Chapter 6: True Species

Since we have already intervened, we should at least reap some rewards

I simply do not wish to harm the innocent

Fang Xian cupped his hands in salute

The world is fraught with danger, shall I leave my name for you to take revenge?

Join the Liu family? Hehe... I have always been accustomed to a carefree and wandering life

This person is extraordinary; it is indeed somewhat regrettable that he has not been able to win over the family

Liu Yun let out a sigh and murmured

Fang Xian shook her head in gentle refusal, noticing the expressions of regret and jealousy on the faces of the surrounding guards, as if she had missed some extraordinary opportunity.

After a moment, Fang Xian sat opposite Liu Yun, yet did not touch the exquisite pastries on the table, and directly inquired: "I have traveled here and am not very familiar with the Jianghu of Yaofeng County. I hope the young lady can introduce it to me. Also, what kind of power is the Qingyu Sect that I just heard about? Where is its mountain gate located, and are there any formidable figures associated with it?"

Cultivating true energy? Master?

The tea pavilion instantly returned to silence

Fang Xian shook his head, realizing that he had inexplicably become enemies with the Qingyu Sect, leaving him speechless

The masked woman was taken aback for a moment, then immediately responded with a serious expression

At that moment, the masked woman stood up and bowed, saying, "The Liu family will surely repay this!"

"Does Miss Liu mean that there are other methods?" Fang Xian's eyes brightened

I see, thank you, Miss Liu, for your candid revelation

As long as one can speak, Liu Yun knows no bounds in her words, and her words are exhaustive! Huan'er, make additional arrangements and compensate the shopkeeper.

Thank you for informing me, I must take my leave now

Fang Xian felt that this time the gains were considerable, as he had gained some understanding of the martial arts world in this realm, no longer being like a blind person trying to grasp an elephant.

Junior Sister

Miss

My name is Fang Xian

"Practicing strength the day after tomorrow, cultivating energy from birth, one must cultivate true energy to be considered a master of innate skills! However, in the vastness of the martial world, true masters of innate skills are few and far between. Even if one is granted the 'true seed' and practices superior internal martial arts techniques, it does not guarantee the cultivation of true energy... As for independently cultivating true energy from the secret manuals, compared to achieving great external skills and transforming from the outside in to generate true energy, the chances are even slimmer!" Liu Yun lamented.

Indeed, one should not be overly assertive in times of trouble, yet when there is a sense of injustice in the heart, how should one express it

At this moment, Liu Yun unexpectedly said something that astonished everyone around: "If this brother does not mind, how about becoming a guest official of the Liu family? Liu Yun can guarantee to recommend you to compete for a genuine quota for the first-class * map * book."

Indeed, whether it is cultivating the internal school’s mental methods, visualizing and preserving the spirit, utilizing external practices to attain true cultivation, or refining a particular external skill to its peak, achieving great strength and forming true energy is possible... However, such occurrences are exceedingly rare and can only be attained by those with great willpower and extraordinary opportunities

Fang Xian felt somewhat puzzled

He is after all not a native of this world, his perspective is different, and he can discern abnormalities in things that seem commonplace to ordinary people: "Such 'true species', could there be future troubles?"

Liu Yun felt a stir in her heart, finding this person quite strange, seemingly unaware of the martial arts world. Nevertheless, she said: "If we speak of new talents, then the Eight Great Heroes and the Sixteen New Stars are all masters who have cultivated true energy! As for the older generation of masters, none surpass the fifteen renowned predecessors known as 'One Monk, One Daoist, One Madman, Two Dragons, Four Kings, and Six Sect Leaders'..."

There are no future troubles, but due to the nature of true energy, one can only cultivate the internal martial arts of the lineage of the transmitter or similar practices... Moreover, every true disciple must be carefully selected. Liu Yun said: "For example, among those individuals from the Qingyu Sect that we encountered today, it is evident that none of them are true disciples in the same vein as the texts."

The transmission of true energy is beneficial for the recipient, but it is a significant loss for the transmitter. Therefore, they generally do not take on too many disciples, and each one is treated like raising a son; losing one is more sorrowful than losing a son.

The more beautiful the woman, the more troubles and controversies surround her, and Fang is someone who fears trouble

Fang Xian's eyes moved: "Who, in this world, is the most renowned martial artist?"

Of course, as long as one joins the major sects and becomes a true disciple, one will naturally be granted the 'True Seed' by the elder in charge of imparting teachings. The 'True Seed' refers to the seed of true energy... When combined with the various sects' techniques, the possibility of cultivating true energy can greatly increase. However, this method significantly depletes the vitality of the imparting practitioner, which is why there are very few true disciples in each sect..." Liu Yun replied

Upon hearing this, Liu Yun felt a chill in her heart, yet she still smiled and said: "The Qingyu Sect is a second-rate sect from the neighboring 'Heishan Prefecture', its influence can only be considered average. The sect leader, Han Yunfeng, is not a particularly formidable character, so there is no need for you to be concerned. As for the forces in Yaofeng County City, there are several powerful factions such as the Wuxing Sect, the Fengyun Gang, the Changhe Sect, the Zhang Family, and the Leng Family, along with a few formidable rogue martial artists, such as Tianluo Xing, Bao Qian..."

Fang Xian did not hold back in using a pseudonym: "As for traveling together? Hehe... If the young lady's appearance is average, there might be room for discussion; otherwise, it is better for me to travel alone."

A group of disciples from the Qingyu Sect protected their junior sister, while the senior brother glared at Fang Xian and asked, "Who exactly are you, and why do you wish to trouble us?"

Fang Xian laughed heartily and left, while Huan Er, filled with anger, exclaimed: "This person is truly ... ... infuriating me!"

Fang Xian blinked and said: "Although it is difficult, there must be achievers, right?"

"Is it really good to be infused with 'true essence' by a highly skilled individual who has already mastered true energy? This true energy carries the imprint of another person's internal power, is that truly beneficial?"

Fang Xian's expression changed slightly, feeling that some of the rumors and speculations he had heard before seemed to be somewhat erroneous: "Is it really difficult to find the internal cultivation methods and cultivate true energy?"

The maid, Huan'er, was taken aback; such a coveted spot is sought after by countless martial artists, yet it was just given to this fellow

Liu Yun's enchanting gaze swept over Fang Xian, and with a light laugh, she said: "Brother, you are an external martial artist, perhaps unaware of the secrets of internal cultivation. True energy, true energy! To borrow the false to cultivate the true, how arduous it is! The human body is merely a mass of flesh and blood. While it is true that everyone possesses strength, true energy is formless and intangible... To achieve mastery is difficult! Difficult! Difficult!"

Fang Xian shook his head and chuckled, leaving his fellow disciples rolling their eyes in exasperation

I am even more curious about this mysterious 'Qi'

The day after tomorrow?" Fang Xian was taken aback.

Thank you for your assistance, young sir

He wants to obtain a manual on internal energy cultivation to study, but as for the true energy of others, he might as well forget it

Why? Liu Yun was taken aback

Good! Good! Good! The green mountains remain unchanged, and the clear waters flow on forever. We shall meet again!

Could you please tell me your name, and... if you are going to the county town, it would be nice to go together, allowing Liu Yun to extend her hospitality as a host

In that first world of mine without magic, I have not heard of anyone truly cultivating internal energy; however, there are indeed rumors of both bright and dark strength being passed down

He stared at the woman and then changed the subject: "However, if the young lady wishes to repay, I do have some doubts that I would like to ask the young lady to clarify."

The senior brother of the Qingyu Gate, believing that his martial arts skills were inferior to those of Fang Xian, and knowing that the Liu family was also assisting, realized that there was no way to achieve a favorable outcome today. He could only clasp his fist in salute and, along with his fellow brothers, quickly support his junior sister and leave.

It is truly a pity that, with your martial arts, you could easily dominate in the day after tomorrow; it is I who have been presumptuous.

This shortcut method feels somewhat off
