The destiny of all heavens begins in the Red Chamber

Unexpectedly, his master called him over and directly gave him the secret manual of "Huashan Hunyuan Gong".

My heart was completely overwhelmed with joy, and I didn't hear my master and mistress's instructions at all.

Well, Yue Buqun was quite displeased with his behavior, but he didn't say much.

There was no other way; after all, Linghu Chong was raised by Yue Buqun and possessed exceptional talent. Until he betrayed his sect, Yue Buqun could only continue to cultivate him as the sect's successor.

Linghu Chong felt the pressure, but old habits die hard.

The environment of the Huashan Sect was too comfortable; his personality was not suited to staying in one place to cultivate.

To be honest, Linghu Chong is the least enthusiastic protagonist in Jin Yong's martial arts stories when it comes to practicing martial arts, and he might even be less enthusiastic than Wei Xiaobao.

In the later stages of the story, his ability to dominate the battlefield was due to the Nine Swords of Dugu and the Star Absorbing Technique, as well as the help of the Yi Jin Jing.

To be honest, Linghu Chong's internal energy cultivation definitely took a shortcut.

Compared to Yuan Chengzhi, who later mastered the "Huashan Hunyuan Gong" to perfection, Linghu Chong might not be able to defeat him.

At least Yuan Chengzhi still has room for improvement, while Linghu Chong is basically limited to the acquired realm, with no possibility of breaking through to the innate realm. The Star Absorbing Skill plus the Smiling Proud Wanderer version of the Yi Jin Jing is still significantly inferior to the Northern Darkness Divine Skill.

In the world of Jin Yong's martial arts novels, it was only during the period of "The Flying Fox of Snowy Mountain" that it became completely impossible to cultivate internal energy; before that, internal energy was king.

Linghu Chong was able to leave his junior brothers far behind and establish a dominant position by relying on his extraordinary talent and the advantages he accumulated over several years of training.

Unfortunately, his lack of effort doesn't mean that his juniors won't work hard and strive for improvement.

Let's not even mention Laudenau. He's too old and burdened with worldly affairs. Unless he cultivates a demonic art like the "Star Absorbing Technique," his strength is basically fixed, around the late stage of a third-rate martial artist.

However, Liang Fa, Gao Genming, and Shi Daizi have been cultivating very diligently in the past two years.

Previously, Linghu Chong was their role model, and they were naturally influenced by his lazy personality, so they were not very enthusiastic about practicing martial arts.

There's no way around it. That's why people say that the Huashan sect is too comfortable and needs a good role model senior brother to lead the way.

But ever since they participated in the martial arts exchange tournament organized by the Beggars' Sect, they have had a great eye-opening experience and witnessed the prowess of their peers from the outside world, which has shaken them to their core.

Only then did they realize that their senior brother, whom they thought was incredibly tall and mighty, was nothing compared to these outstanding peers, and couldn't even squeeze into the top sixteen.

While deeply shocked, I naturally wanted to know how these outstanding peers cultivated and improved themselves in private, as their strength was simply too great.

Such information is not hard to find out!

As a result, these 'ordinary' disciples of the Huashan Sect learned about the cultivation of their peers, and they were all stunned.

Across twelve two-hour periods of the day, aside from eating, sleeping, and necessary relaxation, one is basically in a state of cultivation.

They were either meditating to cultivate their internal strength, honing their external martial arts skills in the training ground, or seeking advice on various martial arts issues from their peers and elders.

It can be said that they have demonstrated diligence and hard work to the fullest extent!

Moreover, they also learned that once these peers reached a certain level of skill, they would actively participate in bounty missions to accumulate more experience in the martial arts world.

It can be said that these outstanding peers have shown almost no signs of slacking off in improving their martial arts skills and personal strength.

According to them, the competition among fellow disciples within the sect is fierce, and the disciples of the Beggars' Sect and Hengshan Sect are not to be underestimated either. If they don't work hard, they will be exposed during martial arts exchanges.

Every official disciple who can be accepted into the Wudang, Hengshan, and Beggars' Sects is proud, confident, and simply cannot tolerate being inferior to others in martial arts.

Unlike Linghu Chong, the senior disciple of Mount Hua, who, even after losing a martial arts contest, still looked cheerful and indifferent, it's hard to know what he was thinking.

Having only participated in one martial arts exchange tournament, Liang Fa, Gao Genming, Shi Daizi, and the recently joined disciples have all diligently and honestly practiced basic swordsmanship and internal energy cultivation.

In addition, Ning Zhongze has been stationed at the Huashan Mountain gate for many years, so when they have doubts during martial arts training, they can get answers immediately, and their internal strength and cultivation have improved quite a bit.

The problem is that I've fallen too far behind in my studies; how could I possibly make up for it in just two years?

Therefore, in the internal martial arts competition of the Huashan Sect, these diligent disciples were still no match for their senior brother Linghu Chong, but their progress was also visible to the naked eye.

At the beginning, he could only last less than ten moves against Linghu Chong, but in the most recent martial arts sparring match, he was able to fight his senior brother for more than fifty moves.

The three of them had all reached the third-rate level of martial arts!

Senior Brother Linghu Chong, with his carefree and easygoing personality, didn't seem to care much about the situation. He continued to do as he pleased, appearing lazy and indifferent to everything.

However, the three fellow disciples, who had worked hard for a long time, were very excited and positive.

Based on their cultivation progress, they might be able to reach the second-rate level in the martial arts world in one go. At that time, they might be able to keep up with their senior brother, or even surpass him.

The only one who hasn't changed is Lu Hou'er, who has a close relationship with Linghu Chong.

For some reason, this guy has become quite devoted to Linghu Chong.

As can be seen from the story of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Linghu Chong was even willing to go against his master and mistress.

No one could understand his specific thoughts. In short, this guy blindly imitated Linghu Chong and was very lazy in practicing martial arts. As a result, his strength naturally remained at the entry-level in the martial arts world.

Ironically, this guy, relying on his close relationship with the senior brother, doesn't really think much of the other four senior brothers, acting as if he's something special.

Laudenau and he had little in common, and the other three senior brothers were also very low-key. As long as you didn't offend them, they would just go with Lu Hou'er.

That's why Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze aren't good martial arts teachers.

The progress Liang Fa and his team made was evident, and their calm personalities and positive attitudes made them truly promising talents, yet no one noticed it in time.

Almost all the attention and focus was on the exceptionally talented Linghu Chong.

In addition, Yue Lingshan, who was only six or seven years old, and Lu Hou'er, who had a lively personality, also attracted their attention, and they did not notice the abnormality of the other three disciples.

Fortunately, Liang Fa and his companions were good-natured and full of gratitude towards their master and mistress; otherwise, something really might have happened.

Fortunately, the chivalrous beggar Jia Huan introduced the Huashan Sect's divine skills in the next issue of "Martial Arts Monthly," which prevented them from having any mental issues.

For no other reason, Linghu Chong didn't spread the word that he had received the "Huashan Hunyuan Gong" from his master, but Lu Hou'er was a big mouth.

Upon learning that his senior brother Linghu Chong could switch to cultivating the "Huashan Hunyuan Gong," he was overjoyed as if he himself had cultivated it, and immediately boasted about it to the other disciples.

It has to be said, this move is quite provocative.

Even the scheming second disciple, Lao Denuo, felt that his master, Yue Buqun, was too unfair.

Liang Fa, Shi Daizi, and Gao Genming were naturally even more displeased!

Their internal strength cultivation was actually no worse than that of their senior brother, Linghu Chong.

The reason he couldn't win the duel was actually because the gap in swordsmanship was too large.

Just like Jia Huan, who had just transmigrated, he possessed a third-rate level of combat power in the martial arts world simply by relying on his superb Taizu Long Fist and various simple basic staff techniques.

In short, apart from Lu Hou'er, all the other Huashan disciples who felt they were not bad at all were jealous. Whenever they saw their senior brother Linghu Chong's lazy appearance, they couldn't help but feel sour.

Neither Yue Buqun nor Ning Zhongze noticed these developments immediately.

That's why I say the couple aren't qualified teachers.

Fortunately, the latest issue of "Martial Arts Monthly" calmed the discontent of the Huashan disciples, otherwise they would have faced all sorts of trouble in the future.

Since Jia Huan started with his own cultivation of the "Hun Yuan Gong", the subsequent content would naturally not be bad, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of all his efforts?

The Five Mountains Sword Sects are undoubtedly the top sects in the martial arts world over the past century, and Jia Huan naturally wants to capitalize on their popularity. The Huashan Sect is undoubtedly the most promising one.

In fact, when Jia Huan was planning to introduce the Huashan Sect's divine skills, he specifically wrote to Yue Buqun to mention it. Whether Yue Buqun was willing or not was not his concern.

In fact, Yue Buqun did not reply with a letter of objection, which meant he tacitly approved.

As a result, this issue of "Martial Arts Monthly," which introduced the extraordinary skills of the Huashan School, became a sensation in the martial arts world once again.

There's no other reason than that the Huashan Sect possesses far too many martial arts skills at the divine level.

Let's not even talk about the "Purple Cloud Divine Skill". It is the most famous of the Nine Skills of Mount Hua and the special cultivation method of the Mount Hua Sect Leader. It is definitely a divine internal energy cultivation method in the martial arts world.

There's not much to say about the "Huashan Hunyuan Gong," as it shares the same origin as the "Hunyuan Gong" practiced by the chivalrous beggar Jia Huan, and is naturally also a divine-level cultivation method.

To the surprise of all readers of "Martial Arts Monthly", the chivalrous beggar Jia Huan actually believed that the basic introductory mental cultivation method of the Huashan Sect was also a kind of divine skill!

Is this a joke? When did divine skills become so prevalent that they can be associated with everything?

However, Jia Huan's subsequent explanation was supported by ample evidence and was so convincing that it left the readers speechless.

The Huashan Basic Mind Method originated from the Quanzhen School of Taoism during the Southern Song Dynasty!

At that time, the Quanzhen Sect was known as the number one sect in the world, and it was the undisputed leader in both the government and the martial arts world.

According to the records preserved by the Beggars' Sect, Shaolin Temple was in a slump at that time, and had even closed its doors to the outside world and stopped dealing with martial arts affairs. Its influence was great but not strong.

The cultivation methods of the Quanzhen School were very simple, and they were created by Wang Chongyang, who was known as the number one master in the world and a Taoist master of innate level.

The disciples of the Quanzhen Sect practice the Quanzhen True Method and the Quanzhen Sword Technique. It is said that continuous practice can lead to the innate realm.

That's right, the Huashan School's "Basic Sword Techniques" and "Basic Internal Energy Cultivation Methods" are derived from the "Quanzhen Sword Techniques" and "Quanzhen Inner Strength Methods"!

The founder of the Huashan School was Hao Datong, Guangningzi, one of the Seven Masters of Quanzhen at that time!

Similarly, the fundamental techniques of the Huashan School are basically derived from the Quanzhen School's Quanzhen Manual and Quanzhen Swordplay!

Jia Huan explained very clearly that all of this information was found in the old documents stored by the Beggars' Sect, and was all recorded by the sect's predecessors.

Such an origin naturally has a 60-70% reliability!

Once here, Jia Huancai focused on introducing the Huashan School's "Basic Sword Techniques" and "Basic Internal Energy Cultivation Methods"!

As time went by, the Huashan Sect's situation was completely different from that of the Quanzhen Sect back then, and their needs and coping methods were naturally different as well.

At its peak, the Quanzhen Sect was virtually unchallenged in the martial arts world, so it didn't need to worry too much about worldly affairs. Its disciples could focus on cultivating their minds and practicing martial arts. The Huashan Sect, however, couldn't do that.
