Chapter 541

On the White Jade Platform.

Su Chen listened quietly to the crowd's discussion, feeling the popularity points soaring, and was simply overjoyed in his heart.

He had gradually mastered the essence of casual talk.

That is telling stories!

Casual talk and storytelling are essentially the same thing.

It's just that one is real and the other is fictional.

If one can add twists and turns like storytelling on the basis of real characters, it is naturally easier to touch people's hearts.

For example, the love-hate relationship between Zhu Wushi and Gu Santong, the entanglement between the Night Emperor and the Day Empress, the causal reincarnation of Shen Lang and Bai Yujing...

This kind of conflict is most likely to cause topics, and while everyone discusses it, the popularity points naturally soar.

Until the discussion of the crowd in the hall gradually subsided, Su Chen put down his teacup and said calmly:

"Next, reviewing the next Martial Emperor powerhouse."

"Third place on the Martial Emperor Ranking, Zhang Sanfeng."

"Regarding this person, I presume everyone present is familiar with him."

"He is the pillar of the Great Ming Jianghu, the recognized number one person of the righteous path, Wudang's True Man Zhang."

"There are millions of Daoist practitioners, but very few can be called True Men; Zhang Sanfeng not only deserves it, but is also an outstanding one among them."

"But everyone knows that Zhang Sanfeng has lived for over 110 years, watching the ups and downs of the Jianghu for a hundred years, yet very few people understand his life."

"Zhang Sanfeng's name is Zhang Junbao, and he was once a disciple under the Shaolin sect of the Great Ming, studying under Jueyuan."

"His entire martial Dao foundation also originated from Shaolin, yet it is not orthodox Shaolin."

"As for the reason, listen to Su slowly."

As Su Chen's voice fell, the hall exploded immediately.

True Man Zhang actually came from Shaolin?

The Jianghu guests in the hall couldn't help but widen their eyes.

After all, Zhang Sanfeng is already over 110 years old.

For his youth a hundred years ago, who in the Jianghu still knows?

Everyone at most only knows that Zhang Sanfeng seems to have origins with the Shaolin sect, but didn't expect such a close relationship.

But Su Chen later said that Zhang Sanfeng's martial Dao foundation originated from Shaolin, but was not orthodox Shaolin.

This made everyone confused again.

For a time, everyone in the hall began to discuss it one after another.

On the White Jade Platform.

Su Chen sat upright, gently shaking his folding fan, ignoring the discussion of the crowd, and continued:

"First, talk about Jueyuan, the master of Zhang Junbao."

"This person was not some Shaolin high monk, but just an ordinary monk who carried water and firewood."

"He was a true practitioner of Buddhism, naturally compassionate, and only focused on studying various Buddhist scriptures."

"Most Shaolin monks were skilled in boxing, but he believed that swinging spears and fighting was not in accordance with the Buddhist will, nor was it what a gentleman should do."

"Therefore, every time he saw Shaolin monks practicing martial arts, he would always avoid them from afar, and he had never learned Shaolin internal arts."

"Even Jueyuan didn't know Shaolin martial arts, so naturally it was impossible to pass them on to Zhang Junbao."

"But the Shaolin monks didn't know that if it came to the depth of internal power, no one in the Shaolin sect was Jueyuan's match."

"Even Jueyuan himself didn't know that he had unknowingly broken through to the Martial Emperor realm."

Once these words were spoken, the hall exploded completely.

Zhang Sanfeng's master was actually a Martial Emperor realm powerhouse?

If it were only this, it wouldn't be enough to shock everyone to this extent.

But Su Chen happened to say that Jueyuan was just an ordinary monk who carried water and firewood, and had never practiced Shaolin martial arts.

Then where did his Martial Emperor-level internal power come from?

It wouldn't be that he read Buddhist scriptures and became a Martial Emperor like Huang Shang, would it?

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look at the high platform, waiting for Su Chen to solve their confusion.

On the White Jade Platform.

Su Chen smiled slightly, met the curious gazes of the crowd, and said slowly:

"The creation of the world is wonderful."

"Jueyuan never sought martial arts in his life, yet a peerless divine art fell from heaven upon him."

"This peerless divine art did not come from Shaolin, but by coincidence, it was hidden in the interlayer of the 'Lankavatara Sutra' of the Shaolin sect."

"This 'Lankavatara Sutra' was just one of many Buddhist scriptures; the Shaolin monks were all busy practicing martial arts and had no time to read this sutra at all."

"But Jueyuan was different; he seriously read the ordinary Buddhist scriptures in the Scripture Pavilion one by one, and finally discovered this peerless divine art hidden in the interlayer of the 'Lankavatara Sutra'."

"Jueyuan didn't care when he obtained the divine art, just thinking it was an ordinary method of self-cultivation and nourishing Qi, so he practiced accordingly."

"He didn't know that this peerless divine art was called the 'Nine Yang Divine Art,' which is the supreme chapter of internal power mental methods; there is no internal power masterpiece in the Jianghu that can surpass it."

"Jueyuan practiced with concentration, unhurriedly, which was exactly in line with the state of mind for practicing the 'Nine Yang Divine Art,' and thus his cultivation progressed rapidly."

"But his heart was simple, and he had never learned martial arts, so he didn't know at all that he possessed superb internal power."

"Even he himself was confused about how he had penetrated the Yin-Yang Heaven-Earth Bridge and broken through to the Martial Emperor realm, not knowing why."

As Su Chen's voice fell, the hall exploded again.

Everyone was shocked by the review of Jueyuan.

He didn't become a Martial Emperor by reading Buddhist scriptures as everyone imagined, but it was not much different.

Because he read a peerless divine art out of Buddhist scriptures. Nine Yang Divine Art!

The Jianghu crowd looked at each other; no one had ever heard the name of this martial art.

But there is no doubt that this is an incomparably terrifying technique.

Just look at Su Chen's evaluation of it: the supreme chapter of internal power mental methods, there is no internal power masterpiece in the Jianghu that can surpass it.

Being able to make Su Chen praise it so highly, it can be seen that it must be a top-tier internal power mental method.

And internal power mental methods are the most critical part for martial artists.

Everyone in the hall couldn't help but sigh.

It really is wonderful creation.

This Jueyuan had a low status and no intention of practicing martial arts, but instead achieved the supreme realm of the Great Ming Shaolin sect.

The third private room in the West District.

The Emei disciples all showed surprise.

The elite disciples of the Emei sect brought here by Abbess Miejue knew many sect secrets and inheritances.

When they heard the four words "Nine Yang Divine Art," they immediately felt very familiar.

Because their Emei sect has a volume of "Emei Nine Yang Technique," which is only one word different from the Nine Yang Divine Art.

Legend has it that this "Emei Nine Yang Technique" is a top-tier internal power mental method and one of the general outlines of Emei martial arts.

Within the Emei sect, very few disciples are qualified to inherit this technique.

So everyone had only heard of it.

Could it be that these two techniques are related?

"Sect Master, does our Emei sect's 'Nine Yang Technique' have any origins with this 'Nine Yang Divine Art'?"

Sun Xiuqing asked boldly.

The other disciples also looked at Abbess Miejue like curious babies.

The Nine Yang Divine Art was praised so highly by Mr. Su; if it was of the same origin as their own Nine Yang Technique, that would be too prestigious.

Abbess Miejue still had a cold face, but various secrets came to her mind, and she couldn't help but raise her voice:

"Mr. Su, Miejue of the Emei sect has a question."

"Just now, Mr. Su said that the 'Nine Yang Divine Art' was obtained by Master Jueyuan."

"And our Emei sect happens to have a 'Nine Yang Technique,' which is rumored to be a remnant of the 'Nine Yang Divine Art'."

"And it is said that the Wudang sect and the Shaolin sect each have a part of the Nine Yang Divine Art remnants."

"But I don't know why this secret manual was divided into three." ===== CHAPTER 543 =====
