Sword from Songshan

Chapter 132: Star Absorbing Technique
"Even with such serious injuries, he can still run so fast!"

"Even though the leader was injured first, this person was able to fight with him for several rounds, which shows that his martial arts skills are not low."

After more than half an hour and chasing for nearly a hundred miles, Lu Nanxing was only 20 to 30 meters ahead. His body was swaying and he looked like he would collapse at any time, but he could not be caught up.

"stop!"

After chasing for a while, Bao Dachu suddenly stopped and stopped the other three.

"I'm afraid we've fallen into a trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"

"Tune the tiger away from the mountain?"

Qin Weibang and the other two frowned. They were all old hands, so how could they not have thought of this?

However, with such a huge achievement in front of us, who could not be tempted? Therefore, we have a lucky mentality.

But now it seems that they may have lost the bet.

After they stopped, Lu Nanxing, who was originally in a panic, ran a few steps and saw that no one was catching up with him, then he stopped and even turned back to look at them, as if to say, come on, keep chasing.

"Go back quickly!"

The four people's faces changed and they immediately turned around and went back.

Even though he fell into a trap, he was still guarded by the Four Friends of Plum Manor. Those four brothers didn't have a high status in the sect, but their martial arts were pretty good, otherwise they wouldn't have been assigned to guard Ren Woxing.

Maybe it’s still not too late to go back now!
"Ah."

Looking at the Demon Cult elder who was returning in a hurry, Lu Nanxing chuckled. It would take an hour to go back and forth, so there was no way he could make it in time.

Then he frowned and pulled out the Emei spear that was stuck in his left chest.

This is not only a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, but also a trick of inflicting pain on oneself.

If he hadn't really hit himself hard, how could he have hidden it from the eyes of the four evil sect elders?

However, what they didn't know was that for Lu Nanxing, who had mastered the Shenzhao Gong, this kind of trauma would not have much impact on him as long as it did not damage his vital organs.

The wound had already been sealed with blood coagulation poison, and Lu Nanxing continued with some exercise and conditioning, and in just a few moments, the wound was healed.

"go!"

With a sigh of relief, Lu Nanxing left.

But he did not turn back, but continued to move forward.

No need to consider other people's speed anymore, he used his Qinggong skills to run at full speed, which was more than twice as fast as before.

In this way, he ran madly for several hours until dawn and returned to Meizhuang.

For some unknown reason, the Demon Cult suddenly transferred Ren Woxing. To Ren Yingying and the others, Meizhuang was no longer valuable, but to Lu Nanxing, it was just right!
"Haven't you noticed yet?"

After jumping over the wall and entering the farm, one can see some servants cleaning and busying themselves. It is obvious that they are unaware that their four masters have already abandoned the farm.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lu Nanxing avoided these servants and after some searching, he found Huang Zhonggong's residence.

Mei Manor is quite large and has many rooms, but the four owners have different hobbies in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they can be easily distinguished by looking at the layout.

He slipped in and, ignoring the guqin and music scores, Lu Nanxing went straight into the inner room.

As guards, the Four Friends of Meizhuang have no family, so the so-called inner room is just a cover.

There was only a bed and a table inside. Lu Nanxing walked to the bed and lifted the bedding, revealing an iron plate that was four feet wide and five feet long.

There was a copper ring on it. Lu Nanxing reached out and lifted it up, and there was a large square hole underneath.

"Have it!"

This place is the only entrance to the dungeon where Ren Woxing is imprisoned!

Lu Nanxing was delighted and jumped directly into it.

Although it is a tunnel, there is an oil lamp on the wall next to it. The yellow light can barely provide illumination.

After walking about seven or eight meters, there was no way forward. A closer look revealed that there was actually a stone door, which was extremely heavy and fitted tightly against the wall, so it was easy to mistake it for a dead end.

To open the stone door, a key is needed. Lu Nanxing has already found the keyhole, but the key is with the four friends of Meizhuang. How can he get it now?

"Humph."

Having anticipated this, Lu Nanxing smiled lightly and took off the huge sword from behind him.

Without any hesitation, he used the power of the mountain sword and swung the sword towards the stone gate in front of him.

Boom~!

Under the heavy sword, the stone door that was more than two feet thick was broken open.

Waving his sleeves to clear away the stirred up dust, Lu Nanxing stepped in.

Continuing forward, the terrain began to lower and the dungeon was deep under the West Lake.

After walking thirty or forty meters, there was another iron gate. This time, Lu Nanxing did not use the sword, but instead used all his palm strength. After several consecutive palm strikes, he destroyed the connection between the iron gate and the wall, and the iron gate fell down.

Continuing forward, the terrain became lower and lower, and the air became gradually more stuffy. This time I walked several hundred meters and arrived at the third door.

There were actually two wooden doors nailed with cotton wool, with two iron doors in between. Although the wooden doors were not as solid as the iron doors, the cotton wool on them could absorb the palm force, which was just to prevent Ren Woxing from breaking through the doors.

Unfortunately, the imprisoned Ren Woxing had no sword in his hand, but Lu Nanxing did.

First he used Juque to break the wooden door, and then he used his palm power to slap open the iron door. This only took a little effort.

Then just keep going forward and there will be no more obstacles.

After walking for a few dozen meters, the tunnel suddenly became narrower and lower as we went deeper, so much so that we had to bend over to move forward.

Lu Nanxing was delighted. After walking for a while, he finally saw a heavy iron prison door!

Here is the cell where Ren Woxing is imprisoned!
"really."

Looking at the open prison door, Lu Nanxing showed a look of joy.

In order to open the prison door, four keys kept by the four friends of Meizhuang were needed, but Ren Woxing had been taken away, and after the prison door was opened, they were too lazy to close it again.

This saved Lu Nanxing a lot of energy and he immediately went into the cell.

It was only about ten feet square, with a bed against the wall and a toilet in the corner, and nothing else.

There were thick iron rings embedded in the wall, which were used to restrain Ren Woxing.

I have to say that it took a lot of time and effort to imprison Ren Woxing.

Lu Nanxing couldn't help but smile. Wouldn't it have been better to kill him with one sword back then? Why go through all this trouble?

Although Dongfang Bubai is the best martial artist in the world, he is not yet to the point of being unscrupulous.

That's good.

However, these are not the key points. Lu Nanxing quickly walked to the bed, lifted the straw mat, revealing the iron plate underneath.

Bringing the oil lamp closer, under the dim light, I could see the coin-sized scribbles:

In my life, I have been happy to take revenge, killed people like flies, and was imprisoned at the bottom of a lake... I leave this book here, so that future generations of young men can learn from it and conquer the world... First, the sitting skill... You should make your Dantian always like an empty box, always like a deep valley...

"correct!"

After a quick glance, Lu Nanxing looked excited. This was exactly the Star-Absorbing Technique!
In the entire world of Smiling Proud Wanderer, there are only three local magical skills: Sunflower Manual, Dugu Nine Swords, and Star Absorbing Technique!
As for the Exorcism Sword Technique, it originally came from the Sunflower Manual.

Compared with the Sunflower Manual, it has been copied several times after it was leaked from the Shaolin Temple in Putian. Although the original has been destroyed, there are still fragments and the Book of the Sword of Exorcism, which are now learned by Dongfang Bubai and Lin Zhennan respectively.

Only Ren Woxing can use the Star-Absorbing Art. In today's world, Ren Woxing is the only one who knows the secret of the Star-Absorbing Art.

After being imprisoned, Ren Woxing felt that there was no hope for him to see the light of day again. Just like the words he engraved on the iron plate, he did not want this unique skill to be lost, so he left the secret book here.

This secret book was originally left by Jin Yong to Linghu Chong.

But because Lu Nanxing traveled through time, the plot has already deviated from its original trajectory, and Linghu Chong did not come to Meizhuang to rescue Ren Woxing.

Moreover, before anyone could come to rescue him, Ren Woxing was taken away by Dongfang Bubai first.

Thus, this secret book was left here.

"How can such a magical skill be buried at the bottom of the lake?"

Lu Nanxing smiled and immediately took out the paper and pen he had prepared. He put the oil lamp aside and began to copy the secret manual of the Star-Absorbing Technique in the dim light.

The number of words is not that many. Just imagine how many words can be written on a small bed.

It only took Lu Nanxing an incense stick of time to copy the entire text.

Check it twice and make sure it is correct before you feel relieved.

"In that case."

Looking at the iron plate in front of him, Lu Nanxing's face darkened. He took out the Golden Snake Sword from behind him and used the blade of the sword to erase all the words on it!

In the original novel, Linghu Chong thought it was an evil method that harmed people, and destroyed the inscriptions, so that no one could learn the Star Absorbing Technique from here anymore.

Whether it is intentional or unintentional, the so-called unique skills should not only be powerful, but also unique. If everyone can do it, what is the point?

"Can I practice?"

The ink on the manuscript had dried. Lu Nanxing picked it up and took another look at it, pondering in his heart.

The Star Absorbing Art is the authentic inheritance of the 'Northern Sea Divine Art'. Although some parts were lost during the transmission process, the final effect is the same, which is to absorb the internal energy of others for personal use!

The Bei Ming Divine Art absorbs the internal force of others, which is the principle of negative pole attracting positive pole. The route of Bei Ming Divine Art is opposite to common sense, with oneself as the negative pole and the opponent's internal force as the positive pole, thus absorbing it.

The Star Absorbing Law is different in that it emptyes the Dantian like a black hole to absorb the internal strength of others.

Therefore, if you want to practice this magical skill, you must first disperse all your internal energy.

If he had obtained it earlier, with Lu Nanxing's limited internal strength at that time, it would have been easy to disperse.

Now that he has mastered the Shenzhao Gong, and has accumulated skills for more than 30 years, how can he bear to give it up?

but……

It is not necessary to disperse the energy when practicing the Star Absorbing Technique.

It is always like an empty box and a deep valley. The key to the Star-Absorbing Technique is to empty the Dantian and then disperse all the internal force into the meridians of the whole body.

The internal energy of ordinary people is stored in the Dantian, so it must be completely dissipated before practicing.

But Lu Nanxing is different. He practices Shenzhao Gong, and his internal energy fills his whole body and is no longer limited to his dantian.

If he just empties his Dantian, wouldn't he be able to practice the Star Absorbing Technique?

However, it is hard to say whether emptying the Dantian will affect other internal forces.

Therefore, he is currently unsure whether Lu Nanxing can practice this Star-Absorbing Technique.

You have to follow the secret recipe and study and try carefully to get results.

"gone!"

Even if you cannot practice it yourself, you can still pass on this unique skill to others.

We’ll talk about the specific solution when we get back.

Lu Nanxing smiled and left immediately.

He returned along the same route and destroyed the three large gates blocking the way. It was much faster than when he came here.

In just a moment, Lu Nanxing jumped out of the tunnel.

"Ah~! There's a thief!"

A maid stood at the door holding a basin of water. She looked at Lu Nanxing who suddenly came out of the bed. She was startled at first, then ran out shouting.

It was early morning, so he must have come to help Huang Zhonggong wash up.

Although she was just a maid, she was still pretty. Lu Nanxing couldn't help but chuckle. The four friends at Meizhuang really lived a carefree life.

He walked out of the room quickly, and jumped onto the roof with his Qinggong skills. The servants who came over were just ordinary people who didn't know martial arts. Lu Nanxing ignored them and left Plum Manor by flying over the eaves and walls.

"there."

Lu Nanxing ran straight to the north without stopping.

A few hours later, it was already afternoon, and they arrived at a barren mountain.

Hurrah~!

A figure suddenly appeared in a stone forest and slapped Lu Nanxing with a palm.

Lu Nanxing was prepared and did not panic. He also met the attack with a palm.

Bang~!

The two palms separated as soon as they touched, with a sound like thunder. The opponent stood still, but Lu Nanxing retreated three steps.

"Boy, you have great skills."

The opponent did not continue to attack, but looked at Lu Nanxing with interest.

"You're not bad, old man."

Lu Nanxing chuckled and looked at the other person.

He was very tall, and although he looked very old, his hair and beard were all black, with no gray hair at all. He had a long face, a pale complexion, and delicate eyebrows and eyes with a hint of anger.

Come to think of it, given Ren Woxing's status, how could he not be angry when being called old man directly?

Who else could this old man who launched a sneak attack be other than Ren Woxing?

Immediately afterwards, Ren Yingying, Xiang Wentian and Shangguan Yun also walked out of the stone forest.

Last night, after Lu Nanxing led away Bao Dachu and his four companions, only the four friends from Meizhuang were left. They were no match for them at all and easily rescued Ren Woxing.

Lu Nanxing had already made an appointment with Ren Yingying to meet here.

"Boy, I have heard about your situation from Yingying. I admire you very much."

Suppressing his anger for the moment, Ren Woxing spoke directly.

"What future do you have in Songshan Sect? From now on, you will follow me."

"Thank you for your appreciation, Master Ren, but Miss Ren and I are just cooperating, and I have never thought of joining the Sun Moon Sect."

Lu Nanxing smiled and then turned to Ren Yingying.

"Since Master Ren has been rescued, Miss Ren should also keep her promise and give me the remaining two poisons."

"Ah."

Ren Yingying chuckled and gave Lu Nanxing a blank look.

Obviously, she had no intention of keeping her promise.

There is a difference between good and evil, she and Lu Nanxing are enemies!
Now that Ren Woxing has been rescued and the cooperation is over, how could she continue to aid the enemy?

"Boy, as long as you join me, not only poisons, but also rare treasures in the world will be easily obtained."

"The Demon Cult is indeed dishonest. Fortunately, I didn't suffer any loss."

Lu Nanxing shook his head, too lazy to continue pestering, and turned to leave.

"Didn't you hear me talking to you?"

Being ignored by Lu Nanxing, Ren Woxing immediately became furious and shouted loudly, swinging his palm towards Lu Nanxing again.

Lu Nanxing instantly drew out the Juque behind him and rushed forward to meet the enemy.

I have to say that Ren Woxing, who had just been released from prison, was very angry.

The moves were ferocious and vicious, and every one of them hit Lu Nanxing's vital points.

However, Lu Nanxing was not someone who would allow himself to be bullied. He used the Juque sword technique and launched a fierce attack using the mountain sword force and wind sword force.

"Sword power!"

Ren Woxing opened his eyes slightly and looked at Lu Nanxing in surprise again.

I didn't expect that he has such accomplishments at such a young age. This is not something Zuo Lengchan can teach.

Ren Yingying and the other two stood on the sidelines, with no intention of taking action for the time being.

In their opinion, Ren Woxing's martial arts was better than Lu Nanxing's. If they took action, they would be seen as bringing Ren Woxing down.

And this is exactly the fact. Ren Woxing is already half a step away from being the best in the world. He is only second to Dongfang Bubai, Master Fang Zheng and Feng Qingyang.

Although Lu Nanxing is only first-rate, he is still far from the top.

Besides, Ren Woxing had been imprisoned for twelve years and had been feeling depressed for a long time, so he needed someone to vent his emotions.

Pa~!

After exchanging dozens of moves, Ren Woxing seized the opportunity, changed his palm into a claw, grabbed Lu Nanxing's wrist, and a sneer appeared on his face.

"Boy, if you surrender now, I can spare your life!"

"Stop talking big words."

Lu Nanxing snorted coldly and hit Ren Woxing with his other hand.

Ren Woxing also tried to stop him with one hand, then his face darkened.

"Ok?"

Lu Nanxing frowned and could clearly feel a sudden suction force coming from the Neiguan and Waiguan acupoints on his wrist!
