Chapter 1223: Nine Golden Needle Transformative Acupressure Technique
Boom!
At the moment the sect master straightened his body, the weather in the valley changed . The zither notes in the air seemed to be forcefully squashed down by an invisible strength until they were pushed into an invisible space . The increasingly excited zither notes were muddled in an instant, and they sounded as if they came from a faraway place . The sound was like a mosquito, and it was very strange .
This was a pure usage of the dao of heaven . Even Happy had to watch intently and had his spirit sense cover the entire valley so that he could explore how great was the sect master’s control over the dao of heaven and how he used it…
At the same time, Happy was very worried as well . He did not know whether Wind Chimes could persist under the sect master’s powerful mental pressure and willpower .
Because he could clearly sense that under the great pressure, Wind Chines’ speed in plucking the zither strings had slowed down, and the notes had become intermittent as well .
With the power of the dao of heaven, the pressure would become greater . Once this situation continued, Wind Chimes would be in an even more perilous situation . If she were controlled by the dao of heaven, she would have a hard time turning the tide .
But it was a little hard for a player in Inaction Realm to fight against the mental pressure from someone in the dao of heaven .
When he thought of this, Happy suddenly noticed that Wind Chimes had stopped playing the zither .
“Huh?”
He was slightly stunned . Happy thought that Wind Chimes had already given up . A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he sighed .
No matter what, Wind Chimes was not the usual Inaction Realm player . She had Nine Yin Blocked Pulses, and she was much stronger than the average person in Inaction Realm . She had also inherited Six-fingered Demonic Zither’s legacy . She had an outstanding ultimate technique, and she was already stronger than the usual top-class elite . Even if she could not fight against the sect master’s mental pressure and the power of the dao of heaven, she should not have given up and admitted defeat so easily .
If she did that, she would only cause the sect master to underestimate her, and she would lose her final chance to get him to acknowledge her .
From the vegetable patch, the sect master noticed that Wind Chimes had stopped playing the zither . When she stopped playing, a strange light shone in her eyes, and it was complicated and difficult to understand .
At that moment, Wind Chimes’ movements changed . She quickly brought out a golden needle from her Universe Bag, separated her hands, and revealed nine golden needles between her fingers .
The nine golden needles were sent to the top of her head at lightning speed .
When they saw this, Happy and the sect master both let out soft gasps of surprise .
When Happy saw Wind Chimes stabbing an important acupressure point of the human body, his heart leapt to his throat, and he felt a weight on his shoulders . ‘The girl wants to fight with her life!’
“She used golden needles to her acupressure point . That’s a secret technique… Is it the Nine Golden Needle Transformative Acupressure Technique?!”
Thousand-faced Human Fox had seen many things, and when he saw how familiar Wind Chimes’ movements were, he could not help but blurt out these words .

Before his voice faded away…
Boom!
Once she activated the Nine Golden Needle Transformation Acupressure Technique, an invisible and powerful force swept out of Wind Chimes’ body into all directions! Her hair flew in the air, and her pupils turned a strange white . A cold, harsh, and mysterious presence exploded from her body .
‘Myth Realm?!’
Wind Chimes’ qi immediately rose to another level at the moment the nine needles stabbed her acupressure point . She entered Myth Realm, the state all players dreamed of reaching at the moment .
This discovery caused Happy to be unable to help but be dumbfounded . He sucked in sharp breaths .
Wind Chimes was already outstanding to begin with . She was in Inaction Realm, but she could already bring forth power that surpassed even the supreme-class players . She could even block off two to three supreme-class players on her own .
If her qi realm increased, her zither notes could turn into blades . Each of her attacks contained the power of someone in Myth Realm . A normal Inaction Realm player would not be able to block her off . Even those at the peak of Myth Realm might have to avoid her .
Clang!
Wind Chimes’ eyes turned bloodshot, and her hair danced in the air .
She placed her hands on the zither strings again in a familiar motion . With a casual flick, powerful notes that made people’s hearts shudder charged through the shackles placed on her by the power of the dao of heaven from the sect master . The plants and stones in the valley started shuddering .
The valley trembled, because her qi was astonishing .
Wind Chimes did not stop . Zither notes filled with a murderous quality spilled out with loud clangs .
As if to verify Happy’s guess, when the zither notes jumped out and landed in the air, they quickly formed snow-white blades .
Regardless of their speed or momentum, they were much stronger than the sound blades she formed moments ago .
Almost a hundred sound blades were formed, and the air in the valley was filled with a murderous quality . An incredibly dangerous presence swept through the valley from Wind Chimes .
During that instant, even Happy could not help but feel a little threatened . He could sense a fierce, murderous, and cold will from the rows of sound blades in the air .
If Happy felt that, Xu Yao and Thousand-faced Human Fox would definitely be even more affected .
Thousand-faced Human Fox knew just how terrifying was the Nine Golden Needle Transformative Acupressure Technique . This technique allowed someone to forcibly increase their qi realm, but they needed to use a part of their life as the price . They could increase their strength to gain incredibly terrifying power .
“Master, be careful!” Thousand-faced Human Fox’s face turned pale . He cried out in warning . “The Nine Golden Needle Transformative Acupressure Technique might be able to allow a person to increase their qi realm out of the blue, but if that person isn’t able to control it well, it’ll be very easy for them to lose their minds . They will have the ruthless power control their instincts . Your friend might already be controlled by her instincts . Right now, the sound blades won’t distinguish between friend and foe . If we continue staying here, we’ll be caught in her attacks!”
When he heard this, Happy frowned a little .
No matter what, Thousand-faced Human Fox was someone in the later stage of Myth Realm . His lightness skill was at the same level as a normal martial artist in the dao of heaven . Right now, even he had his expression change when he witnessed this . This showed just how strong the murderous sound blades Wind Chimes created were .

Xu Yao also had a fearful and shocked look appear on her face .
Even though she did not know Wind Chimes’ true strength clearly, based on how Wind Chimes’ robes danced without the wind, how her pupils turned white, and the momentum of the near one hundred terrifying blades were, she knew that Wind Chimes was already at the border of losing control .
She turned her face around, and she saw Happy’s concerned expression .
He said, “Ten Thousand Years, escort Xu Yao to the back . Leave the valley . ”
“Understood, Master!”
Thousand-faced Human Fox listened to everything Happy said . He carried out his orders strictly .
Xu Yao did not fight back .
She knew that right now, there was one person in the dao of heaven in the valley, and the other was a Myth Realm zither player who lost control . Even Happy might be slightly threatened by this . It would be too difficult for him to take care of her, since she was only at Moksha Realm .
However, Xu Yao was still very curious about this Myth Realm old man beside her . He seemed to be an NPC, but he followed Happy around strangely, as if he was his servant and follower . Happy had also not told her of his identity . He was incredibly mysterious .
Still, she followed what Happy told her and retreated 328 feet away from the valley with the old, mysterious servant . Then, Xu Yao immediately heard continuous sonic booms and the vicious clash of qi forces .
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sounds of fierce fighting rose and fell .
The zither sounds became fiercer and faster!
The fierce wind from the valley seemed to have brushed past her ears . They were incredibly sharp . A powerful qi flow that made the air shudder blew at them from the distance, causing their robes to flutter .
Xu Yao widened her eyes . She still needed to activate her qi realms and her body fortification before she could manage to stand still in the rampaging qi flow .
In the end, she needed Thousand-faced Human Fox to take the initiative to block off some of the qi flow . It was only then that Xu Yao felt slightly better .
Xu Yao stood behind Thousand-faced Human Fox, and her gaze when she looked at the valley was filled with shock and fear .
Even she already had a hard time when she was so far away from the valley, she could not imagine just how terrifying it would be if she were caught in an area where the people in the dao of heaven fought . Hence, she could not help but feel a little worried as she thought about Happy .
Once Thousand-faced Human Fox escorted Xu Yao and left, their departure provoked Wind Chimes . The near one hundred sound blades in the air formed a majestic sound river with a clang . They gave up on their target for this trip—the sect master of Zither Sect—and headed in the direction where Thousand-faced Human Fox and Wind Chimes left .
“What?!”
Happy was shocked by the sudden accident .
The area of effect of the zither sounds from Sky Demon Zither was very large . In fact, it could travel at a range further than normal arrows .
Happy had once seen Wind Chimes easily kill someone who was 165 feet away . Naturally, he knew that Wind Chimes’ area of attack right now was even larger, because she was at Myth Realm .
Right now, when he saw that Wind Chimes had already lost control of herself and started attacking this side, he found himself not knowing whether he wanted to laugh or cry .
She originally did this to test the sect master of Zither Sect and to display her strength to him…
But things had progressed to this state instead!
Fortunately, Happy himself possessed outstanding abilities . Besides, he found himself wanting to spar with Wind Chimes after her strength increased by leaps and bounds . Hence, calmly, he flipped his palm, and Heaven Crystal landed in his hand .
Full Winds in Long Skies!
When he faced Wind Chimes, who was in Myth Realm and who had lost control, Happy did not dare to act recklessly at all . When he attacked, he used the trump card that contained the most terrifying power .
His attack was nearly one hundred thousand points, and it was multiplied by seven because of Full Winds in Long Skies . That was the equivalent of seven outstanding people in the dao of heaven attacking at the same time!
Even so, when he faced the powerful combination of nearly one hundred sound blades charging at him, Happy had to retreat while avoiding their aggressive chase…
Because the area of effect for the explosive power in Full Winds in Long Skies was highly limited, but Wind Chimes’ zither sounds could come in endless streams .
Just as he expected, while the seven shocking sword wills crushed the terrifying sound river formed by nearly one hundred sound blades, Wind Chimes still instinctively plucked her zither strings . A string of sound blades charged forward like a tidal wave, completely crushing the remaining force contained in Happy’s slash .
While he was airborne, Happy retreated madly .
Wind Chimes plucked the zither strings with her hands . The endless sound blades kept on charging through the air to cut towards Happy .
Happy was gradually unable to handle the onslaught .
Originally, while he retreated, he quickly cancelled off the attacks, and he could handle the situation somewhat .
But as more sound blades appeared in the area and gradually surrounded him, Happy noticed miserably that the space he could move was becoming smaller .
Slowly, Happy felt his pressure increase .
He could not get close to attack Wind Chimes . He could only engage in a battle of attrition to whittle down her strength, but if this went on for a long time, how could he possibly last?
He was forced to activate his true origin aura .
Fortunately, the Heavenly Demon Armor he got from the alliance master had astonishing defenses, and it also negated thirty percent damage and damage from hidden forces . Besides, Happy had been strengthened by Tendon Changing Classic and Marrow Cleansing Classic before, so his defense was even higher than those in the dao of heaven . Even if he was hit a few times, it would just be like a scratch . Otherwise, he would have died multiple times in Wind Chimes’ hands .
‘This stupid girl! Why isn’t she waking up yet?!’
Happy cursed in his heart .
This lasted for a few minutes, and slowly, Happy noticed that there was something off about Wind Chimes .
As time passed, Wind Chimes started to slow down as she played her zither . Blood trickled out of her mouth and nostrils, and her face became much paler . She started swaying .
‘Oh no!’
When he noticed that there was something off about Wind Chimes, Happy immediately understood what was going on . The burden of the rampaging power in her was definitely too much for her, and her body was about to collapse .
“Old man, are you going to just keep watching?!”
Happy glared at the very calm white-haired old man in the vegetable patch…

Grey Worlds
A mysterious incident occurred on a otherwise normal science centered world where all of the children from the age range of eight to sixteen suddenly vanished. “Where have their kids gone and will they ever return?” The now childless parents never got to really ask that question, because a strange new element replaced their lost children. This element slowly mutated the various animals that they once ruled over with their technology to the point that they were immune to their modern weaponry. The barren land of savages on a continent far away from theirs also had their children taken, but they easily mutated just like the beasts and only grew stronger thanks to the incident. A revolution of animals eventually took place after the mutations started to cause the animals to understand just how badly the humans ruined their lives and planet. Humans were the slowest to figure out how to use this strange new element to evolve, while their opponents were evolving and growing stronger by the day they couldn’t even surpass their modern technology. When humanity was on the brink of extinction a long forgotten event finally ended and their children finally started to return from the various worlds they were summoned to! It turns out that the mysterious new element that they didn’t know what to call was mana and that it’s everywhere in some fantasy planets. The children brought back a increase in technology and techniques to grow stronger with, which caused the humans to finally be able to build safe havens for their race. They grew stronger and started to finally adapt to their brand new environment. This is the story of a orphan who was taken away from his world, before he could gain a sense of attachment to the world. Who only has his older sister to care about and how he ends up adapting to the new world in front of him.------------------Dog notes by doggo First 'five' chapters aren't what the story is really about and is more of a prologue. The reason why some are separated into parts is because Doggo originally posted them as a entire chapter. The main setting is Ghost's actual world and not any foreign world. So this story was already posted once to another site or this site three years ago… and Dog is finally ending that three year hiatus! The explanation on why Dog was on a three year hiatus would of been written in the review section, but rrl doesn't allow self reviews. I'd have to create a alt just to self review which they obviously don't want even tho I'd not give myself any stars so its going to be here instead. The update schedule is a chapter a week till Dog get a editor and then two chapters a week till Dog gets enough money to pay for Dog’s bills. The final goal is to release a chapter every other day. Dog writes 4k word chapters so they are about twice as long as some of the other authors so every other day is actually more like once a day. ------------------- The part that was supposed to be the 'review' which Dog wont bother editing out repeat infomation since it wasn't supposed to go here in the first place. The first thing Dog will go over is what changed for the first 5 chapters, so that anyone who still remembers Dog's little novel and wants to continue from where Dog originally left off can decide whether or not to reread it. Also Dog is moving over to qidan simply because dog like the app they have. Dog won't go premium even if Qidan tells dog to and will simply move back to royalroad or create a blog.The things that changed over the years are mainly two important things. The first is that Dog changed the first person point of view to a third person, because Dog read a really bad first person novel and it reminded dog of dogs own novel. Dog also changed the thoughts of the character to be - - instead of italics. Finally dog changed chapter 3 completely to make the mc not seem like a homicidal maniac and introduced a important character in chapter 3.What happened to do in the three years that dog was away? Was dog at college and now needs money to eat? Was dog off in space after successfully becoming a astronaut and has now returned home with a completed novel or two? The answer is actually quite plain dog graduated from highschool and was supposed to only spend a year at dogs owners house to choose what major dog wanted to go to college for.Dog didn't do that and is still stuck with dogs owners and is sick of being a neet. Dog wants to move and buy doggy food, but dog is antisocial and doesn't want to work a simple 9 to 5 job for the rest of dogs life. Dog is a reader before dog is a author and the reason why dog got into writing was because dog wanted to write a novel without all the things dog finds annoying. Dog spent the first year reading various novels and dropping various novels. Dog is all caught up and has to much free time on dogs paws. The first year that Dog took off was the very same year that qidan came out so dog was naturally overloaded with free chapters. But now that pemium exists dog naturally has to limit the amount dog can read. Dog is addicted to reading like my very own readers and can understand your frustrations for dog disappearing for 3 years.Dog decided that dog will go back to writing 2 years ago. Dog wanted a decent stockpile incase dog has any other emergency so dog didn't post for a year but then dog decided to change the point of view which took another year.Dog has a patreon page https://www.patreon.com/mclaindog but there isn't any tiers there or goals till dog gets a editor. My final goal is to release a chapter every other day, but as long as Dog gets a editor Dog will do two free chapters a week.Dog will probably also make a kofi for anyone who just wants to send dog a tip and can't afford to donate money monthly while maybe having bonus chapters if the tip jar gets filled.
