Chapter 7 Talking about the Martial Palace
In the end, Zhu Rong gave Lin Yan a definite answer, and the place where they were located was a branch of the central temple.
The central shrine is divided into three major halls, and it is one of the three major halls where Lin Yan and the others are located, which is the place where the great witch explains the mysteries of martial arts to future generations and tests the martial arts achievements of future generations.
The other two sub-halls are the Refining Hall and the Alchemy Hall, which are the places for crafting weapons and refining pills. Judging from the current situation, the ninth sword spirit should have been teleported to other branch halls.
Zhu Rong specially explained the rules of this place to Lin Yan, and the stone statues on both sides were unique black stone puppets of the Wu clan, which were indestructible and were specially used to test martial arts. The futon in the middle is called the enlightenment futon, which can help the martial artist realize the Tao and has the purpose of improving the realm of martial arts. And the method of use is very simple, as long as the warrior sits on it.
However, if you want to get the chance of enlightenment, you must first pass the martial arts test. At the very least, you need to defeat the black stone puppet to obtain the enlightenment qualification, and the more black stone puppets you defeat, the higher the corresponding enlightenment futon will be.
The strength of the Wushi puppet is determined by the strength of the assessor, and it can comprehensively replicate the strength of the assessor, including physical strength and martial arts cultivation, and the only thing it assesses is the assessor's mastery of martial arts.
Each martial art is divided into four realms: entry, small success, great success, and consummation, but it is said that some very advanced martial arts also have a realm, which is called innate supernatural power beyond the consummation.
This innate supernatural power is different from the so-called innate supernatural supernatural power, which has a fixed number in the entire universe, no more, no less, just three thousand. It is a magical power given by the true way of heaven, and each of them has the power of overwhelming mountains and seas and changing stars.
And the so-called talent is just an exaggeration, but in fact, his essence is still a martial art. Talent supernatural powers are actually derived from innate supernatural powers, and each person who has the power of innate supernatural powers will have a great chance of obtaining the inheritance of innate supernatural powers. This so-called innate supernatural power is actually an innate supernatural power that has been weakened countless times, and there is a certain chance that it can evolve and become an innate supernatural power.
However, the innate supernatural power is not controlled, and his power depends entirely on the strength of the bloodline, so he was given the name innate supernatural power.
However, if the innate supernatural power wants to evolve into an innate supernatural power, it is not a simple matter. First of all, it must be controlled by the previous generation of innate supernatural powers to be successful after death, because every innate supernatural power can only be mastered by one person.
Of course, there are many other mysteries about innate supernatural powers, which are not what Lin Yan can know now.
However, this black stone puppet assessment has pinpointed Lin Yan's current weaknesses. Lin Yan's biggest weakness now is not the lack of cultivation, but the mastery of martial arts is too low, and he can't fully play the advantages of Lin Yan's body at all.
Every time, it basically relies on brute force, and there is no skill, as long as you meet a strong opponent, you will lose very badly.
Just like Lin Yan's previous battle with the Ninth Sword Spirit, Lin Yan actually didn't have much skill to speak of, and he completely looked at the superiority of weapons and brute force to win.
Now Lin Yan can take this opportunity to hone his martial arts skills and improve his combat skills.
There are a total of five black stone puppets in each row, corresponding to the five realms of martial arts. Lin Yan first chose the first puppet on the right hand, using the auxiliary combat technique "Golden Battle Body" of the "Flood Desolation Holy Body". And after Ji Mingyue told her the rules, she directly chose the third puppet on the left.
Seeing Ji Mingyue's choice, Lin Yan couldn't help but sigh, it is worthy of a martial arts family with a long heritage, and some aspects are indeed comparable to an upstart like Lin Yan. Those disciples who inherit the family have been practicing martial arts since they were young, and their proficiency is definitely not ordinary after practicing a set of martial arts for decades.
And what made Lin Yan feel relieved was that this black stone puppet would also be able to "Golden Battle Body". However, this is not surprising, although the "Flood Desolation Holy Body" is the secret of the Wu clan, it is only used to build a foundation, and it is not a top-level exercise.
In this way, Lin Yan can find out his flaws and deficiencies through comparison with the Wushi puppet, so as to make up for it.
To be honest, Lin Yan's mastery of the first style of "Golden Battle Body" can only be regarded as just reaching the entry level. So even the first puppet, Lin Yan couldn't beat it. In the first assessment, Lin Yan was directly whipped out by the black stone puppet, hit the wall of the palace and was bounced back.
On the other hand, Ji Mingyue was on par with the black stone puppets, which greatly stimulated Lin Yan's strong self-esteem as a man, and vowed to defeat these black stone puppets.
And Lin Yan was purely thinking too much, Ji Mingyue didn't have the time to pay attention to Lin Yan's situation at the moment, after she fought with the Wushi puppet, she was pleasantly surprised to find that her martial arts that had not improved were increasing little by little.
Before this, Ji Mingyue had been cultivating the martial art "Flying Star Sword Duel" for eight years. But since her "Flying Star Sword Duel" reached the Dacheng realm a year ago, it has been making slow progress. Until recently, it had stopped growing, and no matter how much she cultivated, it didn't improve at all. Just when she was fighting with the Wushi puppet, Ji Mingyue obviously felt that her control over "Flying Star Sword Duel" was progressing towards the consummation realm little by little.
This made her forget all the interference from the outside world and devote herself to the competition, and she didn't even notice Lin Yan's embarrassment.
An hour passed quickly, and after dozens of failures, Lin Yan couldn't catch the first move, and had improved to the point where he could fight with the first Wushi puppet.
The second hour passed, and Lin Yan made great progress again, completely suppressing the first Wushi puppet. After more than half an hour, Lin Yan said big brother in vain, and the long stick in his hand instantly skyrocketed, and the first black stone puppet was pumped out more than ten meters away with one stick. Finally, Lin Yan defeated the first Wushi puppet and gained a chance to enlighten.
Lin Yan turned his head to look at Ji Mingyue, only to see that she didn't notice the scene on Lin Yan's side at all, and was still fighting selflessly, and gradually began to gain the upper hand.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yan began to challenge the second puppet, repeating the experience of the previous round again, and continued to be whipped away by the long stick in the hands of the black stone puppet again and again.
From the beginning to the small success, the most important thing in "Optimus Strike" is a change of words, not an increase in strength. The "Optimus Strike" Xiaocheng realm contains a total of nine changes, not only can he simply use a long stick, he can change any weapon at will. As long as the transformation of this weapon is done as you like, it can be regarded as reaching the realm of Xiaocheng.
After being beaten for an hour, Lin Yan started from using a long stick and slowly began to transform into other weapons, or knives or swords, although he was not able to do whatever he wanted, but it was also a great progress.
Lin Yan was not in a hurry now, because the time flow rate of the Martial Arts Hall was ten times that of the outside, so Lin Yan had plenty of time now. Plus it's rare to have such a great opportunity to hone his fighting skills.
Ji Mingyue has fought dozens of times with the third Wushi puppet, but her "Flying Star Sword Duel" still has not broken through to the consummation realm, and has always hovered at the peak of the Dacheng realm.
And Lin Yan is also the second Wushi puppet who has not been able to break through to the Dacheng realm for a long time and cannot be defeated. Both seemed to be in trouble for a moment.
An hour passed, and two hours passed, until the third hour was almost gone.
"Ah......h
I only heard Lin Yan suddenly shout, Lin Yan raised the heavenly machine in his hand high, only to see that the heavenly machine actually conjured up nine kinds of weapons at the same time: knives, guns, swords, and sticks. Eventually, all the sword phantoms merged into one, turning into a long stick again, carrying the power of a thunderbolt, and smashing into the second black stone puppet. In an instant, the second black stone puppet was smashed away by Lin Yan with a stick.
Ji Mingyue was attracted by Lin Yan's sudden shout, turned her head to look in Lin Yan's direction, and just happened to see the scene of Lin Yan smashing the black stone puppet out of the air. Immediately taken aback, Lin Yan's martial arts power shocked her, although Lin Yan's martial arts realm could not compare to her "Flying Star Sword Duel", but Ji Mingyue believed that her "Flying Star Sword Duel" was definitely not Lin Yan's opponent of "Optimus Strike".
This is a huge difference in the level of martial arts, and it is difficult for low-grade martial arts to defeat high-level martial arts through the realm. On the contrary, even if the high-level martial arts are lower, they can defeat those low-level martial arts.
Just like Lin Yan had used the "Heavenly Strike" to defeat the sword move of the Ninth Sword Spirit before, the grade of the martial arts completely made up for the lack of realm.
"Whew!" Lin Yan exhaled a breath of turbidity, picked up the heavenly machine in his hand, and resolutely walked in front of the third black stone puppet.
Watching Lin Yan walk towards the third black stone puppet, Ji Mingyue's battle intent was suddenly stimulated. Originally, she was going to give up the third puppet and defeat the second puppet. However, Lin Yan successfully defeated the second puppet, causing Ji Mingyue to give up this plan.
Because she didn't know when she started, she was already very concerned about Lin Yan's opinion of her, so in order not to let Lin Yan look down on her, she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, turned around and threw herself into the battle again.
And Lin Yan looked at Ji Mingyue with a gritted teeth, and thought that he had provoked this eldest lady somewhere, and couldn't help but wonder. With a slightly bitter smile, Lin Yan shrugged his shoulders and began his beaten journey again, and screams resounded one after another in the hall.
