"Why are you so trusting of with such secret matters, Senior?"
Ming Yue Wanderer revealed these past events and even his own origins so openly, which made Chen Tang feel sowhat surprised by his frankness and trust.
Ming Yue Wanderer smiled and said, "You were chosen by His Majesty and received his true teachings, also carrying the lightweight skill heritage of the greatest thief under heaven. Of course, I trust you."
"Moreover, I have observed your every action in Qianzhu City. So young, yet you possess a heroic spirit much like His Majesty in his pri."
Being praised to his face like this left Chen Tang a little embarrassed.
After all, when Ming Yue Wanderer asked him questions, he had not given any response.
Ming Yue Wanderer continued, "Actually, just due to your status as His Majesty’s successor, I should follow your orders. Or at least stay by your side to protect you, but..."
Chen Tang understood Ming Yue Wanderer’s difficulties.
In a certain sense, the Immortal Slayer Li Yuechen under Emperor Wu had already died.
The current Ming Yue Wanderer stayed on the Celestial Cauldron Continent only to repay kindness and seek revenge.
After a mont of reflection, Chen Tang said, "Senior, you’re being too modest. I have actually heard so news related to Emperor Wu."
"From what I know, Emperor Wu had a descendant who went into hiding after the fall of the Wu Dynasty. Last year, their identity was exposed, leading to a manhunt by the Qian Country Court. They were later rescued by a mysterious figure and vanished without a trace."
Chen Tang couldn’t ntion anything about Emperor Wu directly, but he could divulge a little information about others.
"Oh?"
Ming Yue Wanderer asked, "Could it be Prince Qin Xi?"
"Exactly."
Chen Tang nodded.
Ming Yue Wanderer continued, "What did this mysterious figure look like?"
"I do not know."
Chen Tang shook his head and said, "I was also being pursued at the ti, fleeing constantly; I only heard about it later."
This matter was indeed a mystery. Even when Chen Tang left the Capital City, he had not heard any news about Qin Xi and his wife, as if they had vanished into thin air, leaving no trace of life or death.
Ming Yue Wanderer frowned slightly, muttering to himself, "Could it be Qifu Qin?"
Chen Tang asked, "Is this another Immortal Slayer you ntioned, Senior?"
"Yes."
Ming Yue Wanderer nodded, "Among the four Immortal Slayers, the three of us who were chosen all had cultivated inner qi and bore various martial arts inheritances."
"Qifu Qin was the only one who inherited His Majesty’s horizontal training technique, cultivating the ’Dragon and Tiger Pill Scripture.’ His horizontal training skills were extrely pure, his physique robust and imnsely powerful, earning him the title ’Dragon Tiger Dominator.’"
After a pause, Ming Yue Wanderer seed a bit curious, and suddenly asked, "Since you have received His Majesty’s true teachings and chosen the path of horizontal body training and inner strength of the viscera, why haven’t you cultivated the ’Dragon and Tiger Pill Scripture’?"
"When I left the mountain, I hadn’t had the chance to learn yet..."
As he was about to speak, Chen Tang had a change of heart and swallowed his words.
Ming Yue Wanderer’s question was quite natural as the conversation had led to this point.
Chen Tang almost slipped and revealed too much.
Ming Yue Wanderer observed as Chen Tang opened his mouth but suddenly bit his tongue, deciding not to speak.
"You!"
Ming Yue Wanderer, seeing this, was both amused and exasperated, shaking his head helplessly and saying, "So young, yet so astute and cautious, your guard is excessively high."
"Heh heh."
Chen Tang let out a dry laugh and said, "Well, let’s take it as a complint from you, Senior."
Ah Li found their conversation interesting, and the originally calm look in her eyes revealed a slight smile.
She seed to find it improper and quickly returned to normal, lowering her head.
Ming Yue Wanderer said, "However, the inner strength technique you’re cultivating is indeed formidable, with trendous potential. I have examined your body; you are of the Fifth Grade Extre Realm, with an extraordinarily strong viscera, far surpassing others at the sa level."
Naturally.
In this world, there is probably no other creature with a viscera stronger than that of the East Sea Giant Demon.
"However,"
Ming Yue Wanderer shifted his tone, saying, "The horizontal training thod has so weaknesses. Without the support of inner qi, in terms of lightweight skill, it’s not possible to soar into the air or maneuver in mid-air, lacking many variations."
Cultivating inner qi is equivalent to having an additional force within the body.
If applied correctly, a master of inner qi can fully utilize it even while in mid-air to move horizontally or leap continuously.
Thus, it appears graceful and elegant.
Whereas Chen Tang relies solely on the explosive power of his legs and feet, straightforwardly using the ’Gecko Wall-Climbing Technique’ to scale walls and traverse the world...
The chubby elder had taught him the ’Fuyao Technique,’ and beyond the Wind Listening Technique, there were the Gale Technique, Wind Following Technique, and even One Step to the Clouds. Yet all these require the cultivation of inner qi to manifest their effects.
Ming Yue Wanderer pondered and said, "In terms of inner strength techniques, fist techniques, and sword skills, I cannot guide you much. But in lightweight skill, I can pass on the Hermit’s ’Floating Light and Shadow’ to you."
Chen Tang had received Emperor Wu’s true teachings, and even Ming Yue Wanderer, as a grandmaster, dared not offer guidance rashly, fearing to lead him astray.
"Floating Light and Shadow!"
Chen Tang’s eyes lit up.
The chubby elder had ntioned that Floating Light and Shadow, along with One Step to the Clouds, were among the Ten Great Lightweight Techniques under heaven.
And during his ti in Qianzhu City, when confronting the various Hermits, Chen Tang had witnessed the power of ’Floating Light and Shadow,’ with its countless afterimages causing confusion and making it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.
If not for the aid of the ’Divine Illumination,’ he wouldn’t have been able to resist it.
Chen Tang asked, "Can ’Floating Light and Shadow’ be cultivated without inner qi?"
"Yes."
Ming Yue Wanderer replied, "The Hermit’s martial arts techniques emphasize striking to kill in a single mont of explosive power. There are not many variations, and lightweight skill is the sa."
