God-Like Extraction

Chapter 135: Return With A Full Load

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There is danger in this third chamber?

Su Jingxing was surprised and bewildered.

Danger in a treasure chamber?

What kind of treasure could threaten him?

Some kind of poisonous gas?

Fatal pathogens?

Biochemical bombs?

Su Jingxing couldn’t figure it out. He took two steps back and carefully examined the alloy door of this third chamber.

And he noticed something strange. The alloy door of the third chamber was exceptionally thick and the hole on the door was very small.

The hole was not covered using glass either, instead, it was hollowed out, filled with small holes.

The air outside could mix with the air inside?

This meant that whatever was inside wasn’t poisonous gas or pathogens.

At least it wasn’t gas or something small. It was a big fellow.

Big fellow…

“Could it be a Savage Beast?”

Su Jingxing pondered. Powerful Savage Beasts could indeed threaten him.

Even martial artists in the top ranks had Savage Beasts that they were no match for, let alone for martial artists in the middle ranks.

If the Shi Family had really raised a Savage Beasts and placed it in the treasure chamber…

Hold on!

“That’s not right. A Savage Beast is a beast. It’s impossible for it to not have a heartbeat and no breathing.”

Su Jingxing’s secret ability, Advanced Hearing, had been activated the whole time, and he had been listening to everything around him.

If there was a Savage Beast in the third chamber, it was impossible not to hear its heartbeat and breathing.

Unless…

“It’s dead!”

Su Jingxing’s expression changed. He took two steps back and landed a punch on the alloy door.

The terrifying force forcefully broke open the door.

The interior of the empty room immediately came into sight.

At the very least, standing at the entrance and looking in, he did not see anything.

The dark environment did not affect Su Jingxing.

“There’s nothing inside?”

Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows.

Just then——

Hu~

A gust of bloody wind coupled with a ferocious aura suddenly swept out from the third chamber.

The speed was extraordinary. The moment it pounced out of the darkness, there wasn’t even a shadow.

Or rather, it was a shadow itself!

Boom!

There was an explosion in the air and energies danced wildly.

Su Jingxing, who had been prepared for this, threw a punch. A million catties of force struck the black shadow that was pouncing towards him. With a muffled sound, the black shadow was directly thrown back and shattered into several pieces as it collapsed to the ground.

[Parasitic Worm Zombie discovered. Would you like to extract it?]

“Yes!”

Su Jingxing responded inwardly. Standing outside the door, he was both shocked and relieved.

Corpse Puppet!

The “treasure” in the third chamber was actually a Corpse Puppet.

The Shi Family were truly lunatics. They even dared to tame Corpse Puppets.

Although Corpse Puppets were easy to create, such a mutated species controlled by the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect was neither a Savage Beast nor a Spiritual Beast. They would not be tamed at all.

The only way was to forcibly detain and control them.

And once there was a slip-up, the opponent would not be the only one to die. The person himself would also die a miserable death.

The Shi Family were complete lunatics. Not only did they forcefully imprison the Corpse Puppet, they also locked it in the base and placed it in the treasury vault.

What? Were they treating the Corpse Puppet as the security guard of the treasury vault?

If an enemy were to invade, they would release the Corpse Puppet to attack their target?

Su Jingxing found this hard to swallow.

Since the Shi Family dared to place the Corpse Puppet in the treasury vault, it could only be said that they were confident enough.

No wonder he did not hear any breathing or heartbeat. It turned out that the third chamber contained a Corpse Puppet!

Hu~

Another gust of bloody wind came from the treasure chamber and charged at Su Jingxing with lightning speed.

Boom!

Su Jingxing punched out again, unleashing more than a hundred years of true energy cultivation and releasing a million catties of strength to strike the black shadow.

With a dull thud, the shadow was shattered and fell to the ground, splitting into several pieces.

Su Jingxing extracted a card.

Another Corpse Puppet!

In the third chamber, two…

Hu~

Hu!

A foul wind ravaged the air.

Two more black shadows leaped out of the open chamber and pounced on Su Jingxing in a flash.

The pungent smell of blood and a manic aura enveloped Su Jingxing.

Boom! Boom!

Two dull explosions sounded almost at the same time.

Just like before, the two black shadows were smashed into pieces by the force of a million catties.

Su Jingxing extracted the cards and felt inexplicably happy.

The Shi Family’s madness had benefited him today.

Corpse Puppets were indeed a great threat. Once they escaped, the damage they would cause to ordinary people and martial artists in the lower ranks was unimaginable.

However, since the zombie died in Su Jingxing’s hands, the cards extracted from them would most likely be Martial Arts Practice Cards.

The Martial Arts Practice Card was good stuff. Su Jingxing was in need of it.

In the third chamber, the more Corpse Puppet imprisoned, the greater Su Jingxing’s chances of obtaining Martial Arts Practice Cards.

This was delivering benefits and warmth to him.

Su Jingxing really wanted to kill dozens and even tens of Corpse Puppets.

Unfortunately, after waiting outside the door for a while, no more Corpse Puppets rushed out.

Su Jingxing walked in slowly. With his secret ability, Night Vision, he took in everything in the chamber in one glance.

There were indeed only four Corpse Puppets.

Before this, these four Corpse Puppets probably had chains, arm clamps, and other tools tied to them.

This was because four alloy shackles were installed on the wall on the left side of the secret chamber. They could separately immobilize the Corpse Puppets’ heads and limbs.

The shackles were now released, it must have been Shi Zhiluo’s doing.

Before Su Jingxing came down to the third level, he had already unlocked the shackles on the Corpse Puppets.

If Su Jingxing hadn’t been alert and had entered the chamber from the start, he would have suffered some extent of injury from the Corpse Puppets’ sneak attacks.

How ruthless!

The people of the Shi Family were indeed crazy.

Su Jingxing scanned the entire secret chamber and carefully checked every corner. After making sure that he did not miss anything and that there was nothing else, he turned around and left.

As he moved, he took out the four cards he had extracted, held them in his hand, and read the information.

Martial Arts Practice Card! Martial Arts Practice Card! Martial Arts Practice Card! Martial Arts Practice Card!

Pretty good. All four cards were Martial Arts Practice Cards. In addition, every card contained a very long practice time, exceeding 10 years.

Clearly, the Shi Family had imprisoned and controlled these four Corpse Puppets for quite some time.

Shi Zhiluo wanted to pull Su Jingxing along with him before he died. It could only be said that he had miscalculated.

Four Martial Arts Practice Cards could allow Su Jingxing to grasp many martial arts.

Therefore, the third chamber gave a good harvest.

The next room was the fourth secret chamber.

Just in case, Su Jingxing first listened for any stirs in the chamber, then kept a distance and broke the door savagely.

He waited for a moment, but nothing happened. Then, he slowly walked in.

He lifted his head and scanned his surroundings. What he saw were made-to-measure bookshelves.

Yet there were only a few books on the shelves.

Su Jing walked over, picked up some of the few ones, and opened them.

Martial arts, they are all martial arts!

The fourth chamber contained martial arts.

Although there weren’t many of them, only about 20, these martial arts were not bad.

Among them were the Shi Family’s ultimate arts, the Cold Smoke Mantra, Split Eagle Claw, and the Nine Yin Soul-Shattering Sword. The secret manuals for these three martial arts were complete editions.

Su Jingxing took a few casual glances and put them all into his palm space with satisfaction.

Even though he didn’t practice any martial arts with yin and cold attributes, that wouldn’t stop him from using them for reference.

So far, Su Jingxing had collected a number of martial arts. Previously, he was just subconsciously storing them. Now that he thought about it carefully, he might be able to study and epitomize them to create his own martial art.

The chances of success weren’t high, but what if?

What if it worked?

Su Jingxing did not forget that there was a function card like the Deduction Card.

As long as he created a complete set of martial arts theories, there was a high chance of success if he were to deduce it using the Deduction Card!

Therefore, Su Jingxing would take all kinds of martial arts as long as they were complete.

Whether he needed it or not was another matter. In any case, he would simply take them first.

The martial arts that the Shi Family had placed in the secret chamber were all stored in his palm space.

At the end, Su Jingxing found a precious secret manual for protection in a secret compartment.

Flipping it open…

“Blood Drop Heretic Art?”

Heretic art!

Su Jingxing narrowed his eyes and picked up this secret manual with a dark red cover. Holding his breath, he flipped it open.

Moments later, his breathing quickened.

That’s right, this Blood Drop Heretic Art was a heretic art, the martial art that Shi Zhinie had cultivated.

Using blood as a catalyst, if successfully refined, one could condense the Martial Art True Intent of the Blood Wyrm and advance to the third-grade.

It was precisely because Shi Zhinie cultivated this that he killed so many people and possessed terrifying strength.

But!

This Blood Drop Heretic Art was incomplete.

It was an incomplete martial art. Even if it was indeed exquisite and contained a frightening might; even if once it was successfully cultivated, one’s body would possess terrifying vitality and its self-healing ability would also be extremely insane, incomplete was incomplete.

The Blood Drop Heretic Art itself was flawed. This was because it relied on absorbing blood energy to cultivate, there was a 70% chance that it would cause one’s temperament to change drastically, turning bloodthirsty and violent.

One could also suffer from Qi Deviation, lose his rationality, and become a complete devil.

A killing machine!

In the end, Shi Zhinie still cultivated it.

The Shi Family had expended a lot of resources and killed thousands of people for him.

Lunatics!

Su Jingxing could only say that everyone in the Shi Family was crazy.

If the Blood Drop Heretic Art was complete, then it would be an ultimate martial art on the same level as the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven.

Even though it was incomplete, Su Jingxing accepted it.

For no other reason but because some of the theories within, if put to good use, could unleash great strength.

As such, he left, loaded with gains from the fourth chamber .

Leaving this secret chamber, Su Jingxing went to the last chamber.

As before, he listened for a moment to make sure that there was no movement before opening the door with brute force from a distance.

He waited a moment before entering.

He quickly scanned the entire space and found that there was only an alloy platform in the middle of the empty secret chamber.

Su Jing walked to the side of the platform. He saw that it was caved in, and there was a layer of transparent glass at the top.

Under the glass, palm-sized pieces of white jade stones were piled up at the bottom of the pit. The pile was about half a meter tall.

His initial estimate was about a hundred pieces.

The question was, what kind of treasures were these jade stones?

Su Jingxing had never seen or heard of such a thing.

Hmm, that’s not right!

“I think I’ve heard of it before!” Su Jingxing muttered, “Who did I hear it from…”

“Right, the Ethereal Sword Immortal!”

Back when the Ethereal Sword Immortal was giving Su Jingxing guidance, she had mentioned a magical treasure.

It was one of the heavenly treasures, the Energy Gathering Stone.

As its name implied, it was a stone capable of gathering worldly energy.

As long as they were placed together according to a certain pattern, they would be able to gather worldly energy for a person’s cultivation.

To put it bluntly, it was a setting up an array formation.

Not an Energy Gathering Array Formation. The Energy Gathering Array Formation was extremely complicated, and it was almost impossible to set up unless it was done by an ancient faction with a thousand years of legacy. Needless to say, this array formation had already been lost.

Comparatively speaking, gathering worldly energy through Energy Gathering Stones was much simpler.

Once a basic array formation was set up, one would be able to constantly gather worldly energy.

There was no need to go to dangerous places in the wild that were difficult to access like the Green Cloud Mountain Range to break through.

The Shi Family had collected many Energy Gathering Stones. Since there were already so many in this base, there must be many energy-gathering training rooms in their residence.

Energy-gathering training rooms were facilities that only large factions had.

This was also one of the benefits of having an organization and a powerful backer.

In the training rooms, one could make a breakthrough.

Su Jingxing naturally put the hundred or so Energy Gathering Stones into his palm space.

Even though he knew nothing about array formations, they were easy to learn, and Energy Gathering Stones were rare.

Su Jingxing happily accepted all the good stuff that the Shi Family had left behind.

After leaving the treasury vault, he generously took out two buckets of Corpse Dissolving Liquid and turned all the corpses into a pool of liquid.

He stored the broken pieces of the Corpse Puppets in boxes and carried them in his hands for the time being. After leaving, he would send them to the Martial Suppression Office to be handled by them.

Mm, when dealing with Shi Jinnian’s corpse, he left his head behind.

Because it was of use to him.

This secret base was used as a route of retreat for the Shi Family. There was naturally no lack of food and necessary supplies.

After Su Jingxing found the warehouse, he also took a batch of resources with him, saving him the trouble and expenses of buying them.

After everything was settled, Su Jingxing went back the way he came and came to the room with the wall partition.

He triggered the mechanism from the inside and revealed the entrance.

The fellow whom he had knocked out was still unconscious.

Su Jingxing didn’t hold back either. He directly killed him and extracted a card.

Then, he used the remaining Corpse Dissolving Liquid to turn the corpse into liquid.

He closed the opening and sealed off the entrance of the base.

If nothing cropped up, no one would discover this underground base for a long time.

This was exactly what Su Jingxing wanted.

The Shi Family was finally taken care of.

There was no need for Su Jingxing to care about the elderly, women, and children who remained in the Shi Family estate.

The collateral branches in the other cities and functional towns were also handled by the Li, Zhou and other families.

Su Jingxing, who had returned with a full load, first rushed to the Martial Suppression Offices in the dark night and placed the boxes containing the four broken Corpse Puppets at the entrance.

Then, he flew straight to the Shi Family’s residence and found Li Lilou, Yan Yuanfeng, and the others who were guarding outside.

…

“Guest Elder Lin hasn’t arrived yet?”

On a street outside the Shi Family estate, Li Lilou, Zhou Wencen, Yan Yuanfeng, and a few others stood in a corner, looking at the sky or at the corner of the street.

Yan Yuanfeng looked around and frowned. “It’s almost time. Why isn’t he here yet?”

“What’s the hurry?” Li Lilou replied coolly. “Even if Guest Elder Lin doesn’t come, we can still finish off Shi Jinnian.”

“That’s not what I meant.” Yan Yuanfeng waved his hand. “I was thinking…”

Swoosh!

A gust of wind suddenly sounded, interrupting Yan Yuanfeng’s explanation.

“Who is it!”

Yan Yuanfeng stepped back, and true energy circled around his palm.

Hu!

Dong!

A black shadow fell from the sky and landed on the ground three meters away from him. It rolled twice and stopped moving.

“What… is this?”

Yan Yuanfeng was bewildered.

“Shi Jinnian’s head.” Su Jingxing’s voice sounded in the air.

What?
