"Oh? 'The Complete Manual of the Hundred Soft Yin Blade'? It's actually a martial arts manual?" Qin Yan was pleasantly surprised.
As a powerful and prestigious family in Blue Sky City, standing for a thousand years, the Qin family possessed a vast collection of martial arts manuals... internal energy cultivation methods, martial arts secrets, everything imaginable.
However, due to family rules, Qin Yan's internal energy cultivation level had been stuck at the second level of the martial arts internal energy realm, unable to progress further. Therefore, he was not qualified to enter the academy to view and copy profound martial arts manuals, and could only dabble in the most basic and superficial martial arts.
At this moment, Qin Yan suddenly found a martial arts manual and became quite interested. He quickly opened the small yellow paper book in his hand and began to read it intently…
This small yellow paper book only had a few dozen pages, each page depicting a strange naked man and densely packed small characters explaining…
Each naked man on each page held a single-edged sword as thin as a cicada's wing in his mouth, while his body performed various incomprehensible and terrifying movements…
For example, standing on one leg like a golden rooster, raising his right leg above his head and hooking it behind his neck, his left hand grabbing his right ear and his right hand grabbing his left ear;
or spreading his legs apart, twisting his waist, bending his head down, and stretching his head between his legs, looking at his back;
or rotating his head to look at his buttocks behind him, supporting himself with one hand on the ground, raising and bending his legs and hooking them behind his head;
or doing a headstand, bending his legs sharply, his left big toe touching his right earlobe and his right big toe touching his left earlobe, his hands clasped together, and flipping them behind his back…
...
The more Qin Yan turned the pages, the more horrified he became... The naked men on each page were all different, increasingly bizarre and strange, with endless variations...
Upside down, sideways, legs extended to the neck, splits, bodies like wheels, like bows, various crossings...
Every movement involved twisted bones, tangled muscles, knotted ligaments, folded spines, and extreme neck rotations... Some even had their entire bodies folded, twisted, and contorted at unbelievable angles.
It was as if the human body was being treated as a rope, a wire, arbitrarily twisted and tangled.
Like a snake coiled, soft and boneless.
Ordinary people could never perform these movements; at best, their bones would break, their muscles and ligaments would tear, leaving them paralyzed and crippled; at worst, their internal organs would be shattered, their meridians and blood vessels would burst, resulting in an instant and gruesome death...
In addition, on each page of naked men, there were several thin red lines depicting the pathways of internal energy flowing through the meridians. Furthermore, there were descriptions of the length of breath and the corresponding peristalsis of the internal organs...
"This is a method for cultivating internal energy..." Qin Yan immediately realized, "That's it, so these people don't have clothes painted on their bodies to show their meridians..."
Upon closer inspection, Qin Yan discovered that the meridian pathways on these naked men were completely different from the meridian pathways of the internal energy cultivation methods he had previously practiced.
Moreover, to circulate internal energy according to the meridian pathways depicted on the naked men's bodies, one had to perform those dangerous and bizarre high-difficulty movements. Otherwise, the internal energy would deviate from the meridian pathways and not circulate properly... This could result in anything from a minor misalignment to a serious qi deviation or even death.
Cultivating internal energy requires absolute precision; not even the slightest mistake can be tolerated. The human body's meridians are intricate, intertwined, and mysterious; even the slightest error is unacceptable.
The latter half of the small yellow book contained sword techniques.
On the page, the naked man, who had been holding a single-edged sword in his mouth, now wielded it with incredible skill, slashing and hacking with uncanny precision, his swordsmanship as bizarre and precipitous as towering peaks…
Each strike came from an impossible angle, each a risky move unimaginable to ordinary people. Every strike was deadly, unpredictable and beyond human comprehension…
Each strike evolved from the strange and dangerous posture he had previously displayed.
Qin Yan felt his scalp tingle and his hair stand on end...
Imagine if he were to fight someone skilled in this sword technique; he would hardly be able to defend against a single blow and would die by the blade... Either beheaded, cut in half at the waist, or have his limbs severed...
"I never imagined that such a bizarre and monstrous sword technique existed in the world... But who could possibly master this technique? It's impossible!" Qin Yan gently closed the small yellow book. "Whose bones could be twisted like this? The spine is knotted like a rope, the muscles are twisted into a ball, and the head rotates several times... I'm afraid even geniuses like Qin Feng and Qin Shuang couldn't master this martial art. Instead, they would break their bones and become crippled..."
"Could it be that this martial art is only meant to torment and harm people?" Qin Yan shook his head slightly.
However, Qin Yan's physical body was incomparably strong, far surpassing that of ordinary Inner Qi Realm experts. A membrane had formed beneath his skin, granting him immense strength and a body that was both flexible and resilient, allowing him to use his limbs with complete agility…
Therefore, after much deliberation, Qin Yan couldn't resist the urge and finally opened the book, muttering to himself, "Perhaps, I should give it a try…"
"Now, my physique is robust; my muscles, bones, and spine can all twist and bend. Practicing some of the simpler movements in this little yellow book shouldn't be dangerous, and at worst, I won't become crippled…"
With this thought, Qin Yan opened the first page, placed it on the ground, and then, following the instructions, imitated the movements. Although he didn't have a knife in his mouth, he still supported himself with his left hand, his body parallel to the ground, and his legs hooked around his neck…
"Crack~ Crack~ Crack~~~"
As Qin Yan performed this movement, his entire body cracked and popped, his joints snapped, and his bones clashed like metal against metal… But thankfully, given Qin Yan's physical strength, completing this movement was relatively easy.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished the movement, Qin Yan felt a refreshing sensation throughout his body, his mind relaxed, his distracting thoughts vanished, his inner demons subdued, and his overall vitality returned to a state of ease and freedom.
This amazed Qin Yan.
Immediately, Qin Yan stared at the naked man's face on the first page of the small yellow book. As shown in the picture, Qin Yan's tongue slightly peeked out from the right corner of his mouth, his left eye was squinted while his right eye was wide open... In an instant, Qin Yan felt extremely comfortable, and his senses seemed to become sharper, able to slightly discern the direction of the wind flowing past his ears...
Then, following the meridian pathways in the naked man's body, Qin Yan activated a breath of internal energy in his dantian and followed the diagram. In a short while, wisps of heat rose in his dantian, and soon he felt warm all over, indescribably light and comfortable. Even the blood in his body warmed up, and his body felt light as if he were flying, or as if he had drunk a century-old vintage wine. He had a kind of intoxicating and exhilarating pleasure.
Gradually, the internal energy flowed through his meridians, surging and circulating throughout his limbs… Qin Yan's internal energy circulated faster and faster, completely unlike the slow and arduous cultivation he had experienced before, flowing like a mighty river… In an instant, the internal energy had circulated ten great cycles… With each cycle, the internal energy grew stronger, and every pore and acupoint on his body trembled and buzzed…
Later, Qin Yan felt a surge of spiritual energy rising and flowing through every part of his body, even his hair roots seemed to be filled with power… His body felt as if it were drinking nectar, an indescribable pleasure.
Black, foul-smelling impurities continuously sprayed out from his body.
Finally, the internal energy, like the confluence of countless oceans, returned entirely to Qin Yan's dantian.
Suddenly, a fist-sized energy bulge rose in Qin Yan's dantian. From within this energy bulge, the faint sounds of wind, thunder, and tides emanated, swirling around his waist.
The next moment, Qin Yan took a deep breath and then exhaled violently!
The air burst forth from Qin Yan's throat, producing a sound like a dragon's roar and a tiger's howl. The internal energy gathered in his dantian burst forth, transforming into a powerful gust of wind that swept in all directions.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The vase shattered; the calligraphy and paintings on the wall swayed precariously; the antiques on the rosewood table were blown away and smashed; the windows were blown wide open, creaking and rattling.
The room was suddenly a mess.
"I...I actually broke through the shackles, broke through the realm, and entered...entered the third level of the Inner Qi Realm!" Qin Yan jumped up, his eyes filled with surprise and joy.
Qin Yan had started cultivating martial arts internal energy at the age of five, and at sixteen years old, he had been stuck at the second level of the martial arts internal energy realm for four years, showing no signs of breakthrough. Therefore, in the Qin family mansion, he was regarded as a laughing stock, suffering cold stares and ridicule, and bringing shame to his father, Qin Tianpeng.
Today, he finally broke through the bottleneck, reaching the third level of the Inner Qi Realm… Years of inner demons finally vanquished; years of long-cherished wishes fulfilled in a single day…
Qin Yan stood quietly, a hidden light flashing in his eyes. His fists clenched, his body trembled slightly, and his eyes welled up with tears…
…
It was another summer night.
The night was as still as water.
In the night sky, a vast Milky Way stretched across the heavens, shimmering with mysterious light. In
the remote mountains outside Blue Sky City , on
a small, lush
hill, Qin Yan stood, performing unimaginable and terrifying movements. His robes billowed without wind, his muscles rippled, his bones cracked, his blood surged, his qi circulated, and his body temperature suddenly rose, as if a boiling heatwave was being forced out. Visible wisps of air rolled across his body.
Soon, Qin Yan skillfully completed a series of unconventional movements, with no energy to spare.
He stood motionless, like a crane atop a mountain, a powerful aura emanating from above his head, rising and swirling like a hurricane behind him, kicking up dust and sand.
Half a month had passed since Qin Yan began practicing the martial arts in the small yellow book.
He had completed the eighteen difficult movements described in the book.
During practice, some movements had sprained his muscles and bones, but the golden particles in his demonic bloodline dissolved, releasing immense vitality and life-giving energy that rapidly nourished and repaired his injuries, stimulating deeper potential and keeping him energetic and at his peak cultivation state…
Now, Qin Yan's inner energy cultivation had reached the fifth level!
Half a month of relentless, unbelievable, and monstrous movements, along with various strange and unpredictable meridian pathways, had propelled Qin Yan from the second level of the Inner Energy Realm to the fifth level!
Of course, his progress to this level is inextricably linked to his exceptionally strong and rapidly improving physical physique. The two complement each other perfectly…
and Qin Yan's pure physical strength is no longer a challenge to contend with a seventh-level Inner Qi Realm martial artist.
"Right now, I cannot contend with the four sons of the First Madam, Qin Feng and Qin Shuang, but if I were to face Qin Lei and Qin Yu, I would not be at a disadvantage… and I would even have a chance to defeat them…" Qin Yan was very clear about this.
Now, Qin Yan's internal organs and heartbeat have slowed down, but become much stronger, like an iron hammer, solid and powerful, vibrating through his bone marrow, as if playing a melody, producing strange sounds... His whole being is full of vitality, and his stamina is incredibly long...
His internal organs have a sense of expelling the old and taking in the new, constantly absorbing fresh air and expelling stale air, keeping them clean year-round, like green leaves washed by rain...
His sensory perception is also more than ten times stronger than before... Concentrating, he can hear the sounds of insects moving in the depths of the grass; he can hear the rustling of mosquitoes flapping their wings; when a fly flies by, he can clearly see the veins on its wings...
After stopping his cultivation, Qin Yan strode forward to an ancient tree that was about the size of a person's embrace.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Yan began to contort his entire body!
Using his spine as an axis, his limbs, bones, head, meridians, and internal organs... underwent a massive spiral!
He twisted and contorted every meridian, every blood vessel, every muscle, every bone, and every internal organ in his body in a vicious spiral!
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
A terrifying, teeth-grinding squeaking sound rang out... like a bowstring being pulled, a noose tightening, a winch tightening... The internal energy in his dantian, like steel wire, coiled around his body, twisting into a knot!
A beast-like power accumulated!
The next moment...
"Boom~~~~~~~~~~"
Qin Yan's body relaxed, and his body, having completed the full spiral, rebounded violently!
This rebound was like gunpowder exploding in a mountain, a flood bursting its banks, a crossbow bolt firing, or a catapult launching a giant projectile, unleashing a heart-wrenching sound...
Qin Yan crashed out like a whirlwind!
"Bang!!!"
An ancient tree, large enough for one person to hug, was snapped in half by the impact, the upper half flying several meters away, its branches and leaves rustling down!
After the impact, Qin Yan immediately sat cross-legged, regulating his breathing. His face was slightly pale, showing signs of severe exhaustion.
However, a satisfied smile appeared on Qin Yan's lips.
'Spiral Explosion'
was the most terrifying, dangerous, and difficult of the eighteen high-difficulty moves described in the yellow paper book. It was also the most aggressive and monstrous in terms of destructive power.
It involved completely tangling the body, strength, and internal energy into a spiral, then rebounding outwards to deliver a devastating blow to the opponent!
Currently, Qin Yan's physical limit was only one spiral rotation.
According to the description in the yellow paper book, those who had mastered this move throughout history, at a distance of tens of feet from a city wall, would intertwine their entire body and internal energy, spiraling a full hundred times before rebounding outwards to violently impact the city wall!
The human body moved like a whirlwind, a tsunami breaking through the sky, like a massive boulder, flying dozens of feet in the blink of an eye, like a human bomb, crashing into the city wall and creating a huge explosion. The thick, sturdy city wall, cast from a mixture of granite and molten iron, was directly blasted away and collapsed...
It was simply a human-shaped siege machine, conquering and seizing territory with unstoppable force.
"Now, even one spiral of my body is extremely difficult... a hundred spirals?" Qin Yan stuck out his tongue and gasped. "What an unbelievable realm that is! It's simply unimaginable... I don't dare to dream of such a realm yet... I can only take it one step at a time, cultivating steadily..."
After resting for a short while, Qin Yan stood up and stretched his limbs.
"I've mastered the first half of the yellow paper book; what I lack is refinement. But this can't be rushed; it can't be achieved overnight. It requires years of diligent and unremitting practice..." Qin Yan pondered for a moment, "From now on, I should start practicing the second half of the sword technique..."
"Tomorrow is the First Madam's birthday. She'll be hosting a banquet for prominent figures from some of the most powerful families in Blue Sky City, and many of her relatives will also be there to offer their congratulations..." Qin Yan's eyes flashed. "Right now, even some servants in the mansion are spreading rumors that the First Madam will take this opportunity to humiliate my father, and even publicly shame me in front of everyone... These rumors are probably not unfounded... But it doesn't matter, I, Qin Yan, am no pushover, letting them torment me..."
In the past month, Qin Yan has made significant progress in both physical strength and internal energy cultivation. Furthermore, the fusion of demonic bloodline with his own has gradually cultivated a somewhat arrogant demeanor. He no longer feels the same fear and apprehension towards the First Madam's lineage as before; instead, a restless desire stirs within him to avenge the ambush he suffered that night...
