A man in the martial world, a reincarnated sword immortal.

Chapter 83 Zhong Yuan masters the Qiankun Great Shift, and Old Zhong cultivates the Northern Darkness True Qi!

In the blink of an eye, seven days have passed.

During these seven days, Zhong Yuan told everyone that Old Zhong was in seclusion in a secret room.

No one seemed to have any doubts.

After all, this wasn't the first time Old Zhong had gone into seclusion.

However, this could not be hidden from Huo Tianjiao. When Huo Tianjiao was in Zhenjie Village, she personally witnessed Zhong Lieyang's efforts to break through the [Great Shift of Heaven and Earth] technique.

On the fourth level, he almost went berserk.

If she hadn't intervened in time, Zhong Lieyang would have already died in Zhenjie Village.

Therefore, she was the one who knew best about Zhong Lieyang's hidden injuries.

These past few days, Zhong Yuan and Mu Wanqing have been very affectionate, with Mu Wanqing calling him "husband" repeatedly.

Everyone in the Pang family already knew about the relationship between the two.

Zhong Yuan is quite open and honest with everyone, but he is afraid to see Huo Tianjiao.

He and Huo Tianjiao had been through a lot together, and they had a tacit understanding with each other from beginning to end.

When they were in Zhenjie Village, the two referred to each other as a young couple.

There was naturally an inexplicable bond between the two.

at the moment.

His relationship with Mu Wanqing progressed rapidly.

He always felt indebted to Huo Tianjiao and was very guilty.

Therefore, I've been trying to avoid Huo Tianjiao these past few days.

Fortunately, he also needs to recover his energy.

Although that innate, formless sword energy that shattered the body was powerful, the energy drain was far greater than any of his previous moves.

Therefore, these past few days, apart from delivering meals to Lao Zhong, he has rarely gone out.

After a few days of recovery, and by constantly reviewing what he had learned from the battle with the Heavenly Child Granny, he felt that he had made great progress.

In particular, they have accumulated a great deal of experience in actual combat.

He was able to contend with the enraged Tianshan Child Granny by relying on the exquisite Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) and the long-range shooting ability of invisible sword energy.

If he lacked either of these two skills, he would definitely die at the hands of the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny that day.

It won't last until he comprehends the [Innate Body-Breaking Formless Sword Qi].

This made him realize even more how important it is to have a superior lightness skill.

He had already made up his mind to pass on the Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps) to the younger generation of the Ming Cult.

He already had a plan: to rebuild the Ming Cult headquarters at Bright Peak.

He wanted to establish a training hall to select the most intelligent and loyal members of the sect to teach them exquisite swordsmanship and lightness skills.

They also need to establish youth training classes to select promising young people from among the ordinary members of the Ming Cult and send them to these classes for training by Ming Cult specialists.

The Ming Cult must break free from its previous loose succession structure and cultivate a group of disciples who are absolutely loyal to the Ming Cult and have distinct Ming Cult characteristics.

To do all of this well requires a lot of time and effort!

In the past few days, he has been recovering his strength while secretly re-practicing the 360 ​​basic sword moves.

The goal is to condense and simplify these 360 ​​techniques into nine as much as possible, to serve as the standard for future Ming Cult disciples.

Time flies.

Zhong Yuan has recovered his strength, and it is time for him to rebuild his internal energy and cultivate the [Northern Darkness Divine Art].

Seven days later, Huo Tianjiao worried that Zhong Lieyang's hidden injuries might have recurred, so she took the initiative to seek out Zhong Yuan.

In the garden of the Pang family's rear residence, there were still some colorful flowers.

Zhong Yuan looked at Huo Tianjiao and was momentarily speechless.

Seeing this, Huo Tianjiao said calmly, "Aren't you usually quite talkative?"

"Why are you suddenly mute?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and grinned at Huo Tianjiao.

"Tianjiao, you seem to have become even more beautiful since I last saw you!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Tianjiao retorted directly, "Stop trying to sweet-talk me."

"Your nonsense is only good for fooling that Mu girl."

"I'm not buying it."

Zhong Yuan knew that Huo Tianjiao was always stubborn, and if she really didn't want to talk to him, she probably wouldn't say a word to him.

He felt relieved and stepped forward, saying, "Tianjiao, I'm so grateful to you these past few days."

"If it weren't for you, my father—"

Huo Tianjiao said matter-of-factly, "The sect leader is my godfather, how can I stand idly by?"

"After you went out and saw the world, your mind became much more open."

"It's perfectly normal for men and women to experience love and pleasure."

"But I still want to give you a piece of advice: you are the future of the Ming Cult."

"If one lingers in the arms of a woman, when will one ever achieve great things?"

Zhong Yuan felt somewhat ashamed upon hearing this.

"I see."

A complex emotion flashed in Huo Tianjiao's eyes, but she said with feigned nonchalance, "There's really nothing between us."

"You don't need to hide from me."

"Right now, the most important thing is to eliminate the hidden injuries within the cult leader."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yuan felt a sense of relief mixed with a touch of disappointment.

Whether it's Huo Tianjiao or Mu Wanqing, they each have their own merits.

but.

Right now, it's definitely not the time to spend a lot of time on romance.

As long as Huo Tianjiao is still by his side, she will be his sooner or later.

He composed himself and said to Huo Tianjiao, "Tianjiao, you don't need to worry."

"I have a way to treat my father's hidden injury."

Huo Tianjiao knew that Zhong Yuan wouldn't lie to her about this, so she immediately nodded and said, "Okay."

"Then I'll wait for your news."

Huo Tianjiao turned to leave, but Zhong Yuan grabbed her and asked, "Tianjiao, is everything alright at home?"

"Thirteen, how skilled are Baihua and the others?"

Huo Tianjiao didn't break free from Zhong Yuan's hand, and turned around to say something indifferently.

"They are all well."

"Everyone is waiting for you to come back."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yuan said in a low voice, "Thanks to you."

"You've worked hard."

Huo Tianjiao remained silent, did not respond, broke free from Zhong Yuan's hand, and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Zhong Yuan couldn't help but shake his head inwardly, realizing that they could only take it slowly.

He composed himself and returned to the secret room.

today.

Old Zhong is about to begin cultivating the [Northern Darkness Divine Art], and Zhong Yuan must protect him.

Inside the sealed room.

Zhong Lieyang has recovered his energy after seven days of rest.

These past few days.

Without his internal energy, he was no different from an ordinary old man, but his mindset became even more peaceful.

In the past, I've come to terms with many things that I couldn't understand before.

The change in his mindset made Zhong Lieyang much calmer when he looked at the [Northern Darkness Divine Art] on the silk scroll.

Zhong Yuan, who was standing to the side, said, "Father."

"We can begin."

Zhong Lieyang nodded slightly and looked at the portrait of the nude woman.

A thin green line runs across the portrait, starting from the left shoulder, down to the neck, and diagonally to the right breast.

He saw the nude woman's breasts bulging in the painting, but he felt no emotion whatsoever.

The green line extends to the armpit, down the right arm, through the wrist, and ends at the right thumb.

The more he looked, the more at ease he felt. Another green line extended down from his neck, down his abdomen, and stopped a few inches away from his navel.

Zhong Lieyang had been practicing martial arts for forty years. After dispersing his skills, many of his obsessions dissipated.

With a clear mind, he didn't have the same obsession with the [Northern Darkness Divine Art] as ordinary people.

This peaceful state of mind prevented him from resisting, allowing him to read through the entire operational route of the [Northern Darkness Divine Art] in one go.

If it were an ordinary person, simply seeing those nude pictures would make their mind unsettled, and they might very well go astray.

After all, the nude painting was so lifelike that it was difficult for most people to concentrate and remain unaffected.

Zhong Yuan was unaffected at the time entirely because he had cultivated the [Heart King Scripture], and his mindset had already undergone a transformation.

Zhong Lieyang focused his mind and looked at the green line on his arm. He saw that the line was marked with the characters [Yunmen] and [Zhongfu] in fine print.

【Tianfu】, 【Xiabai】, 【Chize】, 【Kongzui】, 【Lieque】, 【Jingqu】, 【Dayuan】, 【Yuji】

The text continues until it reaches the "Shaoshang" mark on the thumb.

He felt that there was something truly mysterious about it.

Let's continue looking ahead.

After a long while.

He read through all the patterns, acupoints, and texts contained in the [Northern Darkness Divine Art] and memorized them.

I couldn't help but sigh.

"That's truly a brilliant idea."

"Most people practice martial arts starting from Yunmen and progressing to Shaoshang, but the Xiaoyao Sect goes against the grain, starting from Shaoshang and then moving on to Yunmen!"

"When the thumb touches another person, their internal energy enters the body and is stored in acupoints such as Yunmen."

Immediately.

He immediately began cultivating. Having a foundation in cultivation, Zhong Lieyang did not encounter any difficulties in re-cultivating the [Northern Darkness Divine Art].

Half a day later.

Zhong Lieyang then reassembled his true energy, but this true energy was completely different from before; it was the Northern Darkness True Energy!

Although the Northern Darkness True Qi in his dantian was only a small amount, it was far less than before he dissipated his power.

But as long as you have this bit of Northern Darkness True Qi, you will have the ability to convert other people's internal energy into your own.

This change caused a new vitality to emanate from Zhong Lieyang's body.

After Zhong Lieyang mastered the Northern Darkness True Qi, Zhong Yuan then had him practice the Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps).

after all.

The Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps) is graceful and swift, and is an extremely sophisticated light-body technique.

Zhong Lieyang didn't pretend and started cultivating immediately.

For Zhong Lieyang, this kind of lightness skill was much easier to master than the [Great Shift of Heaven and Earth].

By the middle of the night, he had already mastered the [Lingbo Weibu] technique.

Seeing this, Zhong Yuan felt much more at ease.

Zhong Lieyang rolled up the silk scrolls containing the [Northern Darkness Divine Skill] and [Lingbo Steps] and handed them to Zhong Yuan, giving him instructions.

"Yuan'er".

"These two martial arts techniques are extraordinary; from now on, they can only be passed down to the leader of our Ming Cult."

"Keep this safe for now, and we will find a place to put it after the Ming Cult headquarters is rebuilt."

Zhong Yuan nodded slightly; he had the same idea.

However, he felt that apart from the [Northern Darkness Divine Skill] which should be stored away, the [Lingbo Steps] could be passed on to disciples in the Ming Cult who had better talent and were loyal to the Ming Cult.

For example, Fang Liu, Fang Shisan, Fang Baihua, and others. After all, this skill is not only a lightness skill, but also a way to cultivate internal strength. Passing it on to younger disciples in the Ming Cult is also a way to cultivate talent for the Ming Cult.

The Ming Cult differed from typical martial arts sects, which led to problems in talent development.

Therefore, the Ming Cult must make changes.

He shared this idea with Lao Zhong.

Zhong Lieyang pondered for a moment before saying, "You are now the Left Envoy of the sect."

"You're in charge of these things."

"I will not interfere."

Zhong Yuan felt much more at ease.

"Father, I have recovered my strength and have benefited greatly in these past few days."

"It's time to head north to Tokyo, to the Da Xiangguo Temple, and rescue the Black-Robed Dharma King."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Lieyang said, "With your current skill level, cultivating the [Great Shift of Heaven and Earth] to the fourth level shouldn't be a problem."

"I think you should cultivate the [Great Shift of Heaven and Earth] to the fourth level before making a decision."

Zhong Yuan thought about it and realized that there was really no need to wait for the Great Perfection of the Heart King Sutra.

After the battle with Tianshan Tonglao at Lingjiu Mountain, his internal strength increased significantly, which would take no more than three months.

The Heart King Sutra will surely be mastered.

Tokyo, the capital of the Song Dynasty, was, after all, a place of great danger and danger.

Having the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth" skill by your side provides an extra means of survival.

Thinking of this, he nodded directly and said, "Okay, I'll practice."

When Zhong Lieyang left Zhenjie Village, he had already taken the [Great Shift of Heaven and Earth] with him.

He immediately took it out and handed it to Zhong Yuan.

Zhong Yuan had read "The Great Shift of the Universe" long ago, and now, as he opened the parchment again, he was filled with many emotions.

But he wasn't one to dwell on things. He immediately cleared his mind of all distractions and began cultivating the first level of the [Great Shift of Heaven and Earth].

As expected, he easily mastered the first level without any obstacles.

Seeing this, Zhong Lieyang, who was standing to the side, was also secretly alarmed.

Back then, it took him a full three years to cultivate the first level of the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth".

However, Yuan'er, who has cultivated the Heart King Scripture, has mastered the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth in the blink of an eye.

Truly, the student has surpassed the teacher!

Zhong Yuan was not surprised by the speed at which he had mastered the first level of the Nine Yang Divine Skill. After all, Zhang Wuji mastered the first level of the Nine Yang Divine Skill with just one attempt.

He cultivates the Heart King Sutra, which is compatible with the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth, so there's no reason for him to be slower than Zhang Wuji.

He calmed his mind and followed the second level of the mental technique, and in a short while, his true energy flowed through him. He felt as if wisps of cold air were shooting out from between his ten fingers.

The third and fourth floors were also completely unobstructed!

Zhong Lieyang, who was standing to the side, saw that one half of Zhong Yuan's face was swollen and blood red, while the other half was ashen.

He was greatly surprised.

Having cultivated the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth for decades, he naturally knew that this was a situation that would only occur when one had cultivated the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth to the fourth level.

He thought that Yuan'er might achieve twice the result with half the effort when cultivating the [Great Shift of Heaven and Earth].

But I never expected it to happen so quickly!

It's gotten to a point he can hardly imagine!

He was incredibly excited!

This was far more exciting than him practicing the [Northern Darkness Divine Art] himself.

The Great Shift of Heaven and Earth is the Ming Cult's most powerful martial art!

Strictly speaking, only the leaders of each generation can cultivate this technique!

Yuan'er practiced all the way to the fourth level in one go, and showed no sign of stopping.

Moreover, he was full of energy and showed no signs of going astray.

Clearly, the fourth floor is definitely not his highest point.

Zhong Lieyang looked at Zhong Yuan with anticipation.

at this time.

Zhong Yuan had already reached the fifth level. His face was turning pale and red, and his body was sometimes hot and sometimes cold.

It was as if the power of water and fire, the yin and yang energies, were constantly alternating within the body.

Soon, this feeling disappeared.

Zhong Yuan felt that his energy and strength were completely at his command, and he could release and withdraw them at will!

Everything was done according to his will, and he felt an indescribable comfort throughout his body.

He felt that this was not his limit.

He immediately pressed on to the sixth level, only to find that it was as easy as drinking water, and he mastered it in just half an incense stick's time.

Zhong Yuan was overjoyed, realizing that he had truly underestimated the wonders of the Heart King Sutra.

He was able to comprehend the [Innate Body-Breaking Formless Sword Qi], which represented a qualitative change beyond the profound mysteries of divine power.

Therefore, repairing this "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth" is completely effortless.

He immediately built a seventh floor.

Although the seventh level is several times more profound than the sixth level, it still poses no challenge to Zhong Yuan.

After a short while, Zhong Yuan had already mastered more than half of the seventh level of the mental cultivation technique.

Just then, a sound seemed to suddenly ring in his ears. It wasn't Lao Zhong's voice, but rather Huo Tianjiao's.

No, it's Mu Wanqing's!

No, it sounds like Pang Qiuxia's again!

The voice kept changing, as if three women were constantly appearing behind him, lingering in his ears, and breathing softly.

Zhong Yuan immediately focused his mind, and the opening lines of the Heart King Sutra appeared in his mind.

In an instant.

The three voices disappeared, and Zhong Yuan slowly opened his eyes, looking at the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth" scroll on the parchment.

Zhong Lieyang, standing to the side, asked with slight anxiety, "Yuan'er, how is it?"

"What level have you reached?"

Zhong Yuan paused for a moment, then slowly said, "Father, I've reached the seventh level!"

"However—my Heart King Sutra is not yet complete, and my mind is not strong enough, so I cannot fully master this seventh level."

"There are still seventeen lines that I haven't been able to practice completely."

Wow!

These words were spoken.

This left Zhong Lieyang frozen in place, as if struck by lightning.

The seventh floor?

It's the seventh floor!
