In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

However, a hint later suggests that the ethereal energy of the Nine Yang Divine Skill can be used as a substitute, achieving a healing effect far exceeding that of the One Yang Finger!

Chapter 460 Passing on Divine Skills: Li Mochou Enters the Blood Droplets

"The Eighth Level of the Nine Yin Manual?!"

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the Hu sisters in front of him. Unlike Hongxiao and Jiangxue, they were his childhood companions.

Zhang Xiaoshan left behind two Hu women not only because of their unparalleled charm, but also because he valued their legwork skills. After observing them over the years, he felt he could at least completely trust them.

"I've been having you practice leg techniques all along, from Tan Leg, Lianhuan Chuanxin Leg, and Ruyi Yuanyang Leg. Now you've all mastered them to a high level."

As for internal energy cultivation, your speed in practicing the Nine Yin Divine Skill is considered slow.

However, the reason I didn't teach you the profound secret techniques before is because the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill is extremely yin and evil. Without profound internal strength and a calm and inactive Dao heart, you will inevitably be devoured by the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill.

Now that you've reached the eighth level of the Nine Yin Manual, coupled with the foundation you've honed over the past ten years, cultivating the Heavenly Crippled Divine Art is like adding wings to a tiger!

"Thank you for your guidance, young master!"

Upon hearing that Zhang Xiaoshan was going to teach them the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill, the two Hu women were filled with excitement.

Having lived in the Central Plains for many years, they naturally knew the supreme martial art of the Nine Provinces Leg Techniques—the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill. However, they did not expect that their previous cultivation had been laying the foundation for this ultimate skill with the "three-two-three" method.

But considering how Zhang Xiaoshan treated them, which of them did he mistreat?

The only drawback is that Zhang Xiaoshan has too many women around him.

However, they knew that the stronger they were by Zhang Xiaoshan's side, the more important they would be.

Having cultivated the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill, they would naturally become Zhang Xiaoshan's right-hand men, the strongest henchmen and assassins, even surpassing Liu Sheng Piaoxu in strength.

"This is the Heaven-Defying Force; first, cultivate the mental technique."

As for leg techniques? I will personally teach them to you in three days. Moreover, to cultivate the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill, you need to strengthen your Qi and blood first.

The reason I didn't give you the precious medicine to strengthen your qi and blood before was because if you ate it and couldn't digest it, it would accumulate in your body and you would inevitably become fat old ladies.

The Heavenly Cripple Divine Skill is different; each time you practice the leg techniques, you can increase your leg strength and refine your qi and blood.

With your legwork skills now in place, you'll need plenty of precious medicines.

"Yes!"

The two orchid girls shuddered at the thought of the obese old woman.

"Alright, spend this time cultivating your inner power."

Also, never let the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead leave your side. Your mental states haven't yet reached the required standard, and the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead can suppress the evil energy within you. Once you reach the peak of the eighth level, I will take you into my room, and you will then break through to the ninth level of the mental cultivation technique.

"Is the young master really willing to take us into his room?"

The two women are now thirty years old. In the past, thirty was considered an age when no one wanted them.

But even after cultivating the Nine Yin Internal Skill, the Bright Jade Skill, and finally the Nine Yin Divine Skill, they still maintained their most beautiful youth, even living a life here that seemed like paradise. But ultimately, they were still women.

From the moment An Shigeng sent them away, they became Zhang Xiaoshan's women.

However, Zhang Xiaoshan has not touched them all these years.

Initially, it was because Zhang Xiaoshan didn't want to break their primordial yin bodies and cut off their path of cultivation.

After all, they had no foundation in internal energy cultivation before. If their primordial yin energy were to break, even with the Yi Jin Duan Gu technique, their cultivation speed would be much slower than it is now.

Later, Zhang Xiaoshan gave them the opportunity to break through their bottlenecks, such as breaking through from the eighth level peak to the ninth level.

This is the difference between a top-tier master and a peerless master!

Moreover, they also have the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill waiting for them.

"You should be clear about my previous intentions."

The reason I didn't take your primordial yin bodies is because I was afraid it would affect your cultivation speed. Even at the peak of the eighth level, with the help of the Heavenly Cripple Reversal Force, it would still take at least three years.

Moreover, apart from Piaoxu's talent, none of you can break through to the ninth level peak on your own!

Furthermore, after cultivating the Heavenly Crippled Divine Art, the malevolent energy within you will surge, requiring special methods to neutralize it; otherwise, you'll become the next Mei Chaofeng!

"Don't worry, young master!"

Three years!

Compared to the previous uncertainty, the two sisters were filled with anticipation and joy.

Moreover, these three years will also be a period of rapid improvement in their strength. With the domineering power of the Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill, they can definitely become Zhang Xiaoshan's right-hand men.

After watching the two women leave, Zhang Xiaoshan called Li Mochou over.

Li Mochou's cultivation speed is far superior to that of the Hu sisters, who have remained at the seventh level for many years and only managed to break through by relying on the gall of the medicinal snake.

Li Mochou originally relied on the power of the dragon fish blood to enter the seventh level of the Nine Yin Divine Skill. Now she has made some progress and entered the mid-stage of the seventh level. At most, she will be able to enter the late stage of the seventh level in three years.

And this is without any resource support.

Therefore, in terms of investment, Zhang Xiaoshan naturally favored Li Mochou.

Li Mochou was not only exceptionally talented, but unlike Huang Rong, she was also extremely passionate about martial arts.

"I've met the young master!"

Looking at the stunningly beautiful Taoist nun in her simple white robe, Zhang Xiaoshan was immediately impressed and casually picked up a piece of ancient cold jade from the table.

"This is a ten-thousand-year-old cold jade sent from the New World. It can accelerate the cultivation of the Nine Yin Body Technique, and contains pure, extremely yin and cold true qi."

This token from the Blood Droplet is also prepared for you.

Master Xingyin has broken through to the Grandmaster level. With his strength, he can command the entire Blood Droplets. Therefore, one of the four commanders needs to be replaced.

Therefore, I plan to have you supplement your skills, so that while you hone your martial arts, you can also rapidly improve through combat!

"The commander of the Flying Guillotine?"

Upon hearing that Zhang Xiaoshan intended to demote her, Li Mochou became serious.

The Zhang family's Blood Droplets are a force feared throughout the entire Nine Provinces, so Li Mochou isn't particularly opposed to this.

Because she was not one to settle for a peaceful life, killing was the best way for her to increase her strength.

Here, she felt like a caged canary.

Huang Rong is the empress; Master Mingchen is a Buddhist monk; Liu Sheng Piaoxu is a warrior; Murong Jiu studies the art of ghost medicine; Hongxiao Jiangxue is Zhang Xiaoshan's personal maid, attending to his daily needs...

She was the only one here, seemingly doing nothing but cultivating.

She preferred killing to cultivating herself.

"Is my strength sufficient?"

Even if Li Mochou didn't know the strength of the four commanders, based solely on Xingyin's previous strength—before joining the Blood Droplets—she was already at the pinnacle of skill.

"Has the Taoist priest seen many masters in the Zhang family and is he somewhat insecure?"

In reality, the Blood Droplets don't have that many top-tier masters. For example, when the Taoist priest was in the martial arts world, he traveled all over the north and south and rarely encountered top-tier masters.

Moreover, the Nine Yin Manual is so powerful that even a martial arts master at the pinnacle of their skill might not be able to defeat the Taoist priest!

Upon hearing this, Li Mochou immediately realized that she had been overthinking things.

She had seen many masters in the Zhang family, such as Master Mingchen, Liusheng Piaoxu, Huang Rong, and Murong Jiu, all of whom were peerless experts. Even the four maids had broken through to the eighth level of the realm one after another.

Undoubtedly, she is currently the one with the lowest cultivation level in the courtyard, so she is naturally worried about her insufficient strength.

However, compared to the masters in the martial arts world, and compared to her previous strength, it was a world of difference.

Therefore, why couldn't he become the leader of the Flying Guillotine?

"Mo Chou knows!"

"In addition, this is a short sword that can cut through iron like mud. It was brought from the Western Regions this time. You can hide it in the duster for self-defense."

"Thank you for your concern, young master!"

Whether it was a piece of ancient, cold jade or a short sword, it brought a warm feeling to Li Mochou's heart.

Even though she was arrogant and considered herself a favored daughter of heaven, after being in the Zhang family for so long, she knew Zhang Xiaoshan's background and talent. She had no regrets about becoming a vassal's canary.

"Taoist Master, please make preparations in the next few days. Master Xingyin will be coming over in a few days. You can then go to the Blood Droplet base with Master Xingyin."

Sending Li Mochou into the Flying Guillotine was also a result of Zhang Xiaoshan's careful consideration.

Li Mochou's strength is sufficient to make her the leader of the Blood Droplets, and her ruthless personality is also suitable for training in a place like the Blood Droplets.

After seeing Li Mochou off, Zhang Xiaoshan took out the Dragon Vein he had brought out earlier.

At first, he thought this thing wasn't the dragon vein in the story, but just a section of spine strengthened by the power of meteorite copper.

However, according to Donghuang Taiyi and Xuan Nu, this thing should have been formed by attracting and absorbing the dragon energy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which can be considered a simplified 2.0 version of the Fengyun Dragon Vein.

Even so, a dragon vein strengthened by 50,000 merits would still possess earth-shattering power!

By grasping the dragon vein, Zhang Xiaoshan could feel a power similar to a dragon ball.

However, the Dragon Balls absorbed the power of the Changbai Mountain dragon vein and the national fortune of the Great Jin Kingdom. In addition, they were made of meteorite copper, making them even purer, and they were auxiliary items.

But dragon veins are different; they belong entirely to the category of divine weapons.

In terms of power, it far surpasses the Xuan Turtle Spirit Shell enhanced by 80,000 merits.

Three days later, Xingyin brought the Divine Blade Slash sword technique and took away Li Mochou, the leader of the Blood Droplets.

Xingyin was extremely pleased with this.

After all, Li Mochou was a high-ranking member of the Zhang family, ruthless and capable, and fully qualified to serve as the leader of the Blood Droplets.

After he stepped down and took charge of the entire Blood Droplets, he had more free time and could study the Tathagata Palm more!

As for the backlash inside the blood-dripping device?

The domineering power of the Nine Yin Manual, coupled with Li Mochou's recent progress, has led to a rapid advancement in her martial arts. She is no longer one of those novice martial artists who possess internal strength but lack the means to defeat their enemies.

The Ice Soul Silver Needle alone far surpassed Yingxue's ambition to seize the leadership position.

Chapter 461 The Imperial Son-in-Law?

"Magic Sword Cut!"

The moment the scimitar is drawn, even ghosts and gods are terrified!

This is the ultimate martial art of the Demonic Sect, for which the Zhang family paid the price of the Eight Dragon-Slaying Techniques.

Compared to the unparalleled power of the Crescent Moon Saber, the Dragon Slaying Saber Technique, though consisting of only eight forms, exhausts the domineering nature of saber techniques, surpassing even the Crescent Moon Saber in terms of ferocity. However, to unleash the unparalleled ferocity of this saber technique, one must first possess formidable internal strength; at least a top-tier master is required to even begin to understand it.

Moreover, a ten-zhang blade aura requires at least a peerless master, or even a grandmaster, to wield without the Dragon-Slaying Saber.

Unlike the Crescent Moon Saber, which emphasizes artistic conception, this is a comprehensive sword technique that combines strength, speed, and experience.

Coupled with Bai Feifei's intelligence and ruthlessness, the Divine Blade Slash is extremely suitable for her to cultivate.

This is also why Zhang Xiaoshan taught this martial art to Bai Feifei as the Blood Jade Curved Saber Technique.

The Blood Jade Scimitar is even more malevolent than the Crescent Moon Scimitar.

Especially since this knife is also a magical jade, the relationship between the person and the knife is even closer.

Therefore, not just anyone can wield this knife.

Fortunately, Bai Feifei's internal energy was already close to the peak of the eighth level. Coupled with the gentle nature of the Taoist mental cultivation method and her occasional joint practice with Zhang Xiaoshan, she didn't have to worry about being backlashed by the demonic blade.

"Young master, Princess Taiping's maid just came by and invited you to a gathering at Yingbin Tower!"

"Princess Taiping has emerged from seclusion?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan immediately thought of Princess Taiping, who had been extremely clingy for a while, like a little girl in love.

Princess Taiping has achieved a breakthrough in her 19th level of perception and has been in seclusion for more than half a month.

Moreover, the period of intense infatuation and relaxation beforehand had greatly accelerated the fusion of Princess Taiping's mind and the Queen Mother of the West's.

Therefore, Princess Taiping's emergence from seclusion this time likely indicates a significant improvement in her strength, and she may even have directly entered the peerless realm, stepping into the realm of "Evil King" and "Empress of Darkness".

"Floating catkins, this is the Demonic Sect's ultimate technique, Divine Blade Slash."

Although this is a Central Plains sword technique, it is derived from the legendary skills of the Divine Sword Sect, surpassing its predecessor.

Your martial arts skills have reached a bottleneck. Try studying this demonic blade; perhaps you can create your own divine blade strike.
