Text-based martial arts: A nighttime rendezvous with the gang leader's wife in a dilapidated te

Location: Outside Jinling City, Zijin River - Zhongshan Underground River

[Time: 8:00 AM, the 17th day of the 8th month of the 4th year of Tianwu]

This time, you didn't take the mountain path.

Instead, they followed the Zijin River into Zhongshan Mountain. Using the map they had seen from Brother Monkey, they passed through an underwater passage, a narrow and incredibly long tunnel, before finally entering the Monkey Wonderland.

[It must be said, this Monkey King's Wonderland truly lives up to its name as a hidden map. You can be certain that even if an ordinary person obtains the map, they simply cannot enter.]

To enter through the underground river, one must hold their breath for nearly fifteen minutes. Only those with an extremely high level of cultivation and profound internal strength, whose body's acupoints circulate continuously with vital energy, can enter.

[And if one were to leap down from the mountain, besides the steep peaks and the towering heights, there would be jagged rocks; without exceptional lightness skills, one would likely be smashed to pieces.]

[Perhaps it is precisely for these reasons that the wondrous realm of the spirit monkey has never appeared in the world.]

Your arrival caused a stir among the monkeys, but once they saw your face clearly, the restless troop immediately quieted down.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" A familiar cry came from deep within the orchard. The Vajra Monkey, like a golden whirlwind, leaped from branch to branch and appeared before you.

It was clearly excited about your arrival, striking a pose for you and squeaking again.

It seems to be showing off something to you!

[This posture is none other than the second move of the "Spring Breeze and Rain Needle" technique you taught it before, "Thunder Piercing to the Bone."]

[The Monkey King, as if performing a magic trick, pulled out a peach pit and launched it towards the distant mountain wall.]

At that moment, you couldn't even see the trajectory of the peach pit clearly; it flashed like an aurora borealis. The next moment, an incredibly muffled explosion resounded!

【"boom!"】

You stare blankly at the mountain wall where a huge crater has been blasted out.

[The rubble exploded outwards, flying everywhere.]

[You're shocked! This power? How did it go from a Glock to a Barrett?]

[“Squeak squeak squeak!” You turn around and look at the overjoyed Monkey King, who seems quite pleased with his performance.]

Now you finally understand what the so-called "Fighting Body" of the Vajra Monkey King truly means!

[This is too exaggerated! Besides the fact that this monkey brother's strength is indeed powerful, probably comparable to a martial artist in the Qi Opening Realm, his comprehension of this Bone-Piercing Thunderclap move has also reached an unimaginable level.]

You suddenly perked up, cupped your hands in greeting, and said, "Brother Monkey, how did you do that? Could you perhaps offer some pointers?"

[Unexpectedly, in just three days, your identities and the spirit monkey's have been switched, yet you don't seem to care.]

There is no order of precedence in learning; those who achieve mastery come first.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" The Vajra Monkey nodded.

[System notification: You have triggered 'Guidance'. You can ask the current character for guidance on corresponding martial arts or life skills.]

[You learned the second move of the Spring Breeze and Rain Needle Killing Technique, "Bone-Piercing Thunder," from the Vajra Monkey King. However, since you only learned an incomplete version, your experience with the Spring Breeze and Rain Needle Technique has not increased significantly. Your current experience level is 3, 3% (Beginner Level)]

The text selection on the screen in front of him made Chen Xuan blink.

He truly hadn't expected that Brother Monkey would offer such a benefit? The increase wasn't large, but the speed of improvement was immediate! It didn't require spending much time!

What surprised him even more was that Monkey King's talent for martial arts was actually so exaggerated.

Are all the so-called spirit beasts in this martial arts world really that powerful?

Or is it that Monkey King is truly extraordinary?

However, thinking of the divine ape sculpture in the mysterious water cave, Chen Xuan suddenly felt that it was indeed understandable.

Suddenly, at that moment, he thought of something else.

If Monkey King's "Battle Body" is so powerful, then does the "Purple Blood Body" that Old Cao mentioned, which can be cultivated, have any other special effects?

Besides these two, are there any other constitutions? Can a person only have one constitution at most?

I wonder if the "Ancient Sacred Body" exists?

Chen Xuan was unaware of this; all he knew was that he had discovered another channel or medium that could rapidly improve his martial arts skills.

Since that's the case, what else is there to say?

"Brother Monkey! This martial art isn't just about this one move. However, some parts require knowledge of medicine, which is a bit difficult. But there are still a few moves that primarily focus on lethality! Let me teach you!"

[You feel that the Vajra Monkey's teachings have cleared up many of your questions in this short time, much faster than if you had buried yourself in arduous practice on your own.]

[You might as well pass on all the Spring Breeze and Rain Needle techniques you currently possess to the Vajra Martial Monkey before you.]

With the Vajra Monkey King by your side, and the ability to ask him for guidance anytime, anywhere, you can completely save a significant amount of time spent on auto-training your external martial arts skills.

Allocate more practice time and potential points to stance training and medical skills.

For example, right now!

[The Vajra Monkey King has long since mastered the second killing move of the Spring Breeze and Rain Needle, "Thunder Piercing Through Bones"!]

[With your completely unreserved instruction, I have mastered the first killing technique, "Evil Wind Enters the Body," and the third killing technique, "Raging Storm," in just a short time.]

[The Monkey King's favorability towards you increases by 4, current favorability: 54 (Close Friends)]

[Watching the excited Golden Monkey begin practicing again with the mountain of peach pits piled nearby, you smiled.]

[Although the "Spring Breeze and Rain Needle" technique is much less powerful if it is not used in conjunction with acupoints on the human body, that is, when used in conjunction with learned medical skills.]

However, for the Vajra Monkey King, this was clearly not a particularly serious problem.

What it emphasizes is a powerful brick flying through the air.

That's enough. To you, Brother Monkey has essentially become an external martial arts training accelerator.

[In that case, you're no longer in a hurry to continue teaching the Serpent's Tongue Palm and the Luo Yan Fist!]

After all, you need to maintain a certain level of mystery and novelty to ensure that Monkey Brother's favorability improves later.

[It's important to know that besides martial arts skills, the most crucial factors for increasing favorability are the availability of Monkey Wine and the improvement of one's destiny grade.]

These things are far, far more valuable than the rudimentary martial arts skills you possess!

Having thought this through, you finally stopped hesitating, greeted Brother Monkey, and then plunged once more into the icy depths of the pool!

[You are ready to go into seclusion and cultivate the "Azure Sea Stabilizing Stake"!]
