"Mom, are you really a "little bookworm"? When did you come back?" Liu Ying was young at the time, and her family only told Liu Yu to study abroad, concealing the truth.
Liu Ying did not expect that her younger brother would go to study abroad. He left for more than ten years and never returned home again. She often asked her mother about Liu Yu's condition, but her mother always kept silent and suddenly appeared, which made her a little unbelievable.
"What 'little nerd', you girl? Hey! This is your little brother Liu Yu." Mrs. Ai glared at Liu Ying and said.
"Yu'er, come meet your brother-in-law." Liu Qing came over with Diao Ren and Diao Yitian.
"Brother-in-law, little brother Liu Yu." Liu Yu saluted quickly. His brother-in-law was really tall and burly, much stronger than himself.
"My name is Diao Ren, hehe!" Diao Ren responded honestly.
Diao Ren was also very curious about this brother-in-law whom he had never seen before. He had thin skin and tender flesh, and he was really a handsome scholar.
"Alright, third brother, let the in-laws go inside first and let's talk slowly!" Madam Wang looked at the crowds of people gathering together and said to Liu Qing.
"Sister-in-law said, Brother Diao, please come inside!" Liu Qing said hurriedly to his old friend.
"Go, let the kitchen prepare food and wine, and clean the wing." Then he ordered the servants to hold a banquet and arrange a place to rest and stay, and the servants who were watching went to work.
Liu Qing led a group of people chatting at the door and walked into the escort agency. The lifeless "Liuyun Escort Agency" began to resume its former bustle.
The faint moonlight shines on the roof of Liuyun Escort's backyard, making the emerald green glazed tiles glow slightly. It was already late at night, and the noise caused by the reunion of family members in the courtyard had also quieted down. Only a few scattered rooms had lights coming out, and everyone had rested and slept.
In an elegantly decorated bedroom in the courtyard, Liu Yu was sitting cross-legged on the bed practicing the "Huangmu Peiyuan Gong".
When he returned home, his relatives treated him very kindly and did not feel like a stranger. After the noisy banquet, his parents took him to a quiet study room and asked him carefully about his practice life in Huangsheng Mountain over the years, how he was doing, and whether he had suffered. Liu Yu felt warmed by her parents' concerned inquiries, and realized the family affection that she had never experienced in the mountains.
Liu Yu opened her eyes, stood up and stopped practicing. She walked to the wooden table and sat down and poured a cup of green tea, feeling a little irritated.
Because where lay people live, the concentration of spiritual energy in the outside world is too thin, less than one percent of that in Huang Shengshan. It is equivalent to practicing hard for a hundred days in a place where lay people live, and it is equivalent to practicing for a day in the Yangyuan Temple of Huangsheng Mountain.
No wonder the disciples' external assignments within the sect made the disciples blush. Thinking of this, Liu Yu became depressed, wondering why he was so unlucky to be assigned such a difficult sect assignment.
"Yu'er, are you asleep?" There was a knock on the door from his father Liu Qing.
"Dad, please come inside!" Liu Yu stood up quickly, opened the door and invited Liu Qing into the house.
"Yu'er, with your current cultivation level, can you defeat the innate masters in the martial arts world?" Liu Qing asked after sitting down and looking at his child in silence for a while.
Liu Qing knows that cultivators have great magical power and can do anything in heaven or on earth. But I know very little about cultivators. As for whether Liu Yu could defeat the enemy, the innate master among the bandits was not very clear, so he asked this question. He didn't want his child to take risks.
"Dad, those so-called innate masters in the martial arts world can't get into a child's body and can defeat him within ten moves." Although Liu Yu was surprised why his father asked about this, he quickly replied.
Worldly martial arts masters practice martial arts qi, which is just a kind of energy produced by the human body through diet.
Martial arts practitioners store this kind of martial arts energy in their Dantian through practice, which is very similar to the practice of cultivators. But compared with the five elements spiritual energy cultivated by cultivators, the so-called martial arts true energy is not worth mentioning at all, and its power is too weak.
Before Huang Shengzong's disciples can practice cultivation techniques, they must practice martial arts secrets and pass assessments. Huang Shengzong's minimum requirement for his disciples' assessment is to reach the so-called innate martial arts level and become what secular martial arts people call an innate master.
The reason why Huang Shengzong let his disciples practice secular martial arts was because the cultivators did not have many attack methods in the early stage. The weapon attacks most commonly used by cultivators cannot be performed until the sixth level of Qi training. Although Liu Yu has a magical weapon "Red Wood Sword" in his hand, his cultivation level is only at the fifth level of Qi training. He cannot attack with weapons and can only hold it in his hand. Use it as an ordinary weapon.
When talking about spells, many spells cannot be practiced by cultivators in the early stages. Even the spells that can be practiced are too many as auxiliary spells and only a few attack spells. The casting speed is also slow and it is difficult to hit the target.
For example, Liu Yu is currently practicing at the fifth level of Qi cultivation. Most of the spells he practices are auxiliary spells, such as "Wood Qi Nourishing Technique" and "Wind Control Technique", but not a single offensive spell. There is also a defensive spell "Spirit Wood Shield", which consumes one's own spiritual energy when cast, forming an elliptical shield to protect the body.
Therefore, major sects in the world of cultivation will let new disciples practice secular martial arts as a means of defense in the early stages of practice.
The world's first-rate masters advance to innate status simply by forcibly absorbing a trace of the Five Elements spiritual energy between heaven and earth through their own strong martial arts energy, and imprisoning it in their Dantian. When facing the enemy, use the martial arts energy mixed with the spiritual energy of the five elements to increase the power of the martial arts energy.
Because the mortal body does not contain spiritual roots, the Dantian cannot store the Five Elements spiritual energy. Therefore, these ordinary innate masters have very little Five Elements spiritual energy trapped in the Dantian. Moreover, it is very dangerous for these worldly innate masters to imprison the Five Elements Spiritual Energy for the first time. Once they fail, it will cause great harm to the body.
In the mild case, the Dantian is damaged, all martial arts skills are lost, and the person can no longer practice martial arts and becomes a sickly ordinary person. Those who are seriously injured will lose their lives. Even if they do not die on the spot, they will definitely be seriously ill and will not have much time left.
Compared with ordinary people, it is very easy for cultivators with spiritual roots to become innate masters without any danger. For cultivators, becoming an innate master is nothing more than laying the foundation for future practice.
In his early years, Liu Yu practiced three martial arts in Huangsheng Mountain: "Ladder to Heaven", "True Yuan Heart Technique", and "Nine-Step Life-Destroying Sword".
"Ladder to Heaven" is a martial arts light skill. Liu Yu now uses his spiritual energy to perform this light function and rise hundreds of feet in the air.
"Zhen Yuan Xin Dharma" is a sect martial arts Xin Dharma. Liu Yu has stopped practicing this secular martial arts Xin Dharma and now practices the "Huangmu Peiyuan Gong".
"Nine Steps of the Deadly Sword" is a sword technique from the sect's martial arts. This sword technique is extremely fast and vicious. There are only nine sword skills, one move at a time, and each move can kill you. With Liu Yu's cultivation at the fifth level of Qi training, this sword technique is even more bizarre. Not to mention the innate masters in the world, it is difficult for other cultivators who are also at the fifth level of Qi training to parry, so Liu Yu answered without thinking.
"Yu'er, are you really so sure?" Liu Qing didn't believe the answer.
"Dad, I'm not exaggerating. What happened at home?" Liu Yu asked her own question.
"If this is the case, I have to ask you a favor." Liu Qing told Liu Yu in detail the tragedy that had happened to the "Liuyun Escort Bureau".
"Dad, are you asking your child to avenge his uncles?" After listening to this, Liu Yu couldn't help but think of what she heard at the tea shop when she passed Mahu Mountain when she went home.
He thought to himself: "If I had come back a few days earlier, I might have met the "Liuyun Escort Agency" in Mahu Mountain, and several relatives would not have been killed."
"Yu'er, our Liu family must avenge this." Liu Qing said with sharp eyes and grief.
"Dad, don't worry, the child will never let that thief go." Liu Yu couldn't help but feel anger welling up in her heart when she saw her father was so sad.
Then the father and son chatted for a long time, until the fifth hour of the morning, when Liu Qing went back to his room to rest.
