Martial Arts: My Talent Has No Limits

Chapter 49 Fire Scale Pearl

"Oh?"

Qin Jiu heard this.

He didn't show any particular expression.

He didn't know whether the other party was speaking intentionally or unintentionally. If it was the former, then what would be the attitude of Xuanxiao Sect, no, Zheng Dahai and the two of them?

Qi Yuan saw his calm and composed demeanor.

She gave him another long look.

"Our sect and the Divine Fist Sect have had constant friction for hundreds of years, and the rivalry between our disciples has never ceased. Even when we are in the wrong, we should still fight for it to the end. However, since my junior brother's family is located in the inner city, and Elder Zheng and we have also moved here, the Divine Fist Sect will inevitably take advantage of this situation."

"And that's why I specifically sought you out this time..."

"In fact, it was Elder Zheng who instructed you that although you are not yet registered in the sect, the moment you hold the Xuanxiao Token, you are an inner disciple. If you encounter the Divine Fist Sect, you must not back down and disgrace the sect."

He went on to talk about the later parts.

His expression turned extremely serious.

"Whenever the reputation of the sect is involved, the disciples of the sect may shed their blood or cut off their heads, but they must never bring shame upon the sect's dignity."

"I hope my junior brother will keep this in mind."

"Yes."

Qin Jiu nodded solemnly.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan's expression softened, and he said, "There's one more thing."

"This morning, three Willow Tendon experts from the Divine Fist Sect hurriedly left the city and entered Songshan. Elder Zheng had already gone after them, and our sect's Divine Guard Army has not yet arrived. Right now, only Senior Brother Jinghua and I are the strongest in the Qin Mansion. Junior Brother, you should send someone to keep an eye on the movements of the Divine Fist Sect disciples in the city to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation."

"Elder Zheng went out?"

Qin Jiu was taken aback.

But they quickly realized what was happening.

The three from the Divine Fist Sect were probably heading towards that so-called rare treasure. Zheng Dahai chased after them, likely out of fear that something might go wrong.

really.

Qi Yuan nodded at this moment.

"Now that you've entered the inner sect, I may tell you about this, but please remember not to spread it outside."

"This Songshan County is named after Songshan Mountain. Its mountain range stretches endlessly, and the mountains contain the energy of the earth's veins. This vein was altered by the people of a great sect using demonic and turbid energy, and condensed into a land of creation containing rare treasures. On the day this treasure took shape, strange phenomena appeared in the sky."

As they were talking.

Qi Yuan raised his hand and stretched it out of the pavilion, catching a snowflake.

Then put your fingers together and crush it.

"The reason why it snows in July in this Songshan area is due to the rare treasure. However, according to Elder Zheng's estimation, it should take another year or two for the treasure to be nurtured before it is fully revealed."

"He chased after them."

"It's because I'm afraid those people will destroy that precious land."

"What is this extraordinary treasure?"

Qin Jiu asked curiously.

Qi Yuan shook his head: "We don't know yet, but Elder Zheng once said that this treasure is related to condensing true qi and is extremely precious."

"Condensing true qi?" Qin Jiu asked doubtfully. "Senior Brother Qi, although I have no master, I know that after breaking through to the Inner Strength level through the Three Refinements, one can cultivate secret techniques to nurture the secret power of the internal organs, and then transform internal energy into qi, breaking through to the Willow Tendon level above the Inner Strength level."

"Could it be that internal energy needs external assistance to transform into qi?"

Three Refinements to Open the Meridians.

This realm connects all the meridians in the body, allowing internal energy to fill all the meridians. When martial arts are used, their power is more than ten times that of the Great Perfection of Bone Forging.

After breaking through to internal strength.

It can then use internal energy to nourish the internal organs, prolong life, and make a person strong and vigorous.

As for the martial arts realm after internal strength is achieved.

Qin Jiu only knew a few words about the Liu Jin level, and no other information could be found even after searching the entire county, so he was very puzzled.

"It's normal for my junior brother to have this question."

Qi Yuan pondered and said, "It is true that internal strength can be transformed into qi simply by cultivating secret power through secret methods. However, the Willow Tendon realm is extremely special. It is related to the foundation of martial arts and is also the key to becoming a grandmaster in the future."

"Its importance lies in its true qi."

"Of all martial arts, those that imitate form are the most important; hence, martial arts are divided into inferior, middle, and superior levels. Similarly, the true qi of the Willow Tendon Realm also has different qualities. The higher the quality, the greater the chance of forming a elixir when one cultivates qi in the future. Moreover, the quality also relates to one's strength in battle."

"However, this excludes those with exceptional talent."

"Most martial artists, after breaking through the Willow Tendon, only have lower-grade true qi. If they want to improve its quality, they can only rely on external objects to refine it."

"I see."

Qin Jiu's expression changed slightly.

If the extraordinary treasures nurtured by the earth's veins in Ruosong Mountain are truly related to this.

That must be an incredibly precious treasure.

After all, it had only just taken shape, yet it had already caused such a strange phenomenon in the heavens...

"Junior brother is currently only at the third level of cultivation."

"There's no need to think that far ahead."

Qi Yuan noticed that he was lost in thought.

I couldn't help but offer a reminder.

远？

Upon hearing this, Qin Jiu did not refute anything. According to normal martial artists, the Three Refinements to Open the Meridians do indeed require time to hone.

No matter what, it involves the meridians of the whole body.

No amount of caution is too much.

But he's different.

With the ability to revive a withered tree, Qin Jiu could brute force any improvement related to his physique without fear of harming himself. What others needed three or even more than ten years to complete, he could finish in just a few months.

Soon.

Qi Yuan took his leave.

Qin Jiu sat alone in the pavilion and quietly turned on the light.

"The Baili family... a prodigy..."

Recalling what Qi Yuan had said earlier, he moved his mind and swept from the inner city to the outer city, finally finding a wisp of black light.

……

The outer city, west of the city.

Inside a four-courtyard house.

Several imposing figures gathered together, with a woman at the head, wielding a gleaming silver spear, clad in silver armor, her brows furrowed with menace, exuding a commanding presence.

"The people of my Baili family shouldn't just die quietly in Songshan County. Speed ​​up your investigation! Find out everything about those two outer disciples, and who Baili Ce met after entering the city. Do you understand?!"

"Senior Sister Baili, we haven't yet joined the Divine Fist Sect and don't have that disciple status. Many forces in the city don't treat us very well, and the Demon Suppression Division is keeping an eye on us..."

"waste!"

The woman raised her eyebrows and rebuked, "In this county, my Divine Fist Sect is the law of the Great Zhou. What power dares to question your identity? Don't make excuses for your incompetence."

"I only care about the results."

"If you still have nothing before sunset, you can all get out of here."

……

The Qin residence, east wing.

After listening to their conversation, Qin Jiu frowned slightly. He first turned off the light, then looked towards the door.

next moment.

Qin Xuanzhou walked in.

"Report to the master of the family."

He walked up to Qin Jiu and bowed slightly: "Qin Jing just sent someone to deliver a Fire Scale Pearl."

"Fire Scale Pearl?"

"This is a special fourth-tier spirit beast king's inner core. Ordinary people who carry it with them will be immune to heat and cold, and free from all diseases. It also nourishes yin, beautifies the complexion, and prolongs life. Martial artists who consume it can strengthen their internal qi and blood, nourish their physique, and have a miraculous effect on bone forging. Qin Jingzheng said that the three of them worked together to exchange for it at the Demon Suppression Division, and it was specially given to the old lady."
