Duan Zhengchun transmigrates to Yin Zhiping

In the underground chamber.

Qiu Chuji sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, circulating his innate true energy, trying to restore his power to its original state as quickly as possible.

After all, there might be another major battle a month from now, which would determine the life or death of the Quanzhen Sect.

I hope Zhiping won't let me down and can quickly regain his mastery of our sect's martial arts.

With the foundation laid beforehand, even if I forget everything completely, I believe I'll be able to fully grasp it all within a month.

Thinking this to himself, Qiu Chuji's lips once again revealed a smile of relief. But then he felt a tightness in his chest. He had almost gone into a state of demonic possession because he had been distracted for a moment. So he quickly banished the distracting thoughts from his mind and focused on circulating his internal energy to regulate his breathing.

Meanwhile, Duan Zhengchun, who was sitting on a futon not far away, had finished his practice and stood up, twisting his body and stretching.

Seeing that Qiu Chuji was practicing his skills, he did not disturb him. Instead, he walked around the secret room with his hands behind his back, his every move belying his age.

After wandering around for a while, Duan Zhengchun felt a little bored, so he tiptoed up to Qiu Chuji, bent down and peered at the white-haired Qiu Chuji.

Given Qiu Chuji's age, he was indeed barely old enough to be his master, so he didn't care much about the title. However, he didn't know anything about this master who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and didn't know what kind of person he was.

Not only was Qiu Chuji unfamiliar to him, but he was also unfamiliar with everyone in the entire Quanzhen Sect. Fortunately, the old Taoist priest in front of him was quite nice to him.

While Qiu Chuji was practicing his internal energy cultivation, he suddenly noticed a shadow in front of him. After stopping his practice, he slowly opened his eyes and saw a face almost touching his nose. He was startled and immediately stopped practicing and moved back, only to find that it was his beloved disciple.

"Cough cough...What are you doing?!"

Because he finished his practice too quickly, his meridians became somewhat disordered. Qiu Chuji coughed twice, clutching his chest, and glared at Duan Zhengchun with dissatisfaction.

"I'm sorry, Master, did I scare you?"

Duan Zhengchun quickly stood up straight and smiled sheepishly.

"What nonsense are you spouting?! Do you think I'm that cowardly?! I'm angry!"

"I just taught you internal energy cultivation techniques and swordsmanship, why aren't you practicing properly?!"

Qiu Chuji blushed and immediately put on a stern face.

He wasn't actually that timid, but he never expected his beloved disciple to stand secretly in front of him without making a sound!

"I've already learned it."

Duan Zhengchun looked at Qiu Chuji with a sincere expression and casually replied.

"You've already learned it?! This..."

"It's only been an hour, and you've already learned it?!"

Qiu Chuji was stunned for a moment, looking Duan Zhengchun up and down with surprise on his face.

"Yeah, is it that hard? It's just a basic internal energy cultivation method and a beginner's sword technique, isn't it?"

"Does this mean we have to train for another ten or eight years?"

Duan Zhengchun shrugged, looking puzzled, his eyes clear like a child's.

His current demeanor makes him look exactly like a boastful, naive young man.

Qiu Chuji frowned, immediately reached out and grabbed Duan Zhengchun's wrist, placing his index and middle fingers directly on the veins. Then, he stared at the utterly sincere Duan Zhengchun, speechless.

Judging from the sequence of events, my beloved disciple has indeed mastered the Jade Profound Return to True Heart Technique, and his internal energy is abundant and continuous!

Although this is a basic internal energy cultivation method, with long-term practice, even an ordinary person can greatly increase their power and rise to the ranks of martial arts masters.

But he never expected that his beloved disciple's learning speed would be so astonishing!

What he didn't know was that Duan Zhengchun, who had already studied the unique internal energy cultivation method of the Dali Duan family, now had the added blessing of innate true energy in his body. He could easily master this basic internal energy cultivation method and didn't need to spend any effort studying it.

"Practice another set of the Quanzhen Sword Technique that I just taught you!"

Qiu Chuji suppressed his excitement, his face showing eagerness.

Duan Zhengchun nodded, walked to the side, picked up the wooden sword, and immediately began demonstrating it in the center of the secret room.

Wherever the sword strikes landed, the sound of air being torn apart rose and fell. Every move was incredibly swift, leaving Qiu Chuji dazzled and astonished.

In fact, this Quanzhen sword technique doesn't seem particularly profound. It is indeed an introductory sword technique of the Quanzhen Sect, which everyone in the sect can practice.

However, if a master cultivates it, its power is naturally incomparable to that of ordinary people! Qiu Chuji devoted his life to cultivation, and his mastery of swordsmanship had long been renowned throughout the martial arts world.

But at this moment he was somewhat dazed, because his beloved disciple's handling and execution of some moves were even a step ahead of his own! He used them more freely!

He could even vaguely see sword energy in those sword moves!

This is almost impossible! Even before my beloved student suffered from amnesia and delirium, he had never managed to do it!

He also practiced diligently for ten years before he was able to develop sword energy!

"A prodigy! A genius!"

"In just one hour, you have not only mastered the Jade Profound Return to Truth technique, but you have also mastered the thirty-six moves of the Quanzhen Swordplay to such a high degree, and even revealed sword energy within the sword moves!"

"How did you do that?!"

Qiu Chuji stood up excitedly, his face filled with disbelief.

Duan Zhengchun sheathed his sword and stood there, looking at Qiu Chuji with a puzzled expression. He smiled and said, "It's very simple. You can learn it in no time."

Qiu Chuji: "..."

Seeing Duan Zhengchun's confident expression, Qiu Chuji couldn't help but laugh and cry, because it had taken him a full ten years to reach the same level as his beloved disciple!

"It seems that this trip to the northern desert was quite an adventure for you! Not only did you survive a great calamity, but you also greatly increased your power!"

"Perhaps it was thanks to that bizarre nightmare, coupled with my use of innate true energy to reshape your dantian and eight extraordinary meridians, that your potential was fully unleashed, allowing you to progress so rapidly!"

"It can only be said that you were not destined to die! You turned misfortune into blessing! Moreover, you are destined to become the next generation of outstanding talents in my Quanzhen Sect after my master, leading the Quanzhen Sect to flourish and return to the top of the martial arts world!"

Qiu Chuji looked at Duan Zhengchun with a face full of satisfaction, his excitement overflowing.

Duan Zhengchun simply smiled and didn't seem particularly excited, because in the past he wasn't someone who pursued becoming the best martial artist in the world; he only cared about being able to save his own life.

In fact, when he was born, the high monks of Tianlong Temple said that he was a martial arts prodigy who was one in a hundred years. However, he was used to being free and unrestrained and did not want to be bound by others, so he never put his mind on martial arts training. He preferred to travel the world and live a carefree and romantic life.

...

"Now I will teach you the superior sword technique I teach: One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones!"

"This sword technique consists of 2918 sword moves. Each sword is divided into three. When thrusting out, there is only one move, but after being fully executed, the sword moves can be divided into three!"

"Alright!"

After saying that, Qiu Chuji took the wooden sword from Duan Zhengchun and practiced it again in the secret room.

The sword moves like the wind and lightning; a wooden sword is wielded like a dragon soaring through the clouds, its movements ever-changing!

...

"Next up is the palm technique!"

"This palm technique is called the Seven Forms of the Great Big Dipper! It is a Taoist Xuanmen palm technique created by your grandmaster. It is the number one defensive technique in the world. With just a trace of true energy, it can neutralize the opponent's attacks one by one!"

"The martial art principle of using four ounces to deflect a thousand pounds is fully embodied in this set of palm techniques. Watch carefully!"

...

Perhaps on a whim, or perhaps out of sheer excitement, Qiu Chuji immediately began to demonstrate all the martial arts techniques of the Quanzhen Sect to Duan Zhengchun.

Besides the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones Sword Technique and the Seven Styles of the Big Dipper Palm Technique, there are also the Frost-Treading and Ice-Breaking Palm Technique and the Golden Goose Lightness Skill.

As a result, Duan Zhengchun learned every martial arts technique at a glance and could apply it to other situations, which made Qiu Chuji nod in praise frequently.

Duan Zhengchun, who had never been particularly interested in martial arts, suddenly developed a strong interest in practicing martial arts.

Perhaps it was because he inherited some of Yin Zhiping's last thoughts before his death, or perhaps it was because Qiu Chuji was indeed a good old man to him, so Qiu Chuji was willing to teach, and he was willing to learn.

Not only did he learn what Yin Zhiping already knew, but he also reached a higher level of skill. Qiu Chuji was overjoyed and finally stopped worrying about the martial arts competition in the sect three months later.

For three consecutive days, the master and disciple stayed in the underground secret chamber. Apart from eating and sleeping, they spent the rest of their time practicing martial arts. As Qiu Chuji's skills slowly recovered, Duan Zhengchun also learned most of the Quanzhen Sect's martial arts.

Three days later, Qiu Chuji finally led Duan Zhengchun out of the secret room and out of the rear hall of Chongyang Palace.

However, soon after hearing the news, people from all walks of life in the church rushed over.

They were all waiting for an explanation. After all, the "Yin Zhiping" they knew had caused a lot of trouble since returning to Zhongnan Mountain, and there had to be some kind of explanation...
