At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly stopped and looked at the old monk strangely. He asked in surprise,""Old monk, why did you call me here? It's been a while, and they haven't arrived yet?"
A bitter smile appeared on Master Shenke's face. He looked at Ye Chen with kindness in his eyes and said,""You can't eat hot tofu in your heart. Has little benefactor practiced a cultivation technique before?”
"Basically, it can cultivate one's muscles, skin, and bones externally and refine one's essence, qi, and spirit internally. It also has the effect of dual cultivation. Little benefactor, you are blessed with luck! He was a proud son of heaven! I don't have to say anything more. Just follow me!”
"This old monk will not harm you. Oh Amitabha Buddha, monks do not lie!”
Shen Ke smiled and put his hands together. He gestured at Ye Chen and then went down the stone stairs. After a while, they arrived at a cave that was about two meters wide.
.........
Inside the cave, it was dark and damp. There was a severe lack of light, and sunlight could not penetrate. Water droplets fell from the top of the cave from time to time, dripping on the ground with a dripping sound.
The cave was not big, only about five square meters. The ground was full of potholes, and there was water everywhere. Through the dim light, a few centipedes and scorpions could be vaguely seen crawling in the wet place.
Ye Chen frowned and pinched his nose. The smell in this place was terrible! There was the smell of rotten eggs! "Old monk, there's nothing here. Why did you bring me here?"”
"Hurry up if you want. This place stinks! Also, is your nose stuffy? There was actually no reaction? Or was he used to this smell?”
Shen Ke shook her head and smiled without saying anything. She walked to the corner of the cave entrance.
There was a muddy puddle with many unremarkable smooth stones placed inside. The fist-sized stones had a faint green luster and were covered in moss.
Master Shenke used both his hands and jumped up lightly. However, it was as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him. He stomped on two of the stones with his dirty and smelly feet, and the two stones instantly caved in!
Two inches deep! Suppress it alive!
With a bang, a thick stone door slowly opened on the left side of the cave. It was a hidden secret chamber.
The afterglow of the pure white moonlight was like a torrential downpour, surging out from the crack of the door. In this narrow stone cave, it was a little dazzling.
Ye Chen used his hand to cover it slightly, but it really shook him a little. After getting used to it, he looked at the stone door in surprise and exclaimed,"Is it a treasure?"
"Hehe, no, this is something more precious than a treasure. If you get it, you can unify the martial world for thousands of years! Where there are people, there will be martial arts!"
"Oh?"
Master Shenke smiled mysteriously and walked towards the stone door.
"Hehe, you ghost head! What I hate the most is others laughing in front of me!”
……
The green marble door that was about one meter thick and covered with moss sank into the ground, revealing a secret room that was more than ten square meters.
There were seven fist-sized luminous pearls embedded on the ceiling of the secret chamber. The sparkling silver glow was like moonlight, illuminating every corner of the secret chamber.
The light also came from this!
In the small secret chamber, there was a two-meter-tall stone statue. The stone statue was lifelike and looked like a real person!
He was wearing a veil and had a handsome face. His eyes were bright and he looked down on them. There was a lazy smile on his lips.
He was holding a black treasured fan, wearing an extraordinary brocade robe, and had a purple sword hanging at his waist. The treasured fan was obviously not an ordinary item, which added to his unrestrained temperament. The one-meter-long sword emitted a cold killing intent. It was obvious that this sword was genuine!
It looked like it could cut through iron like mud! It was an antique!
Ye Chen could tell that this stone statue was carved with a devilish smile.
Ye Chen did not greedily look at the Night-Luminescent Pearls on the ceiling. These Night-Luminescent Pearls were all natural and expensive, but would he, Ye Chen, lack that bit of money?
Did he look like someone who lacked those Night-Luminescent Pearls?
These Night-Luminescent Pearls were naturally not the main point!
Ye Chen looked at the stone statue. When he saw the spiritual eyes of the stone statue, he could not help but tremble.
As if he felt the weight of Mount Tai, he was slightly out of breath and asked in a daze,"Who is this?"
Master Shenke respectfully walked in front of the stone statue, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times. He put his hands together and said,"Unfilial grand-disciple greets the ancestor! This is my ancestor!"
"Eh, old monk, shouldn't your ancestor be a bald monk? Is your unfilial act of becoming a monk halfway through? Become a monk?"
"Little benefactor, you don't have to ask about this.”
"This great opportunity is yours!”
Shen Ke laughed as he pulled out a dark green jade box that was fifty centimeters long and thirty centimeters wide from a secret compartment behind the stone statue.
The jade box emitted a fresh sandalwood fragrance and flowed with a crystalline luster.
Ye Chen looked at the jade box and asked in anticipation,"Is this the treasure you were talking about?"Is there a treasure map inside?"
"Hehe, little benefactor, you're smiling."
"Little benefactor, you have to open this treasure box. This requires your blood! Not much, not much. Just a little bit of skin on his finger and drip it into the blood tank!”
"Bullshit? Who are you trying to fool?"
However, Ye Chen still took the jade box and gently wiped his left finger along the corner of the jade box. A drop of blood flowed out!
It dripped into the tiny blood groove!
Ye Chen felt a faint sound. He immediately opened the jade box's lid. It was neither gold nor silver. There was only a thick parchment book inside.
The parchment book was well-preserved. It looked to be hundreds of pages long, and it could be considered a big brick in a book. It was a book from some time ago!
Ye Chen looked at the parchment book and his heart thumped. It was definitely not an ordinary item to be kept in such an expensive jade box. His breathing quickened as he said,"The legendary martial arts secret manual?"
"That's right. This is your opportunity.”
Master Shenke looked at Ye Chen's reaction at the moment. If he could open the jade box, all the reactions matched. There was no doubt that it was him. He nodded.
However, Master Shenke swallowed his saliva greedily and pointed with a trembling finger."If you practice our martial arts, your lifespan can be extended by five hundred years, and you can become young again. It's not a dream to be able to control a hundred women in one night, and you can also be invincible. It's a rare treasure that even I can't help but envy.”
"Old man, how old are you?"
Ye Chen asked.
"I'm ninety-two years old this year," Master Shenke was slightly startled.”
"Then why didn't you cultivate this technique and take action?”
"Oh Amitabha Buddha, little benefactor, you don't understand my difficulties!”
Master Shenke sighed slightly and said," It is precisely because of the limitations of my body that I forced myself to cultivate this martial art of extreme yang and extreme yin. That is why I am like this today and it is difficult for me to achieve anything!" Little benefactor, cultivation is about talent and foundation. You should know that everyone's meridians are fixed by nature. Forcefully absorbing spiritual energy into the wasted meridians will not have a good end, nor will it achieve anything!”
"And little benefactor is favored by heaven and earth. I don't know why, but the tendons and meridians in my entire body are simply unprecedented! Cultivating this manual was a must!”
"Indeed, there are times in life that you must have, and there are times in life that you can't force!”
"This martial arts manual is your opportunity. This old monk can be considered to have fulfilled a wish. My sect can be considered to have a successor!”
"Wait, old man, I haven't said that I want to join your sect.”
"It's fine. Our sect's martial arts are only passed on to our disciples. It doesn't matter if they have good or bad personalities. We only care about their talent. Rules were always meant to be broken! As long as this cultivation technique was passed down! This was the legacy! Anyone who learns it will be our sect's disciple!"
"Wait, aren't you a disciple of this sect? Why didn't he know how to cultivate this secret manual? But I heard you say that before, so you cultivated before?”
(Today's second update!) Please look forward to the remaining three chapters!
