From martial arts sects to immortality sects

Chapter 30 No. in the world
Create your own spells?

Who is so amazing?
Li Qingqiu was surprised. Currently, the only people who could truly be considered cultivators, besides himself, his junior brother and sister, were Yang Jueding and Xu Ning.

Today, Jiang Zhaoxia and Li Sijin went to the underground spirit lake. Could it be Jiang Zhaoxia?
Filled with curiosity, he leaped and flew over the trees like a startled swan. The trees were covered with snow, and he seemed to be walking on snow without leaving a trace.

Returning to the mountain gate from the mountainside, one could see disciples from time to time along the way. Some were practicing martial arts, some were working, and some were sparring. It finally felt like a martial arts sect.

Upon arriving at the new courtyard below the mountain gate, Li Qingqiu was stopped by Yang Jueding as soon as she entered.

"Sect Leader, I have something to tell you!" Yang Jueding said excitedly, his hand gripping Li Qingqiu's wrist, unconsciously tightening his grip.

Li Qingqiu was stunned. Could it be that Yang Jueding was the one who created the magic?
This was beyond his expectations, because among them, Yang Jueding was the last to begin cultivating immortality.

He immediately followed Yang Jueding away. The two arrived at the woods next to the new courtyard. Yang Jueding looked around to make sure no one was there. He put his hands on his hips and said with a smug smile, "Sect Master, I have fused the Hunyuan Scripture with my Nine Heavens Divine Palm, and its power has increased many times over."

The Nine Heavens Divine Palm is Yang Jueding's most famous martial arts technique. It is powerful and can be controlled at will. If you are hit by this palm technique, your dantian will be shattered and your bones will be broken.

Yang Jueding was proficient in many martial arts, but he only passed on the Nine Heavens Divine Palm to Wu Man'er.

Li Qingqiu's eyes lit up when he heard Yang Jueding's words. He had previously thought about using Yuan Qi to perform martial arts, but unfortunately, he had not succeeded.

Unexpectedly, Yang Jueding succeeded.

"Let me see," Li Qingqiu urged.

Yang Jueding turned around, assumed a horse stance, clenched his fists and tucked them into his waist and abdomen. As he began to circulate his internal energy, the snow beneath his feet began to melt, turning into wisps of rising heat.

Li Qingqiu raised an eyebrow, surprised by Yang Jueding's imposing manner.

How long has Yang Jueding been cultivating immortality? He's already this strong.

Most importantly, Yang Jueding was still only at the first level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm, not even reaching the second level, but in terms of aura, Li Qingqiu felt that he was no less than Lü Taidou.

Strange, his comprehension isn't strong either, according to the Daoist panel!
Li Qingqiu was puzzled. He stared intently at Yang Jueding, waiting for him to strike.

Yang Jueding didn't keep him waiting long. When his momentum reached a certain height, he suddenly swung out his right palm, leaned his entire upper body forward, and struck out with a palm like a dragon emerging from the abyss. The terrifying palm force formed a visible wave of air that swept forward, stirring up the snow as if a river had been cut off.

boom--

The palm energy was like a dragon, rampaging and domineering. It knocked down an old tree. Just as the palm energy continued to rush forward, Yang Jueding suddenly withdrew his palm. The palm force was actually retracted, pulling the palm energy back. The flying snow along the way rushed towards the two of them, and even the fallen leaves and pebbles were mixed in.

Li Qingqiu's robes billowed violently in the wind. He squinted and actually thought the Nine Heavens Divine Palm was somewhat cool.

That pull was so powerful that it prevented a heavily wounded enemy from escaping; it was quite something.

Yang Jueding swung his right arm, dispelling the palm force. The energy spread throughout his body, tearing out several long, narrow grooves in the snow.

He turned to look at Li Qingqiu, raised his chin, and gestured for Li Qingqiu to give his evaluation.

Li Qingqiu exclaimed, "Indeed, it is truly remarkable. You should write down this unique skill and add it to the Scripture Pavilion. This will be the exclusive skill of the Qingxiao Sect. I will not forget this contribution."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jueding instinctively wanted to retort, but he held back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Without the Hunyuan Sutra, his Nine Heavens Divine Palm would not have such power.

"It's just a pity that with my current skill level, I can only unleash one palm strike; it's too taxing," Yang Jueding said with a wry smile.

It's really strange. His special internal energy is now much greater and stronger than before, but it always seems to be completely depleted when he tries to unleash it.

This made him realize the upper limit of the Hunyuan Scripture, which was far beyond the reach of ordinary martial arts. Calling it a peerless divine skill would not be an exaggeration. If such a unique skill were to spread to the martial arts world, it would surely cause a bloodbath.

Thinking of this, the way he looked at Li Qingqiu changed.

The sect leader was truly sincere towards him; otherwise, he wouldn't have taught him this divine skill.

"You've only been cultivating the Hunyuan Scripture for a short time, take it slow. In ten years, you too can become a top master in the martial arts world," Li Qingqiu encouraged.

"Ten years? Are you underestimating the Hunyuan Scripture, or underestimating me? Ten years from now, I will be the number one in the world!"

Yang Jueding said with great pride, then, as if remembering something, he added, "Except for our own people."

Jiang Zhaoxia and Xu Ning's talents terrified him, as did Wu Man'er and Li Sifeng, who also possessed immense potential.

Li Qingqiu did not continue the topic, but instead asked him how to combine the Hunyuan Scripture with the Nine Heavens Divine Palm. He did not hide anything and explained in detail.

After listening for a long time, Li Qingqiu still couldn't understand how Yang Jueding came up with such a wonderful idea. He could only attribute it to Yang Jueding's martial arts experience.

Yang Jueding's advantage lies in his martial arts experience, an advantage that cannot be surpassed by them in a short period of time.

Regardless, Yang Jueding's ability to create magic for the Qingxiao Sect is a great achievement.

So, before dinner, Li Qingqiu asked Zhang Yuchun to kill a chicken to celebrate, and announced this to his disciples in order to encourage them to create.

As for what unique skill Yang Jueding created, Li Qingqiu did not explain.

After dinner, Jiang Zhaoxia came to Li Qingqiu's room to inquire about the matter. Li Qingqiu did not hide anything from Jiang Zhaoxia.

Upon learning that Yang Jueding had borrowed from the Hunyuan Scripture to modify his own unique skills and create even stronger martial arts, Jiang Zhaoxia fell into a brief silence. In the end, she didn't say much and simply bid farewell to Li Qingqiu.

If it can stimulate Jiang Zhaoxia, that would be a good thing. Li Qingqiu is looking forward to Jiang Zhaoxia creating magic.

Let alone traditional sects, even martial arts factions wouldn't object to an increase in the number of martial arts techniques. On a grander scale, this is what constitutes a sect's foundation. ...

Late at night, near midnight, Li Qingqiu arrived at the woods where Qin Ye and Wu Baoyu had agreed to meet. He waited for a while, and then Qin Ye arrived.

Qin Ye stood in the woods, feeling uneasy and somewhat regretful, but he desperately wanted to become stronger.

He knew very well that by learning martial arts from Yang Jueding, he could at most maintain the same level of strength as the other disciples, and it would be difficult for him to stand out in the Qingxiao Sect. He was taking a chance.

The sound of a branch breaking underfoot interrupted Qin Ye's thoughts. He turned his head and saw Wu Baoyu walking out of the darkness carrying an oil lamp.

Neither of them noticed that Li Qingqiu was hiding in the tree.

"Although you were very scared, you still came, which proves that you have ambition in your bones."

Wu Baoyu's voice came through, but Qin Ye couldn't see his expression, making him even more uneasy.

Soon, Wu Baoyu emerged from the darkness. He hung the oil lamp in his hand on the treetop next to him, then pulled out two wooden sticks from his back and tossed one of them to Qin Ye.

Qin Ye almost missed it, but fortunately, it was dark and Wu Baoyu didn't notice his flushed face.

"Do you know why I chose you?" Wu Baoyu stared at Qin Ye and asked.

"Because I'm hardworking?"

"No, it's because you're not talented and your master doesn't value you."

Wu Baoyu's words were like a knife piercing Qin Ye's heart.

Qin Ye had long realized that his master did not have high hopes for him, but Xu Ning's talent was obvious to everyone, and he was suppressed and had no temper.

Li Qingqiu cursed inwardly from behind the tree, thinking that Wu Baoyu was actually sowing discord.

However, he couldn't help but think that he had indeed neglected Qin Ye. Although Qin Ye had obtained the opportunity to become his disciple through an exchange of benefits, he was still his apprentice.

Li Qingqiu decided to take better care of Qin Ye in the future, since the boy was usually very proactive and did not have the spoiled and arrogant demeanor typical of wealthy young men.

"I can't reach Xu Ning, so I can only turn to you. I need you to pass on this staff technique. If it's passed on to other disciples, it will be difficult for this staff technique to be preserved as a legacy of the Qingxiao Sect. In addition, your Qin family has ambitions for officialdom. In the future, you can also rely on this staff technique to dominate the battlefield. Once you master this staff technique, you will be a match for ten thousand men." Wu Baoyu's tone was indifferent, without any emotional fluctuation.

Qin Ye was puzzled and asked cautiously, "Senior, after what you went through, you still allow me to use your staff techniques to join the army?"

Wu Baoyu replied expressionlessly, "The emperor is incompetent and treacherous officials are in power, but this is only temporary. We were born on this land, and it is our duty as martial artists to protect it."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ye felt his blood surge with excitement, and at the same time, he developed a deep respect for Wu Baoyu.

"Let's begin. This staff technique is called the Ten Thousand Armies Subduing Demon Staff. The master who taught me this staff technique is very mysterious. I do not know his real name. If you meet him in the future, please thank him for me. This is definitely the number one staff technique in the world."

After saying this, Wu Baoyu held the long staff horizontally in front of him.

Hearing this, Li Qingqiu was completely relieved. He wasn't interested in the Ten Thousand Army Demon-Subduing Staff, and besides, this was Qin Ye's personal opportunity, which he didn't want to interfere with.

In the following days, Wu Baoyu taught Qin Ye the staff technique whenever he had free time.

Seven days later.

Zhang Yuchun found Li Qingqiu and told him that Wu Baoyu had gone down the mountain, and he was afraid of causing trouble for the Qingxiao Sect, so he chose to leave.

Li Qingqiu did not send anyone to pursue them, after all, Wu Baoyu had left behind his unique skills.

"Senior brother, it seems difficult to reach the goal of having fifty disciples by the end of the year," Zhang Yuchun sighed.

Without a reputation, it's too difficult to recruit disciples.

Unless he recruits refugees, but the refugees are either orphans or the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, what Qingxiao Sect needs now is young and strong men.

Li Qingqiu laughed and said, "I was just saying. Rather than blindly expanding the number of people, laying a solid foundation is the key."

Zhang Yuchun was still somewhat depressed. After chatting for a while, Zhang Yuchun got up and left, while Li Qingqiu continued to cultivate her inner energy inside the room.

Nothing special happened that winter. After Feng Dai and the others left, they never came back, and no one even came up the mountain to ask for lodging.

In the blink of an eye, two months had passed. Xu Ning had successfully reached the third level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm. Apart from her, no one else in the Qingxiao Sect had reached the second level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm, which was enough to show how difficult it was to cultivate immortality.

As the Spring Festival approached, someone finally came to visit. It was Qin Ye's father, Qin Jue, who brought more than a dozen servants with him. These servants carried large boxes containing grain, fine wine, and bedding, showing great sincerity.

Li Qingqiu, Zhang Yuchun, and Yang Jueding kept Qin Jue company while he drank tea and chatted, while Qin Ye swept the courtyard and listened to their conversation.

After chatting for a while, Qin Jue suddenly said, "By the way, a major event happened last month. A master of the Demonic Sect who had been in seclusion for more than ten years reappeared in the world. That person carried an iron rod, broke into the palace, killed hundreds of imperial guards, and almost captured the emperor. In the end, he was killed by the combined forces of the Heavenly Guards. His head was hung on the city wall as a warning to the world."

"This master of the Demonic Sect is no ordinary person. He is the Northern Protector of the Demonic Sect, named Wu Baoyu. He is ruthless and murderous. He died a very tragic death. His eyes were gouged out. I heard that the emperor disliked his eyes very much."

Bang!

The broom in Qin Ye's hand fell to the ground. He stared blankly at his father.
