Wang Cheng, holding the Bodhi Token given to him by the old monk Kongchen, ran happily to the Bodhi Courtyard, hoping to learn the Yi Jin Jing. The old monks guarding the Yi Jin Jing were quite surprised and examined the Bodhi Token in Wang Cheng's hand.

It was found to be genuine. The Bodhi Token is a privilege token issued by Shaolin Temple to a very small number of monks of the highest seniority.

The purpose was to train martial arts masters for the Shaolin Temple. Once someone passed the test of these senior monks, the monks were overjoyed.

They would then give each of their disciples or juniors a Bodhi Token, which allowed them to learn three Shaolin martial arts techniques, including the Shaolin treasure, the Yi Jin Jing.

Moreover, the Bodhi Token is exclusively owned by Shaolin Temple, and it is absolutely impossible for outsiders to imitate it.

Moreover, these Bodhi tokens are extremely precious, carried by senior monks of very high seniority, making them very difficult for outsiders to steal.

The old monks examined Wang Cheng's Bodhi Token and found it to be genuine, and also confirmed that Wang Cheng had been accepted as a disciple by the highly respected monk Kong Chen of Shaolin Temple.

They knew this, so they followed the rules and took the Yi Jin Jing out of the secret compartment with great care. The secret compartment of the Yi Jin Jing had three layers of mechanisms.

Those who don't know the secret can't open it at all. Wang Cheng also personally witnessed the old monk guarding the scriptures taking the Yi Jin Jing out of the secret compartment.

Wang Cheng was glad that he had joined the Shaolin Temple directly and even became a disciple of a highly respected senior monk. Otherwise, he might have wanted to steal the Yi Jin Jing (Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic).

You have to infiltrate the Shaolin Temple for several months, and even then, success isn't guaranteed.

Wang Cheng received the Yi Jin Jing from the old monk, who allowed him to observe it within the Shaolin Temple for three days, after which he was to return the Yi Jin Jing.

After thanking the old monk, Wang Cheng quickly returned to the room arranged for him at Shaolin Temple to study the Yi Jin Jing.

Wang Cheng knew that the Yi Jin Jing contained another divine skill, the Shen Zu Jing. After Wang Cheng wet the Yi Jin Jing with water, the Shen Zu Jing appeared.

Wang Cheng found two notebooks and copied down the Yi Jin Jing and Shen Zu Jing. After copying them down, he memorized the two divine skills.

After drying the Yi Jin Jing and restoring it to its original state, it was returned to the old monk who guarded the scriptures at Bodhi Temple.

In this way, Wang Cheng obtained two divine skills at once. He could also go to the Sutra Pavilion to choose two more of the 72 Shaolin Arts. In addition to the one Shaolin Arts that the abbot had promised him, he could choose three more of the 72 Arts.

Furthermore, Wang Cheng already knew that the Nine Yang Manual was also in the Shaolin Temple's Sutra Repository. Wang Cheng was confident that he could obtain the Nine Yang Manual as well.

So, Wang Cheng took the Bodhi Token and ran straight to the Sutra Repository. After searching for a long time, he finally found an old monk quietly sweeping the floor in a corner.

This old monk was very old, but it was obvious at a glance that he possessed unparalleled martial arts skills, because his eyes, like those of his master Kong Chen, were full of spirit.

Wang Cheng had nothing to give the Sweeper Monk, so he only gave him 200 taels of silver.

Originally, the sweeping monk didn't want him at all, but after Wang Cheng said that he was Kong Chen's disciple, the sweeping monk was surprised for a moment, and then told Wang Cheng with a smile: "Since you are Kong Chen's disciple, then you can call me Uncle-Master."

"You are very filial. In the future, you should use your martial arts skills for the right purpose. When learning Shaolin martial arts, you need to study Buddhism more in order to overcome the obstacles in Shaolin martial arts."

Reading more Buddhist scriptures, such as the Diamond Sutra and the Heart Sutra, will greatly benefit your martial arts training.

Wang Cheng thanked the Sweeper Monk with great joy: "Uncle-Master, don't worry, I learned martial arts to uphold justice and will never do anything wrong."

I'm a Shaolin disciple now, and I'll visit you more often when I have time.

Wang Cheng chatted with the sweeping monk for a while, then found the monk guarding the scripture pavilion, showed him his Bodhi token, and the monk guarding the scripture pavilion let Wang Cheng go up to the second floor.

The second floor was filled with martial arts techniques such as the 72 Ultimate Skills. Wang Cheng kept looking for a martial art that suited him. At this time, the Sweeper Monk also came up to the second floor.

Tell Wang Cheng that he should choose the Flower-Picking Finger, the Vajra Palm, and Crossing the River on a Reed. These three martial arts are among the 72 unique skills, and they are also among the most powerful and difficult to master.

However, based on the Yi Jin Jing that Wang Cheng possessed and the martial arts he had learned so far, the Sweeper Monk recommended that he learn these three martial arts.

When Wang Cheng heard the Sweeper Monk's recommendation, he thought that the Sweeper Monk was his senior master and would definitely do it for his own good, so he listened to the Sweeper Monk and chose the three martial arts: the Flower-Picking Finger, the Vajra Palm, and Crossing the River on a Reed.

After finding these three martial arts techniques, Wang Cheng went downstairs to the ordinary bookshelves on the first floor to look for Buddhist scriptures.

The sweeping monk followed Wang Cheng downstairs and smiled slightly as he watched Wang Cheng flipping through Buddhist scriptures one by one.

Then he walked to a row of bookshelves, picked up a scripture, and it turned out to be the rare Sanskrit version of the Lankavatara Sutra that Wang Cheng was looking for. The sweeping monk smiled and said to Wang Cheng.

"You little rascal, you've already looted all of Shaolin's treasures. You should first practice the Yi Jin Jing and Shen Zu Jing, then practice the Nine Yang Divine Skill, and finally combine them with your Nine Yin Manual to integrate your internal energy."

Then he went to practice the remaining 72 Shaolin skills.

This way your body won't have any problems.

Remember, after learning advanced martial arts, you must act chivalrously and righteously in the martial arts world, and not do evil.

That way I won't let you down.

Wang Cheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the sweeping monk. Then he left, full of gratitude, and promised to take good care of any Shaolin people he encountered in the future.

After leaving the Sutra Pavilion, Wang Cheng marveled at how martial arts had reached the level of the Sweeper Monk, who could abandon ordinary worldly prejudices, even though he had only recently joined Shaolin Temple.

The Sweeping Monk actually gifted me Shaolin's ultimate martial arts skills and even gave me pointers on my own skills.

It seems that besides learning from a master, I can also ask the Sweeper Monk for help with any questions I have about martial arts in the future.

The Sweeping Monk was his senior master. Wang Cheng had thought that the Sweeping Monk was of a very high seniority, but he never expected that he was actually his master's senior brother and his senior master.

No wonder the Sweeper Monk was so skilled in martial arts. After learning many martial arts techniques, Wang Cheng immediately returned to the room that Shaolin Temple had arranged for him.

Starting with the Yi Jin Jing, following the instructions of the Sweeper Monk, Wang Cheng began by practicing the Yi Jin Jing. The Yi Jin Jing was very difficult to practice, but Wang Cheng had the help of a system.

He then practiced the more difficult Bodhi Longevity Skill, which had a higher entry difficulty. Wang Cheng spent three days and finally learned the basics of the Shaolin Yi Jin Jing.

Next, he learned another Shaolin martial art, the Divine Foot Scripture, which took Wang Cheng a total of 5 days.

He mastered both of Shaolin's amazing internal martial arts techniques.
