Chapter 250: Chapter 113: Wind Thunder Silent! Transcendental Wind-Thunder Arrow!_1
In the secluded wilderness, Su Changkong stood silently with his bow at the ready.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
All of a sudden, Su Changkong opened his eyes, drew the bow and nocked the arrows, repeatedly pulling the bowstring, stringing the arrows from the quiver one after another in a fluid motion like clouds drifting and water flowing.
Four consecutive arrows whistled through the air like shooting stars toward four different directions, yet eerily silent, making no sound at all.
“Hiss hiss hiss hiss!”
It was only when they struck the trees that they unleashed their tremendous power, piercing through the trunks, and a smaller tree with the girth of a bowl was even severed in half by the arrows.
The arrows flew as fast as the wind and lightning, stirring up a series of whirlwinds in the forest, making it hard to believe that arrows could wield such force!
Wind Thunder Archery (Eight Realms Transcendental 1%)
Su Changkong looked at his attribute panel where the Wind Thunder Archery had reached the Eight Realms. A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
When Wind Thunder Archery reached the Seventh Realm, Su Changkong was able to perform Wind Thunder Linked Beads, and after reaching the Transcendental Eighth Realm, his archery improved even further, attaining the ‘Wind Thunder Silent’ level, where even a full-power shot would make no sound, as if fitted with a silencer, making it difficult for enemies to detect from where the threat was coming!
“This fine iron bow is still somewhat lacking, unable to bring out my full archery skills.”
Looking at the twisted large bow in his hands, Su Changkong couldn’t help but shake his head in resignation.
For a regular Martial Artist in the Qi-Blood Realm, a fine iron bow was definitely enough, but for him it was insufficient to use his full strength, or else the bow would be damaged and the bowstring would snap.
A good bow is indeed very important for an archer!
However, this fine iron bow was currently the best bow he could get, so he could only look forward to obtaining better materials in the future to personally craft a superior one.
“Another three months have passed, and I’ve taken my Wind Thunder Archery to a higher realm. It’s time to leave.”
Su Changkong’s smile faded as he silently thought to himself.
Three months ago, after impersonating Sikong Yong and colluding with the Giant Whale Gang to pass the Gang Leader position to Sikong Zhan, his major task was considered complete. He had been cultivating in seclusion since then, mentoring Sikong Qing in Alchemy.
Now that three months had gone by, Su Changkong’s archery had reached a new level, and the other aspects of his Martial Arts had reached extremely high realms; he wasn’t likely to make any significant progress in a short time. As he stepped into the Qi Blood Seven Transformation, his strength greatly increased, but he also reached a stagnant period.
Su Changkong understood that it was time to leave, to go see Dafeng State City, to seek opportunities for breaking through to higher realms!
Su Changkong returned to the Giant Whale Gang, packed his luggage, and informed Sikong Zhan and Sikong Huang that he would depart the next morning and that there was no need for a send-off.
The Sikong siblings had known for several months that Su Changkong would eventually leave, so they weren’t too surprised. That night, the three of them had dinner together, drinking quite a bit.
Especially Sikong Huang, who drank until her cheeks were flushed, repeatedly looked like she wanted to speak but ended up saying nothing.
And as for the Giant Whale Gang’s Alchemy-related matters, Su Changkong had long since handed them over. In fact, he had been seldom involved in the Gang’s Alchemy for the past half-year, focusing all his energy on concocting Qi-Blood Pills for himself to achieve Qi Blood Metamorphosis.
“In the blink of an eye… I’ve been with the Giant Whale Gang for nearly three years.”
Su Changkong couldn’t help but sigh internally, reflecting on the experiences he had since he first arrived at Ink Forest Prefecture City and joined the Giant Whale Gang, all of which seemed like they had happened just yesterday!
Despite his sentimental feelings, Su Changkong had no intention of stopping his progress; he would continue moving forward, no matter the pace.
Early the next morning, when it was still dark, Su Changkong didn’t disturb anyone. Carrying his bow and arrows and his luggage, he wore a black outfit with a knife at his waist and left his residence alone, heading out of the Giant Whale Gang.
In the early morning hours, the air was still moist with fog.
“Third brother, take care on your journey!”
On the road, Sikong Huang and Sikong Zhan silently watched Su Changkong disappear at the end of the official road, exhaling quietly.
Even though Su Changkong asked them not to see him off, they still quietly watched him go.
“Will he… come back?”
Sikong Huang stood in place for a long time, her face tinged with sadness. She understood that Su Changkong’s departure this time meant he might not return to the Giant Whale Gang for a long time, and in her heart, she felt some regret for not expressing the feelings she had suppressed.
“Sigh…”
Sikong Zhan let out a quiet sigh. He also understood that the extraordinary reliability Su Changkong had shown during this time was very attractive. Not to mention Sikong Huang, even if he had been a woman, he would have been drawn to him.
But sometimes some things cannot be forced; when they are missed, they are missed!
“Let’s go back.” After a while, Sikong Zhan said to Sikong Huang.
“Mhm.” Sikong Huang nodded gently, taking one last look at the distant road where the figure had vanished, before returning to the Giant Whale Gang with Sikong Zhan.
…
“Dafeng State City, here I come!”
Meanwhile, Su Changkong was advancing with a brisk step toward the direction of Dafeng State City.
Dafeng State City, being the most prosperous city in Dafeng State, brought together people and things that were hard to find in smaller places. It was a long journey; even with Su Changkong’s pace, it would take close to ten days.
But Su Changkong was not in a hurry, knowing he would get there sooner or later anyway.
Though it was the season of autumn, the air still held the warmth of summer.
