Returning the Way to the Other, Returning It to Their Body-Little Formless Art
Thinking of these pretense used by righteous people, Dongfang Bai's eyes were full of disdain.
What did she do that endangered the world, allowing them to utter the words that the Dongfang has suffered under the Eastern invasion for too long?
Because I've been caught in the rain before, I know how to hold an umbrella for others.
In the territory ruled by her Sun Moon Holy Cult, the people were not exactly happy, but they lived in peace and contentment. At least no sect dared to cause trouble in her Dongfang Bubai.
That's normal, though. For these righteous people, what you did isn't important; what matters is that your existence is detrimental to them!
The world is always black and white.
We are white, so no matter what we do, we will always be white.
But you are black, no matter what good deeds you do, you will always be black.
Black is always black, and white is always white!
This Jianghu, this entire realm, is a chessboard, with only black and white pieces.
To change this situation, you must transcend your role as a pawn, become the one who controls the pawns, and then overturn the chessboard.
The Ordinary Group Owner: "Seriously? Where did they get the guts?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "And they should be pretty busy right now, right?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "The struggle for the Evil-Warding Sword Manual, the matter of retiring from the Golden Basin Hand-Washing Ceremony, and the renewed Sword-Qi Conflict —how did they unite?"
Su Yunqing asked with some doubt, "Even if Dongfang Bai didn't participate in the plot, some things should still happen."
The Five Mountains Alliance is currently disunited in both personnel and morale; how could they possibly unite to attack Dongfang Bai?
Even if they unite, who will lead the alliance?
Yue Buqun? Zuo Lengchan? It can't possibly be Shaolin, right? Would Zuo Lengchan agree?
Dongfang Bubai: "Because of Linghu Chong."
Dongfang Bubai: "He is very strong now; even I back then might not have been able to defeat him."
Dongfang Bubai: "Upon his first departure from the mountain, he challenged the entire world with his sword. From the Qingcheng Sect, Mount Heng, Songshan Sect, Shaolin, to Wudang, no one was his match. Even the former Mount Hua Sword Saint, Feng Qingyang, was defeated by him within a hundred moves."
Dongfang Bubai: "Moreover, he seems to have mastered an Internal Energy method that can Mimic the martial arts of others and unleash even greater power, known in the Jianghu as 'using their own methods against them.'"
Ordinary Group Owner: "???"
Ordinary Group Owner: "Are you sure you're talking about Linghu Chong?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "With a sword that can conquer the world, none can rival me? I'll use their own methods against them?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "Wasn't he a third-rate expert when he first came down from the mountain?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "His Internal Force is lacking, his swordsmanship is poor, and he couldn't even beat Tian Boguang. How did he suddenly become able to beat Feng Qingyang?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "This isn't the Linghu Chong I know! Absolutely not!"
The Ordinary Group Owner: "It's definitely Transmigrator! Definitely! If not, I'll just eat it. I can't be too sure of myself. What if it's another version of Linghu Chong that someone filmed after I time-traveled? That would be awkward."
Su Yunqing ultimately didn't utter that word, but he found Linghu Chong's "using their own methods against them" analogy, as described by Dongfang Bai, utterly perplexing.
And that internal Internal Energy method... the more I listen, the more it sounds like the Little Formless Art.
If it really is the Little Formless Art, putting aside where Linghu Chong obtained the inheritance, the key question is how he inherited Murong Fu's title?
That doesn't seem accurate either; it should be that it inherited the title of the Star-Shifting Yi".
But thinking about it, it makes sense. She didn't know how the Star-Shifting" technique worked, but the Little Formless Art" could indeed imitate the martial arts of a hundred schools, and its power was not weak, or even superior.
Dongfang Bubai: "Perhaps it's the butterfly effect."
Dongfang Bubai: "Didn't you say that any change we make after knowing the plot could potentially affect the future of this world?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "But this has had a huge impact."
The Ordinary Group Owner, "Besides, he became so powerful right after coming down from the mountain, but he only met you after coming down from the mountain."
Ordinary Group Owner: "This is unreasonable."
Ordinary Group Owner: "If he's not Transmigrator, I only think there are two possibilities."
Ordinary Group Owner: "One type is your version of The Smiling Proud Wanderer remake, which is even more fantastical. While retaining your template, it also changes Linghu Chong's personality, cultivation, and talent, drastically altering the entire plot and making it almost unrelated to the original work."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Another type is where an author writes a fanfiction of The Smiling Proud Wanderer, but there are no Transmigrator in it; they just change Linghu Chong's character setting to their own."
Ordinary Group Owner: "But strictly speaking, the second type is also equivalent to Transmigrator."
Ordinary Group Owner: "@Child of Son of Nature, Yuanfang, what do you think?"
Analytic the situation for a long time, Su Yunqing finally decided to give the microphone to Bai Xuan.
Bai Xuan had also finished reading the information above and understood why Su Yunqing had tagged him.
The Linghu Chong in the current world of Dongfang Bubai is not exactly the same as the Linghu Chong in the original work; they are completely unrelated.
But one thing puzzled him.
Son of Nature: " In the Dongfang, how did the Sun Moon Holy Cult know through its information channels that it was his Internal Energy cultivation that allowed him to imitate the opponent's martial arts, rather than his actual martial arts skills?"
Dongfang Bubai: "What's the difference?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "The Internal Energy is most likely the Little Formless Art, and the martial arts are the Star-Shifting."
Ordinary Group Owner, "If Bai Xuan hadn't brought it up, I wouldn't have asked. Are the Sun Moon Holy Cult's information channels that amazing? How did they even know this?"
Dongfang Bubai: "No, he said it himself."
Dongfang Bubai: "When he challenged the world with his sword, he used the martial arts of the opposing sect to defeat them. While they were shocked, those sects naturally suspected that Linghu Chong had stolen their martial arts. Linghu Chong's explanation was that it was the ability of the Internal Energy he had learned."
Dongfang Bubai: "At first, they were skeptical, thinking that it was impossible for Itachi to have such unique martial arts. But later, every time Linghu Chong defeated his opponent using the opponent's martial arts, and with even greater power."
Dongfang Bubai: "Even if Linghu Chong exceptionally talented, it's impossible for him to have mastered so many martial arts techniques to such a profound level at his age."
Dongfang Bubai: "Over time, they came to believe this reason."
Given Linghu Chong's strength at the time, he wouldn't stoop to deceiving them.
Many others later became interested in Linghu Chong's Internal Energy, but after they made their move, they were all undoubtedly killed by Linghu Chong's sword.
It wasn't just the assassins they sent out, but also themselves and the families and forces behind them.
Cut the weeds and eliminate the roots.
In this respect, Linghu Chong showed absolutely no mercy.
