Chapter 202:

Qiao Mu stopped outside the Taoist temple, waiting until he heard the sound of carving stone sculptures again in the courtyard before preparing to go inside.

He came as Qiao Ruosen to visit Earth Sword Immortal.

Earth Sword Immortal was a powerful martial artist from forty years ago. If Qiao Mu wanted to progress further, it would be great if he could benefit from him.

After all, Wudang is no longer existent. Even if there are still a few descendants of Wudang, it is unlikely that there would be anyone who can compare to Earth Sword Immortal.

Qiao Mu specializes in Long Life Fist and Wudang’s Pure Yang Wuji Skill. So, it doesn’t matter how Earth Sword Immortal’s private morality is, it doesn’t affect Qiao Mu’s benefits.

However, after taking only a few steps, a person walked towards him.

It is Lu Yanbei.

Lu Yanbei’s face looked quite desolate at the moment. It was obvious that he was not in a good mood. It took him a while to notice Qiao Mu walking towards him.

"Elder Lao, what are you doing here?" Lu Yanbei exclaimed in surprise.

Qiao Mu pondered for a moment and said:

"Mr. Lu…"

Considering his current status, it’s not appropriate to address him as ‘brother’ or ‘friend’, so it’s more fitting to call him ‘Mr. Lu’, which is different from how Qiao Mu used to act all-knowing in the past.

Qiao Mu said. Mr. Lu, there’s no need to listen to someone who has given up on themselves. A little spark can light up like a firefly in the darkness. There’s no need to wait for a torch.

"If everyone waits for a torch in the dark, there will never be a torch."

"Do your best, and knowing your place in the grand scheme of things is enough."

Lu Yanbei was puzzled:

"So, Elder Lao has already heard?"

He forced a slight smile, pondering over Qiao Mu’s words, feeling somewhat comforted.

In the final years of the dynasty, when the great building was about to collapse, who would dare to claim they could single-handedly save the situation and prevent the collapse of the building?

But whenever the dynasty was coming to an end, brave warriors would rise up, full of confidence that they could win. They believed that their efforts would surely lead to good results.

It’s just about doing what we can and accepting our fate.

So, the essence of this lonely city is a carefully crafted cage created by the Immortal Gate. It’s like a theme park for inhuman creatures to visit. But what can they really do?

Without the desire to resist, one would still spend their life to death in this cage, enduring the long nights.

Life is like this, death is like this, and future generations are also like this.

Lu Yanbei nodded farewell and left.

Qiao Mu, on the other hand, sorted out his thoughts and walked into the Taoist temple.

………..

As he walked into the courtyard of the Taoist temple, Qiao Mu saw Earth Sword Immortal standing there in deep thought, unaware of Qiao Mu’s arrival.

Earth Sword Immortal didn’t look back, he just kept holding the carving knife and continued carving.

This stone statue is still in its rough stage, barely showing a human shape, but the general outline is different from previous statues, not like a female figure.

Qiao Mu calmly looked at it for a while, suddenly recognizing something from the outline of the statue… This statue seems to resemble…

"Heaven didn’t create Qiao Shuangsen, yet he still shines throughout eternity."

Earth Sword Immortal’s eyes were filled with nostalgia. He poured the wine in the flask, drenching the soil in front of this blurry statue.

"It is difficult to revive the beauty of mountains and flowing water, and now my path is lonely," said Earth Sword Immortal slowly.

Hearing these words, Qiao Mu was a bit stunned.

Last night, he specifically didn’t attend the commemoration of the old comrades, but it seems he coincidentally ended up here?

However, at this moment, as he looked at the back of Earth Sword Immortal, he felt a mysterious intuition in his heart.

Qiao Mu, who is now on a spiritual journey, has a different intuition compared to before.



He feels that Earth Sword Immortal…is unfathomable? Is his strength greater than expected?

"Earth Sword Immortal said before that, after reaching the 2nd rank of the Spiritual Refining Period, the powerful mind can’t only sense one’s own body, but also radiate further into the surroundings."

It’s like how even though a person doesn’t have eyes on their back, sometimes they can have an intuitive sense of being watched from behind.

The strength of spiritual refining intuition surpasses the limitations of the five senses, enabling one to explore the surroundings further, similar to the so-called divine perception in the realm of immortals.

"According to Earth Sword Immortal’s previous words, even if he doesn’t leave this observatory, it would be difficult for any matter, big or small, in this city to escape his notice…"

So here comes the question.

As the previous leader of martial arts, Earth Sword Immortal, wouldn’t he notice Qiao Mu approaching this observatory?

At this moment, he suddenly opens up to his older brother Lu Yanbei, maybe on purpose.

The words he said might not just be for Lu Yanbei to listen, but also for "Qiao Ruosen" to hear.

The words spoken at this moment seem to be the same.

As for Earth Sword Immortal’s plans and goals, they are still unknown.

Qiao Mu coughed lightly, "My son Qiao Shuangsen probably mentioned it before, the Iron Crotch Skill is actually a martial arts skill passed down from my Qiao family." seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Earth Sword Immortal suddenly turned around and looked at Qiao Mu with eyes full of gratitude:

"In the past, my eldest brother Qiao Shuangsen and I made a promise to each other. He taught me the spiritual refining martial arts, and I taught him the Iron Crotch Skill. I thought that after his death, there would be no more knowledge of this skill in the world, but it turns out I was wrong…"

"From now on, you will be my second brother."

"Please, teach me, second brother."

"So, you mean my son Qiao Shuangsen is your oldest brother, and I, Qiao Ruosen, am your second brother. What about Lu Yanbei?"

"Isn’t it simple to figure out? He is now my Third Brother," said Earth Sword Immortal straightforwardly.

"Is this a math problem?"

Earth Sword Immortal replied seriously, "My second brother’s words are incorrect."

"It’s all about the order of learning and specializing in different skills. I admire the outstanding talents of my oldest and second brother, so I am willing to be inferior."

"So, it’s not about the order of age. In the path of Iron Crotch, there is no superiority or inferiority, no older or younger. The way exists, and so does the teacher."

Qiao Mu fell into deep thought.

If what Earth Sword Immortal said was not referring to Iron Crotch Skill, then there doesn’t seem to be any problem with that statement…

"The Iron Crotch Skill is one of the martial arts passed down in my Qiao family," Qiao Mu spoke up.

"Actually, I have some other things…"

Speaking, Qiao Mu took out a handwritten book titled "Asshole Pointing Hand" from his pocket.

"Hiss," Earth Sword Immortal took a sharp breath.

"Is this Art of Lovemaking also passed down in your Qiao family?"

"…Actually, I obtained it from Martial Saint," Qiao Mu said straightforwardly.

What belongs to the Qiao family is the impressive martial arts, while what doesn’t is related to Martial Saint.

Speaking of this, he was actually preparing to give a precautionary injection.

After all, Qiao Shuangsen doesn’t know the Spiritual Refining Chapter of the Pure Yang Wuji Skill, but Qiao Ruosen has already embarked on the Spiritual Refining Method through the Pure Yang Wuji Skill.



Actually, it’s not difficult to explain. After the downfall of Wudang, the entire Pure Yang Wuji Skill fell into the hands of the Wuji Association.

Although the Wuji Association has a tight grip on the spiritual refining martial arts, given Qiao Ruosen’s strong skills, it is quite normal for him to obtain the Pure Yang Wuji Skill Spiritual Refining Chapter from the Wuji Association.

But Earth Sword Immortal didn’t even bother to ask, he seemed not to care whether Qiao Mu knew Pure Yang Wuji Skill, he just impatiently said,

"I understand, you mean I have to pay extra."

"So Big Brother learned the bargaining skills from Second Brother, they’re exactly the same… I wonder what Second Brother wants in exchange for this Iron Crotch Skill and Asshole Pointing Hand?"
