Chapter 367: 250: Waterfall Rolled Back, Martial Arts Heavenly Being!_2
Roar!
It roared towards the sky, emitting a deafening dragon chant as it surged upwards and dived into the dark clouds upstream of the Hukou Waterfall.
The wind and rain became even more fierce between heaven and earth.
The rain that was already pouring became even more torrential, as if a high-pressure water gun was blasting out water from the clouds. In just a short moment, the momentum of the waterfall had increased by a few levels.
“Did you hear that?”
“What was that sound just now?”
“A dragon…dragon chant?”
On the riverbank.
The tourists were all stunned.
Long Xiaoxue was in her dragon soul state, invisible to anyone besides Xu Yang. Those tourists could not see or hear her dragon chant, which was a form of spiritual power on a higher plane.
But they faintly felt a dragon chant resounding in their minds, yet they dared not to confirm it!
Although the existence of martial arts, Daoist skills, and even Yin spirits and malevolent beings had been officially announced, no one had ever mentioned the existence of dragons in this world!
“Great!”
Under the waterfall.
Feeling the tremendous water flow slamming against his body, Xu Yang shouted a word of approval and then moved his thoughts to open the attribute panel of the system in front of him.

“System!”
“Add points for me!”
Xu Yang’s thought gently touched the small “+” sign behind “Great River Sword Manual” in his mind.
“Ding!”
“Merit Points -1000, Great River Sword Manual +1.”
“Ding!”
“Merit Points -1000, Great River Sword Manual +1.”
“Ding…”
Ten system prompts in a row resonated in his mind…
Xu Yang could rely on the waterfall’s torrent to cultivate the second level of the “Great River Sword Manual”. However, after spending more than 20 minutes and running 700 kilometers, he had only managed to break through to the second level. What use was that?
He intended to utilize the system and directly step into the third or even the fourth level of the “Great River Sword Manual” in one go!
Zing!
A surge of sword aura and essence shot up from Xu Yang’s body!
In that instant, even the raging waterfall seemed to have been split apart by this formidable sword aura and essence.
This scene was captured by the tourists.
Someone saw the source of the sword aura and exclaimed, “He’s alive… that expert is alive!”
“What do you mean by ‘that expert’? He has a name! He’s the current Sect Leader of the Jingming Sect, Northwest Hammer King Master Xu… Didn’t people on the internet find out about his identity?”
“So amazing!”
“Is Master Xu a Sword Immortal?”
“Wait, didn’t you just say ‘Northwest Hammer King’? If Master Xu is the Hammer King, why would he know sword techniques?”
The tourists’ discussions grew louder and more animated.
They recorded this moment and uploaded it to the internet.
“Great River Sword Aura, Great River Sword Aura… So that’s how it is!”
“The second level of the Great River Sword Manual: attained!”
Under the waterfall.
As the “system added points,” Xu Yang’s sword essence rapidly transformed into the “Great River Sword Essence,” and the sword aura all over his body quickly changed as well. In his heart, a sudden enlightenment rose, as if a swordsman who had practiced by the water for decades had suddenly comprehended the depths of the second level of the “Great River Sword Manual” in a flash!
Zing!
With a single slash, he unleashed a magnificent Great River sword aura that soared into the sky like a white rainbow.
The fierce wind in the sky scattered under the blow of this sword!
Xu Yang was not satisfied yet. He moved his thoughts and issued another instruction –
“System, keep adding points!”
“Ding!”
“Merit Points -3000, Great River Sword Manual +1.”
“Ding”
“Merit Points -3000, Great River Sword Manual +1.”
“Ding…”
Just now, before the second level of the “Great River Sword Manual” had been completely attained, upgrading it only required 1000 merit points. But now, after reaching the second level, the merit points required had increased fivefold to 3000 points!
However, for Xu Yang, who had over 400,000 merit points, this was nothing.
He spent a total of 60,000 points to upgrade the “Great River Sword Manual” 20 times. The Great River sword aura in his body became increasingly purified, and his comprehension of the “Great River Sword Manual” became even deeper.
“System, continue upgrading!”
“Ding!”
“Merit Points -3000, Great River Sword Manual +1.”
“Ding…”
With a single thought, Xu Yang spent another 30,000 points and upgraded the “Great River Sword Manual” ten more times.
In the next moment, it seemed like some shackles within him shattered.
He stretched out his Bi Shui Sword…
Woosh!
The waterfall that had been cascading downwards suddenly began to flow backwards, following the imposing Great River sword aura, and surged into the sky.
Xu Yang sheathed his sword.
Standing on the turbulent river water, still being drenched by the water that had been shot into the sky before falling back down, he sensed the changes within himself and couldn’t help but exclaim, “Is this… the Martial Arts Heavenly Being Realm?”
Yes!
As soon as he had entered the third level of the “Great River Sword Manual,” Xu Yang, who had never practiced martial arts before, had leaped straight into the “Martial Arts Heavenly Being Realm.” His whole body’s blood and qi had become even more vigorous.
