The ten people met Lu Li at the original location of the main hall of the South Heaven Sect. Most of these ten people were original disciples of the South Mountain Sect, but there were others who were not. Apart from Feng Qing, there were two other disciples who joined later.

Liu Zihan and Wu Xiaoyi were originally sworn brothers. They trained together for several years under an old man in their hometown and unexpectedly developed good talent, both cultivating internal energy. After the old man died, they set out to roam the martial arts world together.

On the day Lu Li attacked the South Heaven Sect, the two of them were at the foot of the mountain. Their original plan was to come to the South Heaven Sect to seek a higher level of secret martial arts, but when they saw the Black Heaven Descent on the mountain and then found out what had happened, they decisively joined the Black Heaven Hall.

Liu Zihan mainly trained in the Fear skill tree, while Wu Xiaoyi trained in the Destruction skill tree. The two helped each other and gained a foothold among the Black Heaven Hall disciples in just half a month.

"Two things," Lu Li said suddenly, sitting in the main seat and looking at the ten people below.

"First, you will be the hall masters of the ten lower halls from now on. I will teach you some corresponding techniques later. If you still can't secure your positions after that, you will have an internal competition every three months. The loser will step down."

"Secondly, I will give each of you a mask, each one identical to the ten marks outside, allowing you to directly visualize the Black Heaven Secret Realm, so that the disciples won't spend all their time crowding around the stone tablet at the entrance."

"That's it. Any problems?" Lu Li waved his hand, looking at the ten hall masters who all answered "no problem," and said, "Leave. Come in one by one. Hu Hansan, and call the young master in as well."

"Yes, Palace Master." The ten Palace Masters responded simultaneously and withdrew from the main hall.

After a while, Zhao Yifan and Feng Qing walked in together. Lu Li an eyebrow and began to teach the two the moves of the Pride School. After the Pride School was martialized, it had the advantages of lightness of body and a little bit of mental enhancement.

The more you believe in yourself, the stronger your martial arts will become. For this reason, Lu Li created a corresponding technique. In fact, this technique came from Wu Jianguo, who once used two abilities in a dream: one was the True Vision, which allowed him to see a more realistic world, and the other was an unknown ability that allowed him to regain his senses.

Lu Li copied the incomplete information of both through dreams. This time, when creating martial arts moves, he fused the two together and combined them with the ability of Pride to develop a new move: the Lawbreaking Eye.

Those who practice this technique can see through the weaknesses in their opponent's moves, and each time they successfully verify a weakness, it will boost their confidence and further improve their martial arts strength. What surprised Lu Li was that after creating this technique, his resonance with the Eye of Detection in the skill bar increased significantly.

After making sure the two understood, Lu Li dismissed Feng Qing and waited for the next palace master to enter so he could teach them the corresponding techniques.

The characteristic of Hatred is poison. Those who cultivate the martial arts of Hatred have poisonous internal energy. They have created a Poison Mark based on the mark of madness. This technique can release internal energy Implantation into the opponent's body, absorbing the toxins and impurities accumulated in the opponent's body. By using the same internal energy, it can cause the opponent unbearable pain.

Those who cultivate the Fear of the Black Heaven possess an inner energy like black mist. Engaging with them will cause one to feel panicked. The corresponding technique was developed by the Dark River in the Dreamlands. It utilizes inner energy to form a special structure in the palm. When the arm is swung, it will instantly produce a chilling scream. Moreover, the Dark River is still enthusiastically developing the next technique.

Both Destruction and Rage manifest as temperature and flames, so the techniques Lu Li developed are the same, modifying the hands like the Crimson Gauze Hand. However, the effects are different. Destruction is closer to high-temperature destruction, while Rage is similar to Yang Wuye's absorption of temperature.

Envy's inner energy has the ability to cause hallucinations. Therefore, Lu Li's corresponding moves are derived from Assassin's footwork, making the members of the Envy Hall move like ghosts when they fight.

Greed internal energy causes muscles to expand, gaining immense power. Lu Li speculates that in the later stages of development, it should also gain the life-absorbing ability of Giant Species. The skill it creates is to fill the skin and muscles with internal energy, making them as hard as iron.

The internal energy of Sloth internal energy cultivators seems to have vitality and the ability to cultivate automatically. Lu Li combined some information from Seven Kills Certain Death and South Heaven One Qi to create a skill that plants seven internal energies in the opponent's body. These seven internal energies will then connect and release intense high temperatures, scalding the person to death.

The internal energy from Gluttony will strengthen all the organs related to eating for cultivators, allowing them to consume large amounts of food and enhance their physical bodies. Lu Li, combining the experience of the Crimson Gauze Hand and the crafting of magical items, specially created a set of recipes for them. As long as they eat according to the corresponding procedures, they can make themselves invulnerable to swords and spears.

Among those who cultivate inner energy related to Lust, few specialize in this; it's usually a secondary practice. Of course, some lustful demons choose to make it their main focus. They possess immense energy and are highly prolific. Combining Wu Jianguo's use of his own conscious information, Lu Li created a technique to maintain his rationality. He didn't want his subordinates to all become driven by their lower bodies. As a result, the Lust Hall consistently ranked at the bottom. Several years later, another path was developed.

After all ten moves were taught, Zhao Yifan, who was listening from the side, felt a little dizzy. So he shook his head, put the moves aside for the time being, and asked Lu Li some questions about cultivation.

"Master, I have been practicing lately and I always feel that the Three Suns Seven Stars are out of balance. My mind is not in harmony and I am prone to leaning towards Pride and Greed. My internal energy is also chaotic and unstable. Please enlighten me, Master." Zhao Yifan asked respectfully.

"What did you see in the Black Heaven Secret Realm Visualization Diagram?" Lu Li asked Zhao Yifan with a smile, while subtly activating his connection with the Dreamlands to Deepening Zhao Yifan's impression of Dreamlands.

"Isn't it the Three Suns Seven Stars?" Zhao Yifan asked, slightly puzzled, then suddenly realized and hurriedly said, "It's endless darkness."

"That's right. The Three Suns Seven Stars are radiant and eye-catching, but the most fundamental foundation of the Black Heaven is the endless shadow." Lu Li nodded and said, "You must remember, the Three Suns Seven Stars are only the lower ten palaces; the Black Heaven Hall is the source that governs everything."

"Therefore, your visualization should focus on endless shadows. Whether it's the Three Suns or the Seven Stars, they are merely extensions of shadows. Only in this way can you unify them and incorporate their characteristics into one."

Lu Li stretched out his hand, releasing a ball of black inner energy. This inner energy possessed various characteristics, encompassing all the properties of the Three Suns Seven Stars: "Only in this way can you truly cultivate the Black Heaven Great Art, break through the myth, and bring Black Heaven Descent."

"Step down and focus on your cultivation. I will assess your performance in a while." Lu Li waved for Zhao Yifan to leave, then unfolded the Dreamlands again, pondering the essence of various abilities.

That concludes the fourth update. However, with 700 monthly votes already Xu Ming, I still owe two more updates. Thank you all for your support.
