Chapter 170: Chapter 151: One Generation Ahead, Research and Development One Generation, Self-Education One Generation, True Transmission One Generation, Broad Transmission One Generation!

"Does Palace Master Yan really want to widely spread ’Xingyi Boxing’?"

Back inside the room, Wang Kuan still couldn’t believe it.

Yan Chuan nodded: "’Xingyi Boxing’ comes from the Hundred Schools Boxing, and naturally, it should return to the Hundred Schools Boxing. I established the ’Hundred Flower Palace’ precisely to study boxing with fellow Jianghu comrades."

Xingyi Boxing!

No need to hide!

Besides, this is merely the third-to-last tier boxing in the ’Derivation Skill’ system. Even if it were a higher tier, and even if thousands upon thousands practiced the boxing and martial arts I created, Yan Chuan believed he could still take the lead—

Creating my own style is one aspect!

Mutual teaching and learning is the second!

With these two foundations, if Yan Chuan couldn’t surpass others in ’Xingyi Boxing’, he might as well go crash into a wall!

Of course.

The best method is actually like the technological products and military equipment from my previous life—

Explore one generation, pre-research one generation, develop one generation, and equip one generation!

This is the most appropriate approach.

For Yan Chuan, it should be—

Ahead by one generation!

Develop one generation!

Self-cultivate one generation!

Transmit one generation!

Widely spread one generation!

Separate the self-created martial arts into five tiers and five stages, always staying far ahead.

To elaborate—

Being ahead of one generation means planning for some ’Ji Level’ or even higher martial arts in advance, ready to be added to the development schedule at any time!

Develop one generation, meaning to establish the ’Derivation Skill’ task to develop martial arts more advanced than those he currently practices. For example, at present, the ’Geng Level’ ’Yijinjing’. This aims upward. Meanwhile, continuing development of martial arts at the same level as ’Xingyi Boxing’, or slightly exceeding it by a margin, can expand Yan Chuan’s breadth, making tasks easier to complete and allowing him to gain more ’Experience’ and ’Spiritual’ insight, enhancing the ’Purple Mist Palace’ and fortifying more treasures.

Self-cultivate one generation, such as ’Xingyi Boxing’ and ’Mixed Element Skill’. These are currently Yan Chuan’s highest developed martial arts. He can first cultivate them himself, so others would find it hard to understand or counter him.

Transmit one generation, such as ’Divine Movement Transformation’ and ’Flowers Mistake Fist’, can be taught to disciples like Yu Jinpeng, Jin Yutang, and Wei Quan.

Widely spread one generation, those which are of lower importance, like ’Six Harmonies Eight Techniques Fist’, ’Five Forms Eight Techniques Fist’, and ’Five Animals Qigong’, which have become outdated and no longer important, need not be kept secret.

This way, one can always maintain a leading position, with the core martial arts and secrets known only to oneself, reducing the risk of being targeted by others.

Going forward.

As the martial arts being developed become more high-level and exquisite, Yan Chuan intends to operate this way.

As for the immediate—

First, the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion’ is imminent, and Yan Chuan urgently needs to enhance his strength.

Second, the ’Hundred Flower Palace’ is newly founded. Besides ’pointing and nudging’, Yan Chuan also needs a ’publicity point’, a ’boom’ to attract more Jianghu experts, and ’Xingyi Boxing’, as well as widely spreading ’Xingyi Boxing’, is this publicity point, the biggest explosion.

Both in the short term!

And in the long term!

In any case, widely spreading Xingyi Boxing, at the moment, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Moreover—

"At my speed of developing martial arts, before others thoroughly grasp ’Xingyi Boxing’, I may have already finished developing ’Yijinjing’."

By then, if people try to use the approach of ’Xingyi Boxing’ against Yan Chuan, it will backfire.

In a word!

Yan Chuan updates too fast!

The current development cycle is short!

Widely spreading Xingyi is harmless!

...

"What great courage!"

"What a grand vision!"

Jian Rong exclaimed.

Reflecting on it, if it were her, having created such an invincible boxing skill like ’Xingyi Boxing’ without establishing her own advantage, she would certainly be reluctant to pass it on.

But Yan Chuan—

Created the boxing skill three days ago!

And on the fourth day, he wants to widely spread it!

This courage!

This vision!

Unparalleled!

Both Jian Rong and Wang Kuan were impressed and were full of anticipation for tomorrow’s ’Xingyi Boxing’.

But before that.

Before ’Xingyi Boxing’, what they were even more concerned about was Yan Chuan’s choice after breaking the limit—

"After breaking the limit, sinews, bones, skin, and membrane."

"Palace Master Yan has killed numerous limit-breakers so must be familiar with it. I’m curious about where he plans to start from now on?"

Wang Kuan was curious and looked at Yan Chuan.

Qi-Blood limit!

Breaking the limit of Qi-Blood!

Qi-Blood refining!

The realm that once seemed distant for Yan Chuan was now underfoot, finally reaching the ’Qi-Blood Refining’ step. After much understanding, Yan Chuan had long chosen his direction: "Bone training, with bones hard as iron and Qi-Blood like a rainbow. I practice ’Xingyi Boxing’, excelling in short strikes and direct attacks, advancing while attacking, attacking while advancing, like a river breaking its banks, so ’Bone Training’ comes first!"

If you want to go head-to-head?

Then choose ’Bone Training’, there’s no mistake!

However, Yan Chuan chose ’Bone Training’ not just because of ’Xingyi Boxing’, but also due to ’Mutual Teaching and Learning’: "In the future, the number of Limit Extreme Martial Artists who will achieve sudden enlightenment under my guidance should be substantial. By training bone and developing ’Bone Energy’, I won’t have to rely on others, as I’ll be able to help them break through, keeping the gratitude of guidance and breakthrough to myself!"

This is certainly beneficial!

Bone training is a must!

"Bone training!"

"Bone training is the most difficult!"

Wang Kuan sighed.

Jian Rong also said: "Actually, the overall difficulty of tempering sinew, bone, skin, and membrane is about the same. However, the human body has 485 sinews, 639 muscles, but only 206 bones. Brother Wang can temper one sinew in three months, and I can temper one muscle in two months, but for your bone training, it might take seven or even eight months to temper a single bone. The long duration without seeing concrete progress and feeling no improvement can be quite torturous for the martial artist. Over time, it inevitably wears down one’s spirit, which is why ’Bone Trainers’ often stagnate earlier, due to this very reason."

This is a simple math problem and a simple psychological one.

Yan Chuan understood the intention of the two elders, but he was not afraid.

"You indeed have nothing to fear."

Jian Rong smiled and said: "With your use of ’Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound Technique’ to break the limit, while others need seven months to refine a bone, you might only need four months or even three. Coupled with resources found in the Mountain and Sea Realm, refining one bone per month is possible, allowing continuous progress without worrying about the wear of spirit."

Spirit wear!

This results from being frustrated by the long-term lack of progress in cultivation, seeing no hope, and being worn down by the slow process.

Wang Kuan might be affected!

Jian Rong might be affected!

But Yan Chuan will not.

The premise is—

"Resources!"

"Sufficient cultivation resources!"

...

During some idle chit-chat, Wang Kuan and Jian Rong eventually revealed their true intentions—

"Previously, we discovered a portal prototype in a cave. With Palace Master Yan at the helm, decisions on when to enter and exit rest on your judgment. Still, Brother Wang and I have an idea we won’t hide from Palace Master Yan, to avoid unnecessary suspicion." The two evidently discussed it beforehand. Jian Rong candidly spoke to Yan Chuan: "We found a small Xuan Tie Ore vein over there. ’Xuan Tie’ is the mainstream material for crafting surprise weapons and is quite valuable. But even more valuable are the Black Flame Stones accompanied by such ore veins, a peculiar ore. It contains pure Essence Energy, and when held or carried, it’s like water flowing downward, allowing ’Essence Energy’ to naturally flow from the ’Black Flame Stone’ and be absorbed by the human body, thus accelerating cultivation progress. This is a top-level cultivation resource and a hard currency anywhere, with a market price of one thousand taels per pound."

"Xuan Tie Ore?"

"Black Flame Stone?"

Yan Chuan remembered that Xun Guilan’s ’Mountain and Sea Record’ indeed mentioned the ’Black Flame Stone’. This item, containing ’Essence Energy’, is also known as ’Essence Stone’, and is a rare treasure of the world, with astounding value.

And that Wang Kuan and Jian Rong actually knew a vein of Xuan Tie Ore?

This is a treasure!

Its value is immeasurable!

If such news spreads in Great Yan or the Mountain and Sea Realm, it would likely cause a bloody storm!

Why haven’t they plotted this treasure themselves?

"To be honest."

"It’s because the Academy Star Gate’s commission is too hard to bear."

Wang Kuan smiled bitterly.

The ’Xuan Tie Ore’ was occupied by the Alien Race. Wang Kuan and Jian Rong wanted to sneak in and find the ’Black Flame Stone’, which required considerable time and effort and posed significant danger.

Even if successful and they managed to obtain a few pounds of Black Flame Stone, as soon as they passed through the Star Gate, they’d lose 45% to the court, or 450 taels per pound.

Who wouldn’t feel the pain?

As for burying the ’Black Flame Stone’ in the Mountain and Sea Realm and retrieving it next time without passing through the Star Gate, that’s also not feasible.

Once separated from its original vein, the ’Essence Energy’ within ’Black Flame Stone’ slowly dissipates, detectable by both humans and beasts in the vicinity, making it difficult to hide.

This is one point.

Another point is that while ’Essence Energy’ from ’Black Flame Stone’ continues to dissipate, after exiting the ’Academy Star Gate’, the cooldown to re-enter is at least two months.

In two months, the ’Essence Energy’ within the ’Black Flame Stone’ would have already dispersed completely, rendering it useless, making it worse than surrendering a share to the court!

"All in all!"

"Over there, other items like ore, materials, and herbs can only be sold to the court in exchange for suitable cultivation resources, and this necessitates taking them out, thus incurring commission."

"For instance, gorilla grass, which is the main ingredient for refining Dragon Tiger Great Pill. The Dragon Tiger Great Pill is precious, but only the court holds the recipe. If we obtain gorilla grass, it’s useless, leaving us only to exchange it with the court for secret medicine and other resources. A commission of 45%, and another layer of exploitation from transactions, is unbearable!"

"As for something like ’Black Flame Stone’, the court controls the ’Star Gate’ and imposes many restrictions, if not entirely preventing it, at least making it inconvenient and difficult to bypass."

Jian Rong also smiled wryly.

One can’t blame them for being calculative!

For, indeed, the path of cultivation is not easy. Inner Court Elders at the Martial Arts Academy like them find it challenging to obtain more cultivation resources, unwilling to lose layer upon layer.

Hence.

They have kept it hidden, not daring to act recklessly.

Until this time, discovering a wild ’Star Gate Prototype’ in Suanzao Mountain, they saw an opportunity, finally having a channel to bypass the court’s ’tax’!

Star Gate Prototype!

This is the top tool for tax evasion!

From this point, one can also see the true value of ’Star Stone’!
