Chapter 83: Tiger Roar Bone Tempering Technique!
Yaoguang looked at the young man sitting on the rock wall over there.

Li Guanyi jumped down from above. Before he forged his body, he would never jump down from such a height. Even if a warrior had internal strength, jumping down like this would injure his bones, tendons and muscles. But after he forged his body, his internal energy was flowing and his physical strength surpassed that of a normal person. Nothing would happen if he jumped down from this height.

Li Guanyi saw the steamed buns that Yaoguang was baking.

He reached out and took it away, then sat cross-legged in front of the campfire, holding a bag in his hand, which contained various snacks. These were the types that Li Guanyi had seen Yaoguang eat the most. Yaoguang blinked and said in a calm voice, "I..."

Li Guanyi said: "The Stargazing School has simple food and clothing, right?"

"Then just think of it as me forcing you to eat it."

Yaoguang held the snack in her hands and knelt quietly in front of the campfire, taking small bites. After she finished one, she looked at Li Guanyi and said quietly, "You came to see me, do you need help with something?"

Li Guanyi said: "No."

"Although I have made a breakthrough, I plan to come and try my hand with General Xue, but I plan to come back in a few days."

"I just don't know why, but I suddenly thought of coming here today."

"Maybe the scenery is so nice today, I suddenly thought of you, so I came to find you."

Yaoguang looked at him.

Then thought about it.

I felt that my spell might have worked.

They are only a stargazing lineage, and one of the three secluded sects, and can get a glimpse of destiny, but they are also unable to determine how such a destiny can be achieved. Yaoguang carefully wrapped these snacks and placed them in a black jar to prevent them from being caught by insects.

He stood up, brushed the dust off his knees, and said in a calm voice, "You are going to the secret realm."

"Just please follow me."

Li Guanyi stepped forward and said, "You don't have to call me "you" every time."

"It's too foreign."

Yaoguang shook her head and said in a calm voice:

"The Donglu Stargazing School has some recorded rules, among which the three taboos that cannot be crossed are [Do not disturb the mortal world], [Do not bring disaster to the people], and [Do not use star spells to make profits], which is the name of the White Tiger Sect."

"This rule was left behind by the White Tiger Clan eight hundred years ago."

“And five hundred years ago, it was confirmed again.”

"Although I don't understand the reason, but since such smart people from previous generations stayed, maybe there is a reason."

Li Guanyi was puzzled: "Why?"

The silver-haired girl said, "I don't know."

"Teacher said that for the stargazing lineage, one must have a heart as quiet as the water in a stream, so that the starlight in the sky can be reflected. Eight hundred years ago, during the most important stargazing session of that generation, ripples appeared in the heart, which dispersed the starlight."

"Astrologers cannot see their own destiny. If their minds are disturbed, they will be wrong."

"And the price Yaoguang pays for being wrong is always heavy."

Li Guan laughed and shook his head in disbelief, "It's just a name and a title, how can it have such great power?"

Yaoguang turned and looked at him, thinking about it.

The silver-haired girl took a half step forward, then held Li Guanyi's hand. Her voice became soft, her eyes were like the spring breeze, and she said softly:
"Brother Guan?"

Li Guanyi's body froze.

Then Yaoguang took a half step back and withdrew her hand.

Her eyes were still as peaceful as the stars, and her beautiful face, which was not delicate and human-like, showed no expression. She nodded and wrote it down. Her voice was calm and ripple-free as she said, "Sure enough, it is just like the words Yaoguang left behind five hundred years ago."

"Such a title will be useful to the White Tiger Clan."

"Your heart was confused for a moment. Language has magical power. In ancient times, people believed that the soul that left the body could be called back by name, and all spells must be chanted. The name you addressed each other would be the initial connection."

"I will follow the ancient conventions to prevent past tragedies from happening again."

Yaoguang opened the way forward with starlight.

Li Guanyi exhaled and felt some sweat seeping out of his forehead. He muttered:
"Really? She's always quiet. I was shocked to hear her call me that."

As soon as Li Guanyi stepped into the water, Yaoguang used starlight to open a path, and they came to the secret realm again. As before, Yaoguang went to find the stargazing skills practiced by the predecessors of the stargazing school five hundred years ago, while Li Guanyi picked up the halberd and faced General Xue.

God General Xue challenged.

Li Guanyi responded with only one action.

He raised his middle finger.

General Xue raised the corner of his mouth, raised his halberd, and smashed it down hard at Li Guanyi. Li Guanyi responded with normal moves, but General Xue had much more experience than him, and Li Guanyi's halberd was created by this general, so he could not break his moves at all.

Finally, Li Guan took a deep breath and said, "Tell me, what's the point of me winning against you?! I don't care about that place, where the overlord hid his troops eight hundred years ago!"

General Xue raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't it good for you to practice with me?"

Li Guanyi had no way to refute.

Able to fight and compete with the world's number one general.

This is a temptation that no warrior can refuse.

Li Guanyi: "Isn't there anything more specific?"

General Xue laughed and said, "Yes, if you can defeat me, then you can tear down this secret realm."

Li Guanyi: "Did it get demolished?"

General Xue smiled slightly and said, "Yes, dismantle it and take it away."

"In your time, the world should be in turmoil, or perhaps it is already in chaos, but the final chaos has not yet completely erupted. This secret realm was established by Yaoguang, so as long as we allow you, you have found Yaoguang of this generation of Donglu Stargazing School."

"She can dismantle this secret realm and then brand it with the Jade Pivot."

"Anywhere, as long as the Jade Pivot is reassembled, this secret realm will reappear."

"Isn't it a benefit to have the world's best general give me advice?"

Li Guanyi said, "So, this secret realm is the third key to your so-called [Overlord's Secret Treasure], right? Even if there is another person with the fate of the White Tiger Sect who takes away your weapon, as long as he has not encountered Yaoguang, he will not be able to get the treasure in the secret treasure."

General Xue smiled slightly and said, "If I say no, will you believe me?"

He stretched his body and said calmly, "Come on."

"If you can hit me once, I will let you take this secret place away."

Li Guanyi said: "Even if I'm not from the Xue family?"

General Xue said: "The person Yaoguang recognized cannot be a bad person. Even if you are not from the Xue family, I will give you the opportunity and power to pacify the troubled times. Do you think you will owe my Xue family anything?"

"In troubled times, if descendants have no moral integrity and possess such power, it is not a good thing for the family or the world."

Li Guanyi said: "You really like gambling."

General Xue smiled and said, "The heavy bet spanning years is about world peace. This is not a gamble." He raised the halberd in his hand, paused, and then suddenly chopped it down. Li Guanyi exhaled a breath of foul air, and stood up again. The halberd in his hand and General Xue's weapon kept colliding.

General Xue raised his eyebrows, held the halberd in one hand to suppress Li Guanyi, and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, saying:
“This is what is called inheritance!”

Weapons collided, energy surged, and the roar of the white tiger almost resounded throughout the world.

Li Guanyi's hand holding the halberd suddenly loosened.

Then, turn your wrist slightly.

General Xue slightly locked his pupils, rotated his halberd slightly, pointed the crescent blade upwards, and burst out with condensed internal energy. Then, like the eye of a storm, it tore outwards. The internal energy exploded into a raging wave, which violently erupted in a rotating upward posture!

【Rolling Waves】!
The spiral energy that erupted in an instant was Li Guanyi's limit so far!
The weapon in General Xue's hand was rolled away.

Li Guanyi took a deep breath.

The divine power of [Jade Arm Divine Bow Technique] was urged again, and at this moment, a force that was no less powerful than the previous one burst out. Holding the halberd, the halberd's thorn was like a spear, and it was pushed forward heavily. The qi was connected, and it was as heavy as a mountain.

Then the mountain collapsed.

Rocks rolled down from great heights.

【Destroy the mountain】

Boom! ! ! ! With one move, he used [Rolling Waves] to break the defense and disarm the troops; and [Destroy the Mountain] to attack and defeat the enemy.

Two unique skills are connected at the same time.

This is Li Guanyi's strongest posture and move at the moment.

But at this moment, the weapon in General Xue's hand knocked slightly downwards, and Li Guanyi's Mountain Destroying Skill suddenly became more violent. It was because General Xue added strength to it, but it lost its original aim and stabbed in another direction, brushing past General Xue.

General Xue took advantage of the situation and leaped up, as gracefully as a flying crane.

The end of the halberd in his hand lightly tapped the boy's back.

Then it landed lightly behind Li Guanyi.

Li Guan made a domineering move and pushed out horizontally, smashing directly into the stone pillar that was transformed into a hug, breaking it directly in the middle. The pillar fell down with a loud bang, hit the ground, and turned into starlight. Li Guan took a deep breath, stood up, grasped the halberd, clamped the tail end with his arm and body, stabilized the weapon, and planned to turn around and sweep horizontally.

General Xue was already pointing at the back of his head.

Li Guanyi's movements suddenly stopped.

General Xue smiled and said, "Before the real fight, you pretended to lose once, then used your unique skills the second time to show your enemy your weakness, and then instantly attacked the enemy with all your strength. It's a cunning and fierce fighting method. How did you become so cunning?"

“I don’t know who taught me that.”

Li Guanyi let go of his weapon dejectedly and asked, "Besides you, who else?"

General Xue laughed.

He asked Li Guanyi to sit cross-legged there, then picked up a pen and wrote the word "正" between Li Guanyi's eyebrows, and said proudly: "I have added another stroke today."

Li Guanyi was not annoyed.

Today's second battle was just a pretense.

When the [Tiger Roaring Bone Tempering Technique] is refined and the power of the Dharmakaya can be used, the real victory or defeat will be decided. Li Guanyi sensed that the two moves of Rolling Waves and Destroying Mountains only rely on the physical body and weapons, and cannot fully unleash their power.

If we use the power of the White Tiger Guard to defeat the enemy and blend into the rolling waves.

If the power of the Red Dragon Burning the Mountain is mixed into the power of Destroying the Mountain.

How much will the power of these two moves increase when combined?
At that time, only by taking advantage of General Xue's carelessness could he be defeated.

Therefore, when you are capable, pretend to be incapable; when you are strong, pretend to be weak.

Li Guanyi suddenly felt that he could slowly understand the knowledge that he had only boasted about before, and then naturally apply it in his own battles and confrontations. After being defeated again today, Li Guanyi realized his own strength and left the secret realm with Yaoguang.

He looked at this secret realm, and finally at General Xue's smug smile, and couldn't help feeling annoyed.

He picked up a stone and threw it into the stream, splashing water, and said, "One day, I will definitely beat you!"

Yaoguang is quiet.

Li Guanyi was a little embarrassed and said:
"If you win, will you dismantle this secret realm?"

Yaoguang nodded.

Li Guanyi hesitated, his eyes slightly lowered, then he mustered up his courage and said solemnly: "This secret realm is said to be given to me. If you dismantle the secret realm..."

The silver-haired girl tilted her head, then understood the hidden meaning of Li Guan's words, and said in a calm voice: "I will abide by the agreement. No matter where you go, to the ends of the earth or in troubled times, I will accompany you."

"Recreate the secret realm for you."

Li Guanyi said: "The previous covenant didn't have this."

Yaoguang replied: "This is considered a new agreement."

"It's not an ancient covenant, it's a new agreement between you and me."

Somehow, Li Guanyi's mood suddenly improved. He stretched out his hand, his brows raised, and said:
"Then I will prepare a variety of delicacies for you, including lamb with chive sauce from the Northern Region, various dried fruits and snacks from the Western Region, fishmongers from further afield, and noodles from the Central Plains. The world is so big, I can assure you that you won't get tired of it!"

"Are you planning to go to such a faraway place?"

Yaoguang looked at the finger that Li Guanyi extended.

This is something that children in the Central Plains like to do, making pinky promises for the future.

They were still children who did not understand the ruthlessness of the world. They thought that their fingers were connected and there would be an unbroken promise for the rest of their lives. Li Guanyi had played with those children before and was so excited that he did not pay attention to these things. He made this gesture to someone who truly understood fate and wanted to take it back, feeling a little embarrassed.

"You also have this childish side."

Yaoguang thought about it, but still stretched out her finger and hooked it with the boy at the moment.

Put your fingers together.

"But since it's your invitation, I won't refuse."

…………

A few days later, among the children of those who had previously won military honors, one general's son committed suicide, and the others were all strictly controlled. Because of Yue Qianfeng's incident, the court suddenly began to strictly investigate what these noble children had done in the past.

Those things were not worth mentioning in the past, but before the Chen State Grand Sacrifice, everything became much more serious, and they were involved with Yue Qianfeng, so they were investigated thoroughly.

Upon hearing this, the court was furious.

Those sons of noble families were either sent into exile or beaten half to death, their martial arts skills were destroyed, and even their fathers were badly beaten. It was quite miserable. The two sons of military merit who survived were hung up and beaten half to death by their fathers when they returned.

Li Guanyi had not yet gone to the capital, but he had already been given the nickname Li Shaxing, which was the first reaction of the noble children.

This person is like a ferocious tiger and is not easy to deal with.

There are also those who are eager to try and intend to tease the tiger's whiskers.

Li Guanyi was puzzled and gained several more merits.

The merits provided to him by these noble military heroes were enough for him to write performance reports for a year.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the capital became more and more serious day by day.

Even the atmosphere in Guanyi City has changed a little.

There were many foreigners among the guests at the post station, the Chamber of Commerce was becoming more and more prosperous, and in the tavern, there were beauties from the Western Regions who came to the State of Chen following opportunities. The sound of Hu Xuanwu's footsteps matched perfectly with the sound of the piano from the Central Plains, and the literati and young knights got drunk when they saw the eyes of the beauties from the Western Regions.

In contrast, defenses became increasingly tight.

The number of martial artists in the martial arts world is increasing day by day.

The vortex of the Chen State Grand Sacrifice has finally begun to radiate and affect the nearest Guancheng.

Li Guanyi just practices breathing exercises every day.

He tried to adjust and control the White Tiger and Red Dragon statues to keep them in a balanced state, and not let their Qi collide with each other. This invisibly sharpened his own Qi, as if he was in a state of confrontation with a strong enemy at all times.

The Qi is becoming more and more condensed.

Less than a month before the grand sacrifice of the State of Chen, someone from the capital came to the Xue family on a fast horse.

When the palace sent news to the Xue family for the third time, Li Guanyi finally saw the old man who had a low alcohol tolerance and loved drinking but often got drunk in the old tavern he often visited.

Li Guanyi walked up, sat next to the old man, and ordered a pot of wine and a few dishes.

"Old Senior, how is it going?"

Siming glanced at him and said:

"What did you call me?"

Li Guanyi thought for a moment and said, "Old man?"

So the old man laughed out loud and pointed at Li Guan.

He tilted his head back and took a sip of wine, then said in high spirits:

"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"

Li Guanyi's spirit, which had been tense due to the approaching of the grand sacrifice, finally relaxed a little.

Sima Ming, return.

"Tiger Roar Bone Tempering Technique", the foundation of golden muscles, jade bones, dragon tendons and tiger marrow, is about to begin.
