Through his conversation with the Yu Family over the past two days as well as his private reading of the Kato Hawk's small booklet, Shi Ziling had a general understanding of the so-called profound inner force skills that the experts of the Bright Moon Continent possessed. Although the moves and techniques were important, everyone seemed to value the cultivation of inner force skills more.

"The fiery hot energy that occasionally flows in my body is probably also one of the inner force skills." As Shi Ziling thought of this, he chose a book to cultivate his internal energy and began to read.

The book in his hands recorded that the Yu Family's internal energy cultivation method originated from the Daoist Sect of Three Purities. The ancestor of the Yu Family was a common disciple under the Hua Mountain Branch of the Three Purities Sect. This ancient book contained the beginner cultivation technique of the Three Pure Ones Sect. Its name was the 'True Essence Revolving Technique', and it was one of the lessons that disciples of the Three Pure Ones Sect had to learn.

This cultivation technique was easy to learn. Under long term practice, it was able to strengthen the body and strengthen the body. Starting from the most basic breathing exercise, it was equipped with a diagram that covered all the human body's meridians and acupoints. It was simple and straightforward.

Shi Ziling skimmed through the book roughly and felt extremely happy. He secretly thought that the heat that appeared in his body from time to time was undoubtedly the so-called True Essence. Just as he was about to continue reading, Yu Dafu pushed open the door and entered.

Yu Dafu smiled and said to Shi Ziling, "Ziling, I've asked the lord. The lord said that these ancient books are only basic techniques and aren't very useful. If you're interested, you can take them and read them. If it's not because these are ancestral heirlooms, there's no harm in giving them to you. "

Shi Ziling was overjoyed and said, "Then I truly have to thank you. Before we head to Pine Lake City in three days, I will definitely return it."

Yu Dafu smiled and said, "It's fine, it's fine. Just take these books and read them." "You're really strange, these are all the rudimentary skills of the Yu Family. This expert is actually quite interested in you."

Shi Ziling thought to himself that he was actually a "master" that was far too strange. He couldn't even remember the most basic entry-level cultivation technique, and now that he had this opportunity, he wanted to learn it from the beginning. He wanted to see if he could recover some of his lost memories.

He took the True Essence Manipulation Technique and also the fist manual and a sword manual. As for the rest, he didn't use any of his blade techniques, acupuncture techniques, or archery techniques. He didn't think that he would be able to read that much in a short period of time.

Just as he was about to return to his room, Yu Dafu called out to him and asked, "Ziling, have you not chosen your weapon yet?"

Shi Ziling was stunned for a moment. He then remembered that he was here to pick out weapons. He hurriedly put the three books into his bosom and walked to the chest that held the swords and picked up the swords.

However, he thought of returning to his room earlier to read his book, so he did not pay much attention to the selection of swords. After taking a few glances, he saw an ancient looking short sword that looked rather pleasing to the eye, so he casually picked it up.

This sword was shorter than an ordinary three-foot long sword. On the hilt of the sword, there were two small words: "Icebreaking". Shi Ziling pulled out his sword to take a look. He saw that the blade was also narrower and thinner than an ordinary sword. Although there was nothing out of the ordinary about it, it still felt pretty good when he touched it.

Shi Ziling was too lazy to be picky. He did not understand a sword's quality, so he turned to Yu Dafu and asked, "Chief Butler, I want this sword, is it okay?"

Of course, Yu Dafu said it all out loud. Thus, Shi Ziling took the Ice Breaking Sword and thanked Butler Yu before returning to his room.

After returning to his room, Shi Ziling placed the Ice Breaking Sword on the table and took out the three Yu Family secret manuals.

He thought for a moment and decided that he should first read the True Essence Circulation Technique manual. The content of this book wasn't much, and it was also simple to understand. Shi Ziling quickly finished reading it and began to practice what he had read in the book.

The so-called circulation of true essence was first, of course, to accumulate true essence bit by bit within one's dantian until it reached a certain point. Only then would it move according to the specified route in one's body's meridians.

According to the book, it would take at least a year of practice to accumulate true essence within the Dantian until it was strong enough to circulate within the body. Shi Ziling regulated his breathing according to the law, but he quickly circulated the heat in his body. However, it was different from what was written in the book. It was difficult for the heat in his body to accumulate in his Dantian for long periods of time.

After practicing by law, the warm flow of heat that was surging within his body quickly accumulated and took shape within the Shan Zhong Acupuncture Point. At the same time, he felt a strong desire to give it a try. Shi Ziling did not think too much and immediately tried to circulate his meridians according to the diagram in the book.

After an unknown amount of time, Shi Ziling slowly stood up. He was extremely happy in his heart. He could already confirm that the powerful heat in his body was true essence. He must have cultivated in the past and worked hard for many years. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such powerful Quintessential Essence.

According to this ancient book, if one wanted to use true essence to travel through the meridians of the entire body without any stagnation, they would have to practice for several years or even more than a dozen years. Moreover, they would have to practice a higher level cultivation method.

This book talked about the most basic aspects of true essence circulation. No matter how much an ordinary person cultivated in accordance with the law, they would only be able to build up their foundation to be more stable and profound. If he were to use it on martial skill moves, although it could increase its power, if he wanted to break through the layers of natural obstruction in his meridians and reach the state where he could do as he pleased, he would first need to gradually strengthen his true essence.

However, Shi Ziling truly did it just now. From head to toe, he tried to practice the true essence circulation route indicated in the ancient book. Now he could easily control the true essence in his body to pass through any meridian, be it his fingers, toes, or even hair. As long as he willed it, his true essence would immediately concentrate within.

Of course, this was not because he had practiced the 'True Essence circulation method', but because he already had this ability.

This book only clearly explained the basic principle of true essence circulation. However, it was completely reasonable, as the true essence in Shi Ziling's body seemed to be far stronger than the realm described in the book. The levels that were difficult to reach or even impossible to achieve were all easily achieved by him just now.

For a time, Shi Ziling was extremely excited. According to the book, a deep layer of true essence was the foundation for all martial skills to display their might. Right now, he could already control the powerful true essence in his body with his heart. If he combined it with an appropriate martial skill, he could probably protect himself. As he thought of this, Shi Ziling once again cast his gaze towards the fist and sword manual on the table.

In the next few days, Shi Ziling wholeheartedly devoted himself to the study of the Yu Family's martial arts manuals. The martial arts manuals of the Yu Family were not profound, but they were the primary basic techniques of the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

For Shi Ziling, these books were like the keys to unlocking treasures. Every time he performed this technique, it would trigger his inspiration. Every time Shi Ziling used this technique, he would automatically think of the moves and changes that were not in the book. It was as if he had been studying this technique for many years.

Shi Ziling was astonished as well as convinced that he had worked hard in martial arts before. If he wanted to recover his memories in the future, perhaps he could find some clues related to the martial arts aspect.

However, he did not dare to recall too much of the past because every time he tried to recall the memories he had lost, he would still feel a splitting headache, and when it was serious, his entire body would be powerless, unable to recover for a long time.

Fortunately, every time he held onto the "Death Evil Night Token", the pain would lessen a little so that he wouldn't faint. But even so, it did not allow him to recover the memories he had lost.

Even when it came to martial arts, Shi Ziling did not dare to deliberately think about the past. He only wanted to use the Yu Family's ancient texts to embody some of the changes he thought were feasible. As for how powerful they were, Shi Ziling did not know.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. It was the day that the Yu Family escorted the wedding gift to Pine Lake City. Not only did Shi Ziling return the first three martial arts manuals to Yu Dafu, he even took the time to read through the remaining books in the armory, feeling that he had gained a lot.

Yu Dafu wasn't surprised at all that Shi Ziling had read so many martial arts manuals in the past three days. In his opinion, since Shi Ziling was able to defeat the number one expert of the Pan An County, then how could these books that recorded the Yu family's superficial entry level of martial arts be in his eyes? Shi Ziling was probably just browsing through them because he had nothing better to do.

This time, Master Yu's eldest son, Yu Zhengtian, and his eldest grandson, Yu Deping, were in the lead. With more than twenty bodyguards, Niu Zhengying and Shi Ziling were among them.

Before leaving, Master Yu specially pulled Niu Zhengying and Shi Ziling into his room and reminded them, "Aside from some local specialties and some jade and jewellery, the most important thing this time is a hundred year old crow that I got when I went to the north to do business. According to what Niu Master said, if an expert is about to break through the barrier at the most crucial moment, having this kind of Head of the Guards take it, it will definitely be very helpful. "

"Right now, the situation is unstable and there are a lot of thieves. I was very worried that there would be accidents on the road, so I specifically wanted to recruit a few helpers. Fortunately, a young hero like Ziling helped me, so I was a lot more relieved."

Master Yu continued, "My relative, Lord Chen Gongzhao, is currently on his 50th birthday. Although he is called a relative, he is actually just a distant cousin of my young wife. I am not very familiar with him. It's just that I still have a lot of business in Pine Lake City that he has to take care of, so I have no choice but to curry favor with him. "

"In this world, for someone like Master Chen to be ranked in the top 100 on the Heaven's Punishment Board, and also to be Master Su's right-hand man, there must be a lot of people trying to curry favor with you. Ziling, I have been friends with Teacher Niu for decades, and I can definitely trust his judgement in choosing people. On this trip, I will need to ask you to put in a lot of effort. "

Shi Ziling said solemnly, "Master Yu, don't worry. Shi Ziling will definitely do his best."

Master Yu nodded and said, "That's right, from what Da Fu said, you are very interested in some of the Yu Family's ancestral martial arts manuals. Do you need to watch it for a few more days? Although these are not really secret scriptures, they are still the true heirs to the Three Purities Sect. "Look at me, I'm in my seventies, and I'm not any expert. Everyone says that I look to be in my fifties, haha …"

As Shi Ziling thought about it, Master Yu's complexion was rosy and his figure was tall and straight. Not a single strand of his hair was white. Even though he was thinner than Niu Zhengying, it was impossible to tell that he was an old man in his seventies.

Shi Ziling said, "Master Yu, you must have practiced the True Essence Circulation Technique since you were young. I also feel that although that cultivation technique is easy to learn, it will definitely bring many benefits to the body if you practice it for a long time. In addition, there are some martial arts in the book, which make me feel enlightened. Thank you so much. Right, this Three Purities Sect must be a very famous sect, right? "

"What's there to thank me for?" Master Yu smiled and said, "It would be my honour if this expert of yours could see the superficial skills passed down in our family. As for the Three Purities Sect, alas, I heard that there was a saying a long time ago that the disciples of the Three Purities Sect roamed the world, it is a pity that after the battle with the Demon Sect hundreds of years ago, both of them were injured, and the Three Purities Sect no longer exists. "

Shi Ziling lamented in his heart. These few days, he had been immersed in the Yu Family's martial arts books, and felt that although these were merely the basic techniques for entering the Three Purities Sect, they were grand and square, and seemed to be extremely compatible with what he had learned in the past. It was as if a door to an armory had been opened in his heart, and he might have some connections with the Three Purities Sect. Since the phrase "Three Purities' disciple invades the world" was mentioned, he should pay more attention to it in the future.

At this moment, Master Yu's eldest son, Yu Zhengtian, walked in and informed them that the caravan outside was ready. Master Yu then gave his son a few more instructions before sending everyone out.
