Divine God Against The Heavens

Chapter 45 Ch 45: Sacred Finger Art

"Lin Hao. His name is Lin Hao. He was the one who bought the Earth Rank martial arts skill and you are already one day late here because it was yesterday when he bought it." That young lady told him with a foxy smile at her face.

"Lin Hao?" Ye Xiao repeated this name and thought, "Who exactly is this Lin Hao? I have already heard his name many times. He is also a renowned genius of the Azure Dragon Country. Even the emperor himself praised him. He also bought the only Earth Rank martial arts skill present here in the Treasure Pavilion."

"Not only his cultivation is extremely high at the Ninth Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm. He also now possess an Earth Rank martial arts skill. Looks like it will be extremely difficult to fight him and win in the competition."

"Umh!, sir, now that we, Treasure Pavilion, does not possess any Earth Rank martial arts skill, are you still going to buy any other martial arts skill from here." That young lady mockingly said and mainly focused on the word 'Earth Rank martial arts skill'.

"Ah! yes. I'll choose from the High Grade Profound Rank martial arts skills present here." Ye Xiao was snapped out from his wonderland where his thinking was wandering.

What Ye Xiao said, his words stuck that young lady again.

? "Humph!, acting arrogant. Let's wait and see how much longer you can act tough here. When you will be unable to pay for the martial arts skill and make a joke out of yourself then I'll see how can you act this arrogant again." That young lady thought.

Ye Xiao walked toward the middle rows of shelves and began to look at all types of High Grade Profound Rank martial arts skill one by one. Here, rows of shelves were very small and each row of shelve had at most twenty to thirty martial arts skill and cultivation techniques.

Middle row of shelve had only fifteen High Grade Profound Rank martial arts skills. It sounds like it is very few in count but in reality only the five great sects and the Imperial Family has the capability to possess this much martial arts skills at once.

Lightning Flash Steps: A lightning type movement skill that specializes in instantaneous burst of speed.

10,000 gold coins.

Raging Flame Fist - A flame attribute martial arts skill that uses flame to fight. Suitable for fire attributed body.

12,000 gold coins.

Angry Dragon Fist - A fist type technique which can deal a very high damage if used to fight. It compresses one's strength all at one point and while attacking, it will release an incredible amount of power.

15,000 gold coins.

...

...

Ye Xiao flipped through all the martial arts technique present here and finally chooses one skill called Sacred Finger Art.

Sacred Finger Art was a damaged martial arts skill. In the complete technique, it has a total of three moves but since this technique was a damaged technique it only has one complete move explained here. But even so, it was graded as a High Grade Profound Rank martial arts skill.

Its first move condensed the spirit energy into one point on the top of the index finger and it had a strong penetrating power and could blast through strong stones and walls with just a casual finger.

It's other two moves was not explained here and it will depend on his luck if he would be able to find the complete skill or not.

He took the Sacred Finger Art martial arts skill and said to the young lady standing a small distance away who was looking at him, "I'll take this martial arts skill."

She took the Sacred Finger Art from him and looked at it.

Sacred Finger Arts?

"Are you sure you want this skill. Even though it is a High Grade Profound Rank skill but it is damaged and its two moves are lost. Its price is also very high at 13,500 gold coins." She frowned at told Ye Xiao.

"Yes, I am sure. I'll buy this Sacred Finger Art." Ye Xiao nodded his head and confirmed her.

"Ok, please pay 13,500 gold coins and this martial art skill will be yours." She curled up her lips and began to wait for Ye Xiao to make a fool of himself.

Ye Xiao waved his hand in air and 13,500 gold coins appear there. He then gave the gold coins to the young lady and took the Sacred Finger Art from her hands and said only two words, "Thank you."

Thank You?

That young lady looked at gold coins in her hand and then looked at Ye Xiao walking away.

Ye Xiao returned to his room in the inn after purchasing the Sacred Finger Art. Now, only one day was left before the beginning of the competition and he has to comprehend the first move of the Sacred Finger Art which is the only move left in this art in one day time.

After returning he ordered his food and after eating he again walked out toward the direction of a forest.

It was known as the Cloudsmoke Forest. It is said that when one goes certain distance deeper in this forest, he or she will encounter with a large amount of smoke like fog. That is why this forest is named as Cloudsmoke Forest. There is also a saying that if one goes even deeper than the distance where one will encounter with these smoke like fog, there is a high probability of seventy percent that he or she will not be able to return ever.

Ye Xiao was thinking of practicing the first move of the Sacred Finger Art here in the vicinity of the Cloudsmoke Forest and try to comprehend its essence as soon as possible so that he can perform well in the competition and get the recognition of higher ups of the five great sects present there.
