The Condor Heroes: The Quanzhen Sect has produced a vengeful master!

Wang Chongyang instructed Zhou Botong to destroy the Nine Yin Manual, and stipulated beforehand that no one from the Quanzhen School was allowed to practice it.

Guo Jing was not a complete disciple of Quanzhen Sect, and he did not switch sects.

Therefore, Zhou Botong taught Guo Jing for this reason, and instructed Guo Jing not to pass it on to outsiders, especially emphasizing that it should not be passed on to the Quanzhen School.

But Wang Jiuling was a true third-generation member of the Quanzhen Sect, which put Guo Jing in a difficult position.

At this moment, Huang Rong also sighed inwardly.

Guo Jing was right about one thing: Wang Jiuling really did save Guo Fu.

It wasn't his fault that he went astray.

Moreover, Wang Jiuling was upright and honest, and was not the kind of treacherous and vicious person he was.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought Lu Qingdu here today to confess.

Huang Rong glanced at the conflicted Guo Jing and realized that if this matter wasn't resolved, things would likely not go well.

Given Guo Jing's personality, he would definitely keep Wang Jiuling around, which would cause trouble for both sides.

"Brother Jing! The reason Brother Zhou entrusted you with this task was not really to keep it secret, but to prevent the Nine Yin Manual from falling into the hands of evil people."

"Otherwise, why would he have passed it on to you?"

"But Master Wang is not a person with evil intentions; he just had a mishap while practicing his skills."

"Using the Nine Yin Manual to save him is also preventing him from embarking on the demonic path, which is exactly the same as Master Chongyang's original intention!"

Upon hearing Huang Rong's words, Guo Jing felt a slight easing of the knot in his heart.

"Rong'er... thank you for clearing up my doubts."

"I see!"

In the evening, after dinner, Guo Jing took Wang Jiuling directly back to his room.

"Senior brother, I'm not sleepy right now. I plan to meditate and cultivate first. You don't need to rush me."

Wang Jiuling thought that Guo Jing was afraid that he would go into a state of demonic possession if he fell asleep.

Unexpectedly, after Guo Jing entered the room, he didn't say a word, but simply closed all the doors and windows on his own.

"Senior brother! What's wrong with you...?"

What Guo Jing said next surprised Wang Jiuling even more.

"Junior brother, today your senior brother will impart the Nine Yin Manual to you, to help you cultivate your mind and nourish your spirit!"

Guo Jing's expression was more serious than ever before. He explained to him how he learned the Nine Yin Manual and how it helped him cultivate his spirit.

"Junior brother! You must promise your senior brother that after learning the Nine Yin Manual, you must not easily pass it on to others, lest it fall into the hands of thieves! Nor should you use it for evil!"

At this moment, Guo Jing's eyes were firm, filled with trust in Wang Jiuling.

Wang Jiuling nodded deeply.

He didn't offer any grand words of thanks; Guo Jing didn't need such useless formalities.

"Senior brother! You have taught me martial arts; I will certainly not let you down in the future!"

Wang Jiuling merely made a promise.

Guo Jing said no more and began to recite the general outline of the Nine Yin Manual to Wang Jiuling, word by word, and explained it to him.

"The Nine Yin Manual's general principles are not simply a method for cultivating internal energy. It includes the principles of internal energy cultivation, methods to improve the efficiency of internal energy utilization, healing methods, and the principles of all martial arts techniques."

"And all of this has one prerequisite: to calm the mind and focus the attention on the dantian."

"If you learn the Nine Yin Manual, you can constantly nourish your spirit, eliminate distracting thoughts, and achieve unity of mind and body."

Wang Jiuling had originally planned to leave the next day, but now he was temporarily unable to leave the Guo residence.

On the first day, Wang Jiuling first memorized the general outline of the Nine Yin Manual.

This made Guo Jing marvel at Wang Jiuling's talent.

Guo Jing himself spent two or three months memorizing it.

But simply memorizing it won't do any good. The general outline of the Nine Yin Manual is obscure and difficult to understand, and requires slow and careful study.

Fortunately, Wang Jiuling had Guo Jing's dedicated guidance, who explained the principles to him every day.

The Nine Yin Manual is truly profound. Its method of calming the mind is not as simple as Wang Jiuling thought, but includes many methods: unique techniques are available when practicing internal energy cultivation, practicing external skills, meditating daily, and even sleeping.

It's more like a comprehensive "remodeling" of Wang Jiuling's martial arts and knowledge, allowing people to use the Nine Yin Manual at any time, making it incredibly practical.

This training lasted for a month.

On this day, Wang Jiuling sat cross-legged on his bed, with several books on internal alchemy placed in front of him, his true energy condensed and not dissipated.

His true energy was still the innate Nine Yang True Energy, unlike Guo Jing's Yin and Yang combination.

However, this extremely yang and powerful true energy also possessed a certain "weightiness".

In the past, his true energy was too domineering, and because of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, although the total amount was large, the amount of energy was also greatly depleted.

Although his true energy is still domineering, he can now control it more freely, as if it were his own arm.

The most obvious benefit was its help in his cultivation of the Innate Skill.

In the past, when Wang Jiuling was practicing the Refining Spirit to Return to Emptiness, he had to focus his mind on the upper dantian. His spirit and soul were like a dream, a bubble, and a hazy illusion, and he did not know where he was.

Now, he is free from worldly troubles, no longer bothered by the pain in his upper dantian, and his mind is perfectly clear.

Actually, this method of using the upper dantian is related to the Soul Transfer Technique. However, Wang Jiuling only learned the Soul Transfer Technique and not the general principles, so he couldn't use its subtleties at all.

"call--!"

Wang Jiuling opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

Last night, using his knowledge of the Nine Yin Manual's general principles, he gleaned new insights from the chapter on acupoint release and successfully broke through several major acupoints on his body.

Although we are still far from achieving the ultimate mastery of the Nine Yangs technique, we have at least taken a step forward.

Wang Jiuling couldn't help but laugh.

Now his Innate Skill has reached the level of Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness, and it is further enhanced by the Nine Yang Divine Skill, as well as by the Nine Yin Manual's enhancement of both Innate Skill and Nine Yang Divine Skill. It's as if he's stepping on his own feet.

I pushed open the door; it was just beginning to get light.

Guo Jing was standing outside the door. When he turned around, he was also taken aback when he saw Wang Jiuling's appearance.

Wang Jiuling exuded a restrained aura, his eyes gleamed with a precious light, and his skin was fair with a healthy glow. He looked like a pure and flawless white jade sculpture.

"Junior brother, your martial arts have improved again!"

Guo Jing couldn't hide his joy, and Wang Jiuling smiled, nodded, and cupped his hands in greeting.

"I will never forget my senior brother's great kindness!"

Now that the aftereffects of the Innate Skill's refinement of spirit and return to emptiness have been suppressed, and the Innate Skill has advanced further, Wang Jiuling has already begun to have the feeling of "returning to the innate state".

From now on, all you need to do is combine it with internal alchemy techniques to gradually stabilize your mental state.

Moreover, just a few days ago, a hunter entrusted by Guo Jing had already obtained a clue about that mysterious valley.

Wang Jiuling also planned to leave the Guo residence.

Guo Jing didn't take it to heart; he helped Wang Jiuling and never considered asking him to repay it.

But Wang Jiuling remembered this kindness.

For the first time, he truly felt Guo Jing's personal charm. Compared to Guo Jing, Wang Jiuling even felt that he was not a good person at all.

Thinking back to the fall of Xiangyang and Guo Jing's death in battle, Wang Jiuling felt it was truly a tragedy.

This time, Wang Jiuling was determined to try and see if he could change Guo Jing's fate.

The next day, Wang Jiuling left the Guo residence with Lu Qingdu and the others.

He was going to find that valley.

If he wants to change the future, martial arts are his greatest asset.
