If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 50: Lao Shenxian's "Heroic Dragon Skill"

"Zi Fu, I don't want to attack suddenly. I want to be sneaky, restrain my breath, be unpredictable, quietly approach, and attack from the dark. Is that okay?"

Xiaoyu shouted in his sea of ​​consciousness, but there was no fluctuation in his purple palace.

"Zi Fu, ah Zi Fu, you have obviously swallowed a portion of the essence of the Tong Shen Pill, why are you still so stupid and inflexible?"

Xiaoyu was very helpless.

Through Zifu's reaction to the Tongshen Pill, she could be sure that it should be a magical power, or a "superpower" similar to a magical power.

Whether it is a supernatural power or some "special ability", in theory, it can be developed and promoted like other supernatural powers.

But she didn't know how to develop the Purple Palace.

It's not that I don't know at all.

After a few minutes of thinking, she came up with a "dead method" to develop Zifu: use it more and practice more.

Zifu is the real body of Da Mie Ba. To use Zifu more, you should naturally pay more respects to your godfather.

She also has to worship a powerful godfather. Ordinary godfathers are not as strong as hers and can simply behead them with a sword, making it difficult to activate the Purple Palace.

Even if it is barely activated, it can only find flaws in the opponent's skills. It cannot make the Purple Palace operate at full power and for a long time like Hu Chen's clairvoyance.

"Now that I already have Guan Huchen as my adoptive father, as long as he is alive, it will be hard to find a suitable reason to find a new adoptive father."

For a moment, Xiaoyu wanted to throw away all her moral principles.

But even Lu Bu, the "slave of three surnames", did not have three "surnames" at the same time.

"Perhaps it is a good thing that Guan Huchen suffered a disaster. No, Guan Huchen cannot die! If he dies, the Guan family will never provide them with skills and cultivation resources as generously as he did.

Moreover, the purpose of paying homage to the godfather is to upgrade the Purple Mansion.

The purpose of upgrading the Purple Mansion is to flexibly choose the method to kill the father, and then derive the fairy-level breath-concealing technique or invisibility technique.

Once Guan Huchen is dead, Zifu will no longer use him to deduce the "method of killing my father". After all, he is dead, so how can he be killed? Well, the soul of a dead person is still there, but dozens of foster fathers before him had no reaction after death. "

"Is there a situation where I can choose any godfather I want, and choose many powerful godfathers, without others questioning my character?"

Xiaoyu thought for a while and thought of the Xianyang Palace again.

If they entered Xianyang, the young palace maids would seek support from old eunuchs or senior palace maids, and it seemed that even having several adoptive fathers would not work.

Even if a young eunuch pays homage to an old eunuch, there can only be one "ancestor" at a time.

It has nothing to do with a person’s character. Becoming a godfather represents taking a political stand.

How can you stand on the same side and still waver?

Xiaoyu shook her head and gave up the idea of ​​"maybe I could go to Xianyang and give it a try."

"It seems that I can only wait until I am completely free, hide my identity and go to worship my godfather. Now..."

Suddenly, Xiao Yu's mind moved, "Guan Huchen has a Nine-transformation Bone-changing Pill, which can make the innate supernatural power undergo a qualitative change. I wonder if it will be effective for Zifu."

"Godfather, hasn't Grandmaster Qingsong arrived yet?"

During morning exercise the next day, Xiaoyu's tone had a hint of urgency.

The anxiety on her face made Hu Chen feel very relieved.

What a filial daughter!

She was always worried about his disaster and never considered the risk of him suffering a disaster right after taking the Bone-changing Pill, which would lead to the waste of the magic pill. She only wanted him to take the magic pill as soon as possible to improve his magical power and increase his chances of surviving the disaster.

Hu Chen dared to guarantee that even Guan’s family would not be like her, considering his safety far more important than the magic pill.

"Marquis Lieyang will arrive at Feixiandu tomorrow afternoon, and Qingsong Xiaozaomao should show up by then." He was also anxious, but he patiently comforted her.

Xiaoyu didn't know whether to be disappointed or relieved.

Qingsong didn't come, and the magic pill hadn't been eaten by Guan Huchen. When Guan Huchen was killed, the magic pill would be handed over to her. But if Huchen died, not to mention her cultivation resources and skills, who else in the Guan family, except the dead Huchen himself, could tolerate the magic pill that they had spent all the family's wealth to buy being eaten by a "Shaman"?
She had mixed feelings.

"Godfather, Yu'er saw that the knights of the Iron Cavalry Battalion and the Xisha Garrison seemed to be practicing the breathing method." She cheered up and pointed to the knights doing morning exercises on the other side of the threshing floor.

Unlike the narrow Hualong Pass, the Yunlai Inn is very spacious, with a large yard that can accommodate hundreds of carriages. There is also an open threshing ground outside the yard, which can allow hundreds of knights to practice martial arts at the same time.

If Hu Chen really died, she might lose the Guan family's funding and it would be difficult for her to obtain the breathing method of the Guan family's core skill "Tiger Soul Seven Kills". It would be better for her to learn a breathing technique as a backup while Hu Chen is still around.

It is impossible for this group of Western Shu cavalry to practice top-level immortal martial arts, but at least they have a complete breathing method, which must be moderate and peaceful, without side effects.

“Luye Guard is the most elite force of Dashu, and all the soldiers are warriors.

There are very few people like my father who have family martial arts. Most of them are taught training and breathing techniques by the palace instructors.

The Xisha garrison follows a similar model. Once selected and enlisted, they will be taught the most basic martial arts skills.”

"What kind of martial arts are they practicing?" Xiaoyu asked.

Hu Chen glanced at the knights and said slowly: "Most of the Xisha garrison guards have ordinary martial arts such as "Iron Armor Skill", "Eight Wind Swords", and "Meng Family Spear".

If you have made meritorious contributions, you will be rewarded with more advanced martial arts.

The Iron Cavalry Battalion can be divided into three situations.

To be able to join the Luye Guard is one in a thousand.

Promoted from ordinary Luye Guards to Iron Cavalry Guards, they are once again one in ten or even one in a hundred.

In other words, an ordinary cavalry guard is one in a million among the best.

Since he is a rare talent among men, his talent is naturally far beyond that of ordinary people.

People with great talents also have big hearts.

Some people were recruited by the monarch to become the "royal guards" of the Shu royal family who were forever loyal to them, and were given the "Secret of the Immortality of the Sleeping Dragon".

Those with extraordinary talent will have the opportunity to be invited by the Qin military to be taught various magical skills.

For example, the "Xuanwu Zhengang" of the Meng family of the Great Qin, and the "Fire Crow Power" practiced by Marquis Lieyang and his Fire Crow Army.

The third category is those with average talent or a free nature, who are unwilling to serve in the military for their entire lives and are able to cultivate the Mysterious Soldiers True Qi. ”

At this point, a trace of disappointment appeared on Hu Chen's dignified face. "I was originally a third type of person. Now, tomorrow, when Marquis Lieyang returns, I will formally swear allegiance to him and become a second type of person."

"Father, did you join the Fire Crow Army for the Fire Crow Power?" Xiaoyu asked.

Guan Huchen should have already started practicing "Fire Crow Power".

Every night when he was cultivating his inner breath, a burning breath would emanate from it, and through the cracks in the tent, even a hint of fire could be seen.

Hu Chen said: “The Fire Crow Power is more powerful than the Tiger Soul Seven Kills, and is more suitable for me.

But the main reason I joined the Fire Crow Army was because of Marquis Lieyang. Marquis Lieyang was looking for someone with clairvoyance, and my father also had the ambition to establish a career in the Qin Empire.

Compared with other military marquises, Marquis Lieyang rose to prominence the latest. He was appointed a general at the age of thirteen, and was only twenty-one years old at this time. Although he had a bright future, his foundation was relatively shallow. After his father passed away, he would become a deputy general.

In the Fire Crow Army, my status and position will be second only to those old men who followed Marquis Lieyang.

But if you can enter Xianyang hehehe!"

Hu Chen smiled triumphantly and looked at Xiao Yu as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

Xiao Yu laughed with him for a while, then asked, "You said that the Fire Crow Power is more suitable for you. How do you tell if the skills are compatible?"

Hu Chen said: “Although most of the top-level skills have breathing techniques and moves, different skills have different focuses.

Generally speaking, techniques that focus more on refining Qi are more valuable and relatively rarer."

"'Tiger Soul Seven Kills' focuses more on divine will, but I think it's very strong!" Xiao Yu asked doubtfully.

Hu Chen asked, "For immortal martial arts, what is the standard of strength?"

Xiao Yu asked, "Are there any grades for martial arts in the martial arts world, like first, second, third, etc?"

Hu Chen said: “Kung Fu does have different levels, but first of all, there is no specific first or second grade.

Secondly, the level of a technique is determined by its upper limit, but not everyone can reach that limit.

For example, "Tiger Soul Seven Kills" has seven levels.

My father has practiced for a lifetime, but has only reached the fifth level.

Even if the highest level of Tiger Soul Seven Kills can reach the level of 'Ao Xian', what does it mean to me as a father?"

Xiaoyu nodded slightly, practicing martial arts is the same as studying.

Everyone uses the same set of textbooks, which is equivalent to practicing the same secret book. Some people can get into Tsinghua University and Peking University, while others work hard and even repeat their grades several times, but still cannot get into Tsinghua University or Peking University.

Not everyone who practices "Sunflower Manual" can become Dongfang Bubai.

If you give "Nine Swords of Dugu" to Yue Buqun, he won't be able to practice it at all. It would be better for him to practice Huashan Sword Technique honestly.

Hu Chen continued: "The one that suits you best is the strongest."

He pointed to the knights who were wielding weapons and practicing martial arts, "Look at the Iron Cavalry Battalion, some are practicing swords, some are using knives, their martial arts techniques are different, but they all basically use the same internal energy, all based on the Mysterious Weapon Qi.

As long as you practice diligently and are not too dull, you can develop a bit of the spirit from the moves.

The breathing method of "Tiger Soul Seven Kills" can make the secret of the Seven Kills more powerful, but if other martial arts moves are performed, it is not as useful as "Xuanbing Zhenqi".

For warriors who are not suitable for "Tiger Soul Seven Kills", it is better to practice "Xuanbing Zhenqi" which focuses on refining qi, and then slowly develop their own divine moves.

Being a father actually doesn’t quite fit in with “Tiger Soul Seven Killings”.

I am more suitable for practicing the fire-attributed Qigong, and I hope to find the fire-attributed Divine Will True Kung Fu in the future."

Xiao Yu asked curiously, "How do I determine which type of martial arts is suitable for me?"

“I can feel it myself. Even if I practice the breathing technique of Tiger Soul Seven Kills, over time, a hint of fire will be born in my evil spirit.

Also, look at my father’s Red Smoke Horse and Snake Flame Whip, they were both obtained by my father through an adventure.

I share the same ideas with my father, so we are destined to be together." Hu Chen twirled his beard, his face full of pride.

Xiao Yu first offered a few sweet words of flattery, and then said, "Godfather, can you teach me the Mysterious Weapon Qi?"

"Xuanbing Zhenqi" is definitely inferior to "Mianlong Immortal Art", "Huoya Jin" and "Xuanwu Zhengang", but it is still top-notch in the army of Da Shu.

"Why do you want to learn the "Xuanbing Zhenqi"? Didn't your father tell you that when you return to Luodu and meet the ancestors, he will select a more suitable internal training method for you." Hu Chen frowned.

Xiao Yu said helplessly: "You have also seen that Yu'er has almost mastered the sword technique and the heart technique, but he is lacking the method of internal breathing.

The level of "Mysterious Weapon Qi" is not low. I will deal with it for a while. Maybe I can feel my own attributes from the internal breath like my foster father."

Hu Chen opened his mouth, wanting to teach her a lesson about not being too eager for quick success.

But he has been practicing sword with her these past two days.

Needless to say, she has the fierce tiger spirit, and now even her forty-seven sword moves are strictly organized, steady and compact, revealing the demeanor of a master.

It is almost equivalent to the skill of an ordinary Guan family disciple for twenty years.

How could one practice martial arts for twenty years but still not learn the art of breathing?
“The inner breath method of “Mysterious Weapon Qi” is the same as that of “Tiger Soul Seven Kills”, requiring specific scenes and the use of special auxiliary items.

That is the 'Xuanqi'.

If not, how could the 'Luye Guards' become the imperial guards of Shu?
The full meaning of the inner breath can be described only through words. The "Xuanbing Zhenqi" has long been spread in the martial arts world. The king will not use it as the foundation of "Luyewei". "Hu Chen said.

"What kind of auxiliary things does "Xuanbing Zhenqi" need?" Xiaoyu asked curiously.

Hu Chen pondered and said, "The royal family of our Great Shu is named 'Li'. In the Li family's ancestral temple, there is a black iron spear enshrined. To awaken the inner breath of the 'Mysterious Soldier True Qi', one needs to be within three feet of the black iron spear.

It is said that the former owner of the Black Iron Spear, the ancestor of the Li family, was an immortal. "

Xiaoyu felt helpless. Why did the more advanced breathing techniques have password locks?
"Is there a breathing method that doesn't require a 'mysterious device' to assist in sensing the internal energy?"

"Of course there are, there are many, but they are all 'martial arts techniques'." Hu Chen said.

Seeing the disappointment on her face, Hu Chen thought for a moment and waved to the distance, "Song Changqing, come here."

Song Changqing, who was wearing a helmet while practicing martial arts, ran over quickly, bowed, and asked, "General, what do you want from me?"

"You were an apprentice at the Changchun Martial Arts School when you were a child, right?" Hu Chen asked.

Song Changqing was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I studied for three years."

"Did the Immortal Lao teach you the 'Heroic Dragon Skill'?" Hu Chen asked again.

Song Changqing was speechless.

Although his face was covered by a mask, Xiaoyu could still feel his embarrassment and awkwardness.

Most of his faces turned red.

"I asked you a question, why don't you answer it?" Hu Chen said unhappily.

Song Changqing nodded twice and explained anxiously, "Most of the time, I worked as a handyman in the Changchun martial arts hall. I only saw Lao Shenxian once in three years. Not long after I learned the Xiong Long Gong, I was killed by my adoptive father."

He paused, lowered his head, and said in a low voice with extremely complicated emotions in his tone: "In less than half a month, he was taken away by Master Guan, and I never practiced again."

When he blurted out "godfather", Xiaoyu clearly saw the muscles at the corners of Huchen's eyes twitching quickly and his expression was a little dazed.

But he regained his cold and wooden expression almost in an instant and said, "You will teach the "Heroic Dragon Skill" to Yu'er."
