Chapter 643 17: Gluttonous Law, Five-Organ Temple_3
Therefore, the Temple of Five Viscera was renamed as Taotie Technique.
Not eating just won't replenish enough.
However, Lady Jade Face has seen many secret techniques of the Daoist sects, and there is a method to remedy this point, though the cost is particularly high—it's to consume various heavenly materials and earthly treasures, not just drawing on the qi of heaven and earth, but extracting the essence of heaven and earth.
This time, she gained this fortune entirely by basking in the youth's glow.
Firstly, it's that the abbot doesn't covet, his heart is broad; secondly, these two great monks highly value the youth, which allowed Lady Jade Face to gain from listening in on the secret techniques.
Thinking deeper about it.
The abbot who doesn't covet may very well have the thought of using the youth's hand to complete the Taotie Technique, as anyone who can learn Wandering Immortals so quickly can truly be called a prodigy blessed by heaven.
At this moment, the youth respectfully rose and performed a salutation with folded hands to Master Bu Tan, saying, "I will repay today's kindness in the future."
This technique was listed separately on a page.
——"Taotie Technique (Temple of Five Viscera) (Incomplete) (Ancient Secret Technique - Divine) (Can attain Dao) (Can condense Divine Power)!"
(Greatly enhances the refinement of essence into qi!)
(Greatly strengthens physical attributes!)
(Slightly increases soul strength!)
This secret technique is much stronger than Tiger Fury Fist, although it strengthens the foundation and doesn't provide any combat techniques.
Monk Bu Jie never expected to have this fortune; he only knew his senior brother's cultivation was profound, but never knew how profound, usually only helping him cover meal costs. Only today did he realize his senior brother's cultivation is likely as high as three floors.
All three were comprehending the secret technique, while Monk Bu Tan indulged himself in eating and drinking.
He intends to leave today.
Since he can't catch up with the Virtuous Mother of the Daming Sect, he might as well go back to sleep, anyway, his relationship with the Buddhist sect is somewhat intricate, and the one who truly showed great kindness to him was an old monk who raised him.
The youth silently prepared some travel funds for Monk Bu Tan when he left.
The great monk picked it up, finding it quite heavy, but didn't mind, laughing heartily, taking a roasted fat duck, eating as he walked, and when passing by the rundown temple outside the city, he took out some broken silver to give to the beggars who shared food and beds with him these days.
His figure directly followed the stream, seemingly truly intending to go back to sleep.
"It shouldn't be difficult for Master Bu Tan to attain Dao in the future."
Lady Jade Face gazed at the great monk's silhouette, softly saying, "Young Master."
"There has been a recent martial arts oddity."
"Do you know about it?"
Upon hearing this, Duncan withdrew his gaze, and merely through eye contact, he guessed what Lady Jade Face was referring to, slowly saying, "Twelve Zodiac Spirits?"
Lady Jade Face nodded gently, as the youth had previously traveled with Lu Shanjun and surely speculated about this.
The Twelve Zodiac Animals.
Their origin predates the Daoist sects, likely beginning in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, forming a complete system during the Eastern Han Dynasty, and after Daoism converted them into Taoism, they became the twelve guardians of the Daoist sect.
Though the Daoist sect organized ranks for various immortals, some people do not acknowledge them.
Today's Daoist immortals mostly took form after the Eastern Han Dynasty, many deriving from the deities of ancient rituals.
"Chu Ci·Nine Songs·East Emperor Taiyi."
Beyond the Daoist sect, Huaxia's veneration of the Divine Spirit has a long history. Among the martial arts factions, there are some hidden and unseen sects, including one that Lady Jade Face has contacted, their leader is known as 'Great Commander,' corresponding to the "Great Commander" in Chu Ci's Nine Songs.
There are too many extraordinary individuals in the martial world, some of whom not even the Ten Halls of Yama in the Underworld acknowledge. Although Buddhism crossed eastward and became one of the Three Teachings, many remain unconvinced by their doctrine.
Moreover, although the Three Teachings are flourishing, they aren't the entirety of Huaxia civilization.
Duncan pondered what seemed deep in thought for a long time, before saying, "Do you believe?"
Lady Jade Face nodded gently.
When she saw the youth gazing over, she broke into a smile, enchanting the soul, and unbeknownst, beneath that moon-white palace dress, a fluffy fox tail seemed almost ready to emerge.
Yet all this seemed like an illusion, as if the moon-white palace dress was buoyed by True Qi.
She was probing, yet also revealing her true self, laying bare her heart and soul.
If she were to utilize the youth's 'great medicine' for a breakthrough, then she must commit both mind and body to him.
"Lady!"
At this moment, an urgent call came, a servant girl holding a pipa looked on anxiously, full of terror: "Something terrible happened."
"Sister Yin has been captured by the cannibal ghost!"
What?!
Upon hearing this, the two's expressions shifted slightly.
The Sister Yin she referred to was that plump woman with hips like the full moon, skin extraordinarily white, a poor soul rescued by Lady Jade Face who was the earliest to follow her in cultivating strange arts, adept in leg techniques, and her Qinggong was extraordinary, often dispatched to gather intel.
The cannibal ghost eyed her snow-white skin and plump figure and planned to take her as a side dish.
"Valley of Villains?"
Monk Bu Jie emerged at the sound, murderous expression: "Cannibal ghost appears, the killer ghost must be nearby."
"Those two, one kills, one eats."
"Both are heinous monsters."
The three flew out, the youth had learned Wandering Immortals, beginning to grasp its essence, his speed was slightly faster than Monk Bu Jie, as the servant girl dressed as Concubine pointed towards the south of the city, they swiftly dashed for rescue.
If they were slower, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Utilizing Metal and Water Method, the youth mastered Wandering Immortals, no weaker than top talents in the martial world, though when his form shifted, there was a slight stiffness, reflecting a lack of understanding of the true meaning of 'Wandering.'
The Western Barbarians, when among barbarians act like barbarians, within Huaxia act as Huaxia.
The youth, a mere savage.
The cannibal ghost looked at the Concubine, who seemed weak and wretched, as if lacking meat, then released her, focusing on capturing Sister Yin. This woman aimed to buy her companion time to escape by directly fleeing towards the woods south of the city, intending to draw away those from the Valley of Villains alone.
The appearance of the Valley of Villains' ferocious ghosts here indicates a high likelihood someone contacted them for assistance.
At the time, some disciples from the Sect of Joyful Reunion weren't thoroughly eliminated, and among them, someone suggested seeking help from the Valley of Villains.
The youth's eyes gathered blood fury, and the murderous aura around him startled Monk Bu Jie.
Recently, the murderous aura surrounding him had waned somewhat; now surged, it again made one feel as if facing Corpse Mountain and Blood Sea.
Blood fury filled his eyes, appearing as if he possessed dueller's eyes.
Monk Bu Jie couldn't help but think of a legendary figure, Military School's Great Grandmaster, gathering killing aura in perfection, Overlord of Western Chu, Xiang Yu!
