Chapter 618: Chapter 618
Once there was no hope.
But now with the "Evil Exorcism Sword Skill" and guidance from Yan Chuan, Fu Yunzhan finally sees the dawn.
"I must advance to the level of 800 points as soon as possible!"
"And I must act before Yin Huaidao breaks through and proves his Dao!"
The old Sect Leader of the Purple Beard Sect!
The Traveler Department ranks him tenth on the "Earthly List," and calls him the ’First Sword Technique West of Three Mountains.’ Such a figure would at least have 800 points in Heavenly Ladder City. There’s uncertainty whether he can achieve Innate Dao in his lifetime, maybe not, or perhaps at any moment.
Fu Yunzhan doesn’t dare gamble.
If Yin Huaidao manages to break through, it would become ten times harder for Fu Yunzhan to seek revenge!
"My time is running out!"
After seeking advice from Yan Chuan, Fu Yunzhan intends to bid farewell and continue deeper into ’Lu Ti Mountain’ to mine Essence Stones.
"No rush, Yun Zhan." Yan Chuan stops Fu Yunzhan and takes out a scroll of the secret manual from his bosom and hands it over——
Fu Yunzhan is startled, not understanding why Yan Chuan suddenly gives him a secret manual. He feels he is well-suited to the "Evil Exorcism Sword Skill" and before fully mastering it, he is not prepared to cultivate any other martial arts except for the Qinggong "Heaven and Earth Net Formation."
Fu Yunzhan opens the manual——
[To practice Divine Skill, one must cut off one’s genitals. If not, the power arises violently. The heat arises in the body, setting it ablaze henceforth. It rises from below, tumultuous and uncontrolled. Even if the heat ceases, the bodily harm continues. Self-mutilation results in self-generated True Qi. It flows to the Dantian without hindrance. The path of Qi cultivation is filled with suffering. Disdain suffering and let go to attain tranquility. After tranquility, the hands become nimble like picking flowers. Qi circulates through the Ren Meridian and the acupuncture points, gathering in the Dantian. Once Qi is formed, one feels reborn, with ineffable wonders.]
Fu Yunzhan wrinkles his brow.
[To practice Divine Skill, cut off one’s genitals.]
Isn’t this another "Evil Exorcism Sword Skill"?
But as he reads further, he realizes that although the "Kuihua Manual" and "Evil Exorcism Sword Skill" share the same origin, they diverge significantly, having major differences in content.
Among them, the "Evil Exorcism Sword Skill" focuses on swordsmanship, with internal energy as a supplement.
The "Kuihua Manual" is based on profound internal skills, with the upper part training Qi, the lower part training sword, and the auxiliary part training needles.
Fu Yunzhan’s brow gradually relaxes, and he starts to smile. With the foundation of the "Evil Exorcism Sword Skill," understanding the "Kuihua Manual," which shares a lineage, becomes much clearer.
Quickly skimming through, he recognizes it as a more advanced Divine Skill than the "Evil Exorcism Sword Skill."
With inner strength as the foundation, all are top-notch Absolute Skills.
"Once this skill is mastered, even a casual strike is like thunder. Any move, the enemy is caught off guard, already a killer move."
Geng Five Absolute Skills, Kuihua Manual, now has an owner.
Not only the "Kuihua Manual."
Yan Chuan is generous with his Absolute Skills, successively bestowing the "Dragon Elephant Wisdom" and the "Divine Light Scripture" respectively to Wang Zhengyi and Wang Ge.
"’Dragon Elephant Wisdom’ is divided into thirteen layers. Cultivating it yields fierce, unparalleled palm strength. Each layer mastered adds the power of one dragon and one elephant. Mastering ten layers results in the power of ten dragons and ten elephants."
Yan Chuan hands "Dragon Elephant Wisdom" to Wang Zhengyi.
"What a Divine Skill!"
Wang Zhengyi is overjoyed.
He already possesses the strength of an Alien Beast Avatar, and cultivating "Dragon Elephant Wisdom," which enhances Qi Power and palm strength, is akin to adding wings to a tiger.
One Force Overpowers Ten Skills!
With this Divine Skill, being unrivaled under heaven is just around the corner.
"The first layer of ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom’ is quite easy. Even the dullest learner, if taught, can master it in a year or two. The second layer is twice as deep as the first, requiring three to four years. The third layer is twice as deep as the second, needing seven to eight years. Each subsequent layer requires twice the time of the previous: the first layer takes two years, the second four years, the third eight years. ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom’ requires exponentially more time for each layer."
"This skill is gradual, with no reason why it can’t be mastered. If someone enjoys several thousand years of longevity, they will eventually reach the thirteenth layer with the power of ’Thirteen Dragons’ and ’Thirteen Elephants.’ But human life is limited, and Martial Artists seeking rapid progress often become impatient. If hastened, they often fall into the great danger of haste making waste, putting their life at risk."
Wang Zhengyi and Wang Ge, listening to Yan Chuan’s explanation of the "Dragon Elephant Wisdom," initially thought the skill seemed easy, but upon calculation, realizing that mastering the highest thirteenth layer could take thousands of years, they looked at each other in disbelief.
Wang Ge was shocked: "Can anyone truly master this skill?"
Even an Innate Grandmaster, fully exploiting potential, achieving great longevity, usually cannot live past 150 to 200 years.
Wang Zhengyi was also puzzled.
Yan Chuan explained: "Theoretically, ’Dragon Elephant Wisdom’ is , but exceptions can occur if highly compatible. For example, Brother Wang’s immense strength may lead to rapid progress when cultivating this skill. Of course, it might not be compatible either. Even if so, spending a few years to master a few layers provides benefits."
Whether "Dragon Elephant Wisdom" suits Wang Zhengyi, Yan Chuan does not know.
He developed this skill, partly for Wang Zhengyi, and also to enhance the strength of both the Tan Valley Army and the Hundred Flower Palace.
"’Dragon Elephant Wisdom’ is gradual, so training it layer by layer is like climbing stairs. Each step is the same height, with the second layer requiring twice as much time as the first, and so on."
This Divine Skill, deployed in the military, allows soldiers to train uniformly: two years for the first layer, four years for the second, eight years for the third.
Over fourteen years, mastering three layers of "Dragon Elephant Wisdom" will at least make them small masters, likely reaching Postnatal first or second level, breaking limits.
For Yan Chuan, Wang Ge, Wang Zhengyi, and others, three layers are obviously inadequate, unsatisfactory.
But for tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers, Postnatal and limit-breaking is a dream opportunity; in just fourteen years, they can steadily master limit-breaking, a great achievement.
Tan Valley Army first trains Five Fists, then performs ’Arhat Formation,’ and finally also practices "Dragon Elephant Wisdom."
Within a maximum of fourteen years, Yan Chuan will have a formidable army skilled in ’Xingyi Boxing’ and other Five Major Boxing styles, mastering both ’Little Arhat Formation’ and ’Great Arhat Formation.’ This limit-breaking army, with every 108 forming a ’Great Arhat Formation,’ or even ’Five Hundred Arhats Formation,’ or up to ’One Thousand and Eight Novice Monk Formation,’ whose might can withstand that?
Unchallenged under heaven, it is awaiting!
"Dragon Elephant Wisdom!"

Initially designed for Wang Zhengyi, its application in the Tan Valley Army seems more economical and rewarding.
When three thousand Tan Valley soldiers train, Yan Chuan can benefit from "Mutual Teaching and Learning," receiving feedback. Even if Wang Zhengyi is highly compatible with this Divine Skill, Yan Chuan could overtake him, utilizing communal wisdom to advance faster, cultivating "Dragon Elephant Wisdom" to the utmost thirteenth layer.
Unlike Fu Yunzhan’s "Kuihua Manual," which is suitable only for Fu Yunzhan, as others cannot bear the painful cost of cultivating it.
The other two Absolute Skills differ; both Wang Zhengyi’s "Dragon Elephant Wisdom" and Wang Ge’s "Divine Light Scripture" can benefit more people.
"Dragon Elephant Wisdom" needs no further mention, it will be Tan Valley Army’s unassailable foundation and reliance.
As for the "Divine Light Scripture"——
