The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Looking at Fang Hao, who had an epiphany after a battle and was sitting cross-legged on the ground practicing magical skills, the middle-aged Taoist priest could not help but laugh or cry.

With his keen eyesight, he could already see that Fang Hao was using him as a whetstone to hone a peerless martial art.

However, as a disciple of Wudang, he disdains to take advantage of others in distress. Not only did he stop at the critical moment, he even protected Fang Hao.

It has to be said that the characters and martial arts skills of the disciples taught by Zhang Sanfeng of the Wudang Sect are both first-rate in the world!
When Fang Hao finished regulating his breathing, he suddenly opened his eyes and saw a middle-aged Taoist priest sitting cross-legged in front of him, looking at him with a smile.

Seeing this, Fang Hao clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you, Zhang Sixia, for protecting me!"

Yes, Fang Hao had already guessed the true identity of the middle-aged Taoist priest when he took action. He was Zhang Songxi, the fourth hero among the Seven Heroes of Wudang.

Zhang Songxi's eyes flashed with a gleam of light and he asked, "How did you, young man, figure out my identity?"

"Tiyunzong, Mian Zhang, Zhenshan Iron Palm and Shenmen Thirteen Swords are all unique martial arts of Wudang Sect. Only the Seven Heroes of Wudang can practice these martial arts to the level of perfection!" Fang Hao said in a loud voice.

The middle-aged Taoist priest, Zhang Songxi, asked, "Then how did you guess that I was Zhang Songxi?"

"It's age!" Fang Hao said, "Among the Seven Heroes of Wudang, Hero Song and Hero Yu are old, Hero Yin and Hero Mo are too young. Among the remaining three, Hero Yu was seriously injured in his early years and will not come down the mountain. Hero Zhang was kidnapped by Xie Xun and has disappeared. The only one in Wudang Sect who has such skills is you, Hero Zhang!"

"Pa pa pa!" Zhang Songxi couldn't help but clap his hands and said, "Good analysis. I didn't expect that there is a talent like you among the common people. May I know your name?"

"My name is Fang Hao, and I'm just an unknown person in Haozhou." Fang Hao said modestly.

"Fang Hao? Could it be that you are the famous 'benevolent and righteous' Fang Xiangzhu who is well-known in Huaixi?" Zhang Songxi asked back.

Among the Seven Heroes of Wudang, Zhang Songxi is not only a martial arts master, but also resourceful and good at observing people's expressions and understanding their hearts.

He knew everything about the martial arts world and knew that Fang Hao was a great hero who had emerged in the martial arts world in the past two years and was well-known as a chivalrous man in the Huaixi area.

"Zhang Sixia, this nickname of unparalleled benevolence and righteousness is just a favor from friends in the martial arts world, but it should not be taken seriously." Fang Hao explained.

To be honest, when Fang Hao first heard of his nickname, he felt quite ashamed. He looked like a villain in Gu Long's novels.

"If someone else gave me this nickname, I would just think it was a joke. But I have also been to Hengshan. The people under the rule of Lord Fang Xiang live and work in peace and contentment, and he deserves this name." Zhang Songxi said.

What is a chaotic world? People are living in poverty and starving people are everywhere.

However, in Mingguang and Dingyuan, which were within the influence of Fang Hao's Hengshan rebel army, the people lived a stable life and there were no bandits or bullies. At that time, Zhang Songxi became interested in Fang Hao, the leader of the Hengshan rebel army.

After seeing each other today, even Zhang Songxi couldn't help but praise Fang Hao: "Heroes emerge from young!"
After a while of chatting, Fang Hao also understood the reason why Zhang Songxi came here. It turned out that in the Longmen Escort Agency case ten years ago, the missing Zhang Cuishan was suspected to be the murderer.

Zhang Songxi knew that his fifth brother Zhang Cuishan would come back sooner or later. When the time came, all the major escort agencies would unite with all the major sects and go to Wudang Mountain to put pressure on Zhang Cuishan.

To this end, he had prepared for many years, made arrangements in advance, and secretly showed favors to Qi Tianbiao, the chief escort of Jinling Huju Escort Agency, Yun He, the chief escort of Taiyuan Jinyang Escort Agency, and others.

Today, Fang Hao took advantage of the fight between Fang Hao and the Four Heroes of Hongze to take this box of precious pearls, just to pave the way for future responses for Gong Jiujia, who had done a favor to the Yanyun Escort Agency. Fang Hao knew about Zhang Songxi's secret plan and admired him very much. Frankly speaking, he mostly focused on the protagonist Zhang Wuji in the plot of Yitian. Zhang Songxi's secret contribution to the Wudang Sect was really touching.

"Mr. Zhang, I am too arrogant today and would like to ask for your help to break through the bottleneck of my martial arts. You can take these pearls as my thank you gift." Fang Hao said.

The reason why Fang Hao dared to break through the bottleneck after the war and switched to practicing "Arhat Subduing Demons Magical Skills" was because he valued the character and martial arts of the Seven Heroes of Wudang. To be honest, it did seem a bit like bullying honest people, and he also owed Zhang Songxi a favor.

"Master Fang Xiang, you underestimated me. I didn't know that the head of the palace escort had come to you for help. You came hundreds of miles away to lead the army to wipe out the four heroes of Hongze. You are worthy of your reputation of being unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness!"

Zhang Songxi said sternly: "How can I embarrass the reputation of Xiangzhu with my little calculation? Let's just leave it at that and don't say any more."

Fang Hao finally defeated the Hongze bandits, but Zhang Songxi took advantage of the situation. As one of the Seven Heroes of Wudang, he could not do such a thing.

Fang Hao didn't say anything more, but he secretly kept this matter in mind, and decided to repay this favor no matter what in the future.

After Zhang Songxi left, Fang Hao returned to the Hongze Gang stronghold and returned to Dahengshan with Xu Da and others.

Gong Jiujia looked at the precious pearls that she had lost and found again, her joy was beyond words and she kept thanking Fang Hao.

Fang Hao took the opportunity to ask him to smuggle good horses from the north on his behalf, and Gong Jiujia agreed without hesitation.

Horses may be rare in the south, but they are not uncommon in the north, especially in the grasslands farther away.

After the Yuan court ruled the Central Plains, although it increased its exploitation of the Han people in the Central Plains, it also indirectly promoted the prosperity of commerce.

Smuggling some good horses is not a difficult task for Gong Jiujia as long as the operation is kept secret.

Fang Hao arranged for Lu Bo and Gong Jiujia to meet and discuss specific matters, while he turned his attention back to the Arhat Subduing Demon Magic Skill that he had just mastered.

Arhat Subduing Demons Magical Skill, as Shaolin's most exquisite internal skill, combines the changes of yin and yang, hardness and softness. When the internal force circulates in the body, it can be said to be as one wishes.

Among them, the ultimate yin internal force is cultivated through the eight yin meridians, namely the hand taiyin lung meridian, foot taiyin spleen meridian, hand shaoyin heart meridian, foot shaoyin kidney meridian, hand jueyin pericardium meridian, foot jueyin liver meridian, yin wei and yin qiao.

And the extreme yang internal force is cultivated through the eight yang meridians: the hand yangming large intestine meridian, foot yangming stomach meridian, hand taiyang small intestine meridian, foot taiyang bladder meridian, hand shaoyang triple burner meridian, foot shaoyang gallbladder meridian, yangwei, and yangqiao.

Through the Ren Meridian and the Du Meridian, the "two bridges of heaven and earth", the internal forces of Yin and Yang are integrated into one and blend perfectly. When practicing and regulating qi, indescribable comfort is felt throughout the limbs.

"The two energies of yin and yang merge into the devil and Buddha nature, the inner breath of dragon and tiger meet, water and fire work together, yin and yang are harmonized, and life is endless. My magical skill seems to be different from the original Arhat's magic skill to subdue demons." Fang Hao thought to himself.

The original version of the Arhat Subduing Demon Magic Skill only emphasized "concentrating the mind and returning to the origin", but did not have such a dangerous step of "transforming from demon to Buddha". Therefore, the Arhat Subduing Demon Magic Skill that Fang Hao practiced was even more magical.

"The internal force is a combination of yin and yang, and it is endless. The longer it accumulates, the deeper the internal force becomes. It really seems to be endless and never exhausted." Fang Hao couldn't help but say. (End of this chapter)
