Rashomon's Ultimate Technique: Comprehension Strike!

Ying Changqing smiled and reached out to gently touch her face.

"Sweetie, I'm going to Rashomon first. I want to see what it's like inside."

After speaking, Ying Changqing stood up, placed his hands on the bronze giant door, and slowly poured his inner strength into it.

This massive bronze gate combines Yin-Yang principles with mechanical design.

"Clang, clang, clang."

When internal force is injected, the mechanism makes a turning sound.

The heavy bronze gate slowly opened.

Ying Changqing finally saw the scene inside Luoshengtang.

Nothingness, darkness, starry sky...

Luo Shengtang was more magnificent than any building Ying Changqing had ever seen, and even the Illusionary Star Tower could not compare to it.

There are no bookshelves here.

There was only a circular platform engraved with Yin-Yang runes; the rest of the area was endless darkness.

In the depths of darkness, the stars twinkle.

Ying Changqing suddenly felt his sleeve being tugged.

He looked down and saw Shao Siming follow him in, and she was very scared, so she grabbed his sleeve.

Ying Changqing did not break free because he knew that Shao Siming's identity was different from his own.

Ying Changqing is the deputy head of the Yin-Yang School, but his true identity is a prince of the Qin Empire, and even Donghuang Taiyi cannot order him around.

This is why he always encounters trouble whenever he enters Rashomon.

But Shao Siming is different.

She is an elder of the Yin-Yang School, and Donghuang Taiyi believes that she would never betray the Yin-Yang School.

Donghuang Taiyi allowed her to enter Luosheng Hall.

Ying Changqing stopped looking at the curious Shao Siming and began searching for the secret manuals and forbidden techniques of the Yin Yang School.

Suddenly, the golden runes lit up.

A book, seemingly out of thin air, appeared like a dream.

Ying Changqing saw the Soul Dragon Soaring Technique and the Sealing Spell Seal that he had already learned.

They also discovered unlearned martial arts techniques.

Forbidden Gu techniques such as Gathering Qi into a Blade, Cold Moon Twin Souls, Corpse God Curse Gu, and Six Souls Terror Curse.

Ying Changqing immediately took out an ancient book that recorded the process of gathering qi into a blade.

Gathering Qi into a blade is the signature technique of the Yin-Yang School.

Users can concentrate their inner energy in their palms, forming a glowing blade that they can then forcefully strike at their enemies.

This move is extremely powerful; for every 10% increase in power, the power of the air blade doubles.

A blade of air with 40% power is incredibly powerful.

Xinghun once used this move against Gai Nie.

The combined power of two hands striking with 80% of their strength is sixteen times more powerful than a single-handed attack.

Xinghun himself has limitations, otherwise Gai Nie would not have been able to withstand him.

This move is incredibly powerful.

Simple reading.

Ying Changqing has completely mastered the two forms of the Yin-Yang technique of gathering Qi into a blade: a single-handed Qi blade and a double-handed Qi blade.

One-handed air blade form.

The caster concentrated their inner energy into one hand, forming a pale purple energy blade.

This air blade is as sharp as a knife.

The dual-wielding air blade form requires simultaneously channeling internal energy into both hands.

This form consumes more internal energy, but its power is doubled.

For example, when using 40% of one's internal force, the power can reach eight times that of the single-handed form.

Both forms can transform the air blade into sword beams for long-range attacks.

The power of gathering energy into a blade is immense; when used with both hands at full strength, the attack power can be increased twentyfold.

However, this skill has a fatal flaw.

If a cultivator's foundation is unstable but they forcibly attempt to activate a higher level of Qi gathering into a blade, it will cause their true essence to become disordered, ultimately turning them into a mindless walking corpse who only knows how to kill.

However, this concern was insignificant to Ying Changqing.

Although he has now reached the level of a terrestrial immortal, he still cannot fully integrate the full power of his hands into the Qi-gathering blade.

However, Ying Changqing firmly believed that once he grasped the true essence of the technique, the hidden danger of gathering qi into a blade would be easily resolved.

When Ying Changqing had fully grasped the essence of gathering qi into a blade, he slowly opened his palm.

In an instant, the manual transformed into countless points of light, vanishing without a trace like fireflies.

Ying Changqing then sat cross-legged on the round platform, his mind as clear as a mirror.

In just a moment, an invisible, pale purple blade of energy quietly condensed in his palm.

What's even more amazing is that as he kept adjusting his technique, the blade of energy kept changing between reality and illusion, sometimes disappearing and sometimes reappearing, taking on countless forms!

Upon witnessing this scene, a look of disbelief and astonishment flashed across Shao Siming's eyes.

"A sudden... epiphany?"

Her tone revealed a rare hint of surprise.

At the same time, he quietly moved to Ying Changqing's side to protect him.

\t……

Just then.

Inside the Central Palace Heavenly Extreme Divine Hall.

Donghuang Taiyi sat opposite a thin, noticeably hunched old man.

Before the two, a virtual image formed by Yin-Yang magic clearly reflected everything that was happening inside Rashomon.

"To enter a state of enlightenment so easily is truly admirable!"

Despite having witnessed it countless times, Donghuang Taiyi still couldn't help but admire Ying Changqing whenever he saw him easily enter a state of enlightenment that was difficult for others to reach.

He immediately focused his mind and asked the old man, "Master Nan, what is your opinion of the Third Prince of the Great Qin Empire?"

When Donghuang Taiyi asked the question, the old man's tone was equally full of surprise.

"Even if the patriarch himself came, he couldn't comprehend it immediately just by reading a single manual like he did."

"Such comprehension can only be described as heaven-defying."

After the old man finished speaking, Donghuang Taiyi nodded in agreement.

If Ying Changqing were present, he would recognize this person immediately.

He was Chu Nan Gong, the foremost sage of the Chu Kingdom and a guest minister of the Yin-Yang School.

Later, he proclaimed the prophecy, "Even if Chu has only three households left, it will surely be Chu that destroys Qin."

Now his hair is completely white, he is old and frail, his back is hunched like a shrimp, and it looks like a gust of wind could blow him over.

But his eyes are very bright, and you can see a mysterious aura that foresees the future.

Donghuang Taiyi was the head of the Yin-Yang School and knew that the old man in front of him had extraordinary abilities.

Donghuang Taiyi is indeed stronger than the old man.

But when it comes to stargazing, divination, and predicting the future, Donghuang Taiyi has to admit defeat.

The two are very different, and Chu Nan Gong also possesses the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book.

The Yellow Stone Book was not written by an ordinary person.

This book is the only way for ordinary people to see the secrets of heaven.

Understanding the contents of the book can grant you immense power to change the course of the world.

The first two owners of the Yellow Stone Book were very famous.

The first one is Ji Xuanyuan, also known as the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, the ancestor of the human race.

The second is Jiang Shang, also known as Taigong, who, according to legend, severed the path to the gods.

The current third master is Chu Nan Gong, the foremost sage of the Chu state.

Donghuang Taiyi summoned Chu Nan Gong back to judge Ying Changqing's future.

Donghuang Taiyi asked, "If the position of sect leader is passed to Ying Changqing, will the Yin-Yang School prosper or decline?"

Chu Nan Gong's pupils shrank as he stared at Donghuang Taiyi and Ying Changqing, his face filled with shock.

He hadn't expected that Donghuang Taiyi had summoned him back for this matter.

Donghuang Taiyi had been in charge of the Yin-Yang School for over a hundred years and had never considered passing the leadership to someone else. Now, however, he was being asked if he could hand over the Yin-Yang School to Ying Changqing. This was highly unusual.

Chu Nan Gong quickly calmed down and said, "This matter is too big for me to decide casually. You should decide for yourself."

Donghuang Taiyi stood up, stood with his hands behind his back, stared at everything in Luosheng Hall, and sighed.

"The stars indicate that the Qin Empire's reign will be short-lived, lasting only two generations before it perishes."

After saying that, Donghuang Taiyi shook his head.

"but!"

"When I saw the amazing talent of Ying Changqing, the third prince of Qin, I began to doubt the prophecy of the stars."

"With such an outstanding person as Ying Changqing, how could the Qin Dynasty have perished after only two generations?!"

At this point, Donghuang Taiyi's gaze sharpened as he stared intently at Chu Nan Gong, the foremost sage of the Chu Kingdom.

"I've analyzed Ying Changqing's future, but the results were chaotic and unclear."

"That's why I'm hesitant and need Master Nan to point me in the right direction."

Chu Nan Gong originally intended to brush it off and was unwilling to get involved in the matter.

But Donghuang Taiyi suddenly unleashed a powerful pressure that made Chu Nan Gong unable to breathe.

"Master Nan, you are also aware that the Great Calamity of a Thousand Years is about to arrive, followed by the Eternal Night. This is a great change that has not been seen in a thousand years."

"The Yin-Yang School must make a choice: to adapt to the times and become the leader of the Hundred Schools of Thought, or to be eliminated by history and gradually disappear?"

"This decision concerns the foundation of the Yin-Yang School for five hundred years; it is the most crucial turning point."

"As a guest advisor, Lord Nan can no longer conceal this!"

After Donghuang Taiyi made his stance clear, Chu Nangong could only smile wryly: "Since Your Excellency Donghuang has made it clear, I, who am indebted to the Yin Yang School, will naturally express my stance as well."

After speaking, Chu Nan Gong's expression turned serious.

"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty Donghuang."

Seeing Chu Nan Gong's attitude, Donghuang Taiyi nodded in satisfaction.

Chu Nan Gong's gaze once again fell upon Ying Changqing inside Luo Sheng Tang.

The next second, his white beard moved without wind, and everything inside the Heavenly Palace was affected by an invisible force.

The stars in the sky began to align themselves at a speed visible to the naked eye.

These stars will illuminate Ying Changqing's future across the heavens.

Donghuang Taiyi was soon surprised to find that the celestial phenomena were completely irregular, moving erratically and making it impossible to predict the future.

"Master Nan, can't you deduce it?"

Chu Nan Gong nodded and said, "This person's fate is shrouded in mystery; I cannot see through it."

Chu Nan Gong's voice was weak and his face was pale, clearly indicating that he had overexerted his internal energy.

He should have stopped the deduction.

But he was determined to try, refusing to believe that he couldn't foresee Ying Changqing's future with his own abilities.

"I can't see through your fate!"

Chu Nan Gong shouted sternly, and then quickly took out an ancient bamboo scroll from his bosom.

The bamboo slips are inscribed with the four large characters "Huangshi Heavenly Book".

The bamboo slips slowly unfurled.

Three thousand pale golden characters gushed forth like a waterfall, neatly arranged before Chu Nan Gong.

Chu Nan Gong was enveloped in golden light, and the stars in the sky spun violently in response.

"puff!"

A moment later, Chu Nan Gong suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

He clutched his chest in pain, collapsed to the ground, and stared in horror at Ying Changqing, who was still undergoing enlightenment in the Yin-Yang technique.

Upon seeing this, Donghuang Taiyi immediately stepped forward to help Chu Nan Gong up.

He asked urgently, "Master Nan, what did you see? Why are you so badly injured?"

Chu Nan Gong was deeply shaken. He stared at the figure inside Luo Sheng Tang and exclaimed in surprise.

"Even the Thirty-Six Hexagrams of the Primordial Heaven, personally passed down by Emperor Fuxi, cannot deduce him?!"

"Just who exactly is this Third Prince of the Qin Empire?"

Chu Nan Gong's words caused Donghuang Taiyi's pupils to shrink sharply, his face filled with shock.

"Master Nan, what are you talking about?"

"That's the ultimate divination technique of Emperor Fuxi, how could anyone not be able to deduce it?"

Chu Nan Gong was breathing heavily, and he tried his best to calm himself down.

"Your Majesty, do you think I would lie to you?"

Donghuang Taiyi immediately understood that what Chu Nangong said was true, because he knew Chu Nangong's character very well.

But this only made him look at Ying Changqing with even greater shock.

He couldn't understand it; that was the divination technique of Emperor Fuxi!

"Just who is this third prince of the Qin Empire?"

Donghuang Taiyi sighed in the temple, but no one understood what he meant.

The Heavenly Palace in the Central Palace suddenly fell silent.

"Your Majesty, this matter must be discussed carefully."

"This Young Master Ying Changqing is more difficult to deal with than we thought."

Just then, Ying Changqing in Luoshengtang opened his eyes.

He directly controlled the power of the stars, the trajectory of destiny, and the laws of heaven, completely concealing his heavenly secrets!

"Huh? Someone's plotting against me?"

Ying Changqing suddenly felt a force controlling his destiny star, trying to peek into his future.

At first, I didn't pay much attention because his destiny star is not something that can be moved easily.

But suddenly, a golden pressure appeared out of nowhere.

This force was extremely powerful, and Ying Changqing immediately countered with the Great Dao Unity True Technique and other Heavenly Dao Laws.

Protected by Ying Changqing's power of law, the golden energy was completely destroyed.

Ying Changqing learned the art of concealing the secrets of heaven, so that no one could predict his fate in the future.

Even if someone used that golden power to calculate him, the result would only be chaos.

Although he was certain that the other party could not see his future, Ying Changqing was still curious about who was secretly calculating his future.

"Is it someone from Liyang trying to scheme against me?"

Ying Changqing's first thought was of Li Yang, because he had killed Li Yang's ancestor, and Li Yang would definitely retaliate.

But Ying Changqing quickly stopped caring.

After all, even Zhao Huangchao, the ancestor of the Liyang royal family, had been defeated by him. Ying Changqing couldn't imagine who else in Liyang could threaten him.

As long as he doesn't enter Tai'an City and doesn't encounter that young eunuch connected to the dragon vein of Liyang, the Liyang royal family can't do anything to him.

So Ying Changqing stopped worrying and focused on studying the new technique he had just comprehended through gathering qi into a blade.

[By refining Qi, you can create life. You will comprehend the art of gathering Qi into a blade and comprehend the laws of Heaven: Qi Refining Technique: Slaying Heaven!]

"Sword of Heaven-Slaying, draw!"

Ying Changqing chanted softly, and a three-foot-long, pale purple, almost transparent, ancient longsword immediately appeared in his right hand, formed by the art of Qi refining.

He looked at the Heaven-Slaying Sword and nodded in satisfaction.

Gathering energy into a blade is only one technique; the blade cannot last, it disappears after use, and its power cannot be increased.

Therefore, Ying Changqing retained the three characteristics of gathering qi into a blade.

By transforming qi into a sword, imbuing it with its own sword aura, and doubling its power when both hands are used together, this Heaven-Slaying Sword was created.

The inspiration for the Zhutian Sword comes from the Zhutian Divine Sword of the Great Sword Master Ziyu in Ying Changqing's previous life's novel, "Wu Geng Ji".

Ying Changqing meticulously crafted and forged this unique Qi-forged sword.

This Heaven-Slaying Sword is currently only in its initial form, and its power has not yet been fully unleashed.

But its greatest value lies in its unlimited growth potential.

The Zhutian Sword embryo is currently located in Ying Changqing's dantian.

Ying Changqing can temper this sword with his will.

With continuous refinement, its power will increase over time, eventually surpassing all physical swords.

The essence of the Heaven-Slaying Sword is the method of refining Qi.

Therefore, Ying Changqing was able to fuse it with a physical sword, achieving the unity of two swords.

For example, when Ying Changqing wields the Water-Cold Sword, he can attach the Heaven-Slaying Sword to it and simultaneously unleash the Water-Cold Sword's freezing effect and the Heaven-Slaying Sword's sharp sword light.

Furthermore, if Ying Changqing holds the sword with both hands and pours all his internal energy into it, the power of the Zhutian Sword will increase dozens of times.
