Half an hour later, in the main hall below the north gate tower.
As soon as Su Yang stepped out of the secret chamber, the sound of his personal guards' footsteps came from outside the hall, and they immediately reported in a low voice: "General, Li Lie requests an audience."
"Let him in."
The palace doors opened slightly, and Li Lie, dressed in simple clothes, entered. The unhealed wound on his shoulder caused him to sway slightly, but he remained as straight as a spear. He walked straight to Su Yang's desk, holding a stack of yellowed hemp paper in his hands. The ink on the paper was still fresh, indicating that it had been written on recently.
"General Su, this is the foundation for my survival and livelihood, written by my own hand—the mental manual of the 'Red Sun Returning to Origin Technique'."
Before Su Yang could speak, Li Lie presented the hemp paper with both hands, his expression solemn and his voice hoarse, saying, "This skill is a secret of my family, the true Pure Yang righteous path, which has never been revealed before. Today, I have written it all down and present it to the general."
A genuine look of surprise flashed across Su Yang's eyes.
Although he had anticipated that Li Lie would pledge allegiance, he had not expected the other party to be so decisive, not only willing to offer up his family's secret techniques, but also personally writing them down and presenting them to him.
He reached out and took the hemp paper, his fingertips touching the still slightly warm ink. He looked up at Li Lie and asked, "General Li, what is this—"
"Now, besides my remaining life and my family waiting to be rescued outside the city, I have nothing left."
Li Lie lowered his eyes, his tone revealing an indescribable despair, yet also a resolute determination: "This merit should be offered to a wise ruler, so as not to dishonor our ancestors. I have no other request, only that the general keep his promise and protect my family."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice, "In addition—I have not requested to be stationed at the arrow tower on the front line of the northern city."
"If Du Fuwei comes again, this humble general is willing to serve as your vanguard, and with this Fiery Cloud Spear, settle the score for what happened in the past!"
Su Yang looked at Li Lie, who was kneeling on one knee with a resolute look in his eyes, and noticed the blood-soaked strip of cloth on his shoulder. He instantly understood—this was a desperate act of loyalty by a valiant general who was risking everything.
He stepped forward, reached out and steadily helped Li Lie up, feeling the tension and slight tremor in the other's arm, and said in a deep voice, "General Li, I accept your kindness. From now on, you are my comrade-in-arms, fighting alongside me!"
After speaking, he looked at the hemp paper, his gaze sweeping over the four characters "Chiyang Guiyuan," and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about your family, Sun Wang has already led elite troops to pick them up. I've approved your guarding of the front-line arrow tower, but you need to recover from your injuries first—in Beicheng, we never let the wounded be at the forefront."
Li Lie paused, his surging emotions gradually subsiding. He nodded emphatically and clasped his hands in a fist salute: "This subordinate obeys! I will certainly not fail the general's trust!"
After Li Lie received his medicine and went to the barracks with his personal guards to recuperate, Su Yang sat back down at his desk and carefully perused the "Red Sun Returning to Origin Technique." He studied it intently, memorizing the key points of the technique word by word, and pondering the circulation of pure Yang energy.

Fifteen minutes later, the panel in his mind flashed.
"It's on the display panel!"
Seeing the panel flash, Su Yang's eyes lit up with surprise.
Once the panel is on, everything will be fine.
[The internal martial arts technique "Red Sun Returning to Origin" has been discovered. It can be simplified by consuming 150 simplification points. Yes/No?]
Just then, the panel flashed again.
"simplify!"
Su Yang immediately realized this.
You have consumed 150 Simplification Points to simplify the Crimson Sun Returning to Origin Technique. Simplification in progress... Simplification successful... Crimson Sun Returning to Origin Technique =
Sunbathing and warming yourself by the fire!
"Sunbathing and warming yourself by the fire?" Su Yang's eyes lit up when he saw the simplified result. Sunbathing was so easy!
Thinking of this, he looked up at the daylight outside the palace and could no longer restrain himself.
It's broad daylight now, the sun is high in the sky, isn't this the perfect time for cultivation?
Su Yang immediately put away the hemp paper, strode out of the main hall, and headed straight for the arrow tower in the north city.
The top of the arrow tower is open and unobstructed, and under the clear blue sky, the golden sunlight shines down on you without reservation, and the warmth instantly soaks into your clothes.
Su Yang simply opened his shirt, letting the sunlight cover his limbs and bones.
[Red Sun Returning to Origin Technique Proficiency +1!]
【Red Sun Returning to Origin Technique (Beginner Level 1/1500)】
Su Yang stood on the arrow tower. Just five breaths later, the Chi Yang Gui Yuan Gong on the panel jumped up.
"Five breaths to increase proficiency by one point?"
Su Yang looked at the simplified panel, a slight smile playing on his lips. Just as he was about to marvel at the efficiency, he suddenly felt the warmth around him intensify. It turned out that the clouds had dispersed and the sun was shining down!
"Hmm! Does getting more skilled increase faster when the sun is brighter?"
Su Yang suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with surprise.
He discovered that normally sunlight would only increase by one point every five breaths, but now, under the blazing sun, it was compressed to one point every three breaths!
This Crimson Sun Returning to Origin Technique is exactly the same as the Bright Moon Heart Method, both relying on the rich power corresponding to celestial phenomena to accelerate progress.
This cultivation speed is much faster than meditation and breathing exercises!
He simply relaxed his whole body, letting the pure heat of the sun seep into his body through his skin pores, while his mind kept flashing with the increasing proficiency.
Before we knew it, more than half an hour had passed, and the blazing sun still hung high in the sky, its warmth undiminished.
Just as Su Yang felt the heat around him growing stronger, he suddenly realized that the scattered solar heat within his body was spontaneously surging, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, all converging towards the Guanyuan acupoint three inches below his navel!
The heat gathered was getting stronger and stronger. First, a feeling of soreness and swelling came from the Guanyuan acupoint, followed by a clear sense of "expansion"—the originally narrow acupoint space was actually stretched and widened by this pure yang heat!
All the pure Yang energy converges at the Guanyuan acupoint, which undergoes a transformation and becomes a new Qi Sea!
at the same time.
A soft golden light suddenly burst forth from the panel: [Crimson Sun Returning to Origin Technique (Beginner 1/7500)]
"It's done! The embryonic form of the Qi Sea is complete!"
"My fifth Qi Sea is complete. From now on, it will be the Crimson Sun Qi Sea!"
Su Yang suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze flashing with a sharp light.
He clearly sensed that the Guanyuan acupoint had transformed into a warm and expansive inner sea, which was the Chiyang Qi Sea. Floating within it was a wisp of Chiyang True Qi as thin as a hair, as condensed and warm as a spark.
"Excellent! The Crimson Sun Qi Sea and the Bright Moon Qi Sea, one Yin and one Yang, are a perfect match!"
He was ecstatic.
This Crimson Yang Qi Sea is the core of cultivation. It can not only hold true qi, but also strengthen the kidneys and consolidate the foundation. In the future, absorbing pure yang power can strengthen true qi and enhance combat power. He raised his hand and pressed it on the Crimson Yang Qi Sea in his lower abdomen. He could clearly feel the pulsation of true qi in the Qi Sea and the broad outline of the Qi Sea.
Just now.
A soldier quickly climbed the watchtower, knelt on one knee, and held up a letter with both hands, whispering, "General, a secret letter has arrived!"
Su Yang's eyes narrowed, he concealed his aura, and reached out to take the letter.
Unfolding the yellowed letter, one sees delicate yet sharp handwriting, unique to Dugu Feng. The letter clearly states: "The Yuwen Clan has dispatched the 'Ice Fiend Twin Tigers' southward, to arrive in Jingling within three days."
"The Twin Tigers of Ice and Fire?"
Su Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, his fingertips tracing the edge of the letter.
He knew that Yuwen Zhuo had been killed by him, yet the Yuwen clan still dared to send these two men, which meant that their strength was absolutely not to be underestimated.
However, Su Yang knew that he had now mastered the Bright Moon Heart Technique and achieved minor mastery of the Snow-Treading Without a Trace Technique, resulting in a surge in his strength.
With a thought, the Great Perfection Bright Moon Heart Technique was activated, causing the Bright Moon Qi Sea to boil. A surge of icy true energy flowed throughout his body, seemingly freezing the surrounding air. The Cold Abyss Blade at his waist hummed and trembled slightly, as if sensing its master's fighting spirit and eagerly wanting to be drawn.
He then shifted his feet, unleashing the "Snow-Treading Without a Trace" technique. With a light touch of his toes on the edge of the watchtower, he leaped down like a bullet, tracing a graceful arc across the city wall before landing silently, like a leaf touching the ground.
Su Yang stood beneath the north city wall, his Cold Abyss Blade unsheathed, its chilling light reflecting off his cold, sharp eyes.
Haoyue poured all his inner strength into the Hanyuan Blade, and instantly a chilling white light, Haoyue Blade Qi, condensed on the blade!
Compared to the two-zhang sword aura condensed when the mental cultivation technique was at its minor completion, the Bright Moon mental cultivation technique was now at its major completion. The true qi in the Bright Moon Qi Sea surged, and with the added support of the cold attribute of the Cold Abyss Blade, the sword aura surged to more than four zhang, becoming even more refined and condensed!
With a flick of his arm, the Cold Abyss Blade unleashed a streak of cold light, and a four-zhang-long icy blade aura crashed down towards the moat not far away!
"Swoosh! Boom!"
The moat was instantly churned up with enormous waves!
Water spray several meters high shot into the sky, then condensed into ice crystals under the influence of the icy true energy, scattering like hailstones, and the river surface instantly froze into a crystal-clear layer of ice.
"What terrifying sword energy! Frosty sword energy! No wonder you're a general!"
"With our general here, what is there to fear from the Jianghuai army?!"
"The general is incredibly powerful!"
The guards on the city wall were all dumbfounded by what they saw, and they all gasped in shock. Then, their eyes filled with intense shock and ecstasy, and their morale became even stronger.
"With the minor mastery of 'Treading Snow Without a Trace' and the major mastery of 'Bright Moon Heart Sutra,' coupled with the Cold Abyss Blade, my strength has greatly increased, making me more than capable of dealing with the Ice Fiend Twin Tigers!" Su Yang sheathed his blade, feeling the still abundant internal energy within his Bright Moon Qi Sea, and thought to himself.
