Annihilating a Sect (2)
With a single tael of gold, Lu Li paid the bill for the meal and also asked the waiter to help him buy a carriage. He hired Hu Hansan as the driver, and then, with Zhao Yifan in tow, Lu Li began to modify his internal energy cultivation technique using the internal energy manual.
When a normal person practices, the first thing to do is to understand the meaning of the mantra. Then, they should continuously visualize a picture according to the mantra. It's not that no one has thought about drawing a visualization picture, but everyone's visualization picture carries their own imprint, which is actually not conducive to the disciple's refinement of the artistic conception.
Only those who have thoroughly studied this skill, removed their personal imprints, and possessed profound painting skills can complete a useful visualization diagram. Only the top schools might have one or two of these visualization diagrams.
Therefore, ordinary disciples usually have to rely on words, imagine for themselves, and constantly adjust them to suit their own personal characteristics. Over time, this is the only way to stabilize the artistic conception they create, so as to condense life energy and imprint their personal spiritual mark.
What follows is a process of accumulation, where one continuously gathers life energy and internal energy to activate the visualized image. As for the path ahead, Lu Li has a general idea, but he still needs to acquire some secret martial arts techniques to determine the exact direction.
At this time, Lu Li was unaware that Hu Hansan, who was driving the carriage, possessed a secret martial arts manual. Instead, he was contemplating perfecting the first volume of his own martial arts manual, which guided people to imagine stable scenes through words—a process that was far too slow.
At this rate, if the disciple's comprehension is weak, a lot of time will be wasted. We must speed up this process. Lu Li's gaze sharpened, and he beckoned Zhao Yifan over.
"Master, may I ask what's the matter?" Zhao Yifan walked over respectfully, bowed and greeted him. Then he saw Lu Li's hand grow bigger and bigger, and he slapped Zhao Yifan on the head. Lu Li's Dreamlands forcefully invaded Zhao Yifan's dream.
From then on, every time Zhao Yifan dreamed, he saw the scene of the Lu Li Dreamlands: in a writhing darkness, the sky had three pitch-black suns and seven stars of various colors in an extremely abnormal way.
When Zhao Yifan woke up, it was already dark. He stood up in a panic, shook his head to keep himself awake. The writhing darkness in his mind was unbearable even for Zhao Yifan's reborn mind. He figured if this continued, he would become a madman.
"But wasn't this something I had already thought of?" Zhao Yifan chuckled self-deprecatingly. He wanted to reach the pinnacle, he wanted to be invincible. Wasn't it only right to pay some price for it? As long as he could achieve his goal, what did it matter if he went mad?
Regarding the dream vision, Zhao Yifan recognized it as the infamous Black Heaven Secret Realm Visualization Diagram. A few years later, this diagram would be spread. After the original righteous sect Cloud Mountain Sect, saw the Black Heaven Secret Realm Visualization Diagram, the sect leader pointed out that the diagram was ominous and that those who visualized it would undergo a drastic change in their character. Subsequently, he himself could not resist practicing it and slaughtered his disciples, leading to the decline of the Cloud Mountain Sect.
It is said that every star and every sun in the Black Heaven Palace has a corresponding secret martial art. In the future, each of the ten lower palaces of the Black Heaven Hall will master a corresponding secret martial art. The martial arts of each palace master are unfathomable, but each of them is not mentally sound.
Combining these ten martial arts into one creates the strongest martial art and mythical martial art created by the Black Heaven Hall: the Black Heaven Great Art.
He had just faced the Black Heaven Secret Realm Visualization Diagram directly, and the thought of having to look at that scene every day in the future made him tremble. In his previous life, the person who followed Lu Li, the Black Heaven Hall, was the future Little Black Heaven Lin Feng. When that guy came out of the mountain, he was a little abnormal, but he still maintained a certain degree of rationality.
Zhao Yifan sighed inwardly. This Lin Feng was just a seven or eight-year-old child, yet he could endure for so long under the Black Heaven Secret Realm Visualization Diagram. So he himself would definitely be fine.
Far away in another direction, Lin Feng, a transmigrator who was talking to the system, suddenly stopped, feeling inexplicably that he had escaped a calamity.
"You're awake? Try visualizing it, along with these incantations." Lu Li glanced at Zhao Yifan, then recited a mantra. Zhao Yifan quickly memorized it, then nodded as expected.
These five people appeared out of nowhere, each possessing extraordinary skills, but they weren't particularly familiar with martial arts. Their martial arts were all adapted little by little from the rudimentary internal energy cultivation practiced by Hu Hansan.
Zhao Yifan followed Ding Yuan, the number one Assassin in the world, in the same way, only the teaching methods were different. The first incantation he received from Ding Yuan was similar in content to both, but it was modified to some extent due to its unique characteristics.
Zhao Yifan's expression was resolute as he said to Lu Li, "Master, I feel something's wrong here... If the visualization of the incantation here is upward, it won't connect with the following content, and also here..."
Lu Li wore a strange smile and didn't investigate why this little disciple knew so much. Instead, he asked Zhao Yifan about it little by little. Zhao Yifan didn't hide anything and told him everything about the Assassin martial arts he had learned in his previous life.
Three days later, after rushing for three days, they had entered the territory of the South Heaven Sect. They found an inn to stay temporarily, preparing to attack the South Heaven Sect in a couple of days.
"So, the first draft of the first volume of Black Heaven is now complete." Lu Li nodded. Combining the Assassin martial arts provided by Zhao Yifan with his own understanding, he finally finalized the first draft of a basic martial arts manual. There are still some parts that need careful study, but for now, it's already like this.
Zhao Yifan had become somewhat numb. At first, he could still chime in with his experience of advanced martial arts, but in the following period, he just watched Lu Li gradually transform the original tattered framework into a scroll of martial arts whose depth he couldn't fathom.
"Is this the gap between me and a mythical martial artist? I will definitely catch up." Zhao Yifan took the Black Heaven Volume One from Lu Li's hand. He believed that this Black Heaven Volume One was definitely different from the one in his previous life, after all, it incorporated the Assassin martial arts he brought.
"Study diligently for a while. If you need anything, contact Hu Hansan. I have to go out for two or three days." After saying this, Lu Li left the inn before Zhao Yifan could react and quickly disappeared from sight.
Back in the Dreamlands Realm, the pitch-black tentacles coiled around its clone, which was about to undergo an upgrade, transforming into a martial arts clone to put into practice the newly completed Black Heaven scroll.
At the same time, by leveraging the massive computational power of both the physical body and the Dreamlands, one can refine and develop corresponding martial arts techniques. After all, if the goal is to drive the development of the world, it would be better to organize these techniques into skills that people can learn.
I recalled the Assassin footwork and dagger usage I had learned before, the claw attacks of the Claw Ghost, the martial arts taught by Zhou Chu, some fighting techniques I learned from the Spirit Envoy World, some ability information copied from Wu Jianguo 'All Living Things, and finally, the Assassin martial arts brought by my little apprentice.
Lu Li began to construct a martial arts system centered on internal energy.
That concludes the fourth update. Including yesterday, that makes two extra updates, but I still owe two. Also, regarding Lu Li's martial arts system, please help brainstorm and design some moves. Finally, please vote and give me a reward! ￥...￥
