Upon hearing this, Lü Ci fell completely silent.
However, Chen Xiao gave Lü Ci a deep look and continued:
"Besides this spirit-binding and general-sending technique, there is also the Tongtianlu (a talisman used by Zheng Zibu of Shangqing) from back then."
Honestly, you can tell this thing is related to the art of talismans just by hearing its name.
I've heard that this thing doesn't require any preparation; you just draw talismans in the air, and it's quite powerful.
But, Lao Lü, guess why those Taoist priests make so many preparations before drawing talismans?
The process involves fasting and purifying the body, and this must be done for seven days in advance, including a vegetarian diet and abstaining from alcohol. Before drawing the talisman, one must also bathe, change clothes, rinse one's mouth, and wash one's hands.
Guess why they made so many preparations.
Upon hearing this, Lü Ci frowned and said:
"Is drawing a talisman really that complicated?"
Even the sand martins looked puzzled.
"It's really this complicated?"
Chen Xiao: "Of course, this is the core of the talisman."
Do you know what the essence of talismans is?
The essence of this thing is to borrow power from the heavens; however, this heaven is not so easy to borrow.
Therefore, Taoist priests would write things on it, such as thunder talismans, which are things from the Thunder Department.
Fire talismans are deities associated with the fire element.
Another method is to directly write down the name of an even more powerful deity. As long as the deity responds, then the talisman will be complete.
However, generally speaking, they will agree, because the talisman is actually just a matter of whether the gods agree or not.
For something truly powerful, it requires the intervention of the gods.
The reason they are gods is because gods control the laws of heaven and earth, and some of the power of these laws.
Therefore, writing the name of a deity is actually similar to submitting a letter to the gods and asking for their power.
However, the Tongtianlu (通天简) doesn't have so many problems.
The Tongtianlu (通天简) is a direct way of seizing power from someone else's means, even if it's only temporary.
But, Lao Lü, guess what would happen if the gods really still existed?
Upon hearing this, Lü Ci felt a chill run down his spine.
"This...this can't be true, there really is a god?"
Chen Xiao shook his head and said:
"I don't know either, but there's no smoke without fire!"
Moreover, who knows what happened to those beings who ascended to heaven?
Also, perhaps they can't talk to us right now because of certain things.
But tell me, what if they actually show up...?
Lü Ci: "The Tongtian Record, that's a forbidden book!"
Chen Xiao: "Smart! Lao Lü! Of course, there are ways. If your backing is strong enough, you can use it."
Lü Ci: "Heh, with such a powerful backer, what need is there for the Heavenly Scroll!"
Chen Xiao simply smiled and continued:
"Also, that so-called Ma Benzai's Divine Refinement Technique, to put it bluntly, is just a method of weapon forging."
I won't go into too much detail.
However, this method may also have limitations.
Otherwise, Ma Benzai wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state back then.
As for that so-called Da Luo Dong Guan, I have never seen it, I have only heard a few words about it.
However, it sounds like it should be the ultimate form of observation, and perhaps it also involves techniques such as the Yang God.
We're not entirely sure about the specifics.
However, there should be some limitations, otherwise, the problem would be really big.
And then there's that Six Treasuries Immortal Thief; I do know a little about that thing.
However, I think that, Mr. Lü, you probably wouldn't let anyone learn this thing.
Unless, you want to exterminate your entire clan.
After all, the person who mastered this technique ran into trouble during the fight!
Lu Ci suddenly widened his remaining eye and said:
"Do you know where Ruan Feng is?"
Chen Xiao nodded and said:
"I know a little bit, though not much, but I've heard of it. After all, that guy has also gone abroad."
However, this skill, well, it starts with eating, which can continuously improve physical fitness and even increase one's Qi.
However, as time goes by, a person will gradually change.
They will no longer crave ordinary food, but will instead desire to devour more sophisticated things.
"Old Lu, guess what's even more advanced?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Ci remained silent for a long time, his expression growing increasingly grim. Finally, he slowly uttered a few words:
"Humans, and also superhumans!"
"Clap clap clap... Clap clap clap..."
Chen Xiao immediately clapped his hands and said:
"Impressive, truly impressive. I must say, Lao Lü, you do have some brains."
That's right, and once you start eating, you can't resist anymore!
So, it's the demonic path of cannibalism!
If the supernatural beings found out about this, I don't need to tell you what would happen!
Upon hearing this, Lü Ci took a deep breath and finally nodded heavily.
At this moment, Chen Xiao looked at Lü Ci and said:
"Old Lu, is this the last one? Do I need to continue?"
Lü Ci…………
"Speak!" Lü Ci gritted his teeth.
"I want to hear what the danger lies in this last one!"
Seeing this, Chen Xiao sighed and said:
"Hehe, Lao Lü, you really are something else, you won't give up until you see the Yellow River!"
Alright, since you've put it that way, I'll say something.
Duanmu Ying, skilled in both arts.
Honestly, among the Eight Extraordinary Skills, the most troublesome, insidious, and terrifying in my opinion is this "Complete Hands" technique.
The Dual-Hand Technique is all about achieving both physical and mental well-being!
With his red hand, he can heal any injury on the body, even limb regeneration.
One blue hand, specializing in healing souls; it can easily invade the souls of others, and even deceive and alter a person's perception.
Upon hearing this, Feng Shayan's eyes widened, and she said incredulously:
"Directly altering the soul? How is that possible?"
Chen Xiao simply smiled and said:
"Old Master Lü, I wonder if you've ever thought about why the cultivation technique that Duanmu Ying comprehended could become a so-called bloodline inheritance ability?"
Duanmu Ying, she only comprehended it. Since it is a cultivation technique, why has it become a so-called innate superpower in your hands?
Old man, have you ever thought about why she... did this?
And since she can change a person's perception?
So, is she really dead?
Upon hearing this, Lü Ci's expression completely changed.
"The Dual-Handed Technique, is it really a martial art?"
Chen Xiao: "Otherwise, this is a technique from the medical lineage, just a little special."
So, old man, haven't you thought about it?
Since the blue hand can change a person's perception.
So, are your Lu family's memories real? Even if they are, what about the others?
Moreover, as far as I know, there's a guy out there who's good at both.
Moreover, they have already amassed considerable influence through this very tactic.
Guess what she really wants to do? Or rather, what did they do back then, and why did the Eight Extraordinary Skills emerge?
That's why I told you from the beginning, old man, that you might be willing to join our alliance.
"We, the Extraordinary Ones Alliance, will take responsibility for this!"
Lü Ci took a deep breath and said:
"Give me some time, I need to think about it!"
Chapter 103 The Thirty-Six Thieves: Why are they called "thieves"?
Nighttime, in a guest room in Lüjia Village.
Chen Xiao held the naked Feng Shayan in his arms, and the two of them quietly leaned against the headboard.
At this moment, the sand gull said weakly:
"Xiao! Does the Lü family also possess the Eight Extraordinary Skills? Did they seize the opportunity to acquire the Eight Extraordinary Skills back then, and even the Dual-Handed Skill you mentioned at the end?"
Chen Xiao nodded and said:
"Hmm...more or less! Dual-wielding technique, one of the Eight Extraordinary Skills."
However, this method... how should I put it, it's insidious, and it has its problems.
Upon hearing this, Feng Shayan asked in confusion:
"What's the problem?"
Chen Xiao: "Dual-wielding technique, a very interesting skill."
However, as I mentioned before, Duanmu Ying somehow managed to turn the Dual-Handed Technique from a martial art into an innate superpower.
Moreover, it's an innate superpower within one's bloodline!
"So, tell me, how did Lü Ci obtain this innate bloodline with extraordinary abilities?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Shayan's eyes widened instantly, and she said incredulously:
"No way, this matter... Lü Ci... he wouldn't have done something to Duanmu Ying..."
"That can't be! I heard from Old Wang that he and Duanmu Ying are already husband and wife!"
Hearing this, Chen Xiao shook his head and said:
"I don't know about this, and I can't say for sure, but the possibility is not very high."
Of course, who knows about that era? I certainly don't.
