Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 87 A Gift Package from Persia

Lin Chaoying was soon invited over by Wang Chongyang. Four great masters gathered together, and Huang Yaoshi used acupuncture to wake up the unconscious Persian assassin. At the same time, he pressed several of his vital points, causing his muscles and bones to become weak and unable to muster any strength to resist.

"What's your name?" Lin Chaoying asked first.

The Persian assassin did not answer this simple question. He had undergone very rigorous training and had deep insights into interrogation techniques. He knew that the general interrogation process was to proceed step by step, gradually breaking down the defenses of the person and then asking the core questions.

Asking the name is just the first step. Once the name is asked, the next step is to talk about hometown and relatives, gradually moving forward until the real core question is asked.

Seeing that the Persian assassin was not cooperating, Lin Chaoying stepped forward with a smile and pricked the Laogong acupoint on the palm of his hand with a jade bee needle. The poison invaded and was mixed with a feeling of numbness and pain, as if ants were drilling in through the cracks in his bones and constantly gnawing at him.

The Persian assassin groaned a few times, then stimulated a special acupoint in his body without hesitation, and was about to fall down and faint.

Coma is sometimes a way for people to protect themselves when they are in severe pain and can no longer bear it.

The Persian assassin has mastered the technique of voluntarily falling into a coma, and he doesn't even need the power of internal energy. As for the fact that he fell into a coma just after being tortured, can this be considered well-trained?
He understands! He understands everything!

There are only two steps to torture: the beginning and the killing.

Why should you endure a round of suffering first if you can suffer less?
Huang Yaoshi was quick with his hands and eyes, and he inserted two silver needles into the Persian assassin's forehead and temple respectively, stimulating his spirit and making it impossible for him to fall into a coma.

"Answer my question!" Lin Chaoying stared into the eyes of the Persian assassin, and a faint light gradually appeared in her eyes.

This is the soul-transferring technique. Qiu Chuji turned his head and glanced at Wang Chongyang.

Wang Chongyang coughed dryly and turned his eyes slightly away.

The Persian assassin had a strong will and was not easily tamed by Lin Chaoying, but he was severely injured after all and was just a mortal. According to the Quanzhen Sect's monastic theory, only by cultivating the Yang Shen can the spirit truly break free from the control and constraints of the physical body.

In other words, no matter how strong your will is, it is possible for you to be dragged down by physical fatigue and pain.

"My name is Hassan."

"Your name is also Hassan?" Lin Chaoying showed a surprised look. She had heard of the name of the old man in the mountains, Hassan, but she didn't know much.

At the same time, she said to Qiu Chuji and others: "He said his name is Hassan. Hassan is Huoshan, which is the name of the old man in the mountains."

"Huo Shan was a peerless master in Persia a hundred years ago. There are many legends about him in Persia."

"We are all called Hassan. Every ten years, four of the most outstanding successors will be selected and called 'Hassan'. We are allowed to enter the mountain garden, where there are the most beautiful girls, the most mellow wine, the best silk, and the most powerful martial arts and weapons. We live there for a year and then are sent out of the garden to be tested."

"Everything we do throughout our lives is to return to the garden and become the real and only Hassan."

Lin Chaoying did simultaneous translation so that everyone else present could understand.

After hearing this, several people looked at each other in bewilderment. Isn’t this just training death warriors?
There has always been no shortage of assassins in the Central Plains, but assassins as powerful as the Persian assassin in front of him have always been rare.

After all, the strong must have their dignity. A "death warrior" who has lost himself will find it difficult to reach the true pinnacle even with the help of magical powers and precious medicines.

"Who do you obey?" Lin Chaoying asked again.

"We obey our own orders and bring deterrence to the world. Only when people feel fear will they truly yearn for light." A fanatical look appeared on the Persian assassin's face, and he was about to break free from Lin Chaoying's control of the soul-transferring technique.

Lin Chaoying immediately increased her skills, her eyes as deep as black holes, suppressing the Persian assassin's resistance.

"Uncle Lin, ask him about his martial arts!" Qiu Chuji was only interested in this.

Lin Chaoying asked, "What martial arts do you know?"

"Assassin swordsmanship, sand lizard marching technique, concealment technique, potential stimulation technique, bloodthirsty explosion technique, inverted body and meridian transfer technique, overlapping and replacing hands and feet technique, smoke blowing technique, sand hitting technique, lurking technique, bone shrinking technique..." said the Persian assassin, listing off a long list.

Persian martial arts are not like Central Plains martial arts, which have names that sound more meaningful and often go straight to the core.

Qiu Chuji listened to Lin Chaoying's translation, compared it with his impression of the Great Shift of the Universe, and wondered which one... or which ones of the martial arts mentioned by the Persian assassin were the predecessors of the Great Shift of the Universe.

It is understandable that Qiankun Da Neng yi, a martial art that stimulates potential and transfers multiple forces but is not so radical, could not have been completely passed down from Persia. It is more likely that the people in the Ming Cult improved it based on some Persian martial arts passed down from the Persian Ming Cult.

Just like Shaolin martial arts and Indian martial arts, they are actually two different things.

In the early stage of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, Daiqisi, the Purple-Robed Dragon King, who was one of the four Dharma Kings of the Ming Cult and the Holy Maiden of the Persian Ming Cult's headquarters, came to the Eastern Ming Cult to steal the Great Shift of the Universe. Although it is said that the Great Shift of the Universe of the Persian headquarters has been lost, it does not make sense if you think about it carefully.

The more likely possibility is that the Persian Ming Cult simply coveted the Great Shift of the Universe and was just looking for an excuse.

"Recite aloud all the martial arts secrets you know." Lin Chaoying knew what to ask next without Qiu Chuji's reminder.

The Persian assassin began to recite. Huang Yaoshi found a pen and paper and quickly translated and recorded. For the few relatively unfamiliar words, he would first write them down in Persian and then make a final conclusion after discussing them with Qiu Chuji and others.

An hour later, Lin Chaoying finally finished asking all the questions related to martial arts, and she seemed quite depressed.

The circulation of true Qi can activate the Soul Transfer Technique, but practicing this unique spiritual martial art consumes more than just true Qi.

If it weren't for the fact that Wang Chongyang finally cooperated with Lin Chaoying to practice the Jade Girl Heart Sutra some time ago, and passed on part of the content of the Nine Yin Scriptures to Lin Chaoying, which not only restored her skills but also improved them, she would not have been able to hold on for so long.

After obtaining the Persian martial arts secrets, they arranged for their disciples to guard the Persian assassin. The four of them moved to another place and invited Duan Zhixing, Hong Qi and Zhou Botong to start a new round of discussion on the Persian martial arts at hand.

Discussing and verifying martial arts is the theme of this Heroes Conference.

This wave of gift packages from the Persian assassin was simply delivered to your door. As for hiding it and not sharing it with Duan Zhixing and Hong Qi, there was no need for that.

Persian martial arts are not stronger than Central Plains martial arts, it’s just that they are unique.

Just like when people go to a foreign country, they always find everything interesting, but it doesn’t mean that foreign things are better.

Only by combining the strengths of everyone, analyzing them quickly and completely, and then incorporating them into one's own martial arts philosophy, can one be considered truly inclusive.

Qiu Chuji held in his hand the second edition of the manuscript translated by Lin Chaoying and Huang Yaoshi. He mobilized his true Qi and tried the part that stimulated the internal organs and strengthened the potential. His face suddenly turned red and blue, and the surging true Qi began to grow continuously, but it caused a slight and undetectable shake to the foundation of his body.

"Eh! This little loss is bearable for me!" Qiu Chuji thought to himself and immediately understood the reason. In just less than a year, he grew from a whiteie who knew nothing about martial arts to the most powerful man in the world. In addition to cheating, he also relied on the help of elixirs and elixirs.

Neither the medicinal power of the elixir nor the effectiveness of the pill have been completely stimulated. A considerable amount of the medicinal power is still retained in the body, which is equivalent to the potential hidden in his body.

It is believed that the reason why Zhang Wuji was able to practice Qiankun Da Shift to the sixth level in a short period of time is that a lot of energy is accumulated in his body, including the true qi supplied to him by Zhang Sanfeng and the Wudang heroes when he was young, the various soups and medicines fed to him by the Butterfly Valley Medical Immortal Hu Qingniu, the nourishment of the magical peaches in the secret realm of Kunlun Mountain, and the nourishment of the true qi of the Nine Yang Divine Art.

If not, even if the Great Shift of the Universe is not as dangerous as the original Persian Potential Stimulation Technique, it is definitely not that easy to practice.

With Yang Xiao's martial arts skills, he could only master the basics. To put it bluntly, he just didn't have enough potential.

As far as the foundation is concerned, in the entire gold system, apart from the mythical Ah Qing, only Brother Gou is stronger than Zhang Wuji and has more blessings.

"I've tried it, and this potential stimulation technique is pretty good... but you have to take good care of your body first. Otherwise, although your skills will increase dramatically in a short period of time, your body will completely collapse." Qiu Chuji said to everyone.

Then he added: "However... we can also create a temporary explosive martial art and teach it to the right people to give them some life-saving skills."

At this moment, Qiu Chuji thought of the famous "Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method", which is really a model martial art for turning the tide against the odds.

Duan Zhixing said: "I can practice, but I need a lot of nourishment."

"The One Yang Finger of the second level can repair the damage caused to the body after forcibly stimulating the body to activate its potential."

"It can also help everyone practice. With this method, I am confident that I can practice One Yang Finger to the first level within three years. If it is a first-level One Yang Finger, even if I use up my true energy to heal someone, I can recover most of my true energy in seven days at most, and I won't suffer a serious loss of vitality."

"What I'm concerned about is this 'body reversal and meridian transfer method'. We were previously worried that after compressing the true Qi into sword Qi, it would not be preserved in the body, and the Dantian would have trouble bearing it. But if we use this method to temporarily reverse the nature of the meridians, perhaps we can store a large amount of sword Qi in the body first, instead of returning it to the Dantian. However, we still need to regularly vent the sword Qi and gather it again." Wang Chongyang also expressed his opinion.

"If there is a martial art that can lead the meridians to flow in reverse, combined with this method of reversing the body and moving the meridians, the compressed sword energy can circulate in the body like blood, never entering the dantian, and there is no need to vent it. It can solve the problem." Lin Chaoying was quick-witted and did not let herself be restricted by her thoughts. She filled in the missing parts for Wang Chongyang.

"The retrograde flow of meridians is a sign of becoming possessed. How can there be such martial arts in the world?" Wang Chongyang smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Qiu Chuji's heart was slightly moved: "Maybe there is!"

"I just don't know if that person is the same as I guessed."

At this moment, Ouyang Feng, who was mixed in the crowd at the mountain gate and learning the "Small Zhoutian Sword Technique" together, seemed to have sensed something and swept his eyes across the entire venue.

Although the venue was very lively, he did not see his most familiar "old friends".

"Hmph! Discussing martial arts together again?" Ouyang Feng felt very unhappy and somewhat regretful, but he quickly discarded this regret.

At this time, Ouyang Feng naturally knew that Qiu Chuji had concealed the truth from his ears and went down the mountain to do something big.

However, he didn't care. What did the success or failure of the Jin people have to do with him?

It's just a pity that they failed to take advantage of this opportunity to disrupt the rise of Quanzhen Sect. It will be more difficult to target Qiu Chuji in the future.

"Who are you talking about?" Wang Chongyang asked Qiu Chuji.

"This man is naturally Ouyang Feng!" Qiu Chuji did not hide it. With his strength, it would not be difficult to defeat or kill Ouyang Feng, but it would be really difficult to capture him and force him to answer some questions. If everyone worked together, perhaps it would be possible.

“Ouyang Feng? Does he have such ability?” Huang Yaoshi was the first to express his disbelief. It was not that he was narrow-minded, but he had been busy running around for a long time and had finally gotten rid of the label of being the worst of the Five Great Masters. How come Ouyang Feng, who was left behind, still had the confidence?
"Maybe, maybe not... I'm not sure."

"I just know that he is very special." Qiu Chuji said this in a calm tone, without even glancing at Hong Qi.

Seriously speaking, Wang Chongyang, Lin Chaoying and Huang Yaoshi are definitely much stronger than they were in the same time period, but these changes are all due to the radiation influence of Qiu Chuji.

As for Hong Qi and Ouyang Feng, their extraordinary strength existed before they met Qiu Chuji.

Ouyang Feng's occasional "foresight" made Qiu Chuji speculate about his identity, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on with Hong Qi.

Of course, everyone has his own fate. No matter what the secret behind it is, as long as it does not interfere with Qiu Chuji's pursuit of the great path, he has no intention of pursuing it.

"Since Ouyang Feng has such ability, let him hand it over." Lin Chaoying changed the subject back, speaking with a sense of arrogance and banditry.

"He is in the square in front of the temple. Although he has hidden his identity, I can recognize him." Hong Qi said.

"Okay then! Brother Hong will go first and fight with him, then lead him to the back mountain. Once we get there, we will attack together and capture him first."

"We haven't settled accounts with him yet regarding Lin'an's betrayal," Qiu Chuji made the decision.

Although it seemed a bit unethical to lead the other four masters to besiege Ouyang Feng, but how does the saying go... Against the evil demons, we should fight shoulder to shoulder.
