Vol 1 Book 1: Chapter 12 (1/2)

The scripture library was a large hall, 30 by 20 meters The inside had few books, only about a thousand or so loosely placed on the shelves

Each of these books were es of Xiantian, all the way up to the Gold Core stage These secret ht after in the world of martial artists, but here a thousand of them were collected in one place

The other 55 people had already found their desired secretthem

Zhong Shan on the other hand, started to check each and everyone of the to end

All together there were 16soer print on the back cover; these were the best ones

Zhong Shan spent half of the day carefully going through all of them and finally picked out two manuals

Dayang Shengong (大阳神功, “great sun(太阴真经, “yin/lunar scripture”)

One was undoubtedly masculine and the other distinctly feenuine energy by the sixth level and after reaching the tenth level, one could breakthrough to the Gold Core stage

Dayang Shengong was for hi was for his double all the way back at the Zhong residence to practice

The two luan Manual or De Method

When he’s hungry, he would go back to his quarter to eat and return right away He didn’t have his double copy the manuals, but just memorized the Shan knew the i books Usually the first round of going over the book was the round that one had the most inspiration

After eight days Zhong Shan had completely memorized the contents of both manuals

Zhong Shan’s living quarter was inside one of the valleys, the surrounding area was quite pleasant There’s a waterfall, a deep pond underneath it, a small yard next to it, and a piece of land next to the yard The Kaiyang School provided hie amount of seeds

Zhong Shan felt it’s rather odd when he first saw all the seeds inside his house

Self-sufficient? There’s no servants at Kaiyang School, everyone had to take care of oneself If far was too troublesome, one could hunt ani School occupied a e, there were abundance of food sources However, there were fierce wild animals in the mountain, one had to be careful since no one would care if one died

It was totally safe around everyone’s living quarters because they were protected by s and fierce beasts

Certainly only those in the Xiantian stage needed to eat food When one reached the Gold Core stage, the energy from heaven and earth would replace normal food

Zhong Shan, though he found the situation odd, still spent soetable seeds, some were seeds of rice

He used several days to work on the land and divided it into a vegetable garden and a rice paddy Having reached Xiantian helped, he finished all the farm work after a few days

There were all kinds of tools in the house; obviously they were left behind by people who had lived there before

Taiyin Zhenjing was a distinctly feminine exercise and ca temporarily practiced by the double The double had just reached Xiantian not too long ago, therefore it’s just right for him to practice

Dayang Shengong was an undeniably muscular exercise and came with set of machete forms It worked even better if practiced around fire

Fire? Where could he get fire? He had to go into theShan felt most odd in his current situation, he was poor as the peasant If he’s still in his own country, he could have anything he would ever want Now he felt poorer than the most destitute peasant

But for the sake of reaching i Shan had to bear with it

He closed his eyes to start practicing the first level of Dayang Shengong Dayang Shengong used the genuine energy to refine the flesh, skin, tendons, and bones Zhong Shan sat there for half a day and by evening, he had barely crossed the threshold

He had finished all the food he had; he went to the pond to catch some fish and cooked for himself

He passed the night doing breathing exercise without slacking off The next day at daybreak, he took a machete that was in the house and some ropes to collect firewood

Once he left the valley and its protective for Shan didn’t go in very deep, he just cut doo big trees at the edge of the forest and used the rope to drag them back

He chopped the trees into sections outside his yard and put them into the woodshed

Afterwards, Zhong Shan practiced the machete forms

There were only twoOne was ‘Mountain Splitter’ (力劈天山, li pi tian shan) and the other was ‘Annihilating Slash’ (斩净杀绝, zhan jing sha jue) But just as any type of les of chopping and slashi+ng Everything had its weak point and to chop or slash, it’s not enough just using force, one had to find the weakest point and strike It was just like chopping wood; if he could find the right grain on the tree trunk to cut into, the result would be much more effective

Then he would continue to chop firewood Zhong Shan quickly found the best way to practice his machete was on wood
