A man stands before the heavens, his sword emerges from the Emei Mountains.

As the clouds parted and the morning sun shone red on the mountains, a sense of desolation crept into the forests at the mountainside and above.

Yellow leaves sway in the autumn wind, some breaking off from the branches and twisting and turning in the air, lingering endlessly.

It was a month after Chen Yu began practicing the "Emei Nine Yang Skill".

Yang An's martial arts talent is outstanding. He has mastered the "Absolute Sword" to a considerable degree. Miejue, through Jingxuan, has also allowed him to practice the "Extinction Sword". Jingxuan is still in the outer sect, but now the martial arts atmosphere in the outer sect has been completely renewed since Chen Yu was promoted to a personal disciple. Even the disciples who used to be lazy and not diligent have become hardworking.

The status of the outer sect suddenly seemed to have risen a notch.

Yang An also went down the mountain and gave instructions to the owners of horse shops, merchant houses, medicine shops, and boat guilds that had ties with the Emei Sect, telling them to pay close attention to unfamiliar faces entering Emei County.

Under the leadership of Yang An and Jing Xuan, the inner and outer sects of the Emei Sect were managed in an orderly manner.

After meeting Su Baichuan, Abbess Miejue went into seclusion, racking her brains to create a combined sword technique using the "Nine Palaces Dragon Stroll" and the Emei Sword Technique. Chen Yu is now practicing on his own, diligently cultivating his internal energy, and making rapid progress.

When Miejue explained the "Emei Nine Yang Skill" that day, she repeatedly mentioned that to practice this skill, one must concentrate the mind and enter the primordial state, and that mental tranquility is the foundation. Chen Yu had a jade ruyi, which was no problem for him at all.

Relying on the Jade Ruyi, which functions similarly to the Cold Jade Bed, one can achieve the cultivation results of an inner sect disciple in about a month in just one month, and at this time, one's inner strength is already quite advanced.

At the hour of Yin (3-5 AM), as the yang energy begins to rise, Chen Yu silently recited the Nine Yang Heart Method, using his mind to guide the qi.

call……

puff……

After taking a medicinal pill, Chen Yu expelled the old and inhaled the new, his chest heaving continuously, and the warm and gentle internal energy flowed along his meridians toward the Yang Qiao Meridian and Yin Qiao Meridian.

Wherever the internal energy flows, it is as if the iron is forged by a fine fire, tempering the rough blank to remove impurities, making the muscles and tendons tough and solid.

At midway through the day, Chen Yu circulated his qi and blood, using the effects of the medicinal pills to strengthen his qi and blood, and condensed several streams of internal energy. This internal energy merged with the internal energy that had previously circulated through the meridians, and circulated along the meridians, starting from the Shenmai acupoint on the outer side of the heel of the foot, ascending from behind the ankle, passing through the outer side of the lower limb to the abdomen, along the chest, through the shoulder, the outer side of the neck, up to the corner of the mouth, reaching the inner corner of the eye, and finally falling into the Fengchi acupoint at the back of the neck.

After about half an hour, the Nine Yang Internal Force surged from the Shenmai acupoint to the Juliao acupoint, and then through the twelve major acupoints of the Yangqiao Meridian, like autumn wind shaking fallen leaves.

This meridian is open.

Chen Yu pressed on, and an hour later, he used the Nine Yang Internal Force to open up six major acupoints on the Yin Qiao Meridian.

Two dragons embrace a pillar, their two veins opening simultaneously.

Chen Yu was overjoyed, feeling that the tendons in his legs were like bowstrings, strong and flexible. Following the principles of the Emei Light Body Technique, he relaxed his muscles and bones, using his waist as the axis and his legs as the bow, and leaped into the air.

The azure figure soared ten feet into the air, spun once in the void, shifted several feet, and landed.

"Although I am still far from the highest level of 'Three Turns of the Dragon', it is no longer a problem to cross walls and climb onto ordinary houses." Chen Yu said this, his body swaying like a monkey, flipping and leaping, moving left and right, and traveling all the way to the mountain forest where he found Huang Jing. He dug up a few Huang Jing roots, returned to the courtyard, and began to practice the "Wind and Thunder Hand" that he obtained from the stone cave in Qingcheng Mountain.

……

"Junior brother."

While Chen Yu was practicing his martial arts, Ji Xiaofu's voice suddenly rang out from outside the courtyard.

"Please come in, Senior Sister." Chen Yu finished her practice, grabbed a towel to wipe the sweat from her face, and after a creak, the wooden door was pushed open, and Ji Xiaofu walked in.

Since Chen Yu began practicing the "Emei Nine Yang Skill" alone, he had never seen the other party. He noticed that she had become quite haggard. He knew the reason: the scene at Ziyun Village and his own later words had provoked Ji Xiaofu.

"Please have a seat, senior sister."

"Junior brother, please don't be so polite. Master has emerged from seclusion and summoned you."

"You need to take the exam."

"Junior brother is diligent and exceptionally talented; he will certainly not disappoint Master."

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Master has high expectations, so I dare not be negligent. The Five Immortals Sect may make a comeback at any time. I must avenge my family's grudge, so I must study hard and keep improving."

Ji Xiaofu quickly comforted him, "Junior brother, don't think too much about it. Your parents in heaven would be very pleased to see your achievements today."

"Thank you, senior sister. The past is just an experience, not a burden or a shackle. I will learn from this painful experience and strive to improve myself."

Ji Xiaofu paused for a moment, her mind drifting back to her past, lost in thought.

"What's wrong, Senior Sister?"

"It's nothing," Ji Xiaofu said, regaining her composure. "Let's go."

"it is good."

The two were discharged from the hospital and went straight to Woyun Nunnery.

……

The setting sun returns to the mountains and sea, and birds fly into the dense forest.

Chen Yu and Ji Xiaofu arrived at Woyun Nunnery.

"Yu'er, Xiaofu is back?"

"Greetings, Master."

The two bowed in unison.

No need for formalities.

Ding Minjun was also there. Chen Yu went up to her and said, "Greetings, Senior Sister Ding."

"Junior brother, please don't be so polite." With Miejue in front of him, Ding Minjun dared not show any extra expression.

Even Miejue wouldn't let Ji Xiaofu leave, and asked Chen Yu, "I told you that I would test your skills at intervals."

"Please enlighten me, Master."

"Today, I'll observe Yu'er's martial arts skills; she'll give it her all." This implies that she's not limited to any particular style of martial arts.

"understood."

"Minjun, Xiaofu, you two should also take a good look."

"I understand, disciple."

"bring it on."

The wind swept over the courtyard wall, swirling under the eaves, and the old, leafy trees inside rustled, shaking down a yellow leaf.

Chen Yu moved swiftly, like an arrow released from a bow, striking towards Abbess Miejue's abdomen with the force of a spear.

Abbess Miejue's eyes lit up.

"what……"

Ji Xiaofu was surprised, but felt that her junior brother's speed and agility had increased several times compared to the battle of Ziyun Village.

"Junior Brother, could it be that you have tempered and opened the Yang Qiao Meridian and Yin Qiao Meridian?" Ji Xiaofu was overjoyed when she realized what was happening. "Junior Brother's talent is truly unparalleled. I was taught by my father and practiced martial arts since I was a child. After entering the mountain sect, my master taught me by word and deed, and it took me several years to temper and open both meridians. My master has a worthy successor."

Ji Xiaofu quickly regained her composure and looked around the room.

Ding Minjun sighed inwardly, "His body is as swift as an arrow, and his Achilles tendon is as strong as a slingshot. How could he have opened up the Yangqiao Meridian in less than a year since he came up the mountain? Master must have given him a miraculous medicine."

Chen Yu's fist had already struck a phantom image. In the instant he rushed forward, fallen leaves on the ground splashed up like lotus flowers. However, Miejue appeared beside him. In the instant his right hand swung out, his thumb and forefinger hooked together, and the remaining three fingers, shaped like orchids, pointed towards the "Quchi" acupoint where Chen Yu's upper arm and forearm met.

Chen Yu suddenly lowered his body, twisted his waist, and swept his leg. This move originated from the leg techniques he learned when he was a stuntman, but he also imitated the move of Abbess Miejue in Hengyang, in which she spun her body, exerted force on both feet, and in the blink of an eye swept away several disciples of the Green Bamboo Gang like autumn wind shaking fallen leaves.

"Okay, it has some of the spirit of 'Whirlwind Sweep Leaf Kick'."

Chen Yu chuckled inwardly; this martial art from Peach Blossom Island had been passed down by Guo Xiang.

When the sweeping leg missed, Chen Yu swung his body, his left arm suddenly extending and retracting, striking the "Zhongfu" and "Yunmen" acupoints on the Taiyin Lung Meridian of the Extinction Hand. At the same time, his right palm swiftly slashed down towards his ribs. The two moves were executed almost simultaneously. It was one of the killing moves of the "Snowflake Piercing Cloud Palm," "Dragon Removing Armor."

"Well done." Miejue praised, her palms forming two semi-circles, smoothly enveloping Chen Yu's attack.

"Master has used the Four Symbols Palm," Ji Xiaofu said. She didn't know this palm technique, but she had seen Jingxuan use it before, so she recognized it. She couldn't help but worry for Chen Yu, fearing that he wouldn't be able to withstand more than a few moves.

This palm strike, square within a circle, completely enveloped the attack. Knowing that Extinction was going to test his internal strength, Chen Yu changed his move, using his mind to guide his qi, and unreservedly channeled his internal strength from his meridians to his palms, surging the qi to his Yongquan acupoints, and pushing it out with all his might.
