Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 219 Yin Zhong visits the Hundred Martial Arts Association

Lu Ping was also deeply shocked.

The four sacred beasts sacrificed themselves to protect the four major martial arts circles and preserve the Shenzhou continent...

Such a setting has never appeared in any of the Jin Gu Qun Xia novels or Hong Kong comics. Even compared with the setting of the Ninth Session in Jin Guangzhong, it is not exactly the same.

He had read about the loss of earth energy in China, the shattering of the continent's mountains and rivers, and the evolution of the four major martial arts in some of the books he read at home, but there was nothing about mythical beasts or spiritual veins in them.

Beside him, Xiao Yuer exclaimed in a low voice: "No wonder it's called the 'Suzaku Dynasty', so this is the reason..."

Suddenly, another person asked loudly: "Master Shen, if the Vermillion Bird Spiritual Vein is taken away, what will happen to us?"

“If the spiritual vein is lost, the entire Southern Martial World will be plagued by natural and man-made disasters. The rumored scene of wind and rain, mountains and rivers in turmoil will reappear. This continent will gradually separate from the Shenzhou Continent and finally drift into the endless void.”

Shen Lang replied: "Not to mention the Suzaku Dynasty, it will collapse in a few years and cease to exist, and the royal family will also be extinct due to poor protection."

The royal family was the first to suffer, and there was no guarantee that ordinary people would not become the second or third...

This is a huge disaster!

Hearing this, all the heroes in the martial arts world gasped.

Shen Lang continued, "The remoteness of Japan and the small land area have led to unstable geography. Although a dynasty and political power have been established, there are still warlord forces outside. Whether it is the court or the martial arts world, the situation is quite chaotic, so they have paid attention to the spirit veins of the divine beasts."

The heroes of Jianghu do not care why this phenomenon occurred in Japan. They only know that their things cannot be taken away by others.

"I didn't expect those Japanese people to be so vicious!!"

"Should we make this matter public and recruit more people from the underworld to help?"

"Where is the Suzaku Spiritual Vein? Should we gather more people to protect it?"

Everyone was talking about it, and although they all had their own opinions, they were ultimately united in their hatred of the enemy and formed a united front.

After hearing what everyone said, Shen Lang wanted to say something, but Shi Yanwen spoke first: "The location of the Vermillion Bird Spiritual Vein is very important. I'm sorry that we can't tell you about this."

"But please rest assured, Yanwen has already sent enough and absolutely trustworthy fellow martial artists to guard the location of the Vermillion Bird Spiritual Vein, so for now everyone can focus all their energy on dealing with the Western Sword School."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lang looked at Shi Yanwen strangely, as if he realized something, but in the end he didn't say much.

However, Lu Ping saw his look clearly.

Lu Ping also understood instantly.

It is possible that Shi Yanwen, and even Shen Lang, do not know the location of the Vermillion Bird Spirit Vein, but if this is said, if someone with ulterior motives hears it, they will only think that they know it and turn their target to them.

In this way, the real Suzaku spiritual vein can be prevented from being persecuted.

Perhaps Shen Lang intended to do this himself, but Shi Yanwen saw through his thoughts, so he decisively took all the responsibility and danger on himself.

The parliament ended quickly. The purpose of convening the parliament was just to let Shen Lang explain Japan’s true intentions to everyone in order to completely rectify people’s hearts.

Perhaps there was a trap there, waiting for someone to jump in, but Lu Ping couldn't be sure for the moment.

After the heroes dispersed gradually, Shi Yanwen and Shen Lang secretly went to the inner room to talk alone. No one knew whether they were planning something.

The scale of the Baiwu Association is huge, so naturally there are "core members" and "core members of the core".

The former are the main figures from various sects and rangers who came to the meeting just now, while the latter are people from Zhengqi Villa and Hulong Villa based on the former.

In terms of closeness, Xiao Yuer and Ye Kai belong to the latter, while Lu Ping can only be considered the former.

As for Shen Lang, he should have belonged to the former, just like Lu Ping.

It was just because of his status and reputation that he was able to become an important figure on par with Shi Yanwen as soon as he arrived.

Lu Ping looked around and finally chose to walk towards where Wang Lianhua was standing. At this time, he was staring at the curtain that separated the lobby from the inner part, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Standing next to Wang Lianhua, Lu Ping spoke a heart-wrenching word.

"As expected, people at the level of heroes are different. They even chat in secret without letting us know!"

"Eh? Senior Wang, why are you standing here and not going in? Could it be that you were excluded by Senior Shen Lang and Senior Shi Yanwen?"

"No way, no way..."

Hearing this sarcastic voice, Wang Lianhua paused, glanced at Lu Ping with an unfriendly look, and finally chose to endure the humiliation.

"Boy, I heard that you saw the Flame Demon take action in Tianyun Mountain. Do you think the two of them can defeat the Flame Demon together?"

Lu Ping did not answer, but said one sentence -

"Everyone in the martial arts world says that Shi Yanwen's martial arts and Shen Lang's wisdom are what conspirators fear the most; but I think that Shi Yanwen's wisdom and Shen Lang's martial arts are truly unfathomable." Wang Lianhua exclaimed "Huh" when he heard this, and looked Lu Ping in the eye again.

"I didn't expect you to be able to see this level. No wonder you have made such a great name in the martial arts world at such a young age. You are indeed very intelligent."

There was no trace of shame for plagiarism on Lu Ping's face. Instead, he straightened his back with pride: "It's just empty reputation... just floating clouds."

The two were chatting when suddenly a man walked in, glanced around the hall, walked towards Shangguan Haitang, and then handed over a visiting card.

Shangguan Haitang was stunned after reading the visiting card, but still ordered: "Please invite the person in."

"Yes!"

After the servant left, several people nearby asked, "Master, who is visiting?"

Shangguan Haitang handed the visiting card to everyone to take a look, and several people immediately showed the same expression as Shangguan Haitang.

This scene immediately aroused Lu Ping’s curiosity, so he turned around and looked at the door quietly.

After a while, a middle-aged man with strong body, elegant clothes, black hair and white temples strode in. Shangguan Haitang also brought people to greet him.

"Master Shangguan, I am honored to be here."

"Master Yin, I have long heard of your great name!"

After hearing the two people's addresses, combined with the visitor's appearance and aura, Lu Ping instantly understood the identity of the person who placed the items.

Yin Zhong!

"Wow, now everyone is here..."

Zhengqi Villa, Hulong Villa, and Yujian Villa, the only three villas left in the world that are qualified to become the "No. 1 Villa in the World" in the Fengyun Monument, have finally gathered here at this time and place.

"Is that person Yin Zhong?" Xiao Yuer leaned close to Lu Ping and asked in a low voice.

"Not bad!"

Lu Ping nodded, and when he looked at Yin Zhong with his true energy focused eyes, he saw a ball of dazzling white light. He couldn't help but think to himself: This guy is really strong!

Warriors can sense the energy aura of a person. The stronger the opponent is, the stronger the energy that can be sensed. This energy will appear in the form of a ball of light.

In other words, the brighter and larger the ball of light seen in perception, the stronger the person is and the fuller his energy and spirit are.

Among the people he has met so far, Shi Yanwen, Cang Jingren, Shen Lang, and Liu Sheng Guiku all belong to the same level. When he uses his perception to look at them, he sees a ball of light as bright as an incandescent lamp.

It’s just that the color of each person’s light ball is different, which is determined by their respective internal force attributes.

The light ball of the Fire Demon was brighter than this group of people, and its volume was about twice theirs.

Yin Zhong is even more powerful than the Flame Demon!

Since Yin Zhong is so strong, he should be able to defeat the Flame Demon with ease. Does that mean I can be sure that I don’t have to fight the Flame Demon?

Even though he had figured out the 'armor-breaking' trick a few days ago, Lu Ping still found it difficult to deal with the Flame Demon's strength.

By the way, I wonder if Yin Zhong has any way to break the armor?

If not, could he rely on his skills to inflict real damage?
Shangguan Haitang invited Yin Zhong to sit down and asked him the reason for his visit.

"It's nothing serious, actually."

Yin Zhong laughed, looking like a kind, harmless old man: "As the owner of the manor knows, Yin has accepted the challenge of the Flame Demon, and will have a decisive battle with him in Tianyun Mountain soon."

"But at present, the 'Hundred Martial Arts Association' is the main force against the 'Western Sword School', so Yin thought of going back and forth between the two sides to pass on the news."

Shangguan Haitang smiled cheerfully: "So that's how it is. The Western Sword School is the scourge of the Southern Martial Arts World. This should be the responsibility of the Dragon Guard Villa. But since the Flame Demon took the initiative to attack the Sword Guard Villa, the Dragon Guard Villa can't intervene too much. We can only trouble the Second Manor Master Yin for the time being..."

"Yin is just testing the waters for everyone in the martial arts world. If I win by chance, that would be the best. If I am not strong enough, I will have to rely on Mr. Shi..."

Yin Zhong has been moving between various underworld forces for many years and is well versed in the ways of the world. In addition to fighting with his fists, he also knows how to form alliances and use both kindness and force, so he spoke very politely.

Shangguan Haitang was the same, smiling throughout the whole process.

At first, Lu Ping was confused and thought that the two people just didn't know what to say, so they were just being polite. But gradually, he heard the deeper meaning behind their words -

Although Yin Zhong was polite, he was actually saying, "This is Yu Jian Villa's place, you Baiwu Association should not interfere in my duel."
Shangguan Haitang responded, "We are generous and will let you go first. It's okay if you lose. Hulong Villa will cover for you."
Yin Zhong retorted, "Hulong Villa is nothing, Zhu Wusi is just a loser who is blinded by women. Even if I lose, there is still Shi Yanwen in the martial arts world, it is not your turn to Hulong Villa."

After thinking for a while, Lu Ping finally figured it out.

Perhaps it was because Yu Jian Villa and Hu Long Villa were both eyeing the title of 'No. 1 Villa in the World' on Feng Yun Monument that there was such a weird atmosphere and conversation.
