Qiao Mu spent 400 years creating the Heavenly Demon Forging Body. The next 100 years were spent refining this forbidden technique of body forging.
Having the idea of using martial arts to unleash hidden potential was a sudden inspiration.
The basic principle was believing that martial arts forbidden techniques could bring out the human body’s hidden potential. So Qiao Mu reversed engineered the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method to develop a milder version of the forbidden technique, to slowly stimulate the human body and release its potential.
The most classic and well-known martial arts forbidden technique is the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method.
Apart from the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method, the other forbidden techniques each have their own focus. Besides the common explosive transformation of internal strength, they also have many different characteristics.
Like the "Bloodthirsty Skill" from Mr. Hai, Hai Wuya’s second son, known for temporarily enhancing eyesight and reaction speed.
The Red Moon Burning Blood Technique and Blood Sword Technique are martial arts from the Imperial Capital’s two spiritual refining paintings, the Blood Moon Chart. Qiao Mu usually pairs them together, using blood to strengthen swordsmanship and attack range.
Before mastering true strength, Qiao Mu used the Blood Sword Technique to push the limits of his internal strength and harm others from a distance.
So, forbidden martial arts techniques come in many varieties, each with its own focus and strengths.
In Qiao Mu’s vision, his "Heavenly Demon Forging Body" is not just a reverse interpretation of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method, but also includes elements of other forbidden techniques.
If the Heavenly Demon Forging Body obtained from reversing the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method can expand the meridians, then skills like the Bloodthirsty Skill and the Desperate Strategy can slightly enhance one’s reflexes.
"Each forbidden martial arts technique may seem self-destructive, but they can also be seen as keys to unlocking the human body’s potential."
"However, these keys are too rough and might end up damaging both the keyhole and the door altogether, unleashing the potential but at a cost of harming the person."
"My ‘Heavenly Demon Forging Body’ now shares some similarities with how internal strength martial artists toughen their bodies from the 9th to the 4th rank."
Qiao Mu pondered.
Internal strength martial artists toughen their five senses from the 9th to the 4th rank.
In his hands, the half of the "Human Path Sutra" could be considered as a powerful martial arts technique, but it is only a gradual accumulation of energy and blood.
But the current "Heavenly Demon Forging Body" can be seen as strengthening the body after reaching the 4th rank, opening doors to hidden potential within.
When the former improves energy and blood, naturally his body becomes stronger, with greater strength and faster speed, but that’s about it, just a little enhancement of basic attributes.
The latter is about unlocking the potential of the body step by step, including developing meridians and so on, the specific effects are still unknown. RÃNŐВĘ𝓢
"If the two can be combined, I wonder if it can be considered as a complete superb martial arts technique?"
Thinking about this, Qiao Mu suddenly felt the urge to return to Peach Blossom Villa.
Until now, he possessed a total of 9 martial arts forbidden techniques in his hands, with more than half obtained from the visitors of Peach Blossom Villa.
If he could acquire more martial arts forbidden techniques… or guide other visitors to think differently and try to deduce the forbidden techniques…
Three shoemakers make a great Zhuge Liang, not to mention Qiao Mu is not a Zhuge Liang either, just a talented martial artist.
Whenever someone comes up with a new idea or concept, Qiao Mu can work tirelessly over time and risk his life to develop these ideas into powerful martial arts skills.
"I really want to go back to the ancestral estate to spread the teachings…can’t wait to defeat those Nascent Soul Immortal with just one punch."
Qiao Mu believes that to advance quickly in martial arts, one must not cling to outdated techniques. Why hold onto the old-fashioned skills passed down by the ancestors when cultivators have already surpassed them?
He is not worried about his martial arts techniques being surpassed by any genius in the estate after they are leaked.
After all…he has spent five hundred years refining his unique martial arts skills, who else could catch up that quickly?
If pioneers like Hai Wuya take half a lifetime to make progress, laboriously cutting through the darkness of the mountains and forests.
Qiao Mu, on the other hand, is like laying train tracks while running on foot through rugged mountain paths, unstoppable and swift.
Not to mention catching up with Qiao Mu, can martial arts prodigies keep up with his pace of developing new martial arts skills?
If there were any exceptional geniuses who could keep pace…Qiao Mu would see it as a wonderful thing.
"I really want to return to the village to spread my teachings…" Qiao Mu buried himself in a sea of books, continuing to perfect his newly created martial art, "Heavenly Demon Forging Body".
………………….
At the peak of Black Mountain, above the clouds.
Witnessing a member of the Qiao family being killed by Martial Saint, their body quickly dried up.
Three Nascent Soul Immortals fell into a brief silence.
This scene reminded the elders of the recent "Disaster of Taotie" in the Southwest Province.
Finally, Immortal Yun He spoke first.
"What kind of monster is this so-called Martial Saint, to use such sinister magic?"
"Some time ago, many villages and towns in the Southwest Province were plagued by unknown monsters, leaving only bones behind, with hardly any flesh… Could it be the work of this Martial Saint monster?"
These Nascent Soul Immortals have lived for over a thousand years and have seen many things. They have witnessed creatures feasting on each other, but they have never seen the Martial Saint like the one who just killed Qiao Mu.
"I don’t care," Immortal Yun Hai said first.
"If these non-human demonic creatures team up, they might cause us some trouble," he added.
"But they are not united like us. They fight among themselves even before we can make a move," he continued.
"Let’s just watch and wait," Immortal Yun Hai said, looking down below.
The Martial Saint clearly had murderous intent towards the Mountain Mother.
Qiao Shuangpian can die, as both Martial Saint and Qiao Shuangpian are enemies of the Yunxiao Sect.
But not the Mountain Mother.
This kind of giant demon is extremely rare in the whole mountain range, they are not ordinary creatures like the descendants of Jingwei Divine Bird or Sky Piercing Water Spirit.
They will not sit by and watch Mountain Mother being killed.
These Nascent Soul Elders are not just leisurely watching the fight on the side.
……………………………..
On the mountainside.
Village Chief Dedication Brother and bandit Zhang Kui had already called out to many strong men who were still on the mountains, rallying the entire village to prepare to leave and escape.
Qiao Shuangpian has died in battle, and no one can stop Martial Saint from killing Mountain Mother now.
"Mr. Qiao has already died, what can we do?" Dedication Brother was at a loss.
"Can we really escape?"
For the past decades, the thousands of people who have secluded themselves in Black Mountain Village add up to tens of thousands in the entire village.
With so many people, even gathering quickly would be extremely difficult, let alone escaping from the pursuit of the Martial Saint.
"Don’t worry," spoke Wu Qizheng in a calm voice.
"There are no exceptional fighters in the village, so the Martial Saint probably won’t directly attack you," Wu Qizheng said, glancing up at the sky.
From Qiao Mu’s last words and actions, he guessed that there might be cultivators lurking nearby.
Wu Qizheng believed that the Martial Saint wouldn’t bother attacking ordinary people.
However, now that the village had become entangled in the conflict between the Martial Saint and the Immortal Gate Yunxiao Sect, it would be extremely challenging for ordinary people to survive such a storm.
Wu Qizheng kept his worries to himself, only looking up at the direction of the wind on the mountaintop.
"Perhaps you should be more concerned about your Madam Mountain Mother…" Wu Qizheng whispered softly.
"Oh?"
"Will Mountain Mother really die?"
Wu Qizheng just shook his head, "Do you think the Martial Saint would be a kind-hearted person?"
"How do you think he has made it through the past forty years?"
Over the past forty years, Martial Saint has destroyed the martial arts world, causing many prestigious sects to collapse. In these forty years, how many moral dilemmas has he faced? Difficult choices?
Expecting him to be kind-hearted is just a fairy tale.
On the distant mountain top, the jade woman still stood on the cliff side.
The ground in front of her rose and fell rapidly, the entire mountain top shaking violently, cracks forming under her feet, as if wanting to swallow up Martial Saint.
Under Mountain Mother’s control, the mountain seemed to become a living creature.
Martial Saint’s steps remained steady.
After killing Qiao Shuangpian, his wounds all over his body started to heal continuously, even his collapsed shoulder began to recover.
Rocks suddenly rose in front of him, so he raised his hand and punched the rocks; the ground beneath his feet turned into a swamp and swallowed him, but he jetted a stream of air from his back and soared into the air, moving closer step by step to Mountain Mother.
Giant rocks fell from the sky, piling up like a small mountain which engulfed Martial Saint completely, but in the next moment, a loud rumbling sound was heard as Martial Saint waved his fists and created a person-sized cavity on the pile of rocks behind him.
He moved like a giant elephant strolling through streams in the storm, undeterred by the rain and wind, his steps never faltering.
"Even if Wu Qizheng had guessed Martial Saint’s intentions and awakened Mountain Mother in advance, it seemed to be of no avail…" Wu Qizheng’s heart sank.
Although Mountain Mother was strong, facing an opponent like Martial Saint, she might just end up as a sitting duck.
The jade woman’s half body was stuck in the stone wall and couldn’t escape, so she could only manipulate the movement of the mountain to indirectly increase the distance between her and Martial Saint. But this could only delay, not help her escape.
After a long stalemate.
Eventually, even Mountain Mother seemed to give up, losing her will to fight.
The shaking ground began to calm down and return to peace.
Mountain Mother did not look at Martial Saint walking towards her, but instead gazed into the distance at Black Mountain Village halfway up the mountain, looking down at the confused villagers.
"Do you have any last words?" Martial Saint asked calmly.
Mountain Mother’s reaction was identical to Qiao Mu’s earlier one.
She ignored the close Martial Saint and looked towards the village in the distance, whispering:
"Silly children, run quickly."
Mountain Mother lightly snapped her fingers.
A dull sound came from underground, the ground below the village continuously shaking and rumbling.
This sudden shaking caused many villagers to lose their balance and fall to the ground, then looking around in fear.
"Earthquake? Is the mountain going to collapse?"
"Could this be the work of Madam Mountain Mother? What is she trying to do?"
Since the village was founded, it has been protected by Mountain Mother. Over the years, it has rarely experienced disasters such as earthquakes, landslides, or encounters with monsters in the surrounding mountains.
But on this particular day, for some unknown reason, the land beneath their feet seemed to be trembling as if alive.
Only Wu Qizheng felt a sudden shock in his heart.
With a single thought, he transformed into a giant eagle and soared into the sky, perching on top of a small building to look down below.
From above, he could clearly see that Black Mountain Village had turned into a large moving island. The surrounding soil and forests parted like water in front of a rock, creating a clear path for the village to flow downhill.
"Are you suggesting that this village, where thousands of people live, along with the land itself, should move towards the foot of the mountain?"
Wu Qizheng’s gaze towards Mountain Mother subtly changed.
Just like he didn’t trust Martial Saint, he also didn’t trust Mountain Mother who was a monster.
But now, he started to see Mountain Mother differently.
"Even though Mountain Mother is the spirit of this mountain, she is like a goddess, right?" Wu Qizheng’s eyes showed mixed feelings.
"This magical creature, born from the heaven and earth, was like a blank sheet of paper."
"The mountain people worship her as Madam Mountain Mother, so she became Madam Mountain Mother; this monster not only attracted the desires of humans, but also Qiao Shuangpian’s arrogant desires…"
Lust is just one of the desires among human desires.
Even though it’s a very strong desire, humans are not animals, and they don’t just think about desires all day long.
When Wu Qizheng looked at the jade woman in front of Martial Saint in the distance, he couldn’t help but think of the just deceased Qiao Shuangpian…
His thoughts quickly stopped when Martial Saint approached.
"Have you finished speaking your last words?"
Martial Saint had a blank expression on his face, he waved his big hand and his palm swelled up like before, reaching towards the jade woman on the mountain wall.
Just in the midst of this dazzling light of the electric stone.
Bright electric lights descended from the sky, thunder struck like rain, completely engulfing the tall figure of Martial Saint, leaving no trace behind.
Wu Qizheng’s eyes twitched slightly.
This scene was actually the same way he died back when he transformed into "Martial Saint" at the Nan Province Xuantian Sect temple.
Look up.
Sure enough, there were several elders from the Immortal Gate on the clouds above, looking down indifferently.
Immortal Yun He, who had just used the Thunder Method, looked down at Martial Saint engulfed by the lightning, finally showing a hint of relief on his face.
"These demons fought each other, saving us a lot of trouble."
"If these monsters worked together instead of fighting each other, it might be more challenging…"
But before the words were finished,
In the dazzling electric light, a calm voice suddenly sounded.
"Work together?"
"We blend with each other, this is truly seamless cooperation with no distinction between us."
In the dazzling thunder and lightning, the huge figure of the Martial Saint suddenly rushed out, stepping on the empty space and soaring into the sky.
