The invasion of the abyss begins with the Laughing at the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 81: Chinese Martial Arts
"General Shen, my master is only the governor of Liaodong. I don't know how many eyes are on him in the court."

"To show my sincerity, here is a hundred thousand taels of silver. I hope General Shen will forgive me. I am fine, and everyone is fine!"

Perhaps because he saw that Shen Yuanliang indeed had no intention of becoming emperor, Master Li subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve, and said with a smile.

After a heated exchange of words, both sides understood each other's bottom line. The tense atmosphere suddenly dissipated and the entire hall became much brighter.

"Not enough, you need more money!"

"Golden Bell Cover plus ten second-rate martial arts secret manuals."

Tapping the table repeatedly, Shen Yuanliang stared into Master Li's eyes and spoke word by word, his tone full of unquestionable determination.

"General Shen, 'Golden Bell Cover' is the Shaolin Temple's unique martial art, a secret that is never passed on."

Hearing Shen Yuanliang's sudden and loud cry, Master Li tore off a strand of his gray beard in astonishment and spoke in a very serious tone.

"That's the request!"

"If you don't agree, you know the consequences."

Without further bargaining, Shen Yuanliang said firmly.

In fact, Shen Yuanliang knew from the beginning that Xiong Tingbi would never agree to ask for iron materials, food and other supplies. If he really gave them to them, he would be colluding with the rebels and telling others that there was something wrong with him.

As a second best option, asking for martial arts secrets is the best option.

With the help of a third-rate martial arts secret book "Iron Shirt" and combined with the national martial arts from his previous life, Shen Yuanliang deduced a national martial arts version of "Iron Shirt".

However, the second version of "Iron Shirt" only has four levels, and can only be cultivated to the sixth level of martial arts, that is, the Baodan realm, and it is not capable of going any higher.

Shen Yuanliang wanted to learn from Shaolin Temple's "Golden Bell Cover" and the external power training secrets of the Ming Dynasty world, so as to create the follow-up path of Chinese martial arts.

"General Shen, I need to discuss this with the adults."

After nearly a month of extreme tension, Xiong Tingbi finally agreed to all of Shen Yuanliang's requests and presented him with the "Golden Bell Cover" and ten second-rate martial arts secrets.

In the quiet study, wisps of incense smoke rise up and a unique fragrance spreads. This is the fragrance of the burning snow lotus rice husk, which can make people concentrate and calm.

"Is this the Shaolin Temple's 12-level Golden Bell? It is indeed extraordinary."

Flipping through the "Golden Bell Cover" in his hand, Shen Yuanliang was deeply shocked. His heart felt like it was in turmoil and he couldn't recover for a long time.

It is said that Bodhidharma mastered the twelve levels of "Golden Bell Cover" and achieved an indestructible body.

In order to build the Shaolin Temple, he allowed himself to be beaten, kicked, chopped with swords, burned by fire and drowned by water by masters of various schools. He was also required to stay awake and eat for 500 days, and even to take poison that could penetrate the intestines, yet he remained safe and sound.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Yuanliang's mind sank into the "Niwan Palace", communicating with the mysterious bronze tripod in his mind, and a blue light curtain came into view.

Luck: 1.2 million copies "Use 300,000 Luck as the furnace fire, and the "Golden Bell Cover", "Iron Cloth Shirt" and other body-building secrets as materials, and refine them for me."

Shen Yuanliang summoned a mysterious cauldron emitting a bronze glow, and then threw martial arts secrets such as "Golden Bell Cover" into it, and colorful light flashed.

Just like refining elixir, the "Golden Bell Cover" and the martial arts secrets seized from aristocratic families are the so-called rare "medicinal materials", which are finally used to refine a perfect "elixir".

Suddenly, a martial arts secret book emitting black and white light turned into a stream of light and appeared in the palm of Shen Yuanliang's hand. The third edition of "Iron Shirt" was freshly released.

Using Qi movement as a catalyst, Shen Yuanliang eventually deduced the last two levels of Chinese martial arts, namely, refining strength into the power of Gang Qi and breaking through the void to achieve indestructible gods.

According to the level classification of the abyss, Gang Jin and the fifth to third grades of martial arts are all in the second realm, while Jian Shen Bu Hua and the first and second grades of martial arts are equivalent to practitioners in the third realm.

As for Ming Jin, An Jin, Hua Jin, Bao Dan and the ninth to sixth levels of martial arts, they are all creatures in the first realm and have just embarked on the path of cultivation.

"It's time to break through the Gangjin!"

Shen Yuanliang put down the third edition of "Iron Shirt" in his hand, and then came to the yard. He performed boxing and kicking skills as smoothly as flowing water, with great vigor and power, and the green leaves in the sky swayed with his punches and kicks.

As the sun sets, the afterglow of the sunset shines on Shen Yuanliang, filling the air with a sense of quietness and peace.

"boom!"

The strong energy that penetrated the body tore through the air flow. White lines flashed by, and the green leaves in the sky turned into mustard powder, fluttering down to form a huge "Shen" character.

After completing the fifth cycle of practicing "The Magic Art of the Heavenly Silkworm", all the acquired impurities in his body were expelled, and Shen Yuanliang transformed into an innate creature in one fell swoop. Not only did his strength increase greatly, like a cub of a divine beast, but his own qualifications also skyrocketed.

After two months of accumulation and the deduction of the subsequent path of traditional Chinese martial arts, Shen Yuanliang instantly crossed the Baodan realm and is now a master of Gangjin. The Gangqi on his body's surface surrounds an inch around his body.

The bronze light lingered outside the body, so bright and dazzling, like a god descending from the sky, making people dare not look directly at it and tremble with fear.

"Brother Liang, you are awesome!"

On the side, Shitou, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't help but applaud. His slightly dark face was full of pride and a bright smile.

"Shitou, you are now at the sixth level of martial arts, at the peak of Baodan."

"This is the third edition of "Iron Shirt". After Baodan, there are Gangjin and Shenjin. Take a look first. If you don't understand anything, ask me."

Picking up the towel on the table and washing his face with mountain spring water, Shen Yuanliang immediately felt refreshed. The pores all over his body opened slightly, absorbing and exhaling the energy between heaven and earth.

A small tornado quietly appeared above Shen Yuanliang's head, as if the Niwan Palace had opened up, and the Yuan energy of heaven and earth poured in.

"Brother Liang, I'm not in a hurry."

"One hundred thousand soldiers were recruited twenty days ago. After more than half a month of training, their willpower and endurance were fully honed."

"Now it's time to move on to the next step of training. Should we promote "Iron Shirt" throughout the army?"

Scratching his head, Stone asked seriously.

As the actual controller of the Liaodong Peninsula, it is not an easy task for Shen Yuanliang to recruit 100,000 new soldiers just by talking. Shitou has been busy these days.
