I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

#146 - A test from Xie Lingyun

Xie Lingyun, however, didn't notice the strangeness of Zhang Chen's expression at this moment, but was explaining the True Dragon Great Frame to Zhang Chen. Xie Lingyun explained it very meticulously, even more meticulously than Xiao Douding.

"Did you understand?" Xie Lingyun asked Zhang Chen after finishing the demonstration.

Zhang Chen wasn't an idiot. Xie Lingyun was essentially breaking it down and feeding it to him directly. If he still didn't understand, then he would be an idiot.

Then Zhang Chen began to practice, and Xie Lingyun reached out to correct Zhang Chen's movements.

As Xie Lingyun corrected Zhang Chen's movements, her slender fingers brushed across the acupoints around Zhang Chen's body, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "Is he just an ordinary person? There is no mysterious aura on his body at all."

However, although she was disappointed, she still wholeheartedly guided Zhang Chen in the True Dragon Great Frame:

"In fact, the so-called Ming Jin or An Jin are all techniques. It has nothing to do with how long you have been practicing martial arts. Some people comprehend the technique of explosive force in a few months, while others practice for a lifetime and still can't grasp the knack."

Hearing Xie Lingyun's words, Zhang Chen was thoughtful. However, as a cultivator, he had to conceal himself and mingle with a group of martial artists all day long, and he had to work hard to practice martial arts every day, which was really embarrassing for him.

However, at this moment, Zhang Chen had another thought: How could the noble lady in front of him know the True Dragon Great Frame of the Yellow Sky Dao? Could it be that the noble lady in front of him is also a member of the Yellow Sky Dao?

But it doesn't seem like it! If the noble lady in front of him is a member of the Yellow Sky Dao, then why would Huangli Temple have to stop its daily morning classes?

Under the supervision of the noble lady, Zhang Chen diligently practiced the True Dragon Great Frame. Xie Daoyun nodded in satisfaction as she watched Zhang Chen's movements become more and more standard: "Not bad. To comprehend Ming Jin and integrate the power of the whole body into one, the key lies in stretching the fascia between the limbs, feeling the direction of the large tendons in the human body, stretching the large tendons of the human body, and training the large tendons to be powerful. Naturally, you can master all the power."

"Does the noble lady also understand martial arts? Have you also practiced the True Dragon Great Frame?" Seeing that Xie Daoyun was approachable, Zhang Chen asked.

"Hehe, although I am not a member of the Yellow Sky Dao, I have also studied the techniques of the Yellow Sky Dao. Didn't the Yellow Sky Dao relax its control over martial arts techniques a few years ago? For me, it is not difficult to take a look at the martial arts techniques of the Yellow Sky Dao." Speaking of this, Xie Lingyun said: "I heard a few years ago that the True Dragon Great Frame of the Yellow Sky Dao is wonderful. If it can be combined with the flesh and blood of a dragon, it will have incredible effects and can refine a method called Qi and Blood. So I borrowed the True Dragon Great Frame to study it, and even slaughtered countless snakes, but unfortunately I couldn't verify it."

"It is said that in the ancient times, in the prosperous age of martial arts, some people entered the Dao through martial arts and took the blood of mysterious beasts to refine Qi and Blood. That Qi and Blood has incredible power, but unfortunately no one has ever seen it today," Xie Lingyun said.

Qi and Blood?

This was another new word for Zhang Chen.

Mysterious things are extremely rare in this world, let alone wild beasts with mysterious powers. The only wild beast involving mystery that he has seen so far is probably the dragon transformed from the ancestor of the Pingbian Royal Mansion.

"Eh, the dragon transformed from the ancestor of the Pingbian Royal Mansion…" Zhang Chen suddenly had a thought. If he could obtain the flesh and blood of the dragon, could he also refine Qi and Blood?

But unfortunately, even if he had the flesh and blood of the dragon, it would be useless, because he didn't have the formula to refine Qi and Blood.

"I wonder what the mystery of this Qi and Blood is?" Zhang Chen asked curiously.

"I don't know," Xie Lingyun said very simply: "The ancient books only mentioned a few words. There are no strange beasts in this world at all, so no one has ever successfully cultivated it. However, a dragon has appeared near the Yellow River. There may be hope in the future…"

Speaking of this, Xie Lingyun quickly stopped, as if she realized that she had said the wrong thing and leaked the news, and immediately stopped talking.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen didn't ask impolitely, but worked hard to practice martial arts and stretch his muscles.

Xie Lingyun guided Zhang Chen, and the two practiced for half an hour. Zhang Chen was sweating profusely and exhausted, and then stopped and looked at Xie Lingyun: "Thank you for your guidance, noble lady. Please come into the house for a chat."

Xie Lingyun didn't comment when she heard the words, nodded, and followed Zhang Chen into the house. Then Zhang Chen quickly wiped the stool again, even if there was no dust on the stool itself, he just wanted to show that attitude.

People live in this world to climb up, to make friends with useful people and forces. People who think they can roam the world alone are fools.

Especially before they have grown up, making more useful friends and fewer enemies is the key to sustainable development.

Xie Lingyun was also a wonderful person. Looking at Zhang Chen's movements, she was very satisfied with the little Taoist in front of her.

But as she looked Zhang Chen up and down, she didn't notice anything mysterious, and it had nothing to do with mystery. Looking at Zhang Chen, who was busy brewing tea, Xie Lingyun thought to herself: "Could it be that the golden light that burst out last night wasn't him? Was it that little girl?"

She remembered Cheng Yu, who was a very cute little girl, but after several meetings, she didn't think the other party had anything special about her.

However, Xie Lingyun was not in a hurry. She still had time to investigate, to slowly win people's hearts. Rather than directly exchanging interests, she preferred to make friends slowly.

Just as they were talking, Cheng Yu's loud voice came from outside the door: "Zhang Chen, come and drink the medicine. I have brewed a new decoction for you again."

Xiao Douding held the medicine bowl and walked into the house happily, but soon the smile on her face disappeared, because the female devil was sitting in the house at this time, sitting on her stool, looking at her with a smile on her face.

Xiao Douding was at a loss, and she didn't know where to put the hand holding the medicine bowl. She stood at the threshold, not knowing whether to go in or out.

"Greetings, noble person." Xiao Douding finally walked in with her head drooping, handed the decoction to Zhang Chen, and respectfully bowed to Xie Lingyun.

Xie Lingyun looked at Xiao Douding and saw that she was ordinary, although she was very cute, she didn't seem to have any mystery about her, and couldn't help but wonder:

"Or did I make a mistake last night? The person with mysterious power is not these two, but the mystery is hidden in this courtyard?"

Xie Lingyun secretly thought, and then said to Xiao Douding: "Don't be too polite, good boy, come over and let me see."

Cheng Yu looked at Xie Lingyun opening her arms. The big red robe was like a beast that could swallow her at any time. She could only squeeze out a smile, and her steps were stiff as she came to Xie Lingyun and was directly taken into her arms and played with.

Xie Lingyun's fingers traced over the little one's acupoints, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "She's just an ordinary person, with no mysterious energy on her body."

"These two are both ordinary people, completely devoid of any mysterious traces. With my Heavenly Demon Grand Dao's methods, even if the other party were a twelfth-order mystic, they wouldn't be able to hide from my perception at such close range. It seems these two are indeed ordinary people. Could it be that the mystery lies in some object in the courtyard? That would be difficult." Xie Lingyun muttered to herself. Once a mystery is hidden, it is filled with unpredictability, making it as difficult to find as ascending to heaven.

The mystery itself might be hidden in the void, or it might be hidden within an object, or it might even be a grain of sand you're stepping on.

"This is difficult!" Xie Lingyun secretly lamented in her heart.

"You're still drinking medicinal soup? Could it be that you have some illness?" Xie Lingyun's eyes were fixed on the medicinal soup in Zhang Chen's hand, her eyes full of curiosity, because she had just examined Zhang Chen, and the kid was perfectly fine. How could he be sick?

At this moment, the little one in Xie Lingyun's arms stiffened, his eyes darting around, and he secretly cried out in his heart: Not good!

His own words, 'That medicinal soup can cleanse the meridians and marrow, and help with the improvement and comprehension of martial arts,' this kind of nonsense can fool a newbie like Zhang Chen who doesn't understand the principles of martial arts, but if it's said to a young lady from a wealthy family like this noble girl, it will definitely be exposed immediately. At that time, he will definitely be beaten until his butt blooms by that disrespectful junior brother.

Most importantly, it has already been a month, and it is the critical period for his junior brother's treatment, so no mistakes can be allowed.

So, the little one took over the conversation and answered the noble girl's question for Zhang Chen: "His body is weak, so he drinks more medicinal soup to nourish his body, so as not to be hollowed out by martial arts."

While speaking, the little one winked at Zhang Chen.

When Zhang Chen saw the little one's actions, he thought that the little one was preventing his secret recipe from being leaked, so he nodded in cooperation and said: "That's right, my body is too weak. I didn't eat well and suffered from malnutrition since I was a child. Now that I'm practicing martial arts, I still need to drink some medicinal soup to nourish my body."

There's nothing wrong with this! But what kind of person is Xie Lingyun? She is a cultivator in the Object Manipulation realm, her spirit has already interfered with matter, and she has a subtle grasp of everything. She immediately noticed the flaws in the expressions of the two, but she didn't say much. Instead, she continued the conversation along with the two: "So that's how it is. If that's the case, you still need to drink more medicinal soup to nourish your body and replenish the deficiencies as soon as possible."

Then, Xie Lingyun didn't leave, but directly chatted with the two. Seeing that noon was gradually approaching, and the bell for lunch rang, Xie Lingyun was still talking non-stop with the two. The little one in Xie Lingyun's arms became a little anxious and kept winking at Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen glanced at the little one, and then listened to the bell in his ear, and immediately understood the little one's meaning. The little one was saying that it was almost too late for lunch, after all, the two of them had to rely on running to grab their lunch.

However, Zhang Chen looked at the noble girl who was talking non-stop and showed no intention of leaving, and felt extremely helpless in his heart.

This is a noble girl that the entire monastery has to offer up. Could he possibly abandon the noble girl and run to the cafeteria to grab food? If that got out, he would probably be beaten to death by the Law Enforcement Elder.

The two stood in the house anxiously, but they had no choice but to deal with Xie Lingyun.

At this time, Xie Lingyun smiled and hugged the little one, seemingly talking nonsense, but her eyes were scanning the entire courtyard, thinking about where the mystery was. It wasn't until a guard came and respectfully saluted Xie Lingyun: "Miss, it's time for lunch," that Xie Lingyun got up to say goodbye and leave.

Cheng Yu watched the large red robe leave like a ball of flame, and vigorously rubbed his face. He felt that his face had been pinched badly.

"Zhang Chen, what do you think these nobles eat for three meals a day?" The little one curiously asked, and then, without waiting for Zhang Chen to answer, he gave the answer: "It must be big bones, and all kinds of big bones, such as braised, steamed, spicy..."

The more the little one spoke, the more greedy he became, and finally his saliva flowed out.

Zhang Chen glanced at the little one and said unhappily: "Hurry up and go to the cafeteria to grab food, I'm afraid that if you don't go to grab food, you won't even be able to eat steamed buns."

Zhang Chen carried the little one on his back, and the little one carried the lunch box. Then, the two ran all the way to the cafeteria, but unfortunately, they were still late.

The porridge was gone, and each person could only get a steamed bun.

At this time, the little one was holding a steamed bun in his mouth, his pink face puffed up, and he bit off a piece of the steamed bun fiercely: "It's all that noble girl's fault. She's still hanging around when it's time for dinner, which can only make us eat steamed buns. Two meals a day, both steamed buns and thin porridge, who can stand it?"

Hearing this, Zhang Chen handed the steamed bun to the little one: "You eat it, I'm not hungry!"

He was really not hungry, after all, he had secretly eaten some snacks last night.

The little one looked at the steamed bun in Zhang Chen's hand and was very tempted, but in the end, he turned his head away: "Forget it, it's enough for me to eat one steamed bun. I'm still young and don't eat much. You're at the time when you're growing, so you can't be hungry, lest you don't grow up in the future... Wuwu... Wuwu... Wuwu."

Zhang Chen looked at the little one and directly stuffed the steamed bun into the little one's mouth: "You girl, you're still being polite with me."

"Zhang Chen, where is it polite to be so rude to your senior sister? You are rebellious! This time, I will spare you for the sake of the steamed bun. If there is a next time, I may break your legs."

The little one muttered dissatisfiedly while holding the steamed bun, running forward with a happy face.

The two returned to the house, and Zhang Chen sat cross-legged on the bed. At this time, he finally had time to continue exploring the mental secret realm.

Seeing Zhang Chen entering meditation, the little one gnawed on the steamed bun and drank cold water, his eyes fixed on Zhang Chen who was meditating, and suddenly felt that the steamed bun in his hand was not fragrant.

"Elder Zhang's medicine doesn't seem to be working? Why is junior brother still meditating and practicing qi, fantasizing about becoming an immortal?" The smile on the little one's face disappeared, and he turned and walked out of the dormitory, gnawing on the steamed bun as he walked towards Elder Zhang's herb room: "It must be that the illness I described to Elder Zhang last time was not accurate enough, so the medicine he prescribed doesn't seem to be working very well, it doesn't seem to have any effect."

Inside the thatched cottage,

Xie Lingyun stood in front of the medicine cabinet, grabbing medicinal herbs at random and putting them into the cloth bag at her waist.

Over the years, she has not only been looking for ways to fight against the Heavenly Demon, but also trying to decipher the method of making the 'Spirit Stabilizing Incense' that came into being with the birth of the Heavenly Demon.

That incense has the effect of strengthening the soul and clearing the mind, of course, it is indispensable for various medicinal materials.
