Chapter 96: Time flies

"what……!"

Seeing Mo Fei's longing expression, Yu Yan immediately softened.

After a moment's thought, she said softly that although her mother was reluctant, she could help her cousin persuade her.

If all else fails, you can secretly bring your cousin in.

"Ding! The martial arts collection is complete. The host has collected a large number of martial arts classics. Reward: 5 Counterattack Points."

"This collection includes a large number of martial arts techniques. If you wish to learn them, the system will automatically help you deduce the basics."

Mo Fei was looking through the catalog of martial arts techniques in the system interface, searching for a martial art that interested him.

"This dog-beating stick technique is not bad."

"The Flower-Picking Finger," "The Leaf-Treating Finger," and "The Formless Finger"

"It seems that Kumārajīva knows all three of these techniques."

"Lion's Roar, this has not been recorded before."

"System, can't you assign rank to lower-level users? It's so troublesome to find them like this!"

Because there were too many cultivation techniques included, Mo Fei subconsciously made a comment.

Unexpectedly, after Mo Fei complained, the system actually categorized the techniques into levels according to their rarity in the blink of an eye.

Among the top-ranked martial arts are techniques such as Shifting Stars, Vajra Palm, Flaming Saber, and Dog-Beating Stick Technique.

Other martial arts are too low-level; perhaps they have no interest in learning them.

"System! First, help me learn the 'Star Shift' and 'Lingbo Steps' techniques."

Considering that Lion's Roar is a relatively rare type of sonic attack, Mo Fei decided to learn it as well.

As various complex information was inputted into Mo Fei's mind by the system, he quickly grasped the basics of these techniques.

However, because Mo Fei possessed martial arts such as the Sacred Heart Technique, ordinary martial arts were completely unacceptable to him.

The only thing that really interested him was the Murong family's signature skill, the "Shifting Stars and Changing Positions."

After the system helped him deduce the basics, he gained a general understanding of the technique and discovered that it was a skill similar to Tai Chi, using the opponent's force against them.

The power of the "Shifting Stars" technique lies in its ability to freely redirect the opponent's martial arts skills, internal energy, and the force and direction of their attacks. This allows the attacker to injure the opponent or a third party, while the user remains unharmed.

However, if the practitioner's mastery of the "Shifting Stars" technique has not yet reached its peak, or if the practitioner's martial arts skills are inferior to those of their opponent, then this divine skill should not be used lightly.

Otherwise, the opponent's martial arts skills and techniques will be misdirected, causing harm to the practitioner.

"This martial art is a perfect match for Bei Ming. One can absorb energy continuously, and the other can spin freely."

……

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kumārajīva was already interrogating Duan Yu.

Because Duan Yu was too cunning, Mo Fei had specifically reminded Kumārajīva before leaving, instructing him to gag Duan Yu during the interrogation, giving him no chance to say anything other than confess to the martial arts techniques.

At this moment, Duan Yu was acupunctured and felt numb, his whole body aching as if being eaten by insects or bitten by rats.

Kumārajīva also tied him to a wooden chair, soaked thick yellow paper, and applied it to his face to prevent him from breathing. With each breath, he would inhale a large amount of water droplets into his nasal cavity.

These two moves alone were enough to break Duan Yu, a young master from a noble family who had grown up in a royal palace. He whimpered and surrendered, agreeing to confess.

"You mean the master has already dealt with Duan Yu?"

Upon hearing his subordinate Bao Butong's report, Mo Fei, though he had anticipated that Duan Yu would confess sooner or later, did not expect Duan Yu to be such a spineless coward who could not withstand the pressure for such a short time.

When Mo Fei arrived at the room where Kumārajīva was interrogating Duan Yu, and saw him disheveled, pale, and haggard, he gained a new understanding of Kumārajīva.

"Master, what skill you have! This kid was still so stubborn when I left, but you managed to pry his mouth open in just a short while. I am truly impressed."

Kumārajīva was delighted by Mo Fei's flattery and boasted with a smug look, "This kid is too useless. I could only use 20% of my interrogation skills before he couldn't hold on. I really didn't get to enjoy myself to the fullest."

Having just undergone torture, Duan Yu now resembled a defeated dog, barely alive after falling into the water.

Mo Fei slowly walked up to him, extended his folding fan, lifted his chin, and looked directly into his somewhat unfocused eyes, saying:

"Young Master Duan? I heard from the master that you're willing to confess?"

Duan Yu was still somewhat delirious. When he heard Mo Fei's question, he just stared at Mo Fei without answering.

Mo Fei frowned slightly and turned his head, saying, "Young Master Duan doesn't seem to be cooperating. Master, why don't you let Young Master Duan try a few of the techniques you haven't used before?"

"No...! I'll talk, I'll talk!"

Upon hearing that he was to be tortured, Duan Yu immediately perked up and eagerly spoke up:

"Are you really willing to talk? I hope it won't be too difficult for you?"

Could it be that he confirmed this again?

Duan Yu looked at Mo Fei, who was smiling, but saw that his smile was full of murderous intent. The term "smiling tiger" seemed to have been tailor-made for him.

He nodded eagerly and said, "I'm willing, it's no trouble at all!"

"Okay, you go ahead and tell us, we're listening."

"Don't even think about trying to fool us with fakes. If I feel you're lying even a little bit, Master, you can try every kind of torture on him first."

Kumārajīva also chimed in, quite agreeing:

"Alright! I haven't had enough fun yet."

So, under the watchful eyes of Mo Fei and Kumārajīva, Duan Yu began to explain the Six Meridians Divine Sword manual.

Kumārajīva, on the other hand, simply stood right next to Duan Yu, listening to his explanation while simultaneously circulating his internal energy.

By the time Duan Yu finished speaking, Kumārajīva had already circulated his qi for a week.

"Master, is there anything wrong with what this young man said?"

While asking Kumārajīva, he secretly checked the system notifications.

"Ding! A fragmented and reversed version of the Six Meridians Divine Sword has been collected. Once the host cultivates it, although he may achieve some minor success, he will inevitably go astray and become insane."

Mo Fei gave Duan Yu a cold look, but did not choose to expose him on the spot.

"I have just tried this method once and I feel that the boy is not lying. However, we will need to try it more in the future before we can finally confirm it."

When Kumārajīva heard Mo Fei's question, he replied with a smile. He had finally obtained the Six Meridians Divine Sword that he had been longing for, so how could he not be excited?

"Then I'll congratulate you in advance, Master. Why don't you stay at my Swallow's Nest for a few days? That way you won't have to spend time looking for another place to stay."

After a moment's thought, Kumārajīva agreed to Mo Fei's suggestion.

After having Abi take Kumārajīva to arrange accommodations, he dismissed everyone else in the room and chose to stay alone with Duan Yu.

“Young Master Duan has quite the tricks. You reversed the way you taught the cultivation method, and you even fooled the master.”

Mo Fei's words sent a shockwave through Duan Yu's heart, and an overwhelming sense of fear instantly filled him.

But he still forced himself to remain calm and asked in return:

"Young Master Murong, what are you saying? I taught you the Six Meridians Divine Sword without holding anything back. Are you trying to frame me?"

"Hmph! Looks like you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin."

"By the way! Your Lingbo Weibu and Beiming Divine Skill are quite useful, aren't they? I wonder how well you've mastered them?"
