I, living in the Qin Dynasty, never intended to advance.

"Brother Gai, what do you think?" Yang Chong asked.

Yang Chong was able to digest most of the Qi that Yan Ri had, but he was very curious about the eight extraordinary meridians that Gai Nie mentioned. Why did he only focus on one? The Nine Yin Manual could be regarded as the top martial arts in another world, and it could open up the eight extraordinary meridians in the body, but now Gai Nie was talking about focusing on it, and the meanings of focusing on it and opening up are different.

As far as Yang Chong knows, there is another martial art that exists in the same world as the Nine Yin Camp and is not inferior to the Nine Yin Scriptures in rank. It is the Eight Desolations and Six Directions Only I Am Supreme Kung Fu, which is a martial art that can open up the eight extraordinary meridians throughout the body and its main focus is the Three Yang Triple Burner Meridian of the Hand.

It has to be said that although Yang Chong has the Nine Yin Scriptures and the Qi Absorption Technique, he does not have a very good understanding of the martial arts system of this world because he has explored them all on his own. Now that the disciple of Guiguzi is here, it is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Yang Chong.

Sure enough, he was a fake. Yang Chong's performance made Yan Lingji more suspicious.

"The Eight Extraordinary Meridians are the general name for the Ren Meridian, Du Meridian, Chong Meridian, Dai Meridian, Yin Qiao Meridian, Yang Qiao Meridian, Yin Wei Meridian and Yang Wei Meridian. Because they are different from the twelve main meridians, they are neither directly affiliated to the internal organs nor have any exterior-interior coordination relationship. They have a different course and are therefore called extraordinary meridians," Gai Nie explained.

"The first meridian, the Ren meridian, runs along the midline of the abdomen. It intersects with the three yin meridians of the hands and feet and the Yin Wei meridian many times. It can control all the yin meridians in the body, so it is called the sea of ​​yin meridians," Wei Zhuang added.

“The second meridian, the Du meridian, runs along the middle of the back. It intersects with the three yang meridians of the hands and feet and the Yangwei meridian many times. It can govern all the yang meridians in the body, so it is called the sea of ​​yang meridians.” Gai Nie took over Wei Zhuang’s words.

"The Chong Meridian extends from the head to the feet, running through the entire body. It is the key point of Qi and blood, and can regulate the Qi and blood of the twelve meridians. Therefore, it is called the 'Sea of ​​the Twelve Meridians', also known as the Sea of ​​Blood." This time it is Wei Zhuang.

"The Dai Mai starts from the flank, goes obliquely downward to the Dai Mai point, and goes around the body like a belt. It can restrain the longitudinal meridians and is the meridian that circulates Qi." This time it was Gai Nie's turn.

Yang Chong's eyes moved left and right, up and down, on Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, and he couldn't help but wonder: Did this pair of brothers do this on purpose? Yes, they definitely did it on purpose. It was something that could be said by one person, but they had to take turns saying it.

Couldn't they see that his left shoulder was badly injured, and that every time he twisted his neck he felt a piercing pain?

For a moment, Yang Chong hated the natural evilness of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, the two disciples of Guiguzi, but he still had to listen.

Chapter 53: The Wonders of Hundreds of Martial Arts

Of course, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang couldn't see Yang Chong's mental activities, so they continued to talk to themselves. This time it was Wei Zhuang's turn: "Yin Qiao Meridian, Yang Qiao Meridian: Qiao means light and agile, and is related to speed and moves."

"The last two meridians are the Yin Wei meridian and the Yang Wei meridian: Wei means to maintain. The Yin Wei meridian maintains all the yin meridians; the Yang Wei meridian maintains all the yang meridians." Gai Nie mentioned the last two meridians.

"So that's how it is." Yang Chong understood. If that was all, then he knew that this was not what he wanted to hear.

“There are countless changes in martial arts among the various schools of thought, but no matter how they change, all the changes are within these eight extraordinary meridians.” This time Wei Zhuang saw what Yang Chong was thinking, so he continued to teach Yang Chong the orthodox martial arts heritage knowledge.

"Could it be that different martial arts focus on different directions?" Yang Chong's heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of a possibility. There are many top masters in this world, some are good at internal strength, some are good at tricks, some are good at internal strength, and some are good at external skills. I'm afraid it should be in the direction of the meridians that the martial arts focuses on. Just like the "Eight Desolations and Six Directions, I Am the Only One" skill focuses on the Three Yang San Jiao Meridians of the Hand. Because of the growth and development of the owner of this meridian, the "Eight Desolations and Six Directions, I Am the Only One" skill has the effect of rejuvenation.

“Yes, among the eight extraordinary meridians, the Ren and Du meridians are the main ones, let’s not talk about them for now. The other six meridians are Chong, Dai, Yin Yang Qiao, Yin Yang Wei. The Dai meridian is responsible for the circulation of Qi, and those with profound internal skills are all those who focus on cultivating the Dai meridian. Among the hundreds of schools of thought, Confucianism and Mohism are the most proficient, and the martial arts of the two schools are also martial arts that have developed the Dai meridian to the limit.” Gai Nie explained.

"It's indeed different!" Yang Chong said suddenly. This world is different from what he imagined, and so is the martial arts. Perhaps this is why there are so many young masters in this world, but many of them have serious biases in their studies.

“The Chong Meridian is the meridian of Qi and blood. Those who practice external skills focus on this meridian. The strongest Chong Meridian martial arts are found in the military school.” Wei Zhuang said.

“The Yin Qiao Meridian and the Yang Qiao Meridian are responsible for speed, and are divided into Yin and Yang, which means a person's speed should be determined by this. The Yang Qiao Meridian controls the speed of the limbs, and the Yin Qiao Meridian controls the sensitivity of the spirit. Anyone who wants to achieve something in martial arts moves and body techniques must focus on these two meridians.” By analogy, Yang Chong had already thought of the functions of the Yin and Yang Qiao Meridians from the explanations of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang.

"Yes, swordsmen like us, or assassins of Luowang, or thieves and assassins who follow a single lineage, mostly focus on this lineage. Among the Yin-Yang Qiao Meridian, the strongest is..." When Wei Zhuang said this, a look of pride appeared on his face. The answer was self-evident.

"A strategist." Knowing Wei Zhuang's character, Yang Chong didn't mind cooperating with Wei Zhuang. After all, what Wei Zhuang said was useful to him.

"Yes, it's us, the master of diplomacy." Wei Zhuang nodded, very satisfied with Yang Chong's cooperation. There were really not many people who could keep up with his way of speaking and rhythm.

“The final Yin-Yang Wei Meridian focuses on Yin-Yang. It seems that the strongest Yin-Yang Wei Meridian skills should be from the Taoist Tianren Sect and the Yin-Yang School.” Yang Chong said.

After all, he is a disciple of a famous family. If Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang had not said these things now, Yang Chong really would not have thought of them. He just vaguely felt that the eight extraordinary meridians guided by the Nine Yin True Qi were the Yin Wei Meridians, and they were also slightly connected to the Yang Wei Meridians. As for the specific things, he understood them.

At this time, after being enlightened by the two people, Yang Chong has already understood that the Nine Yin Scriptures also focuses on the Yin and Wei meridians, and the Nine Yin is not pure Yin.

"That's right." Gai Nie said.

"Is there any method to cultivate the eight meridians?" Yang Chong asked.

In his previous life, Yang Chong always heard about opening up the eight extraordinary meridians and the Ren and Du meridians, and he thought it meant that all eight meridians were opened. Looking back today, that understanding might be fine, but it was not deep enough.

"No, no one can cultivate all eight meridians simultaneously. A person who can achieve success in cultivating one meridian is already a genius. There is only one in ten thousand who can achieve success in cultivating two meridians simultaneously, but it takes ten years to achieve success in cultivating three meridians simultaneously. Those who cultivate four meridians simultaneously have the qualifications to conquer the world. As for those who cultivate five meridians or more simultaneously, no one can do it except a few people in the legend." Wei Zhuang said.

"And it doesn't mean that the more extraordinary meridians a practitioner has, the stronger he or she will be. Having them will only distract one's attention, and they may not be as strong as those who focus on one meridian. Moreover, no matter how many meridians one has, they still need to connect and open the Ren and Du meridians in the end." Gai Nie added.

"Then what are the Ren and Du meridians?" Yang Chong asked.

“The Ren and Du meridians are the most mysterious of the eight meridians and cannot be seen normally. Only by cultivating one of the six meridians to the extreme can one naturally connect the Ren and Du meridians, and then open up the Ren and Du meridians to feed back to the other five meridians. With this level, one can become the head of a family. If one can reach the state of perfection of all eight meridians, he can be called the master of a hundred schools. But even if he is a master of a hundred schools, he still specializes in the one he chose at the beginning.” Gai Nie explained.

"This world is truly wonderful." Yang Chong was shocked. He now had an intuitive understanding of the martial arts of this world, and his goals also became clearer.

Only at this time did Yang Chong truly understand the martial arts of this world. Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang should have mainly cultivated the Yin-Yang Qiao Meridian. Of course, there should be a third one, and they cultivated all three meridians at the same time, which is what they called the ten years of invisibility.

People like Bai Feng and Mo Ya should focus on the Yang Qiao Meridian and body speed, but because the Yin Qiao Meridian is not well cultivated, Bai Feng's speed is obviously faster than Wei Zhuang, but he cannot avoid the shark-tooth sword in Wei Zhuang's hand. Mo Ya should have cultivated the Yang Qiao Meridian to the extreme at this time, touching the Ren Meridian of the Ren and Du Meridians, which has the Yin Meridian Sea. So while he is good at speed, he is also proficient in illusion, and integrates illusion into his body movements, which makes him even more weird and, of course, stronger.

“Therefore, the main meridian you cultivate can basically determine the path a person will take in his life, so you must be extremely careful.” Gai Nie reminded.

He could see that Yang Chong had accumulated a large amount of true energy because of the strange technique and was about to open up the eight extraordinary meridians. He was worried that Yang Chong would make a mistake, so he took the initiative to remind him. In case the main meridians he practiced were not consistent with the technique he practiced, he would only get half the result with twice the effort.

This was not because Gai Nie loved helping others at this moment, but purely because he saw his own kind and hoped to meet another legend in the future.

After all, Gai Nie is still a young man just starting out, not the swordsman who will enter middle age and pursue the "chivalrous way" in the future.

"Thank you." Yang Chong said, and this time his thanks were sincere.

Hei Bai Xuan Jian looked at the three young men who were talking, but he couldn't get a word in for a while. He was a self-taught man, and although his martial arts skills were better than those of Zong Heng and the other two at the moment, when it comes to his understanding of martial arts, he was not as good as Zong Heng and the other two who were from Guiguzi's school.

However, Hei Bai Xuan Jian, who was willing to sacrifice everything for revenge, was also a person who valued kindness. After seeing the blood-stained shoulder of Yang Chong, he gestured to the Black Widow who had returned but was seriously injured, and then said to Yang Chong: "You can let the Black Widow sew up the wound on your shoulder."

The Black Widow's ruthless silk can not only be used as a weapon to kill people. As a former embroiderer, she is also good at surgical skills such as suturing wounds.

"That would be troublesome." Yang Chong, who did not think that Hei Bai Xuan Jian would do anything bad to him at this time, agreed.

The sword strike by General Bi was so powerful that it pierced into the bone. If she was not an expert in treating external injuries, Yang Chong would not have dared to let her treat him. However, Black Widow was a killer and a former embroiderer. With the approval of Black and White Xuan Jian, she should be able to do it.

Chapter 54 From now on, I am also a master

Under the setting sun, Weijiazhuang fell into sorrow and misery. The black and white Xuan Jian and Luowang had retreated, but the dead could not be resurrected. Almost every family in Weijiazhuang had a funeral.

However, these have nothing to do with Yang Chong. He is powerless to change anything, nor does he have the mind to change other people's tragedies. As long as he can prevent tragedy from happening to himself and the people he cares about, he should be thankful for it. How can he have the ability or the mind to care about other people's tragedies?

In a cave, Yang Chong, who was blocked by a sudden rainstorm, sat in front of the fire lit by Yan Lingji, and turned the surging true energy in his body to impact the Yin and Yang meridians in his eight extraordinary meridians. Except for the Ren and Du meridians among the eight extraordinary meridians, there is no distinction between strong and weak. Naturally, it is best to practice the one that best suits one's aptitude and martial arts. As the culmination of Taoist martial arts, the Nine Yin Scriptures naturally follows the same route as Taoism and Yin-Yang School. Yang Chong has no interest in it, nor does he have the energy to innovate.

Yan Lingji leaned against the stone wall, looking at Yang Chong in boredom, her eyes wandering.

Yan Lingji didn't expect that the gamble with his life that Yang Chong mentioned was actually to hunt down Luo Wang in reverse. The powers of two killer-level killers and one first-class killer were actually obtained by Yang Chong.

Even though Yang Chong has not yet completely digested the power he stole from Yanri, his Qi cultivation has already reached an extremely terrifying level. As long as Yang Chong opens up the Yin Wei Meridian, he will be able to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.

His current internal strength is the bet for his victory, right? However, if I had not rushed to Weijiazhuang to help him hold back the two assassins, could he have won against three assassins alone? He certainly could not win. If you fight against one assassin, you will be seriously injured. If you fight against three assassins, you will definitely die. So you can't win your bet at all?

But then again, was my decision to rush to Weijiazhuang also within your expectations? Are you sure that I will go to Weijiazhuang to help you? Yan Lingji looked at Yang Chong and immediately denied this possibility. If Yang Chong really predicted things, then she, Yan Lingji, would be in danger. She didn't like being controlled from beginning to end, and even thought about it and felt terrible.

"It shouldn't be possible. If I didn't feel sorry for you, I wouldn't help you." Yan Lingji muttered to herself, denying the almost absurd guess in her mind.

Just thinking of the word "pitiful", Yan Lingji couldn't help but frown again.

She thought of the secret she heard from Yang Lin and Qi Fu, the secret about Yang Chong's life experience.

The man who raised me and whom I had called my father for more than ten years turned out to be a fake. The so-called father-son relationship was a conspiracy from beginning to end. When Yan Lingji thought of the truth about Yang Chong's life experience, she felt sad for Yang Chong.

"Should I tell him this cruel truth?" Yan Lingji hesitated. She felt that there were countless people in the world, but there were very few as unlucky as Yang Chong.

The person closest to me actually has other intentions.

"Alas, poor little thief." Yan Lingji sighed softly, feeling deeply sympathetic towards Yang Chong's experience.

Yan Lingji was thinking about Yang Chong's misfortune and wondering whether to tell him the truth, while Yang Chong put all his attention on cultivation.

The world's number one energy-absorbing technique is strong in every aspect except for one thing, which is conversion efficiency. Even if Yang Chong absorbed all the internal energy of two killer-level killers, Qian Sha and Jiang Junbi, and added most of the internal energy of Yan Ri, a first-class killer, he could only open two extraordinary meridians and barely touch the Ren and Du meridians. You must know that even without Qian Sha and Jiang Junbi, Yan Ri himself had opened at least three extraordinary meridians, including one Qiao meridian and the Ren and Du meridians, and his internal energy was extraordinary.

But even with such a huge amount of internal energy, after being plundered by Yang Chong, it could only be used by Yang Chong to completely open up two extraordinary meridians and touch the third one. It was a blatant waste.

Fortunately, Yang Chong is content with what he has. Compared with the step-by-step practice of the Nine Yin True Qi, the opportunities brought to him by the Power Absorption Technique are priceless. If it weren't for the Power Absorption Technique, it would be almost impossible for Yang Chong to reach his current state without several years. You know, the current Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang are only slightly stronger than him in terms of internal strength.

Therefore, Yang Chong was content. Although he was greedy, he was rational.

As the Nine Yin Qi flowed, Yang Chong guided them to impact the Yin and Yang meridians. The twelve main meridians formed their own systems, but each operated independently. The Qi was scattered and difficult to coordinate. Although there was a huge amount, it could not achieve qualitative improvement. Without coordination, no matter how much Qi there was, they were just scattered soldiers. Only with coordination could they become a real army.

More importantly, each of the eight extraordinary meridians has its own personality. Once they are opened, the true Qi can be transformed through the eight extraordinary meridians, transforming into true Qi that belongs to the individual. The characteristics of the true Qi can then be condensed into intention and gathered into momentum. At that time, you will become a true master who can dominate a place.

So, Yang Chong still has a long way to go.

Under repeated impacts, Yang Chong's whole body shook, his muscles were tense and veins popped out at his temples, and then his whole body trembled, and he was completely relaxed. The tension turned into comfort, and a new kind of true energy rushed along the Yin-Yang meridians to a mysterious area in the body. Yang Chong knew that it was the Du meridian among the Ren and Du meridians.

However, at this point the true energy has a feeling of being exhausted, and it still needs a little more to be fully penetrated.

But since then, the twelve meridians have been coordinated and have formed their own system when operating. Although it cannot achieve endless circulation, it can achieve repetitive circulation.

"Successful?" Yan Lingji asked hurriedly when she saw Yang Chong open his eyes, with concern in her words.

"I succeeded. From now on, I am barely qualified to roam the world." Yang Chong said with a smile.

As expected, the Qi-absorbing Dafa is the biggest cheating device for cultivation. As a time traveler, the golden finger must be standard. However, the Qi-absorbing Dafa should focus on the belt meridian, and it is time to put it on the agenda. If I cultivate the three meridians at the same time, I can also be a person who cannot be seen for ten years. Yang Chong thought in his heart.

"Congratulations." Yan Lingji was also sincerely happy for Yang Chong.

"Hey, master." Yang Chong smiled brilliantly, waving his palm to form a claw. The true energy wrapped around his fingertips, making them sharper. He slashed towards the mountain wall next to him. Although it did not touch the mountain wall, the sharp claw force had already left five deep scratches on the mountain wall.

The five fingers exert force, which is invincible, and can destroy the enemy's head like wearing away rotten soil. Up to this moment, Yang Chong has truly achieved the description of the Nine Yin Divine Claws in the Nine Yin Manual.

"Is your Nine Yin Divine Claw so powerful?" Yan Lingji was shocked when she saw the deep claw marks on the mountain wall. The Nine Yin Scriptures were no longer a secret to her, but she couldn't help but be frightened when she saw the power of the Nine Yin Bone Claw. If it were to grab a person, it would break bones and tendons. It was sharper than a sword.

“So Yan Lingji must practice well. Don’t just know how to use illusions and fire. Once they are broken, you will become a lamb to be slaughtered. Moreover, it now has a new name, the Nine Yin Divine Claw.” Yang Chong advised kindly.

Yan Lingji’s talent is obviously very strong, but she can only bully weak opponents. Once she meets a master, she will be at a loss. There is a reason for this.

Chapter 55 The cruel truth

"This little thief has grown wings and is now teaching me a lesson." Yan Lingji's face darkened. Was she being looked down upon?

"I dare not, I dare not. Thank you very much for your help this time." Yang Chong waved his hands repeatedly.

No matter what, Yan Lingji did help her a lot this time, and Yang Chong must remember this friendship. Of course, Yang Chong also owed a favor to Yan Lingji, and Yan Lingji's help was largely just out of gratitude, but it was also a response after all.

"If I didn't go, wouldn't you have lost? It's called a gamble on your life, but it's a life-and-death situation. Are you gambling? You're simply courting death." Yan Lingji then remembered what she wanted to say before.

Not to mention Yang Chong's situation at that time, even with Yang Chong's current strength, if the same thing happened again, Yan Lingji did not think that Yang Chong could win. You have to know that there were three Luowang's first-class killers in Weijia Village before, and there was also Zongheng, who was powerful and cooperated with each other as well as Luowang's first-class killers. Any one of them had the strength to kill Yang Chong.

"If I don't go, I will be dead in the future." Yang Chong smiled complacently, not caring about the previous danger at all. No matter how dangerous it was, it was over. If he needed to choose again, Yang Chong would still make the same decision, because he had no better choice at all, and he won the bet.

Now he has opened up two of the eight extraordinary meridians and touched the third one. His martial arts can be considered to have made some progress. Jingwei has also retreated. She has to escort Yanri back to Xianyang and has no energy to take care of herself in the short term. The threat of the Jingwei sword will have to go away for at least three months. This is the reward for his life-threatening gamble.

"What's the matter with your wife?" Yan Lingji asked with a frown. Yan Lingji knew that the silver-faced female killer had an engagement with Yang Chong, but it was just an engagement. However, she remembered that Yang Chong called her wife.

Did something happen during the time Yang Chong was trapped in Weijia Village? You know, a fiancée and a wife are not the same thing, the difference between them is huge.

"A wife is a wife, but, hehe, she probably can't take care of me for now. I'm just very curious about how she will kill me next?" Yang Chong said with a smile, even looking forward to it.

The pressure that Jingwei brought to him at the beginning was quite a lot. Of course, the gentle world she created was also tempting enough.
