Chapter 41: Quad Harmony True Aura
Chapter 41: Quad Harmony True Aura
Baiyun County, West Street.
Shen Yi turned back to the group, "You all should head home and get some rest."
Tonight's events had been an unnecessary disaster for them.
Especially for Zhang Dahu, who had been domineering in the county, always having things go his way. He had just started to restrain himself, only to almost be cut down by a colleague.
"Sir Shen, please take your time."
Chen Ji and the others bowed respectfully.
Zhang Butcher opened his mouth to continue his earlier question.
"I didn't go easy on them, I just rarely spar with others, so I had some realizations." Shen Yi rubbed his forehead slightly, feeling a headache coming on.
"That's more like it." Zhang Butcher smacked his lips, finally regaining some confidence.
Shen Yi sent the group off and then slowly made his way to his own small house.
Now that the dog demon and the old ape demon have been subdued, regardless of their seemingly unimpressive cultivation, they were actually the most harmful to Baiyun County.
His days ahead would undoubtedly be much easier.
He walked up to his door and reached out to knock but then looked at the thick night sky and withdrew his hand.
She should be asleep by now, right?
Lin Baiwei sat at the table, carefully transcribing a martial art.
Only her tightly clenched left palm revealed a hint of worry.
She had only intended to fool that good-for-nothing law enforcement officer to save her own life.
Who would have thought that after this period of time, the other party had almost never returned home with clean clothes, and Lin Baiwei's opinion of him had gradually changed.
In this chaotic world, those who dare to subdue demons are unlikely to be bad people.
But last night's events had stirred up a hint of anger in her heart.
In such a vast county as Baiyun, could it be that they relied solely on one person to guard against demonic beings? Any slight negligence would lead to bloodshed! Lin Baiwei personally washed the demon blood off his clothes every day.
Was Shen Yi an informed but lazy person who didn't report the truth? How could she not be clear about that?
Moreover, this task was inherently unreasonable.
"You're back?"
Suddenly, she heard the sound of the door opening, and a hint of joy flashed across Lin Baiwei's pretty face as she got up to look.
Shen Yi was slightly startled, nodded, took off his outer robe and placed it on the cabinet. He picked up the paper on the table and started reading: "This much?"
"Jade Dew Realm martial arts involve meridians, acupoints, and the manipulation of Jade Dew breath. It's naturally not comparable to ordinary martial arts. Don't worry, let me read through it a few times to ensure there are no errors or omissions."
Lin Baiwei explained briefly and noticed that he was uninjured, slightly relieved: "You should clean up, and I'll reheat the food for you."
"No need, I'm not really hungry."
Shen Yi appeared to be flipping through the pages randomly, but his eyes were filled with surprise.
A new reminder suddenly appeared on the board.
【Jade Dew. Quad Harmony True Aura (Uninitiated)】
The entire Baiyun County might not be able to find a single copy of a Jade Dew Realm martial art, and now it lay quietly in his hands.
"Even in the Jade Dew Realm, this is an extremely rare and powerful technique. Only those with deep cultivation foundations can use it easily; it's not very suitable for your current situation. But for now, this is the best I can offer."
Lin Baiwei walked into the kitchen and reminded him: "Martial arts practice should be gradual."
A moment later, she placed the heated stew and a large bowl of rice on the table: "My master once said that no matter how much blood you've seen or how gruesome the scene, you still need to eat."
Lin Baiwei, who had never acknowledged having a master, casually mentioned the word 'master' tonight.
Shen Yi pursed his lips slightly, not refusing her kindness. He picked up the chopsticks and mixed the tender stew with the rice, quickly finishing it all.
The warmth of the food dispelled the gloom in his heart.
Shen Yi drank all the stew, feeling satisfied as he rubbed his belly.
Seeing this, Lin Baiwei's lips curled slightly, and she tidied up the bowls and chopsticks before leaving the room.
As the room fell silent, Shen Yi climbed onto the bed and reopened the panel.
"Quad Harmony True Aura," he muttered. "It's not an Inner Strength technique and doesn't seem related to swords or blades either."
Where is the dominance in this?
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 651 years]
Shen Yi didn't rush to practice; instead, he took out three Beast Cores, each from a Tiger Demon and an Ape Demon.
He held one in his mouth, and the demon's lifespan quickly infused into the Quad Harmony True Aura.
[Year 1: You forcibly cultivate the Jade Dew Realm technique, deciphering the obscure text while absorbing the Tiger Demon's beast core.]
[Year 3: You finally understand this martial art. The beast core has been fully absorbed, and all the essence in your first Qi cavity has transformed into Jade Dew.]
[Year 29: You initially comprehend the concept of 'Quad Harmony,' which represents the unity of heaven, earth, and self. You successfully achieve the first step, 'Breath and Body Unity,' and enter the Quad Harmony True Aura.]
[Year 32: Your progress is slow, mainly due to insufficient Qi to support this martial art. Each attempt depletes all the accumulated essence in your Qi cavities.]
...
Shen Yi stopped the infusion and placed the second beast core in his mouth.
[Year 43: With the help of the Ape Demon's beast core, your Qi recovery speed increases. You understand the concept of 'Mind Monkey' and, after prolonged practice, break through to the initial stage of Quad Harmony True Aura.]
[Year 72: You once again realize the importance of talent and precious elixirs. Your talent slows your progress, and the lack of elixirs prevents you from making up for it with hard work.]
Without hesitation, Shen Yi consumed the third beast core.
[Year 94: Quad Harmony True Aura reaches completion. With a wave of your hand, heavenly true aura rains down, making you seem like a terrestrial immortal. But only you know that this single wave has taken years of accumulation.]
[Year 130: After years of stagnation, you feel the pain. Martial arts cultivation is no longer a simple input-output process. If you don't understand, you don't understand, and if you can't comprehend, you can't comprehend... You gradually begin to resent heaven and blame others.]
[Year 190: Eroded by time, you lose the desire to complain. You quietly fill your Qi cavities, refining Jade Dew, anticipating the next attempt.]
[Year 260: You wake up in a daze, without any sudden enlightenment. After countless identical attempts, there is a slight change, but your numb thoughts can't even comprehend the reason for this change.]
[Quad Harmony True Aura, Perfection!]
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 391 years]
...
Shen Yi's eyes were dazed for a moment.
The immense pressure and the feeling of understanding the result but not the process overwhelmed him. Various emotions intertwined and flashed through his mind for an instant...
Suddenly, his stomach began to convulse, and he felt like vomiting out his internal organs.
Thankfully, the sensation passed quickly.
"Hiss."
Shen Yi rubbed his face.
This martial arts cultivation seemed no different from his past life's work and studies.
It's easy to get started and memorize a few key formulas, but achieving perfection requires complete mastery and understanding, even digesting the entire book. Those who can do this are at least top experts in their field.
Only with his powerful assistance would he dare to have the ambition to perfect every martial art.
As the unnecessary emotions dissipated, what remained in his mind was everything about this Jade Dew Realm martial art.
[Jade Dew. Quad Harmony True Aura (Perfection)]
[Initial Realm. Mind Monkey: You thoroughly understand the habits of ape-like demons, moving on mountains as if on flat ground, improving the efficiency of your footwork in martial arts.]
