Chapter 41

His heaven-defying comprehension was also operating at full capacity at this moment.

As Zhou Zhou Botong recited, spiritual light kept rising in his mind.

It was as if a door to a brand-new martial arts realm was slowly opening for him.

This Nine Yin Manual was worthy of being a Daoist divine art that shook the world!

Its internal energy cultivation method was broad and profound, pointing directly to the origin of martial arts.

From refining essence into qi, to refining qi into spirit, and then to refining spirit into void.

The cultivation methods for every realm were explained in great detail, profound and subtle.

Its general outline was even more visionary, expounding the martial arts principles of yin and yang complementing each other, and hardness and softness being stored together.

Ning Chuan felt intoxicated as he listened.

He could even feel that Huang Shang, who created such a divine art.

His martial arts cultivation had probably already reached the legendary realm of an Earthly Immortal.

Or even higher!

Ning Chuan carefully remembered every word Zhou Zhou Botong recited.

Not daring to have the slightest omission.

A moment later.

Zhou Zhou Botong finally finished reciting all the content of the Nine Yin Manual he knew.

He let out a long breath, as if he had completed a very important thing.

And with the relaxation of his spirit.

The effect of the Heavenly Snake Pupil and Heavenly Snake Chant that Ning Chuan had applied to him also gradually weakened.

Zhou Zhou Botong's confused eyes gradually returned to clarity.

He looked around somewhat blankly.

And looked at Ning Chuan in front of him.

Seeming not to understand what he had just done.

Immediately, as if he suddenly remembered something.

He patted his head suddenly, and then showed an incomparably brilliant smile to Ning Chuan.

Calling out in surprise:

"Senior Brother!"

"Senior Brother, why are you here?!"

His eyes looking at Ning Chuan were full of affection, worship, and attachment.

Like a child who had found a long-lost relative.

Seeing this, Ning Chuan was slightly stunned.

Immediately, a bitter smile and a headache arose in his heart.

The mental hypnosis effect of this Heavenly Snake Pupil seemed... to be beyond his expectations.

It looked like Zhou Zhou Botong was deeply convinced of this fictional "Senior Brother" identity.

Moreover, this change in memory seemed to be permanent!

What should he do?

He couldn't always be this Old Urchin's "Senior Brother", right?

Ning Chuan felt somewhat helpless.

But since things had come to this, he could only take one step at a time.

He showed a "smile" that was as gentle as possible to Zhou Zhou Botong.

And said: "Junior Brother, I still have some things to deal with."

"I'll come find you to play in a few days."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhou Botong, although somewhat reluctant.

Still nodded obediently:

"Okay, Senior Brother! You must come see me early!"

"I'll wait for you here!"

Ning Chuan responded, and then did not stay any longer.

With a flicker, he quietly left the cave.

Leaving behind the Old Urchin Zhou Zhou Botong, who was still immersed in the joy of "reuniting with his Senior Brother". ===== CHAPTER 77 =====

Ning Chuan returned to the quiet courtyard arranged for him by Huang Rong.

At this moment, his mood was unprecedentedly happy and relaxed, like clouds parting to reveal the sun, clear and bright.

This "bet" with Zhou Zhou Botong, and the subsequent series of changes.

Made his harvest so rich that it far exceeded his initial expectations.

It was not just an improvement in strength, but a deeper understanding of the martial path.

From now on, he possessed the complete version of the Nine Yin Manual!

Whether it was the [General Outline], which expounded the principles of martial arts, yin and yang complementing each other, and hardness and softness being stored together, and was hailed as the general outline of all martial arts in the world.

Or the [First Volume], which recorded the orthodox internal alchemy cultivation method of the mysterious gate, from refining essence into qi to refining spirit into void, pointing directly to the origin of the Great Dao.

Or the [Second Volume], which recorded many exquisite and infinitely powerful martial arts moves.

All had been firmly kept in his mind and mastered by his heaven-defying comprehension.

This Daoist divine art was indeed worthy of its reputation; its power was broad and profound, far beyond ordinary martial arts.

It was not just those infinitely powerful martial arts moves that could allow the practitioner to run rampant in the Wu Lin and be invincible.

More importantly, it was the martial arts philosophy and cultivation concepts contained within it, that deep understanding of heaven and earth, nature, and the creation of yin and yang.

It had immeasurable inspiration and reference significance for him to create a true demon cultivation method later.

It could be said that the Nine Yin Manual opened a window for him to a higher level of cultivation realm.

And now, this complete Nine Yin Manual.

Could even lay a solid foundation for his Grandmaster path!

Allowing him to take fewer detours and reach a higher realm faster.

He could even draw inspiration from it to push the Black Water Mysterious Snake Art to a higher level.

For the next few days.

Ning Chuan stayed in his small courtyard, not stepping out.

He verified Huang Huang Yaoshi's grandmaster notes with the complete Nine Yin Manual.

Silently comprehending the mystery and essence within, trying to merge the two into one.

The general outline of the Nine Yin Manual was full of pearls of wisdom, containing the Great Dao, and expounding the fundamental laws of martial arts cultivation.

The internal energy cultivation method of the first volume, from refining essence into qi to refining qi into spirit, and then to refining spirit into void, progressed layer by layer, with infinite mystery, and every step had detailed cultivation methods and precautions.

Huang Huang Yaoshi's grandmaster notes detailed every step and key point from Innate Perfection to Core-Holding Grandmaster, as well as various application techniques of the Grandmaster realm and combat experience.

Combined, they allowed Ning Chuan's understanding of the martial path to be raised to a new height again, as if standing on the shoulders of giants, overlooking the entire martial arts world.

This day, early morning.

The morning sun rose, and the golden sunlight spilled into the courtyard through the gaps in the peach forest, peaceful and serene.

Ning Chuan coiled on a huge reef by the sea next to the courtyard.

This reef was his favorite place to cultivate on weekdays, with a wide view, and he could face the magnificent sea directly.

The morning light was just beginning to show, the sea breeze was blowing, carrying a faint salty and cool scent, blowing on his pitch-black scales.

He looked at the surging, boundless sea in the distance.

Watching the waves hit the reef again and again, stirring up thousands of piles of snow-white waves, making a deafening roar.

Feeling that endless, cyclical, and magnificent power, that vast artistic conception of devouring everything and nurturing everything.

In his heart, he gradually gained some enlightenment.

The sea accepts all rivers, and it is great because of its tolerance; it devours all things and turns them into its own use.

The rise and fall of the tide, the alternation of yin and yang, prosperity leads to decline, and decline leads to prosperity.

How similar was this to the principle of "reducing the surplus and supplementing the deficiency, the void overcomes the solid, the insufficient overcomes the surplus" in the Nine Yin Manual? ===== CHAPTER 78 =====
