"I see that your boxing skills are superficial and your footwork is ordinary, but you have mastered every kind of martial arts to perfection."
"How could such a martial arts genius enter the imperial court? It's such a pity!"
Butcher Zhang walked into the classroom, grabbed the water jar, gulped down some cold water, shook his head and smacked his lips.
"The Demon Suppression Division is inferior to the martial arts sects?"
Shen Yi was very interested in these "common sense".
"That's not the case. The Demon Suppression Division gathers all the martial arts from the Daqian Dynasty. In terms of foundation and background, it is the best choice."
Butcher Zhang put down the water jar and continued, "There are many rules, and you have to climb up from the bottom. If a genius like you enters the Vajra Sect, you will at least be treated as a disciple taught by an elder. You will have priority in choosing various precious medicines and magical weapons."
He sighed: "It's not possible now."
Shen Yi looked up in confusion: "Why?"
"Think about it, if you have average talent, I wouldn't mind paving the way for you and covering up your identity, but with your talent like this, if you say that the Demon Suppression Division doesn't want you... I'd never believe it. No sect in the entire Qingzhou would accept your invitation."
Butcher Zhang took out several pages of yellow paper that he had prepared long ago from his arms.
Obviously, his mind was not as careless as it seemed. Just from the Eight Steps of the Spirit Snake used by Shen Yi yesterday, he was able to deduce the other party's situation.
"I entered the Vajra Sect when I was six years old, and my master called me a genius. But now I am forty-eight years old, I have killed countless monsters, and consumed countless beast ingots and medicines, but I have only opened my seven orifices so far."
"There are two reasons. The first is that the Vajra Sect is different from other sects. It focuses on tempering itself with the energy of heaven and earth. Most of the energy absorbed is consumed in the body, so progress is several times slower than that of others."
Butcher Zhang bared his teeth and stretched out his arm: "You have seen the effect. If I hadn't wanted to show you just now, I would have used my internal energy. Although I can't do anything to you, it is more than enough to protect myself."
"But I can't give you the Diamond Body. Look here."
He stuffed the yellow paper into Shen Yi's hand: "This is a little thing I figured out by myself, which is why I am barely in the late stage of the beginner realm."
Shen Yi spread out the paper.
Even if you don't understand it, you still have to flip through it twice.
"The martial arts sects also have their disadvantages. Once you have a bad temper and offend someone, you basically have no chance of getting ahead."
Zhang the Butcher spoke of the past with a calm expression, "If you didn't give me the martial arts of the Jade Liquid Realm, I would figure it out on my own. Unfortunately, after more than ten years, I was only able to barely cross that threshold... It's just a guess, don't take it seriously. Anyway, if you can practice it to perfection, it will at least be as good as the Diamond Body."
"The second half is about the Jade Liquid Realm. I'll tell you in detail once I figure it out."
Shen Yi flipped through the pages slowly, and the panel appeared before his eyes.
[Jade Liquid. Golden Sun Eight Treasures Mysterious Body Volume: (Not yet introduced)]
"…"
After seeing the specific words clearly, Shen Yi forced himself to calm down. Even so, his breathing was disordered for a moment.
According to Zhang the Butcher, this martial art is only at the initial level, and anything beyond that is just conjecture.
But now after verification on the panel, it has been proved that the other party's idea is correct. What is lacking is only time. Once the next volume is completed, this will be the real Jade Liquid Realm martial arts.
In comparison, although the Blood Evil Sword Technique is extremely cruel, its growth potential is obviously insufficient and it is also restricted by specific conditions. The value of the two is almost incomparable.
Shen Yi fell silent, but Zhang the Butcher became a little nervous and scratched his head:
"Although I just imagined it, the basic part is based on the Diamond Body. Hehe, there is a high probability that it will not be wrong... Anyway, I'm ahead of you in practice. If there is any problem, it won't be too late for you to make a decision."
"Senior has great talent."
Shen Yi carefully put the yellow paper away, with a look of emotion on his face.
It would take him a full fifty years just to deduce an initial level of swordsmanship on the panel.
The other party was able to complete such an operation in more than ten years without any external help. This is a true genius.
"I told you not to call me senior. Do you think I'm joking? Exchanging martial arts is just a side job." Butcher Zhang smacked his lips and walked out the door, rolling his eyes and saying, "I walked all the way from Qingzhou and my travel expenses are all gone. From now on, I'll have to call you my boss to make a living...Okay, get busy. When you're done copying the sword techniques, give them to me."
Shen Yi watched the other person walk away and shook his head in confusion.
Although Baiyun County is not big, there are many people willing to support a beginner martial artist. Why did the other party target me? Forget it.
He closed the newly installed door and cast his eyes on the panel.
[Remaining demon lifespan: 226 years]
Originally, these life points were planned to be kept and used after Lin Baiwei copied them down.
But after what happened yesterday, Shen Yi suddenly felt a little urgent to master a way to save his life.
Thinking of this, he burst out laughing.
When he originally had only one year left to live, he would rush forward without hesitation when faced with the black-skinned dog demon.
How come now that he has forty-six years of life, he is distracted by the two-headed snake woman?
It is human instinct to cherish life, even if it is found.
Shen Yi focused his mind and poured the demon's lifespan into this newly acquired martial art.
…
[In the first year, you learned the ability to temper your body with the energy of heaven and earth. It is different from the original Wind and Thunder Scroll. It no longer assimilates the body into a container, but refines the body with energy and forges the flesh and blood into a magic weapon.]
[In the second year, because your twelve orifices are complete and your breath is long and continuous, this kind of water grinding skill will not be difficult for you. You only need to go through years of tempering to naturally transform yourself.]
[In the seventh year, Jade Liquid. Golden Sun Eight Treasures Mystery was introduced]
[Fifteenth year, you break through to minor success]
[In the twenty-ninth year, the Jade Liquid. Golden Sun Eight Treasures Mysterious Body Volume was completed]
[In the 42nd year, you reach perfection, and your physical body enters a new realm]
[Demon's remaining lifespan: 184 years]
…
I don't know if it's because too much wasted time in deducing new martial arts.
Shen Yi was actually a little uncomfortable when he saw the natural scene in the information on the panel.
Is this the end?
After so many deductions, Shen Yi also found a problem.
As long as it is just a slow practice that does not involve aptitude, the amount of lifespan consumed will be very little, but if it comes to understanding... there is almost no upper limit to the consumption.
Zhang the butcher tried out his guess first, but he didn't know if it was as powerful as the other party thought.
He looked at the sword on the table, rolled up his sleeves, drew the sword and lightly scratched his arm.
No response.
Shen Yi increased his strength gradually, watching the blade bounce off again and again.
Until the evil spirit attached to the blade again, he gathered all the energy of his body and slashed down with a bloody sword technique.
A layer of mysterious light instantly appeared on the fair and strong forearm, and the red mist dissipated.
There was a crisp sound.
Shen Yi looked at the broken sword with a surprised expression.
He killed so many demons but none of them broke, but in the end, he broke on himself.
Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?
Is this the foundation of the martial arts sect?
He bent down and picked up the half-broken blade. The saber was not cheap, but he could rely on the tiger monster yesterday and go to the workshop to exchange it for another one.
