"The kung fu practiced by Du Ying is the magical skill passed down from generation to generation by the leader of the Demon Cult - the breathless skill." Cao Qin looked at the battle situation in Duanhun Gorge from a distance and explained calmly to the four players around him, "This sect's The name of the martial arts sounds very ordinary, but in fact it is an extremely profound and advanced martial arts. If you practice this martial arts to the state of great success, your internal strength will be like a torrential river, and the practitioner can move for three days with just one breath of Dantian energy. Three nights.”
"Hmm... it sounds... a bit like Wudang's Xuanwu Ding (i.e. Turtle Breathing Technique)..." Feng Bujue added from the side.
"No, it's far from it." Cao Qin denied, "Xuanwu Ding emphasizes 'concentration', breathing like a turtle, calming the mind, and concentrating consciousness... At first glance, it is Taoist internal strength." He said, He raised his finger and pointed at Du Ying in the distance, "And the breathless skill that Du Ying practices is an out-and-out demon sect skill; this kind of martial arts requires the practitioner to reverse the meridians and escape from consciousness... in order to seize the opportunity. The creation of heaven and earth uses the energy outside the body for its own use.”
Hearing this, Huajian, who was quite familiar with the field of martial arts, wondered: "Retrograde meridians... isn't there any danger?"
"Ha... Of course there is." Cao Qin said with a smile, "According to common sense, a person with retrograde meridians... will suffer internal and external damage at the least, go crazy and become possessed at the worst, or explode and die in the worst case."
"Ju... can actually explode..." Xiao Tan stared at ℃ and continued with wide eyes.
Cao Qin did not answer his words, but continued: "Most of the martial arts methods of the Demon Cult deviate from the orthodox lineage, and many of them even run counter to the principles of traditional martial arts... Therefore, they are considered by those in the orthodox path to be ' "Evil power' and 'magic power', and they are slandered and scorned." He showed a disdainful smile. "Hmph... But in fact, those who can create such 'evil' techniques are the real geniuses."
"Yes. I completely agree with this." Feng Bujue continued.
When Cao Qin heard this, he turned around and glanced at him. His eyes seemed to say - "Is the leader of Feng Lao bragging?"
Two seconds later, Eunuch Cao continued: "If a martial art can only make those who practice it go crazy or explode to death, then who will practice it? To put it bluntly... it is still a human problem. Because of the creation The talents of those martial arts practitioners are too high, so the miracle skills they create can only be achieved by those with high talents. However, after all, there are many people with mediocre qualifications in this world, especially those who are so-called righteous people. Nine times out of ten, they are pedantic and dull people, and they especially like to stick to their own laurels... If a skill like the Breathless Kung Fu comes into their hands, they will naturally become obsessed with it. "
"So..." Ruoyu asked at this time. "What level has Du Ying's breathless skill reached now?"
Cao Qin picked up the jug hanging from his waist, took a sip, and replied: "About thirty years ago, Du Ying practiced this kung fu to the eighth level. In terms of internal strength alone... the martial arts world at that time There is only one person who can compare.”
"Ha!" Xiaotan immediately answered. "That person... must be you, Eunuch Cao, right?"
"Of course not." Cao Qin replied, "As I said, there is only one person in the martial arts world who can compare with him. I don't count the officials and the masters in the martial arts."
"Then..." Huajian asked, "Who is that person? Is it Yuan Qi?"
"Ha..." Cao Qin laughed, "Yuan Qi was just a minion at that time, how could he be compared with the leader of the Demon Cult." He did not wait for the other party to ask any more questions, and spoke directly after a slight pause. "In the martial arts world thirty years ago, the only person who could surpass Du Ying in terms of internal strength was the 'King of Hell'."
"Speaking of which... who is this 'King of Hell'?" Feng Bujue asked.
"Well... I'll tell you when I see her." Cao Qin didn't respond. It seemed that the time to ask the question hadn't come yet. "Don't interrupt, I'm only halfway talking..." He shook his head and answered. Said, "Legend... there are ten levels of Wuxi Kung Fu, but there is no written record of the tenth level of 'Breathless Heaven and Earth', and only the first generation leader of the Demon Sect who created this set of martial arts practiced it. After he died, Wuxi Kung Fu In total, the mental techniques of Kung Fu were only passed down to the ninth level. In the years that followed... the Demon Sect also produced some talents, but they all stopped at the eighth level, "Mountains and Rivers are Breathless"; so, over time, they thought that practicing It’s considered ‘complete’ when you reach the eighth level.”
"Listen to Eunuch Cao's tone..." Feng Bujue's expression changed slightly, "Isn't Du Ying already beyond that level?"
"Of course." Cao Qin responded, "Today in the world, there are three people who have practiced the Breathless Kung Fu to the ninth level of 'Ghosts and Gods Breathless', and Du Ying... is one of them."
"I'll go... I promised that no one would be able to practice it for many years... but then there are three people in this world who have succeeded?" Xiao Tan said in surprise.
"Haha..." Feng Bujue smiled at this time, "Since Eunuch Cao said 'today's world' instead of 'today's martial arts', I guess among these three people... you also have a place for Eunuch Cao, right?"
"The master of Feng Lao... is really astute." Cao Qin praised Brother Jue, which was regarded as acquiescence. Two seconds later, he said unhurriedly, "Fifteen years ago, there was a war between the Demon Cult and the martial arts in the Central Plains. The last leader Liu Xiangru was killed by Yuan Qi. Almost everyone in the Demon Cult was driven out. Simply... there are still some People survived. Since there was no place for them in the world, they decided to seek refuge with the imperial court, and the spirit of "Wu Xi Gong" was their meeting gift to Jin Yiwei. "
"Eh?" Xiao Tan couldn't help interrupting when he heard this, "How did you, the eunuch, get the things presented to the Jinyiwei?"
"Heh..." Cao Qin replied, "At first, the things did fall into the hands of the Jinyiwei, and Shangguan Si (the commander of the Jinyiwei) practiced it secretly for several months. Until one day I saw him outside the palace... I felt that there was something wrong with the true energy in his body. After further investigation, I found that he was on the verge of going crazy, so I asked him a few words. Three days later, he took the initiative to offer the "Wuxi Gong" and frankly admitted that his qualifications were limited, and asked me to "accept" the magic skill."
"Oh... This Shangguan is also playing around." Feng Bujue complained, "When he found that he couldn't practice it, he came to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha."
"He is a smart man..." Cao Qin said, "He knows very well... Some things. Even if they are useless, you can keep them; but some things, if they can't bring benefits, you have to get rid of them as soon as possible, otherwise it will bring disaster."
Let's stop here. Cao Qin cast his eyes on Yuan Qi: "By the way... speaking of smart people, there is another one here."
"You mean... Alliance Leader Yuan?" Hua Jian responded immediately.
"Yes." Cao Qin replied, "Yuan Qi is a person worthy of everyone's admiration."
"Ho~" Feng Bujue's tone changed, "How could he get such an evaluation from Eunuch Cao? It seems that Yuan Qi must be gifted."
"Gifted?" Cao Qin smiled, "Heh... No, his talents in all aspects are mediocre. But it is precisely because of this... that he deserves admiration."
…………
Just as the Hell Front was extracting all kinds of information from NPCs. The battle situation in the Soul-Breaking Gorge... also changed.
After a short confrontation, Du Ying jumped down from a high place.
And those people in the valley who were in a slump also took advantage of this opportunity to escape from the siege. Retreat to the direction where Du Ying was.
After a few breaths, Du Ying suddenly landed, and where he stood, not even a trace of dust was raised.
Such a heavenly cultivation. Many sect leaders couldn't help but gasp.
"Alliance Master Yuan." Du Ying landed. He completely ignored the people around him, just looked at Yuan Qi and said, "I've heard a lot about you."
Even though Du Ying's current dress is no different from that of an ordinary farmer, his aura of a superior is even stronger than before. The momentum revealed in his gestures is like a deep and majestic abyss; a simple sentence, six words, spoken from his mouth... seems to have a weight of a thousand pounds.
"Mr. Du." Yuan Qi did not call Du Ying "Leader" or call him by his name, but found a compromise and more polite name. "Logically, I should call you 'senior'..." He said so. But Yuan Qi did not act like a junior, he still held the sword in one hand and put the other hand behind his back to speak like this.
"Alliance Master Yuan, you are too polite." Du Ying's voice sounded cold and weak, "I am just a country bumpkin, you are flattering me by calling me sir."
"Well then..." Yuan Qi really stopped being polite to the other party, "Du Ying, let's stop talking nonsense..." He asked, "Are you here to stop us?"
"No." Du Ying replied, "I am here to kill you."
"Humph..." Yuan Qi snorted coldly.
"The Burial Heart Valley has its own rules." Du Ying continued, "You can only come in if the King of Hell lets you in; if the King of Hell doesn't let you in, you have to leave; and if the King of Hell lets you die at three o'clock..."
"Nonsense!" Yuan Qi interrupted him, "We are already in now, and we don't plan to leave, let alone die."
"I know." Du Ying said, "So I'll send you off."
"If you think you can...then try." Yuan Qi was not afraid of the other party. He put the soft sword back to his waist and continued, "I said...you are still alive, which is a blessing for me. I haven't met an opponent like you for many years."
He said this, not afraid of offending people, because the martial artists behind him have long recognized him as the best in the world.
"Okay!" At this moment, Du Ying's demeanor changed, and his restrained momentum also broke out in an instant, accompanied by a raging airflow sweeping forward.
Yuan Qi stood proudly with his hands behind his back, seemingly unmoved.
But the people behind him were in trouble. The headmasters were okay, they just staggered back a few steps, and they could basically stand steady. But the disciples and some second-rate figures in the martial arts world were shocked to kneel on one knee with a livid face.
"Could it be... this is the legendary domineering aura of the king."
"Well... it could also be spiritual pressure."
Seeing this scene, Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi, who were watching from a distant mountain, complained one after another.
And their behavior... was nothing more than the contemptuous eyes of Li Ruoyu and An Yueqin.
"Not bad." After seeing this scene, Cao Qin still commented calmly, "Exerting power from a distance, like a tide, this is the biggest difference between the ninth level and the eighth level. If it is the eighth level, it can only be exerted on the front line." He said, and took another sip of wine, "But... he still can't beat Yuan Qi."
Hearing this, except Feng Bujue, the other three people on the front line of hell and the audience watching the live broadcast were all confused.
Judging from the scene, Du Ying seems to be more powerful than Yuan Qi, after all, his internal force can affect the fog. And Yuan Qi showed only speed and strength in actual combat, and it seems that his status is not as high as that of the former leader of the evil cult.
Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the battle, Eunuch Cao made such a statement as if it was the final word...
Just before he finished speaking, Yuan Qi... took action.
In front of Du Ying's huge internal force, speed and cleverness are useless.
So Yuan Qi's action was not fast, and he did not use the soft sword to the extreme.
He just used the simplest method, rushed to Du Ying directly, and pointed at Du Ying's dantian.
Before the fingertips arrived, his power seemed to be infinite.
At that moment, Du Ying's face suddenly showed shock.
He thought that no one would confront the ninth level of Wuxi Gong head-on like this, because this behavior was like hitting the sea with a fist... No matter how strong the fist is, it can only break the wind and waves for a while, but the power of the sea is endless, and the fist will soon be submerged.
However, Yuan Qi chose this seemingly stupidest approach without hesitation...
Because he saw through it at a glance - the opponent's seemingly flawless martial arts, the only weakness... is its strongest point.
"How ridiculous!" After being shocked, Du Ying was actually angry.
A person who doesn't like fighting, and who is over 60 years old, should not have such emotions. Ordinary people are like this, and people like Du Ying should be even more so.
But at this moment, Du Ying... was angry. When a martial artist finds that the realm he has reached with his life's efforts is instantly broken by another junior who meets for the first time, he will naturally be angry...
The breathless skill is indeed a very strong martial art, and so is the Mingchen Xuangong.
In the long run, as long as the years of practice are long enough, the internal strength of the Mingchen Xuangong practitioner will definitely exceed the breathless skill. But in reality... at least within 30 years, the ninth level of the breathless skill is definitely stronger than the Mingchen Xuangong.
But... a strong skill does not mean you will win.
People are the key to victory or defeat.
Du Ying is very talented, and his breathless skill is also above Yuan Qi's Xuangong, but he has not practiced in actual combat for many years.
Even in the years before he retired from the martial arts world, he had not experienced too many fights, because the enemy was often crushed by his internal force before he could even make a move.
And Yuan Qi... his fighting experience was unmatched by anyone present. In the first few years when he entered the martial arts world, three or five bandits could have taken his life; before he was thirty, Yuan Qi had experienced hundreds of life-and-death fights of all sizes (because even a weak opponent could kill him); later, his martial arts skills gradually improved, and the opponents he encountered became stronger and stronger...
To put it in a metaphor, Yuan Qi is simply a person who fought all the way from street fights to world boxing champions. To put it bluntly... in terms of "fighting" talent, Du Ying is far behind him. (To be continued...)
