Chapter 140: Two Years, Retirement (Two in One)

……

……

time flies!
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye!

In just two years, the martial arts world has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The Huashan Sect, which was once on the decline, has grown to a school with thousands of students in just two years, becoming a leading force in the martial arts world.

Not only that, the current practice of taking cards seems to have the tendency to swallow up the world and unify the martial arts world!

The main reason?

Of course, it was because there were two great masters, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, within the Huashan Sect. It was precisely because of these two funny guys causing trouble in the middle that the Huashan Sect inexplicably showed signs of unifying the martial arts world!
For this terrible sign.

The famous and upright sects in the world have long been on pins and needles, and have been in a state of panic all day long. Even the once rampant demon sect has sensed the huge crisis and quickly withdrew its forces, obviously not wanting to bring bad luck upon itself.

And all this.

It all starts with the entrance exam two years ago and the [Brief History of Qi].

Two years ago, no one would have expected that this book “A Brief History of Qi” which only sold for ten cents and the simple establishment of a school would actually create the behemoth it is today and cause the entire martial arts world to go completely crazy.

Yes!

Just run away!

At first, old man Feng Qingyang only thought that the emergence of [A Brief History of Qi] would most likely uproot all the major sects, but he never expected it.

The world will go haywire because of this thing.

To the point where it is completely incomprehensible.

This is not!

Today, the spy, Laudeno, went up the mountain to report with a stack of letters and a helpless look on his face.

“My dear uncle-master, these are the letters sent today by Shaolin, Wudang, and other major sects!” He presented the letters respectfully.

“Ah? Are they not strongly protesting against Huashan Academy for cracking their martial arts secrets again?” Xu Wenhe took it casually and asked with a smile on his face.

“…”

This statement came out.

Everyone present rolled their eyes involuntarily.

Old man Feng Qingyang was the first one who couldn’t help himself: “Boy, this is the third letter of protest today, can you please take it seriously?”

Xu Wenhe spread his hands and said, “But I didn’t take it lightly. I have already explained clearly that cracking the martial arts secrets of various sects is a spontaneous act of other martial artists. It has nothing to do with my Huashan Sect!”

Huh, nothing to do with it?

When the people present heard this shameless answer, they were all speechless.

In fact, all the Huashan Sect disciples present knew that a large number of cracked versions of secret manuals had appeared in the world because of the spread of “A Brief History of Qi” by a certain joking person.

If this thing did not comprehensively explain the essence of Qigong, and creatively propose the theory of building blocks.

It is impossible for various cracked versions of cheats to appear in the world.

Now this guy shamelessly says it has nothing to do with him.

Linghu Chong was amused.

“Uncle-master, everyone in the martial arts world knows that it is because of you that you spread the “Brief History of Qi” that everyone learned to crack martial arts by using the method of building blocks. No matter how much you deny it, it is useless.” He kindly reminded him.

“That’s right. If you, uncle-master, hadn’t beaten up Yu Canghai and Ding Mian two years ago and deliberately spread the “A Brief History of Qi”, they would never have caused any trouble to our Huashan Sect!” Yue Lingshan ruthlessly exposed someone’s past.

And the root of all this, just as she said, was caused by this funny guy.

Back then, Yu Canghai and Ding Mian deliberately jumped out to question whether this thing was fake in order to disgust someone, but they were beaten back by the people who made fun of them, as a warning to others.

This move directly left all the famous and upright sects helpless.

This forced all the famous and upright families to end the farce of questioning, and the entrance ceremony was finally carried out smoothly.

At that time, everyone thought that they just had to give in and get by, but no one expected this.

Just two days later.

After the three entrance examinations were completed, the vast majority of applicants were rejected. After these unqualified people brought [A Brief History of Qi] down the mountain, things suddenly became wrong.

The entire martial arts world was surprised to find out.

[A Brief History of Qi] is not as simple as a high-level martial arts book. The real function of this thing should actually be to teach you how to create high-level martial arts, and how to cultivate a supernatural body… a textbook.

Once you learn how to create martial arts using building blocks, you will naturally learn how to crack them, because the principles are the same.

and so!
At that time, Master Fang Sheng almost fainted when he saw this thing.

It was obvious that the old monk already knew that the situation was not good.

but!

But I really can’t beat Xu Wenhe.

We can only allow the situation to develop to the point it is today.

It’s better now.

Obviously, all this was done by some funny guy.

But he refused to admit it.

“Tsk, it’s true that I was the one who spread [A Brief History of Qi], but what does the cracking of it have to do with me? Am I going to hold a knife and force people in the martial arts world to crack [Yi Jin Jing] and [Tai Chi Sword Technique]?” Xu Wenhe asked shamelessly as he opened the letter.

“But you were the one who taught me how to crack it!” Yue Lingshan was not convinced and retorted with a pout, showing her disrespect for elders.

Xu Wenhe was not angry. Instead, he cheerfully replied while opening the letter, “Nonsense, I clearly taught how to create high-level martial arts. The students learned how to crack them on their own. If you don’t believe me, you can check out the Brief History of Qi!”

Upon hearing this, Yue Lingshan rolled her eyes and said, “Tsk, you wrote the book, of course you won’t leave any room for criticism!”

Of course, the truth was just as he said, Xu Wenhe really did not leave any room for criticism.

[A Brief History of Qi] It was indeed as he said, he never taught how to break the upper-level martial arts, but he did teach all the principles of creating martial arts. The upper-level martial arts were included in it, but they were just used to explain the principles…teaching plans.

Yes!

That’s right, they are teaching plans. For example, the pure Yang Qi for practicing the [Pure Yang Body] and the electric power that Laudenuo used to defeat Ding Mian are all regarded as classic teaching plans and recorded in them. Anyone can practice them.

but!

The real core of [A Brief History of Qi] is not these teaching plans, but its in-depth explanation of the principles of Qi changes and how to use these principles to create the most suitable…advanced martial arts for oneself.

As for how this was created.

In fact, the principle is very simple.

All martial arts are composed by utilizing the basic meridians, so the meridians are like building blocks with different functions.

The different martial arts are eventually formed simply because each set of kung fu uses these building blocks in a different way.

Therefore, [A Brief History of Qi] summarizes the basic functions of each meridian, and uses upper-level martial arts as examples to illustrate how to build the building blocks, which is equivalent to teaching everyone how to use each building block.

Learners can naturally use these building blocks to create martial arts, instead of just following what the predecessors said should be practiced in a certain way as in the past.

but.

It is not easy to design and create martial arts. You have to find someone to practice with first, and you have to have mature cases to refer to, so that you can proceed step by step, right?

then
Everyone turned their attention to the existing martial arts.

For example, the [Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing], the [Yi Jin Jing], the [Sunflower Manual], in short, almost all martial arts with a little fame have become the targets of students to crack.

After these students understood the basic functions of meridians, they started with imitation, and naturally cracked those famous martial arts bit by bit.

For example, to break the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing, one has to start with “Regrets of the Dragon”. The essence of this move is to have a surplus and not exhaust it. It requires that you exert ten points of strength while retaining twenty points of strength for yourself to ensure that the momentum continues. The key is the word “regret”.

If you only listen to these profound principles, to learn the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, hehe, even if you are a genius, it will probably take a lot of time.

But if you want to crack it, you don’t have to follow the same technical route, so you can find another way.

For example, you know that the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms requires the ability to be endless. To sum it up, isn’t it just about leaving twenty points of true Qi in the meridians and not releasing it? That’s easy to do.

Just add a building block. The purpose is to store the 20 points of hidden energy in it for future use. After conversion, the power can be stored in the meridians that are not used, or even in the muscles and blood.

You see, isn’t this problem solved?

Although this is definitely not the original [Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing], as long as the effectiveness of the palm technique is the same and it is just a change of technical route, there is nothing unacceptable.

As long as the goal is achieved.

then!

As time went by, various cracked versions of cheats were born.

Even the Huashan Sect is included.

The martial arts secrets of all the famous and upright sects could not escape the fate of being cracked.

But his own martial arts secrets were cracked by someone.

This… is almost like digging up someone’s roots.

and so.

Except for people like Xu Wenhe who don’t follow the beaten path.

It would be strange if the famous and upright sects like Shaolin and Wudang did not get angry.

It is for this reason that Shaolin and Wudang wrote letters to protest.

However, Xu Wenhe did not take it seriously at all. He didn’t even read any letters of protest and threw them aside.

Until I opened the last letter from Hengshan School.

Xu Wenhe was stunned: “Well, Liu Zhengfeng wants to retire, what’s going on?”

He looked very surprised.

Obviously, the martial arts world has been completely changed by him, and the Hengshan Sect has also encountered various changes due to the emergence of a cracked version of the secret book, but Liu Zhengfeng actually wants to retire.

What the hell?

Looking confused.

But his reaction seemed a bit too much.

Linghu Chong immediately frowned, “Uncle Yu, Uncle Liu is just retiring from the underworld, why are you so surprised?”

“nothing!”

Xu Wenhe waved his hand, indicating that it was okay: “I’m just a little surprised. But since Senior Brother Liu from Hengshan Sect wants to retire, it’s reasonable for me to go and show my support. Hmm… How about this, I’ll go there in person this time!”

He pondered for a moment.

Leziren quickly made a decision that seemed incredible to outsiders.

Inside the Zhengqi Hall.

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Linghu Chong’s eyes widened, and he looked at him in disbelief: “Uncle Master, are you really sure you want to go and show your support to Uncle Master Liu?”

Xu Wenhe: “Yes, the Five Mountains Sword Sects are of the same origin. Senior Brother Liu is retiring from the battlefield, so I will go to show my support. What’s the problem?”

“…”

Listen to this guy say that the Five Mountains Sword Sects are of the same blood.

The expressions of everyone present were very strange.

The word “disbelief” was almost written on his face.

Xu Wenhe immediately said, “Hey, what are you looking at? In the past two years, apart from the fact that Junior Brother Lao accidentally stabbed Senior Brother Ding Mian with a sword, which was later cleared up, other than that, Huashan Sect has a good relationship with the other sects. Is it wrong for me to say that the Five Mountains Sword Sects are of the same blood?”

Uh……

This……

When everyone present heard this, they couldn’t find any words to refute for a while.

Because if you think about it,

It’s exactly as Xu Wenhe said.

Except for the fact that they don’t get along well with the Songshan School.

The Huashan Sect has a decent relationship with the other Five Mountains Sword Sects.

Although I know that this guy is just making excuses.

But you can’t fault him.

But it’s always creepy that Xu Wenhe suddenly and unexpectedly decided to join Liu Zhengfeng in his retirement.

Feng Qingyang had a bad feeling: “Okay, let’s not talk about the Five Mountains Sword Sects being of the same blood. But, Yu boy, you suddenly want to attend Liu Zhengfeng’s retirement ceremony. Are you up to something bad again?”

Mmmmmmm!
Everyone nodded upon hearing this.

Well known.

As long as someone funny behaves out of character.

He definitely didn’t have any good intentions.

but!

I swear to God, this time Xu Wenhe went to attend Liu Zhengfeng’s retirement ceremony purely out of curiosity and just wanted to watch the process.

Anyway, the martial arts world has been completely changed by him. Even if the Songshan Sect wants to merge the Five Mountains Sects, it can’t do it. Naturally, there is no need to take the risk of offending the Hengshan Sect and use Liu Zhengfeng as a warning to others.

In this way, Liu Zhengfeng might be able to retire safely.

Although the famous scene may be gone.

But isn’t it nice to look at it?
That’s it.

but!

Such a simple thing is now suspected of having ulterior motives.

Xu Wenhe felt even more wronged than Dou E: “Hey, old man Feng, I just robbed your Huashan Sect and haven’t returned it yet. There’s no need for you to think so badly of me, right?”

“…”

It is simple and has not been returned yet.

He pierced the lungs of all the Huashan Sect disciples present on the spot.

Feng Qingyang, who was smiling just now.

He instantly blew his beard and glared.

“Fuck, you robbed our Huashan Sect, and you told us not to think so badly of you, Yu boy, do you still have any shame?”

“No, what’s wrong!”

“you……”

Such shameless behavior.

Feng Qingyang was so angry that he was speechless.

Seeing that his uncle Tai Shi was angry again.

Linghu Chong felt helpless and quickly reminded him, “Uncle Taishi, don’t be angry. Uncle Taishi is just trying to piss you off. The angrier you are, the happier he is!”

snort!
Upon hearing this, old man Feng Qingyang snorted coldly and turned his head away arrogantly.

Hey!

Xu Wenhe smiled cunningly: “Well, it seems that there is no fun, but forget it, let’s talk business, my nephew, please make arrangements. We will leave for Hengshan City in two days to join your uncle Liu in his retirement ceremony.”

“Yes!”

Upon hearing this, Lao Denuo, who had been standing by as an invisible figure for a long time, bowed and accepted the task.

“As for Huashan Sect, I’ll leave it to you, Old Man Feng. But be careful when I’m not around, and don’t let anyone steal it again!”

“Humph, you don’t need to remind me.”

“Okay, that’s it, everyone get ready, we’ll set off in two days!”

……

A few words of effort.

Xu Wenhe decided to participate in the retirement ceremony.

As for the purpose?

Hehe, I just want to see how Liu Zhengfeng will retire from the underworld, and listen to the famous song “Swordsman” while I’m at it.

Anyway, that’s probably the purpose.

but!

The real best master in the world went to participate in Liu Zhengfeng’s retirement.

Don’t say that Linghu Chong and others don’t believe it.

Even the students of Huashan College don’t believe such nonsense.

As the Huashan Sect’s talented individuals, Gao Genming and Liang Fa naturally did not believe it, so when they heard the news.

My first reaction was one of excitement.

“Haha, Junior Brother, Senior Uncle Yu has come down the mountain. It looks like he’s finally going to take action!”

“Yes, that’s right. After two years, Uncle Master has finally made a move. Even if it’s not a physical move, it will definitely cause a huge stir. I’m afraid that this martial arts world… is going to be in turmoil again!”

“What are you afraid of? As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. Now is the time for us to show our abilities.”

“That’s right!”

……

Just when the Dragon and the Phoenix were excited.

Laudeno and his men were already prepared, and this action was public.

Therefore, before Xu Wenhe even went down the mountain, the news that he was going down the mountain spread in all directions as fast as if it had wings.

It only took one day.

The nearest sect received the news, and the entire martial arts world was shocked for a moment!
　I’m writing a little slowly today, so I won’t split it up and just combine the two into one!
