Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Xu Qing and his two disciples continued to venture deeper into Lingyun Cave, a cave that resembled a maze.

So far, the three have only explored less than half of the talent pool, yet they have already made various discoveries.

Knowing that there were even greater opportunities deeper inside, Duan Lang became even more proactive in his search.

The three split up to search, and without the threat of the Fire Qilin, they could move freely within the Lingyun Cave.

Searching separately can also increase the chances of finding an opportunity.

Soon, Xu Qing made a new discovery.

After refining the Qilin Fruit and obtaining the power of the Qilin, Xu Qing's strength increased not only in his blood and internal energy, but also in his spirit.

His spiritual power was condensed to an extreme, almost tangible, thus achieving the primordial spirit.

Therefore, the suppressive power of divine sense here is not as strong as before for Xu Qing.

His divine sense was already able to explore a range of ten feet around him, which allowed Xu Qing to easily see the details of the passages in the wall.

Therefore, after venturing deeper into Lingyun Cave, Xu Qing quickly discovered a hidden and special cave.

The cave is covered by a stone door, making it almost impossible to find.

But nothing could stop Xu Qing's divine sense from probing.

With a single punch, he easily shattered the stone door into dust, revealing the entrance to the hidden cave.

"Wanderer, Wind, come here."

Xu Qing used a telepathic technique to summon his two disciples to come find him.

Upon hearing Xu Qing's voice, the two rushed over and saw the mysterious cave before them.

"Master is truly blessed with good fortune, as he was able to discover even such a hidden cave."

Duan Lang said with a grin.

"Master, is this the place of great opportunity you spoke of?"

Nie Feng glanced curiously at the cave; it was incredibly dark inside, and he couldn't see anything from the outside.

Xu Qing nodded slightly: "Follow me inside for a look."

He stepped into the cave, then waved his hand and scattered several flames, which landed in various parts of the cave and illuminated the interior space.

Nie Feng and Duan Lang, who were following closely behind, were startled, their eyes drawn to the stone walls inside the cave.

"This is martial arts!?"

"So many martial arts techniques!"

The two exclaimed in surprise. The stone wall was covered with densely packed diagrams of energy cultivation routes, as well as exquisite martial arts moves.

Knife, gun, sword, halberd, club, fist, palm, leg, finger, claw!

This is simply all-encompassing, encompassing all martial arts principles.

With just one glance, the two understood that every martial art on it was of a very high level, and all of them were top-notch martial arts in the world.

"Master, these martial arts techniques are extremely exquisite and all-encompassing. Who left them here?!" Nie Feng asked curiously.

Xu Qing had previously mentioned that there was a great opportunity here, and now that the two of them saw these martial arts techniques, they understood that this must be the great opportunity that Xu Qing had mentioned.

Clearly, the master knows about the lineage here!

"Each martial art here represents a martial art style, and there are ten in total, hence the name 'Ten Strong Martial Arts Styles'."

It contains martial arts techniques involving fists, feet, and weapons, all originating from one person!

You've never heard of this person? His name is Wu Wudi!

Xu Qing spoke calmly, explaining the identity of the person who left behind this legacy.

"Wu Wudi?! This person's name is so great, with the name 'Invincible'!" This was the first time Duan Lang had ever heard of such a name.

"This invincible senior was able to leave behind such powerful martial arts techniques, his strength is far above ours!"

Nie Feng could vaguely sense the true essence of martial arts left behind by Wu Wudi in the mural's martial arts manual—a state of mind that was invincible. This man was so strong; he might have once been the number one martial artist in the world!

"Master, what kind of person is this?!" Duan Lang asked with great curiosity.

"Wu Wudi comes from the Wu family, a family with a long history and many powerful figures. These ten martial arts are all divine skills created by the ancestors of the Wu family."

Each of them was extraordinary, but Wu Wudi was the first martial arts genius to master all ten of them.

Furthermore, based on this, he integrated the ten strongest martial arts and created extremely powerful divine abilities!
His martial arts aptitude is so high that he can be considered the strongest martial artist in hundreds of years!

Xu Qing knew Wu Wudi's strength well. The Wu family had high hopes for him and he was the best candidate to break the curse.

Wu Wudi did not disappoint his ancestors, displaying exceptional talent and martial arts prowess.

He reached a level that no one in the Wu family had ever achieved.

Wu Wudi even defeated the ancient monster Di Shitian, who had lived for over a thousand years.

Its combat power can be described as extremely formidable.

"To master all ten martial arts techniques to perfection, and even create supernatural powers!?"

"Hiss, this is really powerful!" Duan Lang gasped.

The martial arts here are enough for a person to cultivate for a lifetime, and it may still be difficult to reach perfection.

However, Wu Wudi mastered all of them to perfection, and his comprehension and martial arts talent were terrifying.

"The Wu family? Master, why have I never heard of the Wu family when my World Society unified the martial arts world of the Central Plains?"

Could it be that even a family that once produced an invincible powerhouse has fallen into decline?

Nie Feng thought about it carefully. They had fought all the way and suppressed many Jianghu sects and martial arts families, but they had never encountered a Wu family.

Since the Wu family has such a distinguished lineage, it shouldn't have declined so easily.

"You're right, the Wu family is no longer as powerful as it was hundreds of years ago."

In the past, the ancestor of the Wu family once fought a great battle with an unparalleled expert. That expert was defeated by the ancestor of the Wu family, but was unwilling to accept defeat.

Therefore, that peerless expert used the power of the evil weapon in his hand to plant an extremely vicious curse on the Wu family, making it difficult for the Wu family to produce any more genius martial artists, and most of them died young!

Under the influence of the curse, the Wu family rapidly declined, gradually transforming from a powerful martial arts clan into a small, sparsely populated family.

Wu Wudi's exceptional talent stemmed from his father's use of a highly unusual method to remove most of the curse's power, thus granting him the invincible Wu Wudi.

Xu Qing revealed the secrets of the Wu family one by one. This martial arts family went from prosperity to decline in just a few hundred years.

"Despite losing, he was unwilling to accept it and even went so far as to cast such a vicious curse on the Wu family. That person is truly unbecoming of a strong person!"

Nie Feng shook his head. Many were unwilling to accept defeat, but some even used such evil curses to harm others after losing.

This is truly rare, which shows that the peerless expert was narrow-minded and not a kind person!

"How can such a vicious curse exist in this world? Is this still martial arts?"

Duan Lang also found this curse terrifying, as it nearly wiped out an entire family; it was truly horrifying.

Moreover, how can such a force be stopped?

The power of the curse is truly malevolent!
"A curse is an extremely evil power that transcends the realm of martial arts and involves the level of laws, which is the domain of supernatural powers."

Xu Qing explained that curses are among the most vicious types of supernatural powers.

Moreover, this kind of supernatural power is impossible to defend against, and there are very few ways to deal with it.

Among the many great paths, curses are one of the most prominent.

They're not aboveboard; they follow a shady path.

Xu Qing has always looked down on such methods.

"No wonder it can influence the fate of a family, this supernatural power is truly bizarre!" Duan Lang couldn't help but shudder.

With a deeper understanding of supernatural powers, we have discovered that bizarre supernatural powers are far more difficult to deal with than those powerful ones!
From now on, we must be extra vigilant!
