With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 382 The Great Sage's Disciple's Divine Skill: Qi Daoren's Cultivation Treasure Land!

"Principal Yang did this for you; our campus is missing a master of Five Elements Fist."

The arrival of Daoist Qi undoubtedly fills this void.

When Meng Chuan heard what Master Dong said, he felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Lao Yang, that old fox, is actually a pretty good person.
Previously, the two had indeed developed some tension because of the eye between the other's eyebrows.

But this barrier has gradually melted away over time.

As long as no one pries into his secrets, he will still be Principal Yang's good student.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was obscured by dark clouds, and the air was stuffy and humid.

On the way to Wude Tower, Meng Chuan's mood, like the weather, became somewhat gloomy.

Winter has long arrived in Yong'an, and the weather this winter is particularly bad.

The fact that the sun never casts a shadow all day indirectly affected Meng Chuan's spiritual practice.

He hasn't triggered the Dawn and Dusk Enlightenment for a long time.

It's really frustrating not being able to see the sun rise in the east and set in the west.
It was still classroom C985. Meng Chuan was back from the Demon Nest and was attending his first martial arts theory class.

Everyone already knew of his incredible performance in the Demon Nest, which turned the tide.

One person accounted for more than half of the total merits of the North Associated University, helping the school to overtake the East Associated University and win first place.

Finally, the Great Sage of the Dragon waited at the entrance of the Demon's Nest and personally escorted the God of War back to school!
Now that they've seen the real person, they've all started to make a ruckus and shout:
"Brother Chuan is here for class!"

"Brother Chuan, I heard you went to the Demon's Nest and made a fortune. You have to take me with you next time!"

Someone lamented:
"The God of War has returned, single-handedly slaughtering all the monstrous creatures in the demon's lair, and finally receiving the Great Sage's teachings. Awesome!"

Some people even started singing.
"Return, God of the Demon Nest, my proudest faith."

Meng Chuan was speechless. What was all this about? He smiled wryly.
"Brothers, that's a bit of an exaggeration."

He cupped his hands in greeting to the crowd and then found an empty seat to sit down.

Beside him, Chen Jing, the top student at the Yong'an campus who had just entered the realm of martial arts master, joked with him:
"Xiao Meng, I heard that you have become the disciple of the Divine Dragon Venerable. Now you are a disciple of the Great Sage. You must take good care of your brother in the future."

Meng Chuanfu is speechless. How can anything be spread like this, and the more it's spread, the more bizarre it becomes?
"Brother Chen, is this for real? I have no idea!"

"Haha, it must be true, I see everyone saying that."

"."

After a brief moment of noise, Grandmaster Chen Qiushui, whom we hadn't seen for a long time, arrived gracefully.

The moment she entered the classroom, she saw Meng Chuan standing on the podium and asked:
"You're back? I heard the Great Sage Dragon thought highly of you and even passed on a divine skill to you?"

Meng Chuan covered his face and remained silent.

"Master Chen, putting aside the facts, do you think I can practice the Dragon Form Divine Skill of the Imitation Style?"

"Haha, maybe you can do it?"

"."

After the little incident with Meng Chuan, Chen Qiushui stopped teasing him and started teaching.

Today's discussion focuses on advanced theoretical knowledge about the commonalities among different boxing styles.

Even Chen Jing, the master of the Three Limits, listened with great interest.

Meng Chuan was also immersed in the learning atmosphere and didn't realize how quickly time flew by.

As his comprehension and martial arts understanding improved, coupled with his experience with the [Battle Soul] trait and its profound knowledge of the past and present, he gained insights into its application.

It doesn't sound obscure at all now.

On the pulpit.

Although Chen Qiushui's voice was soft, it traveled through the air and accurately reached the ears of every student in the Grandmaster Class:
"As students in the Master Class, as long as you are not eliminated, you will definitely come into contact with divine skills and unique techniques in the future."

But before that, one must learn from the strengths of all schools, study all kinds of skills, and learn from the ordinary and true martial arts of one's own school, and even read all kinds of techniques.

Within this vast ocean of martial arts, only by accumulating one's own martial arts theory bit by bit can one forge one's own path in the study of divine skills.

Meng Chuan nodded; what Master Chen said was the same as what he had thought.

The "Demonic Seed in the Heart of the Dao" is an exception. For example, if the "Fear Chapter" is integrated into it, the level of the technique will increase by three layers.

Therefore, as long as he continues to integrate the other fragments, he can raise the upper limit of the fundamental chapter's level without having to slowly deduce it through martial arts principles.

However, other divine skills and unique techniques are not like this; they all require forging their own path based on the footsteps of predecessors.

A true martial arts master, like Principal Sui, possesses several divine-level martial arts skills.

Therefore, Meng Chuan was not satisfied with merely cultivating the Dao and planting demonic seeds.

Coming to his senses, he continued listening to Master Chen speak:
As the saying goes, all rivers flow into the sea. Each martial art is like a tributary, until it merges into the river and the sea, thus forging an unparalleled divine skill.

The cultivation of divine skills is like expanding the sea area. Without the addition of these tributaries, how can they be gathered into a vast ocean?

Therefore, every basic martial art you are learning now is a wave that will eventually support your divine skills.

I hope you will all guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and forge ahead with determination. That concludes today's lecture. get out of class dismissed.

After saying that, Chen Qiushui left the classroom, leaving everyone in deep thought.

She's been very busy lately, and she doesn't even have enough time for her own standing meditation.

Chen Qiushui's students were all self-proclaimed geniuses from the Grandmaster Class, who had long yearned for divine skills and unique techniques.

The reason I'm saying all this today is to calm everyone's restless minds.

Martial arts training should not be rushed; one must first gradually accumulate knowledge from ordinary martial arts techniques.

"Meng Chuan did a good job in this regard."

The next day, Huaqing Pool.

When Meng Chuan was practicing the mental cultivation method, he experienced the effects of the Meridian Nourishing Elixir.

He refined it into his body, thus ending his cultivation of the mental technique.

Compared to the previously taken [Qiaojia Lingdan], Runmai Dan focuses on gentle nourishment.

The medicinal power permeated every part of my body like a gentle spring breeze and nourishing rain, penetrating even deeper, stimulating my Dao heart to become exceptionally active.

"Perhaps due to the difference in our bodies, the effect on me seems to be better than described in the pill's instructions, at least 30% stronger than the Qiaojia Ling Pill."

Both types of pills can be effective for 7 to 10 days.

With the blessing of the Qia Jia Ling Dan, continued use of the Run Mai Ling Dan is equivalent to cultivating for more than a week each month.

Very well, Meng Chuan had already made his judgment in his heart.

Eliminate the "Mouth Armor Elixir".

We'll talk about it when we're broke.
Coming to my senses, new life force surged forth.

Meng Chuan manipulated the spray, pouring it onto his muscles and bones, waiting for the next surge of power.

As the cultivation technique progresses to the fourth level, the Demon Seed in the Dao Heart completes each major cycle.

The amount of Qi and blood generated has also increased significantly compared to before.

Now, just by practicing the mental techniques every day, I can gain nearly 20 points of Qi and Blood.

Originally, one could have even gained around thirty points.

However, due to the distribution of benefits from the Dao Heart, nearly one-third of it was lost.

Yes, as the level of cultivation techniques increases, so does one's appetite for Dao.

This is the amount of blood drained after incorporating [Seeds of Fear] and reducing its requirements.

Only then did Meng Chuan truly realize how difficult it had been for his master, Luo Guanyun.
"Master was able to complete the thirteen levels of cultivation by risking his life!"

He estimated that without the integration of new chapters...

When I reach this point, my situation will be only slightly better than my master's.

Without the boost to Qi and blood from martial arts techniques, simply practicing mental cultivation methods would result in a daily decrease in Qi and blood.
Aside from drawing blood, Dao Heart is quite obedient to me.

Meng Chuan was still unhappy with this passive situation.

"Continue to follow the previous plan, focusing on both physical limitations and completing the entire manual."

The former, the Flower of Flesh, has already proven that this is indeed feasible.

At least his Dao Heart is confined within his body, unable to freely enter or leave. Later, through his special abilities, he will gradually refine his ideas, and at that time, he should be able to control this guy.
However, if he wanted to save his master, Meng Chuan still felt that he had to rely on collecting enough cultivation techniques.

After all, his master couldn't break through the limits and obtain these traits that restrained his Dao heart like he could.
As for waiting for the Dao Heart Seed to break through its limits and for him to improve his divine skills, that's probably still a long way off.
After completing his cultivation, it was time for the trial lesson he had agreed upon with Daoist Qi.

A few days ago, Meng Chuan took some time to listen to the other party's public martial arts class.

Although what Master Qi taught were only simple and basic Five Elements boxing techniques.

But it was indeed a very good lecture, and Meng Chuan was able to learn something from it to fill in any gaps in his knowledge.

Today, he plans to ask the other party for advice on the more profound Five Elements martial arts principles, such as the Five Qi and spiritual energy.

I hope to gain something from this.

3pm.

Meng Chuan arrived at the villa where the Three Limits Martial Arts Master stayed, outside the courtyard of Qi Daoren, on the back mountain of Huaqingchi.

"It's not far from Master Dong's house. If I continue to take classes with Daoist Qi, I can even find Master Dong for a couple of drinks after class."

He wasn't addicted to alcohol; he just felt that Mr. Dong Yue was drinking alone and seemed rather lonely.
Come back to your senses.

Just as he was about to knock, the door seemed to sense his arrival and opened automatically.

As Meng Chuan entered the courtyard, a long-lost, vibrant spring atmosphere greeted him.

Outside, snow was falling heavily, but Qi Daoren's courtyard remained lush and green.

This made Meng Chuan marvel.

The courtyard gate was wide open, and on both sides of the bluestone path, various spiritual plants were planted in a certain orientation.

In the center, a gnarled ancient pine tree exhales spiritual mist, its crown faintly forming a Tai Chi pattern.

Meng Chuan was certain that this ancient pine tree must be worth a considerable sum.

In the eyes of martial arts masters specializing in the wood element, it is an absolutely priceless treasure.

He took a deep breath, and the Qi of the Liver Wood element changed on its own.

Like a clear spring flowing into the stomach, one's inner breath involuntarily takes on a dark green hue, and the whole body bursts with vitality and energy.

This is because the wood element's energy is too concentrated in this courtyard.

It's gotten to the point where it comes looking for you even when you don't look for it.

According to the novel, Master Qi's arrangement seemed to be a [Wood Spiritual Energy Array] set up in his courtyard.
Meng Chuan pondered:
"I'll ask Master Qi after class how much it would cost to set it up. If the price is right, I'll get one too."

This is what is called a "treasure land for spiritual practice," similar to the "fire dragon cave" that Principal Yin Tianshou decorated for his office.

Meng Chuan felt that even without practicing wood-based martial arts, he could still succeed in this environment.

His understanding of martial arts will gradually improve as his environment changes.

"Xiao Meng, right? Come in, and remember to change your shoes."

Hearing a sound coming from inside, Meng Chuan snapped out of his daze and pushed open the door to enter.

In the entrance hall, he changed into the new wooden clogs that Master Qi had prepared for him.

When Meng Chuan looked up, he saw that the interior decoration was even more sophisticated.

It's so much better than Old Dong's room full of beer bottles.
On the shoe cabinet is a small round three-legged incense burner, decorated with patterns of Bagua, cranes, snakes and turtles.

It has a simple and solemn appearance, and looks very old; it is an antique.

Meng Chuan guessed that this was because Master Qi had taken all of the family's wealth from the old Taoist temple in the mountains.
The three-legged beast-shaped furnace emitted wisps of smoke and drifted upwards.

The smoke drifted all the way up to the yin-yang fish pattern engraved on the roof, where the smoke added a touch of "Taoist charm".

"Xiao Meng, please sit down first. We'll have one-on-one lessons. I need to understand what you've learned before deciding on the content to teach."

Although I am a novice teacher, I understand the principle of teaching according to aptitude.

"clear."

Meng Chuan thought to himself, "Master Qi is quite professional."
A simple wooden table with an old porcelain vase filled with wild chrysanthemums on it.

Master Qi poured tea into a small porcelain cup and then pushed it to Meng Chuan.

"Try the Taiqing Silver Needle tea from my hometown and see if it suits your taste."

Meng Chuan thanked him and accepted the gift.

"It smells wonderful, it's good tea."

While sipping tea, Meng Chuan sized up the Taoist Qi in front of him.

The other person was dressed in a dark blue thick robe, and his figure was neither thin nor as strong as his own, just right.

He wore a topknot, and his long beard and hair flowed like a waterfall.

If it weren't for the Southwest Associated University badge hanging around his neck, he would be no different from the ancients.

Meng Chuan's gaze swept past Qi Daoren's back, and an exquisite screen came into view.

The patterns carved on it are the same as those on the roof, both being Taoist yin-yang symbols.

But upon closer inspection, there are still some differences.

The white half is engraved with waves, while the black half features a towering tree with only its roots depicted.

Meng Chuan speculated that the corresponding patterns on the screen were likely what Qi Daoren was proficient in.

"Tai Chi, belonging to the Water and Wood elements of the Five Elements."

Noticing Meng Chuan's gaze, Master Qi took a sip of tea and spoke slowly:

"Let me introduce myself first. I am a Xingyi martial arts master who practices both Tai Chi and Five Elements Fist."

Tai Chi primarily cultivates pure Yang and embraces the elixir, and its essence lies in the wood and water elements of the Five Elements.

You see this screen behind me; just like the balance of softness and strength in Tai Chi, wood and water complement each other.

"Been taught a lesson."

Meng Chuan nodded his thanks.

Just based on those two sentences, Master Qi is quite something; he'll definitely get his credits.

"Alright, let's talk about you again. When I came to the UN, you were away on a mission."

But ever since I arrived, your illustrious name has been frequently mentioned. Meeting you today, I can confirm your well-deserved title as the chief disciple.

Meng Chuan repeatedly said he didn't deserve such praise and began to flatter the old Taoist priest in return.

It's all mutual; after all, people elevate each other.

The two chatted and drank tea for a while, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Half an incense stick's time had passed, and then heard Daoist Qi say solemnly:

"I already have a general idea of ​​how to teach, now it's your turn."

Tell me, what do you want to learn from me? Aside from any extraordinary skills I don't know, I can teach you everything.

Qi Daoren's purpose in coming down the mountain to the United University.

Aside from resources, it is also for a higher "martial arts inheritance", that is, the ultimate skills of Xingyi School.

As a master of the Three Limits, even a major Taoist sect like the Wudang Heavenly Master's Mansion would welcome him with a stay.

But it was still from a small temple, and both Taoism and Buddhism value lineage and social standing.

They won't grant him access to the transmission of divine skills and secret techniques as soon as he joins.

Qi Daoren is not far from becoming a Grandmaster. If he wants to receive instruction as soon as he makes progress, the only way is for the Four Directions Alliance to recruit talents without being bound by convention.

Can secret techniques be taught?

Meng Chuan only said these words to himself.

Doing this on the first meeting is inappropriate.
Meng Chuan thought for a moment and said:

"I don't want to learn the boxing techniques, but rather the principles, or rather, how to learn the boxing techniques better."

"What's the point?"

The principle of the Five Elements.
