Chapter 40: The Four Combined Seals

  Baiyun County, West Street.

  "Alright, everyone can disperse now and go home to rest early."

  Tonight is also an unexpected disaster for them.

  Especially Zhang Datou, who was originally rampant in the county, had always been smooth sailing, but unexpectedly just started to restrain himself and was almost hacked by his colleagues with a knife.

  "Slow down, Mr. Shen."

  Chen Ji and others nodded in agreement.

  Zhang Butou opened his mouth again and wanted to continue with the previous question.

  "I didnt hold back, just exchanged a few blows with him to gain some insight." Shen Yi rubbed his temples, feeling a slight headache.

  "Thats more like it." Zhang butchered his lips and finally regained some confidence.

  Shen Yi saw off a few people and then slowly walked towards his own small hut.

  Now that the dog demon and the old gibbon have been beheaded, although they dont seem to have much cultivation, in fact, they are the ones who pose the greatest threat to Baiyun County.

  These next few days will definitely be much easier for myself.

  He walked up to the house and raised his hand to knock on the door, but after a glance at the dense night sky, he withdrew his palm.

  Time for bed?

  Lin Baiwei sat at her desk, diligently copying martial arts texts.

  Only his clenched left fist revealed a hint of worry.

  Originally just wanted to fool that scoundrel of a bailiff, in order to protect his own life.

  Who would have thought that after all this time, the other party almost never had a clean set of clothes to return home with. Lin Baiweis views on him also gradually changed.

  In this chaotic world, those who dare to slay demons are generally not bad people.

  But last nights events had stirred up a thread of discontent in her heart.

  The vast Baiyun County, cant it be that its relying on just one person to guard against demons and monsters? If theres even a slight lapse, itll be a clash of steel!

  Lin Baiwei was washing off the demonic blood from his clothes with her own hands every day.

  Is Shen Yi a lazy person who knows but doesnt report, or is she really unclear?

  Besides, this matter is unreasonable from the start.

  "Are you back?"

  Suddenly hearing the sound of pushing the door, Lin Baiweis pretty face flashed with joy, and she got up to look.

  Shen Yi slightly hesitated, nodded, took off his outer shirt and put it on the cabinet, stretched out his hand to pick up the paper pages on the table and flipped through them: "So many?"

  "The Jade Liquid Realm martial arts involves the manipulation of meridians, acupoints, and breath control of jade liquid, so it cant be compared to ordinary martial arts. Dont rush for now, let me take a few more looks to avoid any mistakes."

  Lin Baiwei briefly explained and found that the other party was unharmed, slightly relieved: "You wash up, Ill go heat up some food for you first."

  "Its okay, I dont have an appetite."

  Shen Yi seemed to be rummaging through things randomly, but her eyes were filled with excitement.

  A brand new reminder suddenly appeared on the panel.

  Jade Liquid Four Harmony True Cauldron (Not Yet Entered the Gate)

  The entire Baiyun County may not be able to find a single copy of the Jade Liquid Martial Arts, and now its quietly lying in my own hands.

  "Even in the Jade Liquid Realm, this is an extremely rare and overbearing method that cant be easily used by those without a deep foundation. Its not quite suitable for your current situation, but for now, I can only bring out this thing."

  Lin Baiwei walked into the kitchen and reminded him: "Practicing martial arts should be done gradually."

  After a while, she put the hot stewed meat soup and a large bowl of rice on the table: "My master said that no matter how much blood you see, no matter how cruel the situation is, you still have to eat."

  Lin Baiwei, who had always refused to acknowledge her master, tonight uttered the words "master" with complete disregard.

  Shen Yi pursed the corner of her lips, not refusing the others kindness, picked up her chopsticks and mixed the tender braised meat with the rice grains together, then quickly swept it all away.

  The warmth of food dispels the gloom in ones heart.

  Shen Yi poured all the meat soup into his stomach and rubbed his small belly contentedly.

  Seeing this, Lin Baiweis lips slightly curled up, and she put down her bowl and chopsticks, leaving the house.

  Wait until its quiet inside the house.

  Shen Yi flipped over and got back on the bed, reopening the panel once again.

  Siheyuan is not internal power, and it doesnt seem to have anything to do with swords either.

  Where is the tyrant?

  Remaining demonic lifespan: six hundred and fifty-one years

  Shen Yi didnt rush into battle, instead he took out three beast coins, each from a Tiger Demon and an Ape Demon.

  He held one in his mouth, and the demons life force quickly poured into the Four Harmony True Cauldron.

  In the first year, you forcibly studied the Jade Liquid Realms law, dissecting one by one the obscure texts and incidentally absorbing the tiger demons beast yuan.

  In the third year, you finally understood this martial art, and the beast yuan had also been fully absorbed. All the breath in your first acupoint was transformed into jade dew.

  In the 29th year, you initially understood the so-called Four Harmonies, which are Heaven, Earth, Human and Self, and successfully achieved the first step of "Unifying Qi with Body", thus entering the true gate of the Four Harmonies.

  In the thirty-second year, your progress was slow, mainly because the internal breath was insufficient to support this martial art. Every attempt would consume all the accumulated energy in the acupoints.

  ……

  Shen Yi stopped pouring and put a second beast yuan into his mouth.

  In the forty-third year, with the help of Yuan, the ape demon beast, your recovery speed accelerated, and you gained insight into "Xin Yuan", and after a long period of practice, you broke through the Four Harmony True Qi to Small Completion.

  In the seventy-second year, you once again realize the importance of talent and elixirs. The former makes your progress slow, while the latter makes it impossible for you to make up for your clumsiness with diligence.

  Seeing this, Shen Yi did not hesitate and swallowed the third beast yuan.

  In the ninety-fourth year, the four combined true seals were fully formed. At this time, with just a wave of your hand, it would be a vast and boundless rain of seals, like a god on earth. However, only you yourself knew that this one wave of the hand was the accumulation of several years.

  In the 130th year, after years of no progress, you felt the pain. Practicing martial arts was no longer a matter of reaping what you sowed. If you didnt understand, you just didnt understand; if you couldnt comprehend, you simply couldnt... You gradually began to blame heaven and others.

  In the 190th year, you lost the thought of complaining in the erosion of time, and quietly filled the orifices, condensed the jade dew, and looked forward to the next attempt.

  In the 260th year, you got up in a daze, without any epiphany, just millions of times of the same move, this time with some slight changes, your numb thoughts didnt even know what caused this subtle change.

  Perfectly harmonious and complete!

  Remaining demonic beast yuan: three hundred and ninety-one years

  ……

  Shen Yis eyes were dazed for a moment.

  That enormous pressure, and knowing but not understanding why, succeeded but fell into even greater confusion, a multitude of emotions intertwined and gathered, only flashing through the mind for an instant...

  He suddenly started having stomach cramps for no reason and wanted to vomit out all his internal organs.

  Fortunately, it returned to normal in an instant.

  "Hiss."

  Shen Yi rubbed her face.

  Practicing martial arts seems no different from working and studying in ones past life.

  Its not hard to get started and memorize a few formulas, but to truly master it, you need to be able to recite them fluently, understand the underlying principles, and even absorb the entire book. Those who can achieve this level are at least big shots in their field.

  Only with such powerful assistance would one dare to conceive of mastering every martial art to perfection.

  When all useless emotions have dissipated, what remains in ones mind is everything about this Jade Liquid Boundary martial art.

  Jade Liquid Fourfold True Completion (Perfection)

  "Initial Realm. Mind Monkey: You have mastered the habits of the ape-like demonic creatures, climbing mountains as if walking on flat ground, and have made progress in martial arts with improved efficiency in footwork."
