Chapter 102: Seeking Dragon True Movement Technique
In the vast ancient continent, a clan of dragons once flourished without equal, and the dragon is a branch of the dragon clan.
But up to now, the dragon clan has long been extinct on the mainland and has become a legendary story like the immortal family, so the ice dragon pearl can be called an ancient rare treasure, precious and rare, and cannot be measured by money.
Kan Shuiyan's face showed a hesitant expression, seemingly not very willing to accept this gift. Qin Yun immediately said: "This is the heart of the disciple's offering to the master, please don't refuse!"
Shui Wan's face lit up with a smile, and she very generously put away the two ice beads: "Alright then, it seems Master has taken advantage of you. These two ice beads are really quite helpful to me."
"But I also won't treat you unfairly, although you are a nominal disciple, whatever you want to learn, as long as I understand it, I will not keep it from you!"
This is the benefit of having a master, if it were an ordinary outer sect disciple, wanting to learn swordsmanship and martial arts, basically relying on completing sect tasks to accumulate contributions in exchange for kung fu sword spectra, also need to use more sect contributions to ask for guidance from high-ranking masters within the sect.
The system of family merits of the Qin clan was all learned from the ancestral temple.
The sect will not raise useless people, and the hierarchy is extremely strict. Unless you have a background that reaches the sky, you must rely on your own efforts to stand out.
Shui Wenyin's dual cultivation of Qi and swordsmanship is unmatched, she excels at refining talismans, elixirs, and medicinal pills. As a pre-heavenly strong cultivator, her sword dao attainments are also formidable.
The Tiancheng Sword Sect is renowned for its swordsmanship, dominating the nine provinces. However, within the sect, there are not a few practitioners who cultivate internal energy, and those like her who cultivate both internal energy and swordsmanship are even more numerous. Each person's choice is different, yet they all lead to the same ultimate goal.
"You are a fire attribute, and it is incompatible with the Huishui True Formula and Ruoshui Swordsmanship that I cultivate, so I cannot directly pass on what I have learned to you." Shui Wanying said slowly: "However, the way of martial arts and swordsmanship all have commonalities. If you encounter any difficulties or obstacles in your cultivation, you can come ask me."
Master-disciple oral transmission and personal teaching is far more convenient than obtaining cultivation experience and techniques through contributions within the sect. As a pre-heavenly strong cultivator, Shui Wanying pointing out the refinement of Qi realm to Qin Yun would not be a problem.
"Thank you, Master!" Qin Yun said sincerely.
"This doesn't count for anything..." Shui Wanying said with a wave of her hand: "What I can truly impart to you is still the study of talismans, I don't know if you have any interest in learning how to refine talismans?"
Learning to refine talismans?
Qin Yun was taken aback for a moment, this was something he had never thought of before: "Not only can Qi Refining Masters refine talismans?"
"That's a common misconception. In fact, cultivating martial arts and cultivating Taoism are different paths with the same goal, not that water and fire can't coexist."
The profound and time-honored tradition of the Nine States' Qi Refining Dao has been passed down through the three orthodox lineages of Longhu Mountain, Chongyang Temple, and Zhenwu Gate. The Qi Refiners cultivate their innate true energy internally and borrow the power of heaven and earth externally, giving rise to numerous extraordinary skills and mysterious methods over a thousand years of transmission.
Alchemy, casting, array, Kan Yu, physiognomy... its profound and vast place is not under the martial way of swordsmanship.
The Taoist tradition has hundreds of techniques, with Fu Lu Shou being the first. Most Qigong practitioners know one or two ways to draw and carve talismans, but very few can truly master the study of talismans.
According to Shui Wenyin's words, she had only just caught a glimpse of the entrance on the Fu Lu.
"Infuse your vital energy into paper, wood, gold and jade, using the body of cloud seals to trigger the power of the five elements of heaven and earth. As long as you understand the key and have suitable materials, you can also learn it."
This is absolutely a profound and subtle skill, but what makes Qin Yun feel difficult is that he has been determined to pursue the way of martial arts and swordsmanship, while learning talismans is not something that can be accomplished overnight. If he spends time and energy on this aspect, it will inevitably lead to neglecting other things.
A person's energy is always limited, and it's already a great achievement to have some accomplishments in one aspect. Qin Yun didn't want to make the mistake of being greedy and not being able to digest everything.
Although he is also very interested in talismans.
Shui Wancong seemed to have seen the thoughts in Qin Yun's heart, and she continued: "I understand some physiognomy, I see that your facial features indicate that you lost both parents at a young age and had a difficult life, and in the future, you will still experience many hardships and trials."
"If you can understand the art of talismans, there are many kinds of spiritual talismans that can help you escape difficulties in times of crisis. Moreover, as a disciple of the Sword Sect, you can use refined talismans to exchange for sect contributions or sell them directly for spirit jade."
Qin Yun no longer hesitated and immediately got up to kowtow again: "Disciple is willing to learn the art of talismans, please Master's guidance!"
Shui Wan's words were so sincere and heartfelt that Qin Yun couldn't help but feel the master's genuine intentions.
Moreover, mastering an additional skill is absolutely not a bad thing, as long as one doesn't become obsessed with it and neglects the cultivation of swordsmanship. Qin Yun also believes in his own self-control ability.
What shocked Qin Yun the most was that Shui Wanying could actually see his life story from his facial features, and this skill of physiognomy was far beyond what those ordinary fortune tellers could do.
Shui Wanqing looked at Qin Yun bowing his head in front of her, and a relieved smile appeared on her face.
She bent down and helped Qin Yun up with both hands: "A man has gold under his knees, you and I have a predestined relationship as master and apprentice, it is only natural for me to teach you skills, from now on there is no need to kowtow again."
The grand ceremony has been completed, and the master-apprentice relationship between the two parties is now officially established.
Shui Wanying gave Qin Yun three books related to Fu Lu, namely "The Way of Fu Lu", "True Interpretation of Fu Wen" and "Refining Fu Zhen Ji".
These three books are the foundation of Fu Lu Shou's technique. Only after mastering all their contents can one formally start learning to refine Fu Lu Shou.
Qin Yun picked up one of the books and flipped through a few pages, finding that there were many annotations in the margins, with elegant and dense handwriting, which should be Shui Wenyang's handwriting.
He was reading "The True Meaning of Rune", and interestingly, many contents Qin Yun understood at a glance, which had a lot in common with the "Ancient Character Analysis" he had read before in the Qin family.
At first, Qin Yun was practicing the Nine Yang Xuan Gong and didn't understand the text in the manual, so he exchanged it for "Ancient Character Deciphering". He didn't expect that these ancient characters were also part of the symbol script, but the content contained in "Symbol Script True Interpretation" was even more detailed.
The Fuwen is also known as the ancient script, and has the alias of Shenwen Xianzi.
Seeing Qin Yun being drawn into the book, Shui Wanying smiled and said: "The day after tomorrow is the Sword Sect's entrance ceremony, you don't have to rush to learn the art of talismans, first take a good rest for two days."
Qin Yun put down his book with some embarrassment and turned to ask Shui Wanying questions about internal energy cultivation.
He has been working hard to break through the sixth layer of Qi Refining, and so far he has successfully opened up forty-seven hidden caves. However, as he progresses further, the difficulty increases, especially in accurately finding the hidden caves, which is the biggest challenge.
Qin Yun only wanted to ask for some tips, but unexpectedly, Shui Wanjing listened and directly transmitted a Dragon Seeking True Movement Technique to him.
This set of Qigong was created by the predecessors who refined Qi, but it is also applicable to martial artists. Its subtlety lies in its ability to use a mouthful of true Qi to travel throughout the body, thereby perceiving the condition of the meridians.
The Xun Long Zhen Yun Shu can detect the existence of meridians connected to hidden caves, which is much more effective and faster than Qin Yun finding holes by himself, and it's very simple to practice, not profound at all.
Under Water Wanying's guidance, Qin Yun mastered this technique in less than an hour!
The first time he tried, he found a closed pulse connected to the Wu Mai, which also meant that he had found the location of a hidden cave.
What's most important is that with the help of the Dragon Seeking True Movement Technique, Qin Yun can directly understand the situation of this hidden vein, thus laying a solid foundation for the next step of penetration, and no longer needs to carefully and repeatedly explore like before, undoubtedly greatly saving time.
The true method of seeking dragon fortune is not only useful for hidden pulse, but all the meridians in the body can be explored, so it can be used until the completion of refining qi.
There's a master who is really good! He thought to himself secretly.
……
"Bang!"
In another courtyard house just two miles away from Yunshui Xiaozhuang, a crisp slapping sound rang out.
Wu Qi knelt on the ground, covering his face with his hands, and his appearance was no longer as arrogant as it usually was.
"You little brat, you're getting worse and worse!" Wu Qinghong clenched his fist in frustration and said: "Three years since entering the sect, but only six layers of Qi Refining Heaven, can't even beat a newcomer who hasn't entered the sect yet, my face is completely lost because of you!"
She returned to her residence, feeling increasingly uncomfortable in her heart, so she pulled Wu Qi over and gave him a good scolding, also forcing the whole story out of his mouth.
The younger brother of his own family and the son of an enemy's family are definitely different. Wu Qinghong didn't mind Wu Qi's unreasonable provocation to Qin Yun, she was angry that Wu Qi had repeatedly lost face and lied to her!
"What makes you think Qin Xiao is a good person? He's from the Qin family and you're from the Wu family, don't dream that he can truly be your brother! Wu Qinghong sneered: "He's using you as a sword, just a few pieces of spiritual jade and you've lost your mind, can you be any more shameless?"
Wu Qi's first visit to Qin Yun's doorstep was a result of Qin Xiao Yue's instigation from behind.
The two originally belonged to the Wu and Qin families, who should have been incompatible with each other, but Qin Xiao Yue was very good at getting along with people within the Jianzong Sect, and had no grudges or conflicts with Wu Qi.
Qin Xiaoyue asked a outer sect disciple who had a good relationship with Wu Qi to speak on his behalf. With just a few words, Wu Qi's heart was moved, and although he knew Qin Xiaoyue might not have good intentions, he couldn't help but be tempted by the promise of benefits.
"Aunt, I didn't know that Qin Yun was so difficult to deal with. This time, I've been taken in by Qin Xiaoyue!" Wu Qi hugged Wu Qinghong's leg and wailed: "You must stand up for me!"
"Take charge? What can I take charge of?" Wu Qinghong sneered, her eyes flashing with venomous resentment: "Now that Shui Wanying is back, her strength and realm have clearly improved again, and she might soon become a true disciple!"
"When the time comes, I'm afraid I'll have to watch her expression too!"
"What!" Wu Qi was suddenly stunned.
"But with me around, she won't get away with it that easily!" Wu Qinghong's face twisted in anger: "Shui Wenyin, let's see about this!"
The last few words were squeezed out from between his teeth!
