Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 235: Free and Easy Mural
Huang Sixi first walked to the river bank, picked up the iron plate from the middle-aged Taoist's body, and then followed Tianshan Tonglao to Lingjiu Palace on Piaomiao Peak.

On the way, he held the iron plate and read.

Tianshan Tonglao asked curiously, "This Taoist priest is using the Thunder Gate Iron Plate, which has a total of 42 moves of the 'Shu Dao Difficult Plate Method', but he couldn't even block one of my moves, so he certainly can't block a single move in front of you. Why are you interested in his iron plate?"

How could she know that Huang Sixi valued the Lightning Sect's Qinggong: "I have lived in seclusion in the mountains since I was young, and have only been in the martial arts world for a short time. I don't have a deep understanding of many sects. This Taoist priest is a martial arts figure. I picked up his iron plate to learn how to use his master's weapons!"

There was some text on the iron plate. After reading it, Huang Sixi had already learned the details of the "Thunder Above the Nine Heavens" used by the middle-aged Taoist priest.

In fact, this light skill is not higher than "Climbing the Clouds and Riding the Dragon" when jumping in the air, but if you use the iron plate to assist and build a fulcrum in the air, the jumping height can be increased to a higher level.

The iron plate is cast from metal and once thrown into the air, it can't actually bear much force.

Huang Sixi pressed the edge of the card and found that several springs suddenly protruded from the surface of the card.

He secretly judged: "The Taoist priest used the iron plate to jump earlier. It turned out that he was boosted by a mechanism. This mechanism can indeed expand the limit of Qinggong, but if it is used repeatedly, the time it takes to grab and throw the iron plate will also delay the efficiency of Qinggong. It is better to use all the internal strength, which may be faster!"

However, when Huang Sixi jumped high from the ground, he could suspend the iron plate in the air and then use his true Qi to support it, thus building a force-bearing platform to help him continue to climb upwards.

However, after he stepped on the iron plate, it would quickly fall back to the ground, and he would not be able to fall down and pick it up. This kind of high-jumping assist could only be used once.

Therefore, this iron plate can only play a slight role for Huang Sixi, but the effect is not obvious.

"You don't have a deep understanding of the martial arts sects?"

Tianshan Tonglao didn't believe him: "Then how do you know there is a mural of Xiaoyao left on Piaomiao Peak? This is a top secret of our sect!"

Huang Sixi made up a lie: "There was a queen dowager in the Western Xia Kingdom, her name was Li Qiushui, she once told the descendants of the Western Xia royal family about the free and easy murals, I heard it from these royal descendants!"

Tianshan Tonglao's face turned cold: "It turns out that bitch is spreading the secrets of Xiaoyao Sect everywhere! Humph, there is nothing in the world that is too shameless that bitch can't do!"

Her only mortal enemy in her life, the bitch she often cursed in her heart, was the Queen Mother of Western Xia, Li Qiu Shui.

Her expression softened again, and she asked Huang Sixi with a smile, "My dear, are you friends with the descendants of that bitch?"

Huang Sixi expressed his attitude: "I am a Song person. I hate these barbarians who invade Song territory the most. If I run into them, I will kill them immediately. How can we talk about friendship?"

"My dear friend, you are very loyal to your king and your country!"

Tianshan Tonglao is obsessed with martial arts and only wants to dominate a certain area. She is unwilling to endure the control of anyone, so she has no sense of family and country. She always feels that it is self-abuse for a martial arts master to be loyal to the emperor of a certain country and be willing to be bound.

She looked down on Huang Sixi a little.

Huang Sixi then said, "You said I serve my country, that's true! But as for loyalty to the emperor, I hate the most the tyrant emperors who oppress the people. If I run into one, I will kill him anyway!"

Tong Lao remained silent.

She lived in seclusion in Tianshan Mountains and had no contact with the emperor and the people of the Central Plains. However, if she was asked to take the risk of assassinating the emperor in order to prevent the people from being bullied, she would never do it.

She found it difficult to understand Huang Sixi's behavior. Huang Sixi clearly possessed extraordinary martial power that was superior to that of other human beings. He should have been enjoying all the happiness in the world and having the power of life and death. Why did he have to make himself suffer and worry about the lives of irrelevant people?

The Lingjiu Palace she created was a place where she could have the power of life and death and live happily alone.

Soon, she led Huang Sixi to the top of Piaomiao Peak.

There are a total of eighteen natural barriers in Piaomiao Peak, and every two of them are guarded by a group of palace maids. In order to facilitate the control of Lingjiu Palace, Tong Lao divided the palace maids into nine groups, and each group set up camp at a natural barrier. There are nearly a thousand people in these nine groups.

The palace maids who followed Tong Lao out only accounted for one-ninth of the people in Lingjiu Palace.

However, with Tong Lao leading the way personally, no palace maid dared to stop them whenever they passed a dangerous Piao Miao Peak.

After a while, Tong Lao and Huang Sixi arrived at the main peak of Piaomiao.

A bluestone avenue came into view.

This stone path is estimated to be about two miles long. At the end of the path, a huge stone fortress stands tall. On each side of the fortress gate is a stone-carved eagle, more than three meters tall, with a sharp beak and huge claws, looking extremely majestic.

Tong Lao raised her hand and pointed forward: "That stone fortress is the main altar of Lingjiu Palace!"

The stone fort is grand in scale and majestic in appearance, and is adorned with rare gemstones and agates everywhere, which shows how luxurious its owner is.

Huang Sixi followed Tong Lao all the way through the stone fortress palace complex, passed through a courtyard garden, and finally came to a rockery.

This rockery is more than ten feet high.

Tong Lao said to Huang Sixi: "This is a mechanism I set up, specially used to cover the entrance to the mural cave..."

On the other side, he went around to the rockery and pulled the trigger. The rockery moved away with a "boom", revealing a tunnel entrance that was two people high.

Tong Lao took down the tinder and torch that had been set up for a long time beside the cave entrance, lit them, and entered the cave entrance first: "Please follow me, little friend!"

Huang Sixi followed in immediately.

Wait until the two figures disappear deep into the cave.

At the other end of the garden, hundreds of palace maids from the Vulture Palace could not help but start discussing:
"The Lord told us to stay a hundred feet away, so we'd better not get close to the cave entrance!"

"If that man plots to murder the Lord in the cave, will we just ignore it?"

"That man had a decisive battle with the Lord at the foot of the peak. His martial arts skills are not inferior to the Lord's. If he wanted to murder the Lord, he could have done it at the foot of the peak instead of waiting until now!"

"Perhaps he is trying to trick the Lord into leading the way so that he can enter the cave and observe the martial arts on the murals! Once he learns the martial arts on the murals, he may attack the Lord!"

"Let's seal off the garden first. If he really dares to assassinate the Lord, we will fight him to the death!"

"He can use invisible sword energy. If it touches someone, they will be injured. If it hits someone, they will die. Even if we put all of us together, we may not be his match!"

"At worst, we can die in his hands, and we will have repaid the Lord's kindness! But we must obey the Lord's orders. The Lord has told us to stay a hundred feet away. We must not enter the cave without permission. Let's just wait for news in the garden!"

"it is good!"

These hundreds of Lingjiu palace maids were all servants of Tong Lao, and were scolded by her on a daily basis. However, their fate was already unfortunate, and they were able to survive because of Tong Lao's rescue. They had a place to stay on Piaomiao Peak and had no worries about food and drink. Most of them were grateful to Tong Lao, and obeyed her orders, and just stood guard outside the cave entrance.

At this time, Huang Sixi had already followed Tong Lao to the end of the cave.

The tunnel he passed through twisted and turned, spiraling downwards, and after he had travelled for several miles, the space suddenly opened up and revealed a huge stone chamber.

These tunnels and stone chambers are complex structures and took at least decades to build, consuming enormous amounts of manpower and material resources.

The nearly 1,000 palace maids in Lingjiu Palace are definitely not capable of building such a magnificent mountain building. It must have been built by the sages hundreds of years ago, and it took generations to reach its current scale.

Look inside the huge stone chamber.

The rocks on all four walls have been polished smooth, like a mirror.

The stone wall was covered with densely packed circles about a foot long, each with various figures carved into it, some human figures, some animal figures, some incomplete text, and some just marks and lines. Next to the circles were numbers like "甲一", "甲二", "乙一", "乙二", etc. There were about eight or nine hundred circles.

Huang Sixi discovered that each circle contained a martial arts move.

All the diagrams in front of him are the essence of Xiaoyao Sect's martial arts.

Tong Lao pointed to the circle of "甲一" and introduced it to Huang Sixi: "This is the starting position of "Tianshan Zhemei Hand"!"

'Jia Er' is the second move of the Zhemei Hand. In sequence, hundreds of patterns of the character Jia are all related to the Zhemei Hand.

When the Broken Plum Hand pattern was finished, 'Yi Yi' became the starting move of "Tian Shan Liu Yang Palm".

'Bing Yi' is the move of "Life and Death Talisman".

Huang Sixi looked at them one by one and found that the eight or nine hundred figures on the mural covered more than ten superior martial arts of the Xiaoyao Sect, but they were not complete.

Huang Sixi asked, "Why aren't there "Lingbo Weibu", "Xiao Wuxiang Gong", "Beiming Shengong" and "Tian Chang Di Jiu Bu Lao Changchun Gong" on the mural?"

Tong Lao was stunned for a while before she answered, "'Lingbo Weibu', 'Xiao Wuxiang Gong' and 'Beiming Shengong' were all created by my master Xiaoyaozi. They are not the ancient martial arts left behind in the murals! As for 'Eternal Spring Gong', that is the supreme martial arts book that my master Xiaoyaozi found outside. It has nothing to do with the murals!"

Huang Sixi glanced at her and asked, "Have you inherited all four martial arts?"

Tong Lao immediately shook her head and said, "Grandma, there are only three disciples in my generation. I am the eldest, that bitch Li Qiushui is the third, and that little thief Wuyazi is the second. My master taught the "Eternal Spring Kung Fu" to me alone, the "Northern Divine Kung Fu" to that little thief Wuyazi, and the "Small Invisible Kung Fu" to that bitch Li Qiushui alone. Grandma, I didn't learn it all!"

Huang Sixi did not question it. Her main internal skill was the "Eternal Spring Skill", and she had not dabbled in the "Small Formless Skill" and "Northern Divine Skill". "What about the "Light Footsteps"? "

Tong Lao put her hands behind her back, with a faint smile on her face: "Grandma, I can use the "Ling Bo Wei Bu", but the condition you put forward is to observe the murals. There is no "Ling Bo Wei Bu" on the murals. You can't force me to teach you!"

She paused for a moment, and then continued, "The martial arts on the mural are enough for you to study. If you still feel it is not enough, then I am willing to teach you the Xiaoyao Sect's Qinggong! But I have no relationship with you, so I need to pay you for teaching me the martial arts!"

Huang Sixi knew that she loved doing business the most, and that everyone traded fairly and got what they needed, so he asked her, "What reward do you want?"

Tong Lao said bluntly: "Go to Xixia and kill that bitch Li Qiushui for me. Anyway, you hate the barbarians. Li Qiushui is shameless. She married a barbarian and gave birth to a bunch of barbarian sons and grandsons who encroached on the territory of the Song Dynasty. Killing her can be regarded as giving relief to the people of the Song Dynasty!"

Huang Sixi was about to reply when he suddenly noticed a line of flashing text on the mural:
"The relics of the famous masters: Contains the martial arts formulas and mental methods of the Lingjiu Palace murals. If you can cure the bloodthirsty disease of the Lingjiu Palace Master, you can read and inherit it!"

Huang Sixi couldn't help but wonder, the 'mural martial arts' should be the "Tianshan Plum Blossom Hand", "Tianshan Six Yang Palm" and "Life and Death Talisman" and other martial arts. There is also a "White Rainbow Palm" which is also a mysterious magic skill on the mural, but what does the bloodthirsty disease of the Lord of Lingjiu Palace mean?
Huang Sixi couldn't help but think of Tianshan Tonglao's "Eternal Youth Kung Fu", a skill that can restore youth every thirty years.

During each rejuvenation period, one must drink fresh blood at noon every day in order to restore one's energy and practice qigong. If one delays for a day or two, one will not be able to drink fresh blood and practice qigong, then the true qi will burst out of the body, leading to death.

Huang Sixi thought: "Could it be that the cure for blood-thirsty disease in the relics of the famous people is to cure the Tianshan Child-Grandma's blood-drinking symptoms?"

Thinking of this, he tried to ask Tong Lao: "The Xiaoyao Sect's "Eternal Youth Kung Fu" can restore youth every thirty years, and during this period, one must drink fresh blood to restore the power! Tong Lao, do you have a special body and need to drink fresh blood?"

Tong Lao said, "Grandma, I have a body that is different. I will always be a girl. Once I practice the "Eternal Spring Technique", my true energy will expand rapidly and collide with my meridians, causing several injuries to my meridians. Grandma, my meridians are damaged, so I must drink fresh blood to maintain the normal circulation of my true energy. Only grandma has this symptom. Others who practice the "Eternal Spring Technique" do not need to drink blood to restore their energy!"

After hearing how Huang Sixi understood the "Eternal Youth Skill", she smiled and said, "My dear, do you also want to practice this mysterious skill? Since I have promised to teach you the "Light Footsteps", it is fine to teach you the "Eternal Youth Skill". But you can't let me teach you the skill for nothing, right? Go and get the head of that bitch Li Qiushui, and I will teach you the art of immortality step by step!"

Huang Sixi said, "Your meridians are defective, but this is not an incurable disease. I can repair your meridians for you! When you regain youth next time, you won't need to drink fresh blood anymore!"

Upon hearing this, Tong Lao suddenly shouted, "You... you really have the ability to repair my meridians? My meridians were damaged when I was thirty-six years old. Nearly sixty years have passed, and my meridians have already taken shape. How can they be repaired as before?"

Huang Sixi replied: "I have learned a medical skill to treat meridian injuries. As long as you are willing to let me feel your pulse, I can tell whether my medical skills are real or not with just a try!"

Seeing that he was confident, Tong Lao asked in confusion, "Even if you really have the ability to diagnose pulses? You just used force against grandma, why are you suddenly helping grandma?"

Huang Sixi pointed at the mural and said, "Of course it's for the martial arts on it. I'll heal your meridians, and you'll let me copy down all the martial arts on the mural. Afterwards, we owe each other nothing. This is a fair trade, and the feud under Piao Miao Peak is over!"

Tong Lao nodded immediately: "If you can really heal grandma's meridian damage, we will definitely have no grudges against each other anymore, and grandma's Lingjiu Palace will be at your disposal from now on!"

She already understood what Huang Sixi meant. This time Huang Sixi came in to observe the murals, and she would inevitably take revenge afterwards. Even if she herself did not dare to fight with Huang Sixi again, she could order her subordinates to trip up Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi didn't want to massacre the people in Lingjiu Palace, nor did he want to be troubled, so he simply cured Tong Lao's illness, and the matter would end there.

After considering it, Tong Lao agreed to let Huang Sixi treat the child.

Huang Sixi used Rama's internal breath to diagnose patients in mid-air. When Rama's true energy flowed through the damaged parts of Tonglao's meridians, the true energy began to linger and nourish.

Tong Lao deeply realized that the meridians in her body that had been damaged for decades were healed one by one by Huang Sixi. She could not hide her gratitude, and the grudge she had towards Huang Sixi naturally disappeared.

After Huang Sixi completely healed her meridians, she immediately took out more than ten secret books from the stone cabinet next to the mural. All of them contained her complete handwritten mural secrets and her experience in cultivation.

Although Huang Sixi had no need for her secret book, he still accepted it.

At this moment, the writing on the mural has begun to change, revealing more than ten key techniques of the Xiaoyao Sect's martial arts.

After Huang Sixi finished reading, the essential inheritance of "Tianshan Six Yang Palm", "Tianshan Plum Blossom Hand", "Life and Death Talisman" and "White Rainbow Palm" were all instilled into Huang Sixi's body one by one.

After Huang Sixi comprehended more than ten profound skills, he stood up and walked out of the stone chamber.

Tong Lao stepped forward to stop him and asked humbly: "My dear friend, you can cure my blood-drinking disease. Can you also cure my loss of power?"

The biggest drawback of "Eternal Youth Kung Fu" is the complete loss of power.

The first time the Child-Fairy of Tianshan regained her youth, it took her thirty days to recover her powers.

The second time he rejuvenated, he would have to wait for sixty days to regain his inner strength.

When she was rejuvenated for the third time, it took her another ninety days to regain her inner strength. During this period, she was like a helpless chicken. Once her enemies came to find her, she had almost no power to resist and was completely like a lamb to be slaughtered.

But if Huang Sixi can solve this problem, she will no longer be afraid of any enemies.

Huang Sixi said: "The loss of all your power does not necessarily mean that you have a physical illness. It may also be that the mental method of "Eternal Spring" itself is flawed. You need to tell me the mental method first, so that I can diagnose you accordingly!"

Tong Lao asked again: "If the mental method is flawed, how would you diagnose it?"

Huang Sixi replied to her: "Of course, we should deduce and fill in the missing content!"

If Huang Sixi had not healed her meridians, she would never have believed that Huang Sixi had the ability to deduce.

But now, she has increased her confidence in Huang Sixi, and regards Huang Sixi as her only hope to complete her mental method.

She invited Huang Sixi: "If grandma passes on the secret method of "Eternal Youth" to you, can you stay in Lingjiu Palace to practice it?"

Huang Sixi shook his head at her: "I have important business to attend to in Dali State and cannot linger here. Whether I am going to teach the Dharma or not, I will leave immediately!"

The complete "Northern Divine Art" and "Lingbo Weibu" are buried in the Wuliang Jade Bi Cave of the Dali Kingdom in Yunnan and Yunnan. As long as Huang Sixi finds the Wuliang Jade Bi, he can inherit these two mysterious skills without even practicing.

Judging from the time, Duan Yu should have left the Dali Palace secretly and went to Wuliang Mountain. Huang Sixi had to rush there as soon as possible to prevent Duan Yu from opening the Wuliang Jade Bi Cave first.
