Under One Person: Dressed as Lü Liang, with vests all over

Chapter 23: The Road to Advanced Double Hands (Please Read!)
At night, in the dense forest behind Longhu Mountain.

Lu Liang lifted the vines and walked into the cave.

With the light from the mobile phone screen, he could see the situation in the cave clearly.

Inside the cave, Lin Yin was still lying in the same position, breathing steadily and sleeping peacefully.

Lu Liang did not waste any time and walked straight to Lin Yin's side and squatted down. Then, he stretched out his right hand, letting the light blue Qi flow out from his palm and sink into Lin Yin's forehead.

The invisible "blue hand" explored Lin Yin's soul, and fragments of Lin Yin's past memories flashed quickly.

Lu Liang quickly filtered out the information he wanted to find.

"Have it!"

His eyes lit up, and he accurately locked onto a memory and copied it.

That memory slowly condensed into a small ball of memory energy and was easily taken out.

Then, Lü Liang sat cross-legged, pinching the Qi ball in his right hand and slowly placing it between his eyebrows. The Qi ball automatically sank into his forehead, and vivid images appeared in his mind.

This was the scene where Lin Yin was talking with Liu Jingtian, the leader of Jishiditang, before setting off for Longhu Mountain.

……

In the front hall of Jishidi Hall, a plaque hangs high in the middle. The plaque is made of thick texture and the wood grain is clearly visible. The four words "Xuanhu Jishi" are written on it.

Liu Jingtian sat upright on the big chair in the center, looking at Lin Yin who was sitting below him.

"Xiaoyin, you will be the representative of Jishitang on this trip to Mount Longhu."

Lin Yin nodded and responded, "I heard that the old Heavenly Master attaches great importance to this conference. There are also heirs of the Qi Body Origin School participating. There must be many extraordinary people going to watch the excitement this time."

"Yes," Liu Jingtian nodded slightly, his hand gently stroking his beard. "Although everyone says they are going to show their support for the Heavenly Master, I'm afraid many of them are going for the newly-born Eight Wonders."

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

Curiosity flashed in Lin Yin's eyes, "Master, are these eight unique skills really that powerful?"

"Before, I had only heard of the Feng family's Soul Binding and General Dispatching and the Tongtian Talisman mastered by Old Man Lu Jin. I didn't expect there would be another source of Qi."

"I wonder if our Xinglin lineage has such a unique skill?"

Upon hearing this question, Liu Jingtian's originally calm expression changed instantly. His lips moved slightly, but he seemed to be hesitant to speak, and ultimately did not say anything more.

After a moment's silence, he turned to Lin Yin and solemnly warned him, "When you arrive at Longhu Mountain, you must spend more time with Zhang Chulan."

"Master," Lin Yin said, a strange expression flashing across his face upon hearing this. He asked doubtfully, "You don't want the source of Qi as well, do you?"

"What do I need that for!"

When Liu Jingtian heard this, he was so angry that his beard trembled a few times, and he blew his beard and glared at him and scolded him.

After a while, he sighed helplessly and explained:

"Zhang Chulan's grandfather and a senior from Jishiditang were old acquaintances and had a good relationship. Zhang Chulan is at the center of the turmoil this time, so if you can help him, please do so."

"Don't worry, Master." Lin Yin nodded in agreement, "I'll make a note of it."

"Well, if there's nothing else, then go back and pack your luggage and get ready to leave as soon as possible."

Liu Jingtian waved his hand slightly, indicating that Lin Yin could leave.

Lin Yin responded and stood up to go out, but just as he was about to step out of the front hall, he suddenly heard Liu Jingtian's shouting from behind him.

"Xiao Yin, wait!"

Lin Yin stopped when he heard the voice, turned around and asked in confusion, "Master, what's wrong?"

Liu Jingtian's expression turned serious, and he warned in a solemn tone: "If you see the Lu family in Longhu Mountain, remember to stay away from them!"

"The Lu family? The Lu family from the Ten Lords, Lu Ci? Why?" Lin Yin asked.

"Don't ask so many questions, just do it!"

……

Lu Liang opened his eyes and came back to his senses from the memory. The situation was pretty much as he had guessed. Lin Yin didn't know anything about the Lu family and Duanmu Ying, but Liu Jingtian, the head of Jishitang, clearly knew something.

Lu Liang thought about it, and the light blue Qi flow in his palm surged out again, turning into a small blue hand, reaching into Lin Yin's forehead.

This time, he had a clear goal and focused on searching for the footage of Liu Jingtian and Lin Yin's past daily conversations.

Soon, a memory caught his attention.

In this memory, Lin Yin was only about seven or eight years old, and Liu Jingtian was giving him enlightenment.

"Xiaoyin, remember the Qi you just felt. This is the beginning of cultivation."

"..."

"Our Jishitang's martial arts also emphasize the dual cultivation of body and soul."

"When the Qi meridians are still and the primordial spirit is contained within, this is called true nature; when the mind is still and the primordial Qi grows within, this is called true destiny."

"The two complement each other, interdependent, just like the two wheels of a car or the two wings of a bird; neither can be missing."

"Master, is it okay to cultivate nature first and then destiny? Or vice versa, cultivate destiny first and then nature?" Lin Yin asked crisply, tilting his head, his face full of confusion.

"Of course it's all possible." Liu Jingtian nodded and smiled, explaining patiently.

"The path of cultivation is inherently diverse. Starting with nature and then destiny, progressing step by step, can help you stabilize your mind and build a solid foundation. Starting with destiny and then nature can also quickly strengthen your body and accumulate strength."

"But to reach the legendary realm, one must balance both, preserving both life and death."

Lin Yin seemed to understand what he said, his little face wrinkled and he looked up with a confused expression.

"Master, what is the legendary realm?"

"The realm that practitioners dream of and yearn for their entire lives is the state of immortality and ascension."

Liu Jingtian stroked his beard with a distant look in his eyes.

"First, start with life skills, which can transform essence into qi, then calm the mind, transform qi into spirit, and finally transform spirit into emptiness."

"And first, you can concentrate your mind and cultivate your nature, then you can refine your essence and cultivate your life, and finally shatter the void."

At this point, Liu Jingtian paused slightly, a trace of loneliness flashed across his face, and he sighed softly, "But even this, your teacher, cannot do it yet."

"Master, did you come up with these?"

Lin Yin's eyes suddenly lit up, his face full of amazement and admiration, and he looked up and asked.

"No." Liu Jingtian shook his head slowly, "It was a senior who realized it. She is the true genius in the sect."

"She was extremely bold. She cleverly combined her family's inherited skills, the orthodox methods of Jishiditang, and many theories of Western medicine to form her own theory."

"What I just told you is based on the theory she summarized back then."

"so smart?"

Young Lin Yin opened his eyes wide, his mouth slightly open, his surprise evident in his words.

Filled with curiosity, he looked up and asked, "Then Master, where is this formidable senior now?"

"She..." Liu Jingtian's voice became low and he paused after saying just one word.

After a moment, he slowly waved his hand and said, "Alright, Xiaoyin, you can go down first. Master will continue teaching you tomorrow."

"Yes." Lin Yin responded obediently.

Before leaving, he looked back.

He saw Liu Jingtian seemed to take out a yellowed book from the bookshelf, holding it in both hands and flipping through it, with an expression of sadness that he had never seen before.

……

Memory stops here.
