Chapter 19 Secret Skills

Chapter 19 Secret Skills
Linjian City.

This is the city backed by the Divine Sword Sect, and many of the Divine Sword Sect’s disciples and their families live here.

In a sense, Linjian City belongs to the Divine Sword Sect. Although there are government agencies, most of the people in the government have close ties with the Divine Sword Sect.

In a restaurant.

"Senior Brother Yan."

Yi Zhong stood there with a fawning and humble look on his face.

The man sitting there was a young man in brocade clothes, with an extraordinary temperament. He took a sip of wine and said calmly, "Then Li Qian has become a formal disciple. This mission ends here."

"Uh? Senior Brother Yan, isn't Li Qian a chores disciple? How did he become a formal disciple?"

Yi Zhong's face was full of disbelief.

"Can what I said be false? Okay, you can leave now."

The young man in brocade clothes waved his hand.

Yi Zhong felt aggrieved. How many years had he worked hard to become a formal disciple?
That Li Qian had only been a menial disciple for more than two years, so how come he suddenly became a formal disciple?

"Brother Yan, you said before that you would support me."

He took a deep breath and asked quickly.

"I won't talk to you anymore. Complete this mission and get out. Also, you must not tell anyone what I asked you to do. Otherwise, you know the consequences."

The young man in brocade clothes frowned slightly, his tone slightly dissatisfied.

A mere errand disciple dared to make a request in front of him just because he needed this person before, but now he is not even worth using, so he doesn't bother to pay attention.

Doesn’t it require resources to train a menial disciple?

Although he is a formal disciple and even has an ordinary elder as his master, he is a direct disciple and his treatment and status are much better than ordinary formal disciples. It is impossible for him to give away cultivation resources for no reason.

Yi Chong is considered to be the best among the menial disciples.

But no matter how outstanding one is, it is not worth mentioning compared with the formal disciples.

Yi Zhong was shocked, knowing that he had angered this formal disciple.

He didn't dare to say anything at the moment and could only retreat.

But he was extremely sad and angry in his heart. He originally thought that he had found a strong supporter and there was hope that he would become a formal disciple in the future.

Who would have thought that hope would be cut off like this?

The main reason why he won over Zhang Mingcan on the battle power list of menial disciples was that he had the support of Senior Brother Yan who provided him with some resources for cultivation.

With his current strength, it would be extremely difficult for him to maintain his first place in the combat power list for the next two years.

In fact, the difference in strength between those at the top of the menial disciples' combat power list is not that big, and anyone can be surpassed.

Moreover, he had offended a formal disciple.

After all, he had threatened Li Qian in the bell tower.

If the other party holds a grudge, no, they will definitely hold a grudge.

He knew that if he continued to stay in the Divine Sword Sect, his future would be uncertain, so he might as well return to his hometown and inherit the family business.

As a martial artist of the first level of acquired martial arts, he is capable of supporting the family business.

at dusk.

Li Qian came to the wooden house in the valley.

"Master, I have mastered the Wuxin Sword Technique."

Li Qian said.

"Well, next, you can't just practice the inner strength and mental method alone. You must practice Wuxin Sword Technique together, and eventually achieve the goal of using swordsmanship to promote the inner strength and mental method. This is the special feature of Wuxin Sword Technique. Once you can do it, you will be able to comprehend a powerful secret technique."

Zhou Buping was not surprised that Li Qian was able to get started so quickly.

Li Qian has long been an entry-level warrior with a high level of comprehension. As long as his aptitude is up to standard, he can basically get started easily.

"Master, what is a secret technique? How is it different from a martial arts technique?"

Li Qian asked curiously.

"Internal strength is the method of cultivation, martial arts is the means of attack, and secret skills are the killer moves."

Zhou Buping said calmly: "If you want to become a true disciple, you must comprehend the secret skills. Wuxin Sword Technique is a technique that can comprehend secret skills. In my Divine Sword Sect, only the main cultivation techniques of the seven major peaks can do this. The difference is that the seven major peaks' techniques pay more attention to the aptitude of the bones and aptitudes. Only when the cultivation level is reached can it be possible to comprehend the secret skills. But even if the cultivation level of Wuxin Sword Technique is not enough, as long as the comprehension is sufficient, there is a chance to comprehend the secret skills. Do you know what this means?"

"Can you fight against opponents of higher levels?"

Li Qian said.

"Yes."

Zhou Buping showed his pride, "Everyone thinks that aptitude is the most important, but I don't think so. As long as one's comprehension is high enough, even if one's aptitude is mediocre, one can still change one's fate and reach the pinnacle of martial arts."

Why is he a gatekeeper here?

Isn't it just to find such a person?

He wanted to use facts to tell those people inside the door that he was right.

"Of course, comprehending the secret technique is only the beginning. Your real goal is to practice the Wuxin Sword Technique to perfection and comprehend the Wuxin Sword Intent."

Zhou Buping said again. "Master, I will remember this."

Li Qian said quickly.

He always felt that his master's emotions seemed to be becoming a little unstable.

After returning to the bell tower, Li Qian tried to practice Wuxin Sword Technique to match the internal strength of Wuxin Sword Technique.

But after practicing for a while, it became very difficult.

Because internal power is originally a static skill, it is almost impossible to practice internal power while practicing swordsmanship.

the next morning.

After the bell rang at the hour of Mao, with the help of the first bell of the day, Li Qian once again practiced the internal skills of Wuxin Sword Technique and cultivated the Wuxin Sword Technique.

This time, it went unusually smoothly.

As he swung the sword in his hand, the energy in his body circulated rapidly, and the sword glowed with light, revealing its sharpness.

After finishing one round of practice, Li Qian felt relaxed all over.

He quickly checked the latest information on the system interface.

Host: Li Qian.

Cultivation: Acquired (first level 64/100).

Sacrificial vessel: Chen Bell (Treasure 803/1000).

Martial arts: Sword stab punch (perfect), Wuxin sword technique (entry level 1/100).

"It actually increased by two points?"

Li Qian was very surprised.

He practiced for a whole day yesterday and only made five points of progress, one point for each big cycle.

And this time, he used the internal skills of Wuxin Sword Art to assist in practicing Wuxin Sword Art, and actually increased his progress by two points.

He had no doubt that this was the result of the combination of mental skills and swordsmanship.

Moreover, progress data of Wuxin Sword Technique also appeared.

Obviously, he was only practicing the internal skills of Wuxin Sword Jue yesterday, and did not practice Wuxin Sword Technique. In a sense, his practice was not complete.

It was not until today that he truly mastered the Wuxin Sword Technique.

"Next, it's the liver."

Li Qian smiled.

As long as there is progress, cultivation becomes easy.

So his life in the bell tower became regular again.

With the cooperation of cultivation resources, his cultivation level can increase by about ten points every day.

The progress of Wuxin Sword Technique can be increased by about six points.

In just a few days, Li Qian's cultivation successfully broke through to the second level of the acquired realm.

During this period, the errand disciple Yi Chong never appeared again.

There was no movement from the errand hall either.

On this day, Li Qian was busy weeding in the soil.

Because I was busy practicing in the past few days, I left the land to waste.

"Brother Qian, I have good news for you."

Chen Yong, who was carrying a horizontal bar up the mountain for exercise, said.

"Oh, what's the good news?"

Li Qian asked.

"Isn't Yi Zhong the one who ranks first on the battle strength list this time? I heard that he applied to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to go down the mountain and return home."

Chen Yong said.

"Going down the mountain and returning home?"

Li Qian was stunned.

Isn't this just giving up the status of a menial disciple?

what happened?

Didn't he serve a big shot in the inner sect before? Why did he suddenly give up his status as a menial disciple?

There must be a reason for this.

Perhaps this person knew that he had the status of an official disciple and was afraid of retaliation, so he chose to go down the mountain and return home?
No wonder there has been no movement from the Mentoring Hall during this period of time.

It seems that his status as a formal disciple gives him an extra layer of protection.
