Chapter 526: Yan Baihu Seeks Techniques

Although 500,000 Experience Points is a lot, Zhou You gritted his teeth and was still able to bring it out.

Introducing the current income situation, the acquisition of Experience Points is no longer a matter of fighting alone like before.

The Daqian Martial Arts Hall under his name now has as many as a thousand disciples; every disciple or follower who calls him Hall Master or Master and has received his instruction must provide Experience Points when practicing the Double Body Tiger Form Fist.

The strength of one person is limited, but with so many people gathered together, the daily income of Experience Points has doubled to a very considerable level.

Conservatively estimated, the daily income of Experience Points ranges from several thousand to several tens of thousands.

If Experience Points could break through realms without limit, Zhou You could pat his chest and guarantee that he would charge toward the Martial Warrior realm next month.

It is a pity that the Fist Martial realm is extremely profound and involves every aspect; it cannot be broken through just by smashing it with Experience Points.

"Experience Points -500,000, activating Reverse Palm Martial Arts Hall."

As the panel prompted that the transaction was complete, Zhou You immediately looked at his palm and waved it toward the ground in front of him.

Swish—it was still the familiar area covered by the Palm Martial Arts Hall, but the difference was that Zhou You had now become the one receiving instruction.

Reversing roles—this is the greatest function of the Reverse Palm Martial Arts Hall.

Since it has been activated, it cannot be wasted...

"Senior Brother Zuo, come over and let's chat."

Seeing a figure in front of the door, Zhou You saw it was Zuo Shier and hurriedly called him over.

Within the Daqian Martial Arts Hall, Zuo Shier's status is very unique; although he is at the Blood Qi realm, he is one of Zhou You's old guard and also a shareholder of the Double Body Tiger Form Fist.

Although Zuo Shier has repeatedly and tactfully indicated that with Zhou You's strength and status, continuing to call him 'Senior Brother' is inappropriate, Zhou You still maintains this form of address.

As time passed, the disciples of the martial arts hall all knew of Zhou You's respect for Zuo Shier.

"Hmm, does the Hall Master have something to say?"

Zuo Shier walked up close; under normal circumstances, when Zhou You is practicing fist techniques alone, no one is allowed to disturb him unless he requests it himself, including the disciple Qi Qingdi.

"Just asking, how is Senior Brother Zuo's practice of the Double-Edged Blade going now?"

The Daqian Martial Arts Hall's current financial situation is good; the Hall Master's wife, Hua Youxing, has opened up channels for Secret Medicine, giving the disciples a great advantage in medicinal food progress, and the group of old-timers has also shared in quite a few benefits.

Zuo Shier takes medicine and practices fist techniques, progressing rapidly; he is now at the late stage of Blood Qi and is diligently practicing the weapon, the Double-Edged Blade.

The Double-Edged Blade is the unique weapon of the Two Hearts Fist, which is just right for Zuo Shier, who uses it as his foundation.

As soon as Zuo Shier heard Zhou You asking, he thought he had the intention to provide guidance, so he immediately told him everything in detail.

"Hmm!"

Zhou You listened to Zuo Shier's detailed description of the process of practicing the blade, with every gain, confusion, and bottleneck, etc., all described in minute detail.

If it were still the original Palm Martial Arts Hall, he would have to provide pointers based on his own knowledge at this time to correct Zuo Shier's practice method.

But now...

Zhou You listened to Zuo Shier's description, and countless thoughts surged in his mind; in a short moment, he had thoroughly grasped the blade-practicing insights that Zuo Shier had worked hard to master, and furthermore, he innovated and optimized them on this basis.

While it was partly because Zuo Shier's blade technique was still shallow, the fact that the reversed Palm Martial Arts Hall was so heaven-defying truly surprised him.

A small test of his skills, and the effect of the Reverse Palm Martial Arts Hall far exceeded expectations.

Zhou You could not wait to see how much potential he could gain from listening to a lecture in front of a Monarch.

Grandmaster Mark—this name sounds very cool just by looking at it!

"Hall Master Zhou is a successor of the Dayin Mountain Tiger Fist; why is the blade technique of the martial arts hall under your command so mediocre?"

A voice came over, and Zhou You's expression was calm, "Senior Brother Zuo, a guest has arrived; you should avoid them for a moment."

The voice came from the entrance of the martial arts hall several hundred meters away. Yan Baihu soon entered the martial arts hall and came before Zhou You, "Hall Master Zhou, excuse the intrusion; I did not intend to spy earlier."

"It doesn't matter; the blade techniques of Dayin Mountain are peerless in Beixuan, so it is normal to look down on my meager family assets."

Zuo Shier's Double-Edged Blade had not even made a name for itself in the small place of Gongliang City, so it is no wonder it was looked down upon.

Yan Baihu had long known Zhou You's background; his master, Wang Jianxiong, was from the Dayin Mountain Tiger Generals and later left the mountain to open a martial arts hall after being injured.

Wang Jianxiong had not learned any profound blade techniques, so naturally, he would not pass them on to a rebellious disciple who was not valued.

Yan Baihu had come to the door this time with a request and would not make the atmosphere too stiff.

"In fact, the blade techniques of my Dayin Mountain are connected to the fist techniques; one only needs to understand the key points of the practice and fighting methods, and it is not difficult to transform the fist into a blade and multiply the power."

He casually spoke of some knowledge of his sect's blade techniques to slightly ease the atmosphere.

In fact, even the most heaven-defying genius could not restore the essence of Dayin Mountain's blade techniques based on just a few words.

The difficulty of this is too great; it is equivalent to giving you the E=MC2 formula and telling you to build an atomic bomb.

Zhou You would bet that he would never know of the existence of the Palm Martial Arts Hall in his life.

Therefore, he accepted all of his earnest good intentions with a smile.

Within the range of the Reverse Palm Martial Arts Hall, Yan Baihu's oral account of Dayin Mountain blade technique knowledge was recognized as an act of imparting the Dao and teaching, so the accompanying blade technique mysteries, essence, and other derivatives were opened to Zhou You without reservation.

"Experience Points -100,000, Double-Edged Blade and Tiger Form Blade can be fused into Double-Pointed Tiger Blade Way (Lv30)."

The intricate moves and fighting methods poured into Zhou You's mind for a few moments; in an instant, he possessed the potential of a blade technique master.

The blade techniques of Dayin Mountain are truly extraordinary; the newly created Double-Pointed Tiger Blade Way even surpassed his stick technique, Random Strike, and the Tiger Head Hammer, leaping to become his strongest weapon technique.

This blade technique absorbs the essence of the Double-Edged Blade and the Tiger Form Blade, and is even more compatible with the Double Body Tiger Form Fist.

If it is displayed in the future, even if Yan Baihu sees it in person, he will think it was derived by Zhou You himself from his fist techniques.

As for stealing techniques or anything like that, there is simply no such thing.

"I have been instructed."

Zhou You's expression was solemn as he cupped his hands in a salute, his attitude extremely sincere.

Yan Baihu was taken aback; no matter how he looked at it, Zhou You's action seemed like a disciple thanking his master for his kindness.

He shook his head and cast this absurd thought to the back of his mind; the man was just being polite.

He himself was still clear that what he had casually said was just common knowledge of fist techniques and did not possess the possibility of practical application.

Yan Baihu, however, ignored the fact that the 'common knowledge' reached at the level of a fierce general is hardly simple stuff.

"Master Zhou, I have come to ask you about a matter."

"Oh, please speak."

Yan Baihu paused and said, "I heard you possess a Secret Technique that can allow a tiger thrall to leave the body, which is somewhat similar to the Tiger Thrall Substitute Technique of my Dayin Mountain..."

"Master Yan, to tell you the truth, this technique was passed down by my master; his kindness to a rebellious disciple like me is as high as a mountain!"

That old man Wang Jianxiong actually had such talent and perseverance to elevate a Secret Technique that mutually plunders blood, Qi, and Essence Energy to this level?

Yan Baihu felt there was nothing wrong with that; after all, in Dayin Mountain, even the lowest-level thrall generals could learn the Tiger Thrall Substitute Technique.

Back in the day, Wang Jianxiong fought his way from a thrall general to a tiger general, and later, when he was severely injured, it was also because he lost a duel against another tiger general, suffering great damage to his vitality after having most of his Essence Energy and blood plundered.

That he actually managed to study this technique to success after leaving the mountain could be considered an unexpected joy.
