Comprehensive martial arts: He was in the Jin Kingdom, but he returned to the Southern Song Dynasty

The group went onto the island and were taken to the mountain by the disciples of the Island of Heroes.

After many twists and turns, they arrived at a space in the cave, which turned out to be a hall. There were two empty seats in the front, some tables and chairs around, and many young people came and went, just like a small community.

Huang Yaoshi commented, "Not elegant enough."

Zhou Botong also imitated his tone and said, "Not fun enough."

Huang Yaoshi glanced at Zhou Botong fiercely. Zhou Botong had been imprisoned by him for so many years and had a lot of resentment in his heart. He turned around and looked over. The two Five Great Masters glared at each other.

Lu Chen ignored the elementary and middle school students playing around, but looked at the back of the hall where two old men appeared, one in a yellow robe and the other in a green robe.

When they saw the people coming, they first looked at Huang Yaoshi and Zhou Botong, then at Lu Chen. As they looked, they realized that their martial arts were all top-notch, so they were surprised and nodded secretly.

Lu Chen understood their mentality very well. The Island of Heroes had always wanted to recruit masters from all over the world. As long as they were not evil, the more powerful and intelligent they were in martial arts, the more respect they would receive.

It's just because they have been in contact with "Tai Xuan Gong" for too long but have not found a way to crack it, this martial art has long become a demon and a disease in their hearts. At this point, as long as someone can crack the mystery of "Tai Xuan Gong", they will get their full support.

In a sense, they treat Tai Xuan Gong as their own daughter, and hope to choose a good son-in-law for their whole life. All the masters in the world are within their selection range.

The two of them bowed, and the dragon island master in yellow robes said enthusiastically, "We two brothers are honored to have you here. On this deserted island, everything is simple, and the hospitality is not good enough. Please forgive me."

Island Master Mu followed and said, "Everyone, please take a seat."

After a few people sat down, they also sat down. It seemed that they were quite particular about etiquette.

Huang Yaoshi introduced, "Island masters, I haven't seen you for many years. I am sorry to come here to discuss important matters. This is Zhou Botong, and this is Lu Chen."

The Dragon Island Lord was surprised and asked, "Is it Master Chongyang, the master known as the 'Old Naughty Boy'?"

Island Master Mu looked at Lu Chen, "I have also heard of Brother Lu's name. He is a third-generation disciple of the Quanzhen Sect. He has done many great things in the past year, but there is no record of such martial arts. It seems that every generation has talented people. Brother Lu's martial arts have improved by leaps and bounds. He is also a brilliant figure in martial arts."

Island Master Mu called out again, "Bring up the Laba porridge."

Some disciples of Xiake Island came over and brought hot Laba porridge with rich ingredients.

Lu Chen didn't care at all. He took it and took a drink. He found that the effect on his internal strength was minimal. It was not surprising. If this thing could have an effect on a master of the Great Three Combinations, it would be amazing.

It was useless to him, Huang Yaoshi, and Zhou Botong, but those disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect drank it one by one and found it very beneficial. From time to time, they could hear screams and sit cross-legged in meditation.

Seeing that they were straightforward, the Dragon Island Lord was very impressed and said with a smile, "Don't you worry that we might have any ill intentions?"

How could he know that Lu Chen knew everything about the Island of Heroes, and the disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect had followed him all the way and had long been convinced by Lu Chen. Whenever they saw him do something, they would immediately follow suit. After all, as long as they followed Lu Chen, they would never suffer any loss.

Lu Chen spoke quickly and got straight to the point. "I have long heard Island Master Huang say that the two island masters are chivalrous people. Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that what he said is true. I came here this time because of an important matter..."

He then explained Gong Jiu's situation in a few words.

The owner of Longmu Island had been living on the seaside for a long time, so he naturally knew the origins of Gong Jiu. In fact, they had also investigated the people around them, and they all believed that the overseas martial artists respected the island where Gong Jiu was, but they had not known the details for many years.

Back then, they also invited the old man Wu Ming to come and crack the "Tai Xuan Gong", but was politely declined by Wu Ming.

The two island masters, Longmu, were still obsessed and puzzled, and even thought about going to "invite" Wu Ming in person.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the nameless island, he immediately felt the oppression of Wu Ming. Without going to the island and meeting his children, he fled in shame.

They were also aware that Gong Jiu was Wu Ming's disciple, but since Wu Ming was around, it was naturally not Gong Jiu's turn to speak or act.

As a result, now, Gong Jiu seemed to have lost his restraints and started to move randomly.

The two were also moved when they heard this, thinking to themselves, "So that old man Wu Ming is a land immortal and the pillar behind the Azure Dragon Society. However, in this era of great strife, he also escaped into the Nine Voids and Unbounded Realms, but released the little devil Gong Jiu to do whatever he wanted. I don't know if this was Wu Ming's tacit approval, or if he was also being schemed against by his disciples."

The Dragon Island Lord pondered for a moment, "According to Brother Lu's intention, Gong Jiu came here this time to kill two birds with one stone. First, to complete the formation of his archipelago alliance, so that the sea will belong to him and organize destiny; second, I'm afraid it's for our "Tai Xuan Gong"."

The island master said angrily, "How dare this kid be so bold! The whole world is in chaos, with heavy casualties, and it's just this kind of villain causing trouble!"

They were chivalrous people and had never been very fond of the Azure Dragon Society. However, for many years, they had not known the origins of the masters from the Nameless Island. Now that they knew the truth and that Gong Jiu had intended to offend them, even Buddha would be furious.

The Dragon Island Lord looked at the three people again and said confidently, "Please rest assured, with my two brothers here, Gong Jiu's ambition will never come true. If we are not prepared, there is a slight possibility of conspiracy. Now that we have a clear mind, we will not allow Gong Jiu to do anything reckless."

Island Master Mu smiled slightly, "You three are guests, and you have been kind enough to inform me of Gong Jiu's ambitions. Why don't you take a look at the Taixuan Gong on our Chivalrous Island? It would be great if you can gain some insights!"

Lu Chen nodded, but he knew that although the Lord of Longmu Island was complacent, he also had the basis for his complacency.

They are all masters of the One-Mie level, and are on par with Gong Jiu. In a two-on-one situation, Gong Jiu would have no chance at all if he did not have a helper of the same level.

The three states of mind, one is extinction, two is emptiness, and three is forgetfulness. Although they all mean “nothing”, their artistic conceptions are very different.

Destruction is one of the three elements of essence, energy and spirit. It means direct death, destruction and non-existence. There is no life at all, a complete dead end.

This state has reached its end and there is no room for maneuver.

Emptiness means being empty and void, but it does not mean death. It is just an illusion and is not real. The second of the Three Treasures is emptiness, between reality and illusion.

This state is one level higher than reaching the end.

As for forgetfulness, it is called sitting and forgetfulness. Zhuangzi said: "To abandon the body, to abandon intelligence, to leave the form and knowledge, to be one with the great unity, this is called sitting and forgetfulness."

When the three elements of essence, energy and spirit disappear, even the debate between reality and illusion disappears. They have existed, but they are all forgotten. In this state, one forgets both the self and the world, is detached from the world, and has only a slight connection with the world, and can shed the body at any time.

Such a state is unimaginable, perfect and flawless.

Lu Chen knew that compared to intrigue and conspiracy, the two island masters, Long and Mu, were more focused on cracking the "Tai Xuan Gong".

In a sense, the two of them are extremely simple scholars who only want to delve into the mysteries of Taixuan Gong. Although they care about other things, they are always less important.

Lu Chen felt that if they faced Gong Jiu with such a mentality, they would probably still suffer losses.

It's like two PhDs in economics who can always come up with a set of explanations about the laws of the market and their analysis is incisive and to the point, but when it comes to running the company themselves, people still feel uneasy.

The two island masters Long Mu were people who were good at martial arts but not good at fighting. However, Lu Chen had said and done what he should do, so he would not force the two island masters Long Mu to do anything.

Given his status, if he seemed to be giving instructions, it would still make the two island owners feel disgusted.

Anyway, as long as his group is on the Island of Heroes, Lu Chen, Huang Yaoshi, and Zhou Botong together have a fighting force of the One-Destroyer level. It might be better to act according to the circumstances when the time comes.

On the other hand, Lu Chen was also extremely curious about the Taixuan Gong.

Unlike everyone else in the world, he knew how to crack Tai Xuan Gong, which was to figure out how to crack the code by studying the byte gestures and associating ideographic pictograms with various images, which would come naturally.

However, this method is only available in the original work. I don’t know if it is so effective in this world.

He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll trouble the two island owners to let us stay for a while."

The Dragonwood Island Master said cheerfully, "I'm afraid you didn't stay long enough."

……

After drinking Laba porridge, the two island masters took Lu Chen, Huang Yaoshi, Zhou Botong, and many disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect to see an unknown number of stone walls of the Knight's Path.

Actually, Li Bai does not exist in this world. This poem "Xia Ke Xing" is a completely ancient poem. It makes Lu Chen feel both unexpected and weird.

In any case, he came to the famous Xiakexing stone wall and looked down on the spot.

Xiakexing and Taixuan Gong are definitely not the same thing. Xiakexing is a larger category, while Taixuan Gong is a smaller category and is the core part of Xiakexing's magical skills.

There are a total of twenty-four sentences in "Xia Ke Xing", with a total of twenty-four stone chamber illustrations, representing twenty-four miraculous and peerless martial arts.

The fifth sentence "Kill one person every ten steps", the tenth sentence "Take off the sword and hold it horizontally in front of the knees" and the seventeenth sentence "Swish the golden hammer to save Zhao", each sentence is a set of sword techniques.

The sixth sentence "Do not stop for a thousand miles", the seventh sentence "When the task is done, I will leave with a brush of clothes", and the eighth sentence "Hide your body and name", each of them is a set of light skills; the ninth sentence "I stopped by Xinling for a drink", the fourteenth sentence "The Five Mountains are nothing in comparison", and the sixteenth sentence "Even if I die, my heroic spirit will remain fragrant", each of them is a set of boxing techniques.

The thirteenth sentence "Three cups of wine make a promise", the eighteenth sentence "Motivation and spirit are born", and the twentieth sentence "The glorious city of Daliang" are the internal skills of breathing.

The "Tai Xuan Jing" is exactly the martial arts represented by the "Baishou Tai Xuan Jing" in the last stone chamber. The illustrations are complex and subtle tadpole characters. Only illiterate people who regard it as a kind of acupuncture point map for internal force circulation can decipher this martial arts.

After mastering the Taixuan Sutra, the knight-errant could now master all kinds of martial arts naturally.

However, Lu Chen dared to guarantee that the Taixuan Sutra in this world would never be so simple.

What he could also be sure of was that the Taixuan Sutra must have been a "creation" taken from the Nine Sky Boundless World by a land immortal.

As expected, the first stone wall opened Lu Chen's eyes. On that stone wall, there was not only a line of Li Bai's poem, but a line of poem "Zhao Ke Man Hu Ying".

There was actually a portrait next to it, which was a carving of a heroic warrior in ancient attire, with bulging muscles, sword in hand, and gritting his teeth, which was very lifelike.

When Lu Chen saw the portrait, he felt an inexplicable pressure and unconsciously used his internal energy to relieve it. However, he was careless and felt his internal energy pouring towards the stone wall in front of him. He saw the hero suddenly burst into laughter, flew out of the painting, and stabbed him with a sword.

The sword was very short, but very fierce.

Lu Chen dodged with a quick move, raised his hand and struck out with a palm, colliding with the powerful force of the hero.

He was shocked in his heart, "Oh no, the enemy is coming with such force that I used all my internal strength to protect myself. This palm strike came down and hit the mountain belly of the island. The two forces collided from the inside out, and I'm afraid the entire Xiake Island will sink!"

With Lu Chen's current skills, if he fights an opponent of the same level and cannot use his remaining strength, the scope of influence cannot be underestimated.

It was fine if they were on the island, but inside the island and among the rocks, they could not withstand his violent force.

If the battle lasts for a long time, it is not impossible that the entire island will be sunk.

However, as soon as this thought came to his mind, the brave warrior burst into laughter and met the palm power with a sword.

Lu Chen then realized something was wrong and took a step back, saying, "Break!"

Everything before my eyes crackled, and countless cracks appeared, spreading one by one until they could no longer be maintained. Suddenly, they shattered like a mirror, revealing the truth behind it.

Lu Chen looked at the stone wall again. The warrior was still on the wall, gritting his teeth and looking ready to fight.

But nothing happened.

Looking at the side, Huang Yaoshi was frowning, and suddenly he tightly grasped the jade flute and woke up. There was sweat on his forehead and some horror in his eyes.

However, Zhou Botong was confused and disoriented, with his eyes tightly closed, completely immersed in it.

As for the many disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, they were also in a daze and confused, dancing with swords and fighting with the air.

Not long after, Zhou Botong suddenly yelled and sat down on the ground. Then he stood up, his white hair wet with sweat, "Who, who is this... so powerful..."

The two island masters, Longmu, watched all this happen with a smile. Seeing Lu Chen, Huang Yaoshi, and Zhou Botong wake up one after another, they were a little surprised, but also a little expectant. "You three are amazing. Now you understand the true meaning of the chivalrous journey, but this is not the end yet."

Lu Chen asked, "Is this an illusion?"

The Dragon Island Lord nodded and said, "Yes, every picture in The Knight-errant is a torment of illusion. The poem The Knight-errant, in addition to containing profound martial arts, is also a poem of earth-shattering poetic talent. It records the style of knights in different periods and civilizations. Therefore, each line of poetry represents an ancient knight."

The island master also said with emotion, "These knights were hidden in the torrent of history and were drowned. However, this poem and this martial art have captured their spirits and souls from ancient times to the present, forming an image here. It is really an incredible method."

Lu Chen turned his head to look and saw the words "Zhao Keman Huying" on the wall. He thought, "Which ancient senior master is this?"

The Dragon Island Lord said, "He is Jing Ke."

The island master sang a long song, "The wind is whistling and the Yi River is cold. Throughout history, he is the most generous and tragic person in Yan and Zhao."

Then they walked forward and came to the second stone wall. "There is no doubt that the Knight's Journey can only be considered to have passed the level after defeating these twenty-four knights. The skills of these twenty-four knights are no different from those of the challengers. It took my brother and I many years to reach the seventh level."

Lu Chen and the other two followed and saw the second stone wall, which read "Wu Gou Frost and Snow Bright". The wall next to it was a painting of a couple dancing with swords, sparkling.

The Dragon Island Lord said, "The second level is Gan Jiang and Mo Ye." (End of this chapter)
