Yun Chen said with a smile, ”Let's go to the courtyard. We need to study the map of the Nine Palace.” As he spoke, he went outside to find a tree branch and returned to the yard. He then drew a Nine Palace grid on the ground and filled in the numbers.
Chu Yuhan watched intently until he finished filling in the numbers. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the painting looked somewhat familiar.
Yun Chenyi looked up, ”Miss Chu, this is the Nine Palace Diagram. The mnemonic of the Nine Palace Diagram was: The Meaning of the Nine Palaces. The ability to use the Spirit Turtle. ”24 is for the shoulder, 68 is for the foot, 3 for the left, 7 for the right, and 9 for the one. They're all in the center.”
Chu Yuhan suddenly remembered that in the math class, the math teacher had told him about this map and he still had some memories of it. She said, ”Yunchen Yi, are these numbers the same as fifteen in total?”
Yun Chen nodded his head, ”Yes. However, you have only mentioned one of the most obvious features of the Nine Palace Map. ”Actually, the Nine Palace Map is rather mysterious. It has a close relationship with Luo Shu, as well as a lot of relationships with the heaven and earth …”
Chu Yuhan never thought that a sword art could be linked to so many things, his head started to hurt. She had always had a headache over these tiresome things. When he was reading, his math was not good, so when he heard Yun Chen mention the River Diagram or the Luo Book, it was the most mysterious thing in the future generations. She hurriedly interrupted Yun Chen's thoughts, ”Stop bullshitting, just tell me this Nine Palace Sword Technique.”
”Mm. Alright.” Yun Chen pointed at the map and said, ”In order to practice the Nine Palace Sword Technique, you must first remember this map. Look, Miss Chu, this Nine Palace Diagram consists of nine numbers and nine squares. Of the nine numbers, there are three and seven on the left and right, with four, nine, and two on the top and eight, one, and six on the bottom. ”
Chu Yuhan asked, ”What do these numbers have to do with the Nine Palace Sword Technique?”
Yun Chen said, ”I took a quick look just now and saw that the Nine Palace Sword Technique is divided into nine moves. Each move is placed in a completely different position than the position of the sword. This was because the Nine Palace Sword Technique was aimed at the enemy from their position 5, facing you from your position 1. This way, when you used the first move, you would naturally face each other face to face. If you want to use the second move, you have to jump to the position of 2. At that moment, the enemy's body is facing towards you. Of course, the direction of the attack is different from the first move. ”
Chu Yuhan said in bewilderment, ”So you're saying, standing in a position doesn't mean you can only use that move? In that case, if I meet someone who is familiar with your sword techniques, it would be futile to try to defend against this move. ”
Yun Chen laughed, ”Swords are dead, but humans are alive.” The enemy stands there, and you see him there unguarded, attack wherever he wants to, not necessarily in a position where you can walk around. ”The Nine Palace Diagram originally had endless variations, and according to the map, the ancients even derived many information regarding heaven and earth …”
With regards to the heaven and earth, that is too big of a proposition. Chu Yuhan hurriedly stopped Yun Chen Xin, ”I have no interest in the heaven and earth, nor the universe, so there is no need for you to speak any further. ”Since you understand the gist of it, you should study it carefully. After you understand it thoroughly, let's practice this sword technique again.”
Yun Chen nodded his head, ”The Nine Palace Atlas is an extensive and profound knowledge. Based on the sword techniques derived from the map, it should not be something that can be explained with just a few sentences. Lady Chu's words are very reasonable, and you really must understand it thoroughly before you can practice it, otherwise you will become a dog instead of a tiger. ”
Chu Yuhan didn't think that a random book would be related to something like the 'Nine Palaces' or 'Luo Book'. She had heard of this before, but she did not have a deep understanding of it. All she knew was that it had something to do with the fate of the world. Otherwise, she didn't bother to think about it. Fortunately, Yun Chen knew all this.
Since then, Chu Yuhan practiced the sword and the spiritual force every day.
