"Senior truly possesses unpredictable and miraculous abilities!"

Hong Qigong never imagined that Ye Zhuo's cultivation level was so unfathomable.

He had thought that Wang Chongyang was now a realm above him, but he was already so strong that it was unbelievable.

No matter how strong Ye Zhuo, he can't be that strong.

This miraculous skill immediately startled Hong Qigong.

Could there really be Martial Arts Myth in the world?

As for the Martial Arts Longevity Realm, Hong Qigong simply did not believe it could truly exist.

In his view, for a human being to live to two hundred years old without aging or decay is a feat comparable to that of a deity.

Moreover, the Martial Arts Myth can shatter a mountain with a single punch, which is simply astonishing.

In Hong Qigong's eyes, Ye Zhuo must be Martial Arts Myth!

This will happen in just a few years.

Hong Qigong felt that the first half of his life had been spent in the mundane world, and he was not qualified to come into contact with real martial arts.

The year the Nine Yin Manual was created, he had only learned the fifteenth of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms. His strength was considerable, but it had not yet reached the point of being unpredictable.

Yet he also rose to the ranks of Peak Expert.

Now that the Martial Dao Longevity Art has been released, Hong Qigong feels that there is no end to the pursuit of martial arts.

"Please teach me, senior!"

"I won't teach you anything, I'll only teach you the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms!"

Um?

The Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms?

This was Hong Qigong's signature skill; he needed to learn everything else, but not this.

"Senior, I am the leader of the Beggar's Gang' Sect. Before the age of thirty, I learned everything. After the age of thirty, I learned the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms and the Dog-Beating Staff Technique."

What Hong Qigong wanted to say was that he didn't need to learn this at all.

I hope Ye Zhuo can provide some guidance on the Longevity Formula.

Are you serious?

Ye Zhuo smiled. He knew it; Hong Qigong would really believe that it was the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.

"A century has passed, and there is no one with such powerful inner strength as my old friend."

Even if you cultivate the Nine Yin Manual and greatly increase your internal strength, you can only use the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms as an ultimate offensive technique.

Little did they know that the current Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms were originally twenty-eight palms.

It was created by an old friend who simplified the complex, and also incorporated his martial arts and insights.

Unfortunately, he only thought about how powerful the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms were, but forgot that people in later generations might not have as much internal energy as him.

In this way, it will become weaker and weaker.

Um?

Hong Qigong thought to himself, how could this senior know so much about the Beggar's Gang' Sect's internal affairs?

Unfortunately, the Twenty-Eight Palms technique has long been lost.

The newly improved version of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms is terrifyingly difficult to master.

"I will first teach you the Twenty-Eight Palms, then the Dragon-Subduing Skill. You must match these two with the Eighteen Palms you are currently learning in order to advance further."

Now, with the Nine Yin Manual, the Longevity Formula I created, and having mastered the true essence of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms...

There is definitely a possibility that I will become Martial Arts Grandmaster in this lifetime.

"This junior has learned much from you."

Hong Qigong found it strange that when he visited Wang Chongyang not long ago, he directly gave him the Nine Yin Manual.

It turns out it was because the Longevity Formula had been invented.

Moreover, dozens of people own it at the same time.

In any case, nothing can stop more and more people from finding out.

Now I understand that with the Longevity Formula, the Nine Yin Manual is no longer something that needs to be hidden.

After all, there is only one copy of the Nine Yin Manual, while there are dozens of copies of the Longevity Formula, which are more numerous and stronger.

After Hong Qigong also obtained the Longevity Formula, he looked through it and took a look.

It has everything that's in the Nine Yin Manual, and it even has things that the Nine Yin Manual doesn't.

He finally understood Wang Chongyang's thoughts.

Since we can't hide it, we might as well just give roses directly.

"Watch closely."

Ye Zhuo quickly performed a set of the Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palms and the Dragon-Subduing Skill.

He also passed on all the secret formulas to Hong Qigong.

After all of this was confirmed in his mind, Hong Qigong was both delighted and surprised:

"Hahahaha, brilliant, brilliant!"

The senior's old friend is truly a peerless genius.

He should indeed have done the twenty-eight, but after correcting his mistakes, he can learn from them.

We, however, must work a hundred times harder. Alas, it truly is a blessing in disguise.

Hong Qigong grinned from ear to ear, and only after he had recovered from his surprise did he give Ye Zhuo a martial salute.

"Senior, it is truly not easy to gain enlightenment in life."

Ye Zhuo glanced at Hong Qigong, knowing that he wasn't happy about gaining stronger martial arts skills.

Gifts from others were not important to Hong Qigong.

As an upright person, I will repay what others give me.

The reason for the laughter was simply because they knew that mastering the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

In fact, after Hong Qigong, only Guo Jing mastered Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.

After that, cultivators became weaker and weaker.

Until it reached the point where there were only twelve palms left.

It's utterly unbelievable that reaching this level would lead to a sudden and violent death.

"It's all just your own Creation."

Ye Zhuo didn't say much; it was time for him to travel the world.

"May I ask your name, senior? I will repay this kindness in my lifetime; it is a great favor to my Beggar's Gang's Sect."

Hong Qigong understood and learned about the Twenty-Eight Palms.

You can first teach the Twenty-Eight Palms. After you've mastered them and your internal strength has been honed to a sufficient level, you can then learn the even more powerful Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.

This was undoubtedly a great favor to the Beggar's Gang' Sect.

"Where there's a will, there's a way."

Ye Zhuo a step forward, and a cloud of dust rose from the forest.

Like Tatsumaki.

With a whoosh.

Hong Qigong looked up and saw what appeared to be a giant dragon soaring into the sky.

"But I wonder what kind of martial art the Heaven and Earth Great Shift and Earth you mentioned is?"

He thought for a moment, then wrote a sentence on the Longevity Formula.

"Years ago, I encountered a reclusive master in the bustling city. He seemed to be at the level of Martial Arts Myth, capable of performing the Heaven and Earth Great Shift, transforming into a dragon from the ground and soaring straight to the Nine Heavens."

Hong Qigong was unaware of this.

When this statement was heard by a saintess named Xiao Zhao many years later, she was utterly astonished.

[Bite!]

[Main quest completed: Taught the true Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms to Hong Qigong, the Northern Beggar, and left the martial world to begin your travels]

[Quest reward obtained: Dragon Saber (Perfect Edition)]

A Dragon Saber is in hand.

Ye Zhuo handed it over to his sword-wielding servant, Tatsumaki.

"Damn it, Master, this sword is way too heavy!"

"It's alright, another weapon will probably appear in a while."

Ye Zhuo glanced at Fubuki and realized who his sword-wielding servant was.

"You've been in this world for over a hundred years, aren't you tired of it?"

Fubuki saw Ye Zhuo and glanced over.

She immediately crossed her arms in a coquettish manner.

"Of course it's not boring, it's even extremely interesting."

Ye Zhuo joked.

"The Jade Maiden Manual I practiced last time felt very subtle. It could greatly increase speed and at the same time achieve a kind of youthful and ageless effect similar to the Lesser Formless Skill."

Wang Yuyan found it strange.

"Ye Lang, you should rest too."

Mu Wanqing spoke up, noticing that Ye Zhuo must have been quite exhausted from teaching disciples all this time.

"Brother Ye, which of us, Sister Mu and I, is that newly ordained emperor a descendant?"

Zhong Ling was very curious. She remembered that she and Mu Wanqing had only daughters, so they shouldn't have any grandsons.

"Oh, it's Miss Wang's!"

Zhong Ling asked again, but unexpectedly, Wang Yuyan also looked at Li Qingluo with a puzzled expression.

"Actually, it's my son whom I gave birth to many years ago. I never expected to have a grandson as well. Time really flies."

Li Qingluo's clear and crisp voice surprised even Wang Yuyan.

The two looked at each other, and their faces flushed with embarrassment.

Ye Zhuo, however, didn't care at all what they were saying.

Since ancient times, people have always hoped that their descendants would be granted titles and honors, and no one is willing to turn back, not even them.

Ye Zhuo, however, had long since seen through the illusions of the world; for him, it was all just Xiaoyao journey through life.

The new task is the most important thing now.

[Main Quest Unlocked: After traveling the world, cultivate the Jade Maiden Manual with Huang Rong]

[Quest Reward: Heavenly Sword]

It really is this sword.
