Narration System for the Journey of Martial Arts

The little beggar who had spoken earlier snorted, looking disdainful, and said, "If someone who's in the martial arts world doesn't know martial arts, he'll get beaten to death sooner or later if he's out there."

The girl nodded without saying much, and said, "Old man, I have built a nursing home in the east of the city. If you have nowhere to go, go there to find me. At least you can have three meals a day and a place to stay."

As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, opened it to reveal two plain steamed buns inside, and handed them to the clay Buddha, saying, "Here, have these."

The clay bodhisattva was taken aback. He stared at the girl for a moment, and she nodded without flinching.

The clay bodhisattva suddenly chuckled, as if something strange had happened.

Just as the clay bodhisattva was laughing strangely, the lid of the basket on his back was suddenly pushed open, revealing a fiery red head. After looking around, the red shadow flashed and it was already in the girl's arms. With a swift movement, it reached out and picked up a plain steamed bun and started eating it, making a 'squeak' sound.

The girl and the few beggars were startled. After calming down, they realized that what they were holding was a bright red monkey, whose fur danced like flames in the breeze.

"Ah? A monkey!" the little beggars exclaimed, staring in astonishment at the strange beast.

The girl was startled, then examined it carefully for a moment before asking in surprise, "A fire monkey?"

………………

"Hey hey hey!"

The clay bodhisattva looked at the fire monkey and smiled, saying:

"This beast is a creature of heaven and earth, feeding on poisonous things. And the most poisonous thing in the world, besides divine punishment, is the poison of the human heart; therefore, it can sense the most poisonous things in the world, and it can also sense the human heart."

"Strangely, although it enjoys eating the most poisonous things in the world, it yearns for purity the most. It will not drink anything but mountain spring water, and it will not stay in a place that is not built with Bodhi leaves and tricolor grass."

"Humans all have greedy hearts, but you are as pure as a spirit of heaven and earth, even the fire monkey wants to get close to you."

At this point, he shook his head and said:

"This beast feeds on poisons, and it has another wonderful feature: it can help martial artists cleanse themselves of the poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance, and free them from the suffering of inner demons."

"Unfortunately, one must be free from greed, anger, and ignorance to attract the fire monkey; and such a person is free from inner demons, so naturally he does not need the fire monkey."

"Unfortunately, this monkey is still of great use to me. I have boils all over my body and I need it to suppress them, so I cannot give it to you."

Hearing what the Mud Bodhisattva said, the girl shook her head, put the fire monkey back into the Mud Bodhisattva's basket, and said, "This belongs to the senior, and the junior should not covet it. However, the fire monkey is a rare species of heaven and earth, so it is best not to put it in front of people, otherwise there will surely be disaster."

The Mud Bodhisattva nodded, then suddenly said, "You don't want it at all? This is a rare species of heaven and earth, capable of absorbing all the world's deadly poisons."

The girl shook her head and said, "I don't need it."

"What's your name?" asked the Mud Bodhisattva.

The girl smiled and said, "This junior is Mingyue."

………………

"bright?"

Where the young girl Mingyue could not see, countless illusory characters flashed in the eyes of the Mud Bodhisattva, who said, "So it is the Ming family, the Ming family that guards the Martial Saint's Divine Weapon."

Mingyue asked in surprise, "Senior knows my family?"

The clay bodhisattva chuckled:

"There are very few things in this world that I don't know. Back in the day, I was known as a god..."

"Forget it, that's all in the past. All I want now is peace. Let bygones be bygones."

"Young lady, if you are willing to take me in, I will help you find a good marriage. Your future husband is already on his way to Wushuang City."

Mingyue smiled and said:

"You're talking nonsense again, senior!"

"Since you have nowhere to go, why not stay at the almshouse? At least it will be a place to stay."

The clay bodhisattva nodded, stood up, and said, "In that case, I will trouble you. Please lead the way!"

The girl nodded, stood up, and beckoned the little beggars to walk together. The little beggar who had spoken earlier looked displeased, snorted coldly at the clay Buddha, and turned to lead the other children away arrogantly.

"Strange, very strange! I have a feeling that this young girl's husband is connected to the person I'm looking for." Mud Bodhisattva muttered to himself as he followed behind the group.

Soon, the group turned the corner and disappeared into the bustling main street...

Chapter 574 Unsealing of Memories, Yuanxin Seal

Just after Mud Bodhisattva and Mingyue left, in the restaurant across the street, Shi Wuzun watched them until they were out of sight before whispering in surprise, "Divine Physician Mud Bodhisattva? How did he get involved with the Ming family?"

After a moment of fruitless contemplation, Shi Wuzun turned and left without lingering.

………………

In the study of the city lord's mansion, Dugu Ming came straight here as soon as he returned to the mansion. After pushing open the door, the desk was already full of documents, all of which were matters that required his personal attention.

"No wonder Mr. Su said that this is the hardest and most tiring job in the world."

Shaking his head and chuckling, Dugu Ming sat down behind the desk and began to look through the documents.

The Xuanyuan Sword, which was originally tucked into his waist, was casually placed on the table. After he immersed himself in his paperwork, the Xuanyuan Sword trembled slightly, and streams of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, purified by the Xuanyuan Sword, surged into Dugu Ming's body.

The boy's internal energy circulated faster and faster, constantly refining the endless stream of primordial energy. Soon, the ethereal primordial energy of heaven and earth became tangible, transforming into a wisp of mist around him.

Dugu Ming's true energy was improving at an incredible speed, approaching the two-hundred-year mark.

At the very moment the Xuanyuan Sword stirred, in the Scripture Pavilion of the East Garden of the City Lord's Mansion, the Sword Saint, who had been cultivating with his eyes closed, opened them and looked at the supreme and noble sword energy that encompassed all things and dispelled all evil.

"The Xuanyuan Sword of the Human Emperor! The sword of humanity, the sword of the emperor!"

After a long while, the Sword Saint closed his eyes and continued his cultivation.

………………

The World Society is located in the No. 1 Building in the World.

Su Yuchen awoke from his seclusion and looked at the motionless Undying Phoenix Egg within the Taiji diagram formed by the innate Yin-Yang divine light. Confirming that its condition had stabilized and that the consciousness hidden deep within the Phoenix Blood was gradually reviving, he withdrew the divine light.

With his left hand, Su Yuchen played with the nine parts of Indra's memories, probing them one by one with his divine sense.

"This is truly a treasure trove of martial arts knowledge. I wonder how many schools this guy has studied under since the Qin Dynasty..."

"I've got it! Sacred Heart Technique, Dry Ice Palm, Righteous Qi Melody, Snow Blood Claw, Snow-Severing Heaven Opening Technique, Seven Deadly Realms, Five Thunder Transformation Technique, Iron Refining Hand, Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin..."

“This Nahai Sacred Heart Mantra is similar to the path I’ve followed, but unfortunately, it’s not comprehensive enough…”

"The Seven Deadly Realms are fine for dealing with people weaker than oneself, but if the opponent is stronger, the shattered physical body will be directly annihilated, which is tantamount to courting death."

"Huh? Five Thunder Transformation Technique..."

"A shocking calamity, a calamity of the heart of heaven..."

Upon seeing this, Su Yuchen's primordial spirit flashed like lightning, and various thoughts rushed through his mind like thunder. The true energy in his body moved from the limitless, transforming into streams of thunderous true energy. The true energy circulated once with the Five Thunder Transformation Hand, and then went to different meridians.

Before long, as Su Yuchen breathed through his mouth and nose, the essence of five-colored lightning surged forth, eventually transforming into five elements of lightning. Part of it entered his internal organs, while the rest rushed into the five elements of true seed within his primordial spirit.

You have received humanitarian blessings.

[You have combined the Five Thunder Transformation Technique, the Longevity Mantra, the Five Elements Divine Light, and the power of Heavenly Thunder, and you have mastered the Acquired Five Elements Divine Thunder.]

[Your internal organs have been strengthened by the power of thunder and lightning, and your physical body has improved.]

With thunder roaring within his body, the Five Elements Divine Light unfolded behind Su Yuchen, and streaks of thunderous essence flashed and exploded. As the five-colored thunder resounded throughout his body, Su Yuchen's body underwent a strange change. A trace of powerful aura flashed by, and with a wave of his hand, a void rift appeared in the World's Number One Tower.

The Qilin at the door instantly bristled and sprang to its feet, turning around and already outside the door, peeking over cautiously.

Su Yuchen casually pinched the crack with his right hand, and with a loud "bang," a huge explosion rolled out from the World's Number One Building, causing the sea of ​​clouds on the top of Tianshan Mountain to retreat.

Looking at the top of Tianshan Mountain, where the waves of clouds receded like a tsunami, all the disciples of the World Alliance turned their gazes in this direction.

………………

Inside the No. 1 Building Under Heaven, Su Yuchen clenched his right hand, and five bolts of lightning carrying the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth danced in his palm, the terrifying aura causing the entire No. 1 Building Under Heaven to tremble incessantly.

With a wave of his hand, Su Yuchen dispersed the lightning and closed his eyes to continue his cultivation.

Seeing this, the Qilin at the door shook its head, did not step in, turned around with its rear facing the door and its head facing the steps, and lay down again.

………………

[Your observation of the Four Tribulations of the Sacred Heart has triggered the opening of your sealed memories.]

Inside the No. 1 Building in the World.

As the narration began, a memory from the Tang Dynasty world, sealed deep within Su Yuchen's mind, revived. In Su Yuchen's mind, the giant hand forming a hand seal, towering over the universe, partially overlapped with the true energy circulation routes of the Shocking Tribulation and the Heavenly Heart Tribulation.

The hand seals that were originally unclear became clear under the stimulation of Su Yuchen's primordial spirit, revealing some kind of Dao trace. Su Yuchen's hands, which were sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, moved spontaneously, and as the palm seals changed, a certain finger seal gradually formed.

………………

I don’t know how much time has passed.

At a certain moment, as Su Yuchen's hand gestures stabilized, a heartbeat sounded from the World's Number One Building.

At the entrance, the bored Qilin's heart began to pound, and with a loud 'thud,' the sound reverberated throughout the Qilin's primordial spirit.

With a whoosh, a blurry figure flashed by, and the Qilin transformed into a stream of light, disappearing from the entrance. After an unknown amount of time, a head emerged from behind the clouds in the distance, peering curiously at the Number One Pavilion Under Heaven.

Just as Qilin hesitated, the heartbeat of 'lub-dub,' 'lub-dub,' 'lub-dub' grew louder and louder, and came from the number one building under heaven.

Involuntarily, regardless of distance or status, everyone at the headquarters of the World Society felt their hearts begin to beat in unison with each heartbeat.

As each heartbeat grew stronger, many people experienced a series of phantom images before their eyes, as if they had returned to the past, to that most helpless, regrettable, and unforgettable moment of their past.

With each heartbeat, the Qilin's primordial spirit inexplicably vibrated, and scenes that seemed to belong to the past, not the present, surfaced from the depths of its bloodline.

Before the Qilin could see clearly, a phoenix cry resounded from the depths of the soul within the First Pavilion Under Heaven. It was the voice of the immortal phoenix, and at that moment, the phoenix's soul was revived from the depths of its bloodline.

As the last heartbeat fell, a 'thump' sounded, like the tolling of an empty bell. Everyone's vision went black, their thoughts went blank, as if they had forgotten something, yet also as if they hadn't forgotten anything at all.

You have received humanitarian blessings.

[By combining the hand seals passed down by True Lord Qingyuan Miaodao, the Heavenly Heart Tribulation and the Shocking Eye Tribulation mental techniques, and the Great Dao Azure Lotus Chapter, you have cultivated the Primordial Spirit Wonderful Method Primordial Heart Seal]

[The subtle thoughts, unpredictable desires, and mysterious souls are all contained within this seal.]

Your primordial spirit has been nourished, your yang spirit has grown, and you have gained insight into the nine transformations of the yang spirit.

[You have mastered the primordial spirit's divine power - the Soul-Swallowing Bell. With a single toll, all spirits will be seized.]

Su Yuchen opened his eyes, and his divine light emanated from his body. Wherever his gaze fell, it seemed as if space itself was slowed down.

With a thought, a void bell formed from true energy and divine light of the primordial spirit floated in his palm, spinning rapidly. As long as he had a thought, the bell's sound would resound throughout the summit of Tianshan Mountain.

Chapter 575 Su Yuchen Leaves Tianshan, Various Parties Enter Wushuang City

After a long time.

The Qilin poked its head in from outside the door. Upon seeing Su Yuchen, it seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and happily trotted back to lie down by the door.

Su Yuchen smiled slightly, casually dispelled the Qi Bell, and looked at the Undying Phoenix Egg that was shimmering with five-colored light.

"Unexpectedly, by sheer chance, I mastered the primordial spirit technique, which further stimulated my phoenix bloodline and awakened the soul of the immortal phoenix."

"But this seems to be... the Primordial Daoist lineage?"

Shaking his head, Su Yuchen focused his mind, and the azure sword light cut away all distracting thoughts. He then looked up into the depths of the sea of ​​clouds.

After a long while, Su Yuchen looked at the memory in his hand and pondered to himself:

Indra's martial arts have an inexplicable connection with the Primordial Daoist lineage, but now that he has died at my hands, this cause and effect is unavoidable, and there is no point in thinking about it further.

However, this allowed him to learn the location of the divine dragon, which enabled him to begin cultivating his second primordial spirit and leave himself a trump card for survival.

With a flick of his wrist, Su Yuchen put away the memory device. He then used his divine sense to send a message, and soon, Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai arrived together and appeared downstairs.

As Su Yuchen's gaze swept over him, Duan Shuai said, "Nie Feng and Lang'er have already gone to Wushuang City to discuss the merger of the two factions. Jingyun is training troops at the foot of the mountain, and Qin Shuang is integrating various martial arts masters at the front mountain. They are about to train a large army to cooperate with Wushuang City to sweep across the world."

Su Yuchen nodded and said:

"The four spirits of heaven and earth have suffered a calamity. I have already learned the whereabouts of the divine dragon and I must make a trip to bring it back."

"From today onwards, the two of you and Qilin will guard the No. 1 Restaurant under Heaven and wait for my return."

Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai nodded in agreement, but Qilin let out a low growl, its voice full of complaints.

Su Yuchen patted the huge dragon head to reassure it for a moment, then his figure flickered and disappeared.

As Su Yuchen left, the Qilin roared, turned its head away, ignored the others, and went to sleep. It sensed that the memories that had inexplicably surfaced earlier were very important to it, but it had no intention of paying attention to the others.

Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai exchanged a glance, then immediately gave Wen Chou Chou a few instructions. The two of them then entered the World's Number One Pavilion and went to the third floor to guard the egg that was shimmering with five-colored light.

"This is……"
