Let's put aside Yuna Ito's affairs for now, and her special abilities will be revealed later. There is no need to rush into it at the moment.
Tang Rou'er and Fang Yingying found the military camp early in the morning, but Zhebie, who was in charge of defense, refused to let them disturb Xu Haifeng. Because Xu Haifeng was now sleeping soundly, this was his first time sleeping till dawn since he had made progress in cultivating his internal energy.
Until he startled Jiang Kungming, his eyes rolled over and he thought of a plan, saying that Xu Haifeng practiced last night and had an accident, needing careful care, temporarily unable to see people.
The two women had no choice but to go see Xia Yajun.
As soon as she mentioned last night, Xia Yajun immediately thought of the strange and mysterious pressure from last night, which was indeed sudden and unnoticeable, and coincidentally matched what Jiang Kongming said, and suddenly believed 90%.
The spiritual world is an independent existence, in the eyes of those who have never been in contact with it, it has always been mysterious and unpredictable. Especially for those who have achieved martial arts success but have not set foot in the spiritual realm, they are even more revered and admired.
They knew that Xu Haifeng had gone mad while cultivating his spiritual power, and they were anxious but helpless.
Tang Rou'er thought for a moment, then handed over the task and went to find her master, Li Yanbo. By the time Jiang Kongming received the news, it was already too late to stop her.
If she really found Master Lei Da Zong, how would Xu Haifeng explain everything that happened last night to him.
Jiang Kung-ming solemnly instructed that before Hsu Hai-feng went into seclusion, he had said that this trial could only be overcome by his own strength and not with the help of external forces. Therefore, before he came out of seclusion, no one was allowed to disturb him.
At his command, the entire military camp entered a state of high alert. Thousands of Blood Wine Warriors formed countless walls of bronze and iron. Even if Li Yanbo really came, he could only gaze out at the sea, not daring to force his way in.
Xia Yajun and others felt that Chiang's military advisor was a bit too much, but from this it can be seen that his loyalty to Xu Haifeng was unwavering, truly only heaven can express.
Fortunately, by the time Xu Haifeng came to, Tang Rou'er had still not found Master Li.
As soon as Jiang Kung-ming mentioned it, Xu Haifeng suddenly remembered that he had promised the two girls last night when he left Fang's house to find them this morning, but he had exhausted himself too much last night and fell asleep without waking up, so he had already thrown the matter out of his mind.
The two women waited for Xu Haifeng in vain and naturally went to the military camp to visit him, but it ended up like this, which is really laughable.
Hurriedly washing and dressing, Xu Haifeng gave the order to lift martial law, then he came over to the girls.
The women saw him come out safely and were overjoyed, hastily inquiring about what had happened.
Xu Haifeng sighed and after a while, he elaborated on his injuries in an exaggerated manner.
Of course, as for how he got this injury, that's the biggest secret of the Black Flag Army. He naturally glossed over it with a single sentence, without letting anyone see anything out of place.
Hearing that he couldn't use his spiritual power for ten days or half a month, and that he would be fighting Cheng Yingtao in two days' time, even Xia Yajun was worried about him.
Just looking at Xu Haifeng's nonchalant expression, I admired his carefree and determined spirit even more.
If someone who has grown accustomed to having internal power suddenly loses this power that gives him an edge, he will feel extreme pain and sorrow, and in severe cases, he may never recover. Spiritual power is even more mysterious and elusive than martial arts, so once it's lost, the impact will be even greater.
Fortunately, Xu Haifeng only overexerted himself and would recover in a few days, so he could still face everything calmly.
It's only when the power of habit is suddenly gone that it can't help but make people feel a sense of depression and discomfort.
Jiang Kung-ming knew this principle, so he didn't mind Xu Haifeng's mental slackness and still deliberately accompanied him to chat all night. He also stirred up the rebellious heart hidden deep in his heart. Only in this way can he arouse his fighting spirit and make him appear calm and confident.
As expected, Chiang's military advisor's efforts were not in vain.
Although Xu Haifeng's body was more tired, his spirit had improved a lot. When chatting with the girls, he didn't avoid this topic either, showing good demeanor and broad-mindedness.
"Rou'er sister, why hasn't she come back yet?" Fang Yunying asked impatiently, stamping her little foot.
Liu Ting reached out and grabbed her small hand, saying: "Sister, don't be in a hurry, Master Li's residence is unpredictable, his whereabouts are elusive, it's not that easy to find him."
Since returning to the Great Han territory, Little Princess Liu Ting has been hiding in the carriage and did not dare to come out to see people. The closer she got to the capital, the more cautious she became. If it weren't for Xu Haifeng's unexpected appearance today, with her careful and cautious personality, she wouldn't have shown her face either.
Fortunately, being surrounded by Blood Wine Warriors here is airtight, and there's no need to worry about the risk of news leaks.
Xu Haifeng had already discussed the countermeasures with Jiang Kongming just now, and he smiled at this time: "You don't have to worry either, Rou'er won't have any unexpected events."
Fang Ying gave him a white eye and scolded: "I'm not worried about Ruo Er sister, but I'm worried about you."
Xu Haifeng's heart warmed up, and he smiled gratefully at her, saying: "I don't need to worry even more. To say that my current skills are not inferior to Cheng Yingtao's, even if I'm slightly worse, with the two great mysterious skills on me, at least I can stand undefeated."
Fang Yingying and others also knew this principle, but they were worried and confused, always feeling uneasy in their hearts.
"Big brother mustn't underestimate the enemy. If Master Lei can restore you to your best state, wouldn't that give us a few more layers of assurance?" Liu Ting said softly.
Her words immediately won unanimous approval from all the women.
Xia Yajun sighed: "Unfortunately, Lao Lishi's divine dragon is seen at the beginning but not at the end, and I don't know when it can be found."
Xu Haifeng felt relieved in his heart as he saw the concern of all the women for him, just like eating ginseng fruit, with a comfortable feeling emanating from all 108,000 pores.
"Although Master Li is not here, there is still one person who can be found." Xǔ Hǎifēng said with a calm smile.
"Who..." Lin Wanxian blurted out.
Xia Yajun suddenly raised an eyebrow and exclaimed: "Taiyi Zhenren..."
Taiyi Zhenren, as the leader of the three major sects in Central Plains, if even he can't do anything about it, then even if Li Yanbo comes, he will probably be powerless too.
Under the reluctant gaze of the crowd, Xu Haifeng left the military camp. This time was different from usual, he was no longer alone, and besides Qin Yong, there were also Andrew's three brothers and Lin Changkong, four top-notch masters, who escorted him closely. Even if Master Auben came in person, they could resist for a moment.
Xu Haifeng came to the small Taoist temple in the city and knocked on the door before entering.
That little Taoist who welcomed the guests was the same young Taoist that Xu Haifeng saw last time, and he remembered the young general who was deeply loved by his ancestors. He led him to the living room and went to report to Taiyi Zhenren.
In an instant, he came running over, saying it was a real person summoning him.
Xu Haifeng ordered Qin Yong and others to wait here and not to cause any trouble. Only then did he follow him to see the True Man of Taiyi.
Still in the same small room as last time, still with the same white hair and youthful face.
Xu Haifeng was filled with gratitude and immediately kowtowed: "The junior has seen a true person."
If it weren't for the Taiyi True Person passing on to him the art of quieting his mind, how could he have achieved what he has today? He is truly and deeply grateful to this hundred-year-old elder.
Taiyi Zhenren chuckled and helped him up, his divine eyes carefully examining him. He sighed: "Lao Dao has met countless people in his life, and he had already estimated you to be quite high, but you little guy still managed to greatly surprise Lao Dao."
"If it weren't for your true self teaching me the divine art, I would still be an unknown small soldier who doesn't know martial arts." Xǔ Hǎi Fēng replied respectfully.
Taiyi Zhenren waved his hand and smiled, "You don't have to thank me. Everything has its own destiny. You being able to learn my skills means you are a destined person, this is the will of heaven. However, I see that you seem to be in low spirits, what's wrong?"
Xu Haifeng hastily told the old man all about what had happened since they parted, and when he spoke of how he had come to realize the power of the mind under the spiritual oppression of Tuo Heti, even Taizhen Zhenren was moved.
When all the stories were finished, Yi Zhēn Rén, who had been cultivating for over a hundred years, finally let out a sigh and said, "Heaven has indeed gifted him with talent! It wasn't until now that this old Daoist understands the true meaning of these four words: 'Heaven has gifted him with talent'."
Xu Haifeng hastily said with humility: "If it weren't for your and Old Man Li's careful cultivation, I wouldn't have been able to achieve this breakthrough."
The old Taoist looked at him twice and asked: "Since you have grasped the spiritual power, why can't I feel it on you?"
Xu Feng bitterly smiled and said, "Last night during my cultivation, my spiritual awareness underwent a strange transformation, causing me to overexert myself. At the very least, I'll need ten days to half a month of recuperation to recover."
"Last night? Could it be that the spiritual wave last night was transmitted by you?" Taiyi True Person was greatly shocked.
The spiritual wave of yesterday was incredibly powerful, to the point where it was unbelievable. Compared to him, even if he held himself up, he feared that he would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, unable to withstand a single blow.
If this spiritual wave was emitted by Xu Haifeng, then it would be too ridiculous.
In fact, even if he were incredibly intelligent, he would never have imagined that more than fifty people would all possess spiritual power. When the spiritual powers of these individuals combine as one, the energy released is unprecedented in history.
Xu Haifeng hastily explained to him, of course, without revealing his own secrets, that he had unexpectedly encountered a mysterious power that made his spiritual awareness increase by leaps and bounds, resulting in an overdraft state.
These half-true and half-false words made the old Taoist scratch his head in distress, finally throwing up his hands to indicate that he was powerless to help.
Fortunately, Xu Haifeng did not have too much hope, and since the old man had no way to help, he didn't worry about it anymore.
Xu Haifeng bowed and said: "I've recently learned a new set of skills called Taiji Divine Skill, please enlighten me."
After finishing speaking, he opened his stance and started practicing one move after another.
Taiyi Zhenren was initially hindered by politeness, although he didn't care about it at all, but still forced himself to take a look.
Who would have thought that after a few moves, his spirit was attracted by this set of unprecedented magical swordsmanship, until Xu Haifeng finished a set of sword techniques, he was still immersed in it and couldn't make a sound.
