Under One Person: One Person Goes

Chapter 430: Everything in the Sleeve
December 8, 1937.

The invading Japanese army had broken through Nanjing's outer front and was advancing towards the second line of defense, Fukuo positions, located on the outskirts of the city, trying to break through the city gates and enter the city.

The sound of artillery fire had been non-stop since morning, and compared to the previous noise in the outer positions, the people in the city could clearly feel that the sound of fighting was getting closer and closer to them.

Wang Yi, who had been busy all night and had not slept, just sat on the high platform, closed his eyes, meditated and regulated his breathing.

It was not until noon that Wang Yi woke up from his meditation.

Looking around, as far as the eye can see, there are flames and smoke in the distance.

As the Japanese army reached the second line of defense, although they did not send out air strikes out of fear of Wang Yi in the city, it was not a big deal because the advancement of the battle line was enough for the ground artillery to move their guns closer, and the range was no longer limited to outside the city, but could cover the city gates and nearby residential areas on the outskirts of the city.

The shells fell, houses were destroyed and people were killed. It was so tragic.

But Wang Yi emptied his mind and started practicing the inner cultivation method: Observation!
This is a method that every practitioner must practice when they are building a foundation and obtaining Qi. The external practice is to sharpen the muscles and bones and increase strength, while the internal practice is to observe the Dharma, and constantly sense the connection between every bit of Qi obtained in your body and the heaven and earth.

Even though he is extremely talented, he is no exception.

When Ghost Hand Wang Yaozu picked up Wang Yi and adopted him, and taught him the method of reversing the eight directions, Wang Yi practiced in this way.

This method of inner cultivation and observation is all about looking, and because different perspectives will lead to different results, it is also the origin of many schools of thought in the world.

Some regard their bodies as their country and let their own consciousness shine throughout their bodies like a sage king, thus attaining purity.

Some people observe the things around them, study them to gain knowledge, and accumulate the truth of the world over the years.

In the eyes of the Ghost Hand King, what he saw was reversing the eight directions, transforming his own true energy into an eight-directional force field, which could penetrate every hole and capture everything.

In Wang Yi's eyes, he was looking at the four basic forces that objectively existed in the universe. He observed them with his mind and connected his own Qi with the four omnipresent basic forces, thus reversing the eight directions and transforming them into magnetic field martial arts.

Among the young generation in today's circle, Zhang Zhiwei's way of looking at things is to observe all dharmas, understand all dharmas, and finally all dharmas belong to himself; Wu Gen was born with innate supernatural powers, and when his mind moves, his spirit becomes pure and he can practice naturally; while Wang Yi observes all dharmas, understands all dharmas, and then turns them into his own use.

Zhang Zhiwei, Wu Gensheng and Wang Yi had different experiences and saw different results.

Zhang Zhiwei was born in Tianshi Mansion and had read Taoist Canon since he was young. Tianshi Mansion has been passed down for thousands of years and has a profound cultural heritage. Zhang Zhiwei can find similar methods of many schools in the world in Tianshi Mansion Taoist Canon, so he will not be too envious or curious about the methods of other schools in the circle. He only needs to take a look and fight with them to understand them roughly and bless himself.

It seemed like the triple level of reverse rebirth, which was recognized as a unique skill in the circle. However, Zhang Zhiwei only needed to fight with Lu Jin to understand that this was no different from the Golden Light Curse of Longhu Mountain.
People all say that Zhang Zhiwei only uses the Golden Light Mantra to fight against his enemies and rarely uses thunder magic. But how many people can see that Zhang Zhiwei's Golden Light Mantra already has many other wonderful methods.

Wu Gensheng was born with a pure spirit and wisdom. He only needed to read Taoist scriptures to learn the method and practice on his own. It can be said that he has no school, no sect, and no roots, or that all things in the world are his teachers. His entry into Quanxing was accidental and inevitable. Only Quanxing, this colorful thousand-year-old shithole, can help Wu Gensheng take his practice a step further.

Wang Yi is different from the two of them. One has a solid foundation, and the other is naturally pure. He only has an unlimited growth template and a soul that has experienced the information explosion of later generations.

There are good and bad things in this.

If you join a famous family, receive the family's teachings, and practice with concentration, even if you ultimately do not achieve the ultimate way to heaven, you will still be invincible in the world. No matter how many punches you throw at me, I will knock them down with one.

If you meet the wrong person, even if you have found a wonderful method, you still need to consider it for yourself. If you can justify yourself, then it is a supreme means. If you can't even explain it clearly and can't make sense, then you are just getting stuck in a dead end and confining yourself in a circle.

For example, as for the Reversal of the Eight Directions, Wang Yaozu naturally had no way of teaching Wang Yi how to advance the Reversal of the Eight Directions to the point where it could be connected with the four basic forces. Wang Yi had to dig it out himself. Once he had figured it out and could explain it coherently, he could then practice.

But he can only practice by himself, because just because he can understand it himself, it doesn’t mean that others can understand it.

Otherwise, why did he give his notes on practicing magnetic field martial arts to Lu Guangda of the Lu family? It was because Lu Guangda was an expert in physics and could translate the nonsense in his practice notes into human language so that it could be passed on to future generations.

Therefore, as for the Wang family's inherited method of Shentu Boundary Gate, he would not ask the old patriarch Wang or the Wang family's disciples how they practiced it, but would see how he understood the Wang family's Shentu Boundary Gate method.

In Wang Yi's view, the world in the painting connected by this gate is the definition of space in Wang family's Shentu Guanfa.

As long as one can link one's own divine Qi with space, it is equivalent to having a key to open space, or the code of supermarket goods.

By encoding the people or objects that want to enter the world in the painting, they can bring these things from the current three-dimensional space to another space and present them in a reduced-dimensional form.

As long as Wang Yi understood this, what he had to do would be simple.

What he needs to do now is to use his own method of observation to observe other spaces that exist below the three-dimensional space in this world.

This was not the first time he had done this. In order to solve the problem of Master Jin Guang constantly harassing him with the golden escape light, he released the reverse-life true qi from his body to look for other spaces in the three-dimensional space.

He then used the reverse-generated true Qi to protect his body and created three magical powers: shrinking the ground into an inch, drawing a line on the ground to make a prison, and dividing the river into land.

To put it simply, it is based on the understanding of escape methods, turning them into shortcuts, blocking doors and blasting.

This time is new, the second time is familiar.

When I created these three magical powers before, I didn’t use any observation methods. It was just a rough act. Now, if I want to lay out a plan in this city, I have to make sense of it.

So when Wang Yi observed these other spaces that existed outside the current three-dimensional space, in Wang Yi's understanding, it was no longer possible to take shortcuts, block doors, or blow up things.

"Well, to put it bluntly, you use your own true energy as rent, rent a piece of land in these spaces, open an hourly hotel or rent a warehouse, either to put people in or store goods. If the lease is not renewed when the time is up, you can either evict the people or dispose of it yourself? Yeah, that's roughly how I understand it. Then start with an hourly hotel?"

Wang Yi was talking to himself, trying to justify himself, and at the same time, he was infiltrating his own magnetic field and true Qi into the space. He used this true Qi to try to customize a room in the space according to his own ideas.

At the same time, below the dock, Master Jin Guang and other Quan Xing disciples, Patriarch Wang and other famous and righteous people, were all spectators. They looked up at Wang Yi, who had been sitting there for the whole morning, and they all had something to say.

"Grandpa, has he really learned the magic painting that has been passed down in our family?"

"What are you talking about? Our family's Shen Tu has been passed down for thousands of years. The means to become famous are more than just the two tricks of Jiemen and Yin Yang Paper. I don't believe that Wang Yi has been thinking about it for half the night. He just needs to transfer some True Qi to you useless guys and you will learn it."

"Grandpa, you can talk about it, but why are you calling us useless? Didn't you see how much money, grain and goods we had last night? Were we able to move all of them in just one night? Didn't you almost die?"

"How dare you talk back, little brat?!"

"Hehe, Wang family, that's what I thought when I used the Golden Escape Flowing Light to provoke this guy. Guess what, this guy not only learned my Golden Escape Flowing Light, but also did it more coolly than me. I had to transform the Golden Escape Flowing Light into talismans to use, but he, on the other hand, not only did he transform himself into the Golden Escape Flowing Light, he also created a method to block my way."

"Duan, what do you want to say?"

"I want to say that Wang Yi does not need to learn all the magic methods of your Wang family. He only needs to understand the method of this world gate."

"Hehe, this boundary gate method is also a unique skill in the Shen Tu sect. Do you think it is the Golden Escape Flowing Light that you stole from the Tianshi Mansion? Even the Tianshi Mansion doesn't learn this method, but you treat it as a treasure." Listening to the ridicule of Master Jin Guang next to him, the old master Wang retorted sarcastically based on his confidence in his family's inherited methods.

But before Patriarch Wang could finish his words, he heard the children beside him shouting.

"Grandpa, look, the person is gone!"

what?
When the old patriarch Wang turned his head, he found that Wang Yi, who was supposed to be sitting cross-legged on the high platform, had disappeared. His eyes widened at first, and then he looked at his children beside him, such as Lu Ren, the young people who had been watching Wang Yi's movements.

He saw that their degree of surprise was the same as his, or even greater, because he had the opportunity to turn around and quarrel with Master Jin Guang next door. But they had been staring at Wang Yi intently and did not notice how Wang Yi disappeared from their sight.

"Realm Gate!"

A disciple of the Wang family immediately used the divine energy to draw a door leading to the world in the painting, jumped into it, and immediately turned into a little ink figure printed on the ground, looking around, which was quite fun.

Then he shrugged at the people outside who were looking at him, and then he emerged from the world in the painting.

"Sir, I didn't see anyone."

'Squeak! '

Just then, the sound of a door opening came from a brick wall in front, and then they saw this scene.

Wang Yi, who had just disappeared from the high platform, walked out of the brick wall at this time. He first glanced at Quan Xing and Mingmen Zhengdao, and then turned back to look suspiciously at the room behind him.

"I can't build it myself? The apartment types are so random? Didn't I pay enough?"

After hearing these words, both groups of people were confused. Although they didn't understand, they could see clearly.

They do have the same skills as the Wang family's Shen Tu Jie Men.

"Wang Yi, you..."

"Oh, don't worry, old man. This method is new and it is similar to your door. I still haven't learned the magic method well."

Either you haven't learned it well enough or it doesn't matter to you!

Hearing Wang Yi's natural answer, the old patriarch Wang was extremely devastated, but he still walked forward and used his own true Qi to sense the wall behind Wang Yi.

He could clearly feel that there was indeed a temporary space in this wall, similar to the Wang family's Shentu boundary gate. However, when he infiltrated the Shentu Qi into it, he was rejected. This rejection also conveyed a message to himself as the user: pay to book a room.

Can it still be like this? !
Although confused by the news, Patriarch Wang quickly understood its meaning. He first injected a stream of divine energy into it, infiltrated it again, and then tried to walk towards the brick wall.

There is no need to draw the gate beforehand like the divine painting. It just immerses itself in it without leaving any trace on the wall. Unlike the Wang family's divine painting, it will be reflected in the outside world in the form of a two-dimensional calligraphy or painting.

Then, the old master Wang appeared at the place where Wang Yi had just been on the platform, and appeared in another direction of everyone's sight. Then he disappeared and walked out of the brick wall.

His expression was as dumbfounded as a chicken, and his mouth was opened so wide that it felt like he could swallow a light bulb.

After a long pause, he looked at Wang Yi, who didn't seem very satisfied, and asked blankly.

"No medium required?"

"How is that possible? Old man, you have also felt it. This method recognizes Qi but not people. If enough Qi is given, anyone can enter."

"But I feel like there's a bit of my energy in you?"

"Oh, I'm the sub-landlord. I'll charge you an agency fee if you move in. If you run out of energy, I'll also help you evict the tenant."

"Is this... also possible? Then how do you observe the outside world?"

"How did you view the outside world just now, old man?"

Patriarch Wang carefully recalled what he had just experienced and said in surprise, "Mirror? But what I saw in it was not the scene here now."

"I can't help it. I'm just the sub-landlord. I'm only responsible for renting out the house. I have no control over the layout of the house. Although this has disadvantages, it also has advantages. This method aims to hide. If the external things you see are not in the place you enter at the moment, it will be difficult for the other party to find you, and you can hide well. Anyway, isn't it good enough to have fixed entrances and exits?"

"That being said, this is too arbitrary."

"How can I do whatever I want? If I could do whatever I want, I would open a room in Jiangbei on the other side of the river, and also open one here, and open up the lifeline."

"How far is it?"

"Ten feet, this is the largest room I can find so far."

"Ten feet is not a small amount. If you can really reach the sky and ascend to heaven in time, wouldn't you be able to serve the country and open up a new world?"

"A lifeless cave?"

"Whether you are angry or not is a matter for another time. You have to know that this is just a start-up."

"That depends on whether it can be used in the next disaster. I'll ask you to keep an eye on it first, old man. I'll be back soon."

"Where are you going?"

"Now that I have the means, I have to find a place to practice and see how to use them in practice. The bloody battle took place at the Fukuo position, and the people there are still in the flames of war. Let's go and give it a try. With my current level of cultivation, how many places can I open, how many people can I save, and what can I do?"

"Have you thought of a name for this method?"

"I'll think about it slowly later. It's useless to figure it out now. I'll need your help here, old man."

After saying that, Wang Yi waved his sleeves and went back to making money, moving around the city using this temporarily opened space.

The old master Wang stood blankly by the brick wall, thinking about Wang Yi's carefree gesture just now, and silently said four words.

"The universe is in your sleeves."
