"I will teach you a set of magical skills, which will allow you to easily defeat Yu Canghai in a short period of time. But... this will come at a price."
"It won't make you lack anything, but when it is refined, you will need to burn your life and everything you have in exchange for power..."
"In short, he will shorten your life and make you suffer. This is the price of rapid power."
He could indeed help Lin Pingzhi briefly, but he couldn't help him all the time. He was pathetic, but not the most pathetic, not to mention that a copy of the Sword Manual of Exorcism and the weight of being pleasing to the eye were not enough to make Xia Lang his nanny.
Giving him a chance to gain power was the fairest decision Xia Lang had ever made. Of course, the price he paid could be high... or low.
"Then why don't you teach me tonight?"
"No, no, no, what you need to remember today is a simple thing - I want you to learn how to block a few of your meridian points. This way, even though you still can't stop your internal energy from burning after you've mastered this magical skill, you can greatly delay the process and... give you a chance to regret."
As Xia Lang spoke, he pressed his fingers on two acupuncture points on Lin Pingzhi's body and input a mantra into Lin Pingzhi's mind.
"The peaks above the clouds swallow the moon with their aura; the springs gushed out in front of the flowers under the moon; I am the only one who speaks in heaven and on earth..."
Lin Pingzhi closed his eyes and listened, trying hard to engrave all the content into his mind. At the same time, he unconsciously began to transfer his energy to the two acupoints that Xia Lang had just pressed on his body!
The Yuequan Sect's mental method is different from the Central Plains martial arts. It does not emphasize peace and balance and repetition, but gathers the upper and lower body's qi and meridians to the acupuncture points required by the martial arts, from the inside out, and then from the outside in. It increases the power of martial arts moves several times, but the price is that there will be a weakness when making moves.
However, these are naturally insignificant to this old monster Yue Quanhuai. The absolute capacity and quality of his internal force can suppress all problems. Especially when he has reached the level of illusion and transformation, making his internal force substantial and able to repair himself infinitely, he has already surpassed the realm of most martial artists.
He helped Lin Pingzhi by using the same method—only, he used a slightly more radical approach.
"Remember this method. After you defeat Yu Canghai tomorrow, you must frequently seal these two acupoints. This will alleviate your pain and exhaustion. Of course... it will also give you a chance to regret."
Xia Lang patted Lin Pingzhi's shoulder, who was still thinking about the past with his eyes closed, and looked at the moonlit sky outside, saying quietly:
"Hey, it's easy to help you, but I don't know who can help me here..."

Volume 15: Xia Lang’s various time travels: Chapter 14 . [Smiling Proudly] Retiring from the underworld, this is no longer an ordinary gangster sect!
There are undercurrents in Hengshan City today.
Originally, today was the retirement ceremony of Liu Zhengfeng of the Hengshan Sect. Hengshan City was filled with jubilation, and the Five Mountains Sword Sect even sent many disciples and some people from the martial arts world to join in the fun, making it quite festive.
But who would have thought that what happened the day before the retirement meeting would cast a shadow over the entire Hengshan City.
In that group of jade courtyards, it was said that the head of the Huashan Sect, the head of the Hengshan Sect, and Taoist Tiansong of Mount Tai were attacked by what were suspected to be demons from the evil cult.
The evil cult's methods were ruthless and extremely mysterious, but more importantly, his skills seemed to be the legendary Star-Absorbing Technique!
As the previous leader of the Sun Moon Sect, Ren Woxing had had many dealings with the Five Mountains Sword Sect. And because of this, the fame of his Star Absorbing Technique remained undiminished even after Ren Woxing's disappearance for more than a decade!
Although not many of the new generation of disciples have heard of the legend of the Star-Absorbing Art, which one of the older sects was not warned about the deadly Star-Absorbing Art by their own senior masters?
For these warriors, absorbing other people's internal energy and seizing other people's martial arts skills are more difficult to accept than death.
This situation made many disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect in Hengshan City feel indignant and united against the enemy, but many people also coveted the lost and reappeared magic skills...
In short, in this undercurrent environment, the retirement conference was held.
Yu Canghai, with a Sima face, brought the few remaining disciples of Qingcheng Sect to attend the conference, while Yue Buqun, who had been warned like him, looked normal.
On the one hand, he was indeed good at disguise, and on the other hand - he probably felt that with so many fellow martial artists here, the evil cult monster would definitely not dare to invade rashly.
Soon, a large number of guests gathered at the gate of Liu's mansion. There were hundreds of people bustling around, including those from the Five Mountains Sword Sect and other gangs such as the Beggars' Sect. As for second- and third-rate sects such as the Haisha Gang, there were even quite a few people.
From this perspective, Liu Zhengfeng's popularity and reputation are indeed quite high. And looking at his huge Liu Mansion in Hengshan City, it can also be said that this guy's status in the secular world is definitely not low.
Liu Zhengfeng was in the crowd, moving back and forth, toasting each other, and smiling, looking very tactful.
He looks more like a nobleman than a martial arts hero.
Just as the guests from the Five Mountains Sword Sect and other sects were seated and Liu Zhengfeng was greeting everyone one by one, there was a loud sound of gongs and drums, and a eunuch in official uniform walked into the Liu Mansion with an air of arrogance and came up to Liu Zhengfeng.
Amid many surprised looks, Liu Zhengfeng knelt on one knee in front of the eunuch without hesitation, and the eunuch took a scroll from the yamen runner behind him, opened it, and read loudly:
"Hengshan Liu Zhengfeng listens to your orders!"
"The Emperor of Fengtian Chengyun proclaims: According to the report of the Hunan Provincial Governor, Liu Zhengfeng of Hengshan is a man of public service and righteousness, who has made contributions to his hometown, and is skilled in archery and horsemanship, and is a man of great use. He is hereby appointed as a lieutenant general, and will serve the court in the future, and will not disappoint me. I decree this!!!"
"Your humble servant Liu Zhengfeng, kowtows to thank the Holy Spirit for His Grace!"
Amidst a mixture of surprise and contempt, Liu Zhengfeng accepted the imperial edict without hesitation and officially announced that he had become a member of the "court lackeys".
Such behavior naturally attracted contemptuous looks from people in the world, and some even turned around and left without hesitation.
There is no way. Throughout the dynasties, the relationship between the imperial court and the martial arts world cannot be said to be as hostile as fire and water, but they definitely hate each other. The more powerful the dynasty is in control of the local areas, the less room these martial arts sects will be given to survive.
Otherwise, why do you think the most prosperous era for martial arts was the weak Song Dynasty?
The imperial court was a huge and invisible existence. The people of Jianghu despised the imperial court, but they could not ignore it. All they could do was to show contempt for Liu Zhengfeng who joined the imperial court.
"My fellow martial artists, I, Liu Zhengfeng, was favored by my mentor and became a disciple of Henshan. Unfortunately, I was not able to bring glory to the Hengshan sect. Fortunately, Senior Brother Mo is in charge of the Hengshan sect. I, Liu Zhengfeng, have been mediocre and have done nothing. From today on, I will retire from the martial arts world and focus on my official career! If I disobey you, I will be punished by this sword!"
After saying that, Liu Zhengfeng drew out his sword from under his robe, and with both hands he exerted force to break it. With a crisp sound, he easily broke the tempered steel sword.
The sword blade sank several inches into the bluestone slab, and Liu Zhengfeng's display of such skill also made everyone in the martial arts world understand that Liu Zhengfeng was still a top-notch master in the world!
Seeing that no one was going to come and settle the score with him, Liu Zhengfeng smiled and walked to the golden basin, rolled up his sleeves, and just before he put his hands into the water -
"Master Liu, wait a minute!!!"
A loud shout came from outside the door, and then four people strode in and stood on both sides of Liu Zhengfeng. The leader, a tall man in yellow, walked in from the middle, holding a five-colored flag inlaid with gems.
Everyone present recognized the flag displaying the Five Mountains Sword Sect's Left Alliance Leader, and the people from the Five Mountains Sword Sect's faces changed as they guessed what was going to happen next!
"According to the order of the Left Alliance Leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Uncle Liu's retirement ceremony will be postponed for the time being!"
Liu Zhengfeng's face changed, but before he could speak, the eunuch next to him screamed
"How dare you, a rude commoner, order an official of the imperial court to do something! Are you planning to rebel!!!"
Seeing such a big hat being put on him, Shi Dengda, one of the Thirteen Guardians of Songshan Sect, also looked stern. But before he could say anything, he saw a silver star from the roof hitting the eunuch!
The one who made the move was none other than Fei Lin, the Great Songyang Hand who was standing on the roof!
Tang suddenly changed, who could react? This eunuch had no martial arts skills, so facing such a sudden attack, he would be in a dilemma of life and death.
But Liu Zhengfeng would never just stand there and watch. Although he no longer had a sword in his hand, he still grabbed the eunuch's shoulder and pushed him hard, trying to save him from the fatal dart.
"Junior Brother Fei, you are too cruel!!!"
Liu Zhengfeng stared at Fei Lin who jumped off the roof, while the famous San Taibao of Songshan Sect floated down, glanced at the eunuch who was still in shock, and bowed slightly.
"By order of the leader, Senior Brother Liu is not allowed to retire today!"
Such behavior has already written targeting and tyranny on their faces! Not to mention Liu Zhengfeng, the other people from the Five Mountains Sword Sect also showed anger on their faces.
When he saw that the time had come, Stendar immediately shouted
"Brother Wan, bring the person out!!!"
He faced the back hall, and Liu Zhengfeng's face changed drastically when he spoke like this! But strangely, after he shouted for ten breaths, there was still no one responding.
Just when Stendar was showing doubt, a handsome young man suddenly walked out with a strong look of contempt on his face. But it was undoubtedly the presence of the person behind him that made the faces of the people here change suddenly.
"Stop yelling, country bumpkin. I've already taken care of all those little brothers of yours."
Xia Lang walked out slowly, speaking in a relaxed and cheerful manner, glancing at everyone here, focusing his gaze on the eunuch, stroking his chin with a playful expression.
"Oh my, is there really such a thing? I didn't understand it before. Where on earth did you Songshan Sect get the courage to do such a thing?"
Before Liu Zhengfeng retired from the martial arts world, he used some unknown means to get himself the position of Lieutenant General. However, after receiving the imperial edict, the people of Songshan Sect dared to wipe out Liu Zhengfeng's entire family?
Damn it, is the imperial court fake!!!
Although the Ming Dynasty inherited the dog-like behavior of the Song Dynasty, and the civil officials basically trampled the military officials to death, the military officials had a low status, which was only compared to the civil officials who were involved in huge interest groups including gentry and other aristocratic families.
Compared with ordinary people, or these vibrant social groups, military generals are still the masters who are high above everyone else!
What is the rank of a lieutenant general? That is a real third-grade military rank! In the Ming Dynasty, his status was second only to that of a general and a deputy general. He was responsible for military duties in various places. It can be said that he was only two steps away from being a local lord like Li Chengliang and Wu Sangui.
Even if this is a purchased honorary title, it is definitely not something that can be humiliated casually. You suddenly come to kill the entire family of a third-rank official? Even if he is a military general, the court will never sit idly by!
The civil officials' targeting of the military commanders is their internal struggle, but how dare you, the unruly people outside, do such a thing? It would be an easy punishment if I don't wipe out your entire family!
Moreover, the current emperor is Wanli, who is considered to be an irritable emperor among the emperors of the Zhu family. Xia Lang simply couldn't believe that he could tolerate such a slap in the face, especially from a mere Songshan Sect.
Well, all in all, today was not only fun to watch, but he was also able to answer questions that had been on his mind for a long time.
"You are my fellow disciple from Songshan Sect?"
Stendar's face changed and he asked sternly, but the way he drew his sword showed that he was not deaf.
"I've already told you, I killed them all." Xia Lang picked his ears, blew a breath, and said nonchalantly.
"Since they have already attacked other people's women and children, it would be a social responsibility to kill such a thing."
"I will kill the demon from the Demon Cult—"
Shi Tenda's face changed and he wanted to draw his sword suddenly, but in the next moment, in full view of everyone, his face suddenly froze, and then his whole body exuded an unparalleled chill!
He could no longer utter any words, because every drop of liquid in his body had been frozen. In front of everyone's horrified gaze, he quickly turned into a human-shaped ice sculpture emitting a chill.
"What kind of method is this?!"
Fei Lin, who was closest to the scene, had a look of disbelief on his face - he didn't see any signs of the man in front of him taking action at all, and just so suddenly, his junior brother turned into an ice sculpture!
Even his senior brother Zuo Lengchan's icy Qi needed to be used with fists and feet close to the body! And it could only freeze other people's meridians, and it would never have such a miraculous effect!
"Whether you are in harmony with your faction or not, fighting or not, it has nothing to do with me."
Xia Lang said lazily, pointing his finger at Yu Canghai who was still trying to hide in the crowd, and said with a playful smile
"The person I'm looking for is you - Shorty, do you want to come out on your own, or do you want me to catch you?"
At this point, Yu Canghai could only walk out of the crowd with a gloomy face. But he didn't seem that scared, or perhaps it was the unique characteristic of martial artists that their faces were more important than their lives, so he couldn't show his fear.
"You evil cult monster! We have so many righteous martial artists here, if you come in, you will be killed without a single drop of life!!!"
Yu Canghai shouted loudly and immediately pulled everyone around him onto his chariot. The martial artists who reacted, especially those from the Five Mountains Sword Sect, immediately cast unfriendly eyes at Xia Lang.
"Why don't you just say that we don't need to talk about the code of conduct and fight side by side? Shorty, you disappoint me."
Who would have thought that despite Yu Canghai's threats and being in such a dangerous situation, Xia Lang would still act frivolous, shaking his legs and jokingly looking at the person in front of him.
"Tsk tsk tsk, oh my, you people, what's the right path or not? I think if we kill them all, there must be some who were killed by mistake, but if we kill every other one, there will definitely be a lot of fish that slip through the net."
"How dare you! How dare you, a member of the Demonic Cult, to hurt someone here? I will never forgive you!!!"
At this point, the Songshan Sect could no longer stand by and watch! Led by Fei Lin, Ding Mian, Lu Bai and other Songshan Sect masters immediately attacked together, and the three swords formed a gust of wind, instantly locking Xia Lang's side!
The heroes were dazzled by the sight, and when they saw the swords and knives being thrown at them, they could not help but cheer, thinking that this devil was going to die on the spot!!!
But the next moment, something happened that no one could have imagined - or rather, something that was simply incomprehensible!
Just before the swords and knives were about to strike, ten silver-blue shadows transformed into solid human forms in front of the people of Songshan Sect, holding the same silver-blue swords, and completely blocked them.
It was not an illusion, nor a dream, but a real attack on them.
At this moment, Xia Lang jokingly said the name of this move.
"Dark Dream Immortal Body, go~~~"
Volume 16: Xia Lang's Various Time Travels: Chapter 15, . [Smiling Proudly] Qiu Yang Magical Skill
Illusions and illusions are transformed into living beings, and false things can also be condensed into substance.
This is the realm that Yue Quanhuai realized and reached when his Garuda magic skill reached its peak. It can also be said that his internal strength and martial arts have been completely transformed into another form.
The internal force understood by warriors is Qi, which is the power condensed and wrapped around the body and weapons. It may also be the Qi force that causes damage after leaving the body!
But even the Tianlong Sweeping Monk, who can create a three-foot-high wall of air, cannot transcend the invisible understanding of this air.
Internal force is invisible, this is the consensus of all of them. Perhaps internal force can be transformed into various incredible physical reactions, such as fire, ice, thunder and lightning, but in the end it is still in a state that cannot be touched by matter.
But this illusion was created, but it tested the complete "condensation" of the internal force.
Internal force, true qi, no matter how this energy is described, he can already freely shape the appearance he wants in reality according to Yue Quanhuai's thoughts.
Whether it is the five elements that evolve from the moon, or the wings that transform into Garuda, or even this move now... the Dark Dream Fairy Sword.
At first, this move was just the sword technique passed down by Yuequan Sect, but as Yuequan Huai's internal strength grew, gradually, he was no longer obsessed with using the sword himself, but condensed his internal strength into the Dark Dream Immortal Body, letting them use the sword.
Clone, external incarnation, tangible energy, no matter how you understand it, these are all proof of the power of Yuequanhuai's martial arts.
As for Xia Lang, he used this move because he inherited everything from Yue Quanhuai, including his knowledge of martial arts.
But he knew the principle behind it, but for the martial artists in this world... it was still a little too exciting.
