Most of the battles in the rivers and lakes are caused by two things, one is treasures, and the other is martial arts secrets.
For example, the initial trigger of this martial arts dispute was the 1.5 million taels of official silver for disaster relief.
Fortunately, the imperial court acted quickly, and in less than three months, most of the official silver had been recovered. As for the famous painting Five Cows that was stolen from the palace, although it has not been found yet, it is no longer relevant to the overall situation. Official silver is used for disaster relief. Once recovered, many victims will benefit immediately. As for the Five Oxen Picture, it is actually just a dispensable item in the palace. Looking for it later will not have any impact.
Sheng Lingren had made countless calculations, but his two sons had not been counted. Until now, he still hasn't figured out when exactly Sheng Zhiqiang secretly learned his Holy Qigong.
At the beginning, although he and Master Shizu Meiyun both practiced Holy Qigong. However, the master's holy qigong secrets were still not passed on to him, but to his senior sister Mei Yun. Probably Qi Yongsen finally thought that Master Mei Yun was obviously more reliable than Sheng Lingren, so he passed on the secret book of Holy Qigong to her.
Sheng Lingren does not have the secret book of Holy Qigong, and all the mental formulas and formulas only exist in his heart. So when he found out that his son also secretly practiced Holy Qigong, he naturally couldn't figure out what was going on.
Sheng Lingren has a very secret training room in his temple. No one was allowed to enter this secret room except himself, and even his two sons had never entered it. Because his Holy Qigong practice had not yet reached its peak, he had to go to the training room frequently to study, so he casually wrote down many mental formulas of Holy Qigong, as well as some of his own understanding of Holy Qigong. However, these things alone cannot form a complete Holy Qigong mind method. Even if Sheng Zhiqiang really sneaked into his practice room while he was away, he still didn't believe that Sheng Zhiqiang could practice Holy Qigong with only the messy and incomplete inner skills and mental methods he left behind.
If Sheng Zhiqiang had such ability, Sheng Lingren would not look down on him, and it would be even less likely for him to mess up many of the things he had given him.
"Could it be that Senior Sister passed on the secret book of Holy Qigong to Zhiqiang? It's unlikely?" Sheng Lingren could only suspect Master Mei Yun.
After much thought, Sheng Lingren came up with the only possibility: Master Mei Yun secretly taught Sheng Zhiqiang Holy Qigong. In fact, Sheng Lingren's guess was indeed correct. Sheng Zhiqiang's Holy Qigong is really related to Master Mei Yun. However, it was not Master Meiyun who passed on the secrets of Holy Qigong to him, she only passed on part of his inner workings of Holy Qigong.
It turns out that Shen Lingyu's defection to Sheng Lingren was a lie, but everyone in the temple believed it to be true. Sheng Zhiqiang knew that Master Mei Yun was his father's senior sister, so he secretly discussed with Shen Lingyu and asked her to extract the inner formula of Sheng Qigong from Master Mei Yun. After discussing with Master Mei Yun, Shen Lingyu finally decided to teach Sheng Zhiqiang some incomplete holy qigong inner formulas so as not to make him suspicious.
Sheng Zhiqiang didn't know what was true and what was false, so he practiced according to his heart's method, and he really achieved some success in Holy Qigong. However, he was afraid that his father would know about this, so he never dared to show it to outsiders, and he did not know what level of holy qigong he had practiced.
When he defeated Wudang leader Lu Chengyong with Holy Qigong at the martial arts competition, he became even more convinced that he had mastered Holy Qigong. The holy qigong mental formulas that Master Mei Yun passed on to him were naturally genuine. However, in order to prevent Sheng Zhiqiang from actually practicing it, she still tampered with many of the most critical places, and the last level dominated the world. There is not a single word of mental formula at all. Master Mei Yun gave this incomplete set of mental techniques to Sheng Zhiqiang just to perfunctory him. She herself didn't even know what would happen if Sheng Zhiqiang kept practicing according to this mental formula. But at this point, she couldn't care so much. If she didn't hand over her inner thoughts, it would definitely arouse Sheng Zhiqiang's suspicion. If Sheng Lingren knew about it by then, their plan would have failed.
Sheng Zhiqiang practiced Holy Qigong and defeated his enemies in martial arts competitions to show his power, so he was naturally very arrogant, as if there was no other opponent for him in the world of martial arts. He actually had no idea that his martial arts skills were still far, far away.
After Zhang Yudang discovered that Prince Xiao was missing, he asked his disciple Wu Xing to go to the temple to find Prince Xiao's whereabouts and be sure to rescue him as soon as possible.
When the fifth line entered the temple, he was suddenly stopped by a man about his own age. This man was none other than Sheng Zhiqiang, who was now very angry.
Since Wu Xing realized the secrets of the Five Elements Qi, his martial arts have skyrocketed and he has become one of the few top masters in the world.
That day, he was chased by many masters from Dongchang. He defeated several masters from Dongchang with one attack. This kind of martial arts was already very impressive and extremely rare in the world.
"Fifth brother, where are you going?" Sheng Zhiqiang stopped him and asked.
The fifth line just saw him using the Holy Qigong, and he also knew that his martial arts was no longer what it used to be, so he naturally had to be careful and replied calmly: "Looking for someone?"
"Who? Prince Xiao?"
"Yes, where did you hide him?" The fifth line asked directly.
"Haha! Fifth brother, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense! Which of your eyes saw that I hid the prince? If you didn't see it, don't talk nonsense!" Sheng Zhiqiang said sarcastically.
"Okay!" The fifth line was not familiar with Sheng Zhiqiang and didn't want to talk nonsense with him. He suddenly flew away and went into the temple.
Sheng Zhiqiang yelled "Where are we going?" and then slapped a palm, and the palm force hit the fifth row's back. In the fifth line, without looking back, he casually slaps his left hand backwards, just like the wave hitting the shore. The fifth line has now integrated the Five Elements Qi into his own martial arts. After being stimulated by the ice water power, his storm wave slap palm is even more powerful than the master's dripping water power.
Sheng Zhiqiang originally thought that he could directly defeat the fifth line as soon as he used his holy qigong. But he underestimated the fifth line. He didn't even know that the fifth line's skill was far superior to his.
The fifth line was slapped with a palm, and Sheng Lingren saw that the palm force of the fifth line, with a biting cold air, came towards his face with the power of a big wave. As soon as his holy qigong came into contact with the icy water palm power of the fifth line, it dissipated in an instant, just like dust and sand encountered a big storm, and was blown away by the nine-night cloud in a snap of his fingers.
Sheng Zhiqiang "thump thump thump" took several steps back, the blood in his body was boiling, and he almost couldn't suppress it. Sheng Zhiqiang hurriedly exercised his energy and breath, unable to believe that this was true.
