Great Love for All Heavens Begins with Huang Yaoshi

Chapter 96: You are a weak person, not even worthy of being my slave, let alone my disciple.

Kou Zhong and the other two were silent, and couldn't help but wonder what level of martial arts this young man, who was about the same age as them, had reached.

It must not be the innate realm. Judging from the masters I had interacted with before, and then comparing them with my current skills.

Yu Wenzhi, Song Lu and his mother should not have reached the master level. At most, they can be regarded as top masters in the innate realm.

This young man in blue shirt killed Yu Wenzhi with a single blow and easily severed his own mother's heart meridian, which showed that he was a master-level expert.

But from his familiarity with martial arts realms and his boastful attitude, he felt that there was more to it than that. Especially after reading through the "Eternal Life Secret", he understood the essence of the treasure book and secretly thought to himself:

"Could it be a Grandmaster?"

"As your master, it would be unreasonable for me not to teach you anything."

The young man in blue shirt landed on the ground and walked slowly towards an open space.

"Theoretically speaking, 'The Secret of Immortality' is not a martial art, but a secret technique that integrates the profound principles of heaven and earth."

"The idea is that the human body is a small world, and outside the body is another world. So as long as you grasp the natural principles of these two worlds, the inner and outer worlds will merge into one. This wholeness is the unity of man and nature."

"So, the Secret of Immortality is the pinnacle secret of this concept of harmony between man and nature."

Zhuang Bu Ran stood still with his hands behind his back and said calmly:

"It will create a martial arts foundation that is most suitable for you. Now, there is no need to learn the so-called Tao. Just learn the art of self-defense and life-saving. Afterwards, hone your body through killing and fighting, and you will be able to reach higher and higher levels."

He pondered for a while:
"I have to teach you some powerful martial arts. If your martial arts skills are not strong and your methods are not tough, what's the point of killing your master?"

"How dare a disciple disrespect my master?"

Kou and Xu were afraid that this was another test, so they hurried over and bowed.

Zhuang Bu Ran said slowly:

"Master, I have only one question to ask: Do you wish to learn the unique martial arts that will allow you to dominate the martial arts world?"

The two of them looked at each other quietly, unable to believe that the young man in blue shirt would be so kind. He probably wanted to trick them again, but they were unwilling to give up learning.

The more Kou Zhong thought about it, the more he felt at a loss. He replied respectfully:
"My disciple wants to learn swordsmanship, is that okay?"

"Disciple Ziling, what about you?" The young man in blue shirt did not comment.

"I will learn whatever my master teaches me." Xu Ziling was also extremely respectful.

"That's right. Whatever you want to learn depends on what I want to teach."

The blue-shirted youth's words left Kou and Xu silent. Since it all depended on your mood, why bother asking too many questions? They also didn't dare to say too much for fear of being punished.

"Circulating the Six Voids, using the method to manipulate all things. Previously, I only used the water and wind forces of the eight circulating forces to capture Yu Wenhua and his men. Would you like to learn?"

After hearing this, Kou and Xu immediately thought of this miraculous martial arts. They were about to speak when they heard the next words and immediately gave up the idea.

"This martial art studies numerology and medical principles, and follows the innate eight trigrams to create eight kinds of internal energy. Each one has a different nature, but they are united into one through mental training, forming a ball of chaotic energy."

"This ball of true energy is unlike any other internal energy in the world. It requires no guidance, but grows naturally. Using it to defend against the enemy is invincible. However, if it is not controlled properly, the eight forces will flow wildly and backfire on the master."

"Once mastered, it will grow spontaneously within the body, and there's no way to stop it. This will happen until the true energy exceeds the endurance of the practitioner's meridians, and the practitioner will die. This is a heavenly tribulation, also known as the Six Void Poisons."

"Furthermore, in addition to the one that occurs during cultivation, this heavenly tribulation also occurs every twenty years. One must rebuild their meridians and practice mental skills to accommodate the excess true energy. If they succeed, their martial arts will greatly improve. If they fail, their energy will dissipate, their skills will be lost, and they may even be shattered to pieces."

"This cycle repeats itself, and practitioners will eventually die from the heavenly tribulation."

Kou and Xu looked baffled after hearing this. They just wondered how this person could know only some underworld martial arts and still have such an inseparable relationship with the heavenly tribulation.

They have already suffered so much from the black heavenly tribulation that how could they dare to add another heavenly tribulation to themselves? Are they afraid that they will not die quickly enough?

Then, Xu Ziling bowed deeply:
"We are not worthy of this skill, so please have mercy on us, Master."

"This magical skill is too extraordinary, we really can't learn it." Kou Zhong followed and bowed.

The young man in blue shirt said quietly:

"When a person is born, their innate Qi transforms into their limbs and bones. This is compliance, and compliance is in accordance with the laws of nature. However, death is inevitable, so they must reverse the process and refine it back to their innate Qi."

"I have another magical skill that can refine the mind and body into nothingness, so as to achieve ascension to heaven. Are you willing to learn it?" Kou and Xu were afraid of falling into the trap again, and kept nitpicking on the words. When they heard that this skill would eventually refine the body into nothingness, it was really hard to imagine. How could this be about achieving ascension to heaven? It was clearly courting death.

"Oh, I forgot to mention that if you want to master this martial art, you'll face challenges. At the very least, you'll suffer damage to your bones and muscles, leading to disability. At the worst, you'll suffer from incomplete internal organs and lose your life."

The words added by the young man in blue completely discouraged Kou and Xu from studying.

"Master, are all your magical skills like this?" Xu Ziling couldn't help but ask.

"You want to ask about your martial arts and why you can't stand death, right?" Zhuang Buyan smiled.

"Disciple, I dare not." Xu Ziling shook his head quickly.

"Fine wine hurts the liver, so why drink it? Delicious food hurts the stomach, so why eat it? Lust hurts the heart, so why do some people indulge in it? Everyone will eventually die."

The smile on the blue-shirted boy's face was too bright:

"For me, dying while practicing martial arts is nothing more than a worthy death, and I am extremely happy with it."

All of a sudden, Kou and Xu understood that it was no wonder that this martial arts fanatic who loved martial arts so much could have such unfathomable martial arts skills.

"You don't learn this, and you don't learn that. I don't know what to teach you." Zhuang Bu Ran said helplessly:

"I really want to teach you some martial arts that will allow you to dominate the world!"

Xu Ziling said:

"We two disciples really don't dare to trouble our Master. If we have some skills that are not too powerful but can protect us, that will be enough."

"How can you avenge your father if you are afraid of death?" the young man in blue sighed.

"Disciple, we dare not have such an idea." Kou and Xu replied in unison.

"Never mind. Recently, I've been bored and have come up with two mediocre skills."

"One is based on the 'Heavenly Mountain Plum Blossom Hand', encompassing all my learnings. It is called the 'Heavenly Blade', which is achieved through internal energy. The essence of the technique is that everything in the world can be my blade."

"As long as you master this unique skill and channel your inner energy into your fists and palms, they will transform into swords capable of severing metal and severing jade."

"If you channel your inner energy into the stems of the paper grass, they will transform into steel knives and iron rods, indestructible.

"When you reach the peak, all kinds of weapon techniques can be integrated into your boxing skills, making them even more agile and strange than real swords, spears, and halberds."

"Another martial art, the Yi Sword Technique I learned from the Rakshasa woman, I think is too petty. How can a mere human body compare to the myriad phenomena of heaven and earth?"

"I circulate the six voids, apply the principles of all things, combine them with numerology, extract the essence of 'Gui Zang', and then blend it with the sword techniques I know, to create the 'Gui Zang Sword'."

"There are eight great sword paths, divided into Qian, Kun, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, Dui, and Zhen. According to the principles of Guizang, they interact and develop, transforming all phenomena in the world."

"The eight great sword arts are merely the foundation of the Guizang Sword, just like the five great musical scales of Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu. Listening to them alone is extremely boring, but once a musician harmonizes them, they can linger in your ears for three days, and can give rise to a myriad of variations."

Kou and Xu were overwhelmed with emotion when they heard this, but they were also afraid that something was wrong. They thought that maybe a deep pit had been dug in secret, waiting for them to step into it.

"Master, is there anything else you haven't mentioned about these two techniques?" Xu Ziling asked cautiously.

"Are you questioning your master?" Zhuang Bu Ran raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I dare not." Xu Ziling quickly lowered his head.

"Xiao Zhong, in light of Zi Ling's doubts, you should learn the Guizang Sword." The young man in blue glanced at Kou Zhong.
"How can the way of the sword be so inconvenient? I'm waiting for the day when you can transform the Guizang Sword into the Guizang Knife and show it to me."

"Of course, I, your master, also look forward to the day when you can bring forth new ideas from the Guizang Sword."

"If you want to exchange unique skills in the future, that's fine. I'll treat it as if you want to become apprentices, and then there will be a test."

He said slowly:
"You are a weakling with a fickle mind and a weak heart. You are not even worthy of being my servant, let alone my disciple."

"Disciples don't dare."

Kou and Xu spoke hurriedly.
