Martial Arts, the Little Master of the Ancient Tomb, Becomes Stronger When You Drink

33: Chapter 33: Integration of the Jade Flute Sword TechniqueSu Xuan heard a crisp crack from his Dantian.

Immediately after, a current of Qi surged from his body and diffused in all directions.

Huang Rong was startled. A Breakthrough?!

A Xuan, do you always Cultivate like this normally?

Su Xuan opened his eyes, a sharp light flashing within them.

He had actually increased his Internal Energy by nearly ten years directly.

High-grade wine truly is the way to go!

A single thousand-year-old snow lotus was more effective than fifteen hundred-year-old medicinal herbs combined.

This is simply a cow flying on a plane—utterly awesome!

Su Xuan hadn’t even recovered from his joy yet.

He saw Huang Rong approach him with her beautiful brows furrowed, taking his hand.

A flicker of confusion crossed Su Xuan’s eyes as he asked with a smile, ”What’s wrong?”

Huang Rong rolled her eyes and ignored him. A gentle Internal Energy began to swirl around her hand as she probed into Su Xuan’s body.

As soon as she began her investigation, Huang Rong’s mouth dropped open in surprise.

His Meridians were actually so thick!

It was simply abnormal!

They were at least ten times larger than a normal person’s!

After investigating for a moment, Huang Rong withdrew her Internal Energy and breathed a sigh of relief. ”Fortunately, you’re fine.”

Aside from the thick Meridians, his Internal Energy was exceptionally pure and stable, showing no signs of instability.

It seemed that A Xuan’s method of Cultivation just now did not harm his body.

Su Xuan smiled and shook his head, his heart warming as he pulled Huang Rong into his arms. ”How could anything happen to me? Rest easy, don’t worry. I won’t do anything that harms my body.”

Huang Rong snuggled into Su Xuan’s embrace, her pretty face nuzzling against his chest with affection.

”That’s good then. Ronger can ignore anything else, but you’re not allowed to do things that hurt yourself.”

”Yes, yes, yes. This husband will listen to Ronger.”

”Go away, I haven’t even married you yet!”

”Hahaha...”

The two of them chatted back and forth like that.

As they spoke, Su Xuan suddenly thought of something. He looked down at Huang Rong in his arms and asked, ”Ronger, does your Peach Blossom Island have a sword technique called the Jade Flute Sword Technique?”

When he was eight years old, Su Xuan had fused the Jade Maiden Sword Technique and the Quanzhen Sword Technique to create the Profound Sword Art.

However, he hadn’t practiced any new sword techniques since then, nor had he tried to see if he could fuse others.

He could use this opportunity to give it a try.

If it worked, perhaps the Profound Sword Art really had a chance to surpass the threshold of a Sect-Guarding Martial Art and reach a new Domain.

Huang Rong looked up and blinked. ”That’s right. Does A Xuan want to learn it? Ronger will teach you!”

”Sure! But since you’re injured right now, don’t demonstrate it for me. Just draw it out.”

”Mm, okay.”

Huang Rong thought for a moment, picked up a wooden stick from the ground, and began to sketch on the floor.

Su Xuan also looked over.

As Huang Rong drew each style, Su Xuan memorized it.

In about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Su Xuan had memorized all the Moves of the Jade Flute Sword Technique in his mind.

”Ronger, I’ll practice it for you once. Help me by giving some pointers.”

”Mm-hmm.”

Su Xuan leaped out, and the xuantian sword naturally fell into his hand.

The first Move of the Jade Flute Sword Technique surfaced in Su Xuan’s mind.

”Xiao Shi Riding a Dragon!”

The xuantian sword lunged out rapidly. His sword speed was so fast that several afterimages appeared in the air.

It was as if Su Xuan wasn’t facing thin air, but a living person.

Every strike landed precisely on that person’s acupoints.

Each Move was laden with killing intent, making it impossible to guard against.

”Second Move, Pure Sound Beyond the Mountains!”

This was a parrying Move that could provide oneself with a ’Pure Sound’ state, serving as a setup for the third Move.

”Third Move, Golden Sound and Jade Vibration...”

As Su Xuan practiced, the Jade Flute Sword Technique became visibly more proficient in his hands.

It soon broke through to the Entry Level.

A flash of surprise crossed Huang Rong’s eyes; she didn’t know how many times she had been shocked today.

This progress is way too fast!

It hasn’t even been half the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

My little husband is just too monstrous...

*Shua shua shua shua*

Inside the cave, sword shadows flickered and sword Moves were endless.

Just then, a flash of light suddenly emerged in Su Xuan’s mind.

*Shua*

The sword Moves suddenly shifted.

Profound Sword Art.

Huang Rong’s gaze was drawn over. Just as she was about to speak and offer a reminder, she suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Isn’t this the sword technique A Xuan used before?

The more Huang Rong watched, the deeper her brow furrowed.

The swordplay felt somewhat different from before.

Yes! It was definitely different!

Huang Rong’s beautiful eyes suddenly widened as she looked at Su Xuan practicing the sword in disbelief.

Is A Xuan fusing the Jade Flute Sword Technique with his previous sword technique!?

This...

The shock in Huang Rong’s heart was beyond words.

As the ultimate technique of Pharmacist Huang, one of the Five Greats of the Great Song, the Jade Flute Sword Technique wasn’t as famous as the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms or the Toad Style.

But it was still a genuine Sect-Guarding Martial Art.

Judging by its power, A Xuan’s previous sword technique was definitely in the rank of Sect-Guarding Martial Arts as well.

Fusing two Sect-Guarding Martial Arts in the time it takes half an incense stick to burn...

Huang Rong didn’t know what to say anymore.

In all her years, this was the first time she had ever seen such a thing.

On Su Xuan’s side, his left foot suddenly stepped forward in a lunge as he swung his sword.

*Shua*

A terrifying Sword Qi whistled out, slashing toward the cave entrance at extreme speed.

*Boom—*

He didn’t know what it hit, but the terrifying power could be heard clearly even from within the cave.

As Su Xuan sheathed the xuantian sword, the heavenly voice rang in his ears once more.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host. ’Jade Flute Sword Technique’ has broken through to the Entry Level.]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host. ’Jade Flute Sword Technique’ and ’Profound Sword Art’ have been successfully fused.]

Hearing the voice in his ear, the corners of Su Xuan’s mouth curled up slightly.

It really worked.

He just didn’t know what level the Profound Sword Art had reached.

He pulled up his status panel.

[Name: Su Xuan]

[Age: Eighteen]

[Cultivation: Peak Grandmaster]

[Martial Skills: Profound Sword Art (Sect-Guarding Martial Art) - Peak Mastery, Jade Maiden Sword Technique - Peak Mastery, Quanzhen Sword Technique - Peak Mastery, Jade Maiden Heart Sutra Swordplay - Major Achievement, Beauty Fist Technique - Peak Mastery...]

[system space: purple gold jade gourd, wheat, sweet potatoes, quilts, Dudou...]

Even with such a huge increase in power, it’s still a Sect-Guarding Martial Art?!

It seems surpassing the Sect-Guarding grade is indeed not simple.

After all, the Profound Art had already fused three Sect-Guarding grade techniques and still hadn’t leveled up.

Coming back to his senses, Su Xuan stepped toward Huang Rong.

Walking to her side, he saw that Huang Rong was still drawing something on the ground.

Su Xuan asked curiously, ”Ronger, what are you drawing?”

Huang Rong replied casually without thinking, ”Dog Beating Staff Technique.”

”Dog Beating Staff Technique?!” A flash of shock appeared in Su Xuan’s eyes. ”Doesn’t your Beggars Sect keep that strictly secret?”

Huang Rong looked up slightly, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. ”If I don’t say anything and you don’t say anything, who will know?”

Seeing Huang Rong’s wicked smile, Su Xuan couldn’t help but laugh. ”You’re really something!”

Huang Rong’s beautiful eyes shifted as she said, ”I saw just now that A Xuan’s Fusion of his swordplay and the Jade Flute Sword Technique doesn’t seem to require a Mind-Cultivation Technique, only the Moves.”

”So I’ll only teach you the Moves and not the Mind-Cultivation Technique. That way, I’m not technically violating the sect rules.”

As she spoke, Huang Rong paused for a few seconds and blinked at Su Xuan.

”Besides, doesn’t A Xuan want to see how powerful it would be if this swordplay and staff technique were fused?”
