Chapter 177: Sacred Heart Technique! Five Thunders Transformed into Ultimate Hands! Five Elements Bloodline Sees the Dawn!
After descending the mountain and taking a short rest, everyone rode back to Chang'an on horseback.
Ni Kun sat on the horse with his hands in his sleeves, not holding the reins, letting the horse run along with the team, while he concentrated on counting Xu Fu's skills.
During his long life of more than one thousand years, Xu Fu had joined many martial arts schools in different identities and learned countless martial arts.
Most of these martial arts are not considered high-end.
After all, Xu Fu was just an alchemist who didn't know martial arts at the beginning.
With his initial vision, he couldn't tell the difference between high and low levels of martial arts.
He practiced Iron Sand Palm and learned Iron Shirt. In short, he would put every dish on the plate.
But as he learned more and more martial arts and accumulated more and more martial arts knowledge, his ability to identify gradually improved .
Start to consciously pursue various better exercises.
At that stage, he practiced Tai Chi, Iron Refining Hands, and even the Sword Sect's Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin and other magical skills.
After he mastered the art of martial arts, he integrated all he had learned throughout his life and created the miraculous skill of "Sacred Heart Technique".
Among Xu Fu's vast array of martial arts, the most valuable are undoubtedly his self-created "Sacred Heart Technique" and the "Five Thunders Ultimate Hand" that Xu Fu always wanted to remember but was unable to cultivate in his lifetime.
The magical skill of Sacred Heart Art is all-encompassing.
There are light skills, internal skills, mental illusions, as well as boxing, palm techniques, finger techniques, claw techniques, leg techniques, and the " magical powers .
What’s even more valuable is that the Sacred Heart Sutra can lead to immortality.
A minor level of Sacred Heart Technique can greatly increase one's lifespan.
If one practices to the highest level, one can achieve immortality, eternal youth, and an indestructible body.
Moreover, the power of the Sacred Heart Sutra can bring the dead back to life - of course, the dead must have died not long ago and their bodies are intact.
This technique has completely gone beyond the scope of martial arts and can be regarded as a good method for cultivating immortals.
But as for longevity, Ni Kun already has a channel.
Whether he continued to practice the martial arts of the immortals or took the immortality elixir directly, he didn't need to spend too much time and energy on the Sacred Heart Sutra - the main reason was that he couldn't practice internal energy until now. No matter the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra, the Demonic Sect's exercises, or even the Longevity Sutra, they could not enable him to cultivate internal strength.
After all, the Sacred Heart Technique is a method of practicing internal Qi from the very beginning.
Even if Ni Kun learned it directly through initiation, the derived true energy would probably be divided up by the Five Spirit Bloodline, the Golden Finger and the Reincarnation Watch.
Therefore, the fundamental skills of the Sacred Heart Sutra were of little significance to him.
However, his supernatural powers such as lightness skills, illusion, the four unique skills of the Sacred Heart, the four calamities of the Sacred Heart, the seven ultimate realms of existence, etc. can be learned directly through initiation, so that you can have more unique skills at hand.
But the fundamental skills of the Sacred Heart Sutra are of little significance to Ni Kun, but of great significance to others.
For example, Zhu Yuyan, Kankan, Shi Feixuan and others, even if they have their own fundamental skills, their fundamental skills, the Heavenly Demon Secret and Cihang Sword Classic, have no examples of breaking the void in the original timeline, whether in the past or in the future.
Among all the magic techniques, the most reliable one to break the void is still the "Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique".
If the "Secret of the Heavenly Demon" still has a slight possibility of giving a glimpse into the way of heaven, the " Cihang Sword Canon" has absolutely no future.
In this case, Ni Kun could just pass on the Sacred Heart Secret to them.
The Sacred Heart Sutra was created by Xu Fu by integrating all his life's learning. It has the nature of "embracing all rivers and seas" and is compatible with almost all martial arts - there is a "Sacred Heart Mantra of embracing the sea" in the Sacred Heart Sutra, which can assimilate the true qi of other martial arts into the power of the Sacred Heart Sutra while maintaining the characteristics of the original martial arts' true qi.
Practicing the Sacred Heart Sutra will not cause their respective fundamental skills to lose their characteristics, but will only push their respective skills to a higher level.
Anyway, after practicing the Sacred Heart Sutra, even if one can break through the void, it still depends purely on chance. Moreover, with the current situation in the reincarnation world, no matter how high one's cultivation level is, it is probably difficult to break through the void, but at least there will be no problem with immortality.
Your strength can also become stronger, and you will have more power to protect yourself when facing the "catastrophe" that may come at any time.
The Sacred Heart Technique is peaceful and has a strong universality. The requirements for qualifications...
Anyway, all you need is qualifications of Xu Fu's level, which is more than enough.
As for Xu Fu's qualifications...
In Ni Kun's opinion, if Zhu Yuyan, Kankan, and Shi Feixuan had the opportunity like Xu Fu, they would be able to master countless skills and practice for more than a thousand years. They should be able to practice to immortality and even break through the void.
The "Sacred Heart Sutra" is compatible with almost all martial arts, but there is one martial art that even the Sacred Heart Sutra is incompatible with.
Forcing yourself to practice may even destroy your own cultivation.
This skill is exactly the "Five Thunders Transformation Hand".
The magical skill of Five Thunders Transformed into Ultimate Hand was created by a master named "Raging Wind and Thunder" during Xu Fu's cultivation career.
Xu Fu always thought that Nu Fenglei had kept his secrets from him and had not passed on his true skills to him, so he froze Nu Fenglei in ice for a thousand years.
However, he didn't know that the secret of martial arts passed down to him by Nu Fenglei was true.
It was just because he saw through Xu Fu's true face that he concealed a little secret.
That is, practicing the Five Thunders Transformation Hand requires a very harsh prerequisite.
The concept of the Five Thunders Transformation Hand is that the "Five Elements" are the basis of material existence, and the Five Thunders Transformation Hand relies on destroying the "Five Elements" to fundamentally collapse and dissolve the basis of material existence.
If you want to "counter the five elements", you must first have a five-element constitution and master the power of the five elements to a certain extent.
Xu Fu was obviously not satisfied with this.
It was by chance that Nu Fenglei possessed the five elements physique, mastered the power of the five elements, and created the Five Thunders Transformation Hand, an "anti-five elements, antimatter" skill.
And Ni Kun...
Coincidentally, he already possesses the five elements spiritual veins. Even if the five elements have not yet been unified and sublimated into a true "five elements bloodline", he still possesses the five elements in his body and has mastered the power of the five elements to a certain extent, thus possessing the prerequisites for practicing the "Five Thunders Transformation Hand".
What's more coincidental is that he also mastered the Thunder Prison Sword, and had a good understanding and solid foundation in the power of thunder.
Therefore, this "Five Thunders Transformed into the Ultimate Hand" was tailor-made for him.
A thought came to mind.
The balance in Ni Kun's account shrank slightly.
At the same time, a sense of enlightenment surged into his mind, and the five elements of spiritual veins began to stir.
He took out a one-foot-long handleless sword from his mustard seed ring.
The sword was grey and inconspicuous. It was a low-end flying sword of the miscellaneous soldier level that was seized from Ciyu Temple.
Ni Kun placed the sword horizontally in his palm, and the five-colored light of red, white, green, black and yellow circulated from the fingertips of his five fingers, merging into a chaotic lightning, which landed on the flying sword and moved along the sword body.
Wherever the lightning passed, the sword quickly collapsed.
In the blink of an eye, the entire flying sword shattered into slag and then evaporated into thin air, without even a piece of iron filings left.
Only a wisp of pure golden energy was left, which was absorbed into Ni Kun's body and merged into the gold spiritual vein.
A smile appeared on Ni Kun's lips.
He is worthy of being called the master of Five Thunders.
Even if this flying sword is of the low-level weapon level among sword immortals, it is still of two-star quality, enough to cut off any one-star grade ordinary divine weapon.
Weapons such as the Heavenly Sword, the Dragon Slaying Sabre, the Heavenly Demon Double Slash and so on are no match for this flying sword and will break after just a few hits.
However, such a tough and sharp weapon was reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye under the "Five Thunders Transformation Hand" that Ni Kun had mastered.
"It is indeed the magical skill that Xu Fu has been thinking about for a thousand years. The Five Thunders Transformation Hand is indeed worthy of its reputation!"
Ni Kun was amazed and at the same time inexplicably surprised.
Because the Five Thunders Hand is a fusion of the power of the five elements, which generates the five elements of thunder and destroys the material foundation.
After receiving the initiation and learning the Five Thunders Transformation Hand, which directly enabled him to achieve minor success, Ni Kun gained a greater understanding of how to control the power of the five elements.
Taking the Five Thunders Transformation Hand as a reference, he actually saw a clear direction on how to merge the five elements' spiritual veins into one and sublimate them into the "Five Elements Bloodline".
This was undoubtedly a more surprising gain for him than learning the Five Thunders Hand, or even obtaining the Sacred Heart Sutra and the Elixir of Immortality.
Tsunade rode beside him on horseback, and seeing that he was smiling and in high spirits, looking extremely happy, she couldn't help but approach him and asked:
"What are you thinking about so happily? Share it with me, and make me happy too!"
Ni Kun smiled: "I'm thinking about what to eat tonight."
"That's it?" Tsunade said suspiciously, "I have lived through hard times for several years, so even today, I am still happy when I eat delicious food. But you shouldn't be like this, right?"
Ni Kun chuckled and looked at Tsunade meaningfully:
"But what I want is to eat you tonight..."
As he spoke, he glanced at her chest and gave her a "you know" look.
Tsunade's face suddenly turned red, and she snorted and rode away.
…
Return to Chang'an City.
Zhao Min thanked Ni Kun again. Li Xiuning also suppressed her inner throbbing and tried her best to be dignified and thanked Ni Kun again solemnly.
The two parties then parted ways.
Zhao Min first sent Li Xiuning back to the guesthouse to recuperate, and then hurried into the palace to apologize to the Qin Emperor and report the whole story of the Xu Fu incident.
Ni Kunze, Zhu Yuyan and others returned to their residence to continue digesting their harvest.
I have learned the Five Thunders Transformation Hand directly through initiation, but I still need to continue to study and research it, and refer to it with the Five Elements Diagram of the Longevity Sutra, in order to truly find the way to integrate the five elements of spiritual veins.
Ni Kun also exchanged the secret book of Sacred Heart Technique and gave it to Zhu Yuyan and others to study.
Although Xiaoqing has her own immortality skills as a demon cultivator, she does not need to practice the Sacred Heart Technique. Of course, she can also study the various skills and magical powers of the Sacred Heart Technique to enrich her methods and improve her strength.
Even Tsunade can practice the techniques and supernatural powers of the Sacred Heart Sutra.
Although the "chakra" of the ninja system originates from the sacred tree, its energy nature is actually very similar to the internal energy.
They are all physical and spiritual energies refined by oneself, and can also be integrated with natural energy, that is, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
In addition, ninja training also pays attention to the meridians and acupoints. Although they are not exactly the same as the meridians and acupoints in Middle-earth martial arts, they are generally similar.
Therefore, even if Tsunade cannot practice the fundamental techniques of the Sacred Heart Technique, she can practice some techniques and supernatural powers to enrich her methods.
In addition, there is no conflict between the human immortal martial arts and the chakra system, and at least before the "refining of the acupoints", it does not involve the meridians and acupoints, but simply cultivates the physical strength, so Tsunade is already practicing both.
With such a rich harvest, Ni Kun had no intention of enjoying himself, and he plunged into the quiet room to practice in seclusion.
Zhu Yuyan, Kankan and others also comprehended the Sacred Heart Secret together, and after each of them gained something, they began to retreat.
Only Xiaoqing and Tsunade were left outside to guard the mansion.
The next day, Li Xiuning paid a visit accompanied by Dongfang Bai, but was told that Ni Kun was in seclusion. She could only leave a generous gift and leave with regret.
Before the two left, Xiaoqing called Dongfang Bai, pulled her to a corner, whispered mysteriously for a while, and handed her a thick stack of secret books, several small jade bottles, and a small green sword.
Of course, Ni Kun did not forget Dongfang Bai, and he also prepared for her a copy of the Sacred Heart Sutra, a copy of the Sword Controlling Technique, a few bottles of Heavenly Pearl Honey, and a three-star flying sword seized from Zhitong.
Although Dongfang Bai has stepped into the threshold of the highest realm of the Sunflower Manual, the effect of the Sacred Heart Sutra in prolonging life is very obvious, and comprehending it a little will only benefit her.
Shortly after seeing off Li Xiuning and Dongfang Bai.
Zhao Min also brought her family soldiers and gift boxes to visit.
She looked a little listless. It seemed that even though the Xu Fu incident was resolved perfectly, she still suffered a lot from the Qin Emperor.
However, given Xiaoqing and Tsunade's personalities, they were too lazy to ask what specific punishment they received.
He just said that our master was in seclusion and would not see any outsiders, and then sent Zhao Min and others back.
Zhao Min was originally on this trip with a mission assigned by the Qin Emperor - the Qin Emperor was willing to recruit Ni Kun into the government by offering him the position of national teacher.
Of course, the Qin Emperor did not force this.
As a person with supernatural powers, the First Emperor knew very well that supernatural powers like him who were obsessed with rebuilding the empire were an anomaly.
Yang Guang's behavior of abandoning the throne and walking away after "awakening" is the norm for practitioners.
Ni Kun possesses supernatural powers, but he has never become famous before, which shows that he does not care about fame and fortune.
Even if the position of "National Master" did not impose much restrictions on him, he would probably not be happy to accept it.
The Qin Emperor was mentally prepared for this. Zhao Min didn't see Ni Kun, so she certainly wasn't too worried about being punished by the Qin Emperor. After leaving a gift, she said goodbye and left, only saying that she would visit again in the future.
After sending away two waves of visitors, Xiaoqing and Tsunade had nothing to do, so at Tsunade's instigation, they started playing dice.
For experts who are good at shaking dice, this kind of gambling method allows them to control the outcome to a certain extent, and the impact of luck is relatively small.
Tsunade thought that with her superb dice-rolling skills, she would not lose to Xiaoqing, a novice who had never gambled before.
However, ideals are full and reality is skinny.
Without using supernatural powers to cheat, no matter how high the pure technical level is, it cannot defeat the luck of the European emperor, or in other words, it cannot defeat Tsunade's own invincible power of the unruly.
After gambling for two hours, Tsunade lost everything again, even her underwear.
In the attic.
Xiaoqing looked at the pile of gold bars, gems, and Tsunade's clothes in front of her, then looked at Tsunade sitting opposite with her knees hugged, naked, and said helplessly:
"Tsunade, stop gambling. You even lost all your clothes..."
What's the point of me winning your clothes? We have different sizes, so I can't wear them even if I win them...
Tsunade's face flushed, she gritted her teeth, and her face was full of resentment:
"No, I still have money! I still have a lot of gold stored with Ni Kun! No less than a hundred kilograms!"
Xiaoqing advised kindly:
"But with your luck, no matter how much gold you have, you will lose it all soon. What will you do if you lose it all?"
Tsunade was very stubborn:
"Don't worry, even if I'm penniless, I have Ni Kun to support me!"
"Oh well……"
It’s hard to persuade a damn ghost with kind words.
Under Tsunade's insistence, Xiaoqing had no choice but to continue gambling with her, and finally won all the money that Tsunade had deposited with Ni Kun...
"Why is this happening?"
Tsunade's eyes were dazed, and she didn't even bother to cover her body. She stood naked in front of Xiaoqing, staggering, looking like she had been played with:
"Why is it that Xiaoqing can always get 666 just by shaking the dice, but I am so good at it, but I always get one or two points less than her?"
Xiaoqing looked at Tsunade's chest with a little envy, sighed, and said seriously:
"Tsunade, maybe you've used your luck elsewhere. Gambling really isn't for you. Listen to me and quit."
After saying that, he pushed her clothes back to her:
"Come on, I'll give you your clothes back. Put on your pants first..."
"Why is this happening..."
Tsunade turned a deaf ear to him and just muttered to herself with a dazed look on her face.
Xiaoqing shook her head, stood up, put a coat on her first, then hugged her in her arms, patted her shoulders, and said in a distressed tone:
"Let's never gamble again, okay?"
Tsunade looked at her hopefully:
"Then can the debt I owe you be written off?"
Xiaoqing looked at him with pity and said firmly:
"cannot."
“…”
Tsunade immediately squatted on the ground and started drawing circles with a frustrated look on her face.
Three months later, it was already autumn.
Ni Kun finally ended this long retreat and walked out of the secret room.
Then he saw Xiaoqing lazily lying on a lounge chair basking in the sun, while Tsunade was sitting on a small stool next to the lounge chair, peeling grapes skillfully.
After peeling the grape skin, he carefully removed the grape seeds and then fed the pulp into Xiaoqing's mouth.
Seeing this scene, Ni Kun couldn't help but feel a little amused and asked:
"Xiao Qing, I haven't seen you for only three months. Are you already a young lady?"
"Owner!"
Xiao Qing quickly stood up, bowed to Ni Kun, and said with a smile:
"It's not me who asked for this. It was Tsunade who offered to serve me."
Tsunade looked at Ni Kun miserably, pulling at his clothes, tears streaming down her face:
"Ni Kun, I'm really miserable..."
Well, after she lost all her money, she did not stop there, and continued to drag Xiaoqing to gamble in several ways. In the end, not only did she lose all the property that she had with Ni Kun, but she also incurred a debt that she might not be able to pay off in her lifetime.
In order to get Xiaoqing to show mercy and forgive part of her debt, she had no choice but to serve Xiaoqing attentively like a maid.
After Tsunade wiped her tears and finished telling about her miserable gambling life, Ni Kun sighed and raised his hand to ruffle her silky blonde hair:
"You should chop your hand off."
Tsunade looked at him with tears in her eyes:
"Ni Kun, I swear I will never gamble again... Can you help me reduce Xiaoqing's debt a little?"
Never gamble again? I don't believe you!
Ni Kun curled his lips and said to Xiao Qing:
"Transfer everything Tsunade owes you to my account and I'll help her pay it back."
Xiaoqing smiled sweetly, "Okay, Master."
But I thought to myself, okay, I can't get a penny back this time. The whole snake is yours, how dare I ask you for the debt?
Ni Kun ignored her complaints and asked, "Haven't Yuyan and the others come out yet?"
"Not yet."
"Has anything big happened recently?"
"It's nothing serious. The negotiations between the Li family and the Qin Dynasty are still going on, and they have reached some preliminary intentions... Li Xiuning and Zhao Min have come to visit the master many times, but were blocked by me and Tsunade. By the way, when Zhao Min came two days ago, she said something. She said that there seemed to be demons and ghosts in Zhongnan Mountain, and the Qin Emperor was preparing to send troops out of Hangu Pass to attack Luoyang. He has no time to send troops to eliminate them for the time being. He is willing to pay the master with a five-element spell and ask the master to help eliminate the demons and ghosts."
