This kind of thought is quite normal.
It’s because Ding Ling felt sothing.
With just this bit of Inner Strength, he couldn’t harm a single hair on him.
If it really were the Inner Strength Value of a First-class Expert, it would definitely not have such an effect.
"It seems that the Inner Strength Value in the Martial World is sowhat greater than the value of the body’s Four-dinsional Attributes."
Ding Ling contemplated:
"A 98 point Inner Strength Value is only comparable to a third-rate expert. How much Inner Strength Value does a First-class Expert need?"
Ding Ling didn’t know.
This requires him to slowly explore.
But the growth of Inner Strength.
Still brought him much joy.
Because he knew that when the Vigorous Qi of the Breathing Technique fused with Inner Strength, it would unleash explosive effects.
Previously, he had only used a re 20 Inner Strength Value, combined with the Vigorous Qi of the Breathing Technique, to compete with Bai Wushuang’s Palm Force and achieve a stalemate.
And now 98 points of Inner Strength Value combined with the Vigorous Qi of the Breathing Technique would definitely unleash an even more ferocious and explosive effect.
Ding Ling tentatively exerted the Vigorous Qi of the Breathing Technique and all his Inner Strength Value.
Rumble!
A muffled thunder erupted in the void before the Vigorous Qi was even released, with thunderous sounds bursting and dissipating outwards.
Ding Ling was taken aback; he quickly dissipated the Vigorous Qi and was secretly delighted:
"I never thought that the fusion of the Vigorous Qi of the Breathing Technique with Inner Strength would produce chemical reaction-like magical effects. Incredible! It seems that as the Breathing Technique continues to increase and Inner Strength continues to rise in the future, this Vigorous Qi could create earth-shattering effects when unleashed."
Ding Ling was expectant.
He stepped out of the room and glanced at the sky.
It was sowhat dark.
It seed that quite so ti had passed.
Sure enough.
After taking just two steps, he saw Lin Pingzhi waiting at the side. Upon seeing Ding Ling, Lin Pingzhi’s spirits lifted, and his previously tired and slack expression was instantly banished, turning into excitent:
"Master!"
"Hmm. Where is Fei Bin?"
"He’s gone."
Lin Pingzhi appeared a bit dejected, as if he had been humiliated, and the whole person seed sowhat dejected and disheartened:
"He said he’d co back tomorrow to see Master. If Master continues to refuse guests, it would an deliberately belittling him, Fei Bin, and showing disrespect to the people from the Mount Songh Sect."
"Heh."
Ding Ling chuckled lightly. He didn’t ask Lin Pingzhi about the specifics, as he could tell that Lin Pingzhi must have been humiliated by Fei Bin. Ding Ling would, of course, settle this score with Fei Bin in ti:
"I’ll see him tomorrow. For now, let’s go have a al together. I can guide you a bit on martial arts where you’re unsure."
"Yes, Master!"
...
The next day.
Ding Ling sat at the chief seat in the branch hall’s living room.
Sitting to the right in the living room were two people.
One, broad-shouldered and robust, sat unmoving like a mountain, full of smiles, resembling a God of Wealth, was Fei Bin;
The other, slender and gloomy-faced, with a breezy deanor, was Lu Bai.
They were two of the Thirteen Grand Protectors of Mount Songh, both junior brothers of Zuo Lengchan.
After finishing the tea.
Fei Bin took the initiative to stand up and said:
"Ding Ling, I won’t waste words. I’ll get straight to the point."
He paused, seeing Ding Ling didn’t react at all, and continued:
"We ca this ti hoping to invite you to join the Mount Songh Sect."
"What’s in it for ?"
Ding Ling asked.
"Hmm?!"
Fei Bin was taken aback. He had expected Ding Ling might refuse, envisioned a big fight, prepared for a cold reception, and even imagined a pleasant collaboration... but he did not expect Ding Ling’s first words to be directly asking for benefits.
This caught him off guard.
But soon after.
He steadied himself and solemnly said:
"The benefits are countless, provided that Ding Ling, you can join us."
"I don’t want anything else. Just bring the Martial Arts Secret Manual from the Mount Songh Sect for to browse through."
"Oh?"
Fei Bin was skeptical:
"Just browse through it and then return it?"
"Correct."
Ding Ling said boldly:
"As long as you can do it. Everything is negotiable."
"This..."
Fei Bin hesitated for so ti and said:
"I can’t make this decision by myself. I need to discuss it thoroughly with my fellow brothers."
"Alright. I await your good news."
Ding Ling smiled mildly and said.
So ti later.
Fei Bin and Lu Bai both left.
They ca hurriedly.
They left even quicker.
Lin Pingzhi was sowhat stunned and whispered:
"Master, are we really going to join the Mount Songh Sect?"
"Who’s to say?"
Ding Ling’s eyes were deep, without any ripples:
"When the ti cos, you’ll naturally know."
...
Fei Bin and Lu Bai acted swiftly.
They left in the morning.
And returned in the afternoon.
With them ca over a dozen Secret Manuals.
They presented the Secret Manuals and said:
"Ding Ling, this is our heartfelt gesture and our most sincere offer. Are you certain you’ll join the Mount Songh Sect?"
"Once I finish browsing, I will give my reply."
Ding Ling stood with hands behind his back:
"Are you giving the manuals or not? One word."
"We’ll give them."
Fei Bin and Lu Bai exchanged glances, gritted their teeth, and decided to take a gamble.
They didn’t believe that anyone could morize all these Secret Manuals in such a short ti.
No matter how photographic a mory one might have, it couldn’t be that exaggerated.
These are Martial Arts Secret Manuals!
Moreover.
These Martial Arts Secret Manuals, being third-rate and second-rate manuals, are not the Mountain Guardian Secret Technique of the Mount Songh Sect and were initially intended to deceive and placate Ding Ling, so even if Ding Ling morized them, they wouldn’t lose much.
In their perspective.
Cultivating First-class Secret Manuals for decades only led to progressively slower progress in their skills, and in recent years, it had virtually co to a halt.
Cultivating Second-rate and Third-rate Secret Manuals?
That would be a waste of ti!
Even if these Secret Manuals were gifted to them, they wouldn’t cultivate them!
However.
What they didn’t know was.
Ding Ling precisely lacked Martial Arts Secret Manuals, and whether second-rate or third-rate, as long as they were Martial Arts Secret Manuals, he needed them.
He opened the first Secret Manual.
"Qianyuan Heart thod"
The na sounded illustrious.
Just seeing the na made Ding Ling’s spirits lift, and his eyes brighten a lot.
However, upon finishing it.
Ding Ling was utterly disappointed.
This Qianyuan Heart thod turned out to be just a third-rate Inner Power Heart thod Secret Manual, far inferior to the Middle Yuan Nine-section Skill.
Even so.
Ding Ling wasn’t discontented, and he gently closed his eyes.
Soon after.
A book materialized on the bookshelf of the library.
"Full Level Qianyuan Heart thod"
"Inner Power Value 10"
In the blink of an eye.
The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi surged forth, pouring into Ding Ling’s body, opening so minor ridians and a small portion of the occluded ridians in the Eight Extraordinary ridians.
Ding Ling moved on to the next Secret Manual.
"Wulei Heart thod"
Rustling!
He quickly finished browsing.
Another book materialized on the library’s bookshelf.
"Full Level Wulei Heart thod"
"Inner Power Value 50"
Ding Ling was pleasantly surprised to discover that the Wulei Heart thod was actually a second-rate Inner Power Heart thod.
The Inner Power Value could directly increase by 50.
Along with the previous accumulations.
The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, swiftly refined into Inner Power, directly broke through one of the Eight ridians.
Ding Ling’s breathing suddenly changed.
Becoming increasingly profound and boundless.
He started browsing the third Secret Manual.
