I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Xie Yuan suddenly understood after hearing this.

That was the original idea.

Xie Yuan was not puzzled as to how Xie Fu knew the secret of his Tianyin Technique. Since this was an expert who was similar to Xie Yi and very close to being a grandmaster, then he had used it once in the decisive battle with Xie Dun. Most people could not see it, but he must have seen some clues.

Although Xie Fu was not listed on the Flying Dragon List, it was because he had not left the Xie family arsenal for thirty years, not because he was not strong enough.

This is the limitation of the three lists. Many hidden masters will not be listed. The lists are mainly based on actual combat records. The rankings on the lists are very convincing, but they cannot include everyone.

Xie Yuan thought that Chunyu Tower or the royal family must have a more detailed list, but the current one was enough, so there was no need to publish it.

But Xie Fu's question...

Xie Yuan pondered for a moment and shook his head.

Xie Fu was suddenly disappointed and sighed.

Xie Yuan immediately explained:
"Elder, it's not that I don't want to share..."

In fact, when I think about it carefully, I am not really willing to do so, but of course there is no need to say it out loud, but there is really no other way.

"I came across these secret techniques, including the axe technique, by accident. I can use them myself, but I can't really describe them as methods, so I can't teach them to others."

Xie Yuan said "regrettably".

Xie Fu looked at him and felt that he was telling the truth, so he also showed a look of regret:
"I see. Many of these secret methods are indeed like this, that's all."

Xie Yuan probed:
"Elder, which of the eighth-level techniques you mentioned is suitable for me?"

Xie Fu glanced at him and said:
"Why, instead of contributing to the arsenal, you want to make a profit?"

Xie Yuan smiled awkwardly:
"Elder, this is not the case that the younger generation has the will but lacks the ability."

Xie Fu snorted and asked:

"Not strong enough? Then you don't have enough merit, and you still can't reach the eighth level. I can help you with the seventh level. Alas, it's not that the old man doesn't want to pass on the magic to you, but the family has rules here, and Xie Yi can't open this door for you. What a pity, what a pity, if you can memorize even one of the secret methods and keep it in the arsenal, I can make an exception for you!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Yuan couldn't help but feel a little regretful, because that was the method of a great grandmaster.

But he didn't talk about the Heavenly Hidden Art and the Heavenly Illusion Art. He had a feeling in his heart, but he knew the result but didn't know the reason. He could either do it or not. He could communicate with Mu Chaoyun who also understood it, but to really understand it, he had to rely on the realm of illusion and dream, so it was impossible to compile it into a book. Even if he wrote it down, he probably couldn't understand it without the Eight Diagrams Lotus and the Illusionary Dream Crystal.

As for the axe technique, he could teach people how to use the three-axe form, but the essence of it, the indescribable axe meaning, could only be understood by oneself. He estimated that others would not be able to master the principles without chopping wood for decades. If he could really teach it, he would definitely make a lot of money by exchanging the three-axe for the eighth level of Tongtian Gongfa.

Pity.

Xie Yuan could only shake his head and sigh:

"It is true that I only know its use but not its meaning. I am a young generation with limited skills and it is difficult to explain."

Seeing this, Xie Fu completely gave up and sighed.

As a martial arts elder who has spent his entire life in the Xie family armory, he is fascinated by all kinds of martial arts and regards filling the armory as his own responsibility.

Others said that he was in prison by staying in the armory, but he actually enjoyed it.

So when he saw that Xie Yuan possessed several magical skills, the first thing he wanted to do was to keep them in the armory.

However, as a noble family, the master has a great sense of generosity and will not use his power to force others. If Xie Yuan said he didn't want to, he would find a way to exchange; but since he couldn't, there was nothing he could do.

Xie Fu looked at Xie Yuan with some disdain, and said with a curled lip:
"Useless little fellow, what a shame! Forget it, have you ever practiced shooting?"

"marksmanship?"

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said:
“It has never been involved.”

"If you can't even practice with a gun, what's the point of thanking your family?"

The old man was a little angry. He waved his hand vigorously and snorted:
"follow me!"

After he said that, he put his hands behind his back and walked up first.

Seeing this, Xie Yuan was a little curious and expectant, and hurried to follow.

Can you visit the most legendary eighth floor of Xie's Armory?
What about the eighth floor where ten secret books are placed and top masters guard it closely?
Xie Yuan felt somewhat eager. Even if Xie Fu said that he could not give it to him, going up to take a look and admire it would be extremely satisfying for a martial arts enthusiast.

Go up to the eighth floor.

Xie Yuan looked around and found that this place was not very spacious. Although it was still wider than the top of an ordinary pagoda, there was a small house next to it for the Zhenwu Elder to live in, so there was not much other space.

Xie Yuan immediately noticed the only bookshelf next to him.

This bookshelf looks very ordinary, just like the bookshelves in the most common study rooms, but it has an antique feel and is probably very old.

There were a few booklets scattered on it.

One, two, three…nine, ten.

Exactly ten.

Xie Yuan was a little bit unbelievable, these are the ten secret books?

Just leave it here like this?
It feels a little... too undignified.

In Xie Yuan's opinion, this should be put away in a treasure box, placed in a specially made sealed cabinet, and then surrounded by many walls inside and outside, and then set up countless large formations and so on.

At least it should be much bigger than the one on the fifth floor.

Although Yao Tianchuan could carry a handwritten copy of the Great Golden River Kung Fu with him, firstly, the Great Golden River Kung Fu was special in the Yao family, and secondly, Yao Tianchuan had a special status. Other core members of the Yao family who were not masters did not have this treatment. As for the other top-level Kung Fu of the Yao family, as far as Xie Yuan knew, it would not leave the library and would only be passed down.

However, when Xie Yuan took a closer look, he discovered that the bookshelf itself seemed to be a treasure. The books that seemed to be exposed outside were actually protected by an invisible formation, and most ordinary people's hands could not reach in.

Xie Fu walked to the bookshelf and stretched out his hand, as if passing through a layer of invisible water waves, even the air was slightly rippled. Xie Yuan even saw that his hand was refracted when passing through the bookshelf, and it looked a little misplaced, as if it was a real water surface.

The old master withdrew his hand, holding a black booklet in it. Xie Yuan was shocked to find that there seemed to be no shortage of books on the bookshelf.

Is this some kind of illusion that even I can't reveal, or some other more magical method?

Xie Yuan knew that although the eighth level looked simple, it actually contained many mysterious methods, but he could not identify them all.

Don't doubt the wisdom of our ancestors.

Xie Fu walked back to Xie Yuan, handed the booklet to him, and said calmly:
"Take it and see how much you can understand."

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took the booklet that looked thin but a bit heavy, feeling that the paper was a bit peculiar.

He looked down and saw a few large gold-plated characters on the black cover:

"The Gun That Burns the Sky and Destroys the Dao".

In an instant, Xie Yuan felt his eyes were hazy, as if he saw a tall figure holding a spear in the boundless sea of ​​fire, pointing directly at Qingming.

Mountains stood by his side and a sea of ​​fire lay at his feet.

He is invincible in the world, and this is his last battle against the heavens.

A gun shadow that connected the nine heavens and the underworld and penetrated the entire world suddenly burst out, and a big hole was pierced in the infinitely high blue sky.

Then, a pair of extremely huge and indifferent eyes slowly opened from the big hole, looking down at the tall figure.

Just seeing those eyes, Xie Yuan suddenly woke up, trembling all over and sweating.

what is that?
He felt extremely empty, as if he had just fought in the eight levels and sixty-four divisions of the armory. His spirit, blood, and internal energy were all weak, and he couldn't even stand steadily.

Xie Yuan frowned, feeling that the pair of eyes looked somewhat familiar.

It seemed that in the illusion when I first comprehended the Black Book, I vaguely saw a similar scene behind the burning sky...

"...Xie Yuan, Xie Yuan?"

Xie Yuan came back to his senses and looked at Xie Fu who was looking at him carefully. Then he said tiredly:
"Elder, I was distracted."

Xie Fu looked at Xie Yuan's ugly, pale face and bloodless lips, and smiled excitedly:

"I can see that! Okay, okay, tell me what you saw?"

"I saw... I saw a peerless master holding a gun fighting against the sky in the boundless sea of ​​fire, and he poked a hole in the sky. Then... a pair of eyes appeared in the hole."

Thinking of those eyes, Xie Yuan's voice even paused instinctively, and then he said in a deep voice:

"Then I woke up."

Xie Fu's eyes showed a bit of disbelief, and then full of joy:
"You actually saw the last shot, 'Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao'!"

"The last shot? Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao?"

Xie Yuan repeated in a low voice.

This spear technique is called the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear.

Xie Fu laughed and said:

"Boy, this gun is for you to practice with!"

"what?"

Before Xie Yuan could react to what he saw, Xie Fu slapped Xie Yuan on the shoulders repeatedly, causing him to tremble all over:
"Back then, your father also saw this last shot during his first enlightenment, and then he became the youngest Grandmaster of the Xie family in the past three hundred years. You, boy, are his offspring!"

Xie Yuan felt that Xie Fu was a little overjoyed, and he completely lost control of his strength in his hands, which made him feel his blood boiling and his eyes dizzy.

He vaguely saw an extra line of words in front of him.

[Burning Heaven and Exterminating Dao Spear: (???/???)]

"WTF……"

Xie Yuan thought dizzily, I just read the title and I understood it?
Fortunately, Xie Fu discovered in time that Xie Yuan was already very weak, so he quickly withdrew his hand and stroked his back.

Afterwards, Xie Yuan felt an extremely pure internal energy coming over him, his body felt warm, and the feeling of weakness instantly dissipated a lot.

Seeing that Xie Yuan's internal energy began to circulate and generate energy again, Xie Fu withdrew his hand and glanced at Xie Yuan:
"Your Dajinhe Kungfu is quite powerful. You were able to practice it to this level just by staying at the Yao family for a few days. You are indeed a good boy."

But why is there still a Taoist aura? Xie Fu was puzzled for a moment, but he didn't investigate further.

It's a pity that Xie Yi of the Great Golden River Technique swore that it must not be passed on to others, otherwise there would be another technique added to the eighth level...

Xie Fu muttered to himself that if the Xie family was as shameless as the Yao family, they would definitely not be able to escape the Great Golden River Skill.

However, the top three surnames have always prided themselves on being a clean family, and this tradition has been passed down for thousands of years, so they would not arbitrarily change their own rules.

Moreover, Xie Yuan's Dajinhe Gong does not have the last few most critical and profound final chapters. Such fragments can only be placed on the seventh floor of the armory at most, which is not worthy of Xie family's self-humiliation.

Xie Yuan took a deep breath, and then asked with a slightly apprehensive mood:

"Elder, you just said that I can practice this spear technique?"

"Did I say that?"

Xie Fu said with a squint.

"Um...you just said I should practice this?"

Xie Yuan's voice gradually lowered. This should be what he meant, right?

Xie Fu smiled and said lazily:

"It just says you have the talent, it doesn't say you can practice it."

"……All right."

Xie Fu looked at him and sneered:
"Take it and practice it."

"what?"

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment again, and when he saw Xie Fu smiling, he suddenly became excited and secretly dissatisfied.

This old man must be bored staying in the armory, so he wants to make fun of others!
This Tongtian Spear Technique can be practiced by yourself!
Xie Fu looked at his joyful expression, a hint of emotion flashed in his eyes, and then he said slowly:
"But Xie Yuan, do you know the origin of this spear technique?"

Xie Yuan shook his head:
"Junior doesn't know."

Xie Fu nodded and said slowly:

“If you want to practice this spear, you must know its origin.

"Fourteen hundred years ago, our Xie family produced a great master who was invincible in the world, named Xie An.

"Xie An has shown top talent since he was young. No one of his age and realm can compare to him. Cross-border battles are as easy as eating and drinking. No famous genius can be his opponent.

"He became a Grandmaster at the fastest speed—much faster than your father. He was the most eye-catching among the Grandmasters. It took him several years to achieve the state of inner and outer unity. Except for those Grandmasters who have been dominating the world for a hundred years, no one can be his opponent. Even those Grandmasters who have dominated the world for a hundred years, some people wanted to kill him, but in the end they were helpless.

"He is not only a genius, but also an all-rounder - you are a bit like him. He is also a master of the Xie family's arsenal, and is proficient in all eight parts of the arsenal. He has also made great achievements in the art of celestial secrets. He is the only one in the family's history who is said to have read the entire arsenal.

"In addition to martial arts, he was proficient in everything from family development, training of children and disciples, leading troops in battles, and governing the country and people's livelihood. He was a prime minister at a young age. The emperor of the previous dynasty respected him and then immediately feared him. However, he rose too fast. Before the emperor thought he was just a young genius and could react, he was already invincible.

"Then the Western Regions invaded the Central Plains again, and the Zao Sect rose up with millions of followers, causing chaos throughout the country. The emperor at that time was incompetent, and the previous dynasty was already in its final years. Logically, our Xie family had a chance to replace it.

"However, Xie An's ancestor had a very broad vision, and his vision spanned thousands of years. He said that if you become a royal family, you will eventually decline after reaching the peak of prosperity, but only if you are the best in the world can you last as long as possible.

"So the ancestor led the army to defeat the Western Regions coalition, suppressed millions of rebels of the Kitchen God Sect, killed the then leader of the Kitchen God Sect, captured the Saint of the Kitchen God Sect as a maid, and finally became invincible. After that, he lived and gathered for ten years, stabilized the world, stabilized the dynasty, and let the people recuperate, and then established a new emperor. It was clearly the end of the dynasty, but there was a prosperous scene, and the country would continue for another three hundred years. As a result, the new emperor was about to abdicate, and he retired from the court after making those famous remarks, and then resigned from the position of clan leader, leading himself as the Zhenwu Grandmaster, and devoted himself to cultivating the children of the clan.

"After that, he lived in seclusion in the Xie family arsenal for ten years, and created the "Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear" with his life's efforts and combined with the Xie family's inherited spear techniques. To this day, the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear is the most powerful of the ten Tongtian Secret Books and the eighth level of the arsenal."

After Xie Yuan heard this, he was fascinated and sighed:
"The ancestor is truly a legend."

"More than just a legend?"

Xie Fu also sighed, but he changed the subject and his voice became a little deeper:

"But is there anyone perfect in this world? In the end, our ancestor didn't end up being perfect."

"Ok?"

Xie Yuan was a little surprised. With the talent, strength and reputation of this ancestor Xie Fu who dominated the world, how could it end badly?

Xie Fu looked at the stone house next to him and sighed:

“Perhaps it’s because heroes are often tempted by beauty… At that time, our ancestor subdued the Saint of the Kitchen Goddess as his maid, and no one in the tribe or even the world thought it was inappropriate. They just thought that he was both an invincible hero and a famous scholar.

“As a result, after Ancestor Xie An retired to the armory, he lived here with the saint girl for ten years… At that time, a few elders in the clan felt that it was inappropriate, but with the prestige of the ancestor, no one directly objected.

"Ten years later, the ancestor created the 'Heaven-Burning Spear', arranged his funeral, trained a successor, and informed the then clan leader and elders -

"He wants to destroy the sky."

"Fate?"

Xie Yuan was somewhat shaken.

Can the sky be defeated?

This ancestor is truly invincible and unwilling to be left out, so he wants to perform something unprecedented?
Xie Fu sighed:

"At that time, no one knew what was going on and tried to dissuade them. Only the saint girl supported them. So everyone later denounced the witch, believing that she had bewitched our ancestors.

“But the ancestor insisted on having his own way, and finally disappeared with the Saint Girl after the handover.

"Several years later, the ancestor himself returned and added the final move to the Burning Heaven and Exterminating Dao Spear, sublimating it into a complete and powerful Tongtian Kung Fu that surpassed all the previous ones, and passed away in the armory."

Xie Yuan didn't know what to say for a moment. He always felt that this ancestor's experience was quite legendary, and the final ending was also very dramatic.

Dying in battle against the sky sounds like a good way for a warrior to die, a tragic and heroic death worthy of its purpose.

However, in traditional concepts, martial arts to achieve spiritual enlightenment is also a path to the pursuit of truth. The ultimate goal is to comprehend the way of heaven and prove the truth with one's own body, rather than go against heaven. Therefore, the actions of this ancestor may seem a bit absurd to others. Destroying heaven? Fantastic idea.

Especially when there was a witch at work, most people felt that he was a hero all his life, but in the end he was bewitched by a mere woman and did such absurd and unruly things, like King You's mockery of the princes. Did he die just to make a beautiful woman smile?
"This is the origin of the 'Heaven-Burning and Dao-Exterminating Spear'."

Xie Fu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the magnificent buildings outside the tower:
“Those who practice this skill must know it.

"Because the most important taboo in practicing this skill is that you cannot practice the last shot."

"Shouldn't we repair the last shot? Burning the sky and destroying the way?"

Xie Yuan found it strange again.

I clearly heard from Xie Fu that the last move of this spear technique is the essence of the whole thing, and its name is the full name of the spear technique. Why are we not allowed to practice it?
Xie Fu nodded:
"That's right. Because this last shot is too powerful, Xiuzhi may be in danger."

"..."

Xie Yuan's eyes were somewhat shocked.

It's getting more and more mysterious.

However, thinking of those indifferent eyes in the dark, Xie Yuan shuddered, feeling that this statement might not be groundless.

Xie Fu sighed:

“Since you can directly sense the last shot, you must know that this spear technique was created by our ancestor Xie An to defeat the sky, as you can tell from its name.

"Before that, the Way of Heaven was vague and we never knew where it was. But after Xie An's ancestor conquered Heaven, we knew that Heaven had its Way."

Xie Fu said in a low voice:
"Perhaps the Heaven has remembered this spear, or perhaps the power of this spear is beyond what is expected of the human world. In short, the Heaven is unpredictable. Since the ancestor Xie An, every predecessor who has cultivated the last move of this spear technique, Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao, has died a miserable death in the end."

Xie Yuan frowned:

"Is it really such a coincidence?"

He looked at the booklet in his hand. Could it be a cursed martial arts book?
Xie Fu shook his head:
"It's not a coincidence... But you don't need to know too much now. You will know it naturally in the future.

"But as long as you don't practice the last move, there will be no other problems in practicing this spear technique. Even without the move of Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao, this spear technique is still extremely domineering and powerful. It is not an exaggeration to call it the best spear technique in the world." He smiled:

"If there is a last shot, it would be the Heavenly Gun Technique."

Xie Yuan nodded slowly, feeling somewhat eager as he held the technique.

Xie Fu looked at him and smiled:

"When you reach this level of spearmanship, it goes without saying that the inner and outer are united. When you practice this skill, your internal breath and blood will be nourished and tempered. Especially blood, no matter how advanced the training method is, it has always been able to produce blood and strengthen the body, but the effects vary. But this kind of magical skill, when you practice it, can help blood grow and refine its quality, so I say this skill can make up for your needs."

Xie Yuan held the book tightly and said with a smile:
"Elder, can I really practice cultivation? Didn't you just say..."

"Since you have a decent understanding, I will make an exception for you."

Xie Fu waved his hand.

Xie Yuan immediately understood that Xie Fu had just deceived him, and thought to himself that this old fox was cunning and greedy, and even if he didn't practice martial arts, he would be a profiteer.

"If you really can't produce anything, I can't stop you from practicing, so just keep it on credit for now. Remember this next time! Bring some good stuff back to the armory."

Xie Fu muttered to himself, and then said:
"But you can practice it, but it depends on whether you can do it. Although your understanding seems to be okay... you can try it first."

Xie Yuan immediately opened the booklet with an excited look on his face.

When I opened the first page, it was the preface to the technique. It looked like it was written by the author, with vigorous and powerful handwriting.

"I have practiced martial arts for half my life and have achieved a lot. I want to write a book to pass it on to future generations, but I am afraid that I will not be able to finish it in this lifetime."

Is this the preface written by the ancestor Xie An?

I sound a bit arrogant...but it's what I should do.

Xie Yuan continued reading:
"…But it was not until Lian Nuer woke me up that I realized that all I had gained in my life was vain; my fame was nothing but a joke."

Xie Yuan frowned slightly, and then saw four huge words that were so powerful that they almost made him squint:

“This day shall be cut down!
"So I created this skill, hoping to defeat the heavens. If I can triumph, I will open up a new world for this world; if I unfortunately fail, I hope that future generations of people in the world will practice this skill, defeat the heavens, and never give up!"

Then there are two lines of words with ink that are slightly different from the previous ones, and it seems that they were added later:
“If this spear is completed, future generations will be able to practice it and defeat the sky.

"I am lucky to have Lian Nu'er as my mentor and helpful friend in this life. I will not die in the fog and darkness. I have no regrets even though I die. I am so lucky, so lucky!"

Xie Yuan watched in silence, and probably understood why the descendants of the Xie family were somewhat vague about the later years of their ancestor Xie An.

There is no doubt that Lian Nuer is the Holy Maiden of the Kitchen God Cult. Just looking at the preface, she does seem like a person who has been fooled by love.

Xie Yuan pondered for a moment and did not delve into the past. Instead, he flipped through the preface and read the following techniques.

On the first page, Xie Yuan saw a figure holding a gun, standing proudly with the gun pointed at the ground, with an imposing manner, as if he was already invincible.

Xie Yuan's eyes blurred, and he felt that the figure on the paper seemed to move, concealing his spear skills; and in front of the figure there were countless master monks, Taoists, demons, holding swords, spears, sticks and magic weapons, but no one could match his spear skills.

As the figure moved, there seemed to be a faint green and red light flowing on his body. Each move marked a unique matching route, and when combined with the gun moves, the power was doubled.

Xie Yuan was fascinated as he watched the figure demonstrate the moves over and over again from beginning to end, and he memorized it all without blinking.

"wake up!"

Xie Yuan suddenly heard a clear shout and woke up with a start, feeling warm liquid flowing out of his nose.

When he touched it, he found that his hand was red and he was bleeding from his nose.

Xie Fu frowned in front of him and said seriously:

"If you want to practice Tong Tian Gong, it is extremely difficult and requires a lot of energy. Too much is as bad as too little. You should understand this principle since you have practiced Da Jin He Gong."

Xie Yuan then felt dizzy and his head pounding. He already felt empty just after seeing the cover, and now he felt like he was overdrawn. In addition to having a nosebleed, he probably looked very ugly.

He said nonchalantly:

"I got too obsessed with it accidentally."

He actually didn't know how difficult the Dajinhe Kung Fu was. After all, he took a shortcut, so it wasn't that difficult... But now it seems that taking shortcuts is not necessarily a good thing.

Xie Fu shook his head:
"It's getting dark, luckily I'm here to watch over you."

Xie Yuan looked outside and found that the sun had already set.

He hissed, wondering how it took the figure so long to practice the technique.

"Since it took you so long, how many moves did you learn? Don't tell me you only saw one or two moves? You should have at least three moves, haha."

Xie Fu said with a sidelong glance, his tone somewhat expectant.

With such a great talent, he should be able to gain something from the first viewing. If he can see three moves right from the start, then let him keep practicing this!

[Heaven-Burning Spear, Peace on Earth, Uninitiated: (1/1000)]

Xie Yuan looked at the panel in front of him and said hesitantly:
"The first one?"

This technique has no written words, only images that contain the true meaning. How much you can comprehend depends entirely on your opportunity and understanding.

The first page should be the first style, called Peace on Earth.

He looked at it for a day and the panel had shown some results, so he started to get the hang of it.

Xie Fu rolled his eyes:
"I know you are looking at the first move. You have been holding the first page without moving. The first move has several moves. I want to ask how many moves you have seen?"

Xie Yuan pondered for a moment, and counted the figures using seven moves back and forth, and then kept repeating them. He basically understood everything, and said:
"Seven moves."

"How many?!"

"...Seven moves? Elder, how many moves are there in the first move?"

Xie Yuan asked tentatively.

Such a peerless spear technique must have dozens of moves, right?
Only seeing seven moves, is that a very poor result?

Xie Fu stared at Xie Yuan without blinking, and spoke in a somewhat unfriendly tone:

"Boy, are you trying to make fun of me?"

"The juniors' level is low, and they can only see seven moves."

Xie Yuan said honestly, and hurriedly explained:
"Maybe I'm not in good shape today. I'll take a rest before trying again."

Xie Fu's eyelids twitched, and he jumped up and said:
"You can only see seven moves! The first move has seven moves in total. How can you understand them all in just half a day? Young man, don't take advantage of my old age and stupidity. I will slap you in the face if you are dishonest, believe it or not!"

Xie Yuan opened his mouth:

"Only seven moves?"

"What do you mean by only seven moves? One style has seven moves, a total of seven styles with forty-nine moves, plus the last move of Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao, this spear has a total of fifty moves, fifty moves of peerless spear techniques, how many more do you want? You kid, you are not honest, how many have you seen?"

Xie Fu blew his beard and glared, feeling that Xie Yuan's words were a bit ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

Xie Yuan bared his teeth and said:
"Elder, I really watched seven moves..."

"You're still lying!"

"But if I hadn't seen it, how would I have known that there were exactly seven moves..."

"...?"

Xie Fu, who was jumping up and down, suddenly froze. After thinking about it, it seemed to be the truth.

He immediately glared at Xie Yuan again:

"What if you are just making it up?"

Xie Yuan said helplessly:
"Elder, what's the point of me talking nonsense? Wouldn't it be clear if I just try? But my body is empty now, so I can't demonstrate it. When I recover, maybe I can demonstrate it. Well, it will probably be a little crooked."

"Can you still demonstrate?"

Xie Fu raised his voice again, incredulously.

Xie Yuan hesitated and said:
"Is it okay? Now that I can see it clearly, at least it has a similar shape."

Xie Fu stared at him, up and down, and looked him up and down for a long time before he said faintly:

"How did the Xie family leave your treasure outside? Fortunately, Xie Yi picked it up for you!

"Do you know how many moves your father made the first time he saw one?"

"How many moves?"

Xie Yuan asked curiously.

"Five moves! And they are just for demonstration. They are not allowed to be practiced or demonstrated yet. Just this alone has made the whole family ecstatic."

Xie Fu hissed:
"Come back and show me a few things after you've recovered in a few days. Now go back and have a good rest! If you can really comprehend the complete first move in one day, I think you are the reincarnation of Xie An's ancestor!"

Xie Fu walked around the eighth floor excitedly, which made Xie Yuan a little nervous.

Could it be that there is some difficulty in this shooting technique and it is not that simple?
Of course, he can only use the peerless divine spear with difficulty now, and it looks similar but it is difficult to exert its full power.

But since the panel has already recorded it, and I already have all seven moves of the first style in my mind, it should be no problem to follow suit... Let's see in a couple of days.

Xie Fu stopped and patted Xie Yuan with his hand:

"Go back and have a rest first! You are my precious child now, and I dare not let you suffer. After all these years, you are the second person who has the charm of our ancestor Xie An..."

Xie Yuan was about to leave, but he became curious after hearing this:

"Elder, who is the first one?"

Xie Fu paused for a moment, shook his head and said:
"The first one is not ours, it's someone else's..."

He said in a leisurely tone:

"It was Xue Minghe, the King of Pingxi back then."

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect this to be the answer.

Xie Fu glanced at him and sighed slightly:

"I don't know what other families think, but when our Xie family decided not to let the current emperor have the world's best sword, it was because we felt that he was too similar to our ancestor Xie An recorded in history. If it weren't for the fact that the King of Pingxi grew up among the common people when he was young, he might have been invincible long ago.

"The current emperor is extremely ambitious. If there really is such an invincible sword, it would probably be a catastrophe for our family, or even the end of the world."

Xie Yuan fell silent and shook his head.

Xie Fu said:
"These are all old stories. Go back and rest. If you can really practice a few moves of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear at this level, it will not be a problem to sublimate the quality of your blood. When the time comes, you can practice and search at the same time. If it really doesn't work, ask your second uncle to go to the Prajna Temple to ask for a method. There will always be a Buddhist classic suitable for you.

"Of course, if you want to rebuild directly, it will be even easier. The arsenal has the most suitable supporting fundamental method for the Burning Heaven Exterminating Dao Spear. By then, even if you are delayed for two years, it will not be a big deal for you... Think about it yourself, this may be better."

Xie Yuan responded:

"Yes, I will think about it carefully."

"Go back and rest."

Xie Fu waved his hand:

"Although the consumption is huge, giving you three days to recover should be enough? Then come and let me see your understanding. It's okay, don't feel pressured. Even if you fail this time, you can always go to the eighth floor to comprehend it in the future. I will guide you in practicing this spear technique."

Xie Yuan bowed respectfully:
"Yes, elder."

He was about to return the book in his hand, but was suddenly stunned to find that his hand was empty without him knowing when.

Xie Fu explained briefly:

"That's just a phantom of a copy, enough for you to comprehend once."

Xie Yuan suddenly realized something, took a look at the magical bookshelf, then said goodbye and left.

As he was walking down the stairs, he was thinking happily:

“Originally I just wanted to learn an external training method, and I never expected that the eighth level would be open to me right now. The result was an unexpected surprise.

"Although the Burning Heaven Destroying Dao Spear is not a special method for external training, as Elder Zhenwu said, practicing such a method has the effect of tempering and improving blood and qi. Combined with the Golden Bell Cover, it is equivalent to upgrading it.

"But for the long term, it is better to change to a better external training method as soon as possible. But there is no need to be so anxious now. The quality of blood energy can be improved by one or even several levels with the help of spear skills, which is enough before the master level - but it will be more difficult to switch to cultivation at that time. Well, I will aim at the Buddhist skills of the Golden Bell Cover series. I have all kinds of fighting and killing methods, so I need excellent defense to protect myself. I don’t know what the Buddhist rhythm can bring me..."

Xie Yuan went down to the first floor and was escorted out of the tower by the guards. The stars and the moon were already high in the sky outside.

A graceful shadow walked out in the moonlight, and it seemed as if two tails had grown behind the shadow, swaying back and forth.

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment and said in surprise:
"Lingyun, have you been waiting here for a whole day?"

"Look at the exercises, eat something, and it will pass quickly."

Xie Lingyun stroked her cheek with a slender finger and turned her head to say:

"I didn't expect you to be here for so long. What should I do if I'm worried something might happen to you?"

Xie Yuan sighed:

"What could possibly happen to me here?"

"Don't you look like you'll fall down at the slightest gust of wind?"

Xie Lingyun smiled, took two steps forward, took his arm and supported him:
"Let's go, I'll take you back."

Xie Yuan was supported by Xie Lingyun and walked back slowly. The moonlight shone on the two of them, and their shadows seemed to be snuggling together.

After walking for a while, Xie Yuan hesitated to speak, and said in a low voice:

"Lingyun, you know it's impossible for us to be together, right?"

Xie Yuan is not a fool. Even if he is, he can see that Xie Lingyun's feelings for him are a little beyond the limit.

He originally thought that the young lady in Wangjiang Tower was just joking, or was just acting on impulse. Either way, it was no big deal and would fade away after a while.

Especially since they ended up having such a close relationship, Xie Lingyun probably didn't have a very deep relationship with him, and after a while she would forget this awkward experience.

But he didn't expect that this little girl was still so stubborn and it seemed like no one could pull her back.

When Xie Lingyun heard him say this, her body trembled suddenly, and she lowered her head and said:

"What are you talking about? We are brother and sister, of course it's impossible."

"It's good that you know, so let's do this..."

Xie Yuan couldn't bear it, but he felt he had to make things clear as soon as possible.

Xie Lingyun interrupted him directly:
"Why do you think we are not like brother and sister?"

"Forehead……"

Xie Yuan really couldn't refute it for the moment. Although at their age, brothers and sisters of this age group disliked each other, there were also some who had a close relationship. At least on the surface, they still had a normal brother and sister relationship.

We just got closer, it doesn't seem like we just met.

Before Xie Yuan could say the key point, Xie Lingyun looked up at him and said to herself:

"I know it's impossible for us to be together. Although I may be willful and stubborn at times, I have learned from my parents and I know etiquette. Even if you want to go beyond the rules, I won't agree. That would bring shame to my parents and family.

"So, I am just your brother and sister, and I am just following you. You are a real man, and even if you travel to the ends of the earth, it's okay to bring a sister with you, right? Just let me follow you, okay?"

Xie Lingyun looked at him, her beautiful little face reflected in the pure white moonlight, looking pale.

Xie Yuan looked at the always delicate and strong-willed young lady, whose eyes could not help but reveal a bit of pleading. He felt a pain in his heart and said immediately:
"Okay, I'll do as you say. You are my sister, Xie Yuan, and you can go anywhere!"

Xie Lingyun immediately showed a sweet smile:

"That's best."

She instantly seemed to be fine, holding Xie Yuan's arm, resting her head lightly on his arm, and asked:

"Hey, where did you get to today? Why did you take so long to come down? You couldn't have gone to the eighth floor, did you?"

"Yes, Elder Zhenwu begged me to practice the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear. I can't leave without practicing."

"Humph, bragging again..."

Xie Lingyun nudged him hard with her elbow, but somehow she didn't want to ask any more questions.

She leaned on Xie Yuan's shoulder, looked up at the moon, and sighed silently.

Three days passed before Xie Yuan completely recovered from the energy he had consumed that day on the eighth floor of the Xie family armory.

Just reading the cover and the first page of the Burning Heaven and Exterminating Dao Spear consumed much more energy than climbing the stairs before. This shows the difficulty of the top-level skills.

As agreed, Xie Yuan immediately came to the eighth floor of the armory, ready to demonstrate the first move of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, Peace on Earth, to Xie Fu. He himself also wanted to know what this spear technique looked like when used.

He had just reached the top of the armory and looked at the eighth floor which seemed a bit crowded. A dozen huge auras were stirring up each other, even making the air a little distorted. Xie Yuan fell silent.

The masters, be they old, strong or graceful, were like idle people watching the excitement in a vegetable market, and the top of the Xie family armory, where ten volumes of all-powerful skills were stored, was that vegetable market.

As for Xie Yuan, who was performing on stage, he just walked up and stood in the center of the stage.
