Chapter 46: Tempering (Seeking Recommendation Tickets!!)

  Li Huan was unaware that he had already attracted the attention of the Feng family, and at this time, he was immersed in the mysterious moves of "Gui Gu Xian Shu" and "Jiu Zhuan Qian Kun Jue". Moreover, Li Huan had discovered an astonishing thing - apart from being able to cultivate the moves in "Jiu Zhuan Qian Kun Jue", he could also use the moves in "Gui Gu Xian Shu" that required the unique internal energy of the Gui Gu Sect, and their power was not diminished at all, but rather stronger.

  After discovering this, Li Huan was shocked beyond measure. He had always thought that the unique techniques of the Gui Gu Valley in "Gui Gu's Strange Book" could never be used by others, but now Li Huan had broken this notion. How could he not be shocked? Immediately, he took out the "Huangdi Neijing" and tried to use its unique techniques. The result was once again shocking: he could also use the first two swords of the Xuan Yuan Nine Swords in the "Huangdi Neijing". The first two swords were the limit of what he could use, because the third sword required a high-level master's realm.

  After reaching this conclusion, Li Huan finally realized once again that the Nine Turns of Heaven and Earth technique he was cultivating was absolutely a peerless technique, and it was truly a divine technique that could seize the creation of heaven and earth. Even if you say it's unparalleled in the world, it's not an exaggeration at all.

  Moreover, Li Huan discovered that his comprehension ability was surprisingly good. Every time he comprehended a move, his mind became extremely clear. Basically, for every move, Li Huan only needed to take a glance, then slowly deduce it in his mind, and the next moment he could use it as if drawing an analogy from a gourd. After practicing several times, Li Huan could use it with ease, at least reaching the level of initial mastery. If others were to know about this, they would definitely exclaim that he was a freak.

  One night passed quietly, and Li Huan spent only one night learning the moves that can be used in the three (Nine Turns of the Dry Sky Technique, Ghost Valley's Strange Book, and Huangdi's Inner Classic) ultimate techniques. Of course, this is just being able to use them, but wanting to truly master them like an extension of his arm still has a long way to go.

  Now Li Huan is like mastering a theorem in geometry, but wanting to prove a problem or truly understanding and applying this theorem is still far away, so Li Huan can only be considered as having just caught a glimpse of the doorway, and is still far from achieving great success.

  Of course, this is already quite impressive for a person. A genius can't be described in such a way, only a freak or a monster can, it can be said that he is absolutely the greatest of all time. Now Li Huan's only shortcoming is actual combat experience, and only through continuous actual combat can he continuously improve and refine his skills, this is not something one person can accomplish alone, it requires someone to be a sparring partner. Immediately, Li Huan set his sights on Feng Tianxiang, although in terms of cultivation base, Li Huan was far higher than Feng Tianxiang, but in terms of understanding techniques, Li Huan still had a long way to go.

  After reacting, Li Huan found that the sky was slightly bright, around 6 o'clock. He immediately put things in order, washed up, and opened the door to head downstairs. When he arrived downstairs, Li Huan saw Feng Tianxiang wearing sportswear, about to go out. Hearing the sound from upstairs, Feng Tianxiang turned his head and instantly saw Li Huan.

  "Haozi, you're up too? So early?" Feng Tianxiang said with some surprise.

  "Hey, just got up, where are you going?" Li Huan suddenly spoke up.

  "In the morning, of course, we have to practice. Grandfather had already set a rule when we were very young that every day in the morning we must practice for two hours. In the past when we went to school, we had to get up very early. Now it's better, getting up at 6 o'clock is just right for practicing for two hours, it's much more comfortable." Feng Tianxiang said, and then raised an eyebrow and said: "How about it? Want to practice together? I heard you're very good, let's have a try?"

  "Haha, okay, I was thinking the same thing. You know that I'm just a beginner in martial arts, although my internal energy has reached second-rate level, but when it comes to techniques, I'm still a novice. I was actually planning to ask you to practice with me, now it's perfect, let's do it together! You have to accompany me well!" Li Huan said excitedly.

  "Huh, no way, you're not going to use me as a sparring partner, are you?" Feng Tianxiang said with an ominous premonition upon seeing Li Huan's appearance.

  "Haha, that's right, who else would I look for? Using you to try out my skills is just perfect, I was worried I wouldn't have a sparring partner." Li Huan said with a smile, facing Feng Tianxiang, Li Huan didn't show any of his usual coldness towards others.

  "Dizzy, Haozi, you're not plotting against me from the very beginning, are you? Honestly confess, have you been planning to take advantage of me all along? Ah, Haozi, I didn't expect you to come and scheme against me!" Feng Tianxiang said with a fierce tone, as if he was about to start fighting at any moment.

  "Haha." Li Huan chuckled after hearing that, Feng Tianxiang was right, Li Huan indeed had such plans. He moved to the Feng's house mainly because he saw Feng Tianxiang's strength, otherwise Li Huan wouldn't have come to live here. Then he said: "What? Scared?"

  Feng Tianxiang raised an eyebrow and said, "Hmph, I'm afraid of you? In terms of techniques, I will absolutely crush you. Since you're looking for trouble, don't blame me! Let's go to the mountain training grounds!" After speaking, he walked outside, and Li Huan quickly followed him.

  Ten minutes later, the two of them arrived at the top of the mountain. After arriving here, Li Huan finally saw clearly the environment around him. The entire mountaintop was actually a huge training ground, with an area comparable to that of a standard football field. At this time, many people wearing martial arts uniforms were already there, punching or sparring with each other.

  After seeing these people, Li Huan knew that they must be members of the Feng family. The two of them walked towards a rather inconspicuous corner, and along the way, everyone they met bowed respectfully to Feng Tianxiang, their eyes filled with reverence. As they walked, Feng Tianxiang introduced the situation here to Li Huan.

  After being introduced by Feng Tianxiang, Li Huan learned that most of these people were actually outer disciples of the Feng family, and the number of direct disciples was very small. Like Feng Tianxiang's grandfather, who only had two sons and one daughter. Of the two sons, one was Feng Tianxiang's father, and the other was his uncle. His uncle was a martial arts enthusiast who never married, with excellent qualifications, and was now at the peak of the first-class level. Feng Tianxiang's aunt also got married.

  The third generation of the Wind family has only two people, Feng Tianzhi and Feng Tianxiang. Both are exceptionally talented and have already broken through to the second-rate level at a young age, making them one of the best among their peers.

  "Come on, Li Hao, today I'll teach you a good lesson and let you taste the feeling of being abused. Of course, we can agree that we won't use internal energy, otherwise I wouldn't dare to fight with you." Feng Tianxiang said this after arriving at the location, but he had already made it clear beforehand that they couldn't use internal energy. After all, he wasn't a fool and knew that even if there were two of him, he still wouldn't be a match for Li Hao if he used his internal energy.

  "Alright, suit yourself. Anyway, my main goal is to practice the moves." Li Huan nodded indifferently and then picked up a training sword from beside him.

  Li Huan is currently focusing on three ultimate techniques. As for internal skills, it goes without saying that the "Nine Turns of the Universe" is the most superior divine technique. Although the "Nine Turns of the Universe" is also extremely powerful in terms of moves, Li Huan has not focused on this, but instead chose the "Xuanyuan Nine Swords" from the "Huangdi Neijing". This is known as the strongest attacking swordsmanship, and Li Huan likes it very much. Moreover, Li Huan discovered that many of the sword moves in it are borrowed from the "Nine Turns of the Universe", which clearly indicates that Xuanyuan Huangdi borrowed from the "Nine Turns of the Universe" when creating it.

  As for the final movement, Li Huan chose the lightness skill known as "Mystical Spirit and Immortal", which is said to be the most mysterious in Jianghu. This is a secret that Ghost Valley Sect does not pass on, extremely powerful, unpredictable, containing yin-yang, five elements, and eight trigrams.

  "Alright, today I'll come and experience the Ghost Valley's ultimate move, take it!" Feng Tianxiang said as soon as he saw Li Huan's appearance, and immediately charged towards him. The long sword in his hand brought out a series of illusions that pressed towards Li Huan's body. At the same time, the long sword in Feng Tianxiang's hand was constantly changing in mid-air, with one move containing three variations, which was absolutely something Li Huan couldn't execute at his current stage.

  Helpless, Li Huan had to activate the Phantom Illusion Technique to evade Feng Tianxiang's attack. The Phantom Illusion Technique indeed lived up to its reputation as the Ghost Valley Sect's ultimate body technique, and even without internal energy support, it was still terrifying. Li Huan's figure suddenly became elusive and unpredictable, rendering Feng Tianxiang's sword moves useless.

  At this time, Li Huan and Feng Tianxiang still didn't know that not far away, under a hidden tree, an old man was standing quietly, watching the battle between Feng Tianxiang and Li Huan. He stood naturally in place, but gave people a feeling of non-existence. If you couldn't see him with your own eyes, you would think you saw a ghost in broad daylight. If there were any masters present who saw the old man's appearance, they would surely exclaim, "A pre-heavenly expert!"

  That's right, this old man is a congenital master of the Wind family and the strongest congenital Xuan-level master in the Wind family. He is the pillar of the Wind family. Yesterday, after hearing the report from Feng Tianxiang's grandfather, the current head of the Wind family, the old man was also shocked. People at his level are deeply aware of the horror of what happened back then. In that great war, even the top masters fell in large numbers

  And as for someone like him who has fallen dozens of high-ranking officials, he naturally understands the severity of this matter, so he decides to take matters into his own hands and keep an eye on Li Huan, while also checking out Li Huan's abilities.

  When the two walked into the martial arts arena, the old man couldn't help but nod his head in approval after seeing the aura on Li Huan's body. Although his breath was a bit uneven, his inner energy was extremely pure and not at all artificially enhanced. He then began to watch the sparring between the two, and when he saw Feng Tianxiang's moves, a hint of praise flashed in his eyes. The old man was still very satisfied with the younger generation of his family, even though he had been out of touch with worldly affairs for nearly a hundred years. However, he still knew about the situation within his family and was aware that several talented individuals had emerged among the younger generation.

  As soon as he saw Li Huan using the Mystic Illusory Immortal, a hint of brilliance flashed in the old man's eyes. He had also seen the ultimate skill of the Ghost Valley Sect before. Seeing Li Huan's appearance, he suddenly discovered that Li Huan's understanding of the Mystic Illusory Immortal had already reached the level of initial insight into the mysteries. His heart was also extremely surprised, and in his opinion, it was already quite good for Li Huan to understand this point, lacking only the ability to skillfully use and flexibly change.
