All-class Gu Immortal

Chapter 78 Joining the Demon Suppression Division

"That's right, this is the White Cloud Silk Entangling Force, one of the two great forces that can be cultivated after practicing the White Cloud Palm Technique to the Blood Exchange Realm."

This force, like a serpent coiling its silk, is continuous and unbroken, making it ideal for prolonged battles when combined with the Green Wood Sutra.

"It can wear down enemies of the same level until they are exhausted." Wei Sheng withdrew his palm.

"Two kinds of power? The White Cloud Palm Technique can cultivate two kinds of power? What is the other kind of power?" Zhou Qing asked curiously, but noticed that Wei Sheng's expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

"Never mind, you'll find out about this sooner or later." Wei Sheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly sighed.

"My second disciple was named Chen Hong. I treated him like my own son, and even betrothed Hongyu to him, hoping that he would inherit my mantle."

Unexpectedly, he was eager for quick success and tried to take shortcuts. He was bewitched by the Witch God Cult and stole the Tiger Demon Tai Sui, the most precious treasure of my Baiyun lineage.

Although Hongyu later cleaned up my mess, the Tiger Demon Tai Sui was taken over by the Witch God Sect, and my Baiyun lineage suffered heavy losses.

As a result, later practitioners could only cultivate the Silk Reeling Force, but were unable to comprehend the Tiger Demon Force.

"They truly deserve to die!" Zhou Qing said in a deep voice. "Those who are ungrateful are worse than pigs and dogs."

Wei Sheng changed the subject: "The most important thing about the Silk Reeling Force is the 'reeling' aspect, which is suitable for prolonged battles. The Tiger Demon Force, on the other hand, is explosive, fierce, and domineering."

The red jade was able to condense eight streams of qi and blood, thanks to the powerful medicinal properties of the Tiger Demon Tai Sui.

"The reason I helped you break through early is because later practitioners, without the assistance of the Tiger Demon Grand Duke, would find it much more difficult to cultivate the Tiger Demon Force."

Cultivating the Silk Reeling Force requires less in terms of physical constitution and blood energy, so condensing six streams of blood energy is sufficient.

Wei Sheng added.

"I see." Zhou Qing suddenly realized, not expecting there to be such an explanation.

Wei Sheng continued, "Actually, the Silk Reeling Force is more compatible with the Wei family's Green Wood Scripture."

The saying goes that one must train to resemble a snake, with the power of green wood containing blood and coiling silk.

By combining the Silk-Reeling Force with the Green Wood Scripture, one can potentially develop a superior physical constitution, such as the 'Spirit Snake Appearance'.

Now that you've taken the Spirit Serpent Transformation Pill, if breaking through to a higher realm is your top priority, then the Entangling Silk Technique is more suitable for you to cultivate.

"I will follow Master's teachings," Zhou Qing said respectfully.

Even if he had a choice, he would most likely choose to cultivate the Spirit Serpent Force.

Because it's easy to practice.

Once you reach a higher level of understanding and stand at a higher vantage point, things that were impossible before may become achievable in the future.

"Actually, this White Cloud Silk Entangling Force should have been taught to you when you had perfected your physical training and even completed the Tendon Transformation."

Since you've already taken the Spirit Serpent Transformation Pill, I might as well teach you the method of cultivating internal energy ahead of time.

How much you can understand depends on your own comprehension.

After speaking, Wei Sheng took out a sheepskin scroll from his bosom, shook it gently, and the scroll unfolded, revealing the Qi and Blood Fundamental Diagram that he had shown Zhou Qing last time.

On a square parchment scroll, the white snake is depicted with lifelike detail, each scale gleaming with a cold light.

This time, Zhou Qing took the Spirit Serpent Transformation Pill and ate medicinal food, and his body was full of qi and blood, ready to burst forth.

Wei Sheng once again flew to the center of the courtyard and began practicing the White Cloud Palm Technique.

Zhou Qing tried his best to mobilize his qi and blood and practiced with Wei Sheng, but he still couldn't get the hang of it.

However, he was not discouraged.

"By the way, after mastering the White Cloud Palm Technique to its perfect stage, it generates hidden strength. I wonder if this is helpful for cultivating the Silk Reeling Force."

Zhou Qing practiced until he was covered in sweat, when suddenly a thought struck him and he realized this.

He stopped what he was doing, closed his eyes, and pondered, trying to find the right feeling.

'Sure enough, it's still too early.' Wei Sheng sighed inwardly as he saw Zhou Qing close his eyes and stop moving.

Zhou Qing surprised him one after another, and for a time, he even treated him like his former second disciple, guiding him with great care.

Unfortunately, to develop true strength, both physical constitution and comprehension are indispensable.

"Hmm?" Just as Wei Sheng was about to let Zhou Qing rest for a while, Zhou Qing suddenly moved.

He slowly raised his hand, preparing to strike.

The movements were as slow as practicing stance training.

However, as Zhou Qing slowly unleashed the White Cloud Palm Technique, Wei Sheng's pupils suddenly dilated, and he sensed "power" emanating from Zhou Qing.

The so-called "momentum" refers to the ability to master a martial art to the point of perfection, where one can effortlessly and freely adapt to changing circumstances and execute every move with ease.

Martial artists who have mastered "momentum" are more likely to develop internal strength.

"Is this kid exceptionally gifted? I just didn't notice it before?" Wei Sheng was both surprised and delighted, his expression quite interesting.

Zhou Qing did not open his eyes. He was completely focused on comprehending Wei Sheng's movements using the Silk Reeling Force, and was attempting to replicate Wei Sheng's movements by applying hidden force with the White Cloud Palm Technique.

【Technique: Silk Reeling Force】

[Progress: Beginner (5/1000)]

‘It’s done! ’

When Zhou Qing opened his eyes, a line of text appeared in his vision, which made him smile.

As long as a progress bar appears on the jade tablet, it means that this skill will only progress and will not regress; mastering it is only a matter of time.

Zhou Qing snapped out of her daze and looked at Wei Sheng beside her, only to see him standing expressionlessly with his hands behind his back.

"Master?"

"So-so, keep trying," Wei Sheng said casually.

"Yes, Master," Zhou Qing replied respectfully. He was indeed not a genius and could only rely on the tedious method of slowly grinding away.

"That's enough for today's training. You can go and rest now," Wei Sheng waved his hand.

"Yes, disciple takes his leave." Zhou Qing bowed and withdrew, sensing that Wei Sheng's attitude had cooled considerably, perhaps because he was somewhat disappointed in him.

"and many more."

Zhou Qing had just stepped onto the corridor when Wei Sheng called out to him.

“Master.” Zhou Qing stopped.

“I suddenly remembered that Hongyu’s situation isn’t extremely urgent. I’ll stay a few days later. You can stay in the backyard for the next few days,” Wei Sheng said in a deep voice.

"Yes! Thank you, Master!" Zhou Qing's face lit up with joy. It seemed that Wei Sheng thought he was not talented enough, so he was going to guide him for a few more days. He was truly a good master.

"Go."

"The disciple retire."

Zhou Qing bowed and withdrew.

As soon as Zhou Qing's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, Wei Sheng suddenly clapped his hands.

"We need to find this kid a good place; we can't waste his talent. It just so happens that Xiao Kang has come to town; the Demon Suppression Division would be a good fit."

Wei Sheng looked thoughtful.

He originally thought that with Zhou Qing's talent, his absence for a few months wouldn't cause any major problems.

Now that Zhou Qing has shown excellent comprehension, I want to focus on cultivating him.

Thinking of this, Wei Sheng returned to his study, picked up paper and pen, and quickly began to write.

Seven days later, Wei Sheng left Heishan Town without a word.

Following his instructions before leaving, Zhou Qing brought a letter to Baiweilou and went to find a martial artist named Xiao Kang.

He asked the innkeeper, Ma Liu, to deliver the letter. A moment later, Ma Liu led him up to the third floor and to the door of the top-class room.

"Lord Xiao, Zhou Qing has arrived," Ma Liu said respectfully.

"Let him in," a deep voice came from inside.

"Please." Ma Liu pushed open the door, bowed, and stepped back.

Zhou Qing entered the room and saw a middle-aged man dressed in a black official's uniform with a flying bird pattern printed on his chest sitting at the table, holding a letter in his hand.

"So you're Zhou Qing, the Poison Demon's new disciple? He seems to care a lot about you."

The middle-aged man gave a cold laugh, flicked his sleeve, and the letter floated toward Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing subconsciously reached out to take it, and when he saw the contents of the letter, his expression immediately became quite interesting.

"Take good care of my disciple, or I'll make you pay when I get back."

The letter was not signed, but only had a large handprint.

Zhou Qing's lips twitched.

Just as Zhou Qing was wondering what to say to ease the tension, Xiao Kang spoke up.

"You'll start as an inspector under Xue Wei."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands.

A female martial artist emerged from the next room. She wore a fitted black official robe, her long legs encased in crisp black trousers, as strong and resilient as bamboo shoots. She wore gleaming black official boots, and walked with a commanding presence. Her long, black hair was tied up high, giving her an air of heroic spirit.

Compared to Xiao Kang, who had an ordinary appearance, she possessed more of Shangguan's charisma.
