All the heavens, starting with Little Li Flying Dagger

Chapter 180 Ignoring the Commander's Words
"I've also heard that some colleges are now researching artificial dantian, transplanting someone else's dantian into their own body, which can hold a lot more internal energy,"

"It's just that when it's inside their stomach, their stomach looks a bit big. They all claim that it's not because they're fat, but because their stomachs are a bit big."

Lu Xiaofeng sighed.

"I completely don't understand these new martial arts styles anymore."

"I am a remnant of the old era, and the new era has no ship to carry me."

All I can say is I wish you success.

Dugu Yihe also raised his cup, shook his head, and said,
"Old-school martial arts are not entirely useless,"

"On the contrary, traditional martial arts are the foundation upon which new martial arts are built. Without a strong foundation of internal energy, many new martial arts are difficult to learn, or remain mere castles in the air."

"Moreover, there are quite a few strong practitioners of traditional martial arts. Take Ye Gucheng's Flying Immortal from Beyond the Heavens, for example; I am not confident in dealing with it."

"I've heard that Young Master Tianji doesn't seem to think much of these new martial arts styles, even though he was involved in the invention of most of them."

"is it?"

"So, Young Master Tianji doesn't practice these interesting martial arts himself?"

Suddenly a voice came.
Lu Xiaofeng and Dugu Yihe's expressions changed slightly, and they stood up almost simultaneously.

Gong Jiu walked in through the doorway, a smile playing on his lips.
That's a real shame.

Lu Xiaofeng was somewhat wary.
They had encountered this "Sword Demon" before. This guy was extremely evil and would kill people at the slightest provocation. He was not someone to be trifled with.

"What are you doing here?"

Lu Xiaofeng had a vague sense of foreboding.

Gong Jiu's face lit up with excitement.

"Of course I've come to seek guidance from Young Master Tianji!"

"Use the new style of martial arts he created!"

Dugu Yihe chuckled.
"The mechanisms of new-style martial arts are not entirely the same as those of old-style martial arts. If you think you can learn it just by looking at it once, you're just daydreaming."

Although the Tianji Tower's motto is that everyone should become a dragon and that martial arts should be universally understood, learning new martial arts also requires certain qualifications. Only core figures recognized by the Tianji Tower can access them.

“Really…”

Gong Jiu gave a strange smile.
"You are so arrogant and complacent, so stagnant, completely unaware that I have already made much more progress. This is..."

One win!

Lu Xiaofeng and Dugu Yihe both changed color at the same time.
The art of mental victory?! How could that be?!
“You are old and frail, suffering from the side effects of the Nine Dragons External Alchemy Method, while I am younger and far more talented than you. This is the second advantage!”

Gong Jiu stepped forward, his aura rising with each step!

Dugu Yihe instantly drew the Wuji Blade, his expression solemn.

"We can't let him speak again!"

The silver bottle is broken!

The blade transformed into a violent wind pressure, pressing down from nowhere. Dugu Yihe's hair stood on end in anger, and his muscles bulged, almost tearing his Taoist robe apart!

As a follower of the new school of martial arts, Dugu Yihe knew that the biggest flaw of the "spiritual victory method" was that the accumulation of "spiritual victory" required a certain amount of time and the user had to speak out about it.

During this process, the practitioner has not yet accumulated enough momentum, and the opponent can completely interrupt it, or even take the opportunity to attack its weaknesses!

"Hahahaha!"

Gong Jiu smiled smugly, and his figure suddenly grew several sizes larger.

Keng!
He actually managed to catch Dugu Yihe's powerful blow with his sword, which shocked the entire Tianji Tower!
Gong Jiu's arms were bulging with veins, forming coils, and his physical strength was not much inferior to Dugu Yihe's!
"It's useless, I can also use your Nine Dragons Technique!"

"I know the martial arts you know, but you don't know the ones I know. That makes three victories!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gong Jiu's aura surged again, and an invisible true energy enveloped him, forcibly forcing Dugu Yihe back half a step!

"Go quickly and call the young master!"

Dugu Yihe didn't turn his head, his expression extremely solemn.

"This guy is weird!"

Actually, even without Dugu Yihe saying it, Lu Xiaofeng had already disappeared long ago.

"To challenge me to a duel while seeking help from others shows a loss of spirit; this is the fourth victory!"

Gong Jiu spoke calmly, his true energy on his sword condensed even more, his figure became like a dragon, and his swordsmanship changed from its previous sinister and evil aura to aggressive and fiery, with a momentum like thunder!

Gong Jiu's martial arts foundation was already stronger than Dugu Yihe's. Now that he has mastered two new martial arts styles, he is undoubtedly like a tiger with wings, and his strength has entered the top three of the weapon ranking!

In just a few moves, he defeated Dugu Yihe, and the force he used was so great that Dugu Yihe felt a sharp pain in his hand!

"Back off."

"This guy's level of 'spiritual victory' is no less than mine."

A figure dressed in white, sword in hand, approached and coldly stared at Gong Jiu.

"You entered my Heavenly Mystery Pavilion alone, fighting one-on-one, outnumbered and outmatched. This is one of my victories!"

Ximen Chuixue pointed his sword at the sky, his sword intent surging forth.
"How boring! Relying on others' power to diminish your own prestige, your purity is too low!"

Gong Jiu's lips parted into a split, and he burst into maniacal laughter.

"This is truly one of my victories!"

Keng!
The two swords clashed, and the force of their impact cracked the surrounding floor tiles!
This is a showdown between two great psychological victory strategies!
"You're just as insecure about yourself as you are about to steal someone else's techniques, and I'm even better at it!"

Ximen Chuixue responded calmly, wielding his sword with a sword aura that soared into the sky!
"This is about taking the essence and discarding the dross!"

"Scholars live, imitators die; I have long surpassed my teachers!"

"I am clearly superior to you!" Gong Jiu's momentum was unstoppable, his sword aura became increasingly chaotic, and a sea of ​​sword energy almost condensed in front of him!
"Humph!"

"My young master is invincible; this is my ultimate victory!"

Ximen Chuixue's expression turned solemn. Behind him, sword energy suddenly condensed into a giant sword in the void, which slashed down from the sky!
Upon hearing the name of the Heavenly Mystery Prince, Gong Jiu's expression changed slightly. His previously unstoppable, wild swordplay faltered, forced back by Ximen Chuixue's overwhelming sword intent.
"Ah"

Gong Jiu suddenly sneered.

"You've never even fought me, how dare you claim to be invincible?!"

"Besides, that's Young Master Tianji, not you!"

"To be subservient to others is your greatest defeat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang resounded!
Ximen Chuixue's figure crashed into a group of tables and chairs, barely managing to stand up, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

Despite being at a disadvantage, Ximen Chuixue curled the corners of his mouth and looked at Gong Jiu with a hint of amusement.

"It wasn't a great victory for me."

Gong Jiu sneered upon hearing this, and was about to retort when his expression suddenly changed.

He pulled back and thrust, aiming for his own back!
Keng!
How did you learn the "spiritual victory technique"?

Wang Gan appeared, clamping the sword between his two fingers, his eyes filled with curiosity as he looked at Gong Jiu.

This "spiritual victory technique" was originally a martial art he created out of a bit of a perverse sense of humor.

It was originally just a conjecture, and the difficulty of practicing it is extremely high. The first step is to deceive oneself and hypnotize oneself with mind control techniques.

So far, apart from Ximen Chuixue, who has an extremely strong will, being able to learn it, even Wang Gan himself cannot learn it without the system's stat allocation.

But Wang Gan remembered that Gong Jiu was clearly a self-destructive psychopath, and definitely not a man of strong will. How did he manage to get through the most difficult hurdle of 'self-deception'?

Gong Jiu's expression changed slightly. He was about to speak and use his mental victory technique, but found himself at a loss for words!

Because he realized that when he faced the Heavenly Mystery Prince directly, the other party was almost invincible, leaving him unable to find a way in for a while!

"you"

Wang Gan shook his head.

"It's useless. I'm the founder of the 'spiritual victory method,' of course I know that,"

"If you can't even get past the hurdle of self-deception, the cultivation technique won't work."

"Even 'self-deception' must be based on existing facts. If self-deception fails, it may even have side effects and cause the technique to backfire."

Gong Jiu's expression immediately turned panicked, and his eyes frantically scanned Wang Gan's head and shoulders.

Impossible! There must be something that makes him better!

Physique, martial arts skills, age, aptitude, influence, background, size.
"Have it!"

Gong Jiu suddenly burst into laughter.

"I'm obviously better looking than you."

boom!
Wang Gan quietly withdrew his hand, looked at the fallen figure opposite him, and sighed softly.

"I already said that lying will have side effects."

"You just won't believe me."

Lu Xiaofeng watched from the side, his lips twitching.
Gong Jiu probably didn't die because she lied, but because she told the truth.

Kill the supporting character Gong Jiu to change the 'Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens' storyline and gain 1000 Destiny Points.

"Speaking of which..."

"Where did Gong Jiu learn all of Tianji Tower's martial arts?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Gong Jiu's corpse with some curiosity.
"It should be the old man Wu Ming."

Wang Gan was not surprised.

These new martial arts styles look impressive, but in reality, they were all just things Wang Gan did casually, and did not exceed the limits of this world.

The greatest effect of the Nine Dragons Great Technique is to quickly create a master of external physical training, or to enable an old and frail martial artist to maintain physical strength, but it cannot surpass the world's top external physical training power.

The "spiritual victory method" has greater potential, as it involves some mental power, but the world of Gu Long emphasizes the cultivation of 'mental power'.

Even psychological victory needs to be carried out according to the basic law. Wang Gan tested it and found that it could only increase his own strength by about 30% to 40%.

Moreover, for a supermodel like Wang Gan, any improvement would be negligible.

With Wu Ming's talent, he only needs to make a slight move to understand the principles behind these martial arts.

"I'm only curious about one other thing."

How did Wu Ming teach Gong Jiu the art of mental victory?

Wang Gan looked intently at Gong Jiu's corpse.

The art of mental victory is the most difficult to master among all new martial arts styles. Only Ximen Chuixue mastered it. Gong Jiu's rapid mastery of it clearly did not come from a conventional, step-by-step approach.

Lu Xiaofeng's expression suddenly changed, as if he had seen something.

He bent down and took apart Gong Jiu's hair bun, and was shocked to find several pinholes on the top of her head!
Wang Gan was also somewhat surprised.
"He injected medicine into Gong Jiu's head?!"

"interesting!"

Wang Gan's lips curled up, and he began to look forward to seeing just how far Wu Ming, with his talent, had progressed in developing the new martial art.

Maybe it will really surprise him.
