Chapter 83: Peerless Martial Arts and the Three Visions and Nine Realms

Listening to Zhang Mu's question, Lin Jinglong answered as he walked, "Since you have obtained the secret manual of Cold Dragon Killing Spring, you should know the origin of this spear technique, right?"

"Yes, Ice Valley! It is said to be the unique skill of Ice Valley!" Zhang Mu replied.

"Yes, this is the unique skill that protects the Ice Valley." Lin Jinglong explained with a smile, "If the imperial court destroys the Ice Valley, then the things in the Ice Valley will belong to the imperial court, right?"

"But the court can no longer be called by this name."

"Firstly, it makes people think that the imperial court is robbing people by force, and secondly, it will make the Ice Valley's reputation everlasting..."

"So, not only has the name changed, but even some of the moves have changed."

"In the end, it became the current Nine Transformations of the Cold Dragon!"

"In fact, it's not just Lingshuang Spearmanship. Most of the other martial arts from the sects that were wiped out also suffered the same fate."

"The Dayun Dynasty used these martial arts to establish a government office composed exclusively of martial artists."

"It's the Pacification Office!"

"When you're out and about, if you run into anyone from this government office, don't provoke them. Avoid them if you can. If you do provoke them, you must kill them completely. Do you understand?"

Zhang Mu nodded after hearing this.

After walking for a while, Zhang Mu asked again, "Teacher, there is one thing I don't understand."

"You said."

"When I was learning Cold Dragon Killing Spring, the secret manual seemed to have the ability to transmit skills directly into my soul. I could even hear the instructions of the senior. After I finished learning, the secret manual dissipated. What happened?"

This problem troubled him for a long time at that time. He once asked the escort leader Song Yuanqing in a roundabout way, but Song Yuanqing had never encountered it before, so he could not explain it to him.

Hearing this, Lin Jinglong smiled again, patted Zhang Mu on the head, and said, "You, you don't even realize you've got a great opportunity."

"It's just right. I want to talk to you about martial arts."

"When we talk about martial arts, we are referring to ordinary martial arts. Although there are differences in strength, there are basically three levels: minor success, major success, and perfection."

"Corresponding to skills, momentum, and intention respectively!"

"You were instructing everyone at the Military Academy today, so you should be very clear about this."

Zhang Mu nodded. In his understanding, skills, such as sword skills, are proficient moves that can produce subconscious instinctive reactions when encountering threats; while momentum will increase the power of the moves and also have a certain mental suppression effect; and at the level of intention, it can even bring about a certain mental attack.

Seeing that Zhang Mu understood, Lin Jinglong continued, "But above ordinary martial arts, there are peerless martial arts, or simply called peerless martial arts."

"The move you practiced, Cold Dragon Killing Spring, is a unique skill."

"Unparalleled skills also have three levels: spiritual charm, divine charm, and dao charm."

"You can think of them as the minor, major, and complete accomplishments of general martial arts."

When Zhang Mu heard Lin Jinglong's words, he suddenly remembered that the Tianji List's previous evaluation of Hanlong Pochun was Lingyun martial arts.

"General martial arts only focus on the warrior's own strength; however, peerless martial arts are about connecting with the power of heaven and earth."

"The simplest application of spiritual charm is to stimulate the opponent's five senses. For example, your Cold Dragon Kills Spring makes people feel as if they are seeing an ice dragon roaring towards them."

"Shenyun is a further development of Lingyun. It can mobilize the power of heaven and earth to be even more magnificent. I have never come into contact with it, so I cannot explain it to you."

"But I can answer your question."

"Unparalleled skills are rich in inner meaning and cannot be expressed on paper. Therefore, in order to pass on these skills, in addition to in-person instruction, only masters who have mastered the inner meaning can leave behind a piece of their soul and infuse it into a specially crafted scroll, preserving the corresponding unique skills for future generations to comprehend. This kind of secret manual of unique skills will dissipate due to the exhaustion of the soul after being read four or five times, or as little as one or two times."

Seeing Zhang Mu's appearance and considering his talent, Lin Jinglong decided to open Zhang Mu's eyes again and said, "I have never mentioned the cultivation level to you. How much do you know?"

Zhang Mu said, "I've seen it at the escort agency. I'm currently at the Tongmai realm, and after that comes the Yangye realm like you, the Judan realm. After the Yangye realm, there's another realm called the Judan realm. I don't know what comes after that."

Lin Jinglong shook his head upon hearing this and thought about the escort agency: "It's a small escort agency after all, with fragments and incomplete sentences."

"Remember, in our human martial arts, there are three stages and nine realms!" "Three stages refer to the three major stages of cultivation."

"The difference is——"

"See yourself!"

"See Heaven and Earth!"

“See all living beings!”

"The first one is seeing oneself, also known as the three realms of martial arts. These are the three realms you just mentioned."

"Opens the meridians, nourishes the fluids, and gathers the gallbladder."

"At this stage, the focus is on the warrior's own strength. Although it far exceeds that of ordinary people, it is still a mortal body."

"The second sight, seeing the heaven and earth, is also called the third realm of the Grandmaster. Anyone who enters this realm can be called a Grandmaster."

"They are the Divine Power Realm, the Gangsha Realm, and the Martial Spirit Realm."

"The Grandmaster can already harness the power of heaven and earth, and his power is limitless."

"Among them, the Wuling Realm is the last of the three realms of Grandmaster, and can also be called the Supreme Grandmaster."

"The Supreme Grand Master is the most powerful force in this secular world!"

Zhang Mu secretly took note of this and asked, "What about the third encounter?"

"The third vision?" Lin Jinglong smiled. "I don't understand it either. I just heard someone say that the third vision is seeing all living beings. When you reach this level, you will be like a god in heaven, controlling the fate of billions of lives."

"This stage is also called the third realm of immortals, and can be called a land immortal."

"If I hadn't met that person, I wouldn't have believed that this realm existed."

"Teacher, have you ever seen an immortal?" Zhang Mu asked curiously.

"I've seen you!" Lin Jinglong nodded, his eyes filled with memories, "It's been a while..."

Zhang Mu wanted to ask more, but Lin Jinglong waved his hand. "I'm telling you this so you understand that the road to martial arts is long and arduous. Don't waste your time relying on your talent. Do you understand?"

Zhang Mu nodded obediently.

Lin Jinglong patted Zhang Mu on the shoulder, took Zhang Mu for a while, and finally stopped in front of a stone door.

Zhang Mu looked up and saw a cave that seemed to be hollowed out of a small hill.

Lin Jinglong walked to the stone door and turned the mechanism. The stone door slowly opened, revealing what was behind it.

Zhang Mu spotted Xuan Ji lying in the cave behind the stone gate. She seemed to be sleeping, her lips smacking as she dreamed of something. Around her were eight gleaming objects, clearly not ordinary items.

Zhang Mu took a step forward and took a deep breath, and he felt his meridians relaxed and his blood boiling.

"Her injuries have mostly healed, so she should be awake by now," Lin Jinglong explained. "But this is a blessing in disguise for Mimi. She seems to be brewing a breakthrough."

"Wait a minute."

Hearing that Xuan Ji was not only fine but also able to break through, Zhang Mu finally felt relieved.

Just as Zhang Mu was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Lin Jinglong's words again.

"Don't worry about her staying in the mountains!"

"Wait a few days after you complete your final body tempering, then go down the mountain!"

Zhang Mu was stunned and looked at Lin Jinglong in confusion.

"Teacher, are you going to kick me out?"
