Chapter 9: A monster beyond common sense

<Congratulations, the player who has become the Lightning Emperor, the player of the White Lotus, the player of the Fire Queen, or the players who have cleared the Graveyard of Skeletons>

The announcement in the sky shocked all the players around the world, not because they were the first to clear the Graveyard of Skeletons, but because of the cooperation of these three.

The three of them were from the inheritance families, and there were no precedents for the cooperation of the inheritance families because of the fierce competition between them, but now something happened that was almost impossible.

"Damn!, Three of the top ten Inheritance Families have teamed up!" A player exclaimed in surprise and anger, because they would get nothing if the Inheritance Families united.

"Maybe they decided to form an alliance to take down Player Yuan," a person spoke after quickly analyzing the situation.

"It is possible" - the players begin to agree on this possibility after the player has spoken.

The internet and game forums were in a state of chaos and excitement because of the cooperation of the three players, and their alliance was discussed hundreds of times by players in a few hours.

Fortunately for those who love gossip, a new announcement appeared when the excitement began to disappear, which excited the players to discuss again.

<Congratulations, player Xiong Lu has obtained the world's first Spirit-rank equipment>

While the players were making a fuss about the announcement, Yuan had arrived at the Magical Beast Hill.

"Then who should I fight?" Yuan Xiaohua asked as he scanned his surroundings.

"Brother Yuan has to fight a jade frog from the ninth level of the Spirit Apprentice Realm," Xiao Hua said, pointing at a frog sitting by the lake.

Yuan nodded, took out the Blood Sword, and advanced towards the frog, which sensed the killing intent unleashed by the sword and looked at Yuan cautiously.

'What should I do now?' - Yuan thought as he watched the frog - 'I learned to use the sword in the dojo, but I doubt it will work against a giant toad. I think using the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike would be too much.'

"Alright, let's use the old method." Yuan muttered as he closed his eyes and recalled Xian Zhugang and Ming Li's fight. "Watch, remember, learn, perform."

"Bloody Sword Strike!!" Yuan exclaimed as he sent bloody slashes towards the jade frog.

Well, if Xian Zhugang was here, he would have been surprised, because Yuan's movement was completely like Li Ming.

<You have learned the Bloody Sword Strike>

_

< Bloody Sword Strike >

Class: Earth

< Perfection: 1 >

< Description: Consumes 900 Qi, must use a sword to activate, a technique from the Blood Sect>

_

<Congratulations, player Yuan has become the first person to learn an Earth rank skill>

<Congratulations. Player Yuan has become the first person to kill the Elite Boss: Jade Frog.>

After the jade toad died, Xiao Hua lunged at Yuan and asked - "Where did Brother Yuan learn this technique from?"

"Oh, that's what I learned from seeing a person named Ming Li" - Yuan said with a slight smile that turned into a sarcastic smile in the second part - "I am good at imitating the latter."

< Structure Activated ?????? >

<The jade frog's soul was devoured>

<The Jade Frog Soul has been refined into Spiritual Strength>

<+100 Spiritual Strength>

Upon seeing the system notification, Yuan quickly prepared for the pain and memories.

"Nothing happened," Yuan mumbled, because apart from the increase in his spiritual strength, nothing happened, neither pain nor a torrent of strange memories.

"Brother Yuan!!" - Xiao Hua exclaimed, looking at Yuan Yuan as if she was looking at a ghost.

"What happened?" Yuan asked innocently, not knowing that he had caused Xiao Hua's shock.

"Brother Yuan, are you alright?" Xiao Hua asked anxiously as she examined Yuan closely.

"I'm fine, did something happen?" Yuan asked in bewilderment, not knowing why Xiao Hua was worried.

"If Brother Yuan is okay, then what happened to you, then your spiritual strength will increase." Xiao Hua asked as she looked at Yuan anxiously.

It might be that Yuan Yuan didn't know, but the reason why Xiao Hua was worried was that someone might have taken over Yuan's body because it was something that happened so often in the Heavens Most High.

"Ah, it's because of my physique that devoured the jade toad's soul and turned it into spiritual energy," Yuan said casually, because Xiao Hua was his maid, and he knew her character, so he decided that she wouldn't harm him.

"What is the name of Brother Yuan's physique?" Xiao Hua asked in bewilderment, as she had never heard of such a strange physique.

"I don't know," Yuan said, walking over to the frog's carcass, taking out its core and storing the carcass in the storage ring.

Xiao Hua was speechless because of Yuan's indifference.

"!!!" - Xiao Hua widened her eyes in shock upon seeing Yuan Swallowing a Jade Frog Core.

"Brother Yuan, let the core out quickly." Xiao Hua exclaimed anxiously as she lunged at Yuan.

"Hah." Yuan was surprised and looked at Xiao Hua puzzledly "What is it, Xiao Hua?"

<Activate the Heaven Refinement Physique>

<1,300,000 qi have been refined from the Jade Frog Beast Core>

<You have absorbed enough Qi to break through>

<You have reached the eighth level of a spirit cultivator>

< All stats +900 >

"..." - Xiao Hua with wide eyes stared at Biyuan who was looking at the system's notice in shock.

'When did you eat a monster core?' - Yuan thought in bewilderment, as he didn't remember doing such a thing.

Yuan didn't know that the moment he grabbed the monster core, his body moved by itself and swallowed the core while he was thinking what to do with it.

"Did Brother Yuan refine a Beast Core and break through in an instant?" Xiao Hua asked, looking at Yuan in disbelief.

"Yeah, it seems to be the effect of my physique." Yuan replied to Xiao Hua's question and was extremely happy that he wouldn't need to sit for hours to make a breakthrough.

"Brother Yuan's unknown physique seems to be very powerful," Xiao Hua said, looking at Yuan with curiosity, because she hadn't heard of a physique that could refine the souls and cores of monsters.

"It's not what you think, because my Soul Refinement Physique is different from my Beast Core Refinement Physique," Yuan said simply when he heard Xiao Hua and corrected her mistake.

"Legendary Dual Physique." Xiao Hua muttered in disbelief, because she knew more about the legendary Dual Physique than ordinary people because the Asura Clan Master had it. Although the Physiques weren't mentioned in detail, she didn't know what the Asura Clan Master's Physique was, but it was the Asura Clan's. One of the clans most knowledgeable about the legendary dual physique.

"Does Brother Yuan know the name of his afterlife physique and what grade it is?" Xiao Hua asked after taking a few deep breaths to calm her shock.

"It's a Supreme Grade Heaven Refinement Physique." Yuan said after thinking for a moment to recall what was mentioned of the paper Elder Song had given him. "Do you know this Physique?"

"No, Xiao Hua had never heard of a physique like this before." - Xiao Hua shook her head and looked at Yuan in a new light, because with his talent and her support, Yuan would control the nine heavens so easily that he didn't even need to work hard to achieve this goal.

Xiao Hua didn't know that the heavens wouldn't allow such a thing, so she was going to try to kill Yuan when she had the chance.
