Name: Chen Wuji (Hidden Dragon Gate Master)

Lifespan: 30/86

Techniques: Dragon Gate Primordial Origin Technique (Ninth Layer), ..., Three Souls and Nine Spirits Illusory True Technique (Perfected)

Martial Arts: Three Yang Force (Perfected), ..., Heaven-Cutting Sword (Perfected), Star-Pointing Fist (Initiate), Six Harmonies Shield and Blade (Initiate), Footsteps of the Ascending Immortal (Proficient)

Talent: Sudden Inspiration

Disciples: Seven (expandable)

...

Three more martial arts techniques have been added!

Among them, Footsteps of the Ascending Immortal is a high-level lightness skill created by Chen Wuji, incorporating the characteristics of White Crane Dancing in the Sky, Lightning Steps, and Winding Snake Steps, along with some of his own ideas. The goal is to allow people to ascend to the heavens in the True Qi Realm.

It is not about gliding from high to low like when one sprouts wings at the True Qi Eighth Layer. Instead, it is like an immortal soaring freely through the air.

Of course, in order to achieve the state of flying immortals in the world, one must cultivate Footsteps of the Ascending Immortal to the state of perfection. One's own cultivation must also reach the True Qi Realm, Seventh Layer, with True Qi reserves and quality at the Late Stage, in order to lift oneself and fly freely in the air.

Eating flower petals, he forcibly cultivated his divine consciousness.

Chen Wuji had a sudden inspiration. Perhaps he could become a Ascending Heaven Realm expert ahead of time!

Ascending Heaven Realm is also known as True Origin Realm.

Compared to the True Qi Realm, the most significant characteristic of an early-stage Ascending Heaven Realm Martial Master, besides the transformation of True Qi into True Essence and the possession of divine consciousness, is the ability to ascend to the heavens.

Now, Chen Wuji has divine consciousness.

He has mastered his self-created Footsteps of the Ascending Immortal.

When creating this lightness skill, Chen Wuji deliberately incorporated the ability for practitioners in the Body Refining Realm to cultivate it as well.

And he has already passed it on to the six disciples who stayed in the valley.

With the help of his disciples, the mastery of Footsteps of the Ascending Immortal will be achieved quickly, within a few days.

Therefore, the only thing Chen Wuji lacks to "become" an Ascending Heaven Realm expert is the transformation of True Qi into True Essence.

However, his Primordial Origin True Qi has undergone several qualitative changes. Now, compared to True Essence, how much is still lacking in terms of power, even Chen Wuji himself cannot say for sure.

This gap can only be understood by fighting against a true Ascending Heaven Realm practitioner.

As for "Point Star Fist" and "Six Harmonies Shield Blade".

The former was obtained from Cai Shuifeng.

The title of "Uninjured Fist" is based on this martial art.

It can be cultivated in both the Body Refining Realm and the True Qi Realm.

After Chen Wuji looked at it, he found that "Point Star Fist" is a typical martial art that is easy to learn but difficult to master.

Once the technique is mastered, its power is extremely strong.

Similarly, Chen Wuji also taught it to several disciples, allowing them to practice and see if it suits them.

"Six Harmonies Shield Blade" was obtained from the corpses of the He family members before.

Several disciples obtained many things from the He family members, including several secret manuals of martial arts.

But only "Six Harmonies Shield Blade" satisfied Chen Wuji.

From the name, it can be seen that this technique combines the use of a blade and a shield.

In practical use, it not only allows an individual to attack and defend simultaneously, but can also be used by multiple people to form a battle formation!

Such martial arts often originate from the military.

Every organized army has a combined combat technique.

When soldiers in the Body Refining Realm unite, the power they unleash can rival that of the True Qi Realm or even the Ascending Heaven Realm.

Even practitioners in the Ascending Heaven Realm have to avoid the sharpness of a formation consisting of tens of thousands of soldiers.

Therefore,

"Six Harmonies Shield Blade" is of great reference value to Chen Wuji.

When Duan Zhen returns, he will let his seven disciples try to combine their skills.

...

Martial arts can be assisted by disciples.

The deduction of techniques still needs to be done by Chen Wuji himself.

From the gains of "Black Fiend Mantra", Chen Wuji tried to extract certain characteristics and integrate them into the "Dragon Gate Primordial Origin Technique" to deduce the subsequent path of the technique.

As his thoughts collided and sparked,

"Boom!"

A loud noise came from outside the wooden house.

Chen Wuji stopped contemplating, listened to the sound for a moment, and smiled.

"They finally arrived."

Saying that, he stood up, opened the wooden door, and walked out.

Under the dim moonlight, the outermost wooden house had a large hole smashed into it, collapsing on one side.

On the mountain path not far away, a figure darted back and forth swiftly.

Tap~

Chen Wuji glanced at it, tiptoed, and lightly chased after.

Hoo!

Hoo~

The mountain wind blew, and the leaves rustled.

In a few flashes, Chen Wuji caught up with the figure and arrived at the entrance of the valley.

Within his field of vision, another figure appeared and joined together, running towards the outside of the mountain.

"Only two?"

Chen Wuji raised an eyebrow, not slowing down his speed.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Suddenly bursting forth, lightning shot out.

In less than two breaths, Chen Wuji caught up with the two fleeing individuals and slapped down with his palm in mid-air.

"Boom!" "Boom~"

The translucent palm prints, carrying a spiritual pressure that shook the soul, covered Qian Shuijia and Shen Shuihu.

The two were shocked and sprayed blood from their mouths. Palm prints appeared on their backs and shoulders, their bones shattered. They fell to the ground, kicking up dust.

"Plp~"

Blood flowed from the corner of Shen Shuihu's mouth. He stared wide-eyed at Chen Wuji, who was close at hand, and trembled as he spoke, "You... you're not at the True Qi Third Layer, let alone the Fourth Layer!"

"Did I ever say that I am at the Third Layer or Fourth Layer?"

Chen Wuji glanced at Shen Shuihu, ignored Qian Shuijia, who could only gasp for breath, and listened to the surrounding sounds.

"Hmm? Only you two?"

After listening for a moment, Chen Wuji was surprised and said, "Aren't you the 'Five Heroes of Honghu'? Where are the other two?"

Shen Shuihu remained silent, gasping for breath heavily, adjusting his breathing.

Qian Shuijia didn't move at all.

"You won't say?"

Chen Wuji's gaze shifted, and he chuckled, "You think that if you don't say anything, I won't know your plans? The other two, they went into the valley from the mountains on the east and west sides, right?"

"You two lured me out, and they dealt with my disciples."

"Heh, your plan is quite good, but unfortunately, going around the side is seeking death."

Whoosh!

Shen Shuihu suddenly looked up in panic and said, "What... what do you mean!?"

"What do I mean, you'll find out soon." Chen Wuji smiled lightly.

...

On the east side of Azure Ox Mountain.

Zeng Shuiyu's figure moved agilely through the treacherous mountain path.

There was no road on the entire mountain.

It was nighttime again, and Zeng Shuiyu had been concentrating since the foot of the mountain, striving to climb to the top.

She didn't rest much along the way.

Until she reached halfway up the mountain, she stopped in a slightly flat area to catch her breath.

Suddenly, a slight sound came from the left.

Zeng Shuiyu's heart skipped a beat. She turned around vigilantly and saw a tall figure swiftly pouncing towards her like lightning.

Whoosh!

Zeng Shuiyu decisively drew her sword and dodged to the side, at the same time thrusting her sword.

"Clang~"

Sparks flew.

The tall figure was stabbed by the sword, but it made no sound and showed no pause.

With a steel-like shell, sporadic sparks burst forth. A large, unpolished cleaver, carrying a terrifying gust of wind, swiftly slashed towards Zeng Shuiyu.

Fast!

The speed was too fast!

Zeng Shuiyu only had time to raise her hand and swing her sword to block, but her body had just started to dodge.

"Crack~"

Splurt!

Blood splattered.

The long sword in Zeng Shuiyu's hand broke into two pieces.

She herself was also split in half by the terrifying force.

In the moment her consciousness dissipated, a thought popped into Zeng Shuiyu's mind.

"This is not a human!"
