all the members was thoroughly done and none of them seem to have knowledge of formation. Which only left one option. The formation was drawn by Long Tao himself. This was bad news from them. Long Tao being this capable was not expected. He was already as powerful as a peak of mid-level Qi master. He was now breaking through to QI master. In addition, that he was so proficient in formation, that was able to fend off and kill Qi masters. It meant that the formation was of 2nd level at least. Soon enough the capabilities of Long Tao will come to light before the top brass and a formation master is a very respected and sought-after job. He could even be recalled by the royal clan to help them with their formations and could even be appointed to a special position in the military so as to make use of his abilities. They needed to finish this threat now or in future, they wouldn’t even have a corpse remaining. But they couldn’t do anything. They didn’t have the required power to break through the formation. They could only wait for the Wing-commander to return.

In a separate region, a young and old man couple was sitting opposite to each other having food. “You are to remain alert of the new brat of the Black-buck squad. If he got the support of that man, he is surly quite powerful, capable and resourceful. Don’t be overly arrogant. Although I can stop that man from interfering, he does the same to me. I won’t be able to interfere with the tussle either. I don’t know why he was assigned to the black-buck squad even after having such great capabilities, but whoever did it was at least higher in authority than me because I couldn’t uncover the order format.” The young man stayed silent for a period of time but then said in a n aggressive tone” Is father implying that I have to let go?”. The old man sighed “Boy. Your talent is much higher than mine and hence I gave my best to raise you with every resource you could possibly need. You need to understand that I am not willing to lose you, now that I have lost your mother already. You are safe as long as you are more powerful than the enemy. But the brat who is your opponent is no small matter. I have already seen the visual reports of all the observers. He beat your cousin without even utilising his Qi, just by his physical strength and he was still in Qi child realm at that time. From the description, I also deduce that he didn’t sue the full power of his capabilities. Which meant that physically he is able to contend with a peak Mid-level Qi master. What happens when such a figure start using QI. He could at least compete with High level Qi master while still being in Qi child. Now he is breaking through and the lieutenants are not being able top even disturb his process due to the formation he drew. It means that he is even adept in the art of formations. Do you know the amount of importance he will get soon enough from both the army and the royal clan? Handle the matter carefully.”.

Long Tao was now busy with the creation the spear. With the spear, the requirement of essence was even more, and Long Tao collapsed instantly after the creation. He had just completed the third weapon. The next two were going to use even more quantity of Blood essence and Qi. Long Tao continued with his creation and Soon enough he was onto the next weapon.

Long Tao was going to make the halberd next. Long Tao designed the shape of halberd to be more like a scythe. What Long Tao did this time was curve the end of the halberd to a real long and broad shape. The strike from such a weapon as going to be lethal. The next one on the line was off course the hammer. Long Tao wanted to make a big hammer with long handle, which can be used in both forging and fighting. If made well Long Tao would no longer have to worry about getting a pair of forging equipment and will be set for life. The two weapons were made after a pro-longed process. Long Tao was now extremely weak and asked the keeper to help infuse Qi within his body. After such a continuous drain and replenish, Long Tao’s lifeforce had grown up to a very big extent. Long Tao was very proficient in the QI utilisation now due to the continuous creation. Five weapons were floating in front of him. Long Tao first recovered his lost blood essence, before he did the last phase of the Weapon Tempering art, which was to infuse the weapon into the acupoint. This was going to be very painful and torturous, because the accommodation, and continuous refining due the first infusion is going to be hellish. But Long Tao was not scared of pain. He was someone who had practiced the 12 forges of Death, throughout his cultivation path until now. Just how tyrannical was his real body. He couldn’t even start to imagine that. The infusion process started, and loud screams were beginning to leak out of Long Tao’s room. But who would dare disturb the tyrannical dictator of the group? They were scared of death due to the interruption. Long Tao clenched his teeth and bared with the process. HE was not even sitting, lying in pain while the process continued.

Currently outside of the Dwelling, a group of people appeared. This group was led by none other than the young man who was conversing with the old guy. “You guys are to start attacking the formation. I will break it at the perfect moment. Let’s see how capable this new Vice-leader of the Black-buck squad is.”. the group of lieutenants started attacking the formation. Finally, after a long period of time, a zone of less concentration was created where Lin Zhong attacked and finally the formation was busted into. But just t as the formation was busted a figure came into view of the whole group. Long Tao was currently standing in front of the entrance and said with a calm voice” To what do I owe the pleasure of visit by Wing-commander Lin Zhong.”
