Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 396: Breaking the Wall and Preaching

Huang Sixi opened the lid of the box and a dazzling light hit his face.

Inside the box was a pure white, sparkling jade seal.

The seal is carved with a pattern of five intertwined dragons, and the casting craftsmanship is exquisite, but a corner of the seal is missing, which has been replaced with gold. This was a flaw left behind when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty.

Looking at the bottom of the seal again, there is a bird-shaped seal character engraved with the words "Received the Mandate from Heaven, May You Live Long and Prosperous", which is truly the imperial seal and the Heshi Bi.

Huang Sixi stretched out his fingers to touch the surface of the seal and felt an indescribable electric shock force invading his body along his fingertips.

This strange power was chilling and penetrated into his meridians like a wild horse escaping from the border, then followed every acupuncture point, big and small, and spread to every part of his body.

If an ordinary master were invaded by this cold energy all over his body, his qi and blood would solidify.

What's even more terrifying is that the cold force does not last long. There is another hot current in the He Shi Bi, which follows closely and begins to rush into Huang Sixi's body like a mountain torrent.

The two forces of cold and hot alternately invaded Huang Sixi's meridians, violently and chaotically, and made him feel as if there were tens of millions of burrowing rats running around in his body, causing his blood and qi to swell and his meridians to seem like they were about to explode.

It was only a brief moment, but the pain caused by the He Shi Bi to the human body had exceeded the tolerance limit of ordinary people.

At the same time, the He Shi Bi was also radiating unparalleled spiritual shocks, forming countless illusions in Huang Sixi's mind. It was as if he was trapped in an irresistible nightmare, causing him to feel irritable and desperate.

With Huang Sixi's current martial arts skills, he would immediately feel discomfort in his meridians after touching the He Shi Bi. He had to use his immortal qi to suppress the cold and hot wall forces.

But the immortal qi must not be interrupted, otherwise Huang Sixi's spirit and meridians will fall into the invasion of He Shi Bi's power again.

He couldn't help but think, no wonder Ning Daoqi guarded the He Shi Bi, a rare treasure from the ages, but did not use this wall to practice his skills. The impact of the strange force within the wall was too strong, and if he was not careful, he would risk going astray.

The key is that the power of the He Shi Bi is completely different from the true power in the evil emperor's relics.

The true essence of the relics can be refined and absorbed to enhance internal strength, while the He Shi Bi force is purely destructive to the human body.

Huang Sixi could clearly feel that if someone insisted on using the power of the Heshi Bi to practice martial arts, the only effect would be to cleanse the marrow and strengthen the muscles.

This He Shi Bi has the potential to transform the human body and strengthen the ability of the meridians to carry true energy.

How did Huang Sixi get the double internal force? At the beginning, he used the Iron Shirt magic to widen his meridians, causing the capacity of his internal Qi to double.

He Shi Bi Li is actually a higher level of Iron Shirt magic, which can expand the meridians and acupoints of the human body several times, so as to increase the capacity of true Qi and speed up the circulation of true Qi.

However, using the He Shi Bi to temper the body is extremely dangerous. When absorbing the wall force, it is very easy to cause damage to the meridians. In the mildest case, the martial arts will be lost, and in the worst case, the person will die on the spot.

In the original Tang Dynasty martial arts world, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling broke the He's Jade into pieces and absorbed the He's Jade directly into their bodies, which allowed them to change their acupoints and meridians and avoid the danger of going astray.

If Kou and Xu did not absorb the Heshi Bi, they would not be able to withstand the damage caused by the Bi.

It is precisely because of this fatal flaw of the He Shi Bi that the masters of every dynasty, after snatching the He Shi Bi, would invariably seal it up in bronze containers and hide it. They merely regarded the He Shi Bi as an imperial seal for fighting for power, rather than a secret treasure for practicing martial arts.

After Huang Sixi verified the power of the Heshi Wall, he decided to seal it up temporarily.

As a result, the moment his fingertips left the wall, a strange light suddenly flashed on the wall.

He looked intently and found a line of light text emerging from the wall. When he saw the words "A Chinese Ghost Story: The Jianghu, All in It!" that broke through the wall, he immediately showed a surprise.

Originally, he thought that the Heshi Bi was a rare treasure for practicing martial arts, but he didn't expect that it could also help him to break through the wall and go to a new world. He closed the copper box with great expectation.

Then his gaze turned to Ning Daoqi.

Ning Daoqi saw that he did not show any abnormality when touching the He Shi Bi, and his expression remained the same as before, which showed that he had forcibly suppressed the erosion of the He Shi Bi's power.

Ning Daoqi couldn't help but admire him secretly. Huang Sixi had already surpassed the ordinary in both his inner strength and spiritual cultivation. It was very likely that he had reached the supreme realm of breaking through the void.

He has been ranked number one in Middle-earth for decades and has always been arrogant. Even when he heard of Huang Sixi's great reputation of killing many masters, he did not feel afraid.

This is also the reason why he dared to accept Li Yuan's invitation and participate in the struggle for supremacy between the Li and Song clans.

However, after he personally fought with Huang Sixi today, he knew that the title of 'number one person in Middle-earth' would definitely change.

Huang Sixi really had the ability to kill him just now, but he stopped at the critical moment. He thought that Huang Sixi showed mercy to him for the sake of the righteous sect.

He was not ignorant of the good and evil, so he decisively offered the Heshi Bi.

Seeing Huang Sixi looking at him, he expressed his attitude again: "I will leave Dongdu immediately and return to the Taoist temple to live in seclusion. I will never interfere in the disputes in the world again!"

"It's okay to interfere!"

When Huang Sixi heard that he was going to leave, he immediately tried to persuade him to stay: "The Li family was able to invite Ning Sanren to take charge, so they must have offered conditions to make Taoism flourish. I can also convince the Song family to make Taoism the state religion and Ning Sanren the state teacher in the future!"

"This one……"

Ning Daoqi suddenly became confused: "With your martial arts ability, you don't need the help of outsiders like me. Can you tell me why you want to recruit me?"

"For the sake of preaching!"

Huang Sixi said: "After the new dynasty is established in the Central Plains, I would like to invite Ning Sanren to preach in Liaodong, the Western Regions, and the Northern Desert, including Tubo and Dongying. I hope that all these places outside the Great Wall will respect the Dao Sect as their master!"

Ning Daoqi was already an old man in his nineties, but when he heard such an invitation, he suddenly became full of vigor and vitality. He wished that there would be Taoist believers all over the world.

When the Li family recruited him, they only promised to respect Taoism within the territory of China. Huang Sixi even expanded the scope and even included the areas outside the Great Wall into Taoism. How could he not be happy?

But he also knew the difficulty of this task, and sighed to Huang Sixi: "Mobei, the Western Regions, and Tubo are all barbarian lands with many beliefs and sects. It is probably very difficult for our Taoist sect to preach there, and it is possible that we will return empty-handed after decades!"

Huang Sixi said casually: "If anyone dares to stop you, Ning Sanren, from preaching, I will send soldiers from the Central Plains to negotiate with them. I promise to clear the way for you to preach, and I will also build a Taoist temple for you. From now on, you can recruit believers at will and send them to foreign lands!"

Ning Daoqi was suddenly surprised. This kind of support was unprecedented.

But Ning Daoqi always felt that Huang Sixi invited him to preach for other purposes, and he couldn't figure out Huang Sixi's thoughts for a while.

He accepted Huang Sixi's invitation first. No matter what Huang Sixi's plan was, it would be beneficial to the prosperity of Taoism. When the Central Plains was unified in the future and the missionary work was truly put into action, it would not be too late to see Huang Sixi's intentions then.

"I am willing to do this great cause for the benefit of my sect while I am still alive!"

Ning Daoqi suddenly pointed in the direction of the palace: "But before that, we need to solve Li Tang's interference first!"
