Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

Green hills rise in clusters, and the wind blows swiftly.

The group of five people and one sculptor did not take the main road, but instead chose a small path to head northwest towards Zhongnan Mountain. Along the way, they experienced a different kind of scenery.

Previously, I was always in a hurry and didn't have much time to appreciate this incomparably beautiful landscape.

Upon seeing this, everyone experienced a rare moment of tranquility.

In particular, Yue Que's tense nerves relaxed considerably.

The same applies to the three disciples of the Crimson Serpent Fairy.

On the contrary, Little Dragon Girl and the Condor Brother didn't seem to have any feelings.

Aside from practicing their skills, they would still gather together in their spare time to discuss the "Sunflower Manual" again.

Yue Que, who proposed a unique method of creating skills, was no longer the main force in this precious manual.

As for Hong Lingbo and Lu Wushuang, it's even worse; they can't even get a word in edgewise now.

Unbeknownst to them, the ones who truly cared were the Red Serpent Fairy Li Mochou and the Little Dragon Girl, the two sisters.

The conflict between Li Mochou and Xiaolongnu reignites.

The two offered their suggestions and began arguing endlessly, like the left and right hemispheres of their brains battling each other. As for Yue Que, he acted as a dedicated recorder, just like a historian.

Since it was previously determined that this manual would be affiliated with Wang Chongyang and Lin Chaoying, the names of Li Mochou and Xiaolongnu could not appear on the manual.

Therefore, during the writing process, Yue Que was needed to polish the brush accordingly.

One was affiliated with Wang Chongyang, and the other with Lin Chaoying.

During the recording process, Yue Que discovered that the narrative of the two sisters had changed without him realizing it.

In the initial part of the story, the Red Serpent Fairy chose to use her strength to throw bricks, relying primarily on internal energy and secondarily on techniques.

Xiaolongnu, on the other hand, primarily relies on martial arts techniques, with internal energy as a secondary means.

Yue Que could see that the difference was essentially due to the two men's different levels of self-confidence.

Because before, her senior sister Li Mochou had strong enough internal energy. She used poison to replace the Cold Jade Bed to stimulate the growth of her internal energy, raising her internal energy to a level stronger than Huang Rong who cultivated the Nine Yin Manual. She could use her basic internal energy value to exert strong pressure, so the moves were not so important.

Because of the age difference, Xiaolongnu is temporarily inferior to him in cultivating internal strength, so she focuses on extremely fast moves and uses internal strength as a supplement.

When internal energy is insufficient to overwhelm the opponent, the advantage in techniques will be maximized.

This was also what Xiaolongnu relied on to deal with her senior sister back then.

But now it's different.

Because she had spent far more time cultivating with Yue Que than with her senior sister Li Mochou, Xiaolongnu's skill level increased rapidly. However, when she tried to close the gap in their internal strength, she neglected the techniques and focused on cultivating her internal energy.

This is especially true after practicing the Cantongqi and the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra together.

Chi Lian Fairy, who had secretly taken some time to study the Cantongqi academically with her junior disciple at the Sword Tomb, also discovered this and became increasingly anxious.

Therefore, during the process of creating the magic manual, it can be seen that Senior Sister Li Mochou has undergone a change.

She began to abandon internal energy and instead chose techniques.

The Crimson Serpent Fairy decided to unleash her talent for creating skills and push this area to its limit.

In Yue Que's view, although the two sides made different choices at different times, they would eventually end up on the same path and have the same result.

But from the perspective of outsiders, it is not so.

This interaction between the left and right hemispheres of the brain can reach its peak.

Yue Que already felt that the amplified heat sensation when practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra was bad enough, but the struggle between the Red Serpent Fairy and Little Dragon Girl would be even worse.

"Oh!"

With a soft chuckle, Yue Que smiled with satisfaction as he revised his writing.

This precious manual of martial arts has, in a sense, already become complete.

As one of the successors of Quanzhen and Ancient Tomb sects, Yue Que naturally needs to leverage the strengths of his sect and leave a legacy for future generations.

Most importantly, Yue Que sensed that the true battle between light and darkness between Li Mochou and her fellow disciple Xiaolongnu was not far off.

……

After another day of walking.

As the group stepped out of the path, they suddenly found themselves in a wide-open space.

Suddenly, a wondrous sight appeared in the valley before them.

Nestled amidst mountains lies a deep, recessed valley, spanning over 30,000 acres. The road winds and twists, with hills and ravines blocking the way. The surrounding vegetation is lush and verdant, and flowers bloom in profusion. The scenery along the way is already breathtaking, but this place is an exceptionally beautiful spot.

The group strolled along, and saw two or three cranes, a herd of white deer, squirrels and rabbits by the roadside, all undisturbed by people, like a secluded paradise.

"what?"

The Crimson Serpent Fairy observed the scenery before her, a beauty she had never seen before in her life, and couldn't help but wonder, "How strange."

"Xiangyang is truly a wondrous place."

"I never expected there would be such a place around here."

"There is a sword mound, and such a scenic spot."

Having roamed the martial world for many years, the Red Serpent Fairy found that only Peach Blossom Island, where Huang Yaoshi, the Eastern Heretic, resided, could rival such a beautiful scene.

Hong Lingbo and Lu Wushuang, the two sisters, were also intrigued and became engrossed in the beautiful scenery before them.

"So many beautiful flowers!"

Xiaolongnu only uttered this one sentence in response, her attention completely drawn to the flowers blooming all over the valley floor before her.

The petals are incredibly vibrant in color, resembling a hibiscus but even more fragrant, and like a camellia but even more beautiful.

Even though there are many flowers beside the ancient tombs on Zhongnan Mountain, none of them can compare to the flowers in front of me.

Faced with such a beautiful view, Yue Que was stunned.

For a long time.

Coming to his senses, Yue Que exclaimed in astonishment, "The Valley of Heartbreak?"

My senior master, Fairy Chilian, is absolutely right. Xiangyang City is indeed a strange place.

Who knows what else might be hidden around this city?

Sword Tomb, Valley of Heartbreak, Divine Eagle, and Bodhi Serpent.

Xiangyang is truly a paradise on earth, a place straight out of a martial arts novel, where strange and inexplicable things can happen.

Scratching his head, Yue Que felt as if his brain had been attacked by geography knowledge. He had never imagined that the Valley of Heartbreak was the direction from Xiangyang back to Zhongnan Mountain.

"The Valley of Heartbreak?" X4.

The women in the ancient tomb spoke up in unison.

"good."

Yue Que nodded and said, "I once read a record in the Quanzhen Sect's scriptures that there is a place in the world called the Valley of Heartbreak, where extremely poisonous flowers bloom."

Yue Que pointed to the beautiful flowers in the valley and said, "These flowers must be the legendary Love Flowers."

Li Mochou: "The Valley of Heartbreak?"

Little Dragon Girl: "Love Flower?"

"The Everlasting Love Flower blooms in the Valley of Heartbreak," Yue Que continued, picking up where the two left off. "It's strange and contradictory, isn't it?"

"I was also puzzled when I first saw these things recorded in the classics of the Quanzhen School."

aside.

Hong Lingbo and Lu Wushuang nodded like squirrels, also acknowledging this doubt.

Upon hearing this, Xiaolongnu guessed, "Such a contradiction between ruthlessness and affection; it seems there's a story behind this."

"The Quanzhen Sect truly is the greatest sect in the world!" The Red Serpent Fairy was quite impressed by the richness of the Quanzhen Sect's collection of books, thinking to herself that Wang Chongyang, whom the founder had taken a liking to, truly lived up to his former status as the greatest sect in the world.

Such extensive knowledge and experience is truly rare.

After all, Xiangyang is now on the front line against the Mongols, whereas it was previously on the front line against the Jin.

The Red Serpent Fairy thought that Wang Chongyang might have traveled to these places and experienced them, which might have given him the talent to be the best in the world.

Thus, he won the title of the best swordsman in the world at the Mount Hua Sword Tournament and seized the Nine Yin Manual.

If given the chance, she would like to read the Complete Classics and find out if there are any other strange places in the world.

Hearing this, Hong Lingbo, having gone through so much and developed her own solutions, directly asked the crucial question: "Does that mean that the Valley of Heartbreak, like the Sword Tomb, contains treasures?"

Apart from Yue Que and Xiaolongnu, everyone else was stunned for a moment, and then they also became serious.

The Crimson Serpent Fairy, drawing on her experience in the martial world, advised, "Everyone, be careful from now on."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Mochou, the Dark One of the Ancient Tomb, took the lead and cleared the way.
