Chapter 37: The Gengjin Sword Technique
Three hundred thousand taels of silver is a staggering wealth, and even if converted to gold, it would be ten or twenty times heavier than Qin Yun. With this money, he can go far away and live a life of luxury and comfort for the rest of his life.
But Qin Yun was not a fool, perhaps the young man in front of him could use this jade pendant to withdraw 300,000 from Tongtian Money House, but if it were Qin Yun himself who went, the most likely outcome would be death without a burial place!
The most important thing is that this young man must die. He has made up his mind to cut the grass and eliminate the roots, so it's impossible for anyone to come back alive!
Shock, anger, unwillingness, despair... Wu Shi's young man fell to the ground and swallowed his last breath. Qin Yun's sword directly pierced his heart, and even the Medical Saint couldn't save him.
Qin Yun drew out his long sword, and his dark eyes flashed with a fierce light.
In this battle, he completed a reversal in a completely disadvantageous situation, and also verified the combat experience gained from grinding in the small world of Qiankun, with considerable gains.
However, although all his opponents were killed by him, there are still many things to come afterwards.
Qin Yun collected all the corpses and had them transported one by one to the foot of a mountain several miles away from the Black Iron Mine using pack mules.
He spent a whole day digging a big pit there and buried the body along with his armor and luggage.
Finally fill back the soil and press it down with stones, after a snowfall no one will notice anything unusual here, and by next spring, the growing vegetation will cover everything.
Qin Yun was doing something destructive for the first time, so he was extra cautious.
He gave up everything he found on the corpse that might be related to the other party's identity, including the jade pendant with the word "Wu" engraved on it.
What made Qin Yun feel most regretful was the long sword carried by that young man, and with his own eyes, he could see that this sword was even better than his own Qinglian Sword.
But precisely because of this, this sword must never see the light of day. Qin Yun unhesitatingly threw it into the great pit to be buried with him.
He left behind some absolutely trouble-free silver tickets and gold coupons, these people are indeed from a wealthy family, going into the mountains to hunt and still carrying thousands of gold and silver on their bodies, Qin Yun naturally accepted them without hesitation.
In addition, he also obtained a secret book from the young man - Gengjin Sword Manual!
Geng Jin Jian Jue is a mysterious sword manual, placed in the book library of Wai Shi Tang, and it's impossible to exchange for it without tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of family merits.
Although it is said that this sword manual can only exert its greatest power when combined with the Metal Inner Qi Heart Method, Qin Yun cultivates the Fire Attribute Heart Method. However, the sword manual itself has many places where he can gain insight and learn from.
Interestingly, this thick sword manual has additional notes added in all the key places of the swordsmanship techniques.
The Gong Fa Jian Jue is one of the foundations for maintaining the power status of the aristocratic families and sects, and each family has racked their brains to prevent their own secret techniques from being leaked out.
Like the Xīn Jiàn Sword Manual, as a mysterious-level sword scripture and a traditional skill of the Wǔ family, when compiling the sword manual, the Wǔ family would inevitably conceal the key secrets in the book. This way, even if it were to be spread out, one could not learn the essence within.
The descendants of the Wu family who want to learn swordsmanship must ask for guidance from senior instructors within the clan, thus consuming the hard-earned merits of their ancestors.
This is the most effective method for the large family clan to control the secret transmission of kung fu techniques for thousands of years, and with other means, ensure that their inherited skills will not be easily leaked out.
And what's surprising about this book of Gengjin Sword Manual is the detailed annotations in it.
Although many annotations cannot be compared to the personal teachings of a mentor, with them, those who obtain the sword manual can catch a glimpse of the essence and subtlety of the sword's secrets.
This is absolutely taboo, it can only be said that the person who gave this sword manual to Wu Shi's young master was extremely fond of him, so he was willing to take risks.
It was for this reason that Qin Yun decided to leave the Geng Jin Sword Manual behind, at least until he had memorized it before destroying it.
The Xuan-level sword manual is absolutely precious, and its temptation to him is really great.
At his current age, Qin Yun is already remarkable for being able to resolutely abandon the temptation of enormous wealth and powerful magical tools. Many people who are much older than him have lost their minds and become blinded by the lure of benefits, ultimately falling into a hopeless situation.
There were gains and losses, but Qin Yun's greatest loss was still that nest of golden needle bees.
If it weren't for the Golden Needle Bees killing off the strongest Black Giant and several other Qi Refining Realm swordsmen, Qin Yun wouldn't have been able to win. However, the Black Giant had also swatted dead nearly thirty Golden Needle Bees just before that.
Although the loss of gold needles is a lot, the queen bee in the hive will regenerate some to make up for it, but it takes a lot of time and effort to cultivate new bees with combat effectiveness from young bees.
A dozen or so pack horses that had shed their saddles and reins were driven away by Qin Yun into the mountains to fend for themselves, and in the depths of the desolate Long Dragon Mountain in the harsh winter, it was unlikely they would survive.
Carefully dealing with all the remaining traces of battle, the last trouble was still that wooden house destroyed by Hei Da Han's sword energy.
Rebuilding a wooden house that is exactly the same as the original one, Qin Yun definitely doesn't have this skill. Leaving the ruins there would be too eye-catching and difficult to explain.
However, there is no ability to rebuild, but thorough demolition is no problem.
Everything that could still be used was moved to another house, and the dismantled wood was split into firewood. Qin Yun spent three days thoroughly clearing away the ruins, which was also a way of destroying evidence.
As for when the people in the mine return next spring and find that a house is missing, he can just say it was crushed by the heavy snow and since they were idle with nothing to do, they cleaned up themselves.
Others cannot afford to quarrel with a Qin family member over a set of wooden houses.
A larger blizzard then struck the Mangyong Mountains.
The wind and snow raged on for three days and three nights, also allowing Qin Yun to completely put his mind at ease.
Heavy snow can cover up all the traces, even if Qian Chao Wu's family found that their children were missing and mobilized a large number of people to search in the mountains, it would not be possible to find anything.
Whether they can enter the mountain is still a question!
Inside the room, the fire in the stove was burning brightly, and on the floor and bed were spread snow wolf skins that had been simply tanned. Outside it was bitterly cold, but inside it was warm as spring, a completely different world.
Qin Yun lazily leaned against the edge of his bed, flipping through the Gangjin Sword Manual in his hand.
He had flipped through this sword manual more than ten times, and the contents inside, including all the annotated texts, were firmly etched in his mind.
However, it's just memorization. This set of Gengjin Sword Techniques is profound and has 36 sword styles, containing 108 variations of sword moves, with a total of 9 levels.
The boundaries of swordsmanship can be divided into five realms: sword form, sword energy, sword appearance, sword intention, and sword domain. Like Qin Yun's basic swordsmanship, even if it is refined to perfection, it is only at the level of sword form, but the fierce fire swordsmanship can advance from sword form to sword energy, with a much higher level of power.
And this Geng Jin Sword Manual, when cultivated to the highest level, can evolve into a unique sword form.
Unfortunately, with Qin Yun's current strength and understanding of swordsmanship, it is almost impossible for him to grasp the essence of the Gengjin Sword Manual without anyone guiding him.
He still can't understand to this day, that Wu family youth came from a wealthy family, had a top-grade treasure sword and a mysterious-level sword manual with him, normally he must have had famous teachers guiding him, his actual strength absolutely wouldn't be too bad.
But this guy performed far worse than an ordinary warrior, kneeling down to beg for mercy without even drawing his sword, completely losing face for the entire clan.
What a pity for this sword manual and that good sword!
Qin Yun silently recited the sword manual in his heart, and after making sure that nothing was missed, he threw the sword manual into the fireplace beside him.
The fierce flames quickly engulfed the book, and in the blink of an eye it was reduced to ashes.
This Golden Sword Manual can be sold for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of silver coins if someone recognizes its value.
However, Qin Yun was not so stupid. This hot potato was not safe to leave on his body, and it would only be safe if he burned it cleanly.
Wow!
The wood in the fireplace burst into flames, with several sparks flying out.
The white fox, who was lying by the fire and sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up with a start, jumped into Qin Yun's arms, and looked around nervously.
Qin Yun chuckled and stroked its smooth fur, which felt like silk.
This snow fox with a jade-like fur was extremely intelligent and resourceful. On the day of the intense battle, it quietly slipped away and disappeared.
But after Qin Yun gained a complete victory, it appeared again and then entwined itself around Qin Yun's body, refusing to leave.
Qin Yun found it clever and lovely, the mountain was quiet and desolate, having its company wasn't bad either, so he decided to keep it, and every day just feeding it some Snow Wolf meat could sustain it.
After a period of time together, Bi Yu Xue Hu and Qin Yun became increasingly close, even sleeping and resting had to be done side by side on the bed.
However, with it around, Qin Yun didn't need to release the Golden Needle Bees for warning anymore. The Biyu Snow Fox's hearing was extremely sharp and could detect any movement outside, and if there were anything unusual, it would proactively alert Qin Yun.
Two days ago, a hungry leopard burst into the mine, and as soon as it came out of the forest, it was detected by the snow fox, startling Qin Yun to go out and kill it with one sword.
The snow fox affectionately rubbed its small head against Qin Yun's chest, suddenly stretched out its mouth and picked up a beast skin pouch from his arms.
Wow! Wow!
It opened its mouth, looked up at Qin Yun and cried out repeatedly, like a spoiled child begging for love from its parents, with a pleading expression in its emerald-like fox eyes.
Qin Yun's heart moved slightly as he reached out and poured out the contents of the animal skin bag.
What was inside was actually the inner elixir dug out from the body of the Snow Wolf King, because it was extremely precious, so he had always carried it with him.
Seeing the wolf king's inner elixir emitting a cold aura, the snow fox's cries became more urgent.
"Do you want it?" Qin Yun raised an eyebrow and waved the inner elixir at the little fox with a hint of amusement.
What he didn't expect was that Snow Fox nodded vigorously.
"Alright, here you go!" Qin Yun smiled and handed over the inner elixir.
The demon beast's inner dan was precious, but apart from selling it for money, it had no use to Qin Yun.
