Playing with fantasy beasts in the martial arts world

Chapter 105 Customized Ultimate Technique (Please Subscribe)

"Excellent! Excellent! Truly a gifted individual, and quick-witted as well!" Huang Yaoshi stroked his beard, beaming with joy.

He has always admired geniuses and despised idiots. As long as someone is smart enough, their character is not his primary consideration.

So, to avoid Guo Jing, he even abandoned Peach Blossom Island and spent years away from home, wandering the world.

When she met Yang Guo, she simply liked him and immediately taught him the Peach Blossom Island's ultimate skill, the Finger Flicking Divine Skill.

He even considered taking Ouyang Ke, a notorious lecher, as his son-in-law.

Cha Nan said, "It's all thanks to the excellent teachings of our ancestors!"

"However, I have a question, and I wonder if the Ancestral Master can enlighten me."

Huang Yaoshi laughed and said, "Tell me your story, and I will answer your questions!"

Cha Nan said, "I wonder if the Ancestor has a unique skill that combines body techniques, leg techniques, and lightness skills? I think that if we are going to learn and practice, we should pursue the best! Otherwise, how can we show the glory of Peach Blossom Island when we go out into the world?"

This is to increase Huang Yaoshi's strength.

As the saying goes, it's better to torment others than to waste your own life.

Since Huang Yaoshi has such a strong fatherly air about him, he must have some good stuff on hand!
Otherwise, where would they get their confidence?
At this moment, the smile that had been spreading across Huang Yaoshi's face froze. Cheng Ying, who had been listening quietly without saying a word, also looked serious, her eyes filled with question marks as she looked at Cha Nan.

Body techniques, leg techniques, and lightness skills are all integrated into one, and it must be a unique skill.
What are you talking about in your sleep?

These three may seem similar, but in reality, they each have their own biases, approaches, and solutions. Whether it's the energy flow route, the way of raising qi, or the choice of foothold, the differences in practice are enormous.

For example, the key to movement techniques is not speed, but agility and a specific way of moving in advance. Taking Lingbo Weibu as an example, it is based on the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching, and the user moves and changes positions according to the hexagram positions in a specific order.

In a sense, it is closer to close-up magic, employing many deceptive methods of vision, senses, and perception to enter the opponent's blind spot and achieve an unexpected evasion effect.

Lightness skill, of course, emphasizes speed, height, and reaction ability. It requires using pure energy to control impure energy, making one's body exceptionally light, like a feather. Superior lightness skills can achieve basic riding the wind and moving with the wind. With just a little bit of leverage, one can shuttle between grass and trees and above lakes. A gust of wind blows a feather, and one can use the force to ascend to the heavens.

Leg techniques aim to strike the opponent directly, with the ultimate goal of creating effective damage. They emphasize attack efficiency and power. Even agile leg techniques are essentially about offense. This means that turbid energy outweighs pure energy, and in terms of the essential choice of energy flow path, they completely contradict the principles of lightness skills and body techniques.

It can be said that from the perspective of some basic skills, the three can be interconnected, but at a certain stage, they become three divergent paths. Even if there is some interaction occasionally, they are still going in opposite directions on a large scale.

Those with high martial arts skills can seamlessly connect various martial arts techniques, such as using body movements to connect light footwork, and then leg techniques.

However, there is still a certain conversion process involved; it is by no means a three-in-one system that can generate three effects simultaneously.

"There is absolutely no such martial art in the world!" Cheng Ying said, taking the initiative to speak, fearing that her master would be embarrassed.

She's still 'young' and inexperienced; isn't she ashamed to say such things?

However, Cha Nan simply smiled and shook her head at her, then continued to look at Huang Yaoshi, waiting for his formal answer.

As Cha Nan said, is there a unique skill that combines leg techniques, lightness skills, and body techniques?

Of course the answer is yes!

Isn't that the Wind God Leg?
Moreover, the Wind God Leg can be combined with the Cloud Dispelling Palm and the Heavenly Frost Fist once more to form the Three-Part Returning Origin Qi.

So, Cha Nan really wasn't making things difficult for Lao Huang. Cha Nan wasn't demanding that Lao Huang replicate the Wind God Leg technique for him; he'd be satisfied as long as Lao Huang could create a martial art that was roughly comparable! Hehe!
"Ying'er! Don't speak too bluntly!"

"As far as I know... such martial arts do exist!" Huang Yaoshi was a respectable man, so he couldn't say anything unseemly, much less pretend that it didn't exist when he knew it did.

"I know someone who is known in the martial arts world as one of the Four Great Constables. He is called 'Chasing Life.' His lightness skill, leg techniques, and body techniques are all integrated into one, reaching a level that is difficult for ordinary people to reach. He is also considered to be a person with an ethereal martial body." Huang Yaoshi continued to add examples.

After saying that, Huang Yaoshi looked at Cha Nan seriously again: "Such martial arts have seized the secrets of heaven and cannot be learned by ordinary people. Even with your talent, if you accidentally practice it incorrectly, it will damage your meridians and cut off your path!"

Cha Nan was naturally fearless and said boldly, "When an opportunity comes, you must seize it. Hesitating and looking back is not the way of a man. If Master has a method, just give it to me!"

Huang Yaoshi nodded and said, "Wait a while, I need to collect more lightness skills, leg techniques, and body techniques. I haven't considered this path carefully before, but since you have such ambition, how can I, as your grandmaster, not help you?"

Cha Nan smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandmaster! I do have a lightness skill here, which is quite excellent. I can give it to you for reference!"

At this moment, he was referring to Yun Zhonghe's lightness skill, which was, after all, a unique lightness skill. Cha Nan had long ago obtained it from Yun Zhonghe, but had never mastered it.

As for the lightness skills and movement techniques in the Nine Yin Manual, there's no need to use them for Huang Yaoshi to laugh at.

He must have known it long ago.

After Cha Nan recited Yun Zhonghe's lightness skill "Hongfei Mingming" from memory, Huang Yaoshi also showed surprise.

"This lightness skill is amazing! Although it's not the best for short-distance maneuvering, it's top-notch for long-distance speed!"

To receive such praise from Huang Yaoshi, Yun Zhonghe's lightness skill must indeed be quite remarkable.

Cha Nan said, "This is a light-body skill that was seized from a lecherous thief."

Huang Yaoshi immediately understood that those who could become lecherous thieves either had excellent lightness skills or were proficient in disguise. They always had some trump cards to protect their lives, otherwise they would easily be beaten to death.

In fact, most of the people with the best lightness skills in the martial arts world are lecherous thieves and petty thieves.

For example, the famous thief Chu Liuxiang... was actually a thief!
"Alright, I've memorized your lightness skill."

"Wait ten days, and I'll create a rough draft for you to practice with. If you can't even learn the initial draft, then there's no point in continuing!" Huang Yaoshi wasn't completely controlled by Cha Nan; he had his own methods.

With his accumulated knowledge and wisdom, he could easily create a martial art that didn't pursue great power but simply combined the three elements.

However, the shift in energy flow is still unavoidable.

This also puts the pressure back on Cha Nan; if he can't do it, then there's no point in talking about anything else.

But if it were possible... Huang Yaoshi would choose to fulfill it even if it meant exhausting his old life.

This has nothing to do with any friendship; it's entirely due to his arrogance.

If there were such a person who could make a name for himself throughout the heavens with the martial arts he created, then even in death he could rest in peace.

Those who claim to be indifferent to fame and fortune often spend half their lives burdened by empty reputations.

Huang Yaoshi... he can't change!
