Chapter 466

Hammer Dao Method?

Looking at the three characters "Hammer Dao Method" that had appeared in the cultivation technique column of the panel, Li Rui's eyes narrowed.

Following that.

A vast, unfamiliar stream of information surged into his mind like a tidal wave.

Very quickly.

Li Rui's expression became strange.

This Hammer Dao Method actually bore a striking resemblance to the Hammer Qi Method that Elder Tiekuang had previously taught him.

Or rather.

The Hammer Qi Method was originally just one chapter of the Hammer Dao Method!

"Senior Tie once said that the Hammer Qi Method was not created by him, but obtained by chance. Now it seems the origins of the Hammer Qi Method must be immense."

Li Rui speculated.

Perhaps it was precisely because he had obtained the Hammer Qi Method that the system rewarded him with the Hammer Dao Method.

The Hammer Dao Method, as the name implies.

It is the method of tempering the Great Dao, and it is an extremely extraordinary external cultivation technique.

Not bad.

This Hammer Dao Method is an extremely profound martial art.

He guessed it must have been created by some top-tier senior of external martial arts, but that senior was quite ingenious, intending to enter the body through the Dao, using fists to hammer the Dao, and the Dao to strengthen the body.

Not only does it have the use of helping one perceive the Great Dao, but once mastered, it can lead the Dao into martial arts; every palm and every fist carries the might of the Great Dao, and its killing power is terrifying.

The only drawback might be that it is the same as the Hammer Qi Method.

It is very difficult to practice.

Moreover, the threshold is extremely high; only martial artists above the Tongxuan realm can practice it.

But Li Rui possesses the Primordial Immortal Martial Dao Fetus, and the "Martial" character within it refers to supreme martial arts talent.

Naturally, it could not stump him.

Li Rui was overjoyed.

Ever since he began practicing immortal arts, although he had never neglected tempering his physical body, his martial arts practice had been somewhat sidelined, showing signs of falling behind his immortal arts.

It was not that he was not diligent enough.

It was just that he had not found a suitable, top-tier martial art, which was why he focused on practicing the Wan Gu Chang Qing Gong.

Now, the Hammer Dao Method could make up for this shortcoming of his.

Just as Li Rui was rejoicing.

Another line of small text appeared—

【Detected that the host has completed all intermediate plotlines of "Famous Throughout the Jianghu," obtaining one enhancement reward.】

【Enhancement in progress】

【.】

【Hammer Dao Method enhancement successful, obtained new martial art: True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art.】

The next instant.

A surge of martial arts mysteries, as turbulent as a wild wave, flooded into Li Rui's mind.

As the martial arts mysteries were absorbed, Li Rui's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

This True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art goes a step further than the Hammer Dao Method; it is a supreme method of Hammer Dao and slaughter.

Only then did Li Rui realize.

So, this Hammer Qi Method originated from the immortal cultivation world; to be precise, the Hammer Dao Method originated from a great power in the immortal cultivation world, and later, for unknown reasons, a remnant chapter of the True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art circulated to this world and became the Hammer Qi Method.

And then, over thousands of years, it gradually became lost, leaving only the meager thousand-word Hammer Qi Method.

Which Elder Tiekuang obtained by a twist of fate.

Li Rui's mouth curled up slightly.

Practicing this True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art can not only bring his martial arts to perfection but also greatly increase his killing power.

The two characters "Weapon-Nurturing."

The nourishment used is the myriad Daos of heaven and earth; this "weapon" is not that kind of weapon, but himself.

He never expected that this True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art not only has immense killing power but is also beneficial for perceiving the Dao rhyme of the myriad Daos of heaven and earth, which coincides with the Great Dao he has perceived.

According to what is said in the True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art.

The one who created this martial art was a powerful body cultivator who integrated the Dao into the physical body, relying on a pair of fists to make countless great cultivators bleed and regret; every move and every stance contained infinite Great Dao power.

It is somewhat similar to Li Rui's current integration into his own Immortal Court.

And what is even more unique is that the True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art can use the myriad Daos as fuel.

One portion of Dao is one portion of power.

Legend has it that when practiced to the highest depth, every strike is the power of the myriad Daos.

Invincible!

These are still too far away for Li Rui.

But he was already going to perceive the myriad Daos to integrate into his Immortal Court; with the True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art, his speed in perceiving the Immortal Court Dao rhyme could be greatly increased.

At most, one year would be enough.

Even faster than him nourishing the Qingxuan Great Dao and stepping into the Heavenly Phenomenon realm.

Not delayed in the slightest!

How could Li Rui not be happy?

True Martial Weapon-Nurturing Art plus Wan Gu Chang Qing Gong—that is truly what you call dual cultivation of law and body, supreme in both.

"Master?"

Seeing Li Rui's foot raised in the air, delaying to land, Yuan An called out in confusion.

Li Rui smiled: "It's nothing."

His right foot landed.

He strode toward the majestic city gate of the capital.

Previously, he had traveled by water; now, entering the city gate, he could better appreciate the power of the Yu Kingdom's imperial capital—it was covered in talismans, and the entire imperial capital was clearly a massive array.

Even Li Rui, a third-rank talisman master, could not see through it.

This was the foundation of the Yu Kingdom.

Besides his status as Earl Pingyuan and General Zhenshan, he was also the Right Vice Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate; although he was often away, he was a capital official.

When Li Rui presented his Censorate waist token.

The guards at the city gate did not dare to block him in the slightest, respectfully welcoming Li Rui and the others into the city.

As soon as he walked into the capital.

A fiery atmosphere rushed toward him; the streets were full of pedestrians, and the peddlers' cries reached his ears.

A scene of bustling prosperity, like oil cooking on a raging fire.

Just as Li Rui and the others walked into the capital, a man walked toward them.

"Senior Li, Elder Jiang has been waiting for a long time."

Seeing that middle-aged man appear.

The smile on Li Rui's face grew wider: "Little Han, it's been twenty years, hasn't it?"

The middle-aged man before him was none other than Han Qin.

Back then, it was he, Jiang Yan, and Zhu Yue who went to Qinghe, and Li Rui obtained the White Ape Blade-Wearing technique because of that.

Afterward.

The fates of the three were completely different.

Jiang Yan, as the daughter of Jiang Linxian, was naturally smooth sailing.

Zhu Yue, after leaving the Huaqing Sect, inherited the Zhu family business and became a wealthy man in Qinghe.

As for Han Qin.

After practicing to the sixth rank in the Huaqing Sect, he was requested by Jiang Linxian to come to the capital, and had been working for Jiang Linxian ever since.

Han Qin was now a fifty-year-old man.

It was just that because of martial arts practice, his appearance was not much different from back then.

Han Qin: "It has indeed been twenty years; Senior's demeanor is even better than before."

He was full of emotion.

He had known Li Rui for thirty years; back then, Li Rui was just a groom, but now, Li Rui had actually become a big figure in the Yu Kingdom.

The speed of his rise.

Was jaw-dropping.

If not for the fact that Li Rui was already a hundred years old, he would have thought he was a heaven-gifted prodigy who had suddenly appeared.

Han Qin led Li Rui and the others to a carriage that had been prepared long ago.

Traveling all the way.

Very quickly.

The carriage stopped in front of a residence in the East City that was quiet amidst the noise.

Han Qin led Li Rui and the others into the residence.

Very quickly, they saw Jiang Linxian sitting inside the room.

"Brother Li, long time no see."

Seeing Jiang Linxian, Li Rui also laughed: "Brother Jiang, your demeanor remains the same; you still look like a sword immortal."

Jiang Linxian waved his hand with a smile: "Brother Li's ability makes me bow down; I'm afraid that at the next martial arts evaluation, you will definitely surpass me by a large margin."

Li Rui was noncommittal.

Jiang Linxian's aptitude was extremely monstrous, and he had broken through to the third rank twenty years earlier than him; now he must have gone extremely far.

As for whether he was also like himself, with the Heavenly Phenomenon in sight, that was unknown.

The two reminisced for a while.

"I have already used my connections to ask the Daoist priests of the Xuanyuan Temple to send Yan'er to the immortal cultivation world; after that, I will have no more worries."

Jiang Linxian suddenly said.

Hearing this.

Li Rui was startled: "Brother Jiang, have you already found that person?"

Over these years, he had been secretly collecting information, helping Jiang Linxian find the person who killed his wife.

Jiang Linxian loved Jiang Yan extremely dearly.

Yet now, he was acting contrary to his usual behavior, wanting to send Jiang Yan to the immortal cultivation world to take risks.

Hence this speculation.

Jiang Linxian had no intention of hiding it: "To be precise, he found me."

Li Rui's expression narrowed.

He heard Jiang Linxian say gloomily: "I only know his Daoist name is Huang Longzi, and he has a very high status in the Northern Polar Immortal Sect; he has been in the lower realm for hundreds of years. The immortal calamity of our dynasty back then was stirred up by him, and the sudden death of the old Witch Emperor should also be related to him."

"He has already discovered that I am looking for him; it is too dangerous for Yan'er to continue staying in this world."

Li Rui said with a solemn expression: "Brother Jiang, this matter still needs careful consideration; do not be impulsive."

The person who could stir up an immortal calamity had strength that was beyond doubt.

Among the first rank, he was probably an extremely powerful existence.

With Jiang Linxian's current cultivation, the gap was too large; seeking revenge at this time was no different from a moth flying into a flame.

Jiang Linxian smiled: "Brother Li, rest assured, I am not that reckless; once Yan'er goes to the immortal cultivation world, I will enter a death-seclusion, and I will not leave the capital for the rest of my life until I enter the first rank."

Li Rui gave a hum.

What kind of person was Jiang Linxian? He did not need him to point things out, and being targeted by that Huang Longzi, the only place in this world that was safe for Jiang Linxian was the capital.

The two then chatted a lot more, until late at night.

Li Rui then stayed in Jiang Linxian's residence.

Early the next morning.

Li Rui walked out of the room.

He saw Eunuch Zheng waiting in front of the residence with several young eunuchs.

Seeing Li Rui come out.

Eunuch Zheng then smiled and spoke: "His Majesty has ordered this old servant to pick up Lord Li to enter the palace."

Li Rui cupped his fists politely: "Sorry to trouble you, Eunuch Zheng."

One look at Eunuch Zheng's appearance and he knew he had probably been waiting for quite a few hours.

But when Eunuch Zheng arrived, he had no intention of calling him at all, just waiting patiently.

There were too few people in the world who could make this great palace eunuch treat them like this.

Li Rui sat in the carriage.

Slowly driving toward the imperial capital.
