Martial Arts Crossover: My Wife is the Top Scholar

Chapter 115 The Ten Kings of Hell Investigate the Case Together, But Who Is the King of Hell?

"Xiao Feng, you have such great talent!"

Gu Santong looked at Xiao Feng with a face full of emotion.

Gu Santong was a highly gifted master who considered himself unparalleled in talent, but compared to Xiao Feng, he was somewhat lacking in innate talent, a gap that could not be bridged.

How can height and arm length be compensated for?

Xiao Feng was physically strong and had abundant blood and energy. His innate physical constitution was suitable for body tempering, and his comprehension was exceptional. After listening to Gu Santong's explanation, he immediately understood the true meaning of the divine skill.

The essence of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill lies in alchemy.

Treat yourself as an "inner elixir".

Use "alchemy" to refine "essence, energy, and spirit".

From the outside in, from the external three harmonies to the internal three harmonies, one cultivates the indestructible, invincible, perfectly unified, domineering and powerful Vajra True Qi and Body Protective Yuan Gang.

After mastering the divine skill, the body becomes perfectly integrated and flawless, like a nine-times-refined Dragon-Tiger Golden Elixir, capable of resisting all secret techniques such as acupoint striking, meridian cutting, and energy absorption.

With a thought, one can transform into Vajra, with true energy filling muscles and bones, and essence, energy, and spirit becoming one. Strength and speed increase several times over, and this effect can last for an hour.

Gu Santong advised, "Xiao Feng, your innate talent far surpasses mine. With your current foundation, you can transform in at most six months. You must understand that there is no invincible martial art in the world, and you cannot rely too much on transformation."

"Thank you for your guidance, senior."

"The burden on the body from the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill accumulates gradually, and it can only be used five times in a lifetime. If you use it even once more, your blood vessels will rupture and you will die."

"Can it only be used four times?"

I just said five times!

"The first transformation will definitely be in the secluded training room, not in the face of the enemy. I need to use that transformation to familiarize myself with the surge of power and study martial arts tactics."

"Sigh~~"

Gu Santong gasped.

The claim that the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill has no limit on its use, and that it can only be used five times, is a fabrication by Gu Santong.

One reason is to prevent practitioners from becoming arrogant and complacent, over-relying on transformations, and neglecting their own cultivation.

Secondly, there was a concern that Zhu Wushi would find out about this, and given Zhu Wushi's personality, he would definitely launch a manhunt.

Thirdly, as insurance, if Xiao Feng goes to find Su Xin as promised, Su Xin will tell him the truth; if Xiao Feng breaks his promise, then it can only be used four times.

Gu Santong, known as the Invincible Child, spent his life deceiving people, ghosts, gods, and Buddhas, taking pleasure in lying. Because there was so little information about him in the underworld, he was often more believable.

Zhu Wushi had no doubt about Gu Santong.

Zhu Wushi always believed that the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill could only be practiced by a virgin and could only be used five times in his lifetime.

Therefore, after Zhu Wushi achieved fame and success, he did not try to seize the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill. He always believed that Su Xin was a virgin and was completely deceived by Gu Santong.

That's fair!

Zhu ignored the fact that he had killed someone to practice his martial arts and framed Gu Santong.

Gu Santong deceived people and ghosts, and fooled Zhu Wuxi.

The two ended in a draw.

No one can be "number one in the world".

Xiao Feng returned to his cell to study the secret manuals, while Li Zhaoting returned to the bottom of the Heavenly Prison to listen to Gu Santong explain martial arts.

Gu Santong was a veteran of countless battles and had extensive knowledge. His experience was invaluable. Compared to this, a few individual martial arts secrets were not so precious.

As a notorious villain hated by everyone, Gu Santong had fought with masters from all walks of life and had seen all kinds of weapons and strange weapons. He had a deep understanding of all kinds of martial arts. During his imprisonment, Gu Santong fused all the fist, claw, and leg techniques he had learned in his life into one, creating seven profound martial arts techniques.

Due to the influence of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, the martial arts created by Gu Santong were mainly masculine, with each move being a powerful attack, and he never cared about defense, because he did not need to defend.

In terms of weaponry, it is more suited to long spears and halberds; the swordsmanship is only in its rudimentary form, with only a little inspiration.

What Li Zhaoting needs is inspiration.

The two engaged in a heated discussion about swordsmanship.

The path of a swordsman is mostly about simplifying complexity. The more skillful one's swordsmanship, the simpler the moves become. At the pinnacle of mastery, one can often defeat all techniques with a single sword strike.

Mount Tai Sect's Mount Tai Zong, Dugu Qiubai's Dugu Nine Swords, Yi Jian Sect's Yi Jian Technique, Zhang Danfeng's Nameless Sword Technique, and Cihang Jingzhai's Sword Heart Clarity.

These unique techniques are the swordsmen's summaries, based on their own experience, of the most suitable methods for achieving victory with a single strike.

Some rely on the brain's computing power to force calculations.

Some rely on innate talent, quick wit, and boundless imagination.

Some require extensive experience and broad knowledge.

Some can even replicate the enemy's swordsmanship in battle.

Regardless of the philosophy, at its core, it all boils down to observing weaknesses and attacking them. Swordsmen like Ximen Chuixue followed this path.

Ximen Chuixue's sword has no fixed moves.

Ah Fei's swordsmanship is characterized by speed, ruthlessness, and precision.

Ye Gucheng condensed his life's swordsmanship into a single move.

Yan Shisan used his swordsmanship to create ultimate destruction.

The waves surge like clouds, learning from heaven and earth, wielding emotion as their sword.

Gu Santong had two ideas about swordsmanship.

First, it encompasses everything, transforming one sword into ten thousand swords.

Secondly, it is extremely refined and pure, capable of defeating ten thousand swords with a single strike.

There is no right or wrong between the two paths; they have many intersecting and cyclical nodes that can serve as references for each other.

"When I was young, I practiced swordsmanship, firstly because I loved martial arts, and secondly because I thought swordsmen were very cool, dressed in white like snow, capable of killing with a single stroke, leaving no trace for a thousand miles. That's the way of the martial world!"

Why didn't you continue practicing swordsmanship?

"Because I know the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill."

"Senior, do you know which other experts are in the Heavenly Prison? Are there any other experts?"

"Tch! You're usually so quick-witted, how come you're so stupid now? All the experts from the Heavenly Prison have been thrown here by Zhu Tiedan to test my martial arts!"

"Really not?" "Believe me or not, I'll drain you dry!"

"Speaking of the Absorption Technique, senior, I'm really curious about something. Can the Absorption Technique absorb innate true energy? I practice the Longevity Formula."

"Others may not know, but I can!"

Gu Santong grabbed Li Zhaoting's wrist and used his Absorption Technique to teach Li Zhaoting a lesson. However, he didn't expect that his point of entry was not an acupoint, and the acupoint was moved away.

"Shifting acupoints? A demonic cult's internal cultivation method?"

"I found it in a treasure vault."

"It's almost dawn, you can leave now."

"I have one last question."

"what is the problem?"

"I am proficient in a healing technique, the Longevity Formula, which has a strong healing effect. I wish to heal you. I do not expect to cure you completely, but I hope to extend your life by at least three to five years."

"What's the point of living in this godforsaken place where the sun never shines? It's better to be dead!"

"You cannot die."

"why?"

"Because I haven't found my true self yet."

"Young man, if you were seriously injured and imprisoned in a dungeon for twenty years, turning from a handsome young man into an old, ugly, dirty, and smelly wretch, would you want your confidante to visit you in prison?"

"At least take a look...look at her!"

"Don't worry, I'm not that easy to kill!"

"Senior, you taught my elder brother the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill. I would like to learn part of the transformation technique."

"why?"

"Can partial transformation be..."

Li Zhaoting's tone became increasingly lewd.

Gu Santong spat and cursed the scumbag.

Although Gu Santong's face might be considered that of a playboy with many admirers on others, Gu Santong was a devoted lover who only loved one person in his life.

Even a man can be a hopeless romantic.

I always get particularly excited when certain topics are brought up.

A lewd and cunning laugh emanated from the prison cell.

"You little rascal, I knew you were no good the moment I saw you. You're even better looking than me. I wonder how many innocent girls you're going to ruin. You're not going to teach me anything!"

"You're just jealous of my good looks!"

"Pah! Get out, get out, I won't teach you!"

"I can use this Yin Zhu move to ignore it."

"Hiss~~ Don't think I don't know what you're thinking? Using this against Zhu Wushi, do you want him to laugh himself to death, or do you have some other hobby?"

"Senior, I'm a respectable person!"

"Can't you find someone else to fool?"

"Is there anyone in the prison I could fool?"

"Of course, he is... No! Only I am worth your fooling. I'm scared of you. Listen carefully, I'll only say it once. If you don't remember it, that's your own problem."

Li Zhaoting wanted to continue testing him, but to his surprise, Gu Santong recited the mnemonic directly, so he had to give up and used his photographic memory to imprint the mnemonic in his mind.

……

The Duting Post Station was packed with people.

The Eighth Prince, Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce, Lu Xiaofeng, Tang Zhuquan, Feng Suzhen, Tianxiang, and Xiao Feng are all here to solve the case. A gathering of wise men and a chaotic scene of demons.

The Liao delegation is now headed by a deputy envoy.

The deputy envoy's name was Xiao Jun.

It was during the Pleasure Tower case that Li Zhaoting found a Liao spy who made a deal with Feng Yihan at the Hengshan Conference, handing Xiao Jun over to Grand Tutor Pang.

Grand Tutor Pang released Xiao Jun.

Xiao Jun was a relative of the Xiao family and had a powerful background. He quickly got the opportunity to gain merit by following the delegation. He thought he could get some credit by following the delegation, but unexpectedly, something bad happened again!
Xiao Jun was on the verge of tears!

grandma's!
Why does something always happen when I'm an envoy?
This was not Xiao Jun's first mission to the Song Dynasty.

Several years ago, the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty were negotiating cooperation. The Liao envoy was Xiao Jun. Halfway through the negotiations, the peace money of the Song Dynasty was stolen, and the negotiations collapsed.

Last March, Xiao Jun went to Luzhou as a secret agent to find the Seven Eagles of Chongqing and to retrieve funds from the Paradise Tower. He was captured by Boss Qian and has been imprisoned ever since.

As the deputy envoy, I originally intended to enjoy the fruits of others' labor and curry favor with them, but unexpectedly, my support was cut off. I can only barely muster my energy to discuss cooperation matters.

Xiao Jun roared, "Eighth Prince, you should understand the principle that envoys should not be killed in war between two countries. The Liao envoy died in the capital, and you must give me an explanation."

The Eighth Prince calmly said, "Please be patient, Your Excellency. I have already found the murderer."

"Li Zhaoting? Even a fool knows that Li Zhaoting was framed. You think I'm a child to try and deceive me with something like this? Hmph! Others may be afraid of you, but I, Xiao Jun, am not. I have a thousand troops behind me!"

"I will provide accurate evidence."

"Where's the evidence?"

"Bao Zheng, produce evidence for the messenger!"

The Eighth Prince instructed Bao Zheng to make a deduction.

Bao Zheng stepped forward without hesitation, presenting the traces at the crime scene and the clues he discovered, and simultaneously reasoning from both the perspectives of the martial arts world and the imperial court.

Gongsun Ce and Lu Xiaofeng provide assistance.

Bao Zheng was not very handsome; his skin was extremely dark. However, this was not ugliness, but rather an unusual appearance. His dark face was very reassuring.

He looks like an incorruptible and impartial official.

Who would doubt that Bao Zheng was corrupt and lawless?
That is absolutely impossible!
