…
When one's strength reached the great grandmaster level, they were already top-notch experts. Ordinary firearms were no longer a threat to them … Their protective qi was very strong, and bullets could automatically bounce off. Otherwise, the Devil's Island would not be as strong as it was in the underground world.
Even bullets could not penetrate the defense of a great grandmaster expert. Even if one used a sea of people tactic, it would be very difficult to kill a great grandmaster expert …
Of course, some particularly powerful weapons were exceptions … such as some high-explosive rockets and so on.
However, the problem was that when one's strength reached the level of a Great Grandmaster, one's perception of danger was extremely strong. They could even accurately sense the aim of a sniper rifle from thousands of meters away, let alone weapons such as rocket launchers.
Basically, if one did not use a large number of weapons and bombard a certain location, it would be very difficult to kill a great grandmaster expert. It could even be said that it was almost impossible.
However, there were some doubts. When Qin Fang's grandfather, Qin Siyuan, passed away, it was during the Age of Chaos. It was only ordinary firearms, and the power of bullets could be imagined … It was absolutely impossible to break through the protective qi of a great grandmaster expert.
If they could not even break through the protective qi, how could they kill Qin Siyuan?
"Senior, I would like to ask a few more questions about my grandfather …"
Thinking of this, Qin Fang was silent for a moment, but he could not help but ask. Although this was an old matter from decades ago, for some reason, Qin Fang felt that there was a considerable problem here.
"Oh, ask away … What do you want to know? If this old Daoist knows, I will definitely not hide it from you!"
The nine-fingered Daoist did not refuse. He seemed to be very close to Qin Fang and did not intend to hide anything.
"Senior, how did you know that I was from the Qin family?"
This was also a considerable question in Qin Fang's heart. He had even changed his appearance, and there did not seem to be any obvious characteristics.
"The aura on your body …"
The nine-fingered Daoist looked at Qin Fang and sized him up before speaking.
"Aura?"
Qin Fang was stunned. This concept was too mysterious, and he could not understand it at all.
"To be precise, it's the blood of the Qin family …"
The Nine-fingered Taoist added. But when he saw Qin Fang's blank face, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Didn't your father tell you about the origin of your Qin Family?"
"The origin of the Qin family?"
Qin Fang was dumbfounded. He had never heard of these things before. "My father left home before I was born. He has been gone for 20 years and has only been found recently. He has never mentioned these things to me …"
Although Qin Tiannan had talked a lot with Qin Fang on the way back from the Devil's Island, perhaps because of the presence of Lin Qian and Alfred, Qin Tiannan didn't mention this to Qin Fang.
In fact, Qin Fang himself was also very confused …
Ever since he met Elder Tang and Elder Chu, he knew that his ancestors and father all practiced martial arts. Almost all of them were rather powerful … When Qin Tiannan was on the Devil's Island, he even looked forward to meeting his son, Qin Fang, as if he already knew that Qin Fang practiced martial arts.
However, the problem was that if Qin Fang did not have a fortuitous encounter, he would only be an ordinary person who did not know any martial arts … His mother, Qin Qing, had never prepared any secret martial arts manuals for him.
"You don't know?"
The nine-fingered Daoist was also stunned. He carefully observed Qin Fang for a long time and frowned deeply. His expression was one of incomparable confusion and surprise. "Then who did you learn martial arts from?
Also, how did you cultivate the inner strength of the Blood Martial Secret Record? "
"Blood Martial Secret Record?"
Hearing this name, Qin Fang was even more confused because this was the first time he had heard of it.
"Could this be my Qin family's secret technique?
But I don't know any Blood Martial Secret Record … My martial arts were all pieced together. I didn't even know that the Qin family had a secret technique that was passed down … "
"Eh … pieced together?"
The nine-fingered Daoist was also a little confused by Qin Fang's words. He looked at Qin Fang with a strange expression.
"Eh, it really doesn't seem to be the Blood Martial Secret Record … But it's a little similar. This is … the Blood Demon Divine Art?
Hiss … "
However, the nine-fingered Daoist carefully examined for a long time. He even placed his finger on Qin Fang's wrist and carefully inserted a bit of true energy to test it out. However, he quickly withdrew it, a look of horror on his face.
"This junior did accidentally obtain a fragment of the Blood Demon Divine Art …"
Qin Fang was also astonished by the nine-fingered Daoist's ability. He was actually able to analyze the martial arts that Qin Fang cultivated with just a bit of true energy. This was definitely not something that an ordinary expert could do … But Qin Fang didn't deny the fact that he cultivated the Blood Demon Divine Art.
To prove this point, Qin Fang even shook the Blood Demon true energy in his body. His body immediately glowed with a bloody light. That soft and strange aura was also frightening. Only a peak expert with profound skills like the nine-fingered Daoist didn't pay much attention to it.
"I didn't expect this, I really didn't expect this …"
The nine-fingered Daoist nodded lightly when he saw the bloody light on Qin Fang's body. He didn't shout and kill like those so-called orthodox cultivators. Instead, he had an expression that said, "So that's how it is." He seemed to have understood something.
"I didn't expect to recognize you by accident … The qi and blood of the Qin Clan members innately contains the aura of the Blood Martial Secret Record. This is passed down from generation to generation. As long as you know the special method to activate it, you can easily step into the ranks of martial artists!"
The nine-fingered Daoist smiled slightly and briefly explained the Blood Martial Secret Record to Qin Fang. Of course, this was only some simple information that he knew. He didn't know the true secrets within. It was a secret technique unique to the Qin Clan. Only members of the Qin Clan could learn and use it. Even if others learned it, it would be useless.
"Perhaps your father left early and didn't tell you the method to activate the Blood Martial Secret Record. That's why you weren't able to cultivate it. This special energy is still hidden in your qi and blood … However, since you've cultivated the Blood Demon Divine Art and mixed it with your qi and blood, it made me think that you've cultivated the Blood Martial Secret Record …"
"Haha … this can be considered fate between this junior and senior!"
Although he didn't know the truth, Qin Fang was still very happy. At the very least, he'd gotten to know such a powerful expert … Moreover, this person was a friend and not an enemy. Just this point alone was enough to make Qin Fang feel at ease.
"That's right, we are indeed fated. Come, drink a few more cups with this old Daoist!"
The nine-fingered Daoist was very forthright. He chuckled and praised Qin Fang before raising his wine cup and downing a few more cups with him. Then, he reminded him softly, "The power of the Blood Martial Secret Record in your body hasn't been activated yet. You'd best contact your father as soon as possible and have him teach you the method to activate it … Although this won't allow you to directly advance, it'll definitely give you unexpected benefits!"
"The Blood Martial Secret Record played an important role in allowing the Qin Clan to have a place in the jianghu …"
"Thank you for the reminder, senior …"
Qin Fang had originally planned to ask his father, Qin Tiannan, about it, but he hadn't even told him about such an important matter … Qin Tiannan had probably been in a hurry to return and see his wife after twenty years, so he'd forgotten about this small matter.
After all, even the nine-fingered Daoist could have been mistaken. Who knew if Qin Tiannan might have mistaken the Blood Demon Divine Art for the Blood Martial Secret Record? If that was the case, then it was excusable for Qin Tiannan to forget such an important matter.
"Looks like the advancement this time will be faster than I expected …"
Qin Fang had already been stuck on the brink of advancement. If it wasn't for the fact that it wasn't suitable to stay on the small island for too long, he'd wanted to break through there … Leaving the small island, where the spiritual qi of heaven and earth was abnormally dense, would naturally slow down his advancement in the secular world.
However, now that he had the power of the Blood Martial Secret Record, it might really be of help to Qin Fang …
Of course, this was what the nine-fingered Daoist had said himself. Qin Fang would have to experience the truth for himself. No matter how much he said, it would be too much of a scam if the effects weren't achieved!
"Right, senior, there's something else I'd like to ask … It's about my grandfather's death!"
Qin Fang had gained a lot from their previous conversation, especially knowing the secret of the Blood Martial Secret Record. This made Qin Fang extremely happy, but at the same time … the question in his heart was becoming more and more unclear.
"Sigh …"
The nine-fingered Daoist's expression darkened when he heard Qin Fang mention this. "Actually … I'm partly responsible for this matter as well. If I had listened to Brother Siyuan's opinion back then, perhaps he wouldn't have been so heavily injured … Otherwise, with his cultivation, how could he have died in such a sullen manner?"
"Hm?"
Qin Fang's brows furrowed slightly when he heard the nine-fingered Daoist's words. He looked at the old Daoist with a strange expression.
Although he didn't have any feelings for his grandfather — after all, they hadn't interacted at all — they were still members of the Qin Clan. It would be strange if Qin Fang didn't have any thoughts when he suddenly heard this.
"You guys leave first …"
However, the nine-fingered Daoist didn't care about the change in Qin Fang's expression. Instead, he turned around and spoke to Chen Liang and the others.
"Uh …"
Chen Liang and the others were stunned. They were clearly very surprised. The nine-fingered Daoist hadn't even asked them to leave when they were talking about the Qin Clan's Blood Martial Secret Record. They didn't expect him to chase them away so rudely for the sake of an old man who had passed away decades ago.
"You guys leave first!"
Seeing the nine-fingered Daoist's serious expression, Qin Fang naturally knew that the contents of the conversation would be extremely secretive and not suitable for Chen Liang and the others to hear. He naturally waved his hand and chased them out.
