Chapter 23 Innate Skills

Mount Zhongnan is covered with snow and the chill is biting.

There was a stove in Gu Qing's room with a chimney built outside. The flame was burning vigorously. In the Quanzhen Sect, Gu Qing felt that the tension he had always maintained when traveling around the world was gone. He felt much more relaxed and slept especially soundly.

"Dong Dong!!"

There was a knock on the door, which made Gu Qing open his eyes. He looked at the figure outside through the window paper, and it vaguely looked like Qiu Chuji. He put on his clothes and opened the door.

"Master."

The person standing outside was indeed Qiu Chuji. Gu Qing quickly made way for him and said, "Come into the room and warm up."

"No need."

Qiu Chuji waved his hand and said, "Come with me for a walk."

Hearing this, Gu Qing tightened his clothes and followed Qiu Chuji out of the room. The oncoming wind and snow poured into Gu Qing's collar. Fortunately, the Quanzhen Sect's internal energy, which he practiced while walking, sitting or lying down, could counteract the coldness, and Gu Qing did not feel much discomfort.

"You caused the Quanzhen Sect to be divided and the people were in panic, but you slept soundly."

Qiu Chuji suddenly said.

"Walk at your leisure, sit at your ease, drink when you are thirsty, eat when you are hungry, sing when you are drunk, and lie down with Sha Yin when you are sleepy. The days and months are long, the world is vast, and you can enjoy your leisure time!"

Gu Qing said calmly.

This is a short song by Guan Hanqing. After hearing it, Qiu Chuji savored it carefully and said, "It does have some thoughts of escaping from the world... But you are a person who can't sit still."

After tasting it, Qiu Chuji felt that it was not original.

Gu Qing laughed and said, "I fought hard down the mountain, but now that I'm in Zhongnan Mountain, can't I just relax and enjoy myself?"

"of course can."

Qiu Chuji smiled and said, "Quanzhen Sect is in the area controlled by Mongolia, which makes us dependent on it. We are restricted in our ability to move freely and sit at ease. After discussion, we feel that it is a good idea to disperse Quanzhen Sect. However, your statement that Chongyang Palace has become the biggest obstacle to the development of Quanzhen Sect is hard for us to accept."

This is what Gu Qing said when he persuaded everyone in Quanzhen Sect to migrate after returning to the sect.

"I just said it was too much, and it just came out of my mouth."

Gu Qing said.

Qiu Chuji nodded, looked at Gu Qing, and said, "You want to fight the Mongols, so Quanzhen Sect and Chongyang Palace cannot be your stumbling blocks. We have decided that we will each lead a group of Quanzhen Sect disciples to establish sects in other places. As for Chongyang Palace, we can't just give up. We still have to leave some people to watch over our ancestral temple... Of course, if we see that the situation is not good, we will run away."

Fighting with the Mongols was another point that Gu Qing mentioned in Chongyang Palace. It involved the interests of the family and the country, and all Quanzhen disciples supported it.

"This is the Xiantian skill of the Chongyang Patriarch. Once you memorize it, you will be able to go down the mountain."

Qiu Chuji handed a book to Gu Qing.

Gu Qing stretched out his hands and took over the Xiantian Gong.

"Innate Qi and acquired Qi, those who obtain them often seem drunk."

"Pay attention to the changes of reality and emptiness, and let the Qi flow through the body without stagnation."

Gu Qing looked at the content silently.

This is the essence of Quanzhen Sect, and the reason why Wang Chongyang was able to suppress the Four Supreme Beings. It is also the secret scroll that Gu Qing has been plotting since he came to Quanzhen Sect. Now Gu Qing looks at the contents inside and directly chooses to consume the good merits, remembering everything about Xiantian Gong in his heart and never forgetting it.

Gu Qing originally had accumulated a lot of good deeds, waiting to encounter a fight between Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng in Huashan, where he could reap some benefits. However, the two men did not fight to the point of exhaustion, so neither of them showed their moves for Gu Qing to learn.

The stored good deeds were brought back to Quanzhen Sect by Gu Qing and came in handy at this time.

After memorizing the contents of the Xiantian Gong scroll, Gu Qing took the scroll, leaned forward and sniffed it carefully, observing the paper of the secret book under the moonlight and firelight. When Gu Qing was about to throw the secret book into the water, he was stopped by Qiu Chuji.

"My master is upright and honest. He left us the secret manual, so of course it is word for word. He would not resort to such tricks."

Qiu Chuji said: "He didn't want us to practice the Nine Yin Scriptures back then because the exquisiteness of this Xiantian Gong is not inferior to the Nine Yin Scriptures. As long as you practice well, you will achieve something." After Qiu Chuji said this, he left with the Xiantian Gong.

Gu Qing nodded seriously, silently thinking about the martial arts principles in Xiantian Gong.

The so-called innate one is to condense one's three treasures, essence, energy and spirit into one, to form the innate energy. Because it condenses the spiritual energy, after the innate internal skill of innate power is used, one's own energy has its own will and is not affected by external force.

Gu Qing applied the good fortune, and the true Qi flowed through his body one section at a time, making him feel clear-headed and calm. He also felt his internal energy swirling and moving quickly, like strands of hair, binding together all the Qi in his body. A single strand could move the whole body, allowing Gu Qing to reach an extremely subtle level of control over his body.

"This Xiantian Gong is the innate energy. In addition to being powerful and domineering, it seems to be compatible with other internal energy operation methods."

Gu Qing tried to apply the Nine Yin Scriptures.

This was the way of applying the internal energy that he had originally learned. The internal energy of the Xiantian Gong was naturally transformed. Gu Qing applied the internal energy of the Nine Yin Scriptures calmly. It was only after about an incense stick of time after finishing the exercise that the internal energy of the Nine Yin Scriptures was gradually transformed back into the internal energy of the Xiantian Gong.

Xiantian Gong is the innate Qi that is a fusion of the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit, while the Nine Yin Scriptures is the acquired Qi in the body. The internal strength of Xiantian Gong can naturally promote the operation of the Nine Yin Scriptures.

Similarly, Gu Qing can also use Xiantian Gong to promote the operation of the Jade Girl Heart Sutra...but this requires Gu Qing to have a deep understanding of the Jade Girl Heart Sutra.

"When Zhou Botong was on Peach Blossom Island, his strength was already at the level of the Five Supremes, but he thought that he had only just begun to learn martial arts. He also believed that if Wang Chongyang were alive, with Wang Chongyang's talent and martial arts progress, they could once again hold the Huashan Sword Contest and defeat the Four Supremes in half a day."

Gu Qing thought of Zhou Botong's words. This Xiantian Gong was so mysterious. Zhou Botong said that the research of Quanzhen Sect's martial arts would never end, which was really true.

This was Mount Zhongnan. Gu Qing did not try to practice the Toad Skill, but instead carefully sensed the magical effect of the Xiantian Skill until dawn. Then, Gu Qing said goodbye to the Quanzhen disciples, packed up his luggage, and went down the mountain as a separate branch of the Quanzhen Sect.

From now on, Gu Qing will establish his own school.

When leaving, Gu Qing went to the back mountain of Quanzhen Sect, mainly to see how Yang Guo was doing.

In the two thatched houses, one had a faint smoke rising from the kitchen, while the other was cold and deserted.

Gu Qing walked to the door and saw Yang Guo standing in the snow. There was a thin layer of ice all over his body, and he seemed to be frozen. He then used his internal energy to transfer it into Yang Guo's body, breaking the thin ice outside his body and allowing Yang Guo to recover.

"My aunt doesn't want me anymore."

After seeing Gu Qing, Yang Guo said sadly that he stood outside and wanted Xiaolongnu to forgive him, but his body was frozen and Xiaolongnu ignored him.

Yang Guo seemed to feel Xiaolongnu's determination and felt extremely heartbroken.

"Does your aunt want me?"

Gu Qing did not comfort Yang Guo, but asked.

TOM!

Yang Guo exploded.
