I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Seeing so many masters and elders gathered together, Xie Yuan's first reaction was that he had been discovered while pretending to be someone else and secretly learning the magic skills, and now he had to be tried by three judges?

But then he remembered that he was no longer secretly pretending to be someone else. It was a rare opportunity to restore his original identity, even a hidden identity that he didn't even know about. It couldn't be more real.

Elder Xie Yi and Elder Zhenwu took the lead and stood in front; many of the elders next to them were also big names that they were familiar with after returning to the Xie family. Even if they had not seen them, they had seen them in picture albums to avoid any conflict.

There was also the old man with white eyebrows and kind eyes. Xie Yuan remembered that he was the person who sat in the most important seat during the previous competition and Xie Yi always showed respect to him.

I heard that this elder was of the same generation as Xie Yi's great-grandfather. He went out to study and seek the truth when he was young, and later returned to the family. He is a top master of Taoist techniques in the clan and also the person with the longest seniority. He is probably over 150 years old.

Many masters... are on this eighth floor, and there are not enough books for each person.

Xie Yuan said secretly.

Although the Xie family was strong and had many grandmasters, there were not dozens of them. Apart from the elders stationed in the secret places of the various branch industries, if we counted the dozen grandmasters left behind in the family, they would probably all have arrived today.

Will this leave the clan defense empty? If an enemy takes advantage of the opportunity to sneak in, wouldn't I become a sinner... If the clan's territory is destroyed because of watching my children show off their guns, the Xie family will also be remembered for eternity.

Xie Yuan was a little distracted, and then he saw the great-great-grandfather said kindly:
"Xie Yuan, don't be nervous. We are just some old guys with nothing to do, so we came here for a stroll."

Xie Yuan responded with a respectful salute, thinking that there were quite a few young and strong elders holding important positions here, not all of them were retired old men and women.

Xie Yuan knew exactly why they came. It must have been Elder Zhenwu who spread the news. All the big shots of the Xie family rushed to see it.

It seems that what Elder Zhenwu said that day was true at all. It turns out that his "talent" can really cause a sensation among the tribe members.

Xie Fu waved his hand and said:
"Xie Yuan, have you recovered?"

"Replying to the elder, I have rested well."

Xie Fu nodded heavily:

"Okay! Then demonstrate the first move of the Burning Heaven and Exterminating Dao Spear."

All the masters and elders dispersed. The eighth floor was not wide, so the elders had to stick close to the stone walls and bookshelves, trying their best to make room for Xie Yuan.

These people are usually the top figures in the Xie family. When they go out, they have a lot of servants and juniors serving them, and they also have their own style. But at this moment, they are squeezed together with shoulders and legs touching, looking a little embarrassed.

"Xie Ling, don't get close to me!"

"It's just such a small place, what's wrong with touching it, you are so stingy!"

"Xie Han, there's no place for you. Go down and take a look. Anyway, with your level of cultivation, you can see everything, right?"

"Haha, if you really see this, why don't you go home? Why do you have to come here to grab territory?"

"Xie Peng, you stepped on my foot."

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

"Xie Yi, you too."

“…I’ll get out of the way right now.”

The masters present here either grew up playing together or were brought up by others. At this moment, they were whispering and talking to each other, and the atmosphere was quite lively.

Xie Yuan stood in the middle of the field, bearing more than a dozen powerful gazes, feeling the turbulent aura around him. The wind blew in the quiet room, just like being at the wind outlet of a high mountain. The pressure suddenly increased and his chest felt stuffy.

Even if he had to endure thousands of stares at various conferences before, it was not as stressful as these masters crammed into a small room...

Xie Fu saw Xie Yuan frowning slightly, and waved his hand gently. The wind on the eighth floor suddenly stopped. Xie Yuan instantly felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

He took out a spear that Xie Fu had prepared from the weapon rack beside him, held it in his hand and saluted in all directions:
"Dear elders, I am sorry to show my embarrassment."

Everyone nodded calmly and was very kind to this young man with a strange background and extraordinary talent.

Xie Yuan held the spear and weighed it calmly for a few seconds. This was actually the first time he picked up this kind of weapon and was going to use the strongest and most difficult spear technique in the world.

Gun is the king of weapons.

As the saying goes, "A month of stick, a year of sword, a lifetime of spear", it can be seen that the spear is so powerful and difficult to use that it is worth immersing yourself in it for a lifetime.

Although in the age of martial arts where internal and external shackles have been broken, martial artists have become connected to the world, and masters have emerged in large numbers, the advantage of long weapons is no longer an absolute factor, and even true masters can destroy mountains and rivers with their bare hands, the combat power of martial artists with guns will still make opponents of the same level much more cautious.

Xie Yuan stroked the heavy gun body, holding one end in the middle with both hands, and standing still with his feet, just like the figure on the first page of "The Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Gun" when it was still.

The masters around suddenly fell silent.

As the master of Chenjun Xie's family, even if he had not practiced this spear technique, he had at least seen it.

There is no doubt that Xie Yuan used the first move of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, the starting move for peace on earth.

A slightly immature, but already well-established, domineering and invincible aura naturally emanated from Xie Yuan.

What is peace on earth?

If there were no enemies in the world, there would naturally be peace.

The first move of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear is called Taiping, but the move is not peaceful at all.

In the repetitive demonstration figures that Xie Yuan saw, every time he shot, the target was the world's top masters, sword kings, sword masters, esoteric sect leaders, relic demons, and hidden masters.

The seven spear techniques, domineering and unstoppable, form a complete move, bringing peace to the world.

Xie Yuan's body suddenly moved, and a group of gun shadows suddenly danced out.

Although it was his first time holding a gun, his slight understanding of the first move of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear was enough for him to master the art of gun.

The touch in Xie Yuan's hands was unfamiliar but not awkward. He wielded the spear steadily and stabbed hundreds of times in front of him in an instant.

An ancient book says, "The whole body is like dancing pear blossoms; the whole body is like falling snow."

The gun shadow in front of Xie Yuan at this moment was like a sudden burst of cold light, covering his entire body, so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it, just like this scene.

Xie Yi, Xie Fu, and the other elders all had bright eyes, and some murmured excitedly:

"The first move! It's been used."

"He can really use this gun! He not only understands it."

"Elder Fu, did he really only comprehend it once?"

"Why did I lie to you?"

Xie Fu hummed, his eyes also full of joy.

This is the first move, and everything he said is clear.

And look down...

Xie Yuan only used the first move and he could already feel the unparalleled dominance of this spear technique.

In the blink of an eye, he stabbed hundreds of times. If it weren't for his limited realm, each shot carried its own internal energy, which would have been enough to make holes in the body of any enemy.

But even so, this was only the first move, but it was also extremely powerful, as fast as the wind and as swift as thunder, with an endless speed and astonishing killing power, which surprised Xie Yuan himself.

Immediately, his expression leaped with joy, the force of his spear changed, he suddenly raised it from low to high, and then stabbed it fiercely, a strong wind surged in the area several feet in front of him, the force of the spear was surging, it became a desperate situation.

A strong wind suddenly blew on the eighth floor of the armory, but the masters around were like magic needles that stabilized the sea, and the strong wind only swirled in the open space in the middle.

However, the masters had either long fluttering beards and eyebrows or fluttering sleeves and skirts, and their expressions were all quite surprised.

"The second move..."

Someone murmured:
"Better than his father."

"the student surpasses the master."

While the masters were whispering to each other in amazement, Xie Yuan turned the tip of his spear again, and the spear stabbed from left to right like a mad dragon, as if there were many enemies in front of him, but in an instant they were all cleared out, and there was no one blocking his way.

"Three moves, three moves already!"

Xie Fu opened his eyes wide and smiled:
"If he comprehends it once, he can perform three moves. This spear technique is what he should practice! I will definitely teach him well, and he will not be allowed to go out without practicing!"

All the masters nodded slightly. None of them had such ability after understanding it for the first time... being able to understand it was victory.

Although Xie Yuan's spear skills were still very immature in their eyes and could only be considered a demonstration, and were still far from being able to exert their power in actual combat, as long as they thought about his performance just after he started, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had a promising future.

Moreover, the first three moves were so smooth, could he really demonstrate the first move completely?

Everyone is looking forward to it.

Xie Yuan, on his part, had gradually become proficient in the technique. Although he felt that the energy consumption of this spear technique was astonishingly high, the feeling of being invincible after using it also made him intoxicated.

His eyes lit up as he estimated his own physical strength. Waves of the Great Golden River Power surged out and poured into the spear in his hand as if it were free.

The fourth move, the room burst into dazzling light, and it seemed that there was a faint dragon roar, and a hidden dragon emerged from the abyss;
The fifth move, Xie Yuan took a step forward with his spear and struck three times in a row. If it weren't for the Xie family arsenal formation blocking him, he would have cleared a thirty-foot space in front of him.
The sixth move: Xie Yuan moved around and leaped high into the air. His spear was like a flying dragon in the sky, looking down from above. The ground was centered on the spear tip, and the area several feet in radius was filled with a cold light.

The seventh move was to hold the spear still for a moment, then suddenly release and retract it. It was a simple stab that made the air seem to stop for a moment.

Then the formation on the eighth floor of the armory was suddenly activated. The surrounding light was brilliant, and there were formation stripes everywhere. The ceiling, stone walls, floor, bookshelves, and stone houses were all covered with dense golden lights, like an ancient secret realm.

Xie Fu waved his hands several times before the lines gradually subsided, but there was still a faint palpitating feeling in the air.

Xie Yuan stood quietly with a gun in hand, looking at the silence around him, wondering if he had gotten into trouble.

Judging from the situation just now, it feels like the Xie family arsenal is going to wipe out all the top leaders of the Xie family... That would be a legendary story for the ages.

However, so many formations were actually superimposed on each other. With Xie Yuan's knowledge of formations, it was simply unheard of.

If Miss Mu saw this, she would probably be as surprised as a rat entering a rice jar, and would probably be willing to serve as the martial arts master for the Xie family.

Xie Yuan let out a long sigh, and his body felt empty again.

However, his blood was rushing at this moment, and although his physical strength was weak, his heart was surging.

The world is peaceful and refreshing!
Xie Yuan vaguely felt that the quality of his blood and energy had improved slightly as he performed this spear technique from beginning to end, and he couldn't help but feel very excited.

If there was a breakthrough in the realm of blood and energy, he wouldn't be so happy;
However, the improvement in quality can only occur during the transformation when a great realm is broken through. It is not unexpected, but is just a matter of following the routine of the practice.

If one wants to improve the quality of blood, apart from extremely rare natural treasures, the only option is to use the unique skills themselves.

It is impossible to condense a higher-level martial art like the Golden Bell Cover that has special blood and energy, even if it is a conventional martial art.

But at this moment, his blood and energy, which was filled with Buddhist charm, seemed to have made a slight improvement under the domineering spear intent of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear - so slight but still detectable by Xie Yuan's keen perception.

This strand of blood energy, thinner than a hair, is slightly more condensed than the surrounding blood energy, and has a little more domineering and murderous aura than the peaceful Buddhist aura.

It is an imperceptible progress, a tiny improvement, but it is the first step in advancing blood and energy from zero to something.

This was only the first time he performed it. Xie Yuan could imagine that after he had mastered this first move and gradually tempered it many times, the blood and energy in his body would become so condensed and domineering, and the power he used would be taken to a higher level!
Xie Yuan was delighted that his fundamental skills had finally improved.

However, he remained expressionless because the air around them was too quiet. The masters and elders were all silent and it would be inappropriate for a junior like him to act rashly.

The masters around were like clay or stone statues on the throne, motionless, solemn in expression, with different auras, and equally quiet.

In the end, Xie Fuxian sighed:

"Now if you say that you are the reincarnation of Xie An's ancestor, I'm afraid we will have to believe it."

The atmosphere, as if time and space had stood still, suddenly became lively.

The younger masters all sighed with excitement:
"Wow! The chieftain has dug up treasures from the mountains!"

"Wow, a 1,400-year-old reincarnated old mountain ginseng!"

"Xie Ling, what nonsense are you talking about! This is so disrespectful. How can you make fun of our ancestors?"

"hey-hey."

The old men stroked their long beards, their expressions showing great satisfaction amidst their surprise, and said with emotion:

"Thank the ancestors, my Xie family has given birth to another Qilin child!"

"This is no longer a Qilin child, this is already a latent dragon emerging from the abyss, once it encounters the spring breeze, it will turn into a dragon!"

Xie Yi, on the other hand, was filled with emotion and gently patted Xie Yuan's shoulder. For a moment, he even didn't know what to say.

He thought for a moment, exhaled, and said:
"Xie Yuan, when we get back, I'll give you the spear that my elder brother left behind."

The masters around were all silent upon hearing this, and one hesitated and said:
"Master, if you give that gun to Xie Yuan now, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive."

"It's okay. I will seal the power on it. When Xie Yuan's strength gradually increases, I will be able to slowly unlock it until I can fully master it."

Xie Yi explained.

After hearing this, everyone nodded.

He turned to Xie Yuan again:

"Although the weapon used by my elder brother was not a clan magic weapon, it was not too far off, somewhere between a mysterious weapon and a magic weapon. With your current strength, it is naturally difficult for you to master a mysterious weapon, so I will make some arrangements. You should get familiar with it first, so that it can become your life weapon in the future, or even be upgraded to a magic weapon. I hope that one day, you can carry this spear and recreate the style of my elder brother and ancestor Xie An."

Seeing the hopeful eyes around him, Xie Yuan bowed solemnly:

"Second uncle, fellow elders, Xie Yuan will definitely live up to your trust."

Everyone smiled and became more satisfied with him.

Xie Fu then instructed:

"Your realm is too low, you just performed one move and now you are exhausted again!"

Xie Yuan smiled bitterly. It was not easy for him, who was at the third level of Qi and Blood Transformation, to demonstrate the complete move of such a peerless divine spear. Xie Fu's request was a bit too high.

Moreover, it was his first time to use it, so although it was crooked, it was complete. It was just like a person who had just learned to swim, who had clearly used up all his strength in the water, but when he looked up, he was only three feet away from the shore.

As you gradually become familiar with it and get started, you will save a lot of unnecessary effort and your efficiency will become higher and higher.

Practice makes perfect, even for magical skills.

Especially for Xie Yuan.

[Heaven-Burning Spear, Peace on Earth, Uninitiated: (2/1000)]

It increased a little... As expected, top-level martial arts are not easy to get started with. This time, there were no health-preserving exercises to help him cheat.

But at this rate, taking into account the guidance of top masters and the supply of resources from the Xie family, the progress will be faster and faster as you become proficient.

You can make at least some progress each time. If you do it three, five or even ten times a day, it probably won't take long.

Xie Fu didn't know Xie Yuan's strength, so he calculated with his fingers and felt a little dissatisfied:

"Although it is usually better to start practicing with a Grandmaster, since you are able to practice now, you should practice! But judging from your progress, it will take you one or two years to master even the first move, not to mention the following moves!"

"You only need to practice two moves at most before you become a master, and you will get more and more comfortable with it as you become more proficient. There is no rush."

Xie Yi reminded.

Xie Fu shook his head:
"You should start practicing as early as possible! Then, you can give him all the good things and treasures, and don't bother him with trivial matters. Let him come here to practice every day. The practice is not easy in the first place, so he should be distracted and regress.

"If it affects the income of other disciples, I will pay for it. It's useless for me to keep it anyway."

Xie Yi responded and said with a smile:

"We have already given him the best rations. Do you still need your own money?"

"It doesn't matter who comes out, it's all for the good of the Xie family!"

Seeing that Xie Yi had already made arrangements, Xie Fu did not bother to investigate further and patted Xie Yuan:

"Go back and rest. After you're done, come practice shooting!"

Xie Yuan bowed respectfully to those around him, and all the masters responded with smiles.

After Xie Yuan left, the masters of the eighth floor began to sigh again. One of them sighed:

"The head of the family has good vision. I thought he allowed Xuan to stay under his protection, but I didn't expect that he had found the seedling of a towering tree. Naturally, he must be nurtured well."

"That's right! It seems that it is a waste to give resources to my useless grandson. If Xie Yuan needs it, just give it to him!"

Xie Yi smiled slightly:
"Since Elder Zhenwu is going to use his private treasury, why should other disciples sacrifice themselves? Although Xie Yuan is excellent, we cannot delay other children. As I said before, the family has made some money recently, and we will not treat the young people unfairly."

Although the other masters said nice things, they were not polite at all when they gave their opinions. They only said half-truthful and nice things when everyone was happy, but if they really took the things of their juniors, they would be very angry.

However, as the clan leader, Xie Yi takes the overall situation into consideration and is familiar with people's hearts, so he naturally wants to unite the clan members, value harmony, and see the truth without speaking it out.

Everyone sighed and praised for a while, thinking that as long as Xie Yuan didn't die young, the next generation of the clan would have great hope. With such a genius, it would be no problem for the Xie family to prosper for a hundred years, and all the elders were happy.

Xie Yuan returned to his own courtyard and soaked in a pool of special medicinal liquid. His physical fatigue was quickly relieved.

He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling completely pampered.

Speaking of which, the medicinal liquid used for daily bathing has excellent effects and is not an ordinary thing. In terms of the price of the materials, it is more expensive than the medicinal bath that I saved money for back then. Well, I don't know how much more expensive it is. This pool is probably enough for me to soak in that medicinal liquid for a lifetime.

If you were in Panlong Town, you couldn't even imagine the existence of such a thing. The world is really full of discrepancies.

After bathing, the water droplets on the body will be evaporated away with the internal energy.

Xie Yuan put on his pants first, and called Yunzhu in to help him get dressed. After all, these clothes were not simple, and it was too troublesome to put them on by himself. He gradually went from being frugal to being extravagant, and got used to having Yunzhu and Shijian serve him.

Steam was rising, and looking at the pretty maid blushing in front of him, Xie Yuan silently said that although he was corrupt, he must strictly stick to his original intention.

Yunzhu glanced at Xie Yuan and said softly:
"Master, your skin is so good, even better than Yunzhu's."

"If you practice martial arts like Shi Jian, your physical condition will be better."

Xie Yuan returned.

"Well, I'm not that hardworking, and I don't have that talent."

Xie Yuan glanced at her, thinking that maybe he could find a health-preserving technique to teach her that didn't require so much qualification, which the Xie family arsenal would surely have.

Yunzhu smiled and said:

"Master, get dressed! Even in the family, you are the best."

Shi Jian rushed in at this time, and when he saw Xie Yuan, he blinked and twitched his nose:
"Master, you smell so good."

Xie Yuan's mouth twitched and he said:
"The water in this pond is like this. If you like it, take some medicinal powder and soak in it. It will be good for your martial arts practice."

Shi Jian hesitated:

"Master, this is beyond the rules..."

Seeing that she wanted it but didn't dare to accept it, Xie Yuan smiled and said:
"In this courtyard, whatever rules I say are the rules - just don't tell anyone else."

Since I am enjoying the meticulous service and care of two pretty maids, I cannot treat them badly.

Shi Jian's pretty but somewhat dull face showed a hint of happiness, and then he said seriously:

"Master, the master is here to see you. He is waiting in the hall and has brought something with him."

Second uncle is here?

Xie Yuan realized in an instant what Xie Yi brought, and immediately rushed over excitedly.

Walking into the hall, he saw Xie Yi sitting in a seat drinking tea. Next to the chair was an exquisite and slender dark wooden box. Xie Yuan walked up to him and bowed:
"Uncle, you are here in person."

Seeing that Xie Yuan was well-groomed and looked very handsome, Xie Yi nodded slightly and thought to himself that judging from the appearance, he must be the Jade Unicorn of the Xie family of Chen County.

Then he stroked the dark brown wood-grained long box beside him and sighed:

“This is the personal weapon that my eldest brother left behind. I have kept it till today and treasure it well.

"Xie Yuan, take it and see if it's convenient for you."

Xie Yuan took the wooden box with some anticipation, opened the lock, and the delicate mechanism pushed the lid back.

A cold light lit up from the end of the wooden box, causing Xie Yuan to squint his eyes involuntarily. He felt the chill coming towards him, and the temperature seemed to have dropped a few degrees.

Inside the wooden box was a spear about ten feet long. The spear was pure dark blue with faint inscriptions. The end was polished to prevent slipping. Both the color and shape were beautiful, and it looked extraordinary.

The tip of the gun was extremely sharp, with the silver edge constantly shining coldly under the sunlight outside, and the sharpness was so sharp that people could hardly look directly at it.

The spear's shape was classic and plain, but every detail seemed to be polished by a weapon master, and the lines were natural and flawless. Xie Yuan held it in his hand, the spear head held high, proud and arrogant, as if there was a spirit of victory inside, and it looked very imposing.

Xie Yi said slowly:
"This spear is a top-level mysterious weapon that my eldest brother hired the best craftsman to carefully craft. The spear body is made of a dragon skeleton found in the ruins, and there are still some dragon spirits inside. The spear head is made of meteorite iron from outer space, which is indestructible and extremely cold. The spear is called 'Jiaohun'. In addition to being sharp, strong, and having armor-breaking power beyond ordinary objects, it can also have the properties of ice when it is activated, limiting the enemy's movement; if it goes a step further, it can also emit a dragon phantom, devouring the enemy's blood and shocking their minds. This is what a real spear like a dragon looks like.

“However, you cannot control the special power of the Xuanbing now. I have set up a triple ban on it. Now it is just an extremely sharp and strong armor-piercing weapon - of course, this is already much better than an ordinary weapon.

"As for the ban, the first level should be unlocked when you reach the late stage of the Third Transformation Realm. At that time, in addition to its own power, its sharp coldness and armor-piercing properties will be even higher, far beyond the ordinary. The second level can be unlocked when you reach the Grandmaster Realm, and the dragon soul can emit the icy attributes of the dragon bone, which is considered a true mysterious weapon. The third level requires you to become a master among the Grandmasters and pass through the double bridges of heaven and earth, only then can you fully control this mysterious weapon."

Xie Yuan held the heavy "Dragon Soul" in his hand, feeling its cool touch, and was somewhat amazed.

It turns out that this gun was made from a legendary creature?
No wonder it's so strange and so powerful.

Although he had not yet seen its power, Xie Yuan was already yearning for it just by hearing the description.

I really hope to restore the full power of this mysterious weapon as soon as possible.

Xie Yi said in a deep voice:
"Xie Yuan, I will pass this Xuanbing to you now. I hope you can use it well. I believe you will not let it down and will definitely make its reputation spread far and wide."

Xie Yuan said solemnly:
"Uncle, I will use it well and never let the Xuanbing be covered in dust."

Xie Yi then smiled:

"Xuanbing is a gift to heroes. This gun suits you very well."

This gun was made by a master. Its simple shape is flawless. It is both good-looking and practical. It matches the handsome, tall and well-proportioned Xie Yuan very well.

Xie Yi sighed:

"My eldest brother was also invincible with this spear back then. Xie Yuan, the power of this spear cannot be underestimated, you have to control it well. It's a good opportunity for you to start practicing now, use it to practice the Burning Heaven and Exterminating Dao Spear, and strive to achieve the unity of man, spear and technique."

He patted Xie Yuan's shoulder heavily:

"I have passed on both the spearmanship and the gun to you, Xie Yuan. The burden of the Xie family now falls on your shoulders."

"what?"

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Uncle, not so fast, right?"

"It's only a matter of time. Just practice hard."

Xie Yi smiled, waved his hand, and left Xie Yuan's compound.

After Xie Yuan and others sent Xie Yi away, they took the gun and looked at and stroked it for a long time, with a look of joy on their faces. They were not as happy as they were when they touched a girl's hand.

This gun is truly extraordinary!
There is no martial artist who does not want a magical weapon.

Although Xie Yuan has a mysterious weapon that can be transformed into a hundred weapons, it is only "easy to use" and very suitable for Xie Yuan to carry, but it cannot be considered very powerful.

But now this gun is obviously a trump card that is extremely powerful and can change the situation.

Holding this gun, although it has not been unlocked yet, its sharpness and material are already better than the Hundred Changes Mysterious Weapon, and its penetrating power can easily penetrate top-notch armor and thick blood.

Moreover, the shape is also excellent, luxurious and restrained, and it makes you feel tasteful when holding it.

Xie Yuan couldn't help but wave his sword a few times in the yard, and he felt that his skills had greatly improved.

"Good good."

Xie Yuan praised it endlessly and put away his spear. If it weren't for the huge consumption today, he would definitely practice another move of Peace on Earth right away.

"Shijian, take the gun! Why don't you change your name to Shiqiang from now on... It doesn't sound good, calling it Fuqiang... Forget it, just call it Shijian."

Xie Yuan felt that this name was a bit inappropriate and would easily make people think that he had a bad taste, so he decided to just forget it.

Shi Jian helped Xie Yuan put the precious spear back into the gun case, and his eyes lit up when he looked at this top-notch weapon.

She didn't care about the name.

The young master can change it or not, but I don’t know why he keeps shaking his head.

Xie Yuan obtained magical skills and mysterious weapons, and his worth increased several times. In the first few days, he even wanted to lie on the dragon soul and practice martial arts in his dreams.

Having suddenly acquired supernatural powers, he naturally put aside all distractions, forgot about food and sleep, and practiced hard day and night.

In the past few days, he went to the eighth floor of the armory to seek hands-on guidance from Xie Fu, asking him to correct his mistakes and point out the way. Xie Yuan soon went from having to rest for most of the day after practicing a complete session to being able to practice two or three times a day. Now he can practice four or five times a day and still have enough energy to practice other methods.

Xie Fucai had only been teaching for a few days when he suddenly realized that there was not much to teach about the first move, Peace on Earth!

Xie Yuan's progress was visible to the naked eye. He understood everything at once and never made the same mistake twice. He was simply the top student. After teaching him the basics and the concepts and spirit of spearmanship, he just had to practice slowly. Practice makes perfect. There didn't seem to be anything to say.

Xie Fu suddenly felt that he was indeed suitable for practicing this Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear.

But what he didn't know was that Xie Yuan was basically like this no matter what he practiced. Other teachers had expressed the same sentiment before, and more than one of them.

So Xie Fu asked Xie Yuan to practice harder. He didn't have to come every day, but he could still climb to the eighth floor every now and then. This would allow him to check his progress and see if there were any mistakes. He could also comprehend the skills of the Burning Heaven and Exterminating Dao Spear from time to time, and by comparing them with the demonstration of the figure on the first page, he could comprehend more and make faster progress.

After a while, Xie Yuan could practice Renjian Taiping ten times each in the morning and afternoon, and his progress was very fast. After correcting many useless movements and straightening out the Qi flow, Xie Yuan would not consume so much energy as long as he did not use his full strength. Of course, after a day, just practicing spear would still make him very tired, but the endless supply of various tonic soups and elixirs that Yun Zhu brought from the pharmacy, as well as the endless top-grade medicinal food in the kitchen, all made up for his consumption to the greatest extent, allowing him to continue practicing with more energy the next day.

With such high-intensity martial arts training, the progress of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear was naturally very fast, and his blood energy was also rapidly improving.

It's not just about the state of mind, what's more important is the quality.

Now Xie Yuan's blood and energy have shrunk a little, but not in quantity. Half of his blood and energy have become more condensed, with a domineering aura. Mobilizing the same blood and energy, the power of his moves is much greater than before. When confronting an enemy who has practiced a high-level training method, he will no longer be at a disadvantage.

If the other half of the blood and energy can be condensed successfully, then Xie Yuan will have changed his martial arts technique. Even though there is still a gap between him and the top children from aristocratic families, he is not at a disadvantage compared to others in this regard.

Practicing magical skills and making rapid progress, Xie Yuan's strength is increasing rapidly.

He basically ran back and forth between the compound and the Xie family armory every day. Many clan members noticed this abnormality and started asking about it.

However, the Grand Masters were present that day, and the specific process was no longer accessible to ordinary clan members. They only heard the news from hearsay, and knew that Xie Yuan did not stay below the eighth floor every day.

Where can that be?

Many tribesmen secretly hissed, knowing that Xie Yuan had been appreciated by the Zhenwu Elder again and practiced martial arts with him every day!
This is really about transforming into a dragon.

It was not until later that Xie Lingyun found out that what Xie Yuan had said that day about Elder Zhenwu being very enthusiastic about letting him practice the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear was true, and she was immediately itching to do something.

As a result, Xie Yuan was so obsessed with practicing martial arts that he only remembered Xie Lingyun after many days. How could this sticky candy disappear for so long?

He was still a little worried, wondering if she was ill or had a more serious problem to resolve. So he took the initiative to look for her, only to discover that this girl had also begun to practice martial arts diligently.

Xie Yuan stood aside and saw Xie Lingyun working hard, which was a rare sight.

She wielded a soft sword like silver light filling the sky, chopping the dummy in front of her into pieces, leaving only the dummy's face intact on the ground, with a note stuck on it:
"My cousin."

"..."

Xie Yuan was silent for a while, but still quite pleased:

"Why are you trying so hard?"

"Humph, I also want to practice the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear!"

Xie Lingyun put away her soft sword, stood beside the chicken and rabbit pen in her yard, and hummed softly.

Xie Yuan looked at her and shook his head.
"Isn't it suitable for you to practice?"

"What doesn't fit?"

Xie Lingyun looked angry.

"You're too short."

Xie Yuan pointed out the point:

"Unless you use a pistol, but that's not necessary. This isn't pistol technique... What, what?"

Xie Lingyun was so angry that she rushed to Xie Yuan and punched him, gritting her teeth:

"Can you speak?"

To be honest, Xie Lingyun was not too short for a woman, but she was obviously not tall either, at least not tall enough to be able to wield a spear easily. With such a congenital deficiency, there was basically no need to think about practicing spearmanship.

Xie Yuan held Xie Lingyun's little head with one hand, and Xie Lingyun's claws couldn't reach him, so he hit around in the air like a mad little animal.

Seeing that Xie Lingyun was about to get angry, Xie Yuan let go of her hand with a smile and said:
"There are other techniques on the eighth floor, there must be one suitable for you."

"Hmph, that's fine too."

As Xie Lingyun spoke, she exhaled, and it was obvious that she was a little tired from practicing martial arts.

Xie Yuan raised his eyebrows:

"Don't you always stop practicing when you're done? Why are you working so hard these days? Are you inspired by my talent?"

"shameless."

Xie Lingyun pouted, and then said:
"I want to become stronger too. Is that abnormal?"

"Normal is normal... Why do you want to become stronger?"

Xie Lingyun glanced at him and said firmly:
"I'm afraid your power is increasing too fast and I can't keep up."

Xie Yuan was silent for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Don't worry, even if you don't know how to practice, I won't despise you."

Xie Lingyun wrinkled her nose, snorted, and said to herself:

"But I would hate it myself...if I can't help you."

Seeing that Xie Lingyun was relatively normal... probably, Xie Yuan felt relieved.

He and Xie Lingyun went into the house to chat and said casually:

"I feel like the family has been a bit busy lately?"

"Are you busy? Oh, is the Hidden Dragon Banquet about to begin?"

Xie Lingyun thought about it and nodded slightly.

Hidden Dragon Banquet?
Xie Yuan suddenly thought of the Xiao Qianlong Society of the Yao family in Jinling.

The reason why this "Small Qianlong Club" has a small word in its name is that it is trying to piggyback on the reputation of Qianlong Banquet.

The Qianlong Banquet is held by the imperial court, inviting young masters at the top of the Qianlong list to the capital to attend the banquet, to make friends through martial arts, and to compete with each other but not just for competition. The winner can receive generous rewards from the royal family and become famous throughout the world.

Those who have been invited to the Qianlong Banquet are basically real influential figures. The top-ranked Qianlong geniuses, who started from the late stage of the third level of Qi and blood transformation, will almost all become masters in the future.

And the winner is naturally the most talented among the talented.

Xie Yuan had heard of the Qianlong Banquet before, and it turned out to be held soon.

"Who will the family send?"

Xie Yuan asked curiously.

"Send? They are all invited by the imperial court, and they summon young people from the people to come to the imperial court for approval. The family still has to give face to the imperial court and cooperate with them to make this grand event beautiful."

Xie Lingyun said:
"But it's most likely Xie Wei. He is currently ranked the highest on the Hidden Dragon List and has the greatest reputation in the outside world."

Xie Yuan nodded. Although there were many powerful people in the clan, Xie Wei was still the best among them, and was the representative of the younger generation of the family.

Top families like the Xie family of Chen County usually keep a low profile and will not let too many geniuses show up in public. They will only promote their representatives.

On the contrary, aristocratic families like the Yao family of Jinling, which are in a bad situation, wish their young people would rank as high as possible.

The difference is probably the difference between hiding one's strength and bluffing. If one is really strong, it is enough to show a little bit of strength to make the villains afraid to act rashly; if one is not strong, it is even more necessary to do so.

The Hidden Dragon Banquet is a stage to show the strength of the young people in the family, so it is natural to be cautious. But that is only a small scale. Why does it feel like the family is particularly busy recently?
Xie Yuan shook his head, and he concentrated on practicing martial arts without paying much attention to it, and he didn't know how the Xie family operated. Although Xie Yi wanted him to inherit the position of patriarch, Xie Yuan declined.

At this time, the Xie family meeting hall was a quiet courtyard surrounded by mountains and water.

Xie Yi, several elders in charge of clan affairs, and Xie Wei's grandfather were gathered in the hall and took their seats.

Xie Wei's grandfather Xie You stroked his beard, looked at the golden letter in front of Xie Yi, and said with a smile:

"Master, has the invitation to Xie Wei arrived?"

Xie Yi lowered his head and glanced at the majestic letter, pondering for a moment, not knowing how to tell Xie You.

In fact, even he didn't understand why this name was written on the golden letter paper.

"Invite Chenjun Xie and Xie Yuan to come to Shengjing on the fourth day of the winter month to participate in the Qianlong Banquet..." (End of this chapter)
