Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist - Chapter 171: Arrows Whistling Like the Wind! The 18 Great Thieves!_1

This arrow, not to mention a body of flesh and blood, even if wearing armor could be killed with a single shot.

For an ordinary Martial Artist in the Qi-Blood Veil Realm facing this arrow, it’s a matter of nine deaths and one life, and even a master in the Qi-Blood Wolf Smoke Realm like Qi Chenghong, as long as the distance is maintained, could be exhausted and killed from afar!

Su Changkong was immediately spirited and practiced eagerly. His Inner Strength was profound, with the Turtle Breath Technique reaching the eighth realm, and the most important aspect of Wind Thunder Archery is driving it with True Qi and Qi and Blood. Mastering this Wind Thunder Archery, not to say that he would immediately match Sikong Huang, having four or five tenths of her level for now was enough.

Su Changkong practiced Archery at the bow of the ship, this fine iron strong bow requiring hundreds of pounds of arm strength to pull, but he didn’t feel tired in the least.

After a day, it was the fine iron strong bow that showed some wear and tear, Su Changkong thought to himself that he would need to forge a strong bow suitable for himself in the future!

Wind Thunder Archery (Entry level 11%)

Following Sikong Huang’s guidance, as well as his own hard training, Wind Thunder Archery also appeared on Su Changkong’s attribute panel, and what he needed to do was to raise its realm.

The days of pirate-hunting were dull, most of the time on the ship there was nothing to do, and the other ships occasionally encountered were merchant vessels. As for encountering Sea Pirate ships, it might not even happen once a week.

Most pirate ships would immediately steer clear upon spotting a ship from the Giant Whale Gang, and it was not that easy to pursue other ships at sea.

Most of the time, the Giant Whale Gang simply patrolled back and forth along their own shipping routes to prevent Sea Pirates from entering and robbing the passing merchant vessels.

And the Black Whale would return to the port for repairs once every half a month.

Su Changkong did not feel bored at all, practicing martial arts and cultivating the newly learned Wind Thunder Archery every day!

Days passed by rather peacefully, and two months flashed by.

Until two months later, one day arrived.

In a hall at the edge of the Blue Rain Sea, at the port of the Giant Whale Gang, Su Changkong, Sikong Zhan, and Sikong Huang were all present.

With excitement on his face, Sikong Zhan said, “We’ve just received news, we’ve located Wang Tianyuan!”

“Wang Tianyuan?”

Upon hearing this name, Su Changkong’s heart stirred, for he had heard of it.

Wang Tianyuan, one of the Eighteen Pirates of the Blue Rain Sea, ranked seventh, wielded an elite fleet, notorious across the Blue Rain Sea!

“Wang Tianyuan is indeed a big fish!”

Sikong Huang was also somewhat surprised.

Just the reward offered by Ink Forest Prefecture City’s officials for Wang Tianyuan’s head amounted to fifty thousand taels of silver!

Of course, not just anyone could earn these fifty thousand taels of silver.

Sikong Zhan spoke with invigorated tone, “Wang Tianyuan has repeatedly delved deep into our Giant Whale Gang’s territory, ambushing passing merchant ships and even once sunk a ship from our Gang, causing substantial losses. If we can eliminate him, I believe it will greatly enhance the reputation of our Giant Whale Gang and make the petty thieves quake in fear!”

Eliminating Wang Tianyuan would yield far greater returns than eradicating some scattered Sea Pirates by the hundreds or thousands!

“Wang Tianyuan is currently stationed on an island in the Blue Rain Sea, and we must act quickly on this mission!”

Sikong Zhan quickly decided to make a major move, to capture the seventh-ranked pirate and his forces in the Blue Rain Sea all in one net, which would undoubtedly lead to huge gains.

“Finally, something interesting crops up!”

Su Changkong naturally decided to join in. In the past two months, he had gone to sea, but only encountered scattered Sea Pirates, who were crushed like ants by the Giant Whale Gang; however, Wang Tianyuan was clearly not an ordinary Sea Pirate and would present more of a challenge.

And perhaps it would reap even more rewards!

The value of speed in warfare being paramount, on the same day, Sikong Zhan summoned his men and set out to sea.

This time, the Giant Whale Gang dispatched a total of five war ships, carrying over two thousand Disciples, sailing deep into the Blue Rain Sea!

“Such a large deployment? Is there a major operation underway?”

“Certainly! With half of the warships mobilized, the last time we had a mobilization of this scale was facing the Ninth Grand Thief Li Hun!”

A host of Martial Artists from the Giant Whale Gang began speculating amongst themselves.

To keep the mission secret, Sikong Zhan did not directly disclose the objective, planning to inform everyone just before reaching the destination. However, everyone understood that such a mobilization signified a likely major operation.

On the deck of the Black Whale, Su Changkong watched several large ships cutting through the waves toward the sea, feeling a surge of excitement within.

“Everyone, we have received news that Wang Tianyuan, the seventh of the Eighteen Pirates, and his Heaven Source Group are currently stationed on an island in the Blue Rain Sea. Our mission is to eliminate Wang Tianyuan and eradicate the Heaven Source Group!”

After half a day of sailing by the five warships, it was only in the pre-dawn hours of the next day that Sikong Zhan ordered the news to be spread.

“The Heaven Source Sea Bandit Group? That’s one of the formidable Sea Pirate organizations on the Blue Rain Sea!”

When they learned the news, without a doubt, all the Disciples of the Giant Whale Gang were shocked and immensely excited, knowing that they were about to gobble up a big piece of the pie!

“For this mission, chopping down an ordinary Sea Pirate from the Heaven Source Group will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, chopping down one of Heaven Source Group’s lieutenants will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, chopping down a Martial Artist from the Heaven Source Group in the realm of Qi and Blood will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, and if one can eliminate Wang Tianyuan, they will be rewarded with fifty thousand taels of silver!”

The subsequent announcement detailed the rewards of the mission, the Gang’s generous and fair incentives, the indispensable way in which an organization could survive and thrive in the long term.

In general, such major battles were accompanied by rewards to encourage the Gang’s Martial Artists to fight bravely. For every enemy chopped down, not only was there the glory of victory, but one could also gain a reward of no less than a hundred taels of silver—a perfect time for ordinary Disciples of the Giant Whale Gang to distinguish themselves and achieve merit!
