Yuan Zun: Starting with the Eight Ancestral Symbols

Chapter 17 Source Technique Deduction
"Flowing Water and Shattering Rock Palm (incomplete), a mid-grade source technique. This name sounds familiar." Muchen flipped through the places where source techniques were placed in the Great Zhou Mansion. Basically, they were of low and mid-grade.

In Yuanzun's world, the lowest grade of source technique is ordinary source technique, which is divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower. This is also the easiest source technique to learn. Above it is the mysterious source technique, which is more difficult to obtain and practice than the ordinary source technique.

By the way, there is a boxing style with a very similar name in a certain anime, called Flowing Water Rock Crushing Fist. Could it be left behind by some time traveler?

Muchen laughed and shook his head. It was unlikely. Because it was incomplete, its power was only that of a mid-grade source technique. If it was complete, it should be able to reach the level of a high-grade source technique, or even a low-grade mysterious source technique.

He chose the attack-type source technique, and then used the ancestral stone to deduce and repair it. If successful, it would be a win.

Muchen didn't take a fancy to the source techniques of body movement collected here because their quality was too low.

For the next ancestral talisman, Muchen most wanted to choose the Space Ancestral Talisman. The strength of the Lord of Space was not the strongest among the eight ancient lords, but as the one who mastered the Space Ancestral Talisman, he was the most difficult to deal with.

The Lord of Space is as slippery as a loach to the demons and enemies. With the power of space in his hands, he can move flexibly, which is more useful than most physical skills.

However, the test of the Space Ancestral Talisman will not be that simple. Before he is absolutely sure, he does not intend to try to refine other Ancestral Talismans. Swallowing the Ancestral Talisman is enough for him now.

Even though he was at the Kaimai realm, his control over the Devouring Ancestral Talisman was less than one tenth.

Mu Chen would not force himself to acquire the source skills of body movement. It would be the best if he could find a suitable one, but there was no need to panic if he couldn't find one. As long as his own strength was strong enough, he could make up for the lack of agility.

Su Youwei chose the middle-grade source technique, the Jade Finger Breaking Technique, which was very dexterous, but extremely lethal. For girls, this source technique was very suitable.

The Flowing Water and Rock-Breaking Palm he chose should be a grand and sweeping source technique.

Zhou Yuan was very envious, but thinking that his eight meridians had not yet been revealed, he did not choose a source technique. At least he had to wait until his meridians were opened before choosing a suitable source technique. Otherwise, he would not be able to use it even if he chose it and could only watch.

I don’t know when he can start practicing. Seeing others opening their meridians, it is impossible not to be envious.

Muchen saw the loneliness in Zhou Yuan's eyes and understood his feelings, but it won't be long. After you meet your future master, you can open your meridians and embark on the path of cultivation.

……

In the ancestral stone space, there was a ball of light and shadow standing in front of Muchen. It looked exactly like Muchen, but there was no expression on his face. He looked like a puppet, which was very strange.

"Uh...I can't imitate it."

Muchen rubbed his stiff face. It was really difficult to have an expressionless, icy face.

"Hahaha, are you the funny guy sent by the monkey?" The little mink covered his belly with his two paws and laughed so hard that he spiraled into the sky.

Muchen's funny behavior almost made Xiao Diao laugh to death.

"boom!"

Muchen used the power of his soul to transform into a stick, and without saying a word, he directly hit the little mink and sent it flying.

"Hey, you won't let people laugh anymore?" Little Diao flew back and said unhappily.

"No, it's just that your smile is too ugly, so you'd better stop smiling." Muchen showed his white teeth.

Xiao Diao's mouth twitched. It was just an excuse. If he wasn't useful, Muchen would have killed him to silence him.

"I think hehehehe, it really fits your current image." Muchen said with a wicked smile.

"Roll rough!"

The little mink rolled his eyes and laughed, which was obviously the laughter of a villain. "Huh!"

The light and shadow suddenly moved, and the figure flashed like flowing clouds and water, without stopping for a moment, and the force of each palm seemed to be able to shatter rocks.

Muchen's eyes lit up. This source technique had something special. If one was entangled in it, he would face continuous palm strikes, but it was suitable for close combat.

This Flowing Water and Rock-Breaking Palm is mainly about combining hardness and softness. It is not a direct and rough move, and it can reduce the force of the enemy's attack.

It’s okay to use it temporarily.

Muchen concentrated his attention and memorized the details of the moves displayed by light and shadow. The function of this deduction was indeed very powerful.

I just don’t know if the Tianyuan Technique and the Shengyuan Technique can be deduced. If they can, that would be really awesome.

"Well, based on this point alone, this stone talisman is a treasure." Xiao Diao said.

The light and shadow evolved by the stone talisman are like an experienced teacher who personally explains and teaches you.

"Well, I just don't know if high-grade moves can be deduced." Muchen nodded, agreeing very much. The second divine object was indeed worthy of its reputation and did not disappoint him.

"I don't know. I was chased by a strong man before I knew the details. You can try it when you have a chance."

As a celestial demon marten, Xiao Diao doesn't know many martial arts, but mostly the magical powers of the celestial demon marten's bloodline.

Unlike humans, the magical powers of monsters are mostly inherited through blood, while this is rarely the case with humans, as most of them are learned.

Of course Muchen knew that the ancestral stone's spiritual liquid and deduced moves were just small functions of the ancestral stone. The most important function of the ancestral stone was to cause huge damage to the demons.

The deduction of martial arts or source arts should also have its limits. It will be very useful in the early stages, but in the later stages you still have to rely on your own understanding.

Watching Su Youwei practicing the Jade-Breaking Finger, Muchen also wanted to learn a cool finger technique.

Su Youwei's talent is beyond doubt. Not long after she started practicing, a faint jade light appeared on her slender fingers. It should not take long for her to succeed in her practice.

"Boy, why don't you open your pulse quickly? Why are you running around?"

Seeing that Mu Chen did not practice, Xiao Diao was speechless. He felt that after refining and devouring the ancestral talisman, his mentality began to drift a little?
"Let's go to the palace and take some resources."

"Xiao Diao, don't you want the Beast Soul Crystal anymore?" Muchen said lightly.

"That's right. You need to combine work and rest. You can't just practice all the time."

Upon hearing that Muchen was going to the palace to ask for the Beast Soul Crystal, Xiao Diao's attitude took a 180-degree turn. He strongly supported Muchen's idea of ​​not having to practice all the time and taking a proper rest.

The little mink had already eaten all the beast soul crystals last time, so it was a good opportunity to replenish the stock.

"Tsk, little mink, you look so ugly. If you want to eat it, you can catch it in the wild yourself. The beast soul crystals produced by the death of the source beast are still fresh and hot." Muchen said contemptuously.

"There's already something ready, so why would anyone bother to do it?"

The little mink said, if you can get it for free, why bother to go through the trouble of hunting it yourself.

He is not a reckless person. In his current state, he will be eaten as a dessert by other source beasts if he is not careful. He cannot be arrogant now and must be more cautious.
