Chapter - 69 The (3) (2/2)
The next day, the two went to the second strange room, and practiced according to the markings left on the ceiling. It was much easier to learn than Quanzhen's skills, since the techniques were used to counter Wang Chongyang's and originated from her own kung fu. A few months passed, and the two had learned the external skills of the ”Jade Heart Manual”. Sometimes, Yang Guo would use Quanzhen Sword skills; Xiao Longnu would then use the Jade Sword skills to counter it. When Xiao Longnu used Quanzhen Sword techniques, he would use the Jade Sword techniques to neutralize it. The Jade Sword technique was indeed the Black Star (the neutralizing opposite) to Quanzhen's Sword techniques, every stance was designed to stop the attack of Quanzhen's Sword techniques, every step matched the other, every move restricted the opponent and predicted their next move, no matter what the user of Quanzhen Sword skills did, it could not break the confinement of the Jade Sword technique.
The external skills had now been learned; it was time to advance into learning the internal techniques. Quanzhen's internal energies were deep and profound, to invent a method to defeat Quanzhen's internal energies, how easy could that be?
Lin Chaoying's intelligence was unbeatable; she actually did find a way using unorthodox techniques. Xiao Longnu raised her head and looked at the symbols on the ceilings, she was deep in thought and didn't speak; she looked at it for days on end without saying a single word.
Yang Guo said, ”Gu Gu, is it hard to learn?”
Xiao Longnu said, ”I heard from master that the manual's internal energy requires two people to practice at the same time, but I know I will not be able to practice it with you.”
Yang Guo was shocked and quickly said, ”Why not?”
Xiao Longnu said, ”If you were a girl, then we could.”
Yang Guo said, ”What is the difference? Aren't a boy and girl the same?”
Xiao Longnu shook her head and said, ”No, not the same; look up at the ceiling, what kind of shapes are they?”
Yang Guo looked in the direction she pointed, and saw the ceiling was marked with countless forms of body shapes, there were about seventy or eighty of them, a closer look revealed that they were the shape of women, the bodies had lines going away from them. Yang Guo didn't understand and turned around to look at Xiao Longnu.
Xiao Longnu said, ”The manual states, when practicing the whole body will emit heat, a spacious and deserted place is required; the body will need to be free of clothes to practice, this will enable the heat to disperse immediately. There mustn't be any obstructions, otherwise it will return to the body; a small consequence will be a serious illness, at worst the body will be destroyed.”
