From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 181: The Hidden Truth of Mysterious Wind and Spiritual Water

"This..." Chen Xuan felt it was a little hot. The object in his hand with a milky scent was so precious!
An ancient secret technique from the Qingnang Dojo!

"Wow!"

This piece of paper has been baptized by the years and has become yellow and brittle. There are also several tears on the edges, and it seems that it will turn into powder if it is pinched.

However, the writing on it was extremely clear, emitting a faint and strange dark yellow light, as if it was alive.

"[Mysterious Wind Spirit Water Hidden True Chapter: The Secret of the Green Bag]!"

Chen Xuan was a little confused. He had thought Hua Liuli was stingy before, but she turned around and gave him an ancient secret technique that was a priceless treasure.

It is also an ancient secret technique passed down by the Qingnang Taoist Temple.

This ancient Taoist temple, which once dominated the three thousand states in the southern region, has disappeared for thousands of years. It is hard to imagine how much Hua Liuli paid in order to find this lost secret technique.

"Senior, this isn't suitable..."

Chen Xuan looked at Hua Liuli. She was practicing the true sutra, which was known everywhere in the world, but the secret technique was different. It was a unique fighting skill, a real secret that was not to be passed on to others.

All the major forces and major venues have hidden and concealed the ancient secret techniques, for fear that they would be spread out!
Seeing the secret art is like seeing a sect.

For example, when Chen Xuan performed the "Purple Sky Dragon Transformation Technique", anyone with a little knowledge would immediately know that this was a tradition exclusive to the Rain Country dragons and the inheritance of the Four Seas Little Dragon Palace.

If a wild cultivator in the mountains and swamps of the Qi-training world were to obtain an ancient secret technique with a known source, it would not be a blessing but a fatal disaster with a high probability of survival.

"What are you afraid of? I'll show you something, and it won't hurt me!"

Hua Liuli looked unhappy, patted her chest, and continued: "The people in the Qing Nang Dojo are all dead. I am now the contemporary Xuan Nu of the Qing Nang Dojo. Sister, I can show my secret technique to anyone I want!"

She looked like she was at the top of the Qing Nang Dojo and was the boss.

Although, it seems that she is the only one in this extinct ancient Taoist temple.

"But..." Chen Xuan was still a little embarrassed.

"Would you spread this [Mysterious Wind Spirit Water Hidden True Chapter·Qing Nang Secret] to outsiders at will?" Hua Liuli asked.

"That won't happen. I'm a tight-lipped person..." Chen Xuan shook his head.

"That's it, you should not only watch, but also learn! You are an extremely promising candidate for practicing the Qing Nang technique. I will reopen the Qing Nang Dojo in the future and let you be the deputy master."

Hua Liuli looked at Chen Xuan, her eyes full of burning anticipation, as if she was looking at a priceless treasure, and said:
"If we two join forces, we'll be invincible!"

"From now on, you will help me and we will steal all the treasures hidden in the secret realms of the world's hidden mountains and seas!"

She believed that Chen Xuan's divine ability was very compatible with the Qing Nang technique. If he delved deeper into this art, he would surely achieve great success in the future.

This alone gave Hua Liuli ample reason to be friendly towards Chen Xuan. She had originally intended to pass on the Qing Nang Technique to Chen Xuan.

"Well, I'll just watch, I may not learn it."

Chen Xuan's scalp tingled at Hua Liuli's fiery gaze.

Unable to refuse the kind offer, he lowered his head to check.

The ancient paper in his hand exuded a faint dark yellow luster, and in the flickering, it faintly outlined the outlines of some mountains and rivers.

"Heaven is high, earth is low; yang is odd, yin is even. One and six are of the same ancestry; two and seven are of the same path; three and eight are friends..."

Chen Xuan was thinking about the densely packed tiny characters on the paper. These were the methods and essentials of practicing the secret technique.

"When Yin and Yang meet, blessings and fortune will last forever..."

These words seemed to possess some kind of magic. As soon as his eyes touched them, it was as if a mysterious force was pulling his thoughts. One after another strange and magnificent pictures appeared before his eyes, with overlapping mountains, thousands of peaks dyed with rosy clouds, spiritual springs rinsing jade, and fairy mist surging... Countless feng shui mountain and lake pictures crowded in his mind.

"The esoteric text and the text on the blue jade were written by the same person."

Chen Xuan suddenly realized that the writing on the green jade was not ugly at all, but rather tended to be natural, like hieroglyphics. Each character was a mountain or a spiritual vein.

"I feel the same way, they are very similar." Hua Liuli nodded.

"Who in the Qingnang Taoist Temple created this secret technique?" Chen Xuan asked.

"That's unclear... [The Mysterious Wind Spirit Water Hidden True Chapter: The Secret of the Green Bag] was written by the ancient immortal [Huangshi Immortal Monarch] of the Green Bag Dojo."

Hua Liuli told Chen Xuan the origin of this secret technique.

Since the Shanhai era, the Saintly Lady of the Nine Heavens has passed down the Feng Shui immortal path of the Earth Virtue and Yellow Qi lineage, which has flourished in later generations.

But in the end, the [Huangshi Immortal Lord] of the Qingnang Taoist Temple inherited the unique skills of the ancient sages and established the great Qingnang Taoist tradition. On this path, he was far ahead of others and stood out from the crowd.

"Throughout the generations, only a handful of people have been qualified to practice the [Mysterious Wind Spirit Water Hidden True Chapter: The Secret of the Green Bag], and they must be direct descendants of the Green Bag Dojo!"

Why is Hua Liuli called the Xuannv of the Qingnang Taoist Temple by outsiders?

It was because she practiced the lost secret of the Qing Nang!

"Could it be related to [Taixuan Zhenjun]?"

Chen Xuan pondered and continued to speculate: "He was lost in the secret realm of Guyao Mountain in the Southern Wilderness."

"Master Taixuan has fallen."

Hua Liuli shook her head slightly and said, "But a thousand years ago, it is said that there was a small group of disciples from the Qing Nang Taoist Temple who were not affected by the accidental death of Master Taixuan, Zhang Tianshi. Their Taoism remained. They searched for Master Taixuan's remains and eventually disappeared into the Southern Wilderness."

She pointed at the green jade stone and continued, "This is a talisman stone that once carried the Qing Nang technique. It was once used in some kind of Feng Shui mountain and marsh formation."

She speculated that the group had successfully entered Guyao Mountain and used this talisman stone to fight against the enemy when they encountered danger.

Chen Xuan rubbed the paper with his fingers and asked:
"Do you suspect these people are now living in Guyao Mountain? Did they manage to bring this blue talisman stone out to warn the descendants of the Qing Nang Taoist Temple in the world not to approach the dangerous secret realm of Guyao Mountain?"

In the secret realm of [Guyao Mountain], there may be a hidden inheritance of the Qingnang Taoist Temple.

This secret news is so shocking.

However, you must know that [Guyao Mountain] is an ancient mountain and sea where gods hide. It can cause the fall of a world-famous true lord. Its level is even higher than [Shangyang Cave Heaven]!
The True Lord is dead, and the probability of others being alive is very small.

Hua Liuli frowned when she heard this, then said in a firm tone:
"It is difficult to practice Taoism. No matter what, I will not retreat halfway because of a word. I will not be willing to give up without giving it a try." Before meeting Chen Xuan, she traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers, explored half of the southern region, and prepared painstakingly for many years. Her cultivation of the Tao is almost bound to the Qingnang Taoist Temple, and it is impossible for her to retreat at the last minute.

"Senior, should we use the cyan jade directly, or should we first go to the White Mist Abyss in the central part of the Southern Wilderness to see what the situation is like?"

Chen Xuan asked.

"The origin of this jade is too strange, it's best not to move it lightly..." Hua Liuli said, falling into deep thought.

Seeing her thinking, Chen Xuan continued to study the paper. As his eyes moved, the light on the words became stronger and stronger. The characters seemed to jump out of the paper, arranging and combining in the air, interpreting every step and detail of the secret practice.

Chen Xuan was immersed in it, and completely forgot everything around him. The only thing in his mind was the mysterious and powerful [Xuanfeng Lingshui Yinzhenzhang·Qingnang Secret].

The unique skills of the immortals.

He was shocked. This technique was too vast and mysterious. He thought to himself, "Its level of mystery is not inferior to the [Five Treasures of the Immortal Body: The Secret of Shangyang]."

This is the third ancient secret that Chen Xuan obtained.

[Zhenwu Seven-Section Sword·Secret], although equally extraordinary and seemingly related to Zhenwu, is incomplete and only has one form, making it inferior to the other two.

As for the "Purple Sky Dragon Transformation Technique" and the "Eight Gates Soul Locking Technique", these are just two ordinary secret techniques and cannot be called secret techniques.

After dozens of breaths.

Chen Xuan wrote down the secret of the Qing Nang, recalled it in his mind, and then returned the paper to Hua Liuli.

"What are you doing? Don't you want to learn this technique?" Hua Liuli was in deep thought and asked when she saw this.

She didn't understand why Chen Xuan suddenly returned the paper.

The secret is vast and profound, like the sound of the great way, with thousands of words and meanings. Ordinary cultivators will feel dizzy and unable to remember a single word after just one glance.

But how long has Chen Xuan been looking at it?
Dozens of breaths!
It would take an ordinary mortal longer than this to just glance at the article!

"I've noted it down. If I want to practice it, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until later." Chen Xuan answered casually.

"You... wrote it down?"

Hua Liuli clutched the paper tightly with her jade fingers, a little absent-minded, and said:

"Chen Xuan, perhaps you've never seen the secrets of ancient techniques before, and you don't know how incredibly difficult they are. Each secret is the life's work of an ancient immortal sage... If you can't remember them, take them back and study them for two months."

She has been practicing the Qing Nang technique for many years, but has only just begun to gain entry. She often forgets and needs to take it out and read it again. Each time, she has a different understanding.

The ancient secret arts are too difficult to learn!

For example, the Secret of the Five-Treasured Military Immortal Body was something that even the top-level old man in Dinglu, who almost condensed his soul and body by revealing the secret, and whose talent was unparalleled, could not understand in his entire life.

The difficulty of the [Mysterious Wind Spirit Water Hidden True Chapter·Qing Nang Secret] of the same level is also unimaginably high.

"It's not too difficult..."

Chen Xuan blinked. Was it as serious as she said? He was just making a note of it, not cultivating it to perfection.

Could it be that the secret of the Qing Nang is so difficult?
But he had memorized the [Secrets of the Five-Zang Military Immortal Body] of the same level the first time he did so.

"I've got it." Chen Xuan recalled in his mind once again the cultivation method of [The Mysterious Wind Spirit Water Hidden True Chapter: The Secret of the Green Bag], every word was clear and there were no mistakes or omissions, so he replied with a firm tone.

confirmed.

Will never forget.

"you……"

Hua Liuli was breathing rapidly, her beautiful eyes staring at Chen Xuan's expression blankly, almost petrified. Did he know what he was saying?
In just a few dozen breaths, I memorized a secret of the immortals.

This is simply horrifying!
There is no one in the world with such strong comprehension!

But Hua Liuli finally discovered that Chen Xuan's expression did not seem fake, but very calm. He really wrote down the secret of the Qing Nang.

On the other side, Xuan Mao completed his mission as the messenger of the underworld, and half of the "Peacock Sutra" that was awakened and inherited in the bloodline of the Lord of Peacock Mountain was written down by Chen Xuan who was multitasking at the same time.

"I have obtained another true scripture of Golden Virtue and White Qi." Chen Xuan was satisfied, and his consciousness returned to his body, merging the two into one.

"Meow~"

The small underworld retreated, and the black cat finally had time to turn around and look at Chen Xuan, staring at him with wide eyes.

"Ah! Did Chen Xuan write down the secret of the Qing Nang?"

She was also shocked. Although she had known that Chen Xuan was extremely talented, she had not expected it to be to this extent.

"This exaggerated comprehension ability even surpasses the legendary [Immortal Seed] level of a generation of geniuses, but why is Chen Xuan's name not recorded in the Heavenly Fate Immortal Seed Atlas?"

Black Cat muttered doubtfully, "Could it be that the physical body is holding it back?"

This possibility is very high.

Because, under normal circumstances, there is no chance to condense the soul and body in the three realms of the [Mortal World]. Even if Chen Xuan has a very high comprehension ability, it is useless.

"It's a very normal thing..." Chen Xuan thought to himself. He felt that Hua Liuli and Xuanmao were so startled that they lost some of their master's demeanor.

Hua Liuli took a deep breath, then took back the paper carrying the secret of the Qing Nang, and said with emotion:

"Chen Xuan, you remind me of an old friend."

Chen Xuan asked doubtfully, "Who?"

Hua Liuli fell into memories, a trace of melancholy in her eyes, and then she slowly uttered a name:
"Southern Crown."

Southern Crown?

Since Chen Xuan started practicing Taoism, he has been wandering in the remote southern wilderness and Chu area, and has never heard of this name.

"【Wanshizun】?" he asked curiously.
