Chapter 76: Changing muscles and forging bones
Maid Lin didn't know how to swim and was already panicking. She had no time to use her internal energy to resist and was easily knocked unconscious.

It would be troublesome to send her back now, so Gu Ping'an had no choice but to drag her out.

With the help of the system, he has completely mastered the secret of holding his breath. Although he has only just begun to learn the basics, he is much better than Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu when they first learned it.

At this time, he dragged the unconscious maid Lin all the way out until the terrain gradually rose and emerged from the water, and he did not feel any sense of suffocation.

There was a faint light ahead. Walking further, I saw the exit.

This is a cave. There is a faint morning light outside the cave, and it turns out that it is already dawn.

In the morning light, there is a dense forest and a sea of flowers, which is rarely visited by people. According to the map on the top of the stone chamber, although this place is in a remote place under the ridge, it is actually not far from Lingyuan Village.

Gu Ping'an helped maid Lin spit out all the water she had just drunk, and while she was still asleep, he got up and returned to the village.

It was only the morning hour and the old grandmother had not woken up yet. He tiptoed back to the room, changed his clothes, and sat down cross-legged.

The biggest gain from this night exploration of the ancient tomb was undoubtedly the "Yi Jin Duan Gu Chapter" in the "Nine Yin Scriptures".

In the original novel, Guo Jing practiced this chapter for only a few days, and his skills suddenly increased by 20%. With his strength at that time, he was able to force Ouyang Feng to retreat half a step.

Just now, time was running out in the secret room of the Tomb of the Living Dead, and Gu Ping'an only had time to memorize the scriptures. Although he had some understanding, he only truly mastered a little bit.

At least the system prompted "learning the secret of breath holding", but I didn't see any "learning the art of strengthening muscles and bones".

He closed his eyes and concentrated, carefully recalling the contents of the scriptures.

Every word and sentence came to mind. After reciting it all, I suddenly felt a faint movement in my dantian.

If an ordinary martial artist encounters such a situation, it is likely that something has gone wrong in his practice and it is a sign of going astray.

But he has the system by his side, so how could he possibly run into the danger of going astray?

The internal breath automatically splits into two streams, one warm and one cool, and flows along the meridians in the body without any guidance.

One is forward and the other is reverse, each chooses a path, and they separate as soon as they touch the Baihui point on the top of the head. There is no obstruction in the middle and they do not disturb each other.

The back is yang, the abdomen is yin; the Du meridian is yang, the Ren meridian is yin.

After about half an hour, the two streams of air each completed a small cycle and then returned to the Qi Hai Dantian, where the yin and yang blended and returned to calm.

Martial arts novels often mention the various dangers of opening the Ren and Du meridians, but I really didn't encounter any of them.

It can actually improve the level of internal strength!

Gu Ping'an felt the sense of fullness in his dantian, and felt that the trip was worthwhile.

The internal energy he gained from drawing cards was only a dozen years old. Now that his realm has been raised, although the age has not changed, it is obviously much more refined and profound.

Now, even without considering the techniques, just comparing the quality of his internal energy, he has far surpassed Qiu Chuji and Ma Yu, who have the strongest internal energy among the Seven Masters of Quanzhen.

"Thief who broke into the ancient tomb, come out, I know you are here."

Before he could think about it, a sound of infusing internal energy suddenly came from outside the house, cold and without any emotion.

Come to the door?
Gu Ping'an frowned slightly, feeling puzzled.

He threw the maid Lin at the entrance of the cave, then deliberately erased all traces and went around in a circle before returning to avoid trouble.

But she had just woken up and for some reason she still came to me.

Fortunately, his internal strength has improved greatly at this moment, and his power has leaped forward. If they face each other again, even if she uses all her skills, Gu Ping'an has a 90% chance of winning.

He was not slow in leaving, but who knew there would be someone faster.

"My name is Ke Zhen'e. May I ask who you are looking for?" A figure climbed over the wall and landed in front of maid Lin. It was Ke Zhen'e.

It turned out that the Six Monsters had made an appointment with Qiu Chuji to set off for Lin'an today.

So he got up early to pack his luggage, but suddenly he heard someone shouting outside the yard. Worried that someone was coming to provoke him, he jumped out to stop them.

Maid Lin glanced at him, not caring at all, and said in a calm tone, "This matter has nothing to do with you. I'm not looking for you."

Ke Zhenwu was slightly stunned. Just as he was about to ask another question, he was interrupted by Gu Ping'an.

"Senior Ke, this person is here to look for me."

"Young Master Gu, this man is quite powerful. I will deal with him together with you." Ke Zhen'e tightened the demon-subduing wand in his hand.

Just from the shout just now, he could tell that the person was stronger than him and others.

Although he felt a little dissatisfied with what Gu Ping'an said about Yang Kang yesterday, the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan have always been eager to help others and would never let anyone face a powerful enemy alone.

The rest of the six monsters also came out upon hearing the sound and stood in front of Gu Ping'an.

"Thank you six seniors for your help. I can handle this guy."

Gu Ping'an walked around the six monsters, bowed to them, and then looked at the maid Lin.

"Senior, although I 'accidentally' entered the ancient tomb, I didn't touch anything in it. You've been chasing me for so long, but I put aside our past grudges and saved your life. Can't I just write it off?"

There was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Also, how did you find this place?"

"Let's be clear, anyone who trespasses into an ancient tomb will be killed. Although you didn't kill Mo Chou and saved me, you can be spared the death penalty, but I still have to take you to the young lady's portrait to make amends."

Maid Lin remained unmoved and her face remained expressionless.

"As for your whereabouts, Jade Bee is the best at finding and tracking people."

Gu Ping'an almost slapped his forehead.

He even used the characteristics of the jade bees to find a route into the tomb at night, but not long after, he was tricked by these little creatures again.

But it doesn't matter. It just so happens that his strength has greatly improved, and he wants to find a suitable opponent to get familiar with.

What about the ancient tomb, the young lady, and the jade bee?
The six monsters were unaware of the past between Wang Chongyang and Lin Chaoying, and were confused as they listened, but that did not stop them from "sticking their necks out" to help.

In their eyes, Gu Ping'an is a junior like Guo Jing and Huang Rong. Now that he has encountered a powerful enemy, how can the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan sit idly by?

"Young Master Gu, this man is very powerful."

Zhu Cong was about to speak when he saw a flash before his eyes and Gu Ping'an had already flashed in front of Lin the maid.

"The junior is learning from your great skills."

Maid Lin discovered in the tomb that the young man was skilled in martial arts. Seeing that he took the initiative to fight, she did not hesitate and immediately attacked with her "Beauty Fist".

She raised her left hand diagonally, as if playing a pipa, and swept her right hand horizontally, with her five fingers plucking towards Gu Ping'an's chest like plucking strings.

This move is from "Zhaojun Going to the Frontier". It seems that she is attacking the enemy with her right hand, but her left hand is hiding changes. Her body movements look charming and graceful, but her attack is extremely fierce.

In her haste, she forgot to bring the gold bell and silver rope, but she always kept a pair of gold-thread gloves on her body, and she didn't know when she had put them on her hands.

"Young Master Gu, be careful!"

The six monsters were too hasty to stop Gu Ping'an from attacking, and seeing how brilliant this move was, they all broke out in cold sweats and rushed forward in unison.
