Devour: Can you also draw entries from clone projection worlds?

Wei Wen slowly walked back to the inn along the bluestone path, his mind still on the matter of the "domain".

The golden phrase "Martial Arts Return to Origin" that he brought from the main world of Swallowed Star allowed him to master a domain at the planetary level.

This is something that most planetary-level martial artists in the original work never even get a glimpse of in their entire lives, and even many eternal-level powerhouses may not possess it.

But that field was "brought over," not something he "realized" in this world.

In the world of martial arts like The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, there is also a concept of a similar domain.

The reason why the three grandmasters became the three grandmasters is not only because of their profound internal strength and exquisite moves, but also because of their "momentum".

Ning Daoqi's "Eight Strikes of the Scattered Hands", Bi Xuan's "Blazing Sun Skill", Fu Cailin's "Yi Sword Technique"... it seems that every unique skill has its own "momentum".

When a martial artist cultivates to a certain level, their every move naturally carries an aura that can suppress the opponent's mind and influence their judgment.

This... is the prototype of the domain.

Such a thing doesn't exist in the low-level martial arts world; if your internal energy is strong enough and your moves are fast enough, you can win.

But the world of martial arts is different. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is richer here, the martial arts system is more complete, and the pursuit of "intention" and "momentum" far exceeds the pursuit of "strength".

What Wei Wen needs to do now is to transform what he brought from the low-level martial arts world into the "momentum" of this world.

The fifth spring has passed just like that.

Wei Wen still lived in the small inn in Yangzhou. Every morning he would meditate in the courtyard, go out for a stroll in the morning, study medical books in his room in the afternoon, and meditate and cultivate in the evening.

Life went on uneventfully, but his heart was not at peace. He could feel himself slowly "settling down".

The martial arts skills he learned, the experience he accumulated, and the habits he developed in the low-level martial arts world are gradually becoming part of his instincts.

He no longer needed to consciously think about them, no longer needed to consciously use them; they had become a part of his body.

In the autumn of the sixth year, Wei Wen went to Luoyang again to continue working as a traveling physician.

One night, he sensed an exceptionally powerful aura.

The aura emanating from the north of the city was neither internal force nor true energy, but something indescribable, like a burning fire or a bottomless sea.

Wei Wen focused his domain and probed in that direction. The owner of that aura seemed to sense something, paused slightly, and then left his perception range at a leisurely pace.

"Could it be a Grandmaster?" Wei Wen withdrew his domain, his heart pounding faster. Luoyang City was indeed full of hidden talents.

In the winter of the seventh year, Wei Wen finally "accidentally" met Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

It wasn't him who went to find them; they were being chased outside Luoyang and, in their panic, stumbled into his pharmacy.

That evening, as it was getting dark, Wei Wen was about to close the door when two figures stumbled in from outside and fell to the ground.

He looked down and saw Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, covered in blood, dressed in rags, and pale as paper.

Kou Zhong had an arrow stuck in his shoulder, and Xu Ziling had a long knife wound on his back.

"Brother Wei... Brother Wei?" Kou Zhong looked up and saw Wei Wen's face, then paused, "What are you doing in Luoyang?"

"Don't speak yet." Wei Wen squatted down, pulled the arrow out of Kou Zhong's shoulder, used wound medicine to stop the bleeding, and then bandaged it with a white cloth.

Then he had Xu Ziling lie on the bed to treat the knife wound on his back.

The knife wound was very deep; it almost reached the bone.

Xu Ziling was sweating profusely from the pain, but he gritted his teeth and didn't utter a sound.

After treating the injuries, Wei Wen closed the door to the shop, lit the oil lamp, and sat down beside the two men.

Kou Zhong leaned against the wall, panting, looking at Wei Wen with a gleam in his eyes, "Brother Wei, you are truly our lucky star."

Wei Wen asked who was chasing them, and Kou Zhong said he didn't know, only that they were officials, wearing uniform armor, riding tall horses, and carrying standard weapons.

"It seems to be Yuwen Huaji's people..." Wei Wen thought to himself, "They really have a strong sense of destiny; they still managed to cause trouble for the Longevity Technique."

The two boys stayed at Wei Wen's pharmacy for three days to recover from their injuries.

Over the course of three days, Wei Wen asked them about their experiences over the years, and Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling recounted their stories one after the other.

After leaving Yangzhou, they traveled south and met a woman named Fu Junzhuo in Jiangdu.

The woman was from Goguryeo and possessed extremely high martial arts skills. She treated them very well and taught them some basic breathing techniques.

Later, Fu Junzhuo was killed by Yuwen Huaji. They escaped and found the Longevity Manual in a mountain cave. They studied it day and night and finally mastered it.

Xu Ziling said that he was weak and sickly since childhood, but his health improved a lot after practicing the Longevity Technique.

Kou Zhong said that he used to be unable to beat people stronger than him, but now he can kill a bull with one punch.

Wei Wen listened and nodded repeatedly. These two lads had indeed followed the original path. Fu Junzhuo taught them the basic skills of the Nine Profound Techniques, and they had also laid a solid foundation for the internal energy cultivation method of the Longevity Manual.

Their current strength should be close to that of a first-class master, but they are still far from being a true top master.

Kou Zhong asked him how he had been doing all these years, and Wei Wen replied that it had been just so-so, seeing doctors and earning a little money.

Kou Zhong said, "Why are you, a doctor, not staying in Yangzhou? What are you doing in Luoyang?"

Wei Wen smiled and said that he came to Luoyang to try his luck, and maybe he could meet a benefactor.

Kou Zhong asked if he had encountered it, and Wei Wen said he had.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling exchanged a glance and smiled. They didn't know who Wei Wen was referring to as the "benefactor."

Three days later, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling had almost recovered from their injuries. The two bid farewell to Wei Wen and said they were going to join Li Mi.

Wei Wen did not try to stop him. He took out two bottles of wound medicine from the cabinet and handed them to Kou Zhong, and then took out a book and handed it to Xu Ziling.

Xu Ziling looked down and saw a handwritten medical book: "Doctor Wei, this is..."

"You can use some basic medical principles and prescriptions on the road," Wei Wen said. "The world is a dangerous place, so you need to learn to take care of yourselves."

Xu Ziling carefully put the book away and bowed deeply. Kou Zhong tucked the wound medicine into his pocket, patted his chest, and said, "Brother Wei, when I, Kou Zhong, make something of myself, I will definitely come back to repay you!"

Wei Wen smiled but didn't say anything.

Watching the two boys' figures disappear into the night, he turned around and closed the shop door. The flame of the oil lamp flickered in the wind, then steadied itself.

In the spring of the eighth year, Wei Wen finally got what he wanted: the He Shi Bi jade.

The He Shi Bi jade is a priceless treasure, said to contain mysterious power.

In the original story, the He Shi Bi jade was hidden in the Jingnian Temple outside Luoyang City. The monks in the temple were highly skilled in martial arts, and the He Shi Bi jade was hidden in a secret room in the temple.

Wei Wen did not enter through the main gate, but climbed over the wall into the backyard and released his domain, quickly finding the location of the secret room.

The stone door to the secret chamber was tightly closed, and it was covered with dense Sanskrit inscriptions.

He placed his hand on the stone door, and the Northern Darkness True Qi circulated silently, causing the stone door to slowly open.
