Heading South, Training, and Love for Country and Home
Given Ji Boying's current skill level, coupled with his exceptional comprehension,
I only watched the three spear techniques once, but I already knew them by heart.
While slowly deducing the situation in his mind, he watched the two people in the arena, pointing out each other's weaknesses.
Wang Chuyi also told Qiu Chuji and the others about Ji Boying's intention to make a name for himself.
Everyone watched with great interest and discussed the variations in the moves.
After they finished their spear techniques, Ke Zhen'e came up and showed off his Demon Subduing Staff Technique.
He didn't care that his kung fu was seen by the Quanzhen Sect.
Qiu Chuji also took this opportunity to openly admit defeat to Ke Zhen'e.
Just now, when Ji Boying was meditating, he had already said everything.
He memorized several skills.
Creating a set of martial arts best suited for the battlefield is not an easy task.
In particular, we should not only focus on its exquisiteness, but also emphasize its universality.
Similar to the sword techniques left behind at the Mount Hua Sect, Ji Boying also intended to develop a sophisticated version of the spear technique and a more accessible version.
The more advanced techniques were taught to the generals leading the troops, who then charged into battle.
Ordinary tasks are assigned to ordinary soldiers, and this approach enhances their basic skills, creating an elite force.
At other times, in other parts of the martial world, Ji Boying would naturally only think about practicing his own skills, pursuing immortality and transcendence, and reaching the pinnacle of martial arts.
But it just so happens to be this time.
Everyone says that the Jingkang Incident is an unforgettable humiliation.
But the most shameful and emphasized aspect of the Jingkang Incident is actually the affair involving the emperor's family.
The people's misery was naturally overshadowed by the royal gossip.
However, when the grassland army entered the Central Plains, the suffering and cruelty it caused was even greater than that of the Jin Dynasty.
Their Grand Tutor Yelü Chucai submitted a series of measures to the court, including suggestions to reduce indiscriminate killing and protect agriculture, which were beneficial to the people.
However, the actual effect of its adoption and implementation is probably less than a few percent.
Such a small effect was enough to make this person revered as a living bodhisattva by the people of the world.
This shows how deeply the people of the world have suffered persecution.
If one is unaware of these matters, one can simply observe the rise and fall of dynasties and seek personal detachment.
Anyone who knows about such a thing, how could they stand idly by?
At this time, what Ji Boying had to do was not just about clan distinctions, but more about the true meaning of the world.
Even though Ji Boying did not consider himself a morally upright person, the bloody facts were right in front of him, and he could not bury his head in the sand.
"Heroine Han, may you teach me the Maiden of Yue Sword Technique?"
Before Qiu Chuji could even process what had happened, he naturally felt that he had been presumptuous.
"Junior brother, you've already been very generous, offering your family's martial arts to create a battlefield martial art to resist the Jin. If you want to practice swordsmanship, we have our own, and your swordsmanship is quite remarkable..."
Ji Boying laughed and said, "Senior Brother Qiu misunderstands. It's not that I'm greedy and covet other people's skills. The Maiden of Yue Sword Technique was originally a sword technique created by a female knight-errant of the Yue State for killing horses on the battlefield. It was only after it was modified by a master in the Tang Dynasty that it spread throughout the martial arts world."
"I can help to trace its original form and allow this sword technique to regain its glory on the battlefield."
"We are all people of the martial world, and we have to pursue our ambitions. We deal with other people of the martial world most of the time, so we can't waste our martial skills. It would be most appropriate to pass on this sword technique to people of the martial world."
Qiu Chuji nodded repeatedly, admiring him in his heart, Ji Boying smiled with his eyes slightly narrowed.
The Quanzhen Sect had designs on him, hoping to use him to glorify their sect.
Little did they know that Ji Boying was also eyeing the Quanzhen Sect.
Han Xiaoying is indeed a heroine.
The beautiful woman from Jiangnan has weathered the hardships of the northern frontier, and now she is even more resolute.
He wielded his sword with gusto, displaying exquisite, light, and graceful swordsmanship.
After Han Xiaoying finished demonstrating the sword technique, Ji Boying was not stingy with his own.
"Miss Han, what do you think of my swordsmanship?"
He drew his sword and immediately unleashed the Mount Song Seventeen-Route Swordplay.
His swordplay was majestic, like a long spear or halberd, amidst the raging yellow sand. After using the basic sword techniques of the Songshan Sect, he then unleashed the twelve sword techniques of the Songshan Sect from the Five Directions Divine Sword he had created, further increasing his power.
It was truly eye-opening.
Qiu Chuji and Wang Chuyi were the most excited.
They applauded and cheered repeatedly.
Amidst this joyful atmosphere, Guo Jing and the others slowly finished their practice and finally woke up.
"What happened?"
Just as Guo Jing was about to ask a question, Ke Zhen'e grabbed him.
"Jing'er, come here, prick yourself."
"Oh."
Guo Jing took the Poisonous Caltrop and stabbed.
"Hey, Brother Jing, what are you doing!"
Huang Rong quickly reached out to stop her.
Ke Zhen'e then realized that he hadn't explained yet.
He quickly explained what had just happened.
"Don't worry, the poison on this Poisonous Caltrop is minimal, and I have the antidote here, so it won't cause any harm. Let's try it out first to see if we can seize this opportunity."
This time, not only Guo Jing was testing it, but Huang Rong and Mu Nianci also took the Poisonous Caltrop and each pricked a small hole in their fingertip.
Sure enough, the poison was neutralized instantly, and they did indeed benefit from this opportunity, making them virtually immune to all poisons.
They cheered with joy, their hearts overflowing with happiness.
The group of fifteen people then slowly headed south as arranged by Ji Boying.
Every day they discussed martial arts and practiced spear techniques. Ji Boying deduced the Maiden of Yue Sword Technique, while Han Xiaoying served as his experimental subject, practicing the Mount Song Swordplay and integrating it with the Maiden of Yue Sword Technique Mount Song Swordplay.
Ji Boying also passed on the Azure Capital Purple Star Divine Skill to Qiu Chuji, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and Mu Nianci.
He slightly modified the Primordial Chaos Technique and passed it on to Yang Tiexin.
The group worked hard as they traveled.
Along the way, one sees mostly ruins and desolate graves, which evokes a sense of sorrow.
During her breaks from cultivation, Huang Rong would sing Old Mr. Xin's songs, and everyone felt the sorrow in them.
Yang Tiexin and Qiu Chuji recounted old stories to Guo Jing, their hearts filled with resentment.
Under the influence of his surroundings, this descendant of loyal officials, who grew up in the desert, gradually awakened his deep-seated patriotism and it filled his heart.
I am increasingly able to understand the meaning behind Old Mr. Xin's music, and I am increasingly moved by the current situation.
But Guo Jing became increasingly silent while practicing his martial arts.
He was clearly becoming increasingly preoccupied.
After everyone crossed the Yangtze River, Ji Boying finally integrated and refined his marksmanship, bringing forth new techniques.
A new Yang Family Spear Technique has finally emerged.
Yang Tiexin cherished it and practiced diligently every day.
They were not stingy with their knowledge and passed on this spear technique to the Six Eccentrics, Qiu Chuji, Mu Nianci, and others.
Ji Boying also needs to simplify the marksmanship again, creating an easier-to-use simplified version.
Han Xiaoying's swordsmanship, which initially seemed out of place, became increasingly proficient with practice, and her skill improved greatly.
It's not just because the Mount Song Swordplay is powerful, but it also roughly captures the essence of the Maiden of Yue Sword Technique. Although it's unknown whether there's a method of channeling energy, the sword moves faintly reveal the sounds of wind and thunder, making it incredibly powerful.
