Chapter 91: Tianshan Sect’s Secret Manuals And Martial Arts!
“Hum.”
The Curse Mark on Ji Qing’s arm suddenly shot out a strand of Black Qi.
This strand of Black Qi quickly transformed into a huge Ghost Face, and it also emitted a eerie “hee hee hee” sound.
Then, the Ghost Face re-merged into the Curse Mark. Ji Qing’s hair, which had just turned a bit black, turned white again, and even the Curse Mark on his hand returned to its previous state.
Chen Feng’s heart sank.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh and said, “I can’t break this Mountain Ghost Curse. Unless the Old Ancestor is invited, or a Grandmaster takes action, no one can exorcise it.”
Ji Qing wasn’t too disappointed either.
Demon Slayer Old Ancestor, or Grandmaster—Ji Qing couldn’t invite any such figures.
“What harm does this Curse actually have?”
Ji Qing asked.
Actually, aside from a head of white hair, Ji Qing didn’t seem to feel any other harm from the Curse.
“This Curse is the most vicious Lifespan Curse. It will imperceptibly erode your lifespan vitality bit by bit. If you keep carrying this Curse, even if you are a First-Rank Martial Artist, your lifespan won’t exceed a Sixty-Year Cycle.”
Chen Feng said with a solemn expression.
“Lifespan not exceeding a Sixty-Year Cycle?”
Ji Qing smiled.
A Sixty-Year Cycle is sixty years.
In other words, if the Curse Mark remains, Ji Qing won’t live past sixty years old.
But is that a problem?
That’s not a problem!
Ordinary people living to sixty is already considered a long life.
Moreover, Ji Qing has the Demon Record. Before sixty years old, he will definitely achieve Acquired to Innate and become a Grandmaster!
And once he becomes an Innate Grandmaster, or his Saber Momentum transforms into Saber Intent, he can easily remove the Curse Mark.
“Thank you, Brother Chen and Heroine Wang, for coming. Ji Mou has nothing of value and no gifts to thank you with, so I’ll borrow flowers to offer Buddha. In this vast Tianshan Sect, you two can take anything you fancy.”
“If you fancy any Martial Arts Manual, you can also copy a portion.”
Ji Qing said to Wang Feiyan and Chen Feng.
Although the two hadn’t taken action, they had come from afar over thousands of miles, and Ji Qing naturally appreciated it!
After the Tianshan Sect disbanded, Ji Qing planned to take away whatever he could from inside. Using Tianshan Sect’s things to thank everyone, Ji Qing didn’t feel heartbroken at all.
“Big Sister, Second Brother, Fourth Sister, you all too—take anything you fancy.”
Everyone looked at each other.
“Then we’ll respectfully obey.”
Everyone didn’t decline either.
They were indeed very interested in Tianshan Sect’s things.
After all, this was a top Sect in the Jianghu.
Aside from never producing a Grandmaster, it had First-rate Experts generation after generation.
It could also be considered to have deep Foundation, not to be underestimated.
“I’m interested in the Tianshan Sect’s collection of Antiques and Curios over the generations. Perhaps I can find one or two unburied Magic Tools among them.”
Chen Feng said.
“I’d rather check out the Tianshan Sect’s Medicinal Garden and see if there are any Precious Medicinal Herbs that increase Cultivation. Of course, if there are Precious Medicinal Herbs, I’ll definitely leave a share for Brother Ji.”
Wang Feiyan said with a smile.
As for Martial Arts?
For example, Secret Manuals—Wang Feiyan wasn’t interested at all.
In terms of Secret Manuals, Red Lotus Sect has numerous Secret Manuals and doesn’t care about Tianshan Sect’s Secret Manuals at all.
“Good, everyone please go ahead.”
Thus, everyone headed to various places in the Tianshan Sect.
Ji Qing was naturally interested in Martial Arts.
Saber Technique, Lightness Skill, Secret Manuals.
Especially Secret Manuals, which were of paramount importance!
The human body’s thirty-six major Acupoints—Ji Qing currently had only one Secret Manual, which could only cultivate three Acupoints.
Although the Hanging Temple definitely had other Secret Manuals, one couldn’t keep fleecing the same sheep. Moreover, he had already promised the Hanging Temple and wouldn’t ask them for more Martial Arts.
Now with the Tianshan Sect, it resolved Ji Qing’s urgent need.
The Tianshan Sect definitely had plenty of Secret Manuals.
Otherwise, it couldn’t have First-rate Experts generation after generation.
Ji Qing got up and headed to the Tianshan Sect’s Martial Arts Pavilion.
It was empty inside.
Ji Qing walked in slowly and discovered that the Martial Arts Pavilion had three layers.
The First Layer was basic Beginner Martial Arts, only for Third-rate and below Martial Artists to cultivate.
The Second Layer was Martial Arts for Second-Rank Martial Artists to cultivate.
Ji Qing speculated that the Third Layer should be various Martial Arts for First-Rank Martial Artists to cultivate.
There must be Secret Manuals!
When Ji Qing arrived at the Third Layer, he found very few Martial Arts inside.
However, each one was a Divine Skill!
If placed in the Jianghu, any one would cause a Jianghu Dispute.
Ji Qing’s top priority was to find Secret Manuals.
He quickly found the Secret Manuals.
One, two, three, four, five…
There were many Secret Manuals, perhaps even more than the Hanging Temple.
Although the Hanging Temple was a thousand-year ancient temple with deep Foundation.
But the Hanging Temple had declined for a hundred years, and its prestige in the Jianghu was far inferior to the Tianshan Sect.
The Tianshan Sect had First-rate Experts generation after generation.
Through various seizures, it had seized countless Secret Manuals.
With numerous Secret Manuals, it gave the Tianshan Sect’s many Disciples and Elders plenty of choices.
For example, if one couldn’t sense the Acupoints, they could try several Secret Manuals.
Some people are insensitive to certain Acupoints but very sensitive to others.
If there were too few Secret Manuals, it would delay them, and they might never sense the Acupoints in their lifetime, naturally unable to promote to First-rate.
But the Tianshan Sect was different.
Secret Manuals for the thirty-six major Acupoints were all available.
Some Secret Manuals even cultivated the same Acupoint.
Ji Qing naturally wasn’t polite. Secret Manuals were of paramount importance, so he immediately packed up all the Secret Manuals.
After promoting to First-rate, Ji Qing still focused mainly on “Saber Technique.”
In Saber Technique, Ji Qing already had Astonishing Swan Saber, which was very powerful among First-rate Cultivation Techniques.
Ji Qing thought, his attack methods were still not rich enough.
Moreover, his Saber Technique was a slaughtering Saber Technique.
Drawing the saber must see blood!
Some occasions weren’t suitable for drawing the saber.
Thus, Ji Qing began selecting some Fist and Foot Kung Fu.
“Hm, this Ice Palm matches my Internal Energy attribute quite well.”
Ji Qing’s Internal Energy carried a thread of Ice Power, making it most suitable to cultivate this Ice Palm.
This Ice Palm was also a Divine Skill with immense might.
If cultivated to a high level, it could freeze someone into an Ice Sculpture from several zhang away.
Then Ji Qing also wanted to practice a First-rate Lightness Skill.
His current Lightness Skill was only Grass on Flying, merely a Third-rate Lightness Skill, which was somewhat insufficient.
Last time Ji Qing encountered an Avalanche and was buried deep in the snow mountain—this lesson was still fresh in his memory.
If his Lightness Skill had been better, perhaps he wouldn’t have been buried Underground.
After careful selection, Ji Qing chose a Lightness Skill called “Thousand Mile Divine Movement.”
Also a top Lightness Skill!
Cultivated to a high level, though it couldn’t tread the air, crossing a river on a single reed was no issue at all. Moreover, purely in terms of speed, few Lightness Skills in the world could compare to Thousand Mile Divine Movement.
Ji Qing chose these two Martial Arts intending to practice them himself; he wouldn’t use Origin Points to improve them.
After all, Origin Points were very precious.
Ji Qing would only use Origin Points to improve his Cultivation.
Whether Thousand Mile Divine Movement or Ice Palm, neither was urgently needed.
They could only be considered icing on the cake, compensating for some of his shortcomings.
Practiced slowly by Ji Qing himself, they wouldn’t be too bad either.
“Hm? What’s this?”
Ji Qing suddenly saw a Brochure.
It didn’t look like a Martial Arts Manual.
But why was it placed on the third layer of the Martial Arts Pavilion?
Ji Qing looked closely and saw it was actually the Cultivation Experience of the Tianshan Sect’s successive Patriarchs.
This was a good item.
What embodied a Sect’s Foundation: first, the quantity of Martial Arts Secret Manuals.
Second, this kind of Cultivation Experience from Top Experts.
Ji Qing immediately opened the first page, and several large characters came into view.
Seeing these several large characters, Ji Qing’s expression changed instantly.
