Chapter 27: Strengthening Bones and Muscles
After coming to Zhongnan Mountain for half a year, Fang Hao finally found the mysterious stone chamber under the ancient tomb.

Fang Hao first practiced the "Nine Yang Magic Art". After the energy filled his whole body, water vapor began to evaporate from his body, and his wet clothes were quickly dried.

Then Fang Hao opened the oilcloth package in his arms and took out a fire starter, writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Today I didn’t randomly get the ability of “photographic memory”, so I can only write it down on paper.

When Fang Hao looked towards the top of the stone chamber, he saw the topographic map of the ancient tomb and part of the "Nine Yin Scriptures" engraved by Wang Chongyang.

It includes internal martial arts techniques such as the I Ching Bone Strengthening Chapter, the Destroying Divine Claw, the Acupoint Release Secret, the Breath Holding Secret and the Soul Transferring Technique, and even includes some of the "General Outline" content, but it is somewhat incomplete.

Fang Hao hurriedly took out a pen and paper and started taking notes. Soon, he had written down the content of this part of the scripture.

He also used the contents of the Destroying Divine Claw to reflect the Second Volume of the Nine Yins that he had recorded in his childhood with his "photographic memory" and found that it was exactly the same.

Fang Hao recalled the part of the Nine Yin Internal Skill that Huang Yaoshi had reverse-deduced. The gist of the technique was exactly what he wanted, but there were only slight differences.

It has to be said that Huang Yaoshi is worthy of being a master. With the martial arts moves in the second volume, he can reversely deduce and restore 60 to 70 percent of the internal energy techniques in the first volume. He is indeed a genius.

Having obtained the two peerless magical skills of "Nine Yin and Nine Yang" at the same time, Fang Hao wanted to find a place to sit down immediately and comprehend them seriously.

He thought about it and gave up the idea of ​​entering the ancient tomb. After all, Xiaolongnu was probably not born yet at that time, and Li Mochou was probably still a little girl of the same age as Huang Rong, so there was nothing good to see.

So, with the help of the newly learned "secret of holding breath", he dived into the undercurrent below the stone chamber, and returned to the stone cave where the deep pool was faster than when he came.

After returning to his thatched cottage at the foot of Mount Zhongnan, Fang Hao could not wait to comprehend the contents of the first volume of the Nine Yin Scriptures, especially the "Chapter on Changing Muscles and Strengthening Bones".

I discovered that the content of the "Yi Jin Jian Gu Chapter" is similar to the "Nine Yang Divine Art".

It says: "People only know that sitting still and thinking is the achievement of moral improvement, but they do not know that the most accomplished people have perfect concentration and wisdom, and cultivate both the body and the mind. They can be still in motion and at peace even in the midst of trouble."

This means that advanced internal skills include not only static skills cultivated through meditation, but also dynamic skills that are practiced from the outside to the inside.

The content of this part is also involved in the essence of the Nine Yang Divine Art.

Thinking back to the original novel, the mysterious outsider, the Drunken Monk, was inspired to create the "Nine Yang Magical Art" after reading the "Nine Yin Scriptures".

It is not surprising that there are similarities between the two in their spiritual practice and understanding.

"The martial arts in the Nine Yin Manual follow the path of the extreme yin and the birth of yang. Although the Nine Yang Magic emphasizes the harmony of yin and yang, in the early stage it also follows the path of the extreme yang and the extreme hardness, and finally reaches the state of the extreme yang and the birth of yin."

"Although the two eventually reach the same goal and can both reach the highest realm of martial arts when practiced to perfection, in the early stages, yin and yang repel each other, and water and fire cannot coexist, so it is difficult for them to practice together."

After realizing the key, Fang Hao could only put aside the internal skills in the Nine Yin Scriptures for the time being. After he had practiced the Nine Yang Magic Art to a high level, he would then comprehend the way of mutual assistance between Yin and Yang.

By obtaining part of the "Nine Yin Scriptures" in Chongyang's remains, Fang Hao has achieved half of the goal of this trip to Mount Zhongnan.

As for the remaining half, Fang Hao looked at the Chongyang Palace shrouded in clouds and mist not far away, and pondered endlessly.

……

Chongyang Palace, Main Hall
Inside the tall hall, more than ten huge candles were brightly lit, and in the middle, seven cushions were placed side by side.

The strange thing was that there were only five Taoist priests, four men and one woman, sitting cross-legged on the five cushions. The first and second cushions at the top were empty.

"Report!"

At this time, a young Taoist priest in a Taoist robe and with an elegant demeanor hurried in and said, "Disciple Zhen Zhibing reports to the five uncles, someone is visiting the mountain today!"

"Who is coming to pay a visit to the mountain? Zhibing, can't you get rid of this person?" Tan Chuduan asked.

Shaolin is a reclusive sect, while Quanzhen Sect is known as the "authentic martial arts sect in the world". It is one of the most important sects in the martial arts world. Every year, countless martial artists come to the temple to provoke others in the name of worshipping the mountain.

However, most of these heroes in the martial arts world could not even pass the test of the third generation of disciples of Quanzhen Sect and were "asked to leave the mountain gate".

If it weren't for the real masters coming, the Seven Quanzhen Masters would not move easily.

Zhen Zhibing said, "Uncle Tan, the identity of the person coming here is somewhat special. This is a visiting card."

As he said this, he presented a gold-stamped half-sticker to Tan Chuduan. After Tan Chuduan read it, he passed it to Wang Chuyi and others in turn.

Hao Datong took a glance and said, "What Dajiang League leader? I've never heard of him."

Tan Chuduan said, "Junior brother, take a closer look."

Hao Datong took a closer look and said, "Oh? He is actually a disciple of Peach Blossom Island! Does this mean he is a disciple of Huang Lao Xie?"

At this time, Sun Buer also interrupted and said, "In the past, the sword contest on Mount Huashan determined the ownership of the Nine Yin Manual. Huang Laoxie was no match for the master. Today, his disciple is here, I'm afraid he has bad intentions!"

"Now the eldest brother has gone to the desert to look for the descendants of the Guo family. The second brother is in Zhongdu, teaching Yang Kang martial arts. I wonder how many people have come from Peach Blossom Island this time?" Hao Datong said hesitantly.

"Reporting to Uncle Master, only one person came!" Zhen Zhibing said.

"Only one person came?" Liu Chuxuan asked, "Are you trying to deceive me, the Quanzhen Sect, into believing that there is no one there?"

"Don't make a hasty judgment! Since he is a disciple of Huang Lao Xie, you should meet him first and ask him about his purpose before you speak!"

So Tan Chuduan continued, "Zhi Bing, go and invite them in."

"Yes, uncle-master!" Zhen Zhibing said with a bow.

Zhen Zhibing retreated as he was told. When he reached the gate of Chongyang Palace, he saw that many Taoist priests in yellow crowns had gathered there, and shouts of encouragement could be heard from time to time.

"Come on, Senior Brother Zhao! Teach this arrogant boy a lesson!"

"That's right, let this kid see the power of my Quanzhen swordsmanship!"

……

In the center of the venue, Wang Chuyi's eldest disciple Zhao Zhijing was holding a long sword, wielding the forty-nine moves of Quanzhen swordsmanship with ease, and fighting with Fang Hao in a stalemate.

The Quanzhen Sect disciples cheered for Zhao Zhijing on the side.

Only Zhao Zhijing, who was in the battle, became more and more frightened.

Because he had already pushed his swordsmanship to the extreme, but Fang Hao in front of him still looked calm and composed, as if he didn't care about his attack at all.

"Is this the Quanzhen sword technique? It's nothing special!" Fang Hao looked at Zhao Zhijing opposite him and showed a sarcastic smile.

"Damn it, how dare you look down on me!" A fierce look flashed in Zhao Zhijing's eyes.

The long sword stabbed straight forward, as fast as a meteor, with a move of "Exploring the Sea and Slaying the Dragon", stabbing at Fang Hao's lower body, but Fang Hao dodged it easily.

Then he used another move called "Strong Wind Sweeping Leaves" to quickly cut Fang Hao's right leg. His move was ruthless and merciless!
