Chapter 9: Ling Bo's Light Steps!

  "It seems that in our dormitory 306, I am the weakest. With your skills in blocking sniper shots, I am far inferior to you. My two hands and three triangle cats' work can deal with a few small thugs, but when it comes to sniper guns, my body is absolutely going to be shot through! " Wei Feng sighed. "Old Wei, I am now absolutely many times weaker than you, don't mention sniper guns anymore, even a small thug can knock me down!" Lin Tianyu said gloomily. The boundary has been lost, how can he go to the world of Dragon and Tiger Eight Parts to treat Duan Yun tomorrow? Moreover, tomorrow's celebration, isn't it also impossible to watch on site?!

  "Alright, let's go out first and let Lin Tian recover from his injuries!" Qin Ke said. Xiao Bai took out a small porcelain bottle, poured out a yellow bean-sized jade-colored pill and handed it to Lin Tian: "This is the White Jade Pill, which has an amazing effect on treating wounds and also has some restorative effects on one's vitality!"

  Murong Xue's eyes lit up when she heard the name of Bai Yu Wan, and she said faintly: "Xiao Bai, you're really willing to part with it." It was clear that the Bai Yu Wan wasn't something ordinary. Lin Tian refused, saying: "Xiao Bai, this thing should be extremely precious, right? My injury won't take long to recover from, there's no need to waste it!"

  "Lin Tian, just take it. The greatest use of the White Jade Pill is not to heal wounds, but to accelerate the recovery of your strength after taking it!" Qin Ke said.

  If you refuse again, then don't consider Xiao Bai as a brother. Lin Tian nodded: "Then I'll accept it!" Xiao Bai slightly nodded and put away the jade bottle, turning to leave towards the door. In an instant, except for Zhou Yao, everyone had left. Lin Tian furrowed his brow and said: "Zhou Yao, you should also go rest, this is just a minor injury, it's nothing serious!"

  "I'll peel an apple for you, and then I'm leaving!" Zhou Yao looked up at Lin Tian, seriously peeling the apple. The two were silent for a moment, and the room was filled with a subtle atmosphere. "Being able to have a beauty peel an apple for me is also a kind of blessing, unfortunately, I'm not worthy of her right now!" Lin Tian closed his eyes, fiercely suppressing the emotions in his heart. "Here!" After a long time, Zhou Yao finally finished peeling and handed it to Lin Tian, her white wrist as smooth as jade, almost stirring up Lin Tian's heart again. "Thank you!" Lin Tian took it, saying calmly.

  Zhou Yao got up and walked to the door, hesitated for a moment, turned around and said: "Lin Tian, I'm not worth it!" After finishing speaking, Zhou Yao quickly opened the door and left. "Not worth it? Are you saying that even if I saved her, I still can't be with her?" Lin Tian took a bite of an apple, but felt that it didn't taste good. "Forget it, what's the point of thinking about this? Improving my strength is the key, otherwise next time I might not be so lucky!"

  "Master, the White Jade Pill has some benefits for your body. It can accelerate wound healing and increase cell vitality and strength by about 5%. After taking it, after two days, your cell strength will reach 90 and your cell vitality will reach 88."

  Lin Tian measured the small pellet in his hand: "Able to increase an ordinary person's physical strength and cell vitality by a tenth, it's really not bad!" As he said that, Lin Tian tossed the white jade pellet into his mouth, "Mmm, sweet and quite tasty!"

  Without any strength left, Lin Tian didn't even think of running to the world of Dragon Ball at this time. After finishing the apple and closing his eyes, he began to comprehend the information about I Ching in his mind.

  The dark night quietly passed, and the time has turned to October 1st, 2019! The grand ceremony will be held in front of Tiananmen Gate. "They should have arrived at Tiananmen Gate by now!" Lin Tian thought to himself as he lay on his sickbed. Originally, Zuo Yunfei and others were supposed to stay here with him to watch the live broadcast, but they were stubbornly driven out by Lin Tian.

  "Xiao Ling, how much boundary power is left?" Lin Tian asked in his mind.

  "Master, it's already been five dimensions!"

  "Wu Wei, I haven't entered the Tian Long Ba Bu world for a day and a night, which means I've been in seclusion for a day and a night. It seems like I should go in for a trip, or else Duan Yu will worry! This celebration, it's fine to watch the replay later." Lin Tian muttered to himself, when he was in the Tian Long Ba Bu world, Lin Tian called Duan Yu "Third Brother", but outside, he directly called him by name.

  As soon as the thought moved, Lin Tian's soul entered the Star Ring and then into the secret room of Lingying Mansion in the Heavenly Dragon Eight Diagrams world. "Fortunately, although the body was injured, the soul is completely unscathed!" Lin Tian stretched his body and found everything normal, and exclaimed with joy.

  The secret room opened, and two maidservants stood guard outside the secret room. Seeing Lin Tian come out, they hurriedly paid their respects: "Sir, you're out of confinement. The Emperor has been to the Lingying Estate several times already, and just came here again. He should still be in the estate now." One of the maidservants said.

  "Take me to see Third Brother!" Lin Tian said calmly.

  "Yes, sir!"

  Lin Tian soon arrived in the hall. "Haha, Fourth Brother, I thought you'd think I'd come for nothing this time!" Duan Yu laughed and said as he saw Lin Tian emerge.

  "The recovery of energy is slow, and the delay is a bit longer. Third brother, Duan Yun should be fine, right?" Lin Tian asked. Duan Yu nodded and said: "Good, very good, usually he has an attack once a day, sometimes even twice, but today he hasn't had one yet. Fourth brother, I have to say, your treatment method is really amazing!"

  Lin Tiandao: "As long as it's useful, Third Brother, where's Duan Yun? I'll help him treat his injuries right now!"

  "It's already evening, Yuyan and Yun'er should be asleep by now. According to what you said, Fourth Brother, Yun'er shouldn't fall ill in a short period of time, right? If that's the case, treating her tomorrow during the day would be the same. You've probably reviewed the I Ching quite thoroughly by now, Fourth Brother? Why don't I start teaching you the Lingbo Micro Steps right away?" Duan Yu said.

  "It won't break out in the next ten days or so, let's treat it again tomorrow. The moonlight outside is very bright, and learning the Lingbo Micro Step under the moonlight is quite romantic!" Lin Tian said, his heart was very excited, Lingbo Micro Step, he had been fascinated by it when he read "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" back then, and unexpectedly, he really had a chance to learn it in this life!

  Duan Yu laughed and said: "Fourth brother, you're a refined person too!"

  Two men walked out of the courtyard together. "Fourth brother, Lingbo Wei's footsteps have over a thousand footprints, very complex, and sometimes strange between steps. I'll go first, fourth brother, you can take a good look!" Duan Yu said, and started walking in the courtyard, he was afraid Lin Tian couldn't see clearly, so he walked slowly, it took about ten minutes to finish all the steps. "Fourth brother, how's that? How many did you remember?" Duan Yu asked calmly after finishing one round.

  "Third Brother, I've remembered everything!" Lin Tian asked in his mind and upon knowing that Xiao Ling had recorded everything, he said. "Recorded everything?" Duan Yu exclaimed, "Fourth Brother, this is impossible, right? This footwork is so complicated, how can you remember it all at once? Have you seen such footwork before, Fourth Brother?"

  Lin Tian nodded and then shook his head: "I did take note of it, but I've never seen it before!"

  "Fourth brother, it seems you're really a genius. Fourth brother, I have something to ask you: since you possess that healing energy, can you also learn internal martial arts?" Duan Yu asked. Lin Tian thought for a moment and nodded, "It's possible. Our ancestors had top-notch martial artists, but our generation is incompetent, and we've even lost the techniques passed down by our ancestors!" What's called telling lies without batting an eye? Just look at Lin Tian's current expression!

  "Fourth brother, since it's come to this, I've decided to pass on another divine art to you. Originally, if you had only saved Yun'er, I would have only taught you the Lingbo Micro Step, although you wouldn't be able to use it continuously until you fully grasp it, otherwise there's a risk of meridian disorder. However, since we've become brothers, Third Brother won't hold back either. The North Ming Divine Art is something I coincidentally obtained, so I'll also pass it on to you. Another ultimate skill I know, the Six Pulse Divine Sword, belongs to the Duan family lineage and isn't suitable for me to teach, Fourth Brother please forgive me." said Duan Yu.

  Lin Tian was overjoyed in his heart, the Lingbo Micro Step and the Beiming Divine Art were what he had always wanted to get. As for the Six Pulse Divine Sword, it didn't matter, he could just go to a high-tech civilization and play with a laser gun! What he lacked now was boundary power, the Beiming Divine Art could absorb others' internal energy and transform it into boundary power. If he could learn the Beiming Divine Art, perhaps he could slightly alleviate his lack of boundary power! "The Beiming Divine Art is famous throughout the world, being able to learn it is already a great fortune for Lin Tian! Thank you, Third Brother!" Lin Tian thanked him.

  "It's between brothers, no need to be polite! This is also for your own safety, Fourth Brother. The Lingbo Micro Step may be exquisite, but without inner strength to support it, you can't use it for long periods of time. And in terms of speed, it's much slower than many lightness techniques. It might work against ordinary martial artists, but against a master, it's very dangerous!" Duan Yu said. Lin Tian nodded in agreement, understanding that no matter how exquisite the footwork was, without strong inner strength to support it, it would ultimately be useless!

  "Zhuangzi's 'Free and Easy Wandering' says: 'In the far north of the land of the Dark Sea, there is a Heavenly Pool. There are fish in it, several thousand miles wide, no one knows its depth.' It also says: 'Moreover, if the accumulation of water is not deep, then it does not have the power to carry a large boat. Pouring a cup of water on the floor of a hall, a mustard seed can be used as a boat; placing a cup there makes it stick, the water is shallow and the boat is big.' The divine work of the North Ming emphasizes the accumulation of internal energy as the first important meaning. When internal energy is deep, all martial arts in the world are at my disposal, just like the North Ming, large boats and small boats can all be loaded, large fish and small fish can all be contained. Fourth brother, do you know the many meridian points on a person's body?"

  Lin Tian nodded. "Alright, as a doctor, you naturally know about these meridians!" Duan Yu said, "To practice the Northern Darkness Divine Skill, one must have no internal energy in their body. Your healing energy shouldn't be considered internal energy, so it should be possible to practice it. I'll guide you through it once with my internal energy, and with your exceptional talent, Fourth Brother, you should be able to remember it in one try!" The two sat down on the stone slab in the courtyard, facing each other, their palms touching, as Duan Yu's powerful internal energy surged into Lin Tian's body.

  "Fourth Brother, pay attention and remember, I'll use my internal energy to guide you through the Ren Channel and Hand Taiyin Lung Channel!" Duan Yu said, "This is the path of the Hand Taiyin Lung Channel: 'Shao Shang', 'Yu Ji', 'Da Yuan', 'Jing Qu', 'Lie Que', 'Kong Zui', 'Chi Ze', 'Xia Bai', 'Tian Fu', 'Zhong Fu', 'Yun Men'. Then it flows into the Ren Channel, 'Duan Ji'... 'Shi Men', 'Guan Yuan', 'Zhong Ji', 'Qu Gu', '**'"

  Lin Tian had not practiced martial arts before, but with the help of Jie Li's power, most of his meridians were unblocked. Duan Yu didn't need to open up his meridians again. Duan Yu used his internal energy to guide Lin Tian through Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian and Ren Mai, and saw Lin Tian nodding slightly, then releasing his hands, allowing the internal energy that had entered Lin Tian's body to remain there. "Fourth brother, control your true qi and gather it in the Zhong Qi Hai!"

  Duan Yu's words were naturally heard by Lin Tian, but it was easier said than done. He had no experience in controlling his true energy, and this true energy wasn't even his own to begin with. Trying to control it all at once was difficult! "Fourth Brother, don't be anxious, slowly feel the existence of the true energy, then try using your consciousness to manipulate it!"

  Lin Tian nodded slightly and calmed down, trying to control the true energy still in the **hole with his consciousness. He didn't dare to be careless at all. The **hole was a critical place, and if the true energy were to go berserk there, the impact would be huge. Although he was now just a consciousness body, who knew whether it would also affect his physical body in reality? If that happened, he'd become the modern version of Dongfang Bubai, and he wouldn't need to practice the North Ming Divine Skill anymore; he could directly go practice the Peony Jade Manual instead.
